CHRISTMAS TIMES IN THE BIG CITY.
The rush for Christmas presents be
gins Immediately after Thanksgiving,
and people who would under other Cir
cumstances scorn to carry a package,
are fain to clasp their treasur es closely
and fight for room in the already over
crowded street cars. Be it whispered
that everybody in New York cannot af-
ford a cab. Amid "the thousand and
one" alluring trides that arrest atten-
ton, perfumery is always safe choice,
and the judicious purchaser selects a
bottle or box of Murray & Lanman's
Florida water, which has borne the
test of time as favorite with dis
eliminating women, and goes home
with a peaceful mind, satisfied with
her shopping.
HAIR DRESSING.
The pompadour roll is still in the
lead, but women of taste mitigate its
severity by slanting puffs over the fore
head, soft loops, the figure eight in the
back, and short or long curls. Hair,
ornaments were never more beautiful,
sparkling with Rhinestone dew-drops
literally sprinkled on large roses or
tiaras of small flowers. Velvet bands
twisted into graceful shapes are also
dotted with sparks, and airgrettes, os-
trich and marabout clusters are also
tipped with brilliants. Flowers are used
in profusion on lace berthas for evening
wear; a large cluster, perchance of roses,
orchids, clematis or wisteria, on one
shoulder, and dropping to the waist the
now slender wreath is carried up to the
other shoulder.

lCorrespondence of The JournaLl
The Jumper waist is a god-send to
the woman of moderate means, and
now that plated shirt devoid of trim
ming (but of similar materially has been
added, beauty and utility have joined
hands. All the delicacy and freshness
of the lingerie waist exists in the
dainty lace yoke and sleeves, the latter
being constructed on individual taste,
or the resources of the wearer. very
light shades of silk. broadcloth and
even panne velvet are made up INTO
evening dresses of this style for home
or theatre wear, but there the line is
drawn, the Jumper dress must not
appear at ball or full dress reception.
AS indicated in previous letter, con-
trasting embroidery is the leading
trimming.
EVENING DRESSES.
These include a long list of lace
robes, spangled robes, hand-palnted
chiffon, combinations of crepe-de-chlne
and chiffon, fancy silks or nets covered
with embroidery, and over elaboration
is carried to such an extent, that a
dress of simple material, simply made,
is positively refreshing. Among a col
lection of evening gowns shown by a
prominent house, were two of white
dotted net over silky lining. The
skirt of one was plain to about t1ounce
depth, then there were three scant
puffs of net, each finished by PLAIN
net ruff1e Narrow blue ribbon was
run in each puff and a few wired bows
of the same ribbon were fastened to
the skirt quite distance apart. The
waist was low neck, with plain net
gathered at the front, and bretelles
graced the shoulders, formed of one
scant puff edged by single net rutfle.
Blue ribbon narrow was laced across
the front, and the sleeves were in keep
ing with skirt and waist.

nized as hotel man of more than or

of the King Edward and will be as
sisted by George w. Boale in charge
of the desk and p. E. Helmer as night
clerk.
The Hotel King Edward will be op-
Grated on first-class lines and. as 1t
possesses all the essentials in the way
of up-to-date equipment and is on the
route of all depot cars, it promises to
gain wide popularity.
The name of the new hotel was sug-
gested by r. A. Rowan, who was in
terested in the building of the Alex
andra. and the proprletors were quick
to adopt the name, realizing it's value,
inasmuch as it Is easily remembered
and also after taking into considera-
ton the fact that "there is something
in a name" The King Edward has
almost it's full quota of guests, after
being opened only three days, which
speaks eloquently in favor of its APP
pointments and management.

SLASHES THROAT
WITH A KNIFE
GEORGE H. PIERCE COMMITS
SUICIDE WHILE INSANE
Sewers an Artery as Deputy Sheriff
Is Approaching House for the
Purpose OF Taking Him
to County Hospital

Preferring death to confinement In
an asylum, George H. Pierce, 35 years
old and unmarried, committed suicide
yesterday afternoon on the porch of his
brother-in-law's home. 448 East Thir
ty-eighth street, by cutting his throat,
while Deputy Sheriff Yonkin, who had
come to take the young man to the
county hospital, was hurrying up the
walk.
The young man evidently knew the
errand of the officer, for without a
moments hesitation he drew his knife
and with all his strength plunged it
into the left side of the throat sew
ering an artery and causing almost
instant death.
Severed Large Artery
At Pierce Bros morgue last night
it was stated that a large artery had
been severed and that the wound
would have proved fatal even If sur
geon had been close at hand.
Pierce, together with his mother and
sisters, lived with F. e. Peters, his
brother-in-law. The family were away
for the afternoon and Peters was alone
in the house at the time. He hastened
out when he learned of the suicide and
helped to carry the body inside, after
which the police and coroner were
notified. An inquest will be held to-
morrow.
Pierce formerly worked for the West
ern Fish company on South Spring
street. but had been out of employ
ment' for some time. Through finan-
cial worry and possibly because of un-
requited love, the young man began
to show signs of mental arrangement
several weeks ago, and fearing trouble
his friends caused a complaint for in
sanity to be sworn out. Deputy Sher-
iff Yonkin was given the papers for
Pierces commitment to the county
hospital, pending an examination.
The young man had insane delusions
and feared that somebody was trying
to kill him. He also dreaded the pros
pective confinement in an asylum and
acting upon the insane impulse of
the moment, forestalled all legal action.
When Pierce's mother and sisters re-
turned and learned of the tragedy, they
reproached themselves for having left
the young man alone, but 1T is evident
that he had contemplated suicide and
had sharpened his knife for that pur-
pose. and with the skill of madman
cut his throat in precisely the right
spot to cause almost instant death.

BOSSIE MAY BLOW UP!
Connecticut Town Terrorized by Boys
Who Have Been Feeding
Dynamite to Cow
Special to The Herald.

Special to lne Herald.
BRIDGEPORT, Conn, March q
Twenty-eight sticks of specially eX-
plosive No. / dynamite" have been
kicking about the streets of the old
town of Stratford and In the pockets
of some of the towns mischievous
Youngsters have visited some of the
most prominent homes in town during
the last three days.
Twelve sticks of it have been recov-
cred, but Stratfordites are still looking
carefully where they step and wear a
worried expression because there are
still fifteen sticks missing. One stick
has been located, but cannot be re-
covered unless a dairyman makes a
fatal mistake and treats one of his pet
cows without due consideration.
When Deputy Sheriff Stagg took
three 10-year-old boys before Justice of
the Peace Peck, charged with having
broken into storehouse and stolen the
dynamite, disclosures came fast. The
Youngsters, owing to their tender years,
were not sentenced. Instead they were
turned over to their parents after they
had been severely lectured by the JUS
tice, and their fathers were instructed
to get the dynamite out of the young
sters' clothing and then spank them
soundly.
Albert Tint, Earl Pitcher and Joseph
Robstock are the boys. They were on
the way to school in Stratford on Tues
day morning when they concluded to
inspect a small storehouse owned by
Hans Lingell. There they found dy-
Mantle. They stuffed their pockets
with the explosive. taking it to school
with them. At recess they broke open
the sticks and pounded them with
stones, trying to cause an explosion,
but as the stuff was frozen solid,
thanks to the weather, there were no

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful II Is In Pre-
serving Health and Beauty

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disiufectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize it's value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purposes.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
Won take of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out of the system
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and I'M
proves the complexion, 1t whitens the
teeth and further acts as natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfectS the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they
are composed of the finest powdered
willow charcoal, and other harmless
antiseptics in tablet form or rather
in the form of large, pleasant tasting
lozenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The daily use of these lozenges Will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
tion of the general health, better COM
pleXion, sweeter breath and purer
blood, and the beauty of it is, that
no possible harm can result from their
continued use, but. on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician, in speaking of
the benefits of charcoal, says: II ad-
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex
ion and purify the breath, mouth and
throat; I also believe the liver is
greatly benefited by the daily use OF
them; they cost but twenty-five cents
box at drug stores, and although in
/ believe l get more and better char
coal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges
than in any of the ordinary charcoal
tablets" 4-11-1S-25

Place Exceedingly Popular With
the Travelling Public

Americans as a rule are rather lax
when it comes to extending the 'glad
hand" to anything savoring Of royalty,
but Los Angeles has reason to feel
proud of the King Edward, the new
hotel opened during the last week by
the Messrs. Tousley at the corner of
Fifth and Los Angeles streets
This hotel, built upon almost the
same lines as was the Alexandria, and
named the King Edward to convey an
idea as to similarity in style and de-
sign, is an important addition to this
class of establishments in this city,
The building is as near fireproof as
it is possible to make a hotel, and
it's $50 guest rooms, as we'll as the
visiting, reading and lounging rooms,
are furnished in a maner to satisfy
the demands of those who are looking
for solid comfort together with the
luxury that pertains to high priced
hotels at popular rates. The lobby of
the King Edward is especially beauti-
full, the English vein Cascara and
black and gold Egyptian marbles of
which it is built alone costing more
than $4,000.
Under Able Management
The new hotel was built and fur
nished at a cost of $4,000, and is
under long lease by Messrs. r. F. and
H. r. Tousley, both of whom are
well known among the hotel men of
the country. H. r. Tousley was for
years connected with eastern hotels
and also was for a long time in charge
of the Chicago G. Northwestern dining
