Owner Finds Stolen Horses.

&. G. Cramer, n Lassen county, Cal.
stockman, was in Fallon Thursday
clearing up a legal tangle, in which
four valuable horses belonging to him,
figured as the prize contended for.
Early last September these horses, all
work animals, were stolen from his
pasture at his home near Susanyille
Mr.. Cramer ut once took up the mat
ter and succeeded in tracing them to
this county Since coming here he
learned OF the transfer of the animals
TO George Pike deceased who in turn
sold them to William Waters, of Fair
view. The bill OF sale was signed by
Jack Harris, but the description given
Mr.. Cramer by parties, who became ae-
quainted, led him to believe that he is
none other than n certain Socrates
Harrison, who is a member OF a band of
horse thieves, who have operated in
Lassen county for a number of years.
Upon his arrival here, Mr.. Cramer at
once succeeded in identifying his prop
erty and getting possession OF them, and
after proving his ownership, he sold
them TO local parties for 500.
Should Harrison ever return to Las
sen county, he will be promptly arrested
and tried upon the charge of horse
stealing, and inasmuch as Mr.. Cramer
has direct evidence as to his guilt, his
conviction will speedily follow.

An, other way is to build about an old fireplace, to build she'ves and cubby- holes above it, so as to hide as many bad points as possible. One of the Il, lustrations shows a fireplace treated in this way; and any one can see WnaS an improvement such a thing would be on an old-fashioned mantelpiece.
 One ugly old mantelpiece or plack marble, that l have seen, was painted filled in on either side and painted to match. No one could possibly guess that the fireplace was not wood; un- less they felt it, and then the haro' cold feel of the marble gave 1t away.
 If we cannot spend any money on improving our fireplace. we must make the most of it by covering 1t I'D with mantel boarder and ar ranging the mantelpiece carefully One of the illustrations shows an ugly marble mantel treated In thlS way. An old curtain has been folded up and put on 1t. which hangs down about a foot. Good. simple steel and irons are in the grate, While the orna- nents on the mantelpiece are careful in chosen and arranged without too 19uch uniformity, but still not untidy
 We must be careful, however. not to cover up a mantel that is really good. eEch as the old Colonial mantelpece shown These can be found in many of inc old homes today, and nothing could be more stately or more beauti- fui Nothing should be done to such mantelpiece, except put few suitable ornaments on the shelfS A; g..

known Halloween tricks.
 Halloween supper for a large party should be served at a number of small tables, each seating four or six persons. In the centre of each table Is mystery plea big, flat pan, which contains suit able favors for everybody, and then Is filled with yellow tissue paper, to give the appearance of pumpkin pie.
 These favors may be stickpins in the form of wishbones. clover leaves, cats. elephants tsaid to be symbol of good luck in some Eastern countries) brooms ornaments. penwpers or bookmarks. where the cost is to be considered. The principle is to have the gifts suggestive of Halloween; and they may be simple. but they must be ingenious.
 A big black cat, cloth or papier-mache, should occupy. the centre of each pie: paper. with green ribbons. the ends of which run to the several places, and are there attached to supper cards corre- spending with those drawn at the door.
 suitable menu consists, first, of witch's broth This means ordiiary bouillon served in tiny pots, suspend ed from small tripods. These tripods, which are more effective if made from gnarled tWigs. can be kept in place by fastening the feet to wooden plates With small tacks. or to china plates with melted wax.
 Next should come oyster pates. with the pate cups set into tiny half pumpkin shells. and rolls baked in the form of crescents. Then a chestnut salad served in scooped-out apples or other salads in half pumpkins or pol ished eggplant shells, and sandwiches of many kinds. cut into fancy shapes.
 Pumpkin tarts. little cakes baked in Wishbone, clover leaf or horseshoe shapes, crullers and cider are part of all Halloween entertainments. A de- lightful way of serving ices Is to get large oranges, scoop out the pulp. cut a jack lantern face on the side and fill with orange ice.
 The mystery cake, which contains rings, thimbles and money. must not be forgotten, and a crowning touch may be given to the feast by serving coffee which has not been poured through a strainer The grounds left in the bottom of the cup will furnish the drinkers life history to a clever

T HE fireplace. which spe k s

 ity, necessarily occupies a very
 prominent position in living room. It is. therefore. very important to have 1t of good construction and design, so that it can be the keynote for the style of the rest of the room. There has been marked improvement in the tireplaces of the last few years. both from a practical and artistic standpoint, and the old black marble ones are practically thing of the past.
 A great many frcplaces, particularly the English ones are inglenooks with large seats built on either side. This makes most imposing room Many of the modern frepiaces are built without a mantel shelf, some have hood instead. while others have nothing but the smooth facing of the hearth. Other tireplaces are built with innumerable shelves and cubby holes for books and ornaments and these, if tastefully arranged, are cozy and attractive

 The cards themselves - division cards and all-are not more than three inches long, and preserve the same proportions as the usual cards do.

 Your brim being arranged in one of the above ways, 1t must be sewed to the round bandeau, which. in small size. has already been fashioned to At your head. Now put your crown in place: this has no wire support, but depends upon a lining of thinnest cape net.
 To make a silk or velvet crown will require a yard on the straight of good- width material. It is best to leave this in it's square shape until you try the ef feet by pinning it on with bunch of pleats in front and slight gathering at the sides and back, the size depend ing upon the brim.
 After cutting off all superfiuous edges, you will find that your crown describes sort of oblong piece. Cut your cape net in exactly the same size; gather both Eieces at the same time close to the edge. and. finally. tack it on to the round bandeau.
 A velvet crown is prettiest tucked, like the dark hat pictured. It is then mount ed in the same way.
 Tulle is arranged quite differently A small tam-o' -shanter crown of cape net Is fastened to the bandeau, and then four yards of very fine tulle are closely folded over it, around and around. with elaborately studied care- lessness. A pale blue velvet brim. with feather and tulle to match, a narrow silver ribbon encircling the crown, made the exquisite combina ton strongly suggesting moonlinght-in the model pictured.
 These hats are even more simple to make than to describe, the point at
