Disbarment Proceedings Be-
 gin Against J. H. Cobb

Juneau, Jan. l4-Just before the clerk of courts office was closed for the day Friday afternoon disbarment pro- ceedingS were commenced against j.. Fl. Cobb of the law firm of MalonY & Cobb. The court entered an order citing Mir. Cobb to appear Feb. 2l and make answer to the charges brought against him.
 The charges are numerous and reflect against Mir. Cobb's professional conduct in cases in which he has appeared. Prominent among the charges are those filled by the International Trust com pauy of Boston, which state that in 1903 he was employed by them to toreclose 8 mortgage on the American Gold Mining company's properties. The charges allege that he entered into and carried out arrangements whereby the Alaska Juneau company was allowed to acquire title to the Aurora lode and the pro- ceediugs of the sale amounting to SlS.- OJO were diverted and invested in Der ners Bay receivers certificates without the knowledge and consent of the Trust company. It is alleged that he omitted from the foreclosure proceedings cer- tain town lots which were covered by the mortgage and which were claimed by F. D. Nowell personally.
 Other charges are brought by Her man Meyer, an employe of Carsten Bros. of Seattle. Ia them he is ac- cused of uDlawfully appropriating S2,- 500 from the registry of the court and for which he has made no accounting.
 Mir. Cobb planes the law firm of Shsckleiord X Lyons for the beginning of the proceedings against him. He says they are his personal and profes- sional enemies. He accuses them of bad faith in bringing the proceedings against him now four years after some of the alleged facts upon which they base their accusations trsnspired. He says he will he able to demonstrate the falsity of the charges against him.

MY MOSS MONKEY.

Dear IAttle Men and Little Women: Last win
/ the proud possessor of a small fairly
tame monkey, and | think some of the
readers may be interested in few Of his ad-
ventures He was of a very inquisitiVe. well
as original. Of mind. and those character
istics frequently led him into trouble. On the first
day he arrived when l, with many qualms. took
him on an exploring expedition around the house
he seized the awning string that dangled tempt
ingly by the front door. climbed 10 the awning
far above my head and speedily forgot how 20
come down again. After about hour of
ing and frequent pulling at the chain which he
was fastened to he saw the awning string again
and came rushing down head foremost. eager for
more exciting adventures.
He had a large parrot cage in which he slept
and spent most Of his leisure time also. The whole
bottom Of this came out for cleaning, and there
was small door in the side of the cage for the
monkey himself to go out. One day when
out he managed to open this door and walked
calmly out; when my sister, who was quite
afraid of the poor monk, saw him. she hastily re-
moved all the brica brac, shut the doors and left
him When I returned he was perched on top of
screen, evidently rather scared and quite sub
dued.
You see" I said 'how easy it is to catch him.
And removed the bottom, plunging the rest OF the
cage directly over the monkey But. alack! l had

One of the autumn models shows interesting
example of a dressy tailored costume; the high
collar and long. close sleeves on the coat make it
look quite unlike anything for several seasons
The color is pinksh tan. both cloth and velvet are

a high turnover collar of black satin. The sleeves
are rather small gigot with turn-up satin cuffs at
the wrists.
SLEEVES FOR THE FALL
There is considerable speculation as to sleeves
the coming season For certain kinds of costumes
the draped sleeves, large armholes and certain
modification of the japanese sleeve will continue
The fashion is too pretty. graceful and too much
liked to be soon abandoned. Indeed the win
ter models, which to be seen now. are entirely
on these lines. However. it is believed that many
coats and gowns will be made with long sleeves,
and in these cases the sleeves will be moderate in
size. If large hats continue to be worn, and the
milliners declare that they will be larger in
the autumn than they now, sleeves will have
to be built with reference to them and this would
mean that they must be either very large or very
small The close sleeve offsets the size of the hat
and the very large draped sleeve harmOnizes with
tit is the that is impossible.
A correspondent from TrCuville writes that the
remarkable items in the season the flower
trimmed hats and the hand painted gauzes. in
which flowers AGAIN. appear One pretty model in
the millinery described has strings of velvet ribbon
coming from the sides of the hat brim and tied
loosely behind. The flowers covering the hat brim
are carried little way down the strings. Morn
ing gores and the wild lseron are the most popu-
lar hat trimmings. The white liseron is lovely on
colored straws. and every possible color combina-
ttion is carried out in morning gores While guam
titles of flowers thrown the hat brim. they
are not tightly sewed the idea is that they must
trembe and move little, and this effect is par
ticulary good In morning glories and flowers with
slender stems
