AT Kamyshin at o'clock one

prosperous Moscow merchants, and
several sallow individuals with flash

A very strong case is being made out
against Caleb Powers, former repub-
lican secretary of state under Actihg
Gov. w. S. Taylor now a fugitive
from Kentucky, who is being triei
at Georgetown, KY, for compilcitS
in the murder of Gov. William Goe-
bel. The testimony has been most
damaging.
At the same time several of the
witnesses have made statements thas
If they speak the truth, show how
deeply Taylor himself involved in the
black conspiracy.
A. idea of the dark story being
unfolded can be obtained from the
following associated press dispatch
regarding Saturdays session of the
celebrated trial.
Georgetown, KY, Dec. 9-fes
met W. s. Taylor at Barbourville and
he told "Killing men is a thing nor
rible to contemplate, but 1t is one
that is necessitated in this case. VIII
liam Goebel and those other fellows
must be killed or they will take our
Offices away from us and you young
fellows who want to hold office will
go empty-handed. 1t must be done"
All through the day f. Wharton
Golden, OH the stand in the trial of
Caleb Powers, had been leading up
to this climax in his testimony. 1t
had been from the first narrative
of plotting to take the life of the
man contending with Taylor for the
office of Governor of Kentucky He
had told his story with candor and
GOODNESS, but when the question,
did you have conversation with
w. s. Taylor?" came from the states
attorney, the tense atmosphere of the
court room was reflected in his Glen
ching grip upon the arms of the
chair and the twitching mouth as he
framed his answer.
1t was the third act in today's part
of the political drama, and no Bel
asco could have led his character
through the preliminary stages bet
ter. Everyone had known that
Golden would testify against Powers
that in all probability that he would
make the direct charge of conspiracy
against the man on trial. But
would he bring in the bigger figure
in the background. When the point
was passed and he had quoted the
words of the exiled governor as part
of his accusation that Taylor passed
the death sentence on his opponent
there was almost a sigh of relief.

SIMPLICITY IN DRESS
SHOULD BE THE ORDER.

The keynote to good dressing is
simplicity and neatness, rather than
an overlooking of cheap finery. 1t
|. every ones duty to make his per-
sonal appearance as attractive as pos
sible, although great wealth is not
essential to good dressing. 1t is the
small things in woman's dress that
seem to count the most. No matter
how beautiful the gown is that she
wears; If the hands and the hair are
untidy; the whole appearance will be
spoiled.
Soiled collars, skirts dragging be-
low the belts, and petticoats showing
below the skirts will make a girl
most urtidy. These things, no mat
ter how limited ones means may be,
can be prevented by little time and
care. if only she realized the impor-
tance and the difference it would
make in her appearance.
The woman of small means, who
designs her own clothes, is the wo-
man to gain most. There is some
individuality and personality about
her clothes that woman with
wealth who pays her dressmaker by
the year and cares only to follow the
style. does not possess.
be avoided. Some women are always
in exaggeration of the fashion, and
such exaggeration shows a lack of
refinement and good taste.
Judicious selection must be the Sc
cret of good dressing on the part of
the stout woman. She must relig-
iously avoid plaids. and theE there
are the stripes the slender girl should
fight shy of.
The contour of height. hair face
and complexion and style of woman
should be taken into consideration
when selecting materials for gown.
Many a girl has natural artistic abil-
| ity for blending colors and an eye
for outline but they lack a practical
knowledge of putting materials to-
gether.
The pretiest and most attractive
gowns can be made out of very in
expensive materials with the use OF
the many dainty laces and embroid-
cries that are used so much for trim
ming.
Now that there are so many schools
of domestic art and science. almost
every girl who has the ambition can
secure a thorough knowledge OF
these arts.

$4,000 PEOPLE CAN ATTEND
REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION
Wonderful Appointments of the
Great Building in Chicago Where
the Republican Ticket VIII
BE Chosen,

Delegates to the republican nation
al convention will fiLd the Coliseum
in Chicago, the big hall where the
1904 convention was held, improved
and enlarged.
Just as soon as word was received
in Chicago that the national commi-
ttee selected this city for the conven-
tion, engineers and architects were
told to go ahead with plans for alter
ations which had been under consi-
deratioh, and as a result the big
structure will be remodelled so as to
seat $1,000 persons, 5000 more than
the minimum requirements of the
party leaders.
The building is uniqe not only for
its great seating capacity but also for
its great light and ventilation. At
the south end of the Coliseum prop
er is an Annex of two floors, either
one of which is large enough to ac-
comodate all the delegates. The up
per hall of these two has galleries
under the east and west ends, be-
meath which are rooms which may be
used for committee work.
The ordinary seating capacity of
the great main hall is 10000. This
can be increased to 1900 without
overcrowding, but present arrange
ments leave too mucn waste space
beneath the great galleries which in
circle the main floor. IL s propcs-
ed 70 utilize tn si'l.e ythe con-
structicn of ntlginy galleries which
will accommodate 3,9H0 SPECTATORS
This VIII give : greater seating ca
pacity than has been au.p.e AT any
previous convcIt.p'..
The Coliseum is easily accessible
to the street car lines and is within
walking distance of the down town
hotels.
The construction of the building
accounts for its unusual acoustic
properties. Walls and roof of con-
trete and iron minimize vibration
ard Danish the slightest susppicion
of bad air. The Coliseum caa also
be emptied within six minutes.

A nANGEROus DRUG

Is that which most Oculists instill in
to the human eye when testing for
glasses. 1t completely paralizes the
muscles of the eye for the time being
and great many eyes never recover
from its effect.
1t should be impossible for per-
son to wear glass which would
correct all their Hyperopia. SO the
Oculist guesses how much correct
ion the eyes will stand after finding
the error under drops. Sometimes
he guesses right, very often wrong.
If you would have NO guess work

glasses go to Charles Gasho in the
