HEAD GEAR OF
BRILLIANT HUE
AND SUITS OF DULL TAN COLOR
ARE THE LATEST OF FASH
ION FADS.

! In the last few weeks there has
come about picturesque fashion at
the smart resorts for wearing attrac-
tive suits of dull tan, without any re-
lieving color, and then immense hats
literally covered with brilliant flowers,
reports the Philadelphia Ledger.
These gowns are made of wolfe, of
linen, of rajah and of silk null.
They are in quite a becoming shade
of tan, and here and there the neck is
touched up with a faint ecrue filet or
escurial lace.
One such frock is of coarse linen,
without any glaze, made in one piece,
slightly high WASTED and without full
ness.
The skirt was two-piece circular,
not buttoned down the front, but fin
ished at the back with glove clamps
that made it fit perfectly.
At the footline was a wide railroad
track design of tan southache. The
skirt line extended three inches above
waist, and the blouse part began in
slight box plaits, unstitched and run
ming to shoulders.
The little yoke was only three inch
es deep, and was attached to a high.
boned stock, all made of the coarsest
f1let net, covered with a slight design
of tan southache. The edge of the
linen was also finished with a frill Of
the net at the wrist and up the back.
The hat worn with this suit was of
black straw, almost in the shape of
the Second Empire ones which droop
over the face and over the back OF
the neck.
The whole crown and almost the
whole brim was covered with pink
and red roses, forget-me-nots, leaves
and English daisies. In the midst Of
all this foliage there was run a scarf
of green taffeta tied in a pretty bow
at the side.

during the rush of business. Among
the known sufferers are Josh Guest,
who runs confectionery store on
South Main street, and Colvert Bros.

counterfeit coins being worked off are
of dollar denomination and are made
Of lead and some other combination

fore he could get away and it is be-
lieved that the same man Is still oper-
ating The man drove up to Mr.. Gam.
ble's Ice depot and ordered so pounds
of ice, which was placed In his
wagon, and he passed out one OF these
dollars and struck lis lorse and made
off. The porter at Mr. CANDLES
whipped around the corner and cut
him off and made him fork over the
proper coin, which he did readily and
then skipped out before an officer
could be gotten hold of. The negro

the same subject. Granbery's hands

Witness said Grsnbery was becoming
more nervous all the time.
His next conversation with Gran
berry was on the evening Granbery
went TO see VIII CRANBERRY. Came TO
witness ONCE. Harry again trying to
draw out witness and gain informa-
ton. Said he wanted information to
lay before brother VIII, that he
might take action for divorce and
gain possession Of his child Harry
became angry with witness and said
he thought witness was holding back
facts he should tell Witness replied
that he would tell the truth; that he
had nothing to say now. Witness
could not pacify CRANBERRY and he left
angry and agitated. Understood at
the time that CRANBERRY was searching
for the truth. Granbery's mental con-
dition appeared to be growing worse
and witness feared he had some form
of insanity. The nervous twitching
OF eyes, twitching of muscles, unset |

growing worse.

IHE fhANkIlN Malt Roufs

On July8l 1905, the Postoffice
Department had mail route No.
1858, from Franklin, w. Va. to
Crabbottom, Va, discontinued,
and the fact thatit affected the'bus-
mess interests of Monterey and
Franklin, H. NJ. Slaven, -.postmas-
ter, wrote the department for an
explanation and received a letter,
as follows.
"Sir:
In reply to your letter of the
Goth ultimo you are informed that
route No. 1859, Franklin by Cave,
w. Va, to Crabbottom, Va, was
discontinued because investigation
showed that it was of very little
Importance as a means Of commu-
nication between terminal offices
and because of the small business
transactedby Cave, the only office
dependent on the route for supply.
"Star routes are not maintained,
primarily for the accommodation
afforded by box delivery and col
lection along the routes, but for
the supply of post offices, and in
either establishing or continuing
star service the Postmaster General
is required by law to have due re-
gard to productiveness of the offices
supplied.
"Before discontinuing the star
route and authorizing the supply
of Cave by special carrier, the De-
partment issued three advertise
ments for proposals for carrying
the mail in the supply of Cave
from Franklin, but failed to obtain
any bids. When this Office receives
some assurance that a reasonable
and properly executed bid will be
submitted another advertisement
may be issued.
Very respectfully,
John w. Hollyday.

General. +"

LETTER TO A. A. SHUMATE.
Monterey, Va,

Dear Sir: One of the ways to get
rich is to make quarter look like
thirty cents.
There's a better, make it thirty
cents. 1t has this advantage; one
keeps out of Jail.
There are 200 paint manufacture
ers making quarters look like 80,
40, so and go cents, and all theodd
cents between. That is, their
paints" profess to be paints; and
they are in about the proportions
named. they get 80 to 60 cents for
a quarters worth; some get Is.
There's a better way to paint
Devoe. There are eight honest
paints. By "honest, we mean
not adulterated and full measure.
These honest ones differ; no two
are alike. In one, the quarter is
worth 81 or % cents; in another,
80 cents; there must be a best one
in eight: it is the one that takes
least gallons to cover a job-De
voc.
To cover; that seems a light way
to speak of a paint. No, it isn't.
That is what paint is for; to cover.
1t means to hide and protect. The
paint that goes farthest is best.

CHLoRQE0RM OR ASSAULT

Roanoke, Va, Aug. ga war
rant charging him with an attempt
tie criminally assault woman pa
tient on July %, was served today
on w. S. Gregory, a prominent
Roanoke dentist. Gregory was re-
leased on 81 900 bail.
When the alleged victim OF Greg
ory recited her story 10 E. M. Coul-
ter, president of the National Bust
ness College of Roanoke, and Lee
Keedick, Of New York, manager
of lecturers, they went to Gregory's
office and thrashed him. When
police answered Gregory's cries of
'tmurder" and "help" it is said he
requested them not to arrest Coul-
ter and Keedick, saying it was a
private quarrel.
The trial of Coulter and Keedick
for assaulting Gregory occupied the
police court two days, and the de-
cision has not been handed down by
Judge Bryan.
At the trial Keedick and Coulter
recited the story told them by
Gregory's alleged victim, and the
young lady repeated, on the stand,
what she had recited to Keedick
and Coulter.
Gregory declared that he admin
istered chloroform to the patient to
enable him to work better on a
tooth and that the alleged assault
made on her by him was hallucina-
ton, the result of the drug.
Physicians testified that women
under the influence of chloroform
often imagine they have been in
suited, but dentists testified that
the work Gregory did in this case,
in their opinion, was not of a char
acter demanding the use of chloro-
form.

Tho Alps and Baby Coaches.

what strikes me most in Switzer-
land is the baby COACH" said trav-
eler. "Other people are struck there
by the huge cow bells. by the wood
carvings, by the stupendous white
Alps, but it is the baby coach that
takes my eye. On every road, on every
path, you see baby coaches. They con-
tain not babies, but bags of -four or
fagots or lunches or young live pig
or goat The baby coach is univer-
sally used in Switzerland as push
cart, wise thing. We Americans
don't get the worth Of, our baby
coaches. With us as soon as the babe
is old enough to walk up goes the
coach into the attic. 1t is done for.
But at this stage the career of the
Swiss coach may be said only to be-
gin. A long life of usefulness lies be-
fore it. In rain and shine, in snow
and hail, 1t will glide by many years
sturdily up and down the steep Swiss
roads, carrying anything from a young
colt to squashed mountaineer."-

rlonterey, Va. Friday, Aug IA, 1908
Mr.. B. H. Hiner, of Franklin,

Mr.. B. H. Hiner, of Franklin,
W. Va, was at the capital city a
few days ago and gave out the fol-
lowing interview to reporter OF
the Washington Post:
Gwen if there were no factional
fight among the Republicans, the
prospects of the Democrats winning
the State ticket in West Virginia
would be excellent" declared B..
H. Hiner, Democratic nominee for
Congress in the Second COMPRESSION
al district of West Virginia, at the
Raleigh. NJ Aer, who is a law
yer of FrsASlin, is opposed by Geo.
S. Starglss, the present representa-
tive from that district. He is con-
fdent of being elected. He says he
recognizes the worth of Mr.. Stur-
giss and will make his campaign on
high plane, indulging in no mud
singing, for there is nothing that
can be said against the Republican
nominee.
II was at the Democratic State
Convention in Charleston" added
Mr.. Hiner, "and we had an exceed
ingly interesting meeting. There
was no fight among the leaders OF
the party and all was harmony
when we adjourned. The one big
issue was whether we should incor-
porate in the platform plank de
claring for a Jim crow law. 1t fl
nally was adopted. We realized
that this may ALLEVIATE the negro
vote, but the Democrats do not get
much support from the negroes
anyway, and we shall gain in Re
publican votes more than enough
to offset the detection among the
colored Democrats. Many of my
Republican friend have told me
they will vote the Democratic tick
ct because of the jim crow plank in
the platform.
"While we were in convention it
was rumored that the Republicans
would restore harmony in their
party by the withdrawal of both
Scherr and Swisher, it being stated
that Mr.. Scherr had suggested a
primary to determine which should
be the nominee. Later Mr.. Swish
er came out in denial, saying he
was in the race until he won.
There is some talk of the Republi-
cans naming Blue or Sturgiss for
governor in the event of Scherr and
Swisher retiring. But it makes lit
tie difference; there will still be a
lot of bitterness among the factions
of the Republican party, and | be-
lieve we have a much better chance
to elect the State ticket than we
had four years ago. Roosevelt car
ried the State then by 80, 900, while
Dawson's plurality was about 8 900.
There are fewer Republicans in the
State now than there were then,
because of the closing down of the
coal mines and lumber mills.
II am not confident that West
Virginia will give a Democratic
plurality on the National ticket.
The state and national tickets in
West Virginia do not 60 hand in
hand. Both Taft and Bryan have
strong personal followings there,
and when it comes to voting for
President, / do not know that
there will be a detection from
either ticket. So it is possible
that while the State may give a
Republican plurality for President,
it is altogether likely that Demo
cratic governor and other Democrat
ic State officers will be elected"
