self in the head in Branch Brook park,
infiicting wounds from which he died
in a hospital two hours later. Judge
Howell was one of the most widely
known democrats of this city and al
though he was not a candidate for
election, took an active part in the
campaign.
Sharp personal criticism was made
of the judge because he had been di-
vorced BY his wife, and in a speech
last night he replied to his accusers
and demanded evidences of their
charges.
Today he walked into the park while
his court was awaiting his arrival and
fired two shots into his head. He is
said formerly to have been an Epis-
copal clergyman.

ture of the Season.

The woman who loves beautiful col.
oring and design should go through
the shops to see the new things for
household decorations.
The extravagancss of color in fabric
in the new costumes for women are
not only equaled but surpassed in
those for house draperies. Dozens of
new things have been brought out,
and, best of all. they are offered at
small prices.
In the Japanese stuffs there is the
widest profusion of stamped designs,
of embroidery and of bullion work;
some are very expensive and are in
tended only for handsome rooms.
Others are at small cost, and would
delight the heart OF the artistic wom-
an. For less than SO cents a yard
there are extra wide Japanese drape-
ries of printed crepe in pale greens
with family colored Japanese lanterns
swinging down the outside edges as
border
There are white and violet crepes
