FIGHTING BOB" TELLS
GOOD YARNS OF SEA LIFE
Lessons in Patriotism In Thrilling
Account of Ships World
Voyage

The Evans story, as told by Eight
ing Bob" is a most interesting one,
whether it is the telling of splitting
the ocean open" or criticising the naval
department for locating Admiral
Cervera every place on the globe ex-
cept where he was really in hiding, or
describing the Maria Teresa, the pref
test boat he ever saw and too pretty
to shoot at"
His talk on the Battle of Santiago
Bay is replete with tributes to the
heroic spirit which fired his men at
that time, and is a stirring lesson In
American patriotism. OF the sinking OF
the Maine and the incidents connected
with the sinking of the Merrimac much
material is used that is valuable from
an educational standpoint.
This Is the last opportunity Los
Angeles will have of hearing the
famous fighter and while hundreds
have honored Japanese admirals by
visiting their boats or entertaining
them at banquets, they have over
looked their own admiral, to whom
thew should at least show sufficient al
legiance to spend an evening listening
to his splendid story of American
achievements.
Tonight at Simpson auditorium the
story of the Spanish war
will be told, at popular prices.

New York Fashion Letter.
(By Catherine Mann-Payzant.)

New York, Nov. 24.-t Is during
these nipping, frosty. crisp days that
women turn to furs. It is not alone
for the comfort they bring, but for
they give to a toilette. A little bit of
fur . further toward making a cos
tune a thing of beauty than any 9TH
CT fen of trimming
This season muca fur will be seen
on the street as well as on the coat
and tiny narrow bands are being
worn on evening dresses, while a
band of fur outlining the train of a
dinner gown Is most effective. Many
of the one-piece gowns are heavy
enough for wear without a coat and
are made appropriate to tae season
by the addition of fur trimmings; on
very cold days an extra wrap fur
trimmed may be worn. A costume
carrying out the same idea had a coat
OF the new seal-skin with a bar Of
the same on the skirt and the hat
was partially trimmed with it.
1t is not alone the costume that Is
decorated with fur. but in millinery
IL has never been used to a greater
degree or better results as some OF
the Shapes, the turbans for instance
are entirely of fur with little or y
trimming. and that little consisting
of a knot or rosette of velvet or an
made of gold or silver
braid or with a long aiereite o.
streaEer of marabocet or coque feath-
ers. Again he hal may be of velvet
with a deep and of fur and a heaG
or tail for an ornament. or harrow
2 of fur may be used on the
and a huge buckle of the fur may be
used on the left side to hold a wing
or quill, but rarely does one see a
real plume of any sort on the fur
nat. Ostrich feathers seem at their
best upon the rich velvet beaver or
plush background of hats made from

The time was once when a fur gar
ment vas bought because ii was
fashionable always, no matter what
changes we're made in their realms
of smart attire. In these days the
woman who owned a sealskil Goa
wore il for years in its first cut with
out question abou it's cut for seal
was fashionable in itself, but all that
is today changed and the furriers'
trade is made profitable by it.
As each year comes around a coat
is changed new fur is added to effect
the changes, other kinds of fur are
used at times. Braiding. velvet and
trimmings are added to these side
materials which quite upset ~conserva-
tive ideas, and il must be sail that
the results are not always in the
best OF taste.
Many of the neck pieces are long
and wide this season, although the
woman VINO likes The smaller scarf

in front and the tail and paws behind
and on the shoulders. The nuffs art

HIS WAY TO GET CASH
Cashed Check for $500 in st. Paul
and Took Legal Tender

st. Paul. Jan. 16.-W. A. Miller, vice
president of the First National bank,
of this city, is of the opinion that
Andy" Jones. the missing cashier of
the First National bank of Rugby, N.
D. secured from the st. Paul bank the
money with which he fed.
About two weeks ago Jones present.
ed check for $500 to Mr.. Miller.
He was suspicious of Jones. but in
vestigation showed that the check was
genuine. 1t was drawn by bank at
Long Prairie, this state, on a Mime
apolis bank, and was made payable to
Jones'
Jones was anxious to secure legal
tender for the check, saying he needed
1t to make a payment in Duluth. He
asked that he be paid in gold. Mr..
Miller suggested that the bank might
get its Duluth correspondent to ad-
vance the funds, but Jones finally con-
cluded that he had better take the
money himself, Consequently, he was
given the amount of the check in $50
and 500 notes.
II remarked that he looked rather
shaggy, and as he went out of doors
l noticed that his clothes looked
frayed at the edges. and instinctively
l concluded that there was something
wrong about him. l expressed this
opinion to Mr.. Nienhauser.+ our CASH
ier. A couple of days later l heard
that he was missing from Rugby"
Mr.. Miller said Jones had been their
correspondent at Rugby for the past
two years. Because he was suspicious
of him he never permitted him to bor-
row without first-class security.
In the past few days, Mr.. Miller
says that he has seen several bankers
from different parts of the state who
have had dealings with Jones. All of
them held securities of doubtful value.
These bankers were outside of the
regular line of communication, which
indicates that Jones operations may
prove to be more extensive than is be-
lieved at present, although even now
it is asserted that his dealings may
disclose at least 100000 of valueless
securities.
About two years ago the National
German-American bank. of this city,
loaned Jones $4,000. At the same
time two banks in Minneapolis each
lent him an equal amount
A banker returning from New York
ascertained that bank in that city
had loaned him 100000 on some Sc
curities which proved to be of doubt
full value.
Through Mr.. Miller, the other twin
city banks were notified, and they
succeeded in disposing of the securi-
ties before Jones had a chance to get
away with the money.
