In prominence to the regular single

English frock coats have been given
much serious consideration by the fore
most designers. but this garment has
never been received with the same favor
here that II enjoys abroad. II is a
dressy. dignined garment Of grace and
distinction and II will yet assert itself
as one Of the best sellers" while the
fashion edicts have not laid any special
stress upon Il this season It can be
adopted with the propriety and with the
consciousness that II Is good form and
especially good taste for men Of tall
stature. The two and three button
models are most recommended and for
men OF portliness. the one button model
Is comfortable and effective.

Another overcoat that will have great
approval Is the military overcoat with

made of fancy overcoatings with gray

White is Better Than Neqro.

New York.-A negro and a white man do not suffer equal hu- initiation in the eyes of the law for false arrest, according to the appel late division of the supreme court which sustained an order of Justice Dugro in the supreme court, reducing the amount of damages awarded George Griffin, a Pullman porter from s2.500 to $500.
 In his order Justice Dugro said:
 While in some senses the negro, under the law, is just as good man as the president of the United States, it would be a bad argument to say that he is just as good in some re- spects. The damages in a case of this kind depends on a mans stand ing and circumstances. If he is col ored, that fact should be considered" ]"

Woman Had Put Up with a Lot, But
 Last Trick of Monkey Was Too Much.

George F. Freeman no longer owns ! monkey. He did until a short time ago. The simian was pet for Free man, and pest of his mother. AL though she loathed the creature she tolerated it's presence on account of the attachment between her sou end ais pet.
 One day Mrs. Freeman was planting hover seed in small patch of spaded ground in her back yard The mon- key had watched with interest the preparation of the ground for the seeds. When the planting came his curiosity grew as the work progressed.
 Following Mrs. Freeman as she thrust the small sweet pea seeds into the ground and covered them over the monkey dug up each seed, but it found each one alike in taste-and not an altogether pleasant taste at that -spat it out and moved on in the wake of the planter. Mrs. Freeman's s back was turned to the monkey until she finished the last row, then she turned and saw the results of the animals campaign in the place where She expected flowers to bloom

Hotels Must Have Big Sheets.

Springfield, Ill.-The bill regulating hotels and lodging houses, which was originally drafted by Representative H. A. Shepherd, requiring that hotel bed sheets should be nine feet in length, was passed by the house by a vote of 80 to 0. Much merriment was created in the discussion of the necessity for long sheet and Shep- perd, who is more than six feet tall, explained that he had consented to a regulation in the sheet length to 99 inches. The bill also provides that rope suitably knotted be furnished in all upper rooms in hotels not equip ped with permanent fire escapes.

 Story of Crime.

story or Crime.
 Shawnee, Okla.-A sensational sto- ry was told on the witness stand in the district court Friday by Virgil Biggers, until recently county attor- ney of Pottawatomie county, and now under indictment for accepting a bribe from jointists and bootleggers of Shawnee. Confessing his guilt and declaring that he did it out of consid- eration for his family, he told in de- tail how the jointists organized and paid certain county officials sums of money for protection. The confession came at the opening of the trial of Judge w. N. Mabon of the district court, who is on trial for accepting bribe, having been indicted jointly with Biggers. Biggers reviewed a meeting in which Mabon and himself met representatives of the jointists and agreed upon terms of immunity. He admitted receiving an envelope containing $500 from two jointists, the same being delivered to him by County Commissioner Robert Hagar. Of this sum lie testified that he gave Judge Mabon p400, Hagar $100 and kept the rest himself. The state charges that the combination received S10,000 for protection within II months.

sion Trying Safety Device.
A New Automatic Block Is in
Use on Burlington.
HAS PROVED SUCCESS
Is Not Affected by Season o.
Year or Other Causes.
Other Items of Interest in
Railway Circles.

Chicago, May 3.-The block signal
and train control board of the inter
state commerce commission are TAX
ing trips on the Burlington to a point
near Aurora to inspect a device for
automatically stopping trains whose
crews ignore the danger signal.
The device has been in operation
for more than a year on the main line
of the Burlington between Sugar
Grove and Big Rock and experimental
tests have been made morning and
evening each day, usually under the
supervision Of an inspector Of the
commission. The information pos
sessed by the board is that there has
not been a single failure Of the device
to work properly either during the
winter or summer.
Inventors and many railroad men
believe that the day of such train ac-
cidentS on roads perfectly equipped
with block signals as are due to vio-
lations of orders, or to misunderstand-
ing of orders, is near an end. If the
board should be satisfied with the tests
it is probable it will recommend the
adoption by the railroads of the au-
tomato stop.
Air Brakes Are Set.
The track circuit is so fixed that
when a signal is at danger the auto
matte stop is in position to do it's
work. Should the train pass the sig
nal which is set against it's progress
the wheels Of the locomotive strike a
part of the track mechanism which
opens a valve connected with the air
reservoirs under the cars and thereby
sets the air brakes.
Member of the board were appre-
hensive that the mechanism required
in the track was of such a character
that it would become clogged with ice
or snow, but the record of the past
winter shows that this condition did
not occur. Many railroad officials
were also apprehensive that the re-
moval of two ties from the track,
which is necessitated by the installa-
ton, would weaken the track to a
dangerous point. Whether the con-
tinued tests will disprove this or not
remains to be determined by the
board.
The members of the board, appoint
ed as a result of resolution of con-
gress, are M. f. Cooley, chairman;
Azel Ames jr., F. G. Ewald and B. B.
Adams The board held its meeting
here yesterday, but only minor mat
tiers were considered. Members de-
clared that there was no dearth of
inventions tended to better railway
operation, but that the great majority
of them were not even worth trying
because the inventors were totally ig-
norant of operating conditions.
