typical French jabot is quite long,
reaching, in many instances, to the
waist line.
It the low-cut coats buttoning be-
low the waist line retain their pop
ularity. the waistcoat will play an
important role in autumn wear. In
thine long coats there is an effort to
throw one side across the front and
fasten with few buttons low on the
other side. If the waistcoat be not
worn the space at the neck between
the revers can be filled with a dainty
jabot, but for the cool autumn days
the waistcoat will be decidedly pre-
ferably
The possible success Of the style of
1880 has already made a difference
in the fascinating wares at the trim
ming counter. Even now one may
find charming little curlycue things
made Of satin rattail braid in black
and colors or rosettes Of taffeta with
pinked edges that look sometimes
like big carnation. These two are
the salient features of the 1890
gown. They are used to decorate
the full skirt and they also play
their part upon the pointed bodice
or upon the elbow sleeves.
The style is primarily fancy one,
with many frills and furbelows, many
gathers and shirrings and many dec
orations made of the material. Usual
ly these last match the dress; in
fact, the 1880 costume was a one
toned affair. save for the dainty fold
Of white illusion which softened the
line on the low-cut neck. The trim
mings have come In advance Of the
styles. but they will remain to grace
whatever gowns gain a foothold If
the frivolous little dresses OF 1880
fail to win out.
The possibilities Of the chiffon and
mousseline scarf have never been
greater, for, as they appear with al
most every costume. one may OBJ
tain an infinite number OF effects
by the exercise of merely ordinary in
genuity. A single scarf may be made
to do duty at once for the veil and
hat trimming while driving, walking
or motoring, and the same scarf may
appear again in the afternoon as a
swathing sash, or even as one Of the
new Henry III. nantes. In the
evening the scarf may again form
part oft he costume, either a. a
shoulder throw or as a mantilla.
Everywhere one sees pale yellow in
gowns. wraps and hats. Prophets
preach yellow season. OF all the
shades on the shop shelves the most
fashionable just now is orange. This
new shade exactly matches the color

SOME PRICES FOR CORN
BUT DO NOT BRING THE FIGURE
OF THE PAST.
Sale at Ames Is Over With, Topnotch-
ers Brought S65, or at Rate ofa
Cent a Kernel.

Ames, Iowa, Jan. l9.-The highest
price at the corn sale was $S5 which
was the sum paid by H. f. Patterson,
business manager of the Iowa Agrl-
culturist for A. l.. Plummer's cham
pionship ten-ear sample. This is at
the rate of $3.50 an ear, or nearly IL
cent Il kernel. The championship thir-
ty ears shown by c. r. Bishop of Al
toona were purchased by the exhibitor
for 500. Mr.. Proudfit's champion bush
ell also went back to the grower at
$40.
The price brought by the champion
ship single car was something OF
disappointment, rs this ear was bought
back by its grower Fr. Farmer, for
$2S. None of these prices is as spec
two years ago when the record break
ing price of $3.50 for u single ear was
reached The general average, how
ever, was higher than it has ever
been before. The entire proceeds
amounted to over $l,4OO, which is $4OO
more than last years record.
Now that the short course here is
finished, the extension department is
ready to start full blast at the local
short courses next week. There will
be two of these, one at Avoca and
one at Mason City.

CLOSE CALL FOR LAWN
DRIVER FOR PATTERSON CON-
PANY IN AN ACCIDENT.
His Dray ColiIded With One OF the
Coy Rigs. and He Was Thrown
Fifteen Feet.
From Saturdays Daily.

From Saturdays Daily.
Michael LAWN had a close call from
death late yesterday afternoon. He
drives the Patterson Mercantile com
pany's light dray, and was driving
along near the corner of Front and
jackson streets at $3.50 O'Clock. when
one of Eugene Coy's rigs collided with
it. The force of the impact was 50
great that Mr.. LAWN was hurled fif-
teen feet, according to an eye wit
ness. He struck upon the pavement and
was stunned. He was quickly re-
moved to his home 1924 Marsh street,
and DIR. }. w. Andrews was summoned.
1t was found that he had sustained
an injury to his stomach and right
elbow, and that he had confusion on
the back of his neck Dr. Andrews
does not think that the injuries arc
of very serious nature, but cannot
be sure for a day OF two yet.
The accident was caused by run
away team attached to Mr.. Coy's bag
gage wagon. William Wilmer, the
driver, was on Fourth street getting
a trunk. and was in the house when
something started the team and it
dashed down the street. 1t smashed
into the Patterson dray, but the dray
horse did not run, and very little dam
age was done to the vehicles.
Mr.. LAWN was driving the light one
horse city delivery rig, and was going
east on jackson, and the collision
happened as he turned south on Front
street. The runaway was coming down
Jackson and also turned south on
Front, but at the corner made too
wide circuit and hit the dray, al
though Mr.. LAWN tried to get out
of the way.

MONUMENT TO c. K. DAVIS
Samuel Thayer LETT Provision in His
VIII for Memorial for Statssman

The first step toward erecting a
monument to the memory of Senator
Cushman X. Davis in the state of Min.
nesota, has developed in rather an
interesting way.
Samuel Thaycr, for many years Il
resident of Minneapolis, and one of
Senator Davis closest personal friends,
died this week in Rochester, n. Y.
Word has oeen received that he left
Il provision that there should be APP
propriated from his estate sum of
money to be used in connection with
that of other amounts tnat may be
contributed or appropriated for the
purpose of Davis Memorial
The state of Minnesota is entitled
to two statutes in the Hall of Fame
or statutary hall of the capital i'm
Washington, and some of the Mime
sofa people think that Cushman X.
Davis and Alexander Ramsey should be
honored by having statues placed to
their memory in this hall, together
with those of Webster Cass, Garfield
Morton and other eminent men who
served in their states with distinction
i'll the United States senate
Already there is the statue of one
man who served as senator from Min
nesota i'll the capitol gallery of fame.
1t is that of James Shields. He is the
only man in America who ever repre-
sented three states in the senate, Min,
nesota, Illinois and Missouri.
The state of Illinois placed his statue
in Washington and when it was un-
veiled Senator Davis delivered an ora
ton.
Captain H. A. Chase is taking steps
to secure for the Minnesota Historical
society many of the valuable papers
left in the private library of Senator
Davis. Among these papers is col
lection of clippings from every state
in the Union, commencing Mr.. Davis
for the famous telegram which he sent
to the labor union at Duluth at the
time when the United States mails
were being held up, during the great
railroad strike of 1894

Recalls POe's Mother.
Norfolk, Va. Jan. l9-An article
in copy of the Norfolk Herald fol
July 26. 1871. supplies an interesting
"reminiscences of Mrs. David Poe. the
actress mother of the great poet whose
centenary is being celebrated today
Mrs Poe was really a great actress in
her prime but i'm later years she fell
upon hard times, and the newspaper
article in question relates to II benefit
to be given for her i'm Norfolk. David
Poe, the father of the poet, died of
consumption in this city when Edgar
Allan Poe was baby, and left Mrs.
Poe destitute.
1t is stated in the newspaper story
that Mrs. Poe made her first appear
ance upon Norfolk stage when in her
teens, and was said to be zone of the
handsomest women in America" The
appreciation continues: 'She never
came on the stage. but a general mur
mur ran through the house, what an
enchanting creature! Heavens, wnat
Il form. Her voice. too Sure never
anything was half so sweet" Year aft
er year she continued to extract these
involuntary bursts of rapture from
the Norfolk audience, and to deserve
them too: for never did one of her
profession take more pains to please
than she. But now, tine scene is
changed -misfortunes have pressed
heavily on her. Left alone, the only
support of herself and several young
children friendless and unprotected
she no longer commands the admira-
tion she formerly did. Shame on the
world that can turn its back on the
same person in distress that it was
wont to cherish in prosperity. And
yet she is as assiduous to please as
ever, and though grief may have stolen
a few of the roses from her cheeks,
still she retains the same sweetness of
and symmetcry of form and
features. She this evening hazards a
benefit, in the pleasing hope that the
people of Norfolk will remember her
past services. And can they remem-
Der, and not requitc them generously?
