The little town of Windsor has assumed

that the coffin with the royal mourners
will pass through an avenue of the most

Throughout the day hundreds of

The room in which Mrs. Rices body
was found showed traces of {; terrible
struggle, and It was from the appear
ance of this room that the authorities
were led to believe that Doherty had
strangled the woman before taking
poison.
Dohertv was about town during the
forenoon Attention was attracted to
him by the fact that he had visited a
number of drug stores. eudcavoring to
secure poison, but in every instance he
was refused. Later he went to his
home in the rear of 20 Porter street
where Mrs. Rice kept house for him.
The police received information that
things did not appear right at Doher
tvs home, and an officer was sent
there. AS Doherty opened the door he
told the policeman that he had just
drank a tumbler of nitric acid. He
mad stolen the poison, he said, mas
much as none of the druggists woulG
sell him any. A moment or two later
he became unconscious. A physician
who was summoned said that the man
would undoubtedly die
The reason for the tragedy is not

Danvers, Mass. May 19-The death
of Daniel S. Doherty late today rang
down the curtain on the final act Of the

disturbance at the house that he had
drunk four ounces of nitric acid. and
to the effects of the poison he sue
cumbed several hours later.
While no motive for DOhcrty's action

PLACE OF ALL PLACES
 FOR CHRISTMAS GIFTS
The Growing Crowds at the Big curio
 Store a Sure Indication.

As Christmas approaches nearer, the proprietor and clerks of Balke's Big Curio store have a more and more strenuous time, on account of the growing belief that that is the place of all places to buy Christmas gifts. There is nowhere else where there is such a variety. but the main attrac- tion is the closing out sale in which prices are cut below all precedent.
 The cut applies to everything in stock and it is everywhere deep, from one half to one third off the regular prices. This closing out sale is espe- cially attractive when the reputation of the Big Curio store for the genuine ness of it's good is taken into consid- eration. There is thus a chance which no combination of circumstances will likely bring about again.
 There is hardly an article in the en- tire stock that will not make a suit able Christmas present and one which will be appreciated by somebody. The range of prices is as great as the varie ty of the stock. The Big CuriO can fit any purse and for every dollar will give more than a dollars worth. It

Artistic JemaIrx.

Conspicuous In the artistic types of
jewelry that have made their appear
ance this season is the combination of
pearls and platinum in number of
beautiful ornaments. This blending of
sheeny pearls with the soft. lustrous
gray Of the platinum is exceedingly
effective, and the charm is frequently
enhanced by the Introduction of bril-
liants
An example of exquisite workman
ship is 4 necklace with two stariike
flowers of pearl surrounded by bril-
liant sparks depending from pearl

Two Part skirts.

The prevailing fashion of the day is
to have a skirt of two materials har-
monizing In tone There is plated
or circular lower part and washer
woman's tunic in any form one desires
for the upper part. This may be turn
ed up at the hem and attached to the
lower skirt with buttons and braid
buttonholes when the material is Of
rough cloth. or 1t may be left plain,
cut in battiements.
Some of the soft house fabrics are
merely twisted into graceful roll at
the jointing of the two fabrics, and in
other frocks one sees a wide scallop
overcast with floss in a buttonhole
stitch.
In walking frocks there Is a long
knee yoke Of plain serge or cheyfot.
and below this founce of narrow
plaits of plaid cheviot.
When there is not a straight around
yoke there is long, wide front panel
that is shaped up at the sides and
rounded at the back.
