Great Chance for This Judges Wife.

Great Chance for This Judges Wife.
A New York court has established
a ruling that no woman's dress car
ries a money value after it has been
worn ten times. The decision was
made in a fire insurance suit whereby
the plaintiff sought to recover the full
value of clothing destroyed. In ad-
hitting that the clothing had been
worn more than ten times the plain
tiff lost her case, for the court gave
her but a trifing sum.
Whew! What an opportunity for
that judges wifeI She might hang a
tally sheet by her wardrobe door with
the record of every wearing Of e
garment. Ten times and OUT might
become her slogan. If she chose, she
could have a new dress or two or
three new dresses every ten days
according to the number of times she
wishes to change her clothes in a
days time. Perhaps at the end Of a
month the judge might come to the
conclusion that after all "a dress has
some money value after it has been
worn ten times.

The Blue and the Gray.

Honorable Granville Jones, of
Chamberlain, s. d. one of the best
know orators and lecturers OF the
northwest and one of the most ap-
%preciated speakers that ever APP
, peared in Scotland, will return to
the city on the evening of Novem-
Der 16 in a new role, "The Blue
and The Gray"
With the assistance of Col. W.
A. Gardner, Mr.. Jones gives one
OF the most entertaining programs
in the lyceum world today, as we'll
as something entirely new in the
WORK.
Few people, not even the soldiers
who fought in the war of the re-
bellion. know the real issues and
the true causes that lead up to the
tiercest strife in the history of our
country. The two men tell this
seemingly %threadbare tale in such
a fascinating and vivid manner
that one is taken back to the battle
fields to 9 the pictures of strife
repalnted before their very eyes, in
word scenes.
Wherever Mr. Jones and Col.
Gardner have appeared they have
been appealed to by The public to
continue their entertainment long
over the regular hour.
Col. Gardner's father was a
soldier IN the union side, while the
father of Mr.. Jones was arrayed in
the opposing forces of the southern
army. Both men have gone Deep
ly into the statistics and annals of
the war from the standpoint of the
south and the north, making their
program highly instructive as well
as entertaining, giving the people
history that has never been written
because all have either been pre-
JUDGED on one side or the other,
the histories of the south and the
north being no more alike than
black and white.
The men appearing in the col.
onels' uniforms of the blue and the
gray, Of the sixties, makes the at.
traction doubly interesting.
Colonel Gardner, who has been
a bugler in the regular army adds
much to the evening with his cor.
net recital.
Granville Jones has many friends
in Scotland who will welcome his
return.

her see the mysterious room, in order
that she may share his devotion for his
