Ironx Lost case for LawYer.

In his early days at the bar the late
Lord Bowen prosecuted prisoner who
had teen caught in a house at night
crawlirg downstairs with his boots of
and carrying portable property. The
evidence was so overwhelming that
Bowen ventured to indulge in a little
irony and remarked on the thoughtful
ness of the prisoner in removing his
shoes. thus disturbing nobody, and in
selecting only solid silver articles from
the plate basket, SO that the family had
enough forks and spoons left for break
fast. The jury was SO impressed by
these extenuating circumstances that
it acquitted the prisoner. Bowen never
employed irony again when addressing
jury.

.CHAS. RICE MURDERED BY
JOHN HUNT NEAR COKEV|LLE
The Crime was Committed Last Saturday Night
Hunt Walked to Cokeville and Gave Him
self up--Says He Shot in Self Defense.

Some time last Saturday night or
early Sunday morning John w.
Hunt shot and instantly killed Chas.
Rice at their camp in Dry Hollow,
about five miles west Of Cokeville
and just 413 feet west of the Idaho
Wyoming boundary line.
The particulars of the affair, as
we learn them, arc about as follows:
These two men, with p. J. McAtee,
had been camping in sheep wagon
in Dry Hollow for couple of weeks
and were engaged in trapping. Last
Saturday Hunt went to Cokeville
and while there drank more or less
"booze," and took jug of liquor
back to camp with him that evening.
According to evidence brought out
in the coroner's inquest, which was
held In Cokevllle Tuesday, Hunt
upon arriving at camp Saturday
night, began "plcking onto" Rice
because the latter hadn't washed the
dishes and gathered in the wood for
the night.
Hunt claims that he killed Rice
about o'clock Sunday morning,
but whether the quarreling and
drinking continued all night, was
not made clear at the inquest. Hunt
claims that Rice attacked him with
sharp knife, and that he killed
him in self defense, To partially
substantiate this story, Hunt bears
two or three slight scratches on th'
face.
The weapon used was revolver
of IA calibre. The bullet entered
Rice's forehead and raining down.

Consideration.

Footwear is made prominent this

calculated to display the feet. The
attention thus focused has brought
about some smart results There is a
marked preference for the high but
toned boot with its Cuban heel. which
is shown In calfskln and suede and
also In velvet, for the tendency OF
fashion to make much of rich fabrics

smoked-pearl buttons.
slippers also partake of this general
use of rich materials. Black satin ia
always correct for dressy wear and
this season black velvet is also great,
iy favored, The Geforming rosette is
being displaced by the widespread use
OF buckles for ornamentlng slippers
For formal wear the scintlllatinp
rhinestones are of course the most

Things Worth Remembering.
A heavy rocking chair that is hard

Never throw away popcorn that re-

Household Hints.
During the cold months, when hang.

be well TO remember that there are
ways of making that task pleasanter.
For one way hang the small things
like handkerchiefs and napkins on the
clothes horse and set them out on the
back porch out of the wind, to freeze
and dry.
Anotherk help is to warm the
I clothes pins in the oven until quite
hot. II is surprising how long they
will keep warm and how much It helps
in quickly placing the clothes, to have
warm fingers.

In with the meat and cook slowly for
