Dolls Factory Comedy.

While a fire was raging at fac
tory at Vincennes. the rumor spread
that large number OF children were
being burned to death. Crowds col.
lected. and 1t was seen that what
looked like bodies were being thrown
from the windows. But 1t was soon
discovered that the place was a doll
factory, and the bodies" were those
OF large dolls, of which over 1000
we're destroyed.

tn SPITE of all the jibes flung at
womankind for her fickleness as TO
ffslions in headwear. there are
some sorts of hats that are always
worn and always in style, or able to
defy the passing fads of the moment.
Among them are the small toques de
signed for elderly matrons and others
who affect inconspicuous and good
styles. the walking hat, dear to all
women, and the big picture hat, with
broad brim Of graceful flowing lines
which is the rose in the rosebud gar
den of hats every season. All the
styles vary little from time to time.
but hardly enough TO identify them.
selves as belonging to a certain year
Three pretty and becoming hats for
matrons are pictured here suitable to
almost any season. The variation of
the English walking hat with brim
faced with velvet, and turning up at
the left. is finished with a very ample
drapery of silk The arrangement of
this drapery gives the impression OF a
shape turned up at both sides, as in
the regulation walking shape Such a
hat needs no additional trimming. but
may be adapted to young wearers by
the addition OF a smart feather, or II
may be elaborated for anyone by a
tuft OF ostrich half plumes. One must
look far for a more elegant hat or
a model so universally becoming.
Hats of this character require the
work of an experienced milliner;
nothing short OF perfection In draping
and In finish is permissible in them.
Facings must fit; trimmings must be
placed by a practiced eye. otherwise
the hat Is a dismal failure and i'm
possible.
The toque OF silk or hair braid
shown in the second figure is easier
to accomplish. II is made on light
wire frame which has an ample head
size. The frame Is covered with chif-

SHOE MACHINERY MEN DEMuR.
Attack the Sherman Law as Vague
Does Not Cover Case, They Say.

Boston, Nov. 6.-President Sidney w.
Winslow of the United Shoe Machinery
company, Edward P. Hurd, William Bar
bour and Elmer P. Howe, also officials
of the company, who are among the
six under indictment charged with con.
spiracy to violate the Sherman anti
trust act, filed demurrers in the United
States circuit court Saturday. They
deny all allegations made by the govern
ment and ask for dismissal of the suit
This leaves James j. Storrow yet to
demur and George W. Brown, who has
not appeared in court. to give bail.
The defendants set forth that because
of the patents used by the machinery
company the alleged combination cannot
be interpreted as violation of any law
of the Unitel States. They say thar
there is no statute of the United States
which makes it an offense to engage
in the combination set forth in the in
dictments.
A further contention is that the provi-
sions Of the act of Congress of July 2,
1890, are too vague and indefinite and
that making Illegal restraint punishable
as misdemeanor in violation of the
constitution of the United States.

JURY LIST BROKEN
BY DEATH OF WOMAN
Sweetheart C ne of Jurymen in Burt
ManslaugL .er Tnal in Rutland
County Court Caused Him
to Be Excused.

Rutland, Nov. 6.-When Judge w. w.
Miles, who is presiding at the trial of
Harley Burt of Pawlet, charged with
manshughter in killing Frank Smith a
week ago, learned Saturday of the death
of the sweetheart of one OF the jurors,
he allowed this man, John Learned of
Tinmouth, to 60 to his home For the
first time in Rutland county a Jury
trying manslaughter case was sepa.
rated.
The death of Miss Lucy Harvey was
sudden. They were TO have been mar
ried within few weeks. In dsmissfng
the iuryman, Judge Miles warned him
to be careful of his reading and not dis
cuss the case in any way. The II men
continued hearing the evidence at
o'clock this afternoon.
A witness called by the state Saturday
told in cross-eyamination OF seeing Smith
fall from the carriage in which he was
driving just previous to the alleged as
sault by Burt. As the defense admit
that Burt did not strike Smith over the
head, it is expected that they will claim
that the fall and not the blow was the
cause of death. which did not occur
until several hours after.
The first witness was Miss Doris Gro
sier, who lives near the Burt place. She
saw Smith fall from the carriage into the
road. She did not know whether Smith
was in sitting or standing position
when he fell Smith was intoxicated,
she said, while the men were in the vi
entity of Crosier's Miss Crosier did not
notice anything unusual about Croft.
Mrs. William Croft, mother Of William
Croft, was the next witness. She lives
with William She saw Smith walk into
the house with Williams assistance last
Friday evening. He was nearly helpless,
she said. Smith had bruise on his face
and there was some blood in evidence.
Croft was not intoxicated, bis mother
declared.
Mrs. Croft gave the first clue as to
what became of the money Smith had in
his pockets when brought home, saying
that about the time Smith died his
mother, who had been summoned, went
to his room and came downstairs, where
witness was, carrying money in her
hands.

Burlington, Nov. 6-The Hubbard
block, a three-story structure on lower
College street, was destroyed by fire Sat

estimated at $4,000. The absence of
wind saved one entire square of build

MANNING NOT SURE OF PLACE.
Man Considered Certain of Being McNa-
mara Case Juror May Have TO Go.

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov. 6.--The only
talesman who had been considered as
sured of acceptance by both sides in the
Mcnamara murder trial was virtually re-
moved from consideration at Los Angeles
Saturday and at the end of four weeks
it could not be learned that any juror
was even fairly certain to remain in
the box. Seaborn Manning, SO, farmer
and the talesman who seemed agreeable
to both sides, is physically unsuited for
jury service in long trial, according to
four OF Mannings fellow talesmen, who
waited upon Judge Bordwell and told
him Manning's condition.
Judge Bondwell took the matter under
adyisement. Attorney Clarence S. Oar
row, chief counsel for the defense, said
he feared it would be impossible to re-
tain Manning. Other possibilities as
permanent jurors are Talesmen Balm.
Green and Sam Mendeuhall. OF these
Green appeared to stand the best chance.
although he admitted having an ac-
quaintanee with District Attorney John
ID. Fredericks. Balm, who formed the
first labor union in Los Angeles, and
Mendenhall, who has given evidence Of
Delhg INSTRUMENTATION, may pe chaiiehBed.
There is not thought to be much chance
for A. C. Winter, Walter n Frampton,
George W. johnson, Frank Frakes or
A. I. MeNeely, but Byron Lisk, Pasa
dena -four mill owner, may be a juror.
Talesman MeKee's status is considered
uncertain, and w. II. Andrews, the
twelfth man, is under challenge by the
defense.
Judge Bordwell excused five Of the
new venire OF forty men for personal
reasons. Harry Chandler, son-in-law Of
Gen. Harrison Gray Otis, publisher Of
The Times, and himself yice-president OF
The Times Mirror company, was ex-
cused until next Wednesday That he
viii undergo examination as a talesman
is probability.
