Children'S Goats.

The mother who wants to make
stylish and very up to date coat for
her little daughter this fall should Sc
lect either corduroy or velveteen. both
of which fabrics will be worn moro
than ever this winter.
Corduroy was used quite little last
year. but few children's things were
developed from it Now. however, the
Paris authorities say that 1t will be ex-
tensively used for both grown people
and children's coats and dresses.
One may possibly expect to see cor
duroy suits for the small boy replace
the now favorite MILDLY suits. Many
new kinds of corduroys are seen in the
various exclusive shops these days
prominent among them being the nov
city cords in partridge effects in both
narrow and wide wales. The latest
colors. too, are shown in these stylish
fabrics, red. blue, brown. gray and
black being the colors which will be
most used for the coats of the little
ones
The simple Russian dresses look very
well when developed from this stylish
material and are nice for school when
it Is not cold enough to wear a heavy
coat.
Velveteen. too, is lovely for children's
coats and looks very we'll when trim
med with black fox. Especially is this
so with blue, black and gray velveteen.
while deep shade of red also looks
stylish when trimmed with black fur.
A neat pin striped velveteen is very
new and would make up into smart
costumes for the girl in her teens
Touches of velvet promise to be very
fashionable this winter on children's
clothes. Many of the newest frocks
show trimmings of velvet or velveteen.
which are very attractive and a relief
from the two contrasting colors of ma
terials from which little ones dresses
have been fashioned for so long
These cloth combinations will Of
course. be seen. but velvet will trim
many of the frocks intended for the
girl in her teens.

ACTIONS To
OPPOSE THE
APPOINTMENT
Study Wing of Democrats
Are Fighting the Selection
of Charles B. Beck as
Postmaster.
Continued from Page One)

of Thomas Study. The Beck forces
claim that an eleventh hour effort to
defeat Beck was made in this confer
ence, that Congressman Gray was
called on to defer his appointment.
Mr.. Beck was noncommittal on the
fight today. He refused to be quoted
on any angle of the contest, and told
Palladium reporter he had nothing
to say.
Previous Attempts.
II is said that the Study faction en-
weighed Congressman Gray in to at
tending conference last week in
which they wanted to press the claim
of Richard Allen. When the congress
man was in this city last week to Sc
cure data from business men regard
ing the eight candidates for the post
mastership, he was invited to a meet
ing by the Study crowd.
Gray was not appraised Of the true
purpose of the gathering, and it is
said he wasted no words in disapprov-
ing the action of the Study wing
Word had been passed down the line
before the meeting that only Allen
men need attend the conference.
Supporters of Beck claim this meet
ing was in direct violation of the
agreement which all candidates enter
ed into when they submitted their
names as candidates for the postmas-
tership. Not only Beck's friends, but
also the friends of other candidates
were peeved at the attempt of the
Study faction to steal a march on
them.
1t is pretty generally understood
that the efforts of the Study wing to
were futile, and that Congressman
Gray expressed himself forcibly
against the scheme.
Johnson's Views.
Henry U. Johnson in discussing the
recommendation today said: I'VE
have chance now to put a man in
the Office who knows how to run it,
and that is Frank Wilson. The trou-
BILE has been that the postmaster hith-
erto has always been a man who knew
nothing Of the office when he assumed
his duties. The Democracy of Rich
mond ought to show the people that
they can put a man in the office that
will run 1t as it should be run, and
that he will be the real postmaster,
instead of his subordinates."
The following colloquy took place
in the court room this morning when
Attorneys Johnson and Study met:
II see you got your postmaster, -
parted Johnson.
He's not my postmaster, he's
yours" came back Mr.. Study in a
flash
Hes not mine either" rejoined Mr.
Johnson, who then gave utterance to
the preceding statement.
Little groups of Democrats were
seen on the streets today discussing
the appointment and voicing their ap-
prevail or disapproval.
Has Another Letter
Charles Doney, Democratic county
chairman, said today that he had re-
ceiVed another letter from Congress
man Gray this morning, but that it
did not differ in tenor from the one
quoted today in the Palladium He
said he believed some one had regis.
tered serious objection of some kind
with Congressman Gray.

How tho Great PENGUIN Hatches.

The great penguin of the southern cir
Gle. standing with its head as high as
mans waist. matches it's eggs in
peculiar manner. These are not laid
upon the ground and brooded on after
the manner of most birds eggs. The
female lays two large eggs. The first
she hands over to the male bird, the
other she keeps. The egg is held on
the upper surface Of the large fat feet.
and is pushed up under the waistcoat
of thick feathers. 1t is there held close
to the body. whose warmth gradually
vitalizes the young bird. SO tenacious
are the parent birds of this grip that if
you knock one of them over it will fall
on its back with its feet stuck stiffly
out, still clutching the egg to its body.

bad. Although the facilities for venti-
lation are poor and can only be en-
tirely corrected at great expense, this
jury finds that the present facilities
are, in fact, not used as much as the
same easily can be without further
expense. The cellar of the Jail is like
wise in bad condition, the floor being
faced with brick, is uneven and rough,
and the same cannot be properly
scrubbed or cleansed. The jury recon-
mends that in the cellar there be a
concrete floor in order that the same
may be kept in proper sanitary con-
dition. Further the jury recommends
the wiring for electric light of such
cellar"
Praises Home.
At the Home for Friendless Wom-
en- the jury found everything kept in
the best possible order and in thor
oughly clean condition.
The jury insists that the radiators
in the Jail portion instead of being
along or near the ceiling, be lowered
to the floor in order to properly heat
those rooms This matter has been ia
ken up by the board of county COM
missioners.
No complaint was made by any of
the inmates at the Wayne County In
Urinary as to any mistreatment or lack
o. proper attention being accorded
them. The buildings found occupied
by inmates are in sanitary condition.
Condemns System.
A recommendation that the board
of county commissioners purchase a
dynamo and order the installation of
an electric light plant at the infirmary
was made. At present the only cleo
trio light provided there is such as is
taken from the current of the traction
company. This practice is severely
condemned by the jury. The wiring,
the jury states, is crude and deficient,
unsafe and unfit to be longer used,
and as a precaution against fire this
service should be Immediately dispens-
ed with and such wiring not again
used. Coal oil lights, as used, are dan
gerous and inefficient the jury reports.
The system of accounts recently
drawn up by County Auditor Bowman
and approved by the board of county
commissioners is warmly commended
by the jury.
The jury was in session eighteen
days.

Honey Producers, Attention!

Now is the time when colonies should
be given a hasty examination to de
termine which have died and which
need feeding. and many colonies that
would otherwise die can be saved if at
tended to in time.
No colony should be examined or its
hive opened unless the day Is clear and
reasonably warm and should not be
left open for a Longer period than is
absolutely necessary, and in closing the
hive great care should be exercised in
replacing the packing that constituted
the winter protection.
Where colonies have died the hives
with their combs should be taken into
the house, and later on these bodies
and combs can be used as extracting
combs with colonies that have win
tered well, or they can be used fol
making increase, as the bees will soon
free them of dead bees and other ref
use and make them all right again.
Where rapid increase is desired we
shall have to resort to artificial meth
DDS of division, as natural swarming
cannot be depended upon to give us ell
the increase desired.

O'BRlEN'S COSTLY BALK.
Dropped the Wet Ball and Allowed
Player to Reach Base.

Buck O'Brien, the Red Sox sensation
from whom so much is expected this
year, was, in one of the recent Boston
New York games, the victim Of the
strangest balk seen in professional
baseball for some years.
In the third inning, after Hartzel
had got to first on an error, O'Brien
wound up, and Hartzell prepared tC
steal. O'Brien made ready TO throw
the "spitter." Just as he let the ball &c
Hartzell started. The ball rolled from
the pitchers hands and fell at his feet
while HartZell continued on and made
the base. O'Brien could not be charged
with a wild pitch, as the ball did not
reach the plate and could be called
neither ball nor strike. The scorers
were up in the air and were going to
credit Hartzell with stolen base until
Umpire Connolly solved all doubts bt

that he would have allowed the runner
his base had he not started

Captain Lord of the Californian; but
he had regretfully come to the con-

him. The court, he said, must find
Captain Lords evidence unsatisfac-

Lord Mersey suggested that If
Captain Lord saw the signals of dis
