THE DUBBER CAUGHT.

There has been considerable ex-
element in The towns OF Mandeville
and Abita Springs, on account OF va
rious 1obberies that have been COM
mitted In these towns. Mrs. Wills,
of Vaudeville, it was reported, had
awakened in time to prevent thief
from carrying off her husbands
trousers, in the pockets OF which
we're SIS, but while she raped his
fingers on the window sill with suf-
ficient force to make him let go the
trousers, he still managed to cling
to the shoes he had in the other
hand, as he dropped from the win
dow. The Simeon family also had
an experience somewhat similar.
Entering the house unexpectedly
they found two negroes preparing
to rummage the house. Their en-
trance, however, was the cue for the
exit of the negroes, who broke down
the gate in the excitement of their
rush. Later the idea occurred te
the party to visit the dining room
and see if everything was locked and
safe for the night. As they stepped
into the room they saw a tall negro
crouched behind a table in one cor
ner. He rushed past them and also
made his escape. These incidents.
together with the robberies of sa-
looms and other places, naturally
made the women folks nervous and
the men indignant, and all sorts OF
schemes were laid for their capture.
without avail.
Following the robbery of Joe
Rausche's barroom, in Abita, Mon
day morning the barroom of Chas
Biggio was robbed. A small amount
Of cash was secured, some cigars
and case goods and a few other
things.
iThe following story is told of the
capture of one of the supposed
thieves:
Going over on the boat, Wednes
day, Vaudeville citizen thought he
recognized a negro passenger as ono
of the robbers. The crew of the
boat concluded to capture him, which
they did, Notwithstanding &c tried
to jump overheard. They searched
his satchel and found several boxe:
of cigars, bottles of whisky and the
ice-pich taken from Biggio's. They
also found the revolver belonging tc
Joe Rausch and stolen from his bar
room. 1t is also said that negro
woman accompanied the man to tn.
boat; that she carried satchel sim
liar to that of the man and that sht
returned to Covington. 1t was also
said that she was expected to go to
Slidell and meet the man there on
his return from the city, and that
that town was to be the scene of sub.
sequent operations. The man was
tai en- to New Orleans and placed in
the parish prison.

A CARD.

wish to express publically my
thanks and appreciation to the town
council of Covington for their very
generous and public spirited promise
made to me that they will budget
enough to defray the expenses of our
Covington graded and high school
for two months, or in other words
enough to guarantee a nine month";
term of school.
The Covington high school is nov
doing good college preparatory wov.
and 1t is only able to do this by havs
ing good corps of teachers and 2
nine months term of school each
year. Should we ever be obliged tt
do without either of these two re
Quisites our school will have to drc..,

DEFECT OF MODERN SOCIETY,"
So Great the Expenditure for Clothes
That Little Is Left to Be En-
pIoyed Elsewhere.

The cost of dress, the absurd
lengths to which expenditure goes on
luxurious and sumptuous clothing, is
now pushed to such an extreme that
a woman's fortune, like that Of a saw
age beauty, may often be seen on her
person, and there is no margin left for
entertaining, for all that makes social
intercourse delightful.
Three years ago it was said by a
senator's wife that only the very rich
could now give dinner parties at all,
and that for modest fortunes enter
tanning in any form, except the mild
dissipation Of afternoon tea and
cakes, was out of the question.
What, 1t may be asked is the use
of all this amazing expenditure on
finery, IL the furs and trinkets, the
hats and robes are not to be exhibit
ed on festive occasions to friends and
admirers? A woman may be dressed
to perfection from head to foot, but
IL no one is to see it, and sociability
goes by the board in the effort to be
beautiful, to what end has she made
all this effort?
The matter is grotesque, and why
her men folk do not put stop to it
is food for wonder. You might as
well, if you were child, have a doll
which is attired in such costly and
sumptuous fashion that you can never
take it out of its cupboard, nor afford
to ask your little friends to tea to
look at it.
There is no doubt that in France,
where the love of dress originates,
and where our woman first fall a VIC
tim to this fever for clothes, they
worship to the point of absurdity the
well-dressed woman.

AGAIN the Poor Fat Man.

Among the passengers on down.
town car the other evening were fat
man, lean man, who proved to be
dear and couple of giggly girls. On
one of the side streets a German band
was engaged in making life miserable
for the residents OF the neighborhood.
The fat man shifted uneasily in his
seat and remarked sarcastically to the
lean man in low tone, "Music,"
The lean man put his hand to his
ear and said, "Eh?"
Music" repeated the man in loud
er tones.
Beg pardon, l am not able to hear"
said the lean man.
Music" yelled the fat man, so loud
that the passengers all Uttered and
the little giggly girls all grew red in
the face.
"Oh." said the lean man as he
turned around and looked about him.
The little German band was out OF
sight by this time, and the passengers
laughed immoderately at the vain at
tell pts of the unfortunate man to find
the object of the fat mans comments
Fat men are provSrbially good ne
tured, and by that time the oddity OF
the situation had dawned upon teis
particular fat man.
Hum" he said. you folks needn't
laugh. Our friend saw fully as mich
music as you and l heard"

There is no end to the variety in
shapes and styles designed for chill
dren this season. Taking their cue
from the liking for bonnets shown by
grown-ups, designers have copied
nearly all the shapes, modifying them
more or less for little folks. This
branch of illinery-millinery for
children-has shown q wonderful de-
velopment in the past three years.
This is the result of specializing, on
the part of designers and trimmers,
who showed marked talent for max
ing children's hats.
The bonnet shown, made of alternat-
ing folds of beaver cloth and plaid vel
vet, is modelled on the Dutch cap,
with the crown extended. 1t is dis

BOOTS TO MATCH THE GOWN
Costume and Footgear Must Be of the
Same MateriaI-Shoes for
Dancing.

"How much do 1 require for pair
Of boots?" is the question which the
smart woman may have to ask next
time she is buying material for a new
frock.
A representative was informed at
leading house the other day that the
latest fashion from Paris DEGREES that
costume and footgear must be made
Of the same material.
Thus a striped tweed will neces-
state pair Of boots of the same
tweed. and a blue serge will be worn
with blue serge boots.
The representative was told that il
was usual to have the entire boot
made of the dress material. but it was
permissible to have the fashion car
ried out only in the uppers.
"The boots are very comfortable to
wear" it was stated "and they make
the feet look much smaller, as no
prominence is given them when they
are clothed in the same material as
the skirt.
''In the matter of house and even
ing shoes the rule is not stringent.
Patent shoes are being worn a good
deal, and so are satin laced-trimmed
shoes.

very popular for dancing" g."-Chicago

Tidv BIouses.

Blouses made of thin fabrics often
look untidy and unfinished at the
back, owing to the difficulty in con-
cealing the sewing on of the hooks
or buttons. A neat way to do this is
to stitch on small box plat after
the hooks have been sewed on, or the
sewing which shows through can be
covered over with lace, a band of EN-
broidery or any suitable trimming.
When it Is the placket hole that is
hanging loosely, and, In the case of a
fragile fabric, 1t seems likely to tear,
sew hook and eye as far down each
side as possible and press the hook
together to keep it from coming un-
fastened. This will hold the ends Of
the placket hole together and prevent
any chance of their dragging and tear
ing.

Dye Hat Roses Artistically.

Faded artificial flowers are we'll
worth wearing If made to look like

packet Of one of the many cheap dyes
IN the desired shade. Prepare it and
test 1t with white muslin to be sure il
Is the right shade. and then. after
brushing and shaking the flowers free
rom dust, dip the beads into the dye.

Z they are flowers with centers OF
deeper shade, such as roses, mix a
small quantity of the dye in thicker
consistency. so that 1t is a few shades
darker, and paint the middle petals
only very lightly with paint brush
dipped in this, after the first coating
has dried. The stalks and leaves
should be painted all over with gum.

Natural Timepiece.

There is TO need for clocks or the
Aegean sea any day when the SIN Is
shining. There natute has arrenged
her only timepiece, one that does not
vary though the centuries pass. This
natural time marker is the largeit sun
dial in the world. Projecting ivto the
blue waters of the sea is a laIse pro-
montory which lifts its head 3,b00 feet
above the waves. AS the sun swings
round, the pointed shadow OF the
mountain just touches one otter the
other a number OF small. islands,

spending to the velvet, and the de-
sign is bright and attractive.
This little bonnet is comfortable,
protecting the head from cold and has
the additional virtue of being mex
pensive.
A little Napoleon shape made OF
plain velvet is faced with shirred chif-
fon at the front and trimmed with
rosette of this soft material placed at
each side of the crown. The brim
droops at the back over the hair.
This is beautiful and comfortable
model upon which it would be hard to
improve in any way. 1t is more
dressy than the bonnet Of plaid and
cloth and may be worn with or with
out ties Of chiffon. An elastic band
fastens it to the head in either case.
