From the Tripp Ledger.
Some time recently Tbs States
Attorney, under the dirastions 81
the County Commissioners, started
custer proceedings against Sheriff
Frank Koch on the charge OF ha-
bitual intoxication. Judge Wicks
OF Scotland was secured as counsel
oy the defendant. Mr.. Wicks
realizing the jus tness Of the charge
nad Mr.. Koch write q resignation
and place it in the Judges hands
TO take effect when the sheriff should
again become intoxicated. The
County Commissioners and States
Attorney agreed to stop proceed
lngs on the Judges promise TO file
the resignation should the sheriff
over indulge while on duty. Yes
terday Mr.. Koch was in Tripp on
official business and to put il mildly
fell from grace He was taken
IN an auto to Scotland by Julius
Sieler aud August Warnke and we
understand that when Judge Wicks
understood the situation, he pro-
duced the resignation and said he
would file it. Mr.. Koch is q
very pleasant gentleman and we'll
met when he is sober. It is with
deep regret that his friends are
forced, for the decency of the
county to remove him from Office.

USEFUL H0OK-kND-EYE BOX
Simple Continuance VIII Save Time
and Frequently Much Wear and
Tear on theNerves.


Have you ever hunted in vain for
the special size of hook and eye you
needed? II not you are an abnormally
neat woman, or one given to buttons
or pins.
During that mad hunt through a
badly mixed box OF sewing utensils
you doubtless vowed to have a sep
arate hook-and-eye# box forthwith.
Then You prom, q srt,s got.
The next time Immediately hunt q
number of card envelopes, and on the
flap Of each one sew a hook and eye
to show the size and color within.
Put these envelopes neatly in small
box and your miserable fishing days
are over. There should be separate
holders for cards of hooks and eyes,
detached ones that have not been
used and for those that have been
ripped from a dress, as is the habit
of some economical women.
Small boxes with the hook sewed or
pasted to the lid may take the place
Of an envelope, but take up more room
and are less easily handled.

For Evening Wear.

Evening dress is, quite lovely this
year, and the tunic as much to the
fore as ever, though rather shorter
than that of last winter. The bead
embroidery is all the rage, and it is
almost crowded upon the ninon that
composes these tunics. They are OF
the most vivid coIors, and the variety
Of designs Is surprising There ap-
pears to be no end to the inventive
ness Of the clever brains employed In
this interesting If arduous work The
great difficulty must be to differen-
ttate the patterns from each other.
One of the loveliest has two long
stemmed lilies rising from the hem in
front, and a border of similar but
smaller lilies finishes the tunic. The
color Is cerise, with crystal beads,
and curiously effective touch Is the
very narrow, fat piping, in the very
palest greenish blue, which finishes
the tunic around the shoulders and
borders the sleeves. Lovely effects
are made by laying these beautiful
colors over each other.

WHY FLOWERS AT WEDDINGS

SO, consequently, at the weddings of
practically every nation. They are the
symbol of gayety, and hence their pro-
FUSION at that most joyous OF times

But some OF the flowers have more
;ahan a general significance. For ex-
ample, there was long a custom for
each guest to dip a sprig Of rosemary
aato his cup of wine before drinking
the couples health. The bride (if she
were not a widow and the BRIDE
groom once adorned themselves with
garlands of wheat. This was symbol
of plentifulness and increase and at
the present time the bridal wreath Of
orange blossoms possesses the same
meaning.
