to-" It develops that only a single
creditor was pressing him for bill of
about $500, and although he could have
managed to stave things of, and
maybe pulled through with the pay
ment Of this amount, he preferred to
| give all creditors an equal showing
land hence his petition In bankruptcy.
From all that can be, learned, unless
the bankrupt estate is poorly manag-

= The run Of pictures at the Idle
Hour theatre has been unusually good
this week and so has the attendance
The Harem Captives," Monday night
was a good picture, much enjoyed by
many Of the audience, especially be-
cause Of its accurate portrayal Of life
and scenery in Mohammedan Morocco;
but another comic phantasy, giving
the adventures Of beer sot In a bar
rel, was no less enjoyed. Then Of three
excellent pictures shown Tuesday night
one entitled Racing against Time,
was the general favorite. This was q
story Of rivalry between two railroad
companies for a contract to carry the
mail. 1t was necessary for the winner
given points. While one Of the roads
was carrying the mail in a locomo-
| tive, an agent Of the other disabled the
engine at a water tank and by cover
ing them with a pistol, locked the en-
gineer and fireman up In a house, on
the side Of the track. A young girl
the sweetheart of the son Of the pres
ident Of the road, saw what was doing
and slipping out the mail sack took
another engine that happened to be
fired up ready for the run and carried
the mail through on time, thus foiline
the dastardly efforts of the rival road
and winning the approval Of her sweet
hearts father. In the making OF this
picture, the camera must have been on
the tender Of the flying locomotive. The
effect Is to make the audience feel that
it also is on the tender, and the acting
| Of the young girl who is running the
engine Is 80 good as to make every
body enter into the heartiest sympa-
thy with her efforts. Several members
the Joined in the enthusiasm Of the
crowd that was awaiting the arrival OF
the train at the station. But these are
only a few Of the good pictures that
have been shown during the week
The show has been worth while every
night. "arrd -r ,.gu .H
| - The millinery openings held by the
Kirkpatrick-Belk. Co., and the Thorn
son Co., of Yorkville, Tuesday and
Wednesday, were largely attended, as
such occasions always are, and judging
| by the comments of the ladies, were
fully up to the shows Of the past In
point Of excellence and extent. The
ladies began early Tuesday morning to
visit the millinery departments and
kept 1t UP despite the unfayorable
season are different; they are designed
with much skill, and 1t appears that
the powers that be" in the making OF
millinery fashions, have won the
hearts Of most women. There are
many striking innovations, and mi
lady is, no doubt, glad to find some
thing new and different, 80 like nature
with a profusion of rich colorings. Pick
out q hat at random and one Is at once
struck with its varied hues. ANY
thing, so 1t Is bright" seems to have
been the rule with the designers, and
the result Is a riot Of color-almost
noise, in some instances. Purple and
green, orange and green, purple and
orange, purple and rose, and then
general mixture; Bulgarian combina-
tons of yellow and red and blue are
to be seen. And then too, Of the colors
most seen there Is q wide variety OF
tones; in greens for instance, there are
emerald, reseda, bottle, Nagasaki and
Kelly, and the rosy hues include Mel
rose, tomato red, brick red, Besnarc
flame color, and the vivid American
Beauty, and the blues and browns are
almost as varied. The hats are decid.
edly smaller, as q general rule, and
will show more hair at sides and back
Many have very low crowns, and
brims that sit snug at the sides, but
the shapes are as varied as the color
ings and choice Is left largely to the
preference of the individual. The big
hat of other seasons doesn't appear sc
important this season, and Dame
Fashion DEGREES that this once popular
hat will be reserved for dressy occa-
sions and even then the dimensions
| will be reduced a bit. Tam-o'- -Shanter
elongated turbans and sailor shapes
some with broad brims and others roll
ing with soft straw crowns, will be
popular. Ostrich, ghoura and para
disc feathers, flowers Of French velvet
and silk in clusters or garlands are
popular as trimmings, and Of course
ribbons are to be seen in abundance
Along with the millinery displays, the
dry goods stores, including the Thorn
son Co., Kirkpatrick-Belk Co, the
Cloud Cash Store, Mcconnell Dry
Goods Co. and ]. M. Stroup took ad-
vantage Of the occasion and made spe-
cial displays Of dress goods, novelties
silks, laces, embroideries, ETC., that &c
to the makeup Of spring stocks. .
