Derm0tt TO Remain Dry.

After a vigorous tight on the
part OF the saloon supporters and
an equally vigorous defense Oh the
part OF the drys, County Judge
HAIRY +. Cook last Friday night
refused the petition for the issu-
ance OF saloon license in Dermott
The hearing was begun in Lake
Village on "Wednesday, a special
train being chartered tor the
second time tins year to take the
temperance forces over from Der
mott for the trial. Late that night
adjournment was taken until Fri
day, when Iudgc Cook and County
Clerk Geo. Eld-r came to Der
mott to finish the hearing, thus
saving the expense and InConven-
fence OF taking a large number OF
witnesses 10 the county seat.
The final decision was made
about s O'Clock FRIDAY evening,
up to which time the examination
OF the list OF names was still not
completed, but the drys" We're
so tar in the lead that the saloon
lists conceded their defeat, and
Judge Cook rendered his decision,

Attorney T.. G.. Hammock very
skillfnlly conducted the case tor

upon which he kept the defense

mented upon This is the second
time that he has given his services
tor this cause. Attorney ID.
Anders very ably handled the case
tor the saloon men.

The blouse shown in the picture is

tends part way up on the coronet. 1t
is prettily trimmed with a knot and
ends made of the Grape.
For summer wear mourning mil
linery shows all the designs that are
made up in black, duplicated in white
Grape, which is correct mourning.
Combinations of black and white in
the same hat develop wonderfully at
tractive millinery and demonstrate
that it is the fabric rather than its
color which signifies its use and pur-
pose
Among the shapes fashionable this
season there are many which are
adapted to Grape hats. They are
medium In size and set almost square
ly on the head, two things which are
excellent points in their favor. When
Grape wells are used with them they
are almost always rather short and
fall from the back of the hat.

Filled Icehouse With Hose.

According to an account included In
a letter received here from the north
ern part of the state, the farmers up
there are not going to be bothered
about ice prices this year. The let
ter was recounting the conditions OF
the exceptionally cold winter. I'VE
filled our icehouse easier this winter
than ever BEFORE" the letter said.
when the cold was at its height we
attached the garden hose to the gaso-
line force pump, and turned the water
into the icehouse, which had previous
ly been lined with frozen cakes of
sawdust. One night was sufficient.
Next morning the icehouse was filled
with a solid cake of ice, frozen to an
unusual degree of hardness. We mere
ly nailed up the door, and have ice
enough to last all summer. "-Indianap
