paneled, sworn and charged, to in

OF OR duties, to the best of Our
knowledge and ability.
We have examined into the con-
dition of the Parish Jail and find
that the sane is III a sanitary con-
dition and that the Prisoners are
well fed, but desire to impress
upon the proper governing autho-
ritv the absolute importance of
making the Jail safe FROM escape
by prisoners; we also recommend
that in view of the approaching
winter months, that the broken

placed.
In keeping with the previous
recommendations of past Grand

regulations be enacted, looking
toward the peaceable maintenance

elsewhere. have dove 50 as a re-
suit of being intoxicated, but we
have been unable by rigid investi-
cation TO ascertain FROM whom
these minors obtained intoXicants,
and we urge upon the law autho-
rites a continuation of these in
quiries, in order that this class of
offenders who deliberately sell or
give intoxicants to minors may be
apprehended and dealt with accord
ing to law.
We have also examined into the
condition of the Public Highways

good condition, ard we wish to

excellent good work done in the
immediate past, and earnestly urge
upon tie citizen of the. Parish a
good road sentiment, that will
give us better roads than we now
have.
We wish to extend DIR thanks

ROADS CRIPPLED
~ CAR SHORTAGE
Heavy Grain, Coal and Live Stock
Movements Make It impos-
sible to Got Cars.

Western railroads have once
more encountered the freight car
shortage and within the next ten
days il gives promise OF becoming
the most acute i'm the history of
traffic operations.
Until week ago there were
plenty of cars for the transporta-
tion of all commodities. Sud
denly the tightening started and
now IL has reached a point where
none of the roads operating in
or out of Omaha can get hold of
as many cars as it can use. Pres
ident Mohlcr oil, the Union Pacific
sums the cause of the car short
age UP. thus:
III -licaS,- movement
of grain has set in. The run of
live stock is unusually large and
the movement of coal from the
mines is something enormous.
Added TO this, great quantities of
merchandise are going out from
factories and jobbing houses, and
then on top of all this again the
railroads have becn compelled to
handle all of the transcontincntal
freight between the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts. The slides in the
Panama canal have forced the
vessels out of the trade. and all.
of a sudden the railroads have
had to take over this enormous
tonnage
Practically all the railroad
freight men anticipate that the
car shortage will continue for
thirty to sixty days, and that as
time passes cars will be harder
to get, at least until the crest of
the grain and coal movements
has passcd.--From Omaha Bee,

The New French Rlbbon..

ferior quality. The French ribbon in-
dustry, 1t seems. was largely carried
on by men. The men went to war and
women went into the ribbon factories.
They are doing their best, but as yet
the best ribbons they can turn out are
inferior to the ribbons the Paris dress.

In scms cases the dressmakers can
make silk take the place Of ribbons.
But this poor quality of ribbons has
helped to decide the nature OF the
Trimming of autumn millinery.

MORE FUR IS SLOGAN
WHAT FASHION MAKERS DICTATE
FOR FALL WEAR.
Cuffs on Every Jacket Are Now NUNS
Hens Of Skirts and Jackets
smothered In Banda
Of Fur.

It Is probable that women will
never be persuaded to give up pieces
OF peltry that cover the shoulders; it
is the remaining savage instinct in
them to fling around their bodies the
skins Of wild beasts: this truth was
proved during the summer. when
every woman who could afford the
price Of fox. white or otherwise, ar
rayed herself in 1t. even on days when
. mosquito netting would have been
too warm q covering. She temporarily
reverted to the cave-woman.
The furriers. however. need not
spend sleepless nights wondering
where their rent is to be obtained.
for paradise is opening to them. Fur.
and again fur, and still more fur. is
the slogan Of the fashion-makers.
AZ 70 NeckpIeces.
There may not be q great quantity
Of neckpieces worn, as fashion does
not indicate any loose covering for
the shoulders that will hide their
lines, but 90 much fur is demanded
elsewhere that 1t is more probable the
furriers will spend sleepless nights
wondering where to ret It.
The cuffs, for instance. on every
jacket are now nuns. They extend
to the elbows and fare to q width Of
eight and ten inches at the hands.
This Is a part Of the Russian iniiu-
ence, and there is every reason to be-
lieve that these immense bell-shaped
accessories Will be sought by every
woman. Who likes to take up the ex-
treme thing.
In addition to: such lavish use of
peltry on the sleeves, the hens of
skirts. as we'll as Jackets, are smoth-
cred In bands Of fur. Evening wraps
are In the nature Of Russian coats.
and one Of the newest. by Callot, has
entire sleeves Of fur that are shaped
out from the shoulders into great
