In one of the southern states the
negroes are great patrons of mat

to find a wife for his son. went to this
agent, who handed him his list of lady
clients. Running through this the
man came upon his own wife's name,
entered as desirous of obtaining a
husband between the ages of twenty
eight and thirty. Forgetting about
his son, the darky hurried home to

AN AMUSING CASE.

Once in awhile the tedium of the
eourts in trying dry-as-dust cases is
relieved by some amusing action at
law, and this was the case last week
in New York when it was judicially
determined that for a man to put his
thumb to his nose extending his fling
ers so that his little one points at a
person and then twiddling his digits,
comes under the category Of disorder
ly conduct, says the Butte Miner.
The case at bar was on appeal from
the court of Brooklyn magistrate
who had fined Mr.. Morris Gersten-
field 50 for greeting Mr.. John Shan
non, broker, in the manner indi-
Gated.
1t appears from the evidence that
the defendant had had a falling out
with Mr. Shannon and every time he
happened to meet the broker on the
streets or in other public places he
saluted the gentleman with thumb to
nose. until Mr.. Shannon, being deeply
humiliated, appealed to the law for
protection from Mr.. Gerstenfield's S
sign of language assaults.
| The result of the trial in the lower
court was that the defendant was
mulcted in the sum of 50, from which
Judgment an appeal was taken only to
be sustained by Judge Robert H. Roy
of the Kings county court.
Judge Roy, it seems, could not find
any precedents in the law books gov
erning a case of this description, but
he quoted some historical lore upon
the subject as follows:
"Dr. Holmes, that delightful
wit and philosopher Of former
generation, remarks that there
are q good many symbols that
are more expressive than words.
"In the Knickerbocker History
of New York we read that when
William the Testy sent an ex-
pedition to treat with belligerent
powers the ambassadors who ac-
companied the expedition de-
marded the surrender of the fort
ress. In reply the Wachtmeester
applied the thumb of his right
hand to the end of his nose and
the thumb of his left hand to
the little finger of the right, and
spreading each hand like fan
made flourish with his fingers.
"No breach of the peace en-
sued but this was apparently ow-
ing to the fact that the ambassa-
dor was ignorant of the signifi-
canoe of the Wachtmeester's sal
utation. 1t is, however. recorded
that the practice became wide
spread and that up to the au-
thor's day the thumb to the nose

- NE Of the greatest compensa-
lions to the majority Of wonn-
- en-, for the advent OF the
.gray days and. signing winds OF
autumn, is that they are able TO as
sumo furs. 1t is true that rev
devotees Of fashion continued to
wear furs during the summer, out
they were mostly white peltry, which
harmonized with the diaphanous ma
tertals used for the frocks. and not
the rich, dark, luxurious skins ASSOC
ciated with cold weather.
Furs nowadays are more extern
sively worn than heretofore, and
whether you are of Fortunes elect or
one of the worlds workers, your fail
frocks must boast of fur bandtngs. no
matter how narrow.
Since in the world of dress there IS
nothing more becoming than furs we
should be thankful that we live IN
this age, and not in the time OF Ed
ward III, when only the royal fam
lily and the aristocracy were permit
ted to wear certain furs.
Fashion knows no barriers, and ap-
propriates anything she sees ut with
which to adorn her followers. Well
she knows how to use furs, and this
season tho coat suits. frocks, top
coats and millinery. with their trim
mings of peltry. are more alluring
than ever.
The Tailored Suit.
A good.looking tailored suit is your
best friend when the chill enters the
autumn air. This should be your
drst investment. and If you are wise
you will look we'll before making a
final choice. I say this because there
is such varied assortment of mod
els to choose from.
The woman with tall. we'll de-
veloped figure will find the suit with
long redingote coat much to her
liking, while her sisters with slender,

boxy Jackets which are so becoming
to petite women.
I notice that the waist lines of the
latter coats are defined by belts or
corded ornaments. while the redin-
gotes are masterpieces OF the filters

figure. All Of them are trimmed with
braiding, embroidery or bands of fur

able note which makes them ire
sistible.
While talking of frocks must not
neglect to mention that taffeta is still
the leading material where afternoon
and dance frocks are concerned. In
many instances. however, 1t forms
the trimming instead Of the founda-
ton, and must say that the full
skirted models of tulle, chiffon gren-
adine or Brussels net almost beggar
description when they are trimmed
with narrow founcings or landings
of taffeta. In viewing the many
frocks presented for our approval
was impressed by the simplicity OF
the bodices.
The more elaborate the skirts the
palmer the bodices seem to be. The
sleeves, for the most part, are long
and noticeabIy fuller. No more skim

to favor the transparent sleeve, but
many of the new designs are trimmed
with material to match that used for
the gown.

broadcloth or velvet, and has little
or no trimming. 1 fear that we will
soon grow tired of the embroidered
spray of leaves, the worsted scallop-
ing and the tassels made of yarn.
There is such similarity among
the sailors that they "all look alike
to me-" Let us hope that the MILL
ners will begin to individualize the
sailor, as one ambitious maker of hats
has succeeded in doing.
At her artistic little shop I saw
sailors of all shapes and sizes. Some
