Some Of the loveliest days of the
year come after the heat of the
summer is done and the colors
come to roost on the trees. Days
cool and invigorating that bring
out as many new clothes as there
are motors on the roads and
crowds at the football games.
Because the new fall coat is the
most important purchase to be
made right now, here is a drawing
of two of the smartest seen. Sport
coats they are, but with a spirited
style and distinction that make
the sport coats of other seasons
appear drab and uninteresting.
There is the plaid, a little bolder
and more yiyacious than any that

Decided unique was the dinner and
cabaret dance given last Thursday
night by the Normal seniors, and
equally successful.
Each of the seniors was privileged
to invite guests. Just before seven
the doors of the big Normal dining
hall were thrown open and the hunt
for place cards began, each senior
having table and places reserved at
it for his or her guests.
1t was turkey and everything that
went with ito get the menu dis
posed of, so attention may be given
to all the other attractive features.
First, the decorations: A table in the
center Of the room-all the other ta-
bles were ranged around the sides, to
leave a large central open space-was
surmounted by huge corucopia, from
which had tumbled all kinds of fruit
and pumpkins and other products of
the farm, orchard and garden, while
surrounding the table were upright
sheaves of wheat. From the center
Of the ceiling alternate black and or
ange streamers extended almost to
the walls, on the end of each suspend
ed paper turkey.
In one corner was big electric
moon. In other places there were
other things, significant of Thanks
giving.
At every table there were hilarious
caps to wear and horns to blow hi
lariously, and they were worn and
blown.
Following repletion with food
daintily served by Normal girl stu
dents, there was a violin solo by Miss
Arliss Miller, vocal solo by Miss
Clara Johnson and a piano improvi-
sation by Miss Katherine Beckwith,
who had accompanied the soloists. All
the numbers were encored enthusias-
tically.
Then came dancing, Mrs. Bud Wa
ters furnishing the music. It was
midnight before the guests left, each
tired and happy.
Master Warren Brinton, son of Mr..
and Mrs. w. H. Brinton, celebrated
his ninth birthday Saturday by enter

an afternoon of interesting games.

STEGEMAN BELIEVED DOPED,
ROBBED BEFORE COLLISION

A clipping from an Albuquerque,
New Mexico, newspaper tells in detail
the facts about the death of Garet III.
Stegeman. a former Miller resident,
who was killed in an automobile ac-
cident last week.
The clipping reads:
Garet II. Stegeman, Sol Columbia
avenue, retired banker of Chicago,
died at a local hospital Tuesday NOR
ming at 5 o'clock as a result of injur-
les he received in an accident which
occurred when the automobile he was
driving crashed into a City Electric
street car at 18th street and Central
Avenue shortly after s o'clock Mon
day night.
That the accident may have been
the aftermath of an attemft-on the
part OF one or several men of Old AL
buquerque to stupefy his with bootleg
whisky so that they might steal an
$4,000 diamond ring which he wore
was considered a possibility Tuesday.
ID. G.. Hamilton, friend OF Stegeman
Tuesday was confering with police
officials and members of the sheriff's
office in the hope that a sweeping in
vestigation might be started to- clear
up the events leading to the fatal ac-
cident.
The failure of guards kept on duty
at the scene of the accident to find
the valuable ring, which was at first
thought lost in the wreck, caused the
sherif's officials to advance the
theory that the ring may have been
stolen from Stegeman before he left
Old albuquerque.
Those who visited the wreck say
there was a slight odor of liquor and
we're of the opinion that Stegeman
had been drinking. Hamilton, how
ever, Tuesday, was of the opinion that
Stegeman was not a man who would
have been likely to have drunk to
the stage OF intoxication.
The ring which Stegeman wore was
an unusually large one and would
have attracted attention anywhere.
Hamilton says. Efforts were being
made also TO ascertain if Stegeman
had any money on his person when he
went to Old Albuquerque.
Stegeman was badly injured in the
crash, having sustained a crushed
chest, internal injuries and many cuts
and bruises. His left arm which was
run over by a wheel of the street car
was nearly severed. Examination by
physicians showed that besides hav-
ing a crushed chest, some part OF the
auto had punctured the chest just
above the heart.
According to the story of Mrs. Dor
orthy Phelps, motorette on the street
car. she was proceeding west on Gen.
trail avenue when Stegeman. going In
the opposite direction crashed into the
street car. He vas driving the auto
on the wrong side of the street, she
said. and endeavored to ross to the
other side, just as he neared the troll
ley car.
The motorette says she stopped the
street car so suddenly that it jumped
the track. When the crash came. the
auto. a Chandler, was piled up in a
mass of w~reckage. Stegeman being
pinned underneath.

PIERRE TAKES
SHUT-OUT GAME
Errors and Lack Of Hits Hands
Pierre Game by Score Of so

Miller dropped a very poorly played
game at the capitol city Sunday be-
fore a crowd of about three hundred
fans. The local boys all took a bait
ing slump and their fielding averages
suffered accordingly. Clark of Miller
pitched a wonderful game striking out
fourteen meL and allowing but six
hits, three of these in the eight in
ming, but his support cracked at crit
ical times allowing Pierre to score
eight runs, only n of which was
earned.
But two of Miller's men reached
third. in the 7th Clark doubled. went
TO third on an infeld out, and was
caught at the plate on an attempted
steal. In the eighth McCorthy singled
stole second, reached third on an
out, and died on base when the last
man up was called put on strikes.
Pierre scored In the first on two err
rors and a stolen base. Two more
were added in the fourth on a com
bination of five errors, two in
the sixth on a two Dagger and an err
ror, one more I'm the seventh on a
single and a couple of errors. The
eighth inning added three on an err
ror, a single, an error, and two two
baggers, the only earned run COM
ing in this inning.
The next gam will be played on the
local diamond with Rec Heights as
