right hand.
Witnesses said that the shot
which set off the ARRAY was acct
dental. The first shot, they said,
was fired from Ruiz's revolver
while friends were trying to dis
arm him.
Firing then began from the doors
of the chamber, allegedly from pri-
vate citizens from Jalisco, enemies
of the Governor, Colonel Ignacio
de Ia Mora.
The shooting was the result of
discussion of the official acts of
Governor de la Mora. Ruiz was at
tempting to address the chamber,
although it had been adjourned
quickly to avoid trouble, when the
firing began.

It is now twenty-five feet high and twenty-four inches in cir conference at the ground.
 At that time each town and city in the state was given a "Consti- tutional Oak" which was planted in some suitable place. The one that came to Waterbury was given to former Mayor Francis P.

Grown up baby buntings are
wrapping themselves in furS
this spring and summer, furs SO
fine and supple that they would
astound the huntsman father of
that song famed infant. The
contrast of rich fur against the
gloss of satin, silk or sheer ch1f
fon is most alluring. The vogue
for these jackets probably is
the result of the Victorian in
fluence and the little jackets
worn by the queen of that time
But it is ably abetted by our
modern furriers for they have
wrought skins into pelts as
malleable as the finest fabrics,
perfectly matched, and so thin
and light in weight! And, oh.
what the dresSmakers are doing
with furs this spring!
For Evening Wear
Glorious ermine is used for
evening and so is the almost
equally glorious lapin for every
purpose, and mole. galyac,
broadtail, and other flat furs.
These, by some new process are
stenciled and made to look like

terms. You will see them COM
bined with other furS too, lapir
sometimes with a collar stem
ciled to represent leopard, or
with kid or galyac. They are
dyed (and perfectly in pastel
as well as dark colors. They

ness or trim tailoring and so are
suitable both for evening and

doubt, is the first color for fur
