This lovely delicate fabThe Independent shippers of grain to ric is still used in every possible way. Chicago begin to realize that they have Over every shade of color black chiffou

, eim 10011 obstacle to surmount. The professional grain shippers over a

dozen big states tributary to Chicago number an army. Many of them have crown rich from the farmers’ wagons by a 25 years’ stay at their stations. Some of them have private banks, some have bought farms, all are prosperous. This house has not a word against these people. It is not doing business with them. It is doing business with an army of farmers. It has given producers the best practical help since the railroads made the big central markets possible. If 10.000 farmers have discovered that they have no further use for 1,000 country grain buyers, they have a perfect right to go past them, fill their own cars, and ship their own grain. Many years ago farmers discovered that the old reaper and the old double shovel one-horse corn cultivator were too slow. They left them in the fence corners and bought improved machinery. The manufacturers did not kick. They met the demand "^itb self-bind-ers and riding sulky plows. The world has grown tired of many old things. The farming world is getting tired of paying others to do what it can do Itself. If farmers wish to desert the local shippers (who may have been needed 40 years ago), no amount of muleishness on the part of the shipcan stop them. Grain shippers an organ to keep up their courage. Their publication has again filled its columns with abuse of the farmers commission house. It is a case of sore toe. They howl because they are hurt. The farmers understand this sort of warfare made on the house which has put them in touch with Chicago.

is deemed appropriate. A beautiful gown of green satin, cut princ.'sse, had a vest of black chiffon covered with a handsome applique pattern in velvet, outlined with the finest gold cord. The sleeves were formed of frillings edged

with lace.

Pink is so becoming to youth that it is much worn. One pretty gown of pink crepe de chine has horizontal rows of lace let into the bodice beneath a lace-frilled cape, while five gathered tucks appear below the waist. Pink taffetas formed the slip under-

neath.

A charming gown had the entire skirt of coarse Brussels lace applique mounted on white chiffon veiling white satin, the chiffon lending a more subdued tint to the yellow of the lace; the little bolero over the waist was of shot blue-and-whlte silk, exquisitely embroidered in silks, edged with Maltese lace with a full front of white t hiffon drawn in at the waist by a belt

of blue chiffon.

Mousseline de sole and chiffon have seemingly reached the acme of perfection in coloring and design, the black with floral chine patterns being especially handsome over colored silks. Lovely skirts are made of the sun-ray accordion plaiting in cbiffon and the mousseline, though they are not espec-

; ially durable.

Tulle skirts are covered from hem to waist with tiny ruchings and the j amount of labor expended in making i one is something to turn the hair gray, j Cerise and flame-colored gauzes with j faint chine patterns are being sent over from Paris, the bodices cut square, the sleeves rutiled and transparent. A charming garden frock could be I made of patterned crepe de chine, with a vest of soft white lisso or lace insertions in white or black. Little frills of lace should fall down on either side

of the chiffon vest.

Chiffon, which has hitherto been considered proper in the shape of entire gowns, only for evening wear, is now nftide up for daytime in light pink, jellow, heliotrope, blue and spring green. The skirts are made with

Daniel Webster was extraordinarily fond of oxen, and all those on his farm knew him by sight and would follow

him like dogs.

Of the 26 senators who served terms in the lower house before coming to the senate, Senator Mills, of Texas, served longest, his term being from

1873 to 1892.

Secretary Gage will next Tuesday be given a dinner in Boston by the busi-. ness men of that city. The mayor of Boston and the governor of Massachusetts will also be guests. Senator Charles J. Faulkner, of West Virginia, has carried a bullet in his right leg ever since the war. It was fired from a revolver which he himself was handling carelessly. Hon. Horace Chapman, Democratic gubernatorial canuidate for Ohio, is said to have a remarkably tug voice. A prominent Ohio politician said recently that no one could confer with Mr. Chapman, because "his voice could be heard all over the state.” President McKinley, who has accepted an invitation to the G. A. R. encampment at Fremont, O., for September 2, will probably meet there William I J. Bryan. exPresident Cleveland and Horace Chapman, the Democratic nominee for governor of Omo. Bill Nye, when shown the state of North Carolina from Lookout Mountain, drew a map from his pocket, and said; ’’Here is a map of the United states, and you can see for yourself that North Carolina is pink. That is not North Carolina over there.” James Whitcomb Riley, when asked recently how he could help a young poet to succeed, replied: "He must hammer out his own success. He must work steadily. He must study the meanings and values of words. He must be patient. He must not be in too great a hurry.” I Senator Mason recently asked Senator Morgan, of Alabama, bow long he could talk on a subject of which he knew asolutely nothing. “Well,” answered Morgan, with a smile, "if it was a matter about which I knew absoI lutely nothing, I do not think I could talk more titan two days.”

HARLES CL1F FORD 1 illod hi

wife and than committed adicide :u Chicago the other morning. Jealousy is supposed o have

been the cause. Clifford, hi-s Wile and the!; daughut

Musetta, II years old, residt I in the

rear of a small restaurant and confectionery store conducted by Mrs. Clifford. John Morris, who operates the Lion laundry at 300 Rush street opened his shop at 6; 30 o'clock, according to his usual custom. He noticed that the morning rolls and the full milk can of his neighbor lay tin touched on the doorstep,and he stepped to the low window to call them, as h> had often done before. Neither Cli? ford nor his wife responded, but the girl Musetta, bearing the call from the •oom adjoining that of her mother, where she had been sleeping, slipped out of bed and went into her mother’s

room.

The sunlight that fell upon the bed through the half-closed shutters gleamed on crimson bed clothing, on a revolver by the lied side, and on the blood stained bodies of her parents. Screaming with fright, the girl ran to the door and called Morris, who after hastily looking into the room, went to call the police. Then it was discovered that Mrs. Clifford's throat had been cut by her husband, and that he had shot himself in the right temple. Each apparently had died instantly, for there was no evidences of a struggle. Mrs. Clifford's body lay in the night clothing in a natural position, with the head resting on the pillow as if in sleep. The body of Clifford lay across the foot ot the bed, clad in underclothing and trousers only. The woman’s throat apparently had been cut with one stroke of a butcher knife, which lay with the revolver beside the bed. Her face and the whole upper part of tin bed were stained with the blood from her wound. The police took possession of the bodies, and a search was begun for some thing that would throw light upon the motive of the crime. In the pocket of Clifford’s trousers were found tw> notes addressed to Mrs. Clifford and signed by Gust A. Fenner, a recently appointed police officer residing at 345 Grand avenue. They were on paper bearing the heading of the police department, bore dates of Aug. 3 and Aug. 4, and apparently had been re ceived by Mrs. Clifford while on a trit to S!. Joseph. Mich. They were as follows: No.l: "Chicago,Aug.3.—Mrs. L. M. Clifford, 119 State street, St. Joseph, Mich.: I will leave here tomorrow (Wednesday) evening by the night boa at 11:30 o’clock for St. Joe. Hoping you are well and having a good time I remain respectfully yours, Gust A Fenner.” No. 2: "Chicago. Aug. 4 Mrs. L. M. Clifford, St. Joe, Mich.: Impossible to leave on tonight's boat, bu ! will leave on Thursday (tomorrow' morning boat at 9:30 o'clock. Meet me and bring your lady friends with you Y'ours. etc.. Gus.” Fenner was appointed to the police force the day before, and had served one day at the Chicago avenue station. The finding of these notes in Clifford’s pocket has convinced the police that the murder and suicide was the result of jealousy. Clifford was 38 years old ami his wife 35. They had been married seventeen years, but during the last three years

afternoon, by the girl s story, Mrs. Clifford was chopping meat, when her husband grasped the knife and said, "How would you like me to use this on you?” Mrs. Clifford grew angry and answered, ‘Go on. kill me. Y’ou said you would often enough. Do it now. while Ella’s looking." Clifford muttered something the girl did not catch, and pu: down the

knife.

Tuesday night Mrs. Clifford and Musetta were sitting sewing, when Clifford entered and ordered the little girl out of the room. Her mother told her to sit still, and when she obeyed her mother Clifford was furiously angry. At 11 o'clock the family went to bed. It is supposed the deed was done about 4 o’clock. Morris and his wife were awakened at that time by something that sounded like a shot. Morris dec ares, but lie did not investigate it. Fenner, supposed to be the indirect cause of the murder, had known Mrs. Clifford only a week, and was introduced to her by Clifford himself, so Mrs. Morris declares. The Morrises refuse to believe that Mrs. Clifford had wronged her husband, and join with the little daughter in denouncing Clifford's temper and attitude toward his wife.

flow Oarar Sherwood Four I.eg* Cdtar Sherwood, of Euingkood's Comers. Me., says he is the only man j in the world who has lost four legs in , the service of his c nintry. The first j was wounded and amputated at Vera ; Cruz, during the Mexican war. The i second was taken off during the retreat at Bull Run by a piece of artillery passing over it. The third was ! carried away by a cannon ball at Fall Oaks. The fourth mishap was be- j fore Petersburg, when Sherwood was | sent to an underground magazine for j the purpose of learning; its ability to j stand the bombardment from Confederate shells. Perhaps it may be as well : to mention that the second leg taken | off was of cork, and the two subsequent 1 ones of willow.

'Do you mean to tell me," thundered Father Bolles, "that you have taken this girl home as your wife?” ‘Yes, I do,” said the fellow, dog-

'And you have gone willingly to live with him as your husband?” "Yes," said the frightened girl. “Then I pronounce you man and wife, and whom God hath joined together let no man put asunder.

There were three kinds ot sizes, most of them being the green so called "tree frogs” so abundant here The small ones were about an inch long, the others being two and three inches. There were millions of them and the noise they made was deafening He brought several along as specimens. It’s the general opinion here that the cloudburst brought them. This is the first time that this thing has ever happened in this section and the people are greatly excited over it. The man stated that the frogs seemed dazed ant) hardly moved as he came along.

I also suffered with falling of the womb, was very weak, tired all the time, bad such headaches as to make me almost wild. Was also troubled with leucorrhisa, and was bloated so badly that some thought I had dropsy. I have taken several bottles of Lydia E.

Clifford has had concessions for a weight machine at several places of amusement. The daughter has been for the last two years at St. Joseph's Academy o! the Sacred Heart at Cedar Rapids, la On her return last June she found that her father and mother had quarrelen and that Clifford was living alone in a west side flat. The difference was smoothed over, however, and the three were united in the little Rush street house. But. according to the daughter and the neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Morris, who have known the Cliffords for seven or eight years, Clifford's ungovernable temper made matters continually unpleasant. He suspected his wife of infidelity and made threat after threat to kill her. She In her turn grew angry, and there was anything but peace between them. Ella Anfleld, a little girl employed to help about the restaurant, told the coroner that Clifford told his wife every few days he would murder her soon blit she never believed him. Tuesday

Snake* In Her Garret. Mrs. Jacob Leldy found a nest of seven young rattlesnakes in the garret of her home.

They were in a piece of flannel lying on the floor. They darted their forked tongues at her and then dropped in a hole In the floor. Mrs. Leldy declares she heard the buzzing of a big rattlesnake when the little reptiles crawled over the floor and believes the garret is infested with rattlers.
