Mrs. Kersting was thrown across one of the seats and received internal Injuries. Benjamin J. Iauta asks 15.000 damages of the Western Union Telegraph Company on account of a belated telegram sent by the plaintiff to his wife on Sept. 7. The plaintiff says that when returning from Syracuse, J. Y., he found that his train was three liours late and wired his wife to that effect, lut owing to the negligence of the defendant company the telegram did not reach its destination until nearly nine hours after he had reached home, three hours lute, and he found his wife suffering from nervous prostration.

VERDICT FOR $8oo SECURED BY HIRT A Jury in Judge Carter's court yesterday awarded Jacob Hirt firfJÖ damages against Am'jony Marcaric for malicious prosecution. The trouble oocurred some time ago, when Marcaric was exciivuting a cellar at Ray and Delaware streets. Hirt, who drives one of the dead auimal wagons owned by Joseph Haas, loaned one of his employer's wheelbarrows to Marcaric, and when Hlrt went to get it last Eaütr Mar carlo and about seventy-flve other Italians objected to the removal of the barrow. Hirt, however, loaded it on his wagon and chained It down with log chains and started down the street, followed by the crowd of angry Italians, who jeered at him. and the defendant tried to cut the chains with his pnkulfe. Someone called the police, who placed Hlrt under arrest and charged him with trespassing and the theft of the wheelbarrow. He was fined feu and costs in Police Court next morning. Hirt then tiled suit against Marcaric for malicious prosecution. CANNOT RECOVER FOR ACT OF BRAVERY A Jury In Judge McMaster's court yesterday returned a verdict for the Indianapolis Traction and Terminal Company in the $5.000 damage suit brought against it by Wll.lam A. Haehl to recover for personal Injuries received in rescuing a three-year-old child from being ground to death under the wheels of a street car in April. 1902. Haehl was a passenger on a Stockyards car going south ou West street at a rapid rate of speed. He was sitting in the front part of the car. and saw the little girl walking across the tracks. The motorman had failed to see her. When the car was within four feet of her Haehl rushed to the trout end of the car and jumped off iu time to seize the little girl's dress and Jerk her from In front of the car. The girl was unhurt, but Haehl was not so fortunate. His cheek bone was broken and his set of false teefh were broken, lacerating his mouth. Thomas L. McK limey's Suit. Thomas L. MV.viusey yesterday filed a suit for Injunction against Oliver P. Ensley, treasurer of Marion county, to prevent him from levying upon goods for delinquent taxes which are in the custody of the plaintiff and located at IS North West street. The plaintiff says that the defendant has threatened and Is threateuing to take the goods and s a them, pretending that he is authorized by law to sell them for delinquent taxes. McKlnsey claims that the goods are worth lesthaa $lo0. and ho Indiana law holds that goods of a less value than $100 are not subject to levy. The matter will be heard before Judge Allen.

GOWNS FOR THE SUNNY SOUTH SHOW THE COMING SPRING STYLES

The 1 8 JO Fashions, nith Twentieth Century Modifications, Are Undoubtedly to Reign and Are Attractive

Correspondence of the Indiana poll? Journal. NEW YORK. Eeb. 3. The Southern season is at its height. As we shiver through the damp, unpleasant days here in Gotham. we are regaled with accounts of the balmy air. the ideal beach, the outdoor life at Palm Beach and at Santa Barbara, of the delights of the piney woods at Aitkin and of sundry other joys from which we stay-at-homes are debarred. Each day carries forth trains loaded with pleasure seekers and were our town a whit less big and cosmopolitan wj should begin to feel a sense of desertion, so large are the crowds that weekly desert its piercing midwinter climate. As it is we feel an occasional twinge of envy, mayhap, or a sense of longing to step aboard the outgoing train, but otherwise are conscious only that there must be an exodus of some sort, for In the midst of snow and ice summer gowns greet one at every turn, straw hats are offered on every side and one and all we know that it will be many weeks before such will be welcome here. The view is a pleasant one, however, and brings the conviction that warm days are somewhere in the future in addition to urging us on a bit to make preparation therefor. As I have already told you, spring and summer fabrics are being lavishly displayed and the general tendencies of fashion are fairly well underStood so that dressmakers are In a position to take orders and there is every inducement to get work out of the way while the weather is still dismal, to prepare for the bright days well in advance and so be in readiness to revel in the sunshine when once more it Moods our streets and tempts us out of doors. Among the many excellent models I have seen it is possible only to select a few for description, but even a few will serve to show what direction is to be followed and to indicate the tendencies ol la mode. That 183U styles are to hold is an established fact. We are to be broad of shoulder and full of skirt the spring and summer through, and, as th'.n fabrics lend themselves to such treatment peculiarly well, results are charmingly picturesque and present attractions by the score. Linens, foulards, veiling, barege and muslins make the predominating materials, with a few exceedingly smart costumes in the new fancy Sicilian mohairs that promise to be much worn. The linen costumes are of two sorts, the plain and the elaborate, but foulards, liberties and muslins are all much frilled and much trimmed, bringing vividly to mind all the dear old-time portraits at which we have smiled many times. A PICTCREfGOWN. As lovely a muslin as even those dear old dames, who reveled in the true East Indian material, could have asked is made with a hip yoke and much elaborate hand work. The yoke is all a mass of fine tucks. Below it is a wide portion all of embroidery, which is in the leaf design familiar in all Parisian shawls, the scaUoped edge being for the top and arranged over the edge of the yoke. Below is a deep flounce of the embroidery that is tucked at its upper edge and Joined to the band by fagoting ad to the lower edge of which a hem Is fagoted on. The blouse is full, laid in fine tucks for several inches below the yoke of the embroidery, and Includes big sleeves with embroidered caps that continue the line o. the yoke and give the long, drooping line. With it are to be worn sashea of liberty ribbon, white or colored as occasion demands. A second muslin also is sheer and fine, but is made with a three-flounced skirt of embroidery, each flounce tucked at its upper edge, and is pf round length that is resting a bit on the floor all round. The blouse is the favorite full one that is tucked below a drop yoke of embroidery and closed at the back, but the sleeves are wide, in b K style, with embroidered edges and fall over huge puffs on each of which are two wide frills of Valenciennes lace and which are gathered into narrow cuffs. At the waist is a deep draped belt of ivory louisine satin that is most charming. There has been much talk of foulards falling off in favor, but I see no evidence thereof, although, to be sure, the satin finish Is the favorite and Liberty satins and the light-weight taffetas, once known as summer silks, are equally well liked. The new designs and colors are really fascinating and the material itself is far too comfortable and satisfactory to be surrendered without a struggle. All tan. brown and the lighter champagne shades are much in vogue. As lively and as tjpically smart a gown as any yet seen is tan color flecked with white and trimmed with frills of Valenciennes lace and tiny brown satin ribbon. The skirt is made after what promises to be a favorite style the season through, and is plain for a narrow space at the front, shirred to form a hip yoke at sides and back, below which it falls in soft, full folds. At the lower edge Is a flounce, the upper edge of which Is cut in scallops that are edged with narrow white Valenciennes lace, below which is a tiny frill of the brown ribbon, and which is shirred below the scallops thut form a heading. At the lower edge of the flounce is a narrow frili to match that is scalloped and lace finished at both edges, and above the flounce at a distance of a few inches is an inset of fine white embroidered batiste with two frills above, all terminating at the edges of the plain front panel. The bodice Is very broad, very full and In every way typical. It is a blouse, as a matter of course, and is closed at the back. The yoke is of white embroidery like that on the skirt, and below It is a wide circular bertha that is completely covered with alternating scalloped and lace-edged frills and puffings of the silk, with the frills at the edges. The sleeves are really huge puffs above deep cuffs that are of plain silk and show frills falling over the hands and again arranged upon the puffs, so adding to their apparent sise. At the waist is a deep draped corselet belt of the soft satin, and the entfre costume makes a study of color as well as design. The silks themselves are exquisite this season and show colors and designs that not alone are charming in the piece, but which lend tlumselves to successful gowns exceptionally well. WILL BE ARTISTIC. What with that condition and the really graceful styles in vogue there is every reason to look for a season of artistic dress, as well as of smartness, if I may venture to use that much abused word that so often is made to stand for the m rely bizarre in place of for the truly good founded on principles of art; but the note of warning needs sounding, nevertheless, for, unless one be wary and choose wisely, there is danger in the very beauty that tempts us to forget personal needs. No woman is truly well gown -d who is not dressed in a way to bring out her good points to conceal her delects. No matter how smart a model may be, if it does not suit the individual it will not make a satisfactory effect, onlv by bearing this essential truth In mind and adapting the style to suit her needs can THUMB OF MICHIGAN IS STILL SNOW-BOUND Drifts Fill in Behind the SnowPlows as Past as They Open a Stretch of Track. DETROIT. Feb. 4. Storm reports from the "Thumb" district of Michigan to-night are disapiointlng. A snow plow which succeeded in working south from Harbor Beach to Port Huron, yesterday, was started northward to-day, but on the return trip has made little progress. The IVre Marquette line, being exposed to the winds from Lake Huron, is buried In snow drifts before the opening made by the snow plow can be made use of. It is ninety miles from Port Huron to Port Austin, and reports received to-night showthat the snow plow and relief train which started at 2 p. m. hnd worked northward only about twenty miles. Heal Eatute ent Kill Himself. SIOl'X FALLS. S. D.. Feb. 4. Win field 8. WelUver. of the real estate firm of Sexton & Welllver. shot and killed himself in his office here this afternoon. No reason is known. Welllver left a note addressed to his wife, but it has not been opened, Air;.-. Waliiver is prostrated.

any woman really attain distinction, yet so often are otherwise shrewd buyers tempted by merely intrinsic beauty and so often do we see the dire results therefrom that i, i j . . ... . .

it wouiu seem as tnousli the fact were I often overlooked. tiarege, that most charming and graceful of fabrics, is to be much worn, and is found In almost every Southern outfit. A most exquisite one, that serves admirably well as a model for tip later suits of the stay-at-homes as weil as tor the immediate ones for the more lucky sisterhood, is woven in a tiny check, tuu and white, and is made ' er pale blue, the color . fleet being a most pleasing one. The foundation skirt of softfinished taffeta is gored aud closely fitted, finished at its Ioait edge with a plisse frill, but the outer akflSt is amply full, plain at the front, but shirred In groups at sides and back. At the lower edge are three wide tucks, with two plisse frills above and at knee depth are two tucks w;h ouc frill above, all the frills terminating at the left of the front, where they are curved upward and finished with small fiat rosettes. The coat is a blouse that droops over a wide diaped belt thut combines blue silk with striped, white and gunmetal gray. There is a soft full front of blue chiffon, with a standing collar, and the blouse proper shows three horizontal tucks, while at the neck is a shallow yoke of the striped silk that is cut to form points at the shoulders, and below it falls a wide, pointed bertha or little cape of white fillet net overlaid with motifs of ecru embroidery which is edged with a tiny plisse frill of the barege. The sleeves are big puffs, tucked and trimmed wnli two tiny frills that are allowed to droop over deep cuffs of hilet lace aud applique to match the bertha. The biue with the tan aud white is most charming, and the stripes give a Preachy touch that seems only to be described as chic, while the whole costume is a model of grace; but any number of good results can be obtained with fewer materials, aud, indeed, such are safer by far for all but the expert. The Parisian designer knows just how to combine the stripes of silk with the checked barege to add to the effect, but iu the dressmaker's art, as In other more vital matters, it often is but a step from the sublime, or the exquisite, to the ridiculous, and attempted copies often are hopelessly bad. What the costume does serve for admirably well, however. Is a model of cut aud of lines which are tru.y graceful, and which would still remain even though the combination were far less elaborate. UTILITY COSTUMES. Traveling and general utility costumes are made from the new mohairs and from light-weight cheviots and tweeds, but those of mohair are somewhat newer and have the great merit of shedding dust and of being light in weight. Some are striped, some are plaid, but there is a great preference shown for the latter, which are green and blue or green, blue and black and quite small. Among the stripes dark blues and browns predominate, but are woven to give stripes of quite different effects, while color is all one, and are flecked with white. A most useful and stylish traveling costume is the plaid and combines one of the latest kilted skirts with a severe Eton jacket, such being decreed among other good things. The jacket calls for no special description, being plain with coat sleeves and regulation collar aud lape's, but the skirt is novel. Front and sides are circular and meet a kilted flounoe that Is slightly graduated, of about knee depth at the front, and the two meet a full-length kilted back that is quite narrow aud pressed very flat. The circular portion is hemmed and stitched, and beneath the hems the plaited portions are attached and its back sdgn I are held by handsome buttons, the skirt Just clearing the ground. A more elaborate walking costume is of supple cloth in plain biue aud is trimmed with velvet, white cloth and cream lace. The skirt, which also includes a kilted flounce, is made with the upper plain portion extending to the back in severest habit style, but terminating at the edges of the front gore, which Is plain and narrow aud cut in one with the flounce. This upper portion is cut to form points at the front and shows all its edges piped with velvets, while the plaits of the flounce are stitched for about one-third of their length. The coat is an Eton, with slightly pointed fronts and an applied portion that extends over the shoulders on to the sleeves and at both front and back to give a pelerine suggestion, and the inevitable broad shoulders, while the neck is finished with a fiat-shaped collar of velvet piped with white cloth and the fronts with a narrow vest of the same finished with stole ends of lace. The sleeves are wide and quite new in coats of the sort, but eminently becoming and smart. They are in bell shape with velvet applications at their edges and fall over full puffs of the heavy lace that are gathered into deep velvet cuffs. A suit of an Intermediate sort, one that is useful for many occasions, is made of finest cloth in hunters' green and Is combined with oyster-white cloth, overlaid with waved silk braid showing old rose, green and white and with self-colored velvet. In this last instance the skirt Is quite untrlmmed, but Is plaited in groups of three. The Eton is a plain and smoothly fitted one, but is overlaid with a shaped portion of cloth that extends over the shoulders and gives a suggestion of the cape effect, while in reality stitched flat. The neck shows the universal flat collar, which Is of velvet, and there Is a tiny vest of the white cloth and braid, while the sleeves are shaped to form puffs below the elbows and are held by deep cuffs that suggest the gauntlet shape and are finished at their upper edges with bands of oyster cloth edged with velvet. THINNER MATERIALS. Linens and all similar materials are seen both In shirtwaist style and with fancy waists, as well as made Into jacket suits. One notable fact is the return of the circular flounce, and another is the odd way in which berthas and upper portions of sleeves are cut in one, so making no dividing line at all. A most charming reseda linen is, for example, combined with a heavy white lace yoke and shows a wide bertha and drooping sleeves of this sort. The sleeves are cleverly shaped and somewhere join the unders, the two together being gathered into cuffs, but to the casual observer the method is a mystery, for no seams are in view. Again we see charming costumes mode with skirts and triple capes of linen worn with finest lingerie waists, which show cuffs and collar of the linen or some touch or touches that connect them therewith, giving no suggestion of odd waists. A really lovely one combines violet with white and shows the skirt of heavy linen trimmed with bands of the material embroidered with French knots, while the capes are edged with bands, below which are falls of heavy lace, and extend only to the edges of the vest front of the blouse. Yokes of the drop sort and very deep, too, wire seen, and these are often made of bands of the material forming a lattice, through which the sheer muslin of the bod lev appears. All sorts of novelties, in fact, are shown, and skirts arc made in countless variations that one and all give the same general outline. One of the newest shows a yoke that is extended to form a narrow front, side and back gores, while between these are others shirred at their upper edges and joined to the yoke. With this the waist is a blouse, with deep drop yoke, edged with point 'c Venise, and full, wide sleeves held by deep cuffs of lace, the entire gown being white. MAY M ANTON. YAQUIS STOP STAGE AND KILL SIX PERSONS GUAY AM AS, Mexico. Feb. 4. Passengers arriving from Ortiz brought the first news of a terrible outrage committed by Yaqui Indians. The stage which ruus between Ortiz and Las Cruces was held up by savages, and all on board, six persons, were killed. Among them were Salvador Flores and his nephew, Francisco Flores. both prominent In Sonora. There were fifty of the Indians, according to the recollection of Francisco Flores. who did not expire until he was picked up by a party of vacqueros traveling in the opposite direction. A detachment of mounted troops from Ortiz has gone in pursuit of the Indians. BIG BUSINESS BLOCK SINKS ABOUT SIX FEET CHICAGO, Feb. 4. Divers were ordered to-day to explore the big water tunnel that crosses the center of the business district of Chicago, sixty feet below the surface. The purpose of the exploration is to discover, if possible, the cause of the dangerous settling of a business block in Fifth avenue.

v cypres mm I LAI 1 1 LUU nULMIU ARE TO BE ARRESTED They Acted as Agents of Liquor Companies Without Paying the Special Stamp Tax. EVASION OF ALL LAWS KANSAS CITY. Feb. 4.-Wholosale indictments by the federal grand jury of express agents in Kansas. City, throughout Kansas and in the prohibition counties of Texas and of liquor deaiers who have been shipping liquor into those prohibition States are imminent, the result of a movement started by John W. Yerkes, commissioner of internal revenue at Washington. The local agents of three large wholesale liquor houses, it was announced to-day. were indicted yesterday and arrested, but released on their own recognizance, and additional bills will, it is said, be found against the agent of every express company in Kansas City, In the State of Kansas and in the prohibition counties of Texas who have acted as agents for the liquor houses in selling whisky as fast as the evidence against them can be presented. For years practically every express company in this .part of the Southwest has acted as the agencies for liquor companies who have sold liquor in Kansas and Texas, the express agents of the different companies acting nominally as agents at the various points, thus practically nullifving the prohibition law. To avoid the law" the whisky was sent in sealed packages addressed to fictitious names and sold by the agents for "express charges." Millions of cases of whisky have been sent into Kansas yearly, and for each case disposed of the express agents were allowed 50 cents. This naturally has proved not only a violation of the prohibition laws of the States named, but has deprived the federal government of an immense amount of revenue. WASHINGTON, Feb. 4. Commissioner of Revenue Yerkes to-day said his office had not yet been informed as to actions brought against express agents either In Kansas or Texas; that If arrests had been made or prosecutions begun It was probably due to the fact that the local internal revenue officials had learned that express agents and others were having goods shipped to them by wholesale liquor dealers and are selling and delivering them without having taken out the special ttuc stamp required by internal revenue laws. No sales of liquor can be made legally by a person who has not paid the government special tax. and if these agents have sold packages of spirits to persons in their respective places of business, without having taken out the special tax stamp then they are liable to prosecution.
