A gang of surveyors who are making the survey for the new Lafayette-Chicago electric line, reached Crown Point last evening and are working toward Griffith today. The line as surveyed so far runs from Lafayette, through Remington, Rensselaer and Hebron, and follows the Fanhandle from Hebron to Crown Point along the same route as surveyed for the C. & I. E. last winter. Slow progress Is being made in the work of securing the right-of-way for the Gary and Crown Point electric line. The trustees, who are to have the custody of the right-of-way deeds, have not a3 yet organized or formulated any plans, and the matter is at a standstill. Considerable opposition to donating a free right-of-way has been encountered, and the probabilities are that the entire right-of-way will have to be bought and paid for by subscription. , The marriage of Dr. E. E. Geisel to Miss Bernice Brown occurred at the bride's home on South Main street last evening at 7 o'clock. Only the immediate relatives were present.

To the Editor of The Lake County Times: Dear Sir: I have in hand a copy of vour issue of titc 20th containing ac count of final proceedings on Oct. 19th at inv trial in Justice Martin's court on the charge of "criminal libel While thanking you kindly for the gen eral fairness of your report, allow me space to correct two improper state ments, similar to those into which the Chicago Tribune also generally fair has fallen. I did not openly pass the lie, but merely whispered, "That's lie," in the ears of the gentleman in a chair next to me. I am sure that the tone of my voice v-s so low that it could scarcely be audible to anyone else. The other mistake was stating that I was slapped in the face. What did occur was this: Before leaving the room the "fair plaintiff," as you designate her, bumped heavily against me, (nearly upsetting a lady by my side), and exclaimed: "I've not done with you yet." It is not my custom to try my case in the papers I may well let the value of vile statements made regarding me be judged by the language, habits and conduct of those inveigling against Your truly, THOS.

Watch for "THE LITTLE THE ETEKXAL FEMININE My Dear Martha: New York seems to have donned Its winter garb in sober earnest and though the weather is far from cold, we are simply deluged with the far display not only in shop windows, mark you, but on the avenue, which of afternoons seems positively to ache with its burden of fashionables. With the return of the turban and tcques to popularity is linked the demand lor fur hats as they are only really smart in that model and the fur turban is about the only head adornineni. whic.i is not copied in cheap shops. Jome of the astounding model hats are a dis tinct warning of what not to buy. The elaborate hats witli crudely garish combinations of color and material are a freak of the moment and consequent ly extravagant Investments. I suppose it is one of the usual incongrui ties of life, but it is equally strange, that while the Play liouse is un doubtedly the place to view the most beautiful in gowns, actresses will invariably adopt the silliest specimens in exaggerated millinery. Miss Lillian Russell is almost the only woman I can recall this ' season who has selected her hats with an eye to the becoming apart from fads. Miss Harned's clothes are very smart but her hats are atrocious. In one act she wears a car riage gown of pale blue broadcloth trimmed with embroidered bands and soutache braid of the self color. It is built on the princess linen with the in evitable empire back. It has one of those short chic little coats which hang in loose box plaits and are only saved from being capes by the Inser tion of sleeves. The tea gown Is the display par excellence. It is of white chiffon brocaded with hydrangeas which are gloriously mingled with blue, pink and maue tones. These velvet flowers are woven into the material and were afterwards painted by hand in those delicate natural tints. The lines are decidedly empire, as this style is particularly fashionable for all home gowns of this sort. The lace is dyed the hydragnea colors and used in profusion around the feet. The profeslonal women set us one example which we would do well to follow rigidly. They do not aim above all else to wear gowns representing fashion's latest whimsical mandate, but their frocks are well built to bring out the best points of the wearer, and if frills offend frills are abandoned; they make their costumes as much a part of themselves as their voice and gestures and except where effects are employed to portray a character, they never over-dress the society does that a plenty. So far, while the showing at the theaters has been modish, there has been no brilliant display of gowns. Even in Grace George's play, 'Clothes," the costumes are nothing to excite rapturous comment; the play is so called because the people talk of nothing else. The horse show and opera promise to give a bewildering showing for every one makes the most of these opportunities. Vain and hollow as the tales of frills may be, they are part and parcel of the fine, womanly art of being charming. Always, JANE. Trepoff Fairly Warned. Some 18 months ago Gen. Trepoff received the following letter on his return to St. Petersburg, after having attended the funeral of the Grand Duke Sergius: "Monsieur: We regret that you were put to so much trouble in devising a means of escaping from Moscow without being killed. We desire to make your mind easy on this score. You have nothing to fear in the streets or in theaters, or in any of the public places. You will simply be killed in your own bedroom." Milk Displacing Alcohol In a speech at the Bishopsgate institute Sir Victor Horsley gave some remarkable figures to show how the use of alcohol in hospitals is declining. In 1S62 nearly $40,000 was spent on alcohol in the London hospitals and $15,000 in milk; in 1902 the situation was almost exactly reversed.

CHURCH SERVICES

womanclal address by Rev. Dr. W. A. Quayle,

pastor St. James' M. E. church, of Chicago. Good music. Cordial welcome to all. Jackdaw as Companion. There is a tame jackdaw at WorkIngham, England, which has acquired so much intelligence as to accompany its master, a baker, on his delivery rounds. Occasionally it flies to a house or tree top, regaining with a long swoop the cart as the horse trots along the road. The bird and its master are on the best of terms, and a whistle from the latter brings the Jackdaw back to the cart from a considerable distance, invariably with a caw of satisfaction. Prof. Eliot Vas Obliging. President Eliot of Harvard is no believer in the Rooseveltian spelling reform. A young student was a candidate for the degree of doctor of philosophy. This man adopted spelling reform as his particular line of work, and as commencement day drew near he went to President Eliot with a request. "You know, Mr. President,' he said, "that you are proposing to make me a Ph. D. Now, I have made a specialty of spelling reform, and I always spell philosophy with an 'f. I therefore called to ask you if yoa could not make my degree F. D. Instead of Ph. D." "Certainly, my dear." replied the president of Harvard. "In fact, if you insist, we shall make it a D. F."
