TWO COHNERSVILLE GIRLS THREATENED With Tar and Feathers by an Unknown Writer. Citizens Are Aroused.

(National News Association) CONNERSVILLE. Ind., Nov. 18. Threats of tarring and feathering two young women here hare aroused the citizens. The threats were made by mall and were unsigned, and the postal authorities have not yet been able to capture the offender. One of the young women is Miss Harriet Goff, formerly of Indianapolis. She has been living for several weeks with Miss Edith Hamilton in West Tenth street. The first letter came to them last Thursday and was addressed to both. It said that unless they moved in forty-eight hours they would be taken out of the neighborhood by a band of masked citizens, tarred, feathered and turned loose. In terror the girls armed with a hatchet and butcher knife, sat up all night fearing an attack. In the morning they told the police and a guard was set about the place the following night. Another letter received Friday evening warned the girls that .if they did not move within the alloted time they would not only be tarred and feathered, but whipped and rubbed with salt. The letters were well written. The only suggestion of a cause for these threats was a paragraph in Che last letter which said, "those googoo eyes of yours have made enough mischief here. They will not be allowed to make any more. Your faces, which you think so pretty, had better not show themselves here after Sunday." The young women, who are pretty and well behaved, say they have only looked pleasantly at the women and children along Tenth street. No complaint has been made against ;the girls by neighbors and they are held in high esteem. FORGOT HIS BRIDE. Cirfous Matrimonial Romance of the Eighteenth Century. Did every match based on worldly considerations turn out as charmingly . as the oie told about in Lady Russell's . book, "The Rose Goddess." English social history would be very pleasant reading. According to Lady Russell. ' Lady Sarah Cadogan was married to the second Duke of Richmond in re turn for the payment of her father's gambling debts. Lord March, as the duke then was. was eighteen; the bride was thirteen. Immediately after the wedding Lord If arch went with his tutor to the con tinent to make the "grand tour." and Lady Sarah went back to the nursery. Three years elapsed. Lord March returned from his travels with so un interesting a recollection or his bride that he was in no hurry to claim her. On the first evening of his return to ' Loni he went to the opera. ' There he soon noticed that all eyes and lorgnettes were turned toward one of the boxes. In which, surrounded by many admlrerasat a most beautiful young girl. Turning to his neighbor in the stalls,1' Lord March asked who she was. "Ton most be a stranger In London." the gentleman replied, "not to know the reigning toast of the town, the beautiful Lady March!" the box and introducing himself to bis bride. Thereupon followed a belated courtship and so happy a married life ' that the devotion of the pair to each other was proverbial. ' CURE FOR A COLD. Heroio Remedy to Which the Red Man Pinned Hie Faith. The Indian was not especially hardy -In battle, except when be fought the pneumccoccus, says the St. Louis PostDisDateh. The verv furv of hla attack so far discomfited that terrible germ as to leave the red man in possession of the field very soon after the battle opened. Major Cicero Newell, who wa for many years an Indian agent amoug the Brule Sioux, tells in his reminiscences how the Indians conducted themselves in action. He says: "If an Indian caught a bad cold bis friends went with him to the bank of a stream, where they put up a little tepee large enough for one person to crawl into. Then they built a big fire and put stones on the fire. When these were hot the friends put them in the tepee with the sick man and poured water on them. In this way they soon filled the tepee with steam. They continued to do this until the sick man waa warm and perspired freely. Then tfcey took him to the creek and threw him into the cold water. After that they chased him with a whip up and , down the bank of the stream until he ! perspired freely again. Then they t wrapped him in a buffalo robe and al-1 lowed him to sleep.. This always broke up the worst cold." Th trouble with us Is our disposi- . tioW to permit the pneumococcus to ut us on the defensive. The Indian lushed him at the tap of the bell. The Beat Sha Could Do. They had quarreled and were returning the presents. . The love tokens made a pitiful display on the polished center table. The man added a blue knit tie to the little heap in front of him. and then they were silent for awhile. . "Mr. Brown. "Yes. Miss Simmons." "1 feel tbat I am taking an advan tage of you." "la what way?" i"You have given me almost countless ! boxes of candy and no end of good dinners. I can't return those to you. 1 have eaten tbem. They are now a part of myself. And so. as I want to be honest with yw,' George.' the only way I can settle this part of the transaction la toto give you myself." And the Quarrel ended - then and there. Cleveland Plain Dealer.

FOR EVENING WEAR.

Amber Trimmings Again In Vogue For Millinery. OS1 BBONZB GOLD PLUSH AND MaIiICTES. This delightful evening or afternoon calling toque of bronze gold plush is draped with black tulle over yellow stain. At one side is an ornament of amber beads, and the chou of malines at the back is fastened with an amber clasp. WINDOW DRESSING. Effective Casement Curtains to Be Had at Small Cost. One of the neatest and prettiest ways of dressing the window of a room in which it is not desirable to have flowing draperies, is to use the casement scheme of decorations. For this purpose there comes a specially sheer and fine cotton material, called casement cloth through which, the light shines, although the interior of the room Is shielded from outside eyes, but a similar charming effect may be produced by cotton voile, by Chinese or wash silk, none of which materials are costly. The arrangement of the drapery is simple. It is shirred scantily at both its ends upon fine sliding rods of brass, which fit into groves at top and bottom of the casement, if it be a full length French window, and against the sliding casements if the window Is of the American type. Another ad vantage of this scheme of window dressing is the ease with which the draperies may be laundered, for. being straight, guiltless of ruffles and always unstarched, the merest tyro may wash, iron and readjust them. Hint For Home Sewers. The home dressmaker who would like to take advantage of the present fashion for contrasts in dress materials will do well to study the smart gown pictured in today's cut The skirt is machine plaited at the bottom and is of a different fabric from tbat FBOCK WITK PLAITXD 8KIBT. used for bodice and upper skirt In this instance the plaited portion Is of ciiarmease and the drapery and waist of cloth Particularly good looking is the modified Robespierre collar, which may be changed at will of the woman who wears the costume. Her Idea of Business. "Fanny." said the head librarian to a small girl who acted as page on her staff, "if you are really going to resign you must write me a businesslike resignation that I can send in to the trustees. So Fanny, the page, sat' down and wrote this businesslike resignation, which has since been filed with the library trustees: PUBLIC LIBRARY. Heed Librarian: Dear Miss This notification la to notify all trustees and those it may concern, encludlng you, that I'm going to resign because of getting a better Job. Tours with love. FANNY. Campaign Song Writer. Miss Elizabeth Gordon Gross is the official campaign song writer of the organization in aid of the Wilson campaign of which Mrs. Borden Harriman is the president Michelangelo. Michelangelo while painting "The Last Judgment" fell from his scaffold and received a painful injury In the leg. He shut himself up and would not see any one. Bacio Rontini. a celebrated physician, came by accident to see him. He found all the doors closed. No one responding, he went Into the cellar and came upstairs. He found Michelangelo in his room, resolved to die. His friend the physician would not leave him. He brought him out of the peculiar frame of mind into which he had fallen.

READS HIS BIBLE WITH HIS TOPE Does Unfortunate Man that American Bible Society Is Interested In.

Rev. S. H. Kirkbridge, of Chicago, agents secretary of the American Bible society, gave addresses Sunday in various churches in Richmond relative to the work being done by the society. His lecture was illustrated by btereoptican views, showing missions in home and foreign fields and 'picturing how missionary work was being done. Some of the statistics of the work of the society were very interesting, and showed the vast undertakings which the Bible workers have successfully undertaken. "The Bible Is now published in 526 languages and there are still 500 languages yet to be translated before the Bible is published in those tongues. Of the languages of the world the Bible is now published in the most important and now seven-tenths of the world has been Christianized through the translations of the Bible," he said. "The society, in many of the cases where heathens had no written language, was compelled to write a language for them and then translate the Bible into that language and then make the people acquainted with the language. In China the work of the American Bible Society has been unexcelled, . the society having printed 8,000 portions of the scriptures for the price of one cent each. "To the blind people of the United States the Bible in raised letters is furnished without cost, the expense of mailing being defrayed by the United States government. Rev. Kirkbride cited an instance which came under his observation at the home for disabled railroad employees, which was extremely pitiful. A man was confined to this institution located at Chicago, who had lost his hearing, bis sight and both of his arms. The society had the gospel of St. John printed with raised symbols and letters so that the man now reads with his tongue. The society cooperated with 133 missions and philanthrop ic institutions last year, donating a total of 52,000 scriptures for their work. Twentyeight missions have grown out of the work of the culpteurs of the society during the past year. The Presbyterian mission, which was dedicated at Hammond, Ind., yesterday, was the result of the efforts of B. M. Baligrodzki, one of the culpteurs of the society. This mission is one of the most famous in this country. Mr. Kirkbride said the new interest in Bible study in classes, created by brotherhoods and Y. M. C. A.'s was responsible for the rejuvenation of BibIleal interests. These organizations. formed within recent years, he said, have prevented the decap of church work, which threatened to die out a few years ago. Postcard Invitations. Although it is not the best taste in the world to use picture postals for invitations, they may pass between friends at the time of some impromptu social happening or other, the sender of the Invite apologizing, however, for her use of one. Thus she would write in this case: "Excuse postal, but we are getting up a dance and long for you. Tomorrow night. Write you will make us happy by coming. "Indeed, yes." with her signature below, would be quite enough for the card of the invited girl if she herself is pressed for time, but it would be pretty to add a word more "How good of you to remember me!" A verbal response to invitations requires, as, I have snid. some good feeling behind it. and if it comes from quite an old lady or gentleman here is truly the time for a gush of enthusiastic pleasure. Old people love to feel that they are still of importance, as indeed they are when they are interested in the welfare of young folks, and they can never be too tenderly treated.
