Some dispute arose, when the defend ant, as the prosecutor testifies, drew a "black Jack" from his Docket and struck the prosecutor in the head with it. using such force aa to render the prosecutor unconscious. The defend ant denied ever having struck the prosecutor, and stated that the only trouble that occurred at the time men tioned was in connection with the dis cussion over taxes.

The prose cutrix was a tenant of the defendant, and on tho evening of tho 10th of June some difficulty arose between them over the uayment of rent. BY POHTENES3. A Reminiscence of tho Great French Admiral, Count Boclmmbeau. Vance Thompson, in the Saturday Kvcnlng I'ost, In the public square of Ventlome, I stopped ut a little shop to have a punctured tiro repaired, "Have you seen our new statue?" said tho man; "yonder In the square it's a very fine thlnR Rochambeau." Tho American who travels In France takes hla country with him. There Is hurdly a canton without Its Ameilcan souvenir or countess. This statute to tho glory of the man who forced Corn wallls to surrender at Yorktown was presented to hl.s birth-place hy Ameri cans and unveiled by tho American ambassador. Xot nil republics are un grateful. I don't remember very much of Hochambcau's career. Yorktown Is enough. But the little man of Vendome, as ho pumped up my wheel, told me an nnpe doje which proves that politeness, ll!;o honesty, Is the host policy. During tho Reign of Terror tho convention had condemned tho old hero to death. With it crowd of unfortunates he was or dered Into tho wngon that was to take him to the guillotine. Courteously the old man stepped uslele that Jihleshor bes and his companions In death might get In first. Tho wagon was full be fore his turn came, "Take him back," said the heads man! "he can go with tomorrow's batch," Hut when tomorrow came llobes plerre had fallen and the reign of the guillotine wns over. It was a lesson In politeness, utul when the little shop man and I parted we took off our hats to each other, One never knows what may happen In thU land of revolutions.

There is not a woman anywhere who loves charmiug waists, exquisite gown or beautiful silk petticoats who is not intensely interested in such, an offering as an important transaction of last week brings out in the Silk Department today. Big things in silk selling are a part of our daily store life, and we wouldn't wasto much time or talk on limited quantities or common-place values. The silks of this offering are neither limited or common. Thousands of yards remarkable asido from their cheapness. The best feature of the offering, aside from the ridiculously low price, is tho broad variety from which to choose almost every variety of fancy silks is in cluded, making it an offering to meet every need as well as every taste. There can be no disappointment among such a broad collection of high-class silk elegance. Part of the good fortune is at the cost of the manufacturers, other lots are smartly reduced from our own stocks. A HINT- Persian Striped Fancy Taffeta, Hemstitched Striped Taffeta Beautiful Warp' Printed Taffetas in the pastel grounds. Fancy Striped Taffetas, with open stripes, dividing many colors. Faucy Plaid Silks, in various weaves and new color combinations. Rich Corded Silks, Polka Dots and Brocades, all in values worth from 2.oo to $3.00 per yard. Special Price for Ail, $ 1 .00 Yard.
