Harper's Bazar in it* current Isauc says: Ribbon*
ami poaie* are tbe trimming* of tbe brut bounet*
imported for early spring. Hlyh slender bow* of
many loop* of feather-edged ribbons are set on top
of the bonnet*, aud in their midst is a posy of two
or three Hud* of Howers with loug stem* or else
with some branching foliage like that of rose* or
maiden-hair fern*. The ribbon loop* are *hort
near the front of the bonnet and two set* of them
are battened against each other, while those furth
er back are long aud extend beyond the crown.
Two or throe shades of ribbon* are in some bow*

One of the novelltios that will bo liked for its
eimpliiity is :he use of rosettes of ribbon a fourth
of an Inch wide fur trimming the top of tho bonnet
Instead of the high l>ow. Two rosett* are made to
extend back from tbe brim to the tip of the crown,
each being much louger than it i* wido, and made
of very thickly clustered Imps. One yellow and
one black to ct o side by side make an effective
trimming on a Tuscan straw capote that is Jotted
all over with large jet beads. Along tho brim are
leaves of Jet resting against a face trimming of yel
low rose petals massed together. Htriugs of yellow
feather-edged gro* grain ribbon* cross the end of
the crown, and are to be tied by the wearer.

New Yoiik, March 5.—The jury in tl^
case ot James T. Holland, tho yonnu Texan
who shot and killed Tom Davis, the saw
dust Swindler, rendered a verdict of uot
gailty to-dny.
A strong delegation of Texans was in
court to hear the conclusion of the trial
Roger A. Pryor summed up for the defense.
At the conclusion of Pryor's address a mur
mur of applause keoame au almost deaf
ening roar, ending with a clapping
of hands and stamping of feet.
Judge Van Brunt immodintcly ordered
the conrt room to be cleared, and in about
two minutes all enthusiasts except a few
women were hustled into the corridors.
Quiet being restored, Col. John B. Fellows,
Assistant District Attorney, made the clos
ing argument on behalf of the prosecution,
in an address of nearly two hours. Judge
Vanllrunt then took an hour to [charge
the jury. About 7:SJ p. m. the jury retired
aud Judge VanBrunt went to dinner. The
jury hail nut been out ten minutes before
they bad agreed that tbe defendant ought
to bo acquitted. It was 9 o’clock, however,
when Judge Vanllrunt returned, and at
9:10 the jury wero in their seats and
Holland was told to stand up. Tho
usual questions were put and the foreman
said they bad agreed anil that the verdict
was '-not guilty."
The prisoner displayed no great emotion,
but warmly grasped tbe hand of each
juror as ha stepped from the box.
Almost every mnn in the court room
grasped Holland warmly by tho hand,
and be wnlked out of the court house on
the arm of las Texan lawyer, McKeinson.
Holland will leave for Texas in a few days.

New York with John P. Hill, city marshal
of Abeline. By appointment, Butler,
Davis' agent called upon them at the Mer
chants’ Hotel enu Thursday morning and
said ho was ready to take them to see “tbe

iirondway and Read streets np two flights
of stairs to a door, where liu knocked three
times.(ITluuloor was opened from the inside.
“Tom ’ Davis was there and asked witness
to take a seat. There was a big pile of
money on the desk before Davis. lie nak
ed witness to examino it. Holland had
brought one $1, $2 and $10 bills to compare
with. Davis had a magnifying gins* and
naked witness if he liled it. Holland aaid:
Yes, I like it." Witness then naked

go< d« were sold for $u(K). Davis then told
witness that he had at one timo sent $00,-
000 worth of goods in a flour barrel to San
Frnncisao.
-On Monday,"continued Holland, “Tom
Davis called and said he bad got rid of his
customer and was now ready to do bnsi

where I had previously seen him. Ho
knocked threu times and tho man Bntler

man's upstairs; tho bills are not quit* dry.
Davis then told Butler to go, and he aud
took i a sat.
' “Davis put his hat on tho desk and sat
down. Davis said: ‘There is $10,090 here
and I will count it.’ He handed me a
package to count, and ho took a package
also. He counted faster than I did Davis

Polygamous Wives Hold a l'ow-Wow aurl

Hai.t Lake Cur, March 7.—A large meet
ing of Mormon women was held in the
theatro yesterday. Many speeches were
made and a protest adopted. The speakers
upheld the right of women to go into
polygamy and aaid thousands of disreputa
ble women in the East would be glad to
be made wives such ns the speakers were.
They maintained that the government had
no right to say women should not marry,
and it might as well take the opposite
course and compel virgins from the cloister
to marry. Such social preferences should
be respected, and the government had no
right to interfere. Tho protest de
clares that womanhood had been
outraged in tho courts by ques
tions about expected maternity, fathers of
children, etc. Suffrage was declared [
to be a vested right iu women here, aud I suiug. \Vt -larenl about lenYlei'i, atjuig^it."it was
