The discovery of a secret solution by which leaden bullets may bu coated so as to render them superior to steel-cased bullets , Is an nounced by Charles \V.

Tlio ordinary leaden bullets , when used In the Krag-Jorgensen rltle , have been found to bo too soft , ami the lead has clung to the barrel or the rllio until the barrel was llivilly clogged , and the steel cartridges Which have succeeded the lead ones have ; eventually torn the barrel faults not found In the new articles.

"We don't like to toll Just how much the county has p.ild out for wolf scalps In the last few months , " remarked an attache of the county auditor's olllce yesterday , "but It haw been heavier than for many years. We have been told by people whom we know and whom wo have * no reason to doubt , that there are more wolves ! m the Iloyer valley and In the river bottoms north of the city than has ever been known before , and the catch of the regular wolf hunters has been much larger than ordinarily. The great niimtcr offered for the collection of the $5 bounty paid by the county has excited some Hisp'clon ' that the county has been defrauded by being obliged to pay for wolves killed elsewhere and shipped In hero , and the startling discoveries announced in the Sunday morning papero was tno natural re- HUlts of the Investigations that were started. Moie than twenty-live scalps presented since September 1 was pllimg them up a llttlo too fast. ' ' The county authorities are pretty well satisfied now that the wolf shippers have been doing a thriving business all cummer , and they arc more than anxious to catch Hill Hapti , the joung man who deposited u j batch on the auditor's counter on Friday which ho had Jiist received by express from Cheyenne , Wyo. , but Itaph has succeeded In loblng himself in the crowd , and the oiilcers o'nly have vague clews to Indicate the direc ion he took after he left Council HI lifts at 11 o'clock on Friday night. They only know tint he boarded a Hock Island freight train , going east. Inquiries ulid dii'cnverles made yesterday have convinced the oiilcers tlut Hapil and othcifi have been engaged In the business of shipping wolf pe'ts ' nto the various coiiii- tlcs in wesicrn Iowa afi summer and making big profits. In the early part of the summer Itaph was srrested a number of times by the city police and he finally left the city for the west via the box car route. It was learned that he went to Cheyenne , where he liso a brother , at work for one of the cattle companies. In the consignment of wolf pelts that lie Eccit lie o and upon which he at tempted to collect the bounty the Warner Cattie compiny , byV. . 11. Haph , appears as I lie consignor. The pelts were In a gunny Hack addressed to himself. Haph reached hero the day of their arrival. Someone took the liberty to open the sick .and di.vovcred its contents and notified the sheriff's ofllce. The sack was opened and a private mark wan' placed on each of the - 'kins. An hour later they wcra rresentcd for collectim of the bounty. Owing to the fact that a warrant was being ! prepared for Hapb nt the time he was not taken Into custcdy.and was permitted to take the reiiulred oath that lie killed the wolves In Pottwattamic county. Two warrants were issued , one charging perjury nnd the other obtaining money under false pretenses. Haph failed to get the $ j bounty for each scalp for the reJu'on that the auditor had put Into fo.-ce an order requiring the wolf hunters to file their claims and permit the county boaid to pass upon them before the money is paid. For DIslurliliiK' Ilir .11 Union. In the police court yesterday morning Itoy Tollman , Joe 1'rultt , Alonzo Sickler and | Harry Hell were arrainged on the charge of disturbing1 a religious meeting. The offense was committed on Friday night at the Over- ton misE'on on East Pierce street. The evi dence showed tl.at two of the brys were drunk and uslu ? prcfane and obscene language at the doors of the mission , and that when one of the mission people went to the door to request them to leave cr desist they assaulted him. The evidence | showc-J that I'ruitt and Tollman were the I chief offenders nnd a llnp of $50 and costs was Imposed on each. This means a term of thirty days In the city jail. The Tollman I boy Is only 17 years c f age , and Is the only child of his widowed mother. She has been trying to get him through the public schools , and until tlio last year 1ms had but llttlo ; trouble with him. He passed the examina tion for admiss'on to the High school ami sl'.iuld have begun Ills work there with the commencement cf the present term , but ho leftist ! to gi after hs ! mother had gotten him ready. He has been living Ir. idleness all summer and on 'two other occasions lias been iirrcstetl. Once he v.as fined $ L'o for disturbing the peace and at another time $9. IJoth sentences were suspended at the earnest pleading of his mother. When she wno Informed by the court yesterday morn ing that her appeal for clemency this tlmo would not be considered she left the room in tears. In the presence of the ollicers the boy told where he had gotten the whisky that caused the trouble on Friday night. The mother left the building vowing that she would prosecute the saloon keeper who had sold her son Intoxicating liquors. Under tliL mulct law the offense is a serious one. \ Voinniiiuiilcri. .

The woman was found to have wandered around on Pierce street during a greater part of the afternoon. She Is described as being quite small , weighing less than 100 pounds , well dressed and nicely appearing. She was wearing a Mack silk dress , with a , black hat heavily trimmed with ostrich j plumes. She carried a small cape on her arm.

Hcrron , a commercial travo'.cr , called at the county Jail yesterday and Identified William McFaddcn , who Is being held to await the action of the grand jury on the charge of attempting to kidnap Charlie K'scr. Mr. Herrai read dlscrlptlocs Of the fellow and accounts of his crime In The Hoc and felt satisfied that he might bo able to tell the olllcers something about him. He ac companied Officer Coviilt to the county jail yesterday morning and there recognized Me- Fadden. McFaddcn was Inclined to deny the statements made by Mr. Herron but finally admitted that all he said was true and held a long. conversation with him. According to Herron's story McFaddcn figured as the chief actor In a sensational safe blowing crime In St. Mary's , Mo. , a couple of ye.ara ago , was captured almost In the act but was acquitted after one cf the most notable criminal trials ever held In that part of the stole. In November. ISM , the safe In a large ( louring mill at St. Mary'ii on the Mlss'sslppl ' river , was blown by the use of dynamite , wrecked and the building badly shattered. Some government canal work was being done on the opposite side of the river , and a lot of dynamite was stolen from the storehouse. The mill was broken Into encl a large quantity of the explosive placed on the safe In the olllce. The dynamite was covered with a mixture of mud and ttraw and fired by i fuse. The explosion was so terrlfllc that It shattered the building and threw people out of their beds. McFaddcn and a boy were caught as they were running nway from the vicinity , On the clothes of bath of them were found particles of the Identical straw rnd mud mixture that had been used on the sife. They were taken to St. Oenevlve , the county seat , nnd kept In jnli for six months awaiting trial and finally escaped through the ability of his attorney. McFadden told Ilcrrcn yes terday that ho worked eighteen months on the government work at St. Mary's , but re fused to tell him where he had been since. Ten da > s ago a 13-year-old boy appeared at the home of a well know citizen who lives on Glen avenue , nnd applied for something to eat. He was given food but Instead ot eating It began to cry , and In answer to queries said he had been In the company ot a tramp for two weeks , and that the tramp had compelled him to beg for him. HP asked the woman who had given him the food If he could stay there nnd work for his board until the tramp had left town , and begged her to let him hide In the barn until the tramp would cease looking for him and go away. He said tlio man had t Id html he would be killed It he attempted to get away. The boy was kept until the woman's husband returned from his work and he drew from the child n most shocking tale. The child was kept over night , and on the following morning was sent to St. liernard's hospital for medical treatment. When the man read -the description of Mc Faddcn In The Ilee ho went to the luspltnl and had the boy give an accurate descrip tion of the tramp. With this description the man went to Uic county jail and was able to pick out McFadden from a crowd of prisoners. It was the intention of the ofilcers yesterday to take the boy frjm the hospital to the jail and let him fully Identify the , man , but at 4 o'clock an older brother cf the boy came to the hospital and took him away. i The boy's name Is Dan Smith , and his h'MDU Is at Collnge Springs , a little town on t the Wab.-sh near Coin. la. The tramp cntice.l him from his home anil compelled him tti beg for him. and for two weeks he was 1 subjected to hideous abuse. The people at I the hospllaldrew from the child a portion of his story and ascertained where his home ! was. His parents are 'well to do people and | have been searching all over the country for the boy. As soon as it was learned that hr v.'as hero an older son was sent after him. Tlio brother did not know of the arrest of the tramp until he was about to take the train at tne transrer. anil wotilil not consent t ) have- the child tortured any farther. Later on the boy will be returned for the purpose ot identifying the man. Dt-Mlilulc Mill ! IlyliiK.

Wash. , Oct. 25. The steamship Olympla arrived from China nmf Japan today with 1,000 tons of freight. It brought forty passengers , eight of whom went ashore at Victoria. The Victoria's freight Includes COO bales of raw silk , valued at $123. 00 ap proximately. The Olympla brings Yokohama hama advices up to October 8 as follows : A telegram was received In Yokohama re porting the destruction by fire of the nyna- goguo at Nagasaki on the day of atone ment. Iron deposits of excellent quality and large extent arc reported to have been found at Oka , Kukoka. Serious earthquake shocks arc reported to have been felt at Ycnezcwa , Senda and Nlyogaata. The same shocks were felt but slightly at Yokohama. The steamer Maura , which left llloga on the 2Sth ult. for Shlngaga , is missing , noth ing having been heard of It elnco It left Kobe. The disease which has attacked the cattle In Osaka and vicinity Is Increasing In violence. A fire at Takco-Mura , KlJIma-Oun , de stroyed thirty houses. In Kaimwaglm prefec ture crops have 'been damaged 'ten ' per cent by Insects and In Kaga district the harvest Is twenty per cent less than usual. The exports of raw silk from Yokohama from July to the 31st of August was to America 5,844 bales and to Europe 3,078 bales , a total of fS22 ) bales. Last year dur ing the same term C30 bales wore cxpoitcd to America and 1,278 bales to Europe , u total of 1.92S. There were 1,53(5 ( banks having an aggre gate capital of 203,041511 yen In Japan at the end or September , an Increase of twenty , four banks nd1,474,000 yen capital over August. There have 'been CO.C37 sufferers by dys- pentry throughout Japan since September 25. Of these 0,041 were In Toklo and 1.51S pioved fatal. The ilcc crops In Nly.ita prefecture , which Is usually 25,000,000 keku. has been reduced one-half by Moods and Insect pests and a quarter of n million koku must be supplied from other districts for consumption before Tioxt harvest. The amount Intended to be raised for the public Industrial loan during the past and present fiscal years was 07,000,000 yen. Of this ! 000,000 yon only was subscribed. The government will be forced to go abroad to get the balance of It. It Is stated the rate of Interest offered will be changed from five to four per cent , or even less. A contract has been arranged between the Piret bank ( Japanese ) and the Corcan Finance I bureau to the effect that the Japanese one ; yen piece now In circulation in Corca lus j been accepted In payment of customs duties | upon a stamp being ImprintoJ on Its face. j A Seoul dispatch says : All t.ie cabinet : ministers have tciilerod their resignations. ' Tile following appointments are abaut to be | taken : Mln Conk Ku to be minister of the , royal household ; Pak Chong Yang , to bo mln- | Ister of finance ; Clio Plang-Chlck , to be min ister of European , and Mill Cheng-Mole , to be minister of foreign affairs ; Ye Chong-Kon and Chong-Pak-Young , ministers of war and agriculture and commerce , respectively , while Nan Chen ? Cliool has been ordered to retain the portfolio of home affairs. Shin Shang-llun and Yll Yan Yun have been ap pointed councillors of the cabinet and Han Chub Sun a member of the privy council. H Is rumored that the present cabinet chat-jest , being due to the king's own will. Is subject to the opposition of the Russian minister. 'I"l'lII ! XOVHI.TIKS. XC-TV ConuflltH In Dress anil St.vllMh Ae-l'e'MMU'iCH. Whatever you decide concerning the makeup of your pretty winter gowns , as to cut and color , pray be sure and throw gay- cty and character into the finishing of the collar. That is the salient point in all dress making for the season. Let the ccstumc itself bo as Fober as you plc sc , but make tile collar a touch so bright an ] unique that every woman will give you a kindly Httle glance of admiring envy in passing. Hut above all things -and whatever you do let your collar of dress or coat be high. Remember that long-necked women are very miifh the fashion \H this moment , and that the dressmakers have been at infinite paliw to plot and plan and give even short , full- throated patrons the aspect of holding their hejds high and on a slender column. One way of gaining tills point is not only to interline - terlino the collar with a crinoline of steel- llko stiffness , but set a couple ot short whalebones insHe ribbon stocks , Just back of the ears , so that the folds of satin can never be pressed down. It is a good thing to bo able to say that the ribbon stock does still Ftanchly hold its own. The vast difference now lies in tha ribbon It Is made of. For neckwear we have a ficoro of new and most loveh weaves. Mohair and silk suede are the nv/fat. The first is woven exactly like any high-grade of brilliant mohair , with possibly a rather lav ish Intermixture of silk , finished with a simple edge and colored In the litest pbid patterns. It wears like a butin of the best quality and almost refuses to wrlnklci STYLISH itnnoN. Silk s-'iiede Is yet newer than the mohair and really it is a velvet ribbon only wi'.li the silk pile shaved closer than a mole's fur. 'It ' cmes In the new tones of castor gray and nectarine red that are replacing the long admired mastic brown and water melon pink. Ribbon four-in-hand neckties promise < o make Iholr presence folti far Into the season , and for this purpose women who wear plaid silk ihlrt waists with white linen ' collars four-tn-handa of ribbon , wlorcil In sniAll vivid checks And fastened on cither eldp the knot of the bow with short Rllt stick pin * , tipped with pink coral knobs. Suede gloves are appearing more and more universally every daas ; the * r.isnn ad vances , < hclr backs heavily stitched and mahogany - hogany red Isthe c lor chosen for dress oc casions. This Is n color not scon before , And In place of the heavy glace kids for morning and shopping use. fashionable hands nro enragr-l In stout castor gray and oak brown antelope skin gloves , four-but toned and stitched with black silk. There IH no gainsaying the fact that antelope skin outwears even the heaviest kid , nnd having an undressed surface , fits right In with the demand for n change from the finished skins. Perhaps the most Interesting departure made FO far In the manner of drcrslng pretty hands Is the selection ot new colors In the long suede evening gloves. IMack and white , pearl gray and tan of all shades are Ignored for the novelties In rich moss green , pure dull , or as It Is technically called , an tique gold and poppy red dancing gana : do suede. This may sound daring departure , but the effect of a white gown worn with moss-colored mousquetalrcs , wrinkled to the I elbow , or a black net dinner dress with gold j colored gloves Is satisfactory bejond crltl- j clsni. I SHOPPING flAGS. I No small Importance Is attached this autumn to the type of portmonnale the shoppers are carrying their samples and small change In , for ft casual glance shows that something new Is to the fore. This time the burden of feminine wealth is borne , about In while , scarlet , serpent green and ' gray purges of wash leather , made In the j long Instead of round wallet shape and | twined In gold or silver tops that resemble i serpcnts' bodies. Where the snapping elap ( Is filed two upreared snaky heads , with > flashing Jeweled eyes , are set , and the pretty thing Is called a Monte Care purse. Just a passing conceit , but worthy of note are silver , gold and gunmctnl net purses , woven in the shape of tiny Blockings. Down In the toes of three drop small change , paper bills that Is not uiv give the leg a plumpness natural , and a small gate clasp makes this metal hosiery fast at the top. Not a few or them are of colored metals , so worked to gether as to form minute golf stockings , nnd inch a purse swings at the end of the Inevitable chain. , Hut oven our chains are not what they were. Threads of gunmetal , notched at Intervals with pe-.irls or tiny gold balls , are among the things not seen a month ngo. Gunmetal and turquoise balls , or the dark m"tal with here and there n sparkling brll- Jlint set Into the fine links , are newer still , while the smart , slender , long-handled black and brown silk umbrellas have rounded knobs of gunmetal , with delicate mono- Kiams or fltle Initials outlined on them In tiniest paste Jewels. A fillip In Mio fancy for gold chains has been given by discreet jewelers , who make them of more threadlike , but Intersperse their like links than ever length with quarter-Inch long bands of gold , brilliantly enameled. Inn such chains small enameled watches are strung and worn tucked carelessly Into the dress belt , or an i-ramelcd pencil and minute purse of gold not ore made fast to the chain Instead of a chatelaine. A MYSTERY. Given a pretty fare , why on earth should n woman wish to cover It with a veil so thick. so embroidered over and heavily dotted that one olMMiiltm feature can scarcely be distin guished from another ? That Is one of tin- imsterlos very hard to solve In view of the newly supplied veiling counters , wiiere the > are selling the new and hopelessly obscuring varieties. One Is of black , brown , or blue silk muslin , pretty well covered with delicate applications of white honltcm lace ; the other a black satin bordered crepe do chine veil These are pushed hard in their certain popularity by a face coverIng - Ing that surely the pretty little duchess ot iMarlbnrough never Invented , or even stood ti.ionsor for , though it bears hi r material , very name a strange gray fish-net coarse In mesh , but very heavily oowdercil with g'ay and black velvet dots , and rctalllnp at a price fit to mike economical blood run It' is only fair to tell , when dealing with veils , that there are some novel and mos' tempting ones of the finest ot tulles In the palest of shades and shot with the tendeivs1 varying tins. They aptly call these ci > alercnt veils , and coquettishly place only four or fivi fiat black satin dots to every length , and the women buy them to wear when calling and of an evening , with their flower bonnets.
