Attorney General Stono rendered an im- portant decision yesterday with relation to the cancellation of policies of fira insurance atthe request of the hoiders. Ther opinion was in reply to a question propounded by J. A. Lyons, auditor of state, The original statute by which tho mutual fire insurance companics were to be governed, provided that auy note deposited with the company might be relinquished or cancelled on the payment by the giver of his share of tho losses and expenses of the company duri the term. ‘The auditor was guthorized refuse to permit any matual company to do business in Lowa uule should provide iu its poticies for a canc tion of the policy at the request of the insured, on equitublo term A law passed iu 1850, bowever, has changed tho system by providing that the iusurance company may issue written notice to the in- sured when bis promium falls duc, stating ot the samo time the amount required to pay what i3 known as the customary ‘“short rates," including the exponse of taking the risk up to the time the policy will by sus- pended under the terms of the notice, Tho “short rates” consist in a proportion of the premium which decrensos in s considerably less ratio thau tho time, 50 that the jusured has to pay more than half as much for an in- surance of one year as for two. This, accord- iug to the opinion of the attorney geueral, is to fire insurance inconsistent with the provisious of the | statute fiest referred to, und must be o sidered the law of the land.

[t was, though, and the judge brought the impetuous attorney up with a round turn. Explanations that the remarks were to haveonly a semi-official effect vrere of no avail, and the court insisted that bis outraged dignity could only bo re- paired through the visitation of condign punishment on the deralict lawyer. So Ask- with was solemnly hauled before the bar ot the supremo court and adjudged to be in con- tempt of its diguity and personal function, and was condemned among other things to pass twenty-four consccutive hours 1 close confiement in Pottawattamic county jail. Right here is where the rab_comes . 1t has “now transpired that Sheriff Jimumy O'Neill, in view of the coming campaign and with more bowels of compassion than the an- gered court—renliziug the effoct of consign- ing ou one so delicately nurtured as Attorney Askwith to the awful penalty of a day and nizht in the loathsome dungcou beneath the castlo moat, where green slime oozed from the walls, and horrid ereeping things dragged their clammy lengths across the floor; where the darkness was never broken, and the fetid air was still, suve when disturved by the clank of manacles moved by fettered limbs, or torn by tho maniacal shriek of some un- fortunate whom confinement had reft of teason—shrank from imposing such dire pun- ishment, and instead simply tnrned the vris- ouer over to the wife of Attorney Askwith with instructions that she keep one eye on him for twerty-four hours. In the meantime the dignity of the superior court gazed at itsell with cowplacent satis- fuction, knowing that in Askwith would be found & wavning to all hotiieads to coutrol their tougues, A delegation of fricnds of the incarcerated attorney visited the jail and pro- fessed to condole and cheer the suffering prison: Oune enterprising reporter even interviewed Colonel Askwith, asking him his idea of nterior decorations as applied to votary juils and describing minutely the sur- roundings and appearance of the’ attorney behind the But all this is dispelled, It now remains to be scen if the dignity of the court will be satisfied with de jure imprisonment, or whether in will rise and demand the de facto article, Union Park races, Omaha and Coun- cil Blufls, September 8-11, $6,500; Oc- tober 20-22, $1,000.

The census of 150, which is a barefuced fraud so far as Council Bluffs is coucered, gave this city 21,474, und Omaba 140,452, or 161,922 in all. Notwithstanding the emphatic protest of the people of this city, at the injustice of tie thing, Council Bluffs was unable to se- cure a re-count, and the record stunds, show- ing about one-half the actual population, returns were made.

Y., Aug. 12.—The dress reform erusade will uitimately be narrowed to two articles instead of four,” said a wo- man heroe yesterday who is one of the reform- “Theso two will be the tights and the The days of the fourteen articles of woman’s apparel, just like the thirty-nine ar- ticles in the velizious creeds, ave numbored, and we ure on the threshold of a revival of classic simplicity in matters of clothing. It will be the dress for the womau, and not the womau for the dress.’” “This little specch but mildly reflects the promincnce and potency of the new move- ment. Conspicuous roformers urrivo at Chautaugua nearly overy day, and even Dr. . M. Buckley. the littlo wide awake eaitor of the Methodist Chiristian Advocate,is prim- ing himself tora double leaded editorial fa voring the reform. Helen Potter, the well known impersonator, came up from New York to get the latest uews on thé subject, and Mrs. Frank Parker, the leader, is sunply deluged with inquiries. Provious movements toward better dress have failed, the reformers say, becuse thoy were not comwnrehensive enough. The first movement aimed only a¢ comfort sud utility the sceond was guided by those interested in {mproving the health of women, both ignor- ing ov failiug to provide for tho element of beauty. Tho present “Parker crusade” 1n- cludes all_these and comprehends even a study of the priciples of delsarte. It weans something more tnan the mere putting off of corsets. It means nothing less than that the beauty line from the armpit to the ankle must be appreciated aud insisted upon, and the effect of physical proportion is obscured if not accompanied by grace of motion. The beauty of the lines of the female form must be seen. . To show how the leaven of the new move- ment is working at Chautauqua, it is only necessary to say, and this on the authority of the dress reformers thomselves, that tne Joungivomen(ary making sweeping changes n their wardrobe and that the old style un- der garments may be had for a song. The younger clement are uuite enthusiastic over the roform, for the spirit of athletic sports is fairly srlenduh_ with the boys in rowing, riding, fencing, club” swinging, bl tennis, shooting, bathing, in fact, eve door sport. The new style dress’ frees the young women from many couveutional cus- toms and gives them greater play of the mus- cles. Hencoit is that the réformers are counting converts by the hundreds at Chau- tauqua. Tuoe southern girls here are the most euthusiastic on the subject, Whether or not it is because the hot weather i thew section has taught them to welcome any movement that discaras superfluous stay and skirts, it is certain that the yonng women from Tennesses, Georgin and the Carolinas spending tho summer here look upon the ubolition of stays with a decidedly more favor than did their forefathers on the abolition of slavery. Mrs, Parker has slipped away for a short rest. Beforo leaving she said: ‘‘The new crusade means something move than an em- broidered bathing suit, as Kate Field inti- mates.

She would put on a boy’s vest and a boyish, high stiff collar. The upper part of such a tigure would look like a sophomore in college, and the lower part like a peanut girl. Mary Seymour’s ideais too nondescript to notice. Such a skirt, reaching down to a point near the ankle, with a boy's jacket, vest and tie, would be out of the question. The is no unity in tho custom.
