Ai'TMta brief reign, the "king of the
dudes" bus been dethroned. His name is
K. IVrry Wall, and his abode New York
City. Three years ago he inherited a for
tune of ;;mMHH, and blossomed out in
the flood tide of the dude craze. He be
gun to devote himself to the specialty of
dress. Willi li im. clothes were every
thin", and he donned a new suit on the
slightest provocation. Oa certain ocea
sions he changed his duds every hour in
the day. If he started from home for a
promenade, his dress matched the weath
er. If it was warm, genial and sunny, he
appeared in gay garments. If a cloud
sailed across the sun fifteen minutes later
Berry would auible hack home and don a
somber suit, which would lie removed in
turu for a darker suit if the sky became
overcast, or a lighter one if the clouds
dispersed. It was customary for him to
ehange his entire wardroble once a mouth
and sometimes he had as many as three
hundred suits on hand. His o!d extrava
gimcies prevaded all departments of his
living, and it has taken him only three
years to fool away lib fortuue. Last Fri
day his check for 25 went to protest,
and it is said that he is financially flat
tened out. Tlic ympathic world has but

Editor Argus :
Ihinfortb is so used to have his kiud of
bogus smartness pass current with his
simpletons, that he tries to pass it off on
us. We are not that sort. He jauntily
says "come on with your money aud your
copy," etc. Now that is nol accepting
our proposition at all. We proposed to
pay him for three months' inset tion of the
resolutions of Alfred Bing Post. We
meant business: we do still; as by the
general public voice, he is absolutely
bankrupt in honor, honesty or veracity,
we are not verdant enough to pay him
money until he has earned it. When he
earns it, as we proposed, plenty of as
good men as Uock Island or ltock Island
county can produce, are willing to back
us, and guarantee our part. So go in Jo,
and enjoy that rare luxury to you the
honest earning of an honest dollar. The
novel sensation doubtless would surprise
you. It would surprise the public. It
might revive the old surprise "can any
thing good come out" of such a conglom
eration of festering putridities as the 1
slan-der sink hole?

Fall Stvlei for Hen.
The fall overcoat this year will have a
fly breast and be of soft goods, lined with
silk. The Venetian corkscrew, melton and
pincheck worsted cloths with all figure
upon the backs of stylish young men.
The fashionable coat will scarcely
touch the knee, but the real fast young
man's will probably end three or four
inches above where his trousers' legs get
bagged.
The dizzy little jacket overcoat, which
frequently revealed the tails of the dude's
ilress coat m New lork last winter, has
been turned down and labeled "unpopu
lar."
What the clothing men expect to take
in the line of winter overcoats is a long,
straight garment of moderately heavy
clotb, with a cape for the shouldars. This
coat buttons up close to the neck and
reaches within six inches of the heel. It
was brought out last season, but was not
generally known.
The Jncwm&rket coat will remain in
style for long, slim men, and the straight,
snu'le breasted, heavy coat of medium
length is always good.
A new style winter overcoat is being
gotten up, out it hasn't been given a name
yet. "We will call it something "Eng
lish, Vou know, said a clothing dealer.
In undercoats the four button cutaway
will be usd on semkdress occasions; the
Prince Albert will always be used where
swallow tails are nol quite the thing.
while for business the single and double
breasted jackets with "patch" pocket,
will be word. Many of the jackets will
be made of plaids.
The new full silk hat will lie lighter
and straighter in the cro vn than its
spring forerunner, with a narrow brim,
having a lint curve, technically called a
"1) Orsay roll. Derbys will lie high, with
rounder crowns and less brim than for
merly, ai d in color black will be more
worn than brown, which is the only other
permissible shade.
I he tailors nave much to trouble them,
as the styles of meu s clothes have not
been altered to any crent extent. Four
bntlon cutaways nnd one tuition cuta
ways will lie chiefly worn, lliu neck open
ing being cut a trille lower than former'
Trousers are steadily, but gradually on
the increase in width, and are cut
straight instead of licing shaped to the
calf. No new materials seem to have
been introduced, (.'lin ks will still hold
their place, while a broad, wide spaced
diagonal seems likely to lie fashionable.
In neckwear the folded scarf has been
largely replaced by the simple sailor's
knot.

EMERY STORllS DEAD.
DISCOVERED IN A LIFELESS CONDI
TION BY HIS WIFE.
Th Maw Kecntoed with Profound Kfr
(ret HI Illness of Only a Faw
Vny' Duration Lire of the
Great Man.
Ottawa, Ilk, Rapt, U.--This city was
thrown into great exciteinetit Saturday
morning by the remark on the street that
Emery A. Storrs, tlio great Chicago lawyer.
and counsel for Jtiseph C. Mackin tn the
suit now before the supreme court, had died
very suddenly at his room in the Clifton
hotel in this city.
Investigation prove! the report to lie
true. Mr. Storrs is dead. For two days he
bad been sulTering a slight in lispo-ition.
but no seriou-i consequence had bwn even
thought of. Ho had the l.st of medical
services, and at no time w.ig he couihied to
his room.
His wiie came from Chicago Tuesday eve
ning. During the night It WA4 necessary to
administer medicine, which was d ne by
Mrs. Storrs her-elf.
Saturday morning upon awakpnin; sh.i
found him in a dying condition and b.-yon 1
medical nlii His death took place at 7:111
o'clock and was without sutfirinj, the cause
being paralysis of the heart Mr. Storrs
has Lieen in the city about ten days in the
interest of his client, Mackin, laboring
siduously for success, and to tnis end hail
maiie an argument on Wednesday in behalf
of remanding the cau-e for a new trial. It
was also believed he was preparing to move
before the court that Ma- kin should be
released from the Cook county jail ution
bail, but this latter motion had not yet lieen
made.
Mrs. Storrs is prist rn tod with grief. The
profoundest synuiathy of the people is ex
tended to her. Many of our prominent ieo
ple have called on her to offer sympathy and
condolence.
The remains left at 1 1 :.ri5 o'clock Saturday
morning by the Chicago, Rock Island At l'n
cific railroad, and arrived in Chicago aUu
2:30 p. ni. A meeting of the LaKnllecounty
bar was held at in the morning, and the
following gentlemen atuioinUni to ac
company the remains: Hon. lv F. Bull, II
Mayo, J. H. bckels, W. lieiitlouian, Capt
T. C. Fullerton, Hon. J. W. Duncau and D.
McDougalL
Mr. Storrs has beau ill for several days.
and his physicians have be,m ojiite anxious
regarding bun.
tMr. Storri was born in Cataraugu
county. New ork, Aug. 12, lSi:. lie

where, after diligently pursuing his legal
studies in the olbce of Austin & Scroggs, tie
was admitted to practice In Iom. lu l.v.
be went to New ork city, remaining there
but two years, tie came uience to cuicao
in ltiftv. Iievoted to his profession, he has
never been an otiice-seeker or office-holder.
aud yet, as a conspicuous citizsu or tin-
republic, he has ever taken a profound,
intelligent, and elticient interest in political
affairs.
Politically a decided Bt-publican, to that
party he has cou;-tantly dedicated his great
talent In 1SI1S, 1ST-, and ItiMO be was dele-gate-at-large
from Illinois to the national
Republican conventions, being on each oc
casion one ox tne loreuinet in snapuig tue
policy, characterizing the resolutions, and
formulating the platforms of the party.
He drafted the constitution aud by-law i
of the Citizens' association, and was in
terested in the Historical society, the lrews
club, and other institutions of kindred
character. "Action!" is his motto, as l,a-
leeu instanced by ht connection with the
Citizens' league for the suppression of th
sale of liquor to minors. As sulistantial
monument- of his varied accomplishments
general literature, attention might be
called to his numerous lectures, nota
bly those on 'English Constitution,"
"Culture," "Patriotism," "Meu of Actual,"
"Municipal (Govern ment, and lectures
before the Chicago Historical societw. His
Garfield funeral orations before the Union
League club and nt, the great lake-front
meeting were of noble quality and lustered
phrase. Of ttie important cases in which be
figured as couuwl it will suftice to enumer
ate the great BnlKiicU conspiracy case
in St Louis; the contested election cases
for the incorioration of the city under the
general law. the famou-i Michigan univer
sity case, the case involving Mie duty of
railroads to deliver grHin to elevators to
wnicn it was consigned, tne unttormity or
taxation case, and those cases involving the
constitutionality of the law providing for
the erection of the new state hone, and
also of the Lincoln nnd South jiark
i-tatutes. involving a question as
to the power of municipalities
to imiiose tatxas with consent.
His fine abilities as a criminal lawyer were
amply demonstrated in the famous Sullivan,
Hansome. and Cochrane murder rases, as
well as hi- masterly defend of Storey and
Wilkie.at Belvidere, indicted for conspiracy.
In this connection it i-i well to note his de
fense of The Chicago Times in the Higgins
libel suit. Hi- familiarity with political
history political philosophy and tiolitical
economy has been revealed again and
again."
In 1WM Mr. Storrs friends suggested him
for the office of attorney general under Pres
ident Arthur, but without success. Nothing
dispirited, Mr. Storrs engaged actively in
the campaign of 1884 and Ktumoed several
of the eastern states. His practice mffered
considerably from his neglect occasioned
by his interest in litics nnd those who
know of his affairs intimatelv were not
surprised when pecuniary considerations led
bim to espouse the cause of Meek in, the
ballot box stuffer. It was while in Ottawa
In attendance limn the miireme court in
this case that he broke down and died. He
leaves a charming wife nnd a married con,
whs resides in New York.

Chicago, Sept 14. The following dig-
patches have been received here:
Sanpy Hook, N. J., Sopt la, 10 a. m.
The weather is cloudy aud the wind west,
blowing five miles tier hour. The Puritan
in tow and the (reuesta under sail are now
passing out to the starting point, the Scot
land light-ship. The sigual service ofilcer
predicts for to-day very light, generally

that the race can be sailed to-day la the
stipulated seven hours.

riorted that Mitchell's counsel, two of the
ablest lawyers in the cily, have succeeded
in tracing the supposed murdered
woman. It is that, instead of being
the victim of a murder, she has lieen tc
England, whence she returned a few dayi
ago, and that she is being kept out of sight
by the lawyers, a dramatic denouement i-
said to be arranged for the hearing, when,
after the government witnesses have told
their story, it is proiKwed to produce the
supposed victim in the flesh. The polio
