EVENING COSTUMES.
The Noticeable Absence of All Superfiuo

The Noticeable Absence of ALI Superduou0
Trimming. arE Yf
Evening toilets are extremely beauti-
full in shape, beautifully arranged, and
most becoming, with large long plaits
descending en- traine, and paniers, pam
els and tabliers, with rich embroidery in
silk and beads, gold, chenille, small
pearls, sometimes pearls and beads
united. One characteristic applies equal
ly to all tunics and draperies, and this
is the absence of fussy, superfiuous trim
ming; ornamentations, too, are put on
in a more fiat style than up to this time,
and the loveliest possible beaded laces,
especially in bronze. are very fashion,
able; they glitter and sparkle in the
evening like precious stones, and are in
exquisite taste, as dull materials tone
down the too brilliant effect of the beads
and bright colors. Many evening dresses
are made of glossy silk in soft, delicate
tints and fine silk Grape, and delightful
combinations of velvet and silk, or
plush and silk of dark and light colors
mixed, are to be remarked. 5"' -
Plush bodices over skirts of differ
ent material and texture, and in some
brilliant color that harmonizes with the
skirt of embroidered or beaded tulle and
lace, form charming toilets for the even
ing. These eorsages are decorated with
the same embroidery as the jupe yet in
smaller pattern, and SO that the motif
appears even more rich and sparkling.
We have noted, too, some pretty cream
plush and shot pink velvet bodices,
bordered at the neck with a fringe OF
pearls Or beads of the two colors re-
fected in the velvet, and fastened with
large buttons initiating the same.
Wolfe combined with lace and other
elegant tissues continues a great favor
tie. The wolfe skirts of evening dresses
are often covered with lace hounces
and the trlnic of wolfe embroidered with
silk and beads; lace and plush are. also
used together. a panel of dark plush
trimming one side of the skirt, and
plush revers ornamented with beads the
other. When striped stuffs, such as silk
gauze and foulard are employed, they
are used alone or trimmed with lace or
satin of darker shade. Tulle in white
or delicate light colors, is the most adj
mired for young ladies' ball dresses, as
we have so often observed, and decor
ated with pearl drops or gold embroi-
derry, sometimes edged on one side with
chenille, which is one of the few raised
trimmings, yet very light and open, has
an extremely. elegant and fairy-ike ap-

In one of the many stores in Fifth

WoRKMEN'S DANGERS.
Some of the Grave Hazards to Which La
borers Are Subjected.

Some of the Grave Hazards to Which La
borers Are Subjected.
The sanitary inspector of the New
York Board of Health has prepared a
list of injuries arising from the inhala-
ton of dust. In his report appears the
following:
File-cutters work with hammer and
cold chisel, holding the blank on the an
vii by a strap passed under the feet, and
putting sand or other dust on the anvil
to keep the iron from slipping. They
have to bend over their work, keep the
eyes keenly fixed upon it, are exposed
to metallic and mineral dust, and, in
making coarse files, to great. bodily ex-
ertion, their hammers often weighing as
much as six pounds. Phthisis is very
common among them. The work re-
cures a very delicate touch and a con-
slant variation of the force of the blow,
because it is impossible to make all the
blanks of the same degree of hardness.
For this reason the attempts which have
been made to substitute machinery for
hand labor have been SO far without
success, s5T=e
Grinders of steel are also liable to in
jury from flying particles of metal,
which are intensely heated by friction,
and scatter in the form of sparks, pro-
ducing occasionally severe burns of the
cornea. Grindstones sometimes burst
when driven at a very high velocity,
and the fragments crush every thing in
their path, as they fly off at tangent.
/ Every workman runs certain amount
of risk from this source. Those who
work at wet grinding, while they are
relieved from the danger of dust are
covered with the spatterings from the
stone, consisting of mud and water, and
so kept constantly wet and cold. They
are more liable than the others to rheu-
matism, pneum0nia and bronchitis OF
an acute form, due to such exposure.
The mortality among grinders is very
great. go N q a
Workmen who make Portland cement
are greatly troubled by the dust caused
by shoveling the mass into sacks, after
it has been burned and ground. They
have persistent cough and expectorate
little Jumps of cement. They find it inn
possible to continue this part OF their
labor day after day, and are obliged to
take intervals of rest.
Stone-cutters work with hamm er
and chisel, and not only inhale con-
siderable dust, but are liable TO in
Jury from the flying chips and occar
sional sparks from the chisel. LESSONS
of the cornea are not uncommon
among them. The inhalation OF dust
produces in them frequently the form
Of phthisis.
men who grind and powder the silic-
GUS material inhale great quantities
of very irritating dust, and suffer
from constant hacking cough and con
iunctivitis. It is rare to find sound
man among them, and they are not able
to continue long at work. According
to Hirt, they should not be allowed to
labor at stretch more thar. two. OF
three weeks, and should then work nj
something else, or, at any rate. give

The Wolf and the Crane,

Wolf having invited a Crane to dine,
served the food in a shallow plate, SO that
the guest could not get any, while the host
Tapped up an abundance with his tongue.
On the next day the Crane invited the
Wolf to dinner, and the food, consisting Of
soup, was set out in long necled jar,
which put it entirely out of the reach of the
invited guest. But while the Crane had his
head in the jar the Wolf knocked a hole
in the bottom with hammer and swal-
lowed the greater part of the soup as it
ran out.

THE DlSTRICTaNG OF THE COUNTY

Brother Abbott, of the Mountain
Home Range and Valley, goes after
the Commissioners red hot for the way
in which they divided the county into
commissioner districts. He calls this
action "the checklist thing of all,
and winds up his column diatribe on
the subject as follows:
Citizens of Western and Eastern
Alturas, what do you IN nix of it?
Can we, as an independent and free
peep'e submit to the wrong doings of
foul play; sit, with our hands tied be-
hind us and see the last faint hope
ingulfed as though by the seething
crater of some gaping volcano? No!
we are not bound by the indestructl-
BILE band of politics, nor clinched by
the clutches of undeservlng politi
clans; but, through self-lnterest alone,
II nothing else, we should be bound
to support and protect the interests
and general welfare OF our own re-
spective districts, even though it Gre
ate feeling of deep. seated hatred
and bitter anlmosity. Consider, you,
that we are now and have been, for a
time past, resting under a restraint
equal to that of Ireland who is bound,
body and soul, to the conservative
England. And now, with these facts
imprinted on your mind, do not hest
tate to apostatize from our present
county government and, although a
sacrifice would be required, move in
the direction of new county organic
aticn.
The trouble with Brother Abbott
is that he wants county pap; he needs
1T in his business. Having started
newspaper in town which boasts of
scarcely 200 population, he does not,
for the life of him, see how he can
make it live without county pap. In
order to secure it new county must
be created. That is the secret of his
opposition to the present Board in a
nutshell.
The TIMES disapproves of much
that the present Board has done; but
in the division of the county it be-
lieves that they have acted conscien-
tiousl y for the best interests of all
concerned. 1t leaves Haley in the
weakest district, both numerically and
financially, we believe. But we do
not much mind that, as we recognize
the fact that the lines had to be
drawn somewhere; and it did not
matter where they were drawn, there
was bound to be some complaint.
Wood River times. [volume] (Hailey, Idaho) 1882-1915, 1886-07-27

in the name of common de.
cency, the TINES urges the conven.
tions that will meet this fall not tc
nominate men OF doubtful integrity
or bilking propensities. There are
plenty Of men in the county who are
honest, capable, and willing to accept
office, and some Of this class should
be selected. Men who are careless
or dishonest in private matters are
unfit TO be trusted with public affairs.
