stood upon its privilege of being as
variable as-wcll, fashion.
Dcrision, criticism and TRADE have at
last vanquishcd false hair almost en-
tircly, and at present it is necessary to
have fine head rather than fine hair
and coiiIurcs must be co:f7urcs of dis
tinction instead Of drcssy arrunrcrNcuts
devised by ordinary taste. There is
such growing preference for antique
fashions. that portraits of famous beau
ties OF century or two ago are consult
ed for many items OF tho toilette, one
of the most important being coiffurcs.
Abroad, historic styles arc seen now
and then, and the Louis WI, not avcrsc
to ripplcs for light hair is friend also
to pufTs, with gems and feather tips for
full dress
M. Virgilc, the great Prussian hair
dresser, is rcviving the style favored by
the Empress Josephine, copied from
her portraits between 1850 and 1910.
Tho idea was probably taken from the
ancient Creek models. Tho hair, drawn
together ut the back Is twisted into a
small round chignon rather high on
the head, and from this appears the
hair frisc and in fronta light fringe OF
small curls. The capotos arc made so
that this chignon is outside This i;
the very latest style, and for drcssy
evening wear q small wreath with
bunch Of feathers or ribbon in front is
enough, for the object is to keep the
general eject OF the head smail and
compact.
There arc some OF the leaders OF
fashion who wear tho hair plated low
down and the plat brought up to the
top of the head. Another style much
in vogue is to have the hair waved or
ogduH. There is an iron especially for
the purpose, and it takes about three
quarters of an hour to do. Hard or
limp hair takes mnch longer time to
operate on successfully than soft, nat
urally curly hair. With the latter style
of hair the undulation will last over
two weeks, while limp hair requires
the operation renewed n ore constantly.
But this style only suits certain faces,
and looks very ridiculous if not perfect
ly becoming.
There will, perhaps, be revival of
the Du Barry fashion, with it's soft
cushion roll placed we'll back from tho
front of the head, while the Directoiro

the forehead nearly covered, and the

Toilettes which arc simply drcssy,
and do not include any historic features,
require merely SNOWY coiifures, which
owe their distinction to the art with
which they are adapted to tho ndivid-

J. N. Hall and John Keane have
struck a magnificent ledge of free
gold ore near the summit between
this place and Centerville. The vein
runs east and west and is near the one
they worked last year, but a much
larger ledge, and a higher grade of ore.
The pay vein varies from a foot to
three or four feet wide and has been
prospected along the surface for four
hundred feet, and carries gold the en-
tire distance. The lowest grade of the
ore prospected goes five cents per
pound, and the highest ten cents per
pound. The location is called the
"Gem of the Mountains. Idaho
World.
The cattle men of Camas Prairie
and Wood River are greatly excited
over the numerous thefts of stock that
have occurred on the range this year.
Last week about seventy-five head of
stolen stock were discovered in seclu-
ded gulch eight miles from Bellevue,
and the parties who had them in
charge were spotted. On Saturday
last William Ledbord was arrested in
Bellevue charged with being implicated
In the stealing and his trial set for
Wednesday of this week. The affair
created great excitement owing to the
prominence of many parties connected
with the gang. It is thought one of
them will turn states evidence and
give away the whole works.-C Caldwell
Tribune.
A curiosity was recently discovered
by E. E. Horst, at Kingston, consisting
of a toothbrush placed in the forks of a
tree by Captain Mullan in the year
1862, when that famous pioneer was
travelling over the Fort Benton road
en- route to Fort Walla Walla. Under
the toothbrush was a piece of paper
containing the Captains signature,
dated as above, and notwithstanding
the lapse of time the handwriting is
we'll preserved and the name of Mullan
plainly discernible. A square piece
containing the above has been cut from
the tree, so that the brush, decayed,
but well preserved during the last
twenty-eight years, together with the
writing, have been removed, preserving
the relic intact. The interesting cur
iosity, reminiscent of days gone by,
was brought to Wardner and will be
taken to Spokane by George T. Crane,
who will place it among the articles of
interest from Idaho at the Exposition.

The Future of Ballot Reform.

The friends of ballot reform within the
Republican party are undoubtedly disap-
pointed because the Republican State conyen-
tion did not specifically endorse the Austria
liam system. But the failure of the specific
endorsement does not, as we have before re-
marked, imply that the convention were op-
posed to that system. Undoubtedly there
was an element Of opposition within 1t
which would have resisted the passage of
such resolution as that proposed by the
Young Mems Republican Club of this city
or any other resolution committing the
party to any particular measure for the ae-
complishment Of what the convention unani-
mously declared In favor of, namely, pure
elective system. But we believe this oppo-
sition, If the question had been put to vote,
would have been found to be In the mi
nority.
The most ofthe opposition was, we are in
clined to think, based on an exaggerated no.
tion Of the expense the system
will entail upon the taxpayers and
OF its complications. There is a
conservative sentiment among the voters,
especially in the country towns, which is
always inclined to resist the introduction of
new tangled" notions. People who have
been accustomed to doing things in certain
ways for many years are very reluctant to
change these ways. The introduction of i'm
provements of every sort is slow. Men get
habituated to certain methods and are slow
to change them, even after the superiority of
the new method has been fully demon
strated. or course this reluctance is much
increased If the superiority of the new meth
Cd has not been demonstrated to them. and
1t is still further augmented if the new
method appears to be more costly and less
simple.
NOW the Australian method has had to
make progress in the face of all three of
tnese OBJECTIONS. Opposition was aroused
against IL In the first place simply because it
was new; that opposition was increased
when 1t appeared that the new method might
entail some additional expense unon the
taxpayer; and still further increased when
the new method appeared to be somewhat
complicated. The friends of the Australian
system have had to overcome these three OBJ.
stacles. That they have made great deal
Of progress in that direction is cOnclusively
shown by comparison of the public senti-
ment today On the question with that which
existed two years ago when the Looney bill
was before the legislature. Then the system
was ridiculed and practically laughed out of
court. Almost all the prominent men of
both parties opposed it, Since that time it
is abundantiy evident that there have been
great may conversions. Prominent men
