When You Have Your Photograph Taken
Don't wear a silk frock. Nothing
comes out so badly as the gloss OF
satin or glimmer Of silk. Instead,
choose wool or velvet. If you are
young, wear a white gown Re1nem-
Der that gray takes white, and yellow
or tan becomes black, so that with
your white gown you must have white
gloves. Lace always comes out very
well and furs are artistic. Do not fix
your hair in an elaborate way, and
remember that you are posing as a
lady and not as an actress. Ii you
have any freckles, the artist will, If
he is a good one, spot them out, and
If your hair is really light. put a little
powder on it with a powder puff, aud
it will look its natural color.
Unless you are one of the people who
can smile naturally to order, do not
attempt to look pleasant, for the re-
suit is that too often seen in the pic
ture of somebody just sitting down in
the dentists chair. For a full length
picture throw your body, from the
waist up, a little forward. Remember
that a bonnet in fashion today will be
out OF style a year from now, and that
unless your pictures are only to be for
a time, it is better to have them taken
without a chapeau. If you want to
see a picture that could nowhere be
mistaken but for that Of a lady, look
at those of the Duchess of Fife-not
pretty, but refined looking; she has
inherited much of her mothers good
sense, and so she has a photograph
taken in a simple wooden gown stand
ing beside her husband, not in a
dramatic position, but just as a lady
might and does stand. Home Jour

Echoes of the fight on Wounded Knee Creek are still reverberating. There are those who still regard it as a massacre, and allege that the Seventh Cavalry destroyed the band of Big Foot in order to avenge Custer. The testimony taken in Col. Forsyth's case ought to set this matter at rest al once and finally. That testimony all goes to show that the troops behaved admirably and that their action was in self defense.

JOHN A. Black commissioner of inn migration has issued his pamphlet on Arizona. It is a surprise and very agreeable one to those who have been led to believe tha' it was a premature explosion of bombast. It contains l2I pages and is a comprehensive stste' ment of our resources which can but be of great value ifproperly distributed. The whole fight against the book seems to be that it was printed at the Republican office. The work is well done and the people are to be congrat- ulated on having Territorial officers who give all of their work to a home paper instead of sending to Chicago to get it done.

of operating was to buy orders, raise

money. In this way he swindled the
express companies out of great deal of
money. His friends are now aidipg him
to secure sufficient sum to reimburse
the companies for their losses, thereby
hoping to avert the full penalty of the
law. as the companies are inclined to
treat him with ieniency, owing to his

1t Did Not Appreciate the Round
ed Periods Of the Eloquent
Judge.
San Francisco Call
John Blanchard, Of Ell Dorado, who
has loOmed up of late as senatorial
candidate, is one of the most genial of
men, but sensitive to the last degree.
During the recent campaign the judge
made very active canvass for congress
and Stumped the district from end to
end. When he reached Modesto he was
received with open-handed hospitality,
and stand was erected on the principal
street from which he was to address the
voters. When he arose he was in the
best OF spirits, and in few moments he
was scourging the Democrats with his
tongue III a manner that called for
round after round of Republican ap-
plause.
In the midst of one of his most elo-
Quent flights rooster crowed shrill and
clear and the judge paused. He glanced
keenly over the crowd and proceeded.
Scarcely had he resumed his theme
when the notes rang out again. An
gered at the interruption, Judge Blan-
chard stopped abruptly, glared for a
moment at the audience and forged
ahead again.
When the interruption was repeated
a third time, he said: IF some one will
remove that Democrat from the audi
ence L shall esteem 1t great favor,
Otnerwlse l must decline to proceed"
III took several minutes to explain to
the judge that the Democrat was full
nedged rooster coOped up in poultry

PUMPING BUFFALO.
The Senate Committee on Trade
Relations With Canada.

BUFFALO, n. Y, May 5.-Four men,
bers of the United States senate COM
mittee on trade relations with Canada
arrived in the city from Niagara Falls
early last evening. They are Senator
Hoar. of Massachusetts, chairman; SEN
atorS Dnlph, oregon: Hale, Maine,
and Gray, Delaware. The public hear
ing began This morning at the Mercli-
ants exchange. The first witness was
px-MayOr John B. Manning, represent
ing the mating interests. He sought
to show that Canadian barley is the best
for mating that is grown on this conti-
nent, and that it is very important that
it should be admitted into this country
under favorable conditions. Referring
to the duty put on Canadian barley bv
the Mckinley bill, he said the result of
the 80 per cent duty Is that our Canadian
barley business is annihilated. Not
bushel is comIng over.
Would % cents ruin it?" asked Sem
ator Gray.
"Yes. sir; 20 cents would ruin it: Is
cents was the war tax. At 10 cents [
does not help our agriculturiStS. We
cannot begin to raise the barley that is
needed in this country"
Thomas LOomiS, coal dealer. was
sworn. The source of supply was Penn
svlvania, and the market for Buffalo
dealers is Western New York, Canada
and New England. he said the Grand
Trunk advertised in Buffalo for
about 100000 tons of bitumi-
nous coal, which goes as far
East AS Montreal in competition with
Nova Scotia coal, with duty of 60 cents
net on the American product, and he
therefore thought that if the duty on
both sides of the line should be taken
off the result would be greater con-
sumption in Canada of American coal.
Eric l.. Hedstrom. another coal dealer.
was then called upon. He dealt
principally in anthracite. He said
that lie handled a tonnage of
about 100000 tons year ago, an
insignificant amount of which went TO
Canada. n. w. Ransom, East Buffalo
live stock dealer, followed. He said the
source of supply was the Western
states and Canada and the distributing
points in the East.
Senator Hoar asked the witness if
there was any change in our fiscal pol
icy that would benefit live stock inter-
ests. He answered that the chief change
desired was one in regard to transporta-
ton, in which there was discrimination.

part of Mr.. Lemon. About twenty-five
conyicts at the prison are reported quite
often, and these men are punished i.Ore
severely than others. A man of good
record is seldom required to stay IN soil
tary over night. Thomas McTague,
warden of
Penitentiary at Deer Lodge,
Mont, testified that he did not believe
the punishment in vogue here brutal.
and not near so severe as in prisons
where repeated gagging and stretching
are resorted to. Deputy Warden Lemon
testified that during his adminiStra-
tion threes convicts, Davis, Lynch
and Tressler, had been gagged
for using obscene and abusive
language in the cell room, disturbing
the sleep of the other convicts. He did
not tolerate abuse at the prison. and did
not allow guards to swear at convictS
lie said that he struck Douglass with
his revolver when he recaptured him,
after his escape, simply because Doug
lass endeayored to take his (Lemon'S)
revolver. The injury was not severe
or painful. The report that the solitary
was IN filthy condition, he said. was
absolutely false. Several citizens who
had seen the recent attempt at escape
testified that Mr.. Lemon did not
resort TO any unnecessary means of
subduing the convicts. and in their
opinions he could not do otherwise.
The cOnvicts who made the recent
break for liberty testified that they were
not cruelty treated. After finishing the
taking of testimony the commission,
composed of Rev. S. q. Smith and Hon.
j. w. Willis. of st. Paul; George A.
Bracket. of Minneapolis, and Secretary
Hart, of the state board of corrections
and charities, returned to their homes.
Before submitting their report to the
governor they will hold another meet
ing at st. Paul. Everybody is well sat
lstied with the manner in which they
conducted the investigation.
