What will you see2

<ES Spring
time always brings you stylish
dress goods strangers, never more
so than now.
What about styles2
Spring Dress fabrics still fol-
low the heavy texture, knock
about order.
No lack of beauty, but that of
the severely plain sort.
Grays and Tans are to be the
most sought-for shades.
Plaid or canel's hair in che
viot mixtures of soft grey and
tan tints.
Soft woolly "Chuddah" Che
viot in mixed greys and tans.
"Vicuna" Cloth, soft as velvet
to the feel. Boucle striped shot
with "Tummerick" cord.
"Impression" Cloths, sprinkled
with clustered dice blocks in
greys, tans and shades of Nile
green.
The Plaid family is at the top
of fashions tree.
English Plaid in rough home
spun, from the big square of
color large enough to play hop
scotch on down to the little
dainty-check oddities.
princess" Plaid, a pretty
combine of plaid, silk and wool,
is very stylish.
Over fifty styles in plaids, or,
say, about 1000 yards, all of
them our own exclusive impor-
tations, and not to be duplicated
in the town.
Stripes run plaids hard in
popularity.
A plaid for tall figure and
stripe for a short one is one of
the unwritten laws of symmetry.
These stripes are neatest of
the neat; lady-like, quietly ele-
giant.
French Broadcloth, as fashion,
able as ever, but oh! so difficult
to get. Silver grey is one of the
newest color dainties.
bedford Cords" another fad
in dress material.
Bright cardinals, greys, tans,
etc. "Nobby" is the one word
for it. Excellent for walking
wear.
"Bluette," delicate corn
flower blue, is one of the newest
fashion tints.
All, those Challies.
Where do such subtle flower
fancies come from2
Violet, Carnation, Westeria,
and a host of other soft tinted
grounds.
But those carved velvet
dresses!
No pen could paint them.
Rich Turk satin ground,
sprinkled with bas-relief of nat
ural sprays of velvet rosebuds.
A dress to fit a queen.
Fancy fits back to the gor-
geous Louis Quatorze days atthe
mere sight of such loneliness.
These pen pictures are but
sips at the cup of pleasure. If

A FEMALE SAMSON.

She is Able to Isont FOnr Policemen with
Great Ease.
Freedman's Town, a suburb Of Houston,
Tex, boasts Of female Samson who has
repeatedly proved herself q match for any
three men that have pitted their united
strength against her. and who a few
nights ago successfully routed Officer John
Baxter n three OF his assistants. all men
of fine physique. The woman is a nepress,
as black as night and Of a stature slightly
above the average, but magnifcentiy built
and extraordinarily active. Her grip ia
such that she was able to break two of the
bones OF the hand of a woman with whom
she had a fracas recently. and it was on the
police attempting to arrest her that she not
only was able to prevent them from put
ting the handouts on her, but, taking
the officer and his posse, one by one,
flung them out of the house and
closed and locked the door. Baxter.
in particular, is accounted a man OF
unusual strength, and is Of large build, but
he says his muscles were as a child's when
compared with those of the black amazon.
Tho woman, whose name is Caroline
jenkins, is about 30 years old, and is the
mother of seven children. She has been
seen to pick up q barrel of iour and carry
it a distance of some yards without ap-
pearing to overexert herself, and when
tested was found to be able to break with
ease n new grass rope an inch in diameter.
Since her exploit with the police it is said
that q party of gentlemen propose travelling
with her if she will go and give exhibitions
of her strength, which is to be ascrIbed TO
no electrical or magnetic process, but to
muscular development alone.

The Knights Of Pythias Of Helena, repre-
sentsd by Myrtle lodge No. d and Ivy
lodge No. "A, had a great time At their hall
in tho A. q. U. w. building last svening.
Tho occasion was the celebration Of the
twenty eighth anniversary Of tho order. A
sumptuous banquet was spread 10 which
full justice was done. II was 4 alag
party and the knights made the best
of it. Songs we're sung, tales were told and
speeches we're spoke and wine flowed
freely during the evening. l.. A. Walker
was toastmaster. and called upon many Of
the guests to respond. A number of visit
ing brethren from Butte and Bozeman we're
present and a really enjoyable time was
spent. Among those who responded to
toasts were }. w. Thompson, e. ". Knight,
Eon Harris. Jocob Loeb. Marshal Croniu,
George Bourquin and Hon. VIM. II. Rob

A feature Of the evening was tho confer

THE CONGREGATIONAL COLLEGE.
Proposals for the Land Must he in
anil - E

Proposals for the Land Must be in by
April 2.
A proposition has been made to the Con-
gregational college projectors to give a tract
of land about two miles north of the Meth
odist university. Nothing tangible was
p esented, however. The limit Of time for
sending i'll proposals Of land is April 2. No
tenders have been made yet. The PROPOSE.
tons are to be sent in sealed envelopes and
none will be opened until the appointed
day. This course is pursued in order to
give all IN equal chance. Mr.. Bell, the
financial agent, says that if the PROPOSE
tions of some people are made public, others
will come in with II just a little better.
and that would not be fair to the others.
Mr.. Winnie will have a proposition to offer.
dependent, however, upor the result of the
project to construct the electric railway.
Mr.. Bell is anxious that the college
should be located in Helena, and within at
least two miles of the corporate limits.
The town which makes the best offer will
secure the college neverthelt 81.
Helena is already IN important educa-
tional center, and there is no reason why it
should not remain so for all time to come.
It's public schools are far in advance Of any
otner IN the state, ana the school property
in the city is very valuable. There are few
cities in the country of equal population
that can show as many schools as Helena.
There are five large public school buildings,
W. business colleges. a Catholic convent,
and Catholic school for boys. an Episcopal
school. Methodist university. and a Catho-
lie college is soon to BE- established. With
be an important educational center, and an
Episcopal college, to be established later.
would greatly add to its claims in this di-
rection.
