Imagine such get-up AS this at Bar Har-
nor. Long Branch or Narragansett Pier.
And vet that is what We are threatened
with next summer.
Less gaudy, and consequently less objec-
tionanie, is the Yachting cunmerbund of
dark blue gros grain silk fastened With a
huge gold anchor. Then there is the ten
MS cummerbund OF orange and purple
shine satin fastened with buckles Of
cloissone enamel. ana the boating GUNNER
bund OF green and white striped satin,
which, being five yards long, has to be
wound round ana rouui the bdiy Of the
wearer BIZ an assistant, much in the same
manner as the sash Of an Egyptian Sais or

Finally. there have been cnmmerbunds

This was an excess of $97.S57. IL otter the total
for the corresponding week last year. Every
week since May of this year. with two OF three
exceptions, the exchanges have far exceeded
those for the corresponding week last year.
The aggregate for the past week was smaller
than for any week in some time, but this was
due TO the fact that the banks were closed Fri
day, and not TO any falling off in business. In
deed, the condition of trade now is just good,
If not better than It has been any time during
the yesr, and the prospects are that no material
falling OFF will be experienced during the win
ter months.
All the leading merchants in the city are feel.
ing very much encouraged ut the business out
look. and the recent heavy real estate deals are
greatly tending TO still further strengthen conf.
dence. In the ordinary lines of business cash
sales are rapidly increasing, which goes to show
that money is circulating more freely In the
channels OF trade.
The coal shipments have been very light dur
ing the week. the total being only $50 tons.

Compliments From over the Range.

Well! it does seem asif Helena we're not
only entitled to be called the ''hub'' of
Montana, but the whole wheel and agon-
box thrown in, Now she is going to have
the Missoula military post removed, and
with the assistance of $300,O0O donated by
congress plant it down somewhere near the
Broadwater n%atatorium. We feel relieved
to think TINT the great mines of Butte are
here with the cousent of the Almighty
alone, or Helena would lobby from now till
doomsday to have them transplanted to the
aesthetic confines of Last Chance gulch.
Helena works early and late for her OWN
benefit, and it is dollars to d%oughnuts that
when the many aspirants for capital honors
wake up after election day. they will find
that the votes favor the city of gall, audi
forums and cracker factories by about two
to one. Such scoops are the result and
effect of great gall and beautiful scenery,
as compared with that of sitting still until
the plum is stolen and then yelling stop
thief!'-Butte Mining Journal.

ELLIS MUST GO.

lf Ellis will not resign why not re-
move him?
Ten days 4 an intelligent grand
Jury indicted him for maladministration
of office. They found that certain spe-
citic charges against him were proved
beyond doubt and he was brought be-
fore the bar Of the district court to give
answer. He pleaded guilty to one count,
received a canstic aud deserved greprlt
mand from Judge Hunt and was fined
$50, and his resignation was requested
by the county commissioners. Surely
these are sufficient reasons for demand
ing his Immediate resignation or re-
moval. Ten days having passed without
action it is quite time to ask for eXpla-
nations. The people Of this town would
like to know how long this man will
continue in tho administration OF es-
tates. II he is the r,ghtsman for the Of
flee they would like to have the proper
otlicersof the county say 80; it he is not
the. right man, they would like to have
him get out. His resignation from the
administration of several estates is not
enough; he must turn the Office key
over to another man.
What are grand juries for, and why
this delay? -

4 F.m,l,ar rype Of society woman.

She is a of decided though unique
ideas of color combinations and very pro-
nounced theories rs to style. her only
authority, however, being her own indi-
vidual taste, beyond which there is no APP
peal. We all know this oma She hest
tates at nothing. If ahs be middle. aged
and sallow, she no more shrinks from a
da%isy-coyered bonnet than she does from q
rose-colored gown or \ sash OF baby-blus
drawn diagonally from shoulder to waist,
after the fashion of al Odd Fellow on parade
if the bonnet, gown, or sash chance to
pleass her fancy.
Perhaps she affects mittens for evening
wear, while her more conservative sisters
are gloved in kid to the shoulders, and the
hue Of her bonnet strings-and she is much
given to strings-swears at Eer gown, whils
her farina narasol catches up the profanity
and blazes away promiscuously in all direc-
sions.
She is q sweet woman many times, and
always to q degree ingenious.
1t is not for her more Censor
vative sisters to nudge i another IS she
passes, and the ill-bred and malicious do
sometimes call her a fright. This is all
wrong. The trouble is that she has never
been properly classified or introduced.

THE NEW ORLEANS AFFAIR AGAIN.
The latest phase of the New Orleans
massacre of Italian m%urderers is the.
commencement of a series of lawsuits
for damages by the relatives of the dead
mon. Sums are set at $4,000 each, and
the action is against the city of Now Or
leans in the United States district court.
1t is, of course, impossible to predict
the outcome, but several facts exist,
prlma facie, to give reason for believing
there are good grounds for action. OF
these, the most striking is that the muir
derers Of Chief Hennessey we're tried in
a New Orleans court, by a New Orleans
jury, We're acquitted and then shot down
by a New Orleans mob. No matter
what causes existed for mob action, it
seems to us that a municipal govern
mont is required to protect it's populace
under law. Had these Italians been
found guilty and sentenced to death ii
cannot be denied that the sheriff, under
oath Of office, was bound to protect their
lives from mob violence. But they were
declared not guilty" by the jury and
therefore were certainly entitled to the
protection which was not given. In a
legal sense somebody was responsible
for the death of these men, and there
fore some one should settle for it.
Tho question as to whether tho actor
of the mob was morally justifiable, I'M
der the social conditions then existing
does not enter into the question. Law.
do not recognize mob justice. The com
mencement Of these suits would, how
ment has abandoned the movement t.
secure damages for the alleged breaking
of an International treaty by the Unite,
States.

The Switch Parade.

This is the story told by an old Swiss
chronicle:
The magistrates of the Swiss town of
Brugg assembled in council and resolved to
raise a forest of oak trees on the common.
Then the citizens sailed forth on a rainy
day, made holes in the ground with canes
and sticks. dropped an acorn in every hole
and tranlpled the dit down with their feet.
Thus they sowed upwards of twelve sacks
of acorns; and when the work was done
each citizen received a wheaton roll for a
treat, the expense being betrayed by the
