The Coming Fashions for Ladies

This is what is commonly conceded to
be the most difficult epocn OF the year in
the realms OF fashion; for, while all modes
seem to be in an undecided state, vet every
body is most anxious to learn what turn
the new fashions will take since all those
interested in this subject must be prepar-
ing for the coming season-the busiest OF
the year. In their eagerness TO secure
novel ideas, many dressmakers cross the
ocean, still greater number turn their
eyes toward New York, while the majority
are anxiously inquiring from every posi-
BILE quarter in order to obtain the much
desired information. Now il is undoubt-
eddy true that the surest, safest, most con-
venient and practical way of attaining this
end is to become subscriber OF a sub
stantial fashion magazine, whose infor-
nation is reliable and which offers the
greatest variety OF subjects. Such maya.

STATE FAIR
White River Junction, September 4,
3, q, and z.

That larger patronage Tor the
fairs OF the State Agricultural society
is given those held at White River
Junction,i is fact that was established
when the first meeting of the society
at Billings Park was held. This year.
all previous records in the way of at
tendance have been beaten, and at the
same time all previous exhibits have
been distanced. Some of the Old-tlme
officers, whose service extends back
many years, say: I'VE have had many
excellent fans, the exhibits at which
we have thought were so excellent
that they could never be eXcelled; but
we must now acknowledge that this
last exhibit is excellent above all 9th
ers. The horse exhibit is the best
we have ever seen; the same must be
said of both the cattle and sheep ex-
hibit~; the poultry exhibits of all the
late fairs have been excellent, and that
at this last fair was equal to any"
The trotting records Of all past fairs
have been broken. Young horses en-
tered in slow Glasses have gone inside
the 2:2O mark The great Nelson
trotted heats in time below that Of any
mark that was dreamed of few years
ago.
Special attractions offered at fairs
have usually Disguised rather than
pleased. Those at the State fair were
an exception. Prof Joe Wilson's
trained dog Jack and the japanese
acrobat- gave daily exhibition, that
gained big applause from the big
crowds that witnessed them.
GOV. Fuller's address upon the sub.
iect of Good Roads" was the special
feature for Friday. and, Judging from
the comments heard, gave the farmer,
fully as much pleasure as any Of the
features Of the fair COY. Fuller had
evidently gone 20 the bottom Of hi :
subject and had studied il carefully
and with good judgment had drawn
his deductions. He did not advocate
a sudden building Of costly roads. bu'
rather the gradual rebuilding Of old
roads with q, little outlay Of money
a. is compatible with the demands of
the times.

E. E. Slell, while digging trench for a
picket fence on the bank of the Cowitz the
other day, upearthed the skeleton of an
Indian, together with some scores of beads
of various sizes and colors, a~pair of scissors,
a large lumber of shells and ten or a dozen
copper COINS. There were two siz.s OF the
coins, one about that of a copper ? cent
piece and the other the SIZE of copper
cent. On one side Of the larger coins ap-
peared log cabin, and on the other a
vIgnettc, together with Major G GsneraI W
II. Harrison, l775," WAS engraved. Some
TO the coius bear different date, while on
others the inscriptions were invisible. The
COINS were evidently brought to the coast
by the Hudson Bay Company OF old settlers
10 that section. Some OF them are thought
to be valuable on account of their date.

Exnlasion I'm a Mime.

CARDIFF, Wales, June 24-A dispatch
from Port ) Pridd, Glamorgan, says that
a terrible explosion occurred yesterday
afternoon in the Albion colliery 1t is
estimated 80 miners were killed either
bv the explosion or by the falling earth
or rocks. Several parties of volunteers
In the work of rescue descended into the
pit yesterday evening. Every effort is
being made to cave the miners and to
rescue the bodies of the dead. The
entire population of Cbfand and hun
dreds OF persons from Port y Prlad and
and other places in the vicinity gathered
about the mouth of the pit anxiously
waiting for news from the mine. Early
this morning some of the rescuers came
to the surface and reported that they had
penetrated 100 yards into the mine, and
found five men alive, but badly injured
They also found 13 men who had been
killed. This Information spFeed rapidly
among the crowd at The pies mouth,
aud the excitement grew il Intensity
Those who had friends or relatives in the
mine asked with eager and strained faces
il they were among the dead. Of course
no information could be n-bssfed
them, for the m'ne officials d.,i hot know
the names of the killed, and many of the
bodies were so badly burned that identi
fcatiOn was Impossible.
rne five men were bioa.iit up the
shaft soon as possible, sb1 soon after
the bodies found neal them we're raised
to the surface ana placed in shed near
the mouth OIL the pit Here sew raj Were
identified by their clothing. Twenty
men and boys in semi concious con-
ditlon were also brought up. They had
apparently not been injured by the
explosion, hut had Inhaled the af,er
damp. Had they nos been found, there
Is no dcuOt t6ey would all have been
suffocated The impression grows that
the loss wi DE greater than at frs
estimated The men who came to the
surface report they saw a number oi
bodies SO pinned under the debris that II
is impossible as yet to extricate them
They also say that, judging from the
appearance of the faces of the bodies,
death In many cases was caused by The
after Damp This gas is bindenng the
work of the rescuerers, the fans as yet
not having succeeded in freeing the pit
| OF it. In the farther workings the gas is
present in large quantities, and this fact
is against any hope of saving the i'm
prisoned men there. More bodies wert
| discovered and brought ont after mid
night. So many were so terribly scalded
that the flesh almo dropne-' from them
and they had to be t,ldled most
carefully. II is more thar - baoie tha
a large percentage of the dad will nevel

the debris is now proceedicg more rap

A Deserved Honor.

From the Seattle Telegraph we quote the
following regarding lady well known in
this city, and formerly assistant principal
of the Wasco Independent academy:
Miss Ellen J. Chamberlain, B. S. precep-
tress and professor of German, English lit
erature and history in the University Of
Washington, has bsen honored by her alma
mater. She graduated from the William
cite University at Salem. Oregon, in the
class OF 1868, and since that time she has
been steadily engaged in teaching, much of
which time being voted to teaching the
higher branches. For about eight years she
has been member of the faculty of the
state university, and this compliment to her
worth as lady and as an instructor of high
attainments is thoroughly appreciated here,
especially as it comes from another Pacific
coast institution of learning of the standing
of Willamette Universi y. Miss Chamber
lain is now entitled to sign A. Nj. after her
name, and those who know her best assert
that here are few peopl- in this world who
will fulfill the expectations or requirements
of such an honor with greater fidelity than
oh
