CHENILLE FLOWERS,
A Rich Trimming for Hats Which Can
BE Made at Home.

Chenille flowers in shades Of red
from palest pink to deepest crimson,
also in yellow and white, are a rich
garniture for hats. Six petals com
pose a flower, each being formed of a
piece of wire five inches long, covered
with chenille and bent into loop as
shown in cut A large headed pin
forms the center about which the
petals are ranged, Long wires ex-
tended for the stem are either covered
with chenille, or slipped into large

rubber tubing. A pleasing variety is
obtained by varying the depth of the
color used and the size of the flowers.
Buds are stimulated by fastening three
loops to stem. A hat trimmed with
nothing but such flowers, either in
clusters or strewn over broad droop-
ing brim, is exceedingly becoming, and
represents a pretty bit of warm color
in the murl1y lapse between winter and
spring. Hinrichs, in Rural New

Waters Ride.

Charley Becker tells, in his inimitable
style, a graphic story Of the now cele-
brated bicycle ride taken 10y w. p. Wat.
ers and Allie Mckenzie to the Becker
ranch on Sunday last. The undertaking
to ride to the ranch and back in one day,
some eighty miles over rough roads, was
no boys play, and though accomplished
by Mckenzie, it proved too much Of a
jobfor Waters. who gave out when about
four miles from the ranch. According
to "Coontail" word was brought to him
that there was a mau in a fainting con
dition down the road piece. whereupon
he hitched up, and drove down to the
place indicated. where he found Mr..
Waters completely done up" He
brought him to the ranch. and solemny
swears that he proceeded to kill calf
and applied the liver to Waters back.
and having thus temporarily relieved
him, he put him on low diet for
the rest Of the day. His condi-
tion seemed TO demand that he
be kept there for some days under
careful nursing. but knowing that he
had to represent" at the jewelry store
on Monday morning. "Coontail" hitched
up aga n at night and by careful driving
brought his patient home without fur.
ther mishap The story loses much of
Its spice through not being repeated in
the vernacular of the drag" but the
main incidents are backed up by an
affidavit that "Coontail' says he is
ready tomal:e before any road supervisor

AFRAID OF BANDITS
PACIFIC EXPRESS COMPANY CLOSES
OFFICES IN INDIAN TERRITORY.
Sale OF Money Orders Discontinued
Because No Protection Against
Robbers Is Afforded.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 1s.-Agents of the Pa
cific Express Company in the Indian Ter
ritory have been instructed by L. A Fuller,
the general superintendent not to receive
money to forward and to discontinue the
sale of money orders. This action is the
result of the frequent depredations made
by bandits without interference on the part
of the two authorities in the Indian Ter
ritory-the United States government and
the local government of the Indian nation.
The result is that, although only a short
time has elapsed since the closing of the
express offices. the wheels of commerce
have already been ciogged by the absence
of money. The officials Of the Pacific Ex-
press Company corresponded with a high
official of the Indian nation on the sub
ject of protection, and. failing to perceive
any solution OF the problem, took the step
mentioned.
Treasurer E. E. Starr, of the Cherokee
nation. in a letter written in answer to
one sent him by official of the Pacific
Express Company in regard to the non
interference of the Indian police with the
bandits, deplores the condition of affairs
and adds: In a country like this, where
two authorities are at work in their re-
TO trespass on the other, 1t is hard TO tell
who has-the United States or the Cherokee
nation-the right TO interfere. You do not
know, perhaps, that Cherokee cannot put
an intruder off his premises. either forcibly
or by law, without being hauled up before
the United States Court at Muscosee on
charges of violence or damage. If there
be any dereliction of duty for which some
one is responsible IL is not that of any
Cherokee official. We are helpless in any
case where parties are noncitiZenS or the
presumption is that they are"
S. A. Fuller, general superintendent or
the Pacific Express Company at ST Louis,
when seen in regard to the matter said:
Eyes, we have closed our money and val
liable package business in the Indian Ter
ritory l know it will work a great in
convenience, but we cannot afford to keep
up any longer under the conditions which
exist Our earnings will not nearly pay
for our losses down there, not TO mention
the danger of having our agents murdered,
which we cannot allow. We hope the In
convenience caused by the closing OF this
branch of our business will bring the ,clti-
zens Of the Territory to a proper realiZa-
tior Of the fact that If they want US 10
carry on money business for their benefit
they must afford US protection from the
raids of bandits"

WOMEN AT WORK.
How They Are Conducting Their Cam
paign I'm Colorado.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1s.-Letters received
from Colorado indicate an interesting fea-
ture of the campaign in the part the
women are taking in it. They will have
their first vote on a general State election
they are evincing interest in politics which
had not been supposed probable before the
right of suffrage conferred. All of the
three parties, the Republican, Democratic
and Populist, have tickets in the field, and
there are female candidates on each of
them. Furthermore the women, besides CO.
operating with the men on the State, coun-
ty, ward and precinct committees, have in
dependent clubs and other party organiza-
tions of their own in which they discuss
general pohtical questions canvass party
prospects and do all they can 10 instill into
the minds of the members of their sex the
necessity OF a full party vote and of Great
ing an ante-election enthusiasm which will
insure this result. They also hold public
meetings, which. though conducted, SO far
as the machinery is concerned by the
women, are addressed by speakers OF both
sexes. Meetings of this character have been
held in the principal halls and theaters in
Denver and other cities, and the audiences
counts represent that the women are TAX
ing quite as much interest in the campaign
as the men, and the indications are that
the female vote of the State will be almost
equal 10 that or the male population. This
state OF affairs is due largely to the bitter
feeling which exists between the Republic
an and PopuiiSt parkes The Republicans
predominate in the cities, while the Popu-
lists have their greatest strength In the
mining districts. As there are proportion-
ately more women in the cities than in the
mining camps. the Republicans expect to
gain an advantage from the female vote.
