New York Fashion Letter.

Madame la MOue showers 50
many artistic novel designs and
shades of colors on the new cotton
fabrics that it will not be the fault
of her toilette if the summer girl is
not picture this season.
The new cottons are not only ex-
quisite in ornament and elegant In
effect, but they are, what is most
desirable of all, inexpensive, and
when made up according to the
latest caprice Of la Mode, they are
dreams of beauty and daintiness.
Lovely creped challies come in a
variety of dresden effects. Some
times the whole gown is scatter ed
with exquisite blossoms or orna-
mented with a charming dresden
border.
One cannot imagine the fascina-
ting and fairylike effect of the new
lowered lawns trimmed with gauze.
Pc mpadour ribbons combined with
embroidery or lace. One beautiful
imported gown of green organdie is
so exactly the shade of June grass
that with the perfectly colored wild
flowers scattered over it, the effect
brought to the mind is a vision OF
fresh country fields with bright
blossoms. The very full paysanne
skirt is made over foundation slip
of pale violet silk. A black gauze
ribbon painted with butter-cups
and tied in knots at intervals bord-
ers the bottom of the dress. The
corsage is trimmed in fchu effect
delicate null embroidery and the
same butter cup ribbon.
AS for points of information con
corning street gowns, the droop
ing waists, large sleeves and full
skirts increase in popularity.
Modistes from Paris bring skirts
very wide, but less stiffened thar
formerly. The average width il
five or six yards at the foot anC
close fitting about the hips. Thos

The School Election.

Messrs. w. +. Graham, R.White
and ID. M. Hartman have posted
notices for the election of two school
trustees, claiming that the notice
issued by the clerk of the district
is not legal because it calls for the
election of only one trustee. 1t
will be remembered that James
Edwards was elected last year and
Immediately resigned. The Pro-
bate Judge thereupon appointed
J. NJ. Auchinvole to the position.
The board of trustees received from
the present School Superintendent
an opinion to the effect that Mr..
Auchinvole would hold for the full
term for which he was appointed
and the clerk was therefore in
structed to issue call for the cleo
ton of one trustee only, to fill the
vacancy caused by the retirement
of A. Z. Parker, whose term ex-
pires. Opinions differ among the
legal fraternity whether Mr.. Auch-
invole legally holds for the full
term for which his predecessor was
elected, or only until the next elec-
tion. Mr.. Scales, the county
school superintendent, was reques-
ted to give an official opinion on
the matter and did so, and the
board conformed to that opinion.
Mr.. Scales has written the attor-
ney-general for his opinion ON the
matter, which is expected to reach
here before the election.

A W1H4 TR-4G ED y.
Old John Siers Shot in the Back
and Killed by Mrs. Goddard
Frank Ward Also Shot
and Killed.

On Sunday last terrible trage-
dy occurred at the old Shissler
ranch, three miles below Waha
lake, in which John Siers ard M.
+. Ward were shot and killed.
1t seems that there had been
trouble between Siers and Ward
for some time. They were part
ners in the ranch and receiver
was lately appointed. Ward, some
six years ago married daughter
of the widow Goddard and she had
been residing on the place with
her daughter, who was absent
at the time of the tragedy.
On Sunday Siers drove to the
farm with three friends, and took
a Winchester rifle and revolver.
He left his rifle and friends in the
road and approached the house,
when Ward, who was ambushed,
shot at him with a revolver. Siers
faced him and attempted to pull
his own gun. AS he was endeav-
oring to locate Ward Mrs. Goddard
came up from behind and fired two
shots into Siers' back, infiicting
fatal wounds. AS the dying man
sank to the ground Ward ran up
and began to club him over the
head with revolver.
All this happened so quickly
that Siers' friends in the road had
no time to interfere, but when
40 1rh
| wounded man, one of them, named
| Shorthill, began to shoot with the
rifle. His aim was deadly; Ward
was shot twice in the stomach and
fell to the earth, and another bull
let shattered the Goddard woman Is
right wrist. Then the Goddard
boy ran from the house with a
rifle to defend his mother and
chased Shorthill to the Lake
house, three miles distant, where
he evaded his pursuer.
Siers died almost Immediately
Ward fingered until Monday night
when he died. Three bullets wer,
taken from his stomach, and it was
found that one of Mrs. Goddard
pistol balls had entered near Siers
heart and one had lodged in tn,
back bone, either being sufficient tt
cause death. The verdict of tn,
coroner's jury was equivalent to ;
verdict of wilful murder agains
Mrs. Goddard and Ward Sier
was buried in Lewiston Tuesday
He was a single man and engaged
in the cattle business, which fire
quently brought him to CANA
Prairie. This terrible tragedy i

cured on this side of the Clear

FORTY THOUSAND REWARD
Magnificent Windfall for tho Man Who

Magnificent Windfall for tho Man Who
Finds Dr. Frakcr.
Kansas City, No., Feb. 17.-Forty
thousand dollars is the reward offered
for the apprehension Of DR.. George Fra
ker. The offer is made by the insur-
ance companies which issued policies
on Dr. Fraker's life.
When the confession of judgment
was taken in the federal court last Mon
day in the case brought to collect the
$4,000 insurance, 1t was agreed in the
stipulation filed at the time that the
main sum should not be paid until the
expiration Of six months. There was
no reason given for the insurance COM
missioners for this clause and none was
required, but it was understood it
was simply one Of business and that it
was in good faith.
Now, however, 1t is learned that the
companies have Joined in issuing a cir
cular to their agents offering $4,000
for Frakers recovery, within the six
months stay before the payment of the
money. The number of agents en-
ployed by the companies amounts to a
small army and includes every city, vii
lage and hamlet in the land. In addi-
ton the offer has been made to every
reputable detective agency in the coun-
try.

The Indians to Be Protected From

Omaha, Neb., Feb. 16.-The Bee to-
night says: 1t was given out at the
Omaha federal building to-day that in
the future Nebraska Indians are to be
paid their annuities in cash instead of
the customary supply Of Blankets gro
ceIies, etc. This is said to be the result
of the thieving perpctrated on the In
dians by traders who secure their sup
phys for naught. 1t is believed this sys.
TEN will apply through the entire West.
The recent Indictment of three men
who bought cattle from the Winneba-
goes for trifle and sold the steers at q
handsome profit, has opened the eyes Of
the government to the fact that there
are but few of the big ring of trick
sters who have been cheating the In
dians for years and radical change
was resolved upon. Hence the subject
of paying Indians money and allowing
them to buy their clothing and supplies
wherever they wish, has been revived,
it is said to have met the approval of
the federal officers.

Duluth, Mimi, Feb. IA suit
which promises sensational develop
ments has been begun in the District
court, resulting from the Indictment Mt
Grand Rapids Of George Lidick. The
suit is hte first of series involving Il
theft of 100000 feet of lumber, sup
posed to have been stolen from govern
ment and reservation lands in the last
two years. Lydick himself admits he
has trespassed on this land for year
and half.
District Attorney Stryker has been
working on the case for about three
months. The number of defendants,
he says, is not less than 300, but they,
almost without exception, were work
ing In the interests of big numbering
corporations, which really are the prin.
cipals, and will receive the states at-
tention when the defendants explain
the situation and give the names Of
the parties for whom they were work
ing.
The amount to be recovered Is over
$4,000 and 1t is to be the largest sui.
of the kind ever undertaken by the

COST OF THE STRIKE.
Th,ee Millions Thought to Bo = Conserva.
tive Estimate.


Brooklyn, N. Y, Feb. 1.-THE troll
ley strike, which has lasted thirty
four days, has cost an enormous
amount of money. Three million dol
lars is considered by those involved n
moderate estimate. When the strike
started it was stated that District As
sembly rs had from 100000 to $4,000
In its treasury. About $685. was sub
scribed by sympathizers. All this has
been spent and the $35O,OOO wages OF
the men would have earned has been
lost.
The Brooklyn Heights company was
the heaviest loser among the roads. 1t
is estimated to have lost directly 5000,
600. The other systems have lost close
to 100000. The cost to the city and
state troops is expected to exceed $3.50
600. The damage done by cars man
ned by inexperienced men is placed at
100000, and the loss in earning ca
pacity by the militia during their stay
in Brooklyn Is conservatively estimat-
ed at $25O,OOO.
There were many other losses to
swell the amount In addition to the in
convenience and suffering caused by
the big strike.

| How Mon and Women ACT In 1hn In
teresting Junoturs.
There is q clever statistician who
could teach thing or two to the nov
elist. This statistician has attempted
to classify the aotisn and methods OF
proposals, and, as a result. has pre-
sented tabulated figures. extremely in
teresting to psychologists. Out OF 100
cases thirty-six gentlemen take lady
in arms, sixty-seven gentlemen kiss
lady on lips, four gentlemen kiss lady
on cheek. three gentlemen show very
good taste by kissing lady on eyes
and two gentlemen kiss lady on hand,
1t is to be presumed that these two
out OF 100 are the timid. ditiident
kind, though it is possible that they
might be OF the quiet, sentimental ma
ture. One gentleman kisses lady on
nose. 1t must be added that the sta
tistician is careful to insert the saving
clause of (by mistake.)
There Is even record OF man
kissing lady on edge OF shawl, &C
cording to the Philadelphia Times,
but, thank goodness, there is only
one in hundred and the chances are
that this man is peculiar.
Seventy-two hold lady's hand, sew
teen hold it very tightly, fourteen
have Jumps in their throats and nine
exclaim aloud: THANK God!" Only
seven out of hundred declare them
selves to be deliriously happy. .and five
are too full for utterance. Three out
of h,,n nI.aI cfurl foot whan
they make proposal and two go down
on one knee, while nine make a
formal prelude-something like the
slow music at the play, we suppose,
when the villain appeals to heaven to
witness the consuming fame OF his
affections for the heart he plots to
ruin, &c.
The behavior OF the lady under the
circumstances is equally entertaining
and instructive. Out OF 100 cases
81 sink into the arms OF gentlemen,
6S rest their heads on gentlemen
breasts and only one sinks into the
arms OF a chair; II clasp their arms
around the gentleman's neck, six
weep tears Of joy silently and A weeI
tears aloud-whatever that means; ~
have eyes full OF love and 9 out Of q
hundred rush from the room to tell
somebody. Only 4 are greatly sur
prised and 81 OF 100 knew that some.
thing was coming. Five giggle hys'
terically and one even sneezes. Only
one of a 100 struggle not to be kissed
while 6 kiss gentlemen first II we
believe the statistician, one out OF 10(
women will say: Eyes, but don't be

ator from the Fourteenth district. Gov
ernor Turney is not In the city and

Senator Newson gives as his reason
for resigning, the extravaganza of the
Legislature In forcing upon committees
appointed to visit state institutions
and coal mines, sergeants-at-arms, re-
porters and other attaches at S4 per
day and expenses, who will do nothing
but draw salaries. The resignation
created somewhat of a sensation.
