bodices to one skirt The most popular
skirt is of MORE or satin, and each
dainty bodice is made in a strikingiy
different design. In this way the
society belle appears to have many
varying costumes.

white crepe de chine, trimmed with
gorgeous Nandylse points in gold. The
square, low cut neck is outlined by a
trimming of gold spangles and
white pearls. From this trim

arranged over the corsage, showing a
slight putting of crepe de chine be-
tween each point The sleeve is an

The General Can't Think That Fort

by Troops.

Gen. J. M. SohoAeld passed up the road
yesterday afternoon en- route to Denver
from Fort Wingate, where he spent
Memorial day. There the Albuquerque
Citizen interviewed him and puts him
down thus:
"Will the Fort Marcy at Santa Fe be re-
establishedY" asked the newspaper
man.
"Fort Marcy has always been nice
place for the soldiers,'' remarked the
lieutenant general, "but there are not
enough soldiers in the army to garrison
other and more important posts-hence
the removal of troops from Fort Marcy.
This is the principal reason for the aban-
donment, but still see no need Of SOL
diers at Fort Marcy. It has been sug-
gested to the department that the soldiers
at Fort Bayard might be removed to
Fort Marcy, but that would be an unwise
move, for Fort Bayard, almost on the
Mexican frontier, is a much more import
ant post than Fort Marcy. The people
of northern New Mexico would undonbted-
ly like the move, while the southern sec
tion of the territory would enter pro-
test. can not help but believe that
Fort Bayard is almost as important as
Fort Wingate, and the idea of abandon
ing the last post is altogether out Of
question"

tired from active service at the end OF

Mother aud Daughter Murdered Pre-

and Brother.

Minneapolis, June 1.--Mrs. Martha NJ.
Elias and her daughter, Annie, were found
weterlng in their own blood in rooms
over drug store on Nicolet avenue to-
day. The old lady had evidently shot the
girl as she slept and then turned the re-
volver on herself blowing the top of her
head off. They were wel-todo. Mrs.
Elias mind had been affected by the vio-
lent death of her husband eleven years
ago.
Later.-More careful examination
shows that beyond a question both
women were murdered. 1t is the belief
of officials that the deed was committed
by Lorraine d. Elias, son of the murdered
woman. Elias is mentally unbalanced
and was for tire confined in an asylum,
but was released On May l as harmless.
His grip, containing his money and
clothing marked with his name, was
found in his room. At the morgue 1t was
discovered that the victims had been
backed and bruised with some instrument
like a hatchet and these wounds were
sufficient, in the case of the wirl at least,
to have produced death. The revolver
was not clutched tightly in the old lady's
hand as it would have been had she killed
herself, but appeared to have been thrust
into her hand.
