TO COLONIZE THE WEST.
Arid Lands to BE Developed by Irrigatis
and Eastern CoIonists.


1t has been years since the cry of
Westward, ho," has been heard in the
eastern states, and meantime the cities
and thriving manufacturing centers east
of the Mississippi have been rapidly fill
ing to the point of overcrowding until
labor is drug on the market Mining,
which attracted so many hundreds of
people from the east many years ago,
has lost its glamour, hunting and trap
ping have too many devotees already to
encourage more to enter this life today,
granger life on the western scale re
uuires too much capital, and the too
plentiful foreclosure of western farm
mortgages has been discouraging to
those who may have been considering
emigration. All these things have tend
ed to stagnate the population of the
east, and the result is alarming to all
concerned, capital and labor alike.
An opportunity has presented itself at
last through what is known as the Carey
law, passed by the Fifty-third congress,
by which each of eight western states
was granted 10000 acres of arid
lands located within their borders on
condition that they utilize them for
agriculture, through irrigation, and
prove to the secretary of the interior
that their irrigation plans are feasible.
Five of the eight states have accepted
the proposition, and one more is expect
ed to reply favorably before long. The
national irrigation congress, body
composed of delegates from 23 western
states, has appointed Il national lrrlga-
tion commission, which body is engaged
in forming colonies to take up these and
lands and carry them on by irrigation
under proper and scientific direction.
1t is the purpose of the commission to
form colonial clubs throughout the east
wherever there is Il congestion OF popu-
1atiOn, and these clubs Will disseminate
information concerning the present and
future possibilities of the western coun-
try. It is not intended to send out sep
arate families, which would certainly
become entangled in difficulties if not
properly directed. Whole colonies are
to be organized and dispatched to favor
able localities, with men competent to
teach them the solution of the problem
of irrigation and agriculture. These
colonists it is proposed to organize ON
the principles upon which the successful
Mormon colonies We're carried ON. An
organization to be known as the Plyn-
outh colony is now being formed to
take up lands in Idaho. Each member
of this colony is to furnish $1,000 capi

holdings and the whole managed on

PAPER UNDERCLOTHING.
A New Hygienic Fad is Coming Into
Vogue.

"A new hygiene Fau rs coming 1nuO
Vogue.
This is the age of paper. Every
thing Is made of paper nowadays,
from the wheels of railroad cars to
the costumes for fancy dress parties,
and from bOnbonnieres to under
clothing The last is recent
hygienic fad, favored by the doctors,
and a lately Incorporated company
expects to get wealthy by supplying
invalids and delicate persons with
undergarments made OF fine paper.
The product of this ingenuity is said
to be as light as paper, as warm or
warmer than wool and as flexible as
the finest silk. At present it is not
in the market, and the experiments
made so far have proved that it will
be costly at first, but the projectors
of the scheme are convinced that in
a short time it will be both common.
place and cheap.
Many an old Irish peasant has
profited by the knowledge that q
piece of old paper makes justas good
a chest protector as a silh covered
chamois skin; street car men, team
sters and tramps all know the value
of a thin piece OF paper wrapped
around the feet in cold wea ather. Ice
men and trained nurses have long
since learned that paper wrapped
around the outside of the rubber
sheet which contains a lump of ice
will exclude the air better than q
blanket, and the worth of paper as a
he'd covering has been demonstrated
in almost every hospital in The
country. Several charitable women
in Chicago regularly make paper.

given to poor families at the ap

sequined net, lace or embroidered net or
chiffon, and vandyked lace is laid over the
yelling, either plain or enriched with pearl,
jet or metallic ornamentation. Seven diff
ferent materials have been seen in one
wrap. Every cape has a ruff1e about the
neck, whatever its destination. These
ruff1es were.originally of plain ribbon, but
are now elaborated in all sorts of fabrics,
are trimmed with jet and other rich garni-
lures and are enormously full and broad.
Jackets are much worn in Paris just
now, but no wardrobe is complete without
a cape, which is so much moro adaptable
over trimmed bodices than any sleeved
garment that it is sure to remain in favor
as long as elaborate corsages are worn.
Some of the new jackets are open in front,
which necessitates pretty arrangement
underneath. This requirement is met by
the vest, collar and cuff sets now sold,
made of cambria or batiste and tucked and
embroidered to the hearts desire. Sleeve
less Jackets have also made their appear
ance as a sort of tentative effort to over
come the sleeve difficulty without the aid
of a cape, but they do not seem to take the
fashionable fancy.
Besides the cape and jacket proper, there
are innumerable little hybrid garments
which serve as finish to the out of door
toilet, but can be classed under neither
head. These are odd in shape and in ad-
justment, but often ravishing in effect, and
are of the lightest and most frivolous ma
terials, as rule, decorated with lace frills
and embroidery which make them expen
eive in spite of their slightness. An illus
tration of one of these vestments is given.

sleeves but comes nowhere near the neck.

bow with ends. Two embroidered silk

The following hints may be useful: Con-

nose is not an agreeable addition to any
face. Tight lacing and cold feet are too
often the cause. If the eyes are strained

400 HUMAN SKELETONS.
Discovery of a Remarkable Cave in

On the White River, eight miles from
Camp Apache, in Arizona, has been found
q remarkable cave. For 600 feet of the
distance, the explorers We're obliged to
crawl on their hands and knees, using
candles and buIls-eye lanterns for light.
They found between 800 and 400 human
skeletons, indicating the remains OF per-
SONS who had perhaps been smothered to
death by smoke long years ago.
Some of them Were in crevices just large
enough to admit human body. The skele-
tons are OF various sizes some being very
small. The skulls are OF brown color,
with the exception OF few that are white.
The White Mountain Apaches are very
superstitious about the cave, aud say
within it there is a large lake OF water.
The visitors found no water, but intend to
explore it further.
