Describe bicycle suit and you have
described golf suit in many cases.
Golf is rich mans game, true enough.
But women who are not rich can play
and make one costume do for both pas
times. If one is made it should have
short skirt, not necessarily divided,
made preferably of big snowy plaids in
coarse weave, and leather leggings and
tam cap go we'll with the outfit. A
cooler sport than cycling is golf-that
must be admitted.
There are little ideas in dress like
these:
A gray blue flannel. tailor made, with
pin stripes of dark blue, cuffs and col
lar of white leather and lining of red
silk.
A close white serge suit with collar
and revers of black velours moire; good
for yachting or lawn party gown.
A summer evening dress for out of
town: Pale blue satin with trailing APP
pie blossoms and sleeves of painted
chiffon. The apple blossoms were
painted on, and there was the green OF

whitey-pink. And upon the shoulder

THREE LUCKY MINERS.

Sold n Claim for 100000 After Working

Dog.
HILL CITY, S. d., June 2.-The first
payment on the purchase price of the.
Juniper Fraction mine has been made
in gold at Keystone. By this transac-
tion John Snowie, Jack Phinney and
Dan Graham, three poor prospectors,
will receive for less than q months
work $4,000 The Juniper Fraction is
the richest find ever made in the his
tory of the Black Hills. Much of the
ore taken from an 1S-inch seam in the
four-foot ledge runs from $1,000 to $1O,-
600 ton. AS yet the claim is mere
prospect and the esteem in which it is
held is shown by the large price at
which the property is bonded.

don't as a rule care so much about

the seat of a bicycle built for herself,
with or without another. For that mat
ter, one scarcely sees ladies riding tan

have their admirers.

The en,ire absence Of anv fvod or ron sononls
principle or rule regulating private pension
legislation at this time suggests the danger of
its near approach in many cases to caprice and
tavoritiSm. Though have in number of in
stances deferred to the judgment of congress
aHd refrained from interposng objections to
bills of this character which seemed to me to
be OF doubtful merit, am unwilling to follow
such wide departure from palpably just
pension theory and assent to the establishment
OF such an unfortunate precedent as this bill
involves. There is no duty or obligation due
from the government to soldiers widow, ex-
cept 1t be worked out through the deceased
soldier. She Is pensioned only because he
served his country. and because through his
death she, as his wife, has lost his support In
other words, she becomes beneficiary OF the
government because she is a soldiers widow
When she marries again and thus displaces the
memory OF her soldier husband and surrenders
all that belongs to soldier widowhood. she GER
tainly ought not, on the death Of her second
husband. to be allowed to claim that she Is
again the soldiers widow.

is of dark tan, short skirt and double
breasted jacket to the hips, and the
wide square lapels are filled in with
fawn color. A yachting tie and linen
front just show at the throat.
The other suit has plain hat with
two quills, dark blue skirt with wide
white military braid, and round bot
toned jacket, braided likewise and fur
nished with an agonizing high-stock
collar. One of these costumes is very
suitable for real work, and one is very
pretty. Can you tell which is which?
For places less favored, or for wear
ers less cool blooded, these close jackets
would hardly do. Cycling is warm
work, and the majority of fair riders
will do well to cling to the thin waists,
and to the shortest kind of jacket, tied
on the handle bar at that!
The sailor hat and the soft Alpine
shapes have scarcely any rivals, though
some bicyclists do wear picture hats of
moderate dimensions defying the wind

POISONOUS GASES.

New Mexico.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, June 2.-Mexi-
can miners in the Copper Flat mine,
south of this city, were. making con-
nection between an upraise from the
1O0-foot level and the old workings on
Sunday. Francisco Cantata was sent
into the old workings to sound the dis.
tance. He remained some time and
could not be heard. Florentina Bal
derino went down to investigate.
Neither of the men responded to the
signals given by their comrades in the
upraise of the new workings Another
miner went down also to investigate
when he found Cantata and Balderino
dead at the bottom. He barely escaped
and gave the alarm. The deaths were
caused from poisonous gases.

The Picnic of the Mine Foremen and Their Families Most EnjoyabIe-The Can
 didate Was There.

The mine foremen's picnic at North Birmingham park yesterday was grand success. There were about 800 present, composed of men, women, children, doe tors, lawyers, newspaper men and last, but not least candidates for all the of fees from bailiff to governor. It was an outing of real pleasure and one that no one could take part in and not enjoy.
 State Mine Inspector James. D. Hill- house was chief master of ceremonies, and none could have filled the position more acceptably.
 There was no programme of exercises and the time was spent strolling through the park in social conversation and lis tening to the music furnished by Pratt City's superb brass band, interspersed occasionally by the bagpipe of the Scotchman.
 The dinner was prepared by Gelders & Co.,, proprietors of the Opera House ho- tel and Dairy kitchen, which is a suf- ficient guarantee that there was plenty and to spare and served in the very bess style.

They further aver that some time prior to the date of sale the amount due for taxes, advertising, etc., was rendered by them to the tax collector, and he re- fused to accept it.

 awoke to find myself one of literary circle who gathered in a cozy library and were reading, criticising and enjoy ing the latest published edition, "To the Poetry of Land," written by whom do you think? None other than our own sweet Jamie King. From these literary shades I found myself in brilliant ball room, in rich and popular city. Look ing with wrapt attention at slight and gfaceful figure swaying along in the ptazy dance, what was my astonishment, as well as delight, to recognize in the graceful form of the belle of the evening my former friend and classmate, Mamie Mac DeLong? We would not have you think that our class is entirely behind the age This Is an age of progress, and the world has at last recognized the fact that woman may fill any position with credit that may be held by the opposite sex One member of our class, fair skinned and blue-eyed, who is so ethereal and slender that 1t seems the gentlest breeze might wait her away after having gone west for more land" was disap- pointed in her quest, returning con soled herself by taking to her bicycle.
