Men S Shirts.

Speaking about Shirts, there's moth
ing in the line of these garments, for
business or evening wear. that we
don't show. Our Cclored Shirts es-
pecially are all the rage in Salt Lake
City this season. The colored ones at
so cents, with soft fronts and starched
collars and cuffs. make very neat
shirt: the ones at IS cents are made
of better material, and the workman
ship is much finer; the 81 ones are
made by Wilson Brothers, and that of
itself is a guarantee that the goods
are right, the making is right, and the
colors are right. We start in our Col
ored Shirts with detached collars and
cuffs at 20 cents. worth more, but that
is our price. The 81 and SIPS ones will
wear well, look well and wash we'll:
the ones at s1-50 with three collars and
pair of cuffs, are worth $1.75, and then
you get an extra collar.

rich districts of the central Soudan,
there is no doubt whatever that the
introduction of railways and modern
systems of irrigation will bring large
population.
At first glance it seems curious, es-
pecially in view of the exploration
over the larger part of southern At
RIGA, that these facts regarding the
Sahara should not have been known
long ago. But the Sahara has not,
like the regions penetrated by Baker,
Livingston and Stanley, been land OF
mystery. There was a COM
mon impression. even among educated
men, that all was known OF 1t
that was worth knowing. There has,
moreover, never been any hindrance to
any man of ordinary courage joining
one of the numerous caravans that
cross it at all seasons of the year and
enjoying the discomforts of rough,
dreary and profitless journey. There
never seemed enough to warrant a
thorough investigation into the geol-

It's easier to prevent colds than to

have something to keep out the wind

right thing to have-it answers for a
light overcoat and rubber coat, and
looks neat, stylish and dressy. Our
$3.50 Macintosh other dealers sell for
$3.50, and advertise them as great bar
gains. The So ones in black and blues
are made from a very nice worsted

$3.50 Macintosh has an all-wool Tricot

As the result of two French explor-
ing expeditions into the Great Sahara,
the reports of which have just been
made public, it seems likely that the
popular conception of this vast sea of
sand viii be wholly revolutionized; and
more than that. it is probable that the
project of driving a railway across the
desert and developing its resources
and colonizing ii viii De revived. Fol-
lowing the discoveries of Lieutenant
HORST and Lieutenant Bluyet of few
years ago Of a large lake in the neigh
borhood of the bend of the Niger, a
party of French government engineers
has just completed a typographical
survey of the region, with the result
of finding not one. but a string of more
than twenty lakes, all of them of con-
siderable size, in this supposed water

the question that if it's production were
undertaken on a large scale and good

SLATE WRITING MYSTERY.
Boise Investigations Solved the
Riddle by Looking In Trunk.

boise Investigations SOlycu the
Riddle by Looking In Trunk.
A reporter of the Boise Statesman has
been looking UP the methods of slate
writing mediums. He says:
While it would hardly be presumed
that any medium who is trave ing through
the country for the sole purpose of en-
tightening the people on the subject of
spiritualism would so far forget his or
her responsibility as the representative of
hundreds of thousands of the vaporous
but honest and industrious residents of
that mysterious land as to resort to
trickery to save the spirits the labor of
writing a few lines on a slate, there are
some people in Boise who have become
suspicious. They have had misgivings
concerning the appearance in the room
of a large trunk. 1t contains a great
mystery
Two gentlemen who recently visited the
medium made an attempt to investigate
the trunk, but the spirits flew into a great
rage and refused to write another line
One of the men went so far as to lift the
lid, and he was SO confused that he
actually imagined he saw in the trunk
the form of Mrs. Brockway's son writing
on a slate by the dim light of a little

very hard on Overcoats. We sell the
good kind, the kind that will stand the
hardest kind of wear. and what is
more. we combine style with these good
wearing qualities. We do not claim our

do claim a great deal for the Cape
Overcoats at 81. $3.50 and So. They
are all-wool, made very noDby, braided
and fixed UP to give the Overcoats a
style and finish. You might paw $3.50
for an overcoat. but it is a question
if you could find anything that would
wear better or look more stylish.
