ALL KINDS oF SHIRT WAISTS.
The Latest Is Like the Summer Gar
 nenf Worn by Men.

The shirt waist of the present day is a striking example of what fashion can do in the way of furnishing variety in even comparatively small field for | operation. All the early rumors to the effect that this serviceable article of dress was to be relegated to the list of unfashionable things certainly had no foundation, if the hundreds of waists of every sort and condition which fill every available space in the shops and appear on every other woman you meet, are conclusive evidence of popularity.
 The very latest and simplest shirt waist of cotton, madras, zephyr, or per cale, is made almost like the summer shirt worn by men, with plait in front, pointed yoke in the back and very little fullness in the sleeves at the cuff, which is plain, and fastens with link buttons.
 The fashionable stock of black OF some light color, or the high turnover linen collars, are worn with this, and also with silk, batiste and every other kind of waist which can be classed with the shirt variety.
 The genuine tailor-made shirt waist is generally considered the best style, for something in the cut, fit and finish of it promptly stamps it as not in the class of ready-Taade shirts Yet the latter have improved wonderfully in all sesief~zzzlssssha=as.t ssassir slu4srasr. made b order is arranged more on the | shoulder, and il is fitted more closely under the arm, both of which points < I 1 figure. Cotton waists of gingham in stripes and decided piaids of rather vivid eolors are prominent in the dis play, with many others of ribbed linen and French batiste, striped with vari- ous colors and patterned over with rose buds.
 All the varieties of linen batiste are used for shirt waists, some of the pret- tiest being those with embroidered bodies and plain batiste sleeves. The plain batiste bodice is usually orna- | mented with erosswise tuclks, forming yoke, or in groups over the entire waist, with narrow lace frills on the edge of one tuck in each group.
 Flowered organdie waists with col ored silk or dainty Things are very pretty, and corset covers in pale blue, | pink and green can be purchased all ready to wear under any of these thin waists. White dimity shirt waists are to be much worn, and they have small bishop sleeve and turned-oyer cuffs. The prettiest white waists are made of wash silk or Liberty satin, with two rows of narrow lace insertion down either side of the box plait and group of tiny tucks Philadelphia

GRAIN GRADES HAVE BEEN FIXED.
state COmmissiOn Establishes the
Weights and Standards.

Tacoma, Sept. II, - The grain stand
ards have been established for the ensu
ing year, and the state commission is
now engaged in the preparation Of sam
pies. Inspector Wright and Commission
ers Reed and Stewart determined upon
the various grades, qualities and weights
of the different grains, and the results Of
their conference are here announced:
Choice bluestem and club wheat, 6s
pounds to the bushel.
No. l club and bluestem, so pounds
No. 2 club and bluestem, So pounds
No. 3 club and bluestem, "a pounds
The No. grades show an increase IN
the standard over last year, when they
graded at 50. Nos. and 3 grades remain
the same as in 1896 on both varieties
The introduction of choice STANDARD
is an innovation. Inspector Virgin
states that the commission considered "
only Just to establish this grade on "
count of the superior quality OF muel
of the wheat grown in this state, "nlen
is entitled to be placed on an equal!y
with the grain of California, where '0'
a number of years it has been cu'tomaf!
to have standard samples OF the very Oe''
qualities of wheat produced.

Grew Lost IN the Ice OF Perish In
Small n0ats.


Seattle, Sept. ll.-Just before leaving
St. Michaels the survivors Of most dis
astrous wreck. in which AZ men lost
their lives. reached the island. Only
nine men live to tell the tale Of one of
the most terrible trips 1T hardship ever
taken in Arctic waters. The whaler
Navarch Of San Francisco, cruising in
the Arctic waters, got caught in an ice
pack. The particulars Of the fearful loss
of life were not obtained by either the
passengers on the Cleveland or her crew.
They left st. Michaels two hours after
the nine survivors were brought in by
the revenue cutter Bear. and were so
busy getting ready for their own depart
ure that they did not obtain the story.
The only story obtained is contained in
the summary above and the few addi-
tional facts. that after the steamer be-
came jammed In the ice there was part
Of the crew which tried to get out by
working their way across the ice. There
were 81 Of these, and they persisted. Elev-
en- more frOze to death on the boat, leav.

Of Captain c. A. Witches and wife, the
first and fourth mate and Ave seamen
They made their way out in canvas
canoe and reached Cahoes island. There
their signal was observed by the revenue
cutter Bear, cruising north of Point Bar
row. The Navarch was steamship Of
1888 gross tonnage and lS45 net tonnage
She was 26S feet long and 40 feet beam
and drew u l.2 feet Of water. She wa.
owned in San Francisco.
