LATEST cAPEs FOR WOMEN.

Costumes VIII BE Elaborately Dec.
GRATED with Passementerie Lace.
Autumn hats will be fashioned Of
Mauchou braid, which is really cylin-
der of felt. 1t can be sewed into any
shape, and ndconsequently made becoming
to all faces. Stiff felt hats will not be
in vogue. Hats of gray will be trimmed
with white and harmonies in violet,
mixtures of green and black, gray and
rose color will also be in evidence. Beige
color will be fashionable, especially in
the soft Tyrolean shape, with wide
band of gros grain ribbon around the
crown and a bunch Of quilts. The new
models are considerably smaller than
those worn this summer. Low crowns
are in favor, and toques are slightly
smaller than they were, last year, and
most of them are turned up abruptly
on one side. Velvets and fancy woven
muterial, lace and soft silk will be used
for pulled toques. Velvet will be much
used as trimming, and plumage of all
kinds will be much in demand. The
ostrich plumes will be deemed the smart
est. Jet and lace will be employed on
many of the handsomest hats. Capes
Will be larger and a little fuller. The
collars will be cut in one piece with
the garment. Braiding is used extern
sively as decoration for these grace
full garments. A dainty cape cut on
the new lines is built of soft gray, braid
ed with a little darker shade in a simple
but effective pattern, and lined with
numbers among the latest fancies of
fashion. Still another new braiding is
to be used on short jackets. 1t consists
of an outline of silver or gold braid

For Bruises.

Since bicycling has made bruises one
of the everyday events the simplest and
best method for treating them should
form part of ones education. In cases
where the skin is not broken apply as
quickly as possible to the injured part
a cloth wrung out of hot water. Change
the cloth constantly until the pain is
eased. Then rub in gently little salt
butter or sweet oil. Afterwards apply
at frequent intervals the following To-
tion which it is well to prepare and
keep on hand for emergencies: Acetate
of ammonia, two ounces; spirits Of
wine. one ounce; spirits of camphor.
20 drops, and water, half pint. These
ingredients are to be well mixed to-
gether. If your fall takes place at a.
considerable distance from where hot
water can be procured breathe several
times into your folded handkerchief
and apply it quickly to the bruise. Re-
peat this again and again, and the
warmth will help to prevent discolora-
tion.-American Queen.

NORTH DAKOTA NEWS.
Coal Surrey.


The report of the geological survey
on coal production in 1895 has been
completed. The report shows that the
output of bituminous coal in what ia
classed as western fields aggregated
l,7o9. 966 short tons during the year.
IN this field are embraced the states of
North Dakota. Montana and Iowa.
The report says:
North Dakota's total product in 1896
was 7s, ,050 short tons; spot value, ss4,-
996. Two new mines were opened in
North Dakota in 1896 and the output at
the older mines increased SO that the
states total shows an increase of more
than IA per cent over that of 1895. This
increase was in all probability due to
the legislative enactment compelling
state institutions to obtain their sup
ply of fuel from North Dakota mines. /"

HINTS FOR TRAVELLERS.
How to Prepare for . Long Journey
by Rail.


by Rail.
It is quite an undertaking to prepare
for long journey by rail and unless
one is an experienced traveller she il
somewhat in doubt in regard to what
is required in the way of apparel,
SO a few hints from one whose
experience in this direction is fresh
in mind may not be amiss. In
the first place the travelling dress
should be very quiet in color, very
plainly made and above all it should be
comfortable. A plain dark skirt with
loosely-fitting black silk waist is in
very good taste.
For an outside wrap q cape is the
most convenient as it can be slipped of
and on readily as the changing temper.
ature of the car requires. The hat
should be small and with as little trim
ming as possible to catch the dust.
White underskirts are entirely out of
place and should not be worn, for they
soon become soiled, and the finest white
skirt when travel-stained is far more
unsightly than plain, dark skirt of the
most common material.
To sleep in at night it is advisable to
have wrapper of some soft woolen ma
terial, that will be comfortable and yet
be neat enough to wear from the berth
to the dressing-room; if a common
nightrobe only is provided it becomes
necessary to dress in the berth, which
is very inconvenient, besides crumpling
the clothing. A small satchel is re-
quired to carry all the necessary toilet
articles such as brushes, comb, soap
and towels, for a lady does not wish to
use those provided for the general use
of passengers.
Provision should also be made for the
end of the journey, in case the trunk is
delayed, in the form of plenty of fresh
collars, or lace for the neck, pocket
handkerchiefs and fresh gloves.-Wash-
ington Home Magazine.

The newspaper should not only be held

parage and censure those things whose

Its own political stand should be what

be the great and vigilant censor of the

what he could ofthe conditions there.
Red River City is Is miles southeast from

What win It Be Nextr

The electric match is the next
important invention promised. Be-
fore very long the phosphorus
tipped wooden splints now in use
will be replaced by a handy little
tool that may be carried in the
pocket or hung up conveniently for
striking a light when wanted.
Twentieth century people doubtless
will speak of the "hell-sticks'' Of
the present day as primitive and alb
surd, just as we are disposed to look
with scorn Upon the flint and steel
of our forefathers. Already there
is on the market a gaslighter which
affords more than a suggestion Of
the electric match of the future, a
twist Of the handle generating suffi-
cient electricity to accomplish the
purpose. Also there are several
styles of cigar lighters which de-
pend for their supplies Of electricity
upon storage batteries. For some
years past the gas jets in theaters
and public buildings have been
lighted by the electric spark. In
deed, most persons have seen the
curious experiment of lighting the
gas with the finger after a shuttle
across the carpet to generate the
electricity needed. The portable
electric lighter is bound to come.

BLUE MOUNTAIN Acr1vIYY,
The Prospects of the New Camp
Are Most Flattering. \.

The Blue Mountain district is a
scene Of activity. The miners and
managers are developing and work
ing assessments to some extent.
There can be no doubt, from the
present outlook, but that the dis
trict will come to the front as gold
producer this spring and summer.
A great many capitalists and min
ing men are watching with interest
the development of this wonderful
district. From a correspondent of
Monticello, it seems an almost GER
'tainty that this district will become
famous in 9 very short time.
1t has been proven beyond doubt
that there is gold in abundance in
this range of mountains, and easy
of access. The miniature mills that
have been erected in the district
have shown how successfully the
ores can be treated, and that the
quality and quantity is there.
1t is understood that parties with
capital are organizing to enter the
field from Denver and thoroughly
explore the district, and should
they be successful in this undertak-
ing, no time will be lost in placing
machinery on the ground at once
to handle THE ore.
We are also informed that num-
Der of mining men from the San
Juan are making every preparation
to enter the new gold field as soon
as the snow melts sufficient to per-
NIT good travelling.
A party of Durango have organ
lied and will start for the new field
in few days. for the purpose inves-
tigating thoroughly the report sent
broadcast throughout the country
regarding the new camp.
The Blue Mountain excitement
was brought about by the finding
Of gold by Captain Jackson. who
accidently shot and killed himself
while enroute from what is known
as Jackson's camp, to Dolores. Mr..
Jackson was a pioneer mining man
of Colorado and he had on numer-
ous occasions claimed that the
camp was second to none in rich
mineral deposits.
