Sonora, the new bright shade of Span
ish red, is slightly less vivid than cherry
color, but more brilliant than either the
geranium or Danish dyes.
The new waist and jacket bodices grow
more and more elaborate, and each novel
conceit in the way of decoration seems a
little prettier than the last; and the art
of making these tucked, frilled, shirred,
Vandyked, slashed. velvet-edged or rib
bon-trimmed combinations a perfect sue
cess is now a study for the modiste.
A very dainty and quaint little contri-
vance for home use is a necessaire of vel
vet ribbon to be caught at the side of the
waist by a fancy pin. From the several
ends of the ribbon hang silver scissors,
bodkin, thimble and thread box. For the
woman who delights in fancy work, moth
ing could be more useful.
The turban trimmed with tufts Of flowers
and a scarf is the latest fancy in millin-
cry and it is very pretty and becoming
when the hair is arranged perfectly.
Picture hats of white Leghorn and fine
black straw are the latest productions in
millinery. They are very large, with
black and white ostrich feathers for the
principal trimming. To these are added
pink roses, black velvet bows, lace and
rhinestone ornaments.

If your case has progressed so that a
troublesome discharge is already es-
tablished, do not delay, take the Veg

up your whole nervous system; you
can get it at any reliable drug store.
You ought also to use a local applica-
ton, or else the corrosive discharge
will set up an Inflammation and hard
ening of the parts. Mrs. Pinkham's
Sauative Wash is put up in packets at
% cents each. To relieve this painful
condition this Sanative Wash is worth
its weight in gold.

In lieu of poison or weapons. the des-

sever the right temporal artery with his

He was lying down at the time and
might have succeeded had he not fiinched
and shuddered visiblv several times in
such way as TO attract the attention of
the guards. He was lying on his floor
cot wrapped in blankets, and worked for
nearly half an hour before he was discov-

When the guards found that something
was wrong they made him sit up. Though
he tried to conceal his face it was seen at
once that the prisoner was covered with
blood.
Whats the matter?" asked Guard
Kisling in reply to which Butler said he
had accidentally scratched himself with a
ragged thumb nail.
The wound was at once cleaned by the

prevent second attempt along the same

WATER FOR THE HEIGHTS
A Suitable Site Has Been
Bonded, With a Pro.
vision.
The Real Estate and Development
Company Favors the Residents
in Their Wants.

At last the residents OF Southern
Heights are in a fair way to be provided
with an adequate water supply. For
years this section of the City has been
without proper supply of water. the
pressure being so light that in the day
time no water could be obtained, and the
residents were forced to draw water at
night time and store it in buckets. tubs or
improvised tanks in order to have sup
ply for the following day.
Within the past week the Spring Valley
Water Works has bonded site for a
reservoir. being the northerly 200 feet of
New Potrero block 1874. This site is the
top of :he highest hill in the Potrero, and
is at an elevation of more than 300 feet
above the City base, and fronts on Twen-
ty-second formerly Sierra) street, between
Wisconsin and Carolina.
The Real Estate and Development Com
pany, who are the owners Of this block of
land, have, together with the residents in
this section of the City, been endeavoring
for number of years to get the Spring
Valley Water Works to locate a reservoir
or tank on this location, and for the past
two years there has been greater effort
than formerly to have this water supply,
as about that time Sixteenth street, from
Harrison, was regarded TO a lower grade,
and the water mains leading to the
Potrero were taken out, leaving only
about half the former supply of water.
Mr.. Schussler at the meeting Of the
Board of Supervisors on Thursday night
stated that his company had bonded the
reservoir site and would complete reser-
voir or tank during the present year. They
have already begun to secure data as to
the construction of tank or reservoir and
the laying of pipes. On Tuesday last a
- tb<asr do Of
the site. and Immediately force of labor
ers were set at work in different portions
of the block, making slight excavations in
order to test the character of the founda-
ton so that plans can be prepared for
reservoir or tank.
The Real Estate and Development Com
pany has owned this and the adjoining
blocks for number of years, and while
the price Is not definitely given, it is un-
derstood that they have sold the site to
the Spring Valley Company at about 80
per cent less than they originally paid for
it, IN order to have q reservoir located
thereon.
The deed to the Spring Valley Water
Company has been bonded with the i'm
piled understanding that the location is
to be used for reservoir, and that it must
| be completed during the present year.
This news was the theme OF general re-
joicing at the meeting OF the Southern
LIN prOVeIHeuI Oluo laSt niRnt, Wnen freS-
ident Pengelly stated the above condi-
tons.
Secretary James Gluskin annouced that
since the last meeting of the club over
fifty more names had been added to the
roll.
The question of additional lights and
the laying down of a sidewalk on Nine
teenth street, from Tennessee to Mime
sofa, was recommended by the street
committee of the club.
