 The Rain Skirt.

In reference to tie rain skirt I would like to suggest an idea. I have just re- turned from an extensive trip abroad and have very much admired tine way ladies manage over there. Of course it is very unpleasant to drag long dress through the streets in rainy weather, but at the same time it is hard to dress always according to the weather. You may go shopping in your rain costume, but after Q few hours it clears, tho streets are dry and clean, and then, of course, it doesn't look well to walk about in short skirts
 In Europe ladies haYo their street eos- tumes arranged so that with one pull or with two buttons they can change their ordinary skirts to the desired length It looks neat, nice even. And should the rain stop they drop their skirts to the usu. al length by simply undoing one button CT one string.
 Dfessmakers put this arrangement ine to all street dresses, and even the ready made ones generally haveit Would you not suggest the idea and let the ladies see how they like it?--Latter in New York Herald.

A Two-tinirds Vote Tn Tdaho.

State No 4 has wheeled into line for woman suffrage.
 An unoxampled victQ1y for woman suffrage has been achieved in the state of Idaho. Hitherto su1Eragists have only sought to attain for woman suffrage constitutional amendments the custom any majority Of votes for the question, whereby amendments of state consbitu- fions are usually adopted. Butin Idaho, on Nov. 3, moro than two-thirds of the votes cast or tho question were recorded for woman suffrage.
 And yet t is claimed by tho oppo. nents of woman suffrage that by 2 pc ealiar wording of the suffrage clause of the Idaho stato constitution two-thirds of all the votes cast at q general election are needed, and tha5 these rot having beon given fer suffrage tA0 amendment is lost.
 Such provision was never intended by the men who voted for the new con stitution. It would be unjust, unusual, undemooratie and unrepublican. Wo do not believe that the supreme court of Idaho will so interpret the state eonsti- tuition, Any such provision, if it exist, was fraudulently framed for the express purpose of porpetuating the disfranchise- ment of women and was never under stood or intended by the voters of Idaho.

A young girl who happened to know q great deal about q certain country in Europe decided last winter that she would try at.au entertainment given for a charitable purpose 10 cell her friends what she knew and see how they enjoy cd #. The experiment. was a euecess- such 2 success fhaE after awhile she was asked foarepaat 1t oftoIer than ebe had time to So she decided 10 ask @25 for the evening, and she got it without any difficulty. Her profits daring the season were enogeh to enable her to go to Eu- rope aud have q number of photographs of the country taken to bo used in her lecture. This winter as soon as the sea- son commenced thero was another de- mand for her lectures, and 1t was enoagh to justify her in asking $100 for the en- tertainment At that rate sho got as many engagements as she could fill. She is pretty girl with an engaging man. ner, and her lecture consists in reality of nothing more than a series of anee- dotes agraeably told. Her engagements are usually to lecture before women s clubs CT societies of sonae kind, and the occupation is free from all the unpleas- ant features of some phases of profes- sionaI life. She began tho work as all experiment, and her success shows how unexpectedly q woman may find employ men6 of an agreeable and profitable kind. d.-NeW York Sun.

we purpose to write few words Of encouragement: We know that you
 are the salt of this city aud that it | is through your strong and unfai.
 tering devotion that your town has risen to . leading position in the social, commercial and intellectual life Of your State Without you
 Pine Bluff would have been a strag-
 gliug village dependent upon one or
 more SAW mills and Che limited trade
 of a few planters. With you it stands, full and awakened and
 hopeful, at tbe dawn of a brilliant
 dav. We know that in most of Your
 past efforts for the city's up-bnilding
 the eroaker, the human tortoise and
 the narrow spirited feloW-citizen
 has done bis part to dampen your
 ardor, iidicule your ambition, and
 deny or belittle the value of your service. Do not expect to be cid of  such men when your efforts burst into play They are here-these social burrs and inhere with para
 site instinct in the oft prieked side Of progress, and really thrive upon it's thrift. They will not leave you nor forsake you nor turn from fol lowing after you, because they feel in their secret thoughts that this would be 8 very bad world without you, We must presume, therefore, that they are here to stay and will be at their old tricks as soon as you point out an opportunity or launch a benideent enterprise, h looking over your city you cannot but help the conclusion that in the past twenty years much has been accom- plished by the progressive element of Pine Bluffs citizenship Is not this an augury that you can do more in the years before you than you have done in the years that have fioEn2 You have laid the fouada- ton broad and strong, but it took
 long and patient work to get it flnished-the foundation of al vast schemes being the most difficult 10 build The sqperstraeture is going well forward and will now proceed according to the law of gravity which eoapels acceieration as the movement continues. The law of gravity. in this instance, at least explains, fit does =not apply to town growth. These are our Sunday words of encouragement to our public spirited fellow citizens with whom we have east our lot and join our efforts to upbuild this city. Let us learn a lesson from the per sistanca of Cato, who could not rise to speak in the Roman Senate with out concluding with the words, Carthage must be destroyed" so we promise to wlite but few arti- cIes in future without the resolate burden, Pine Bluff must be built up.

The last Friday in the June past
marked the twenty first anniversa
ry of the tremendous massacre or
the Little Big Horn river, when the
gallant Custer and his little band
of l50 troopers were wiped out by
over 5000 bowling redskins, led
by Chiefs Gall, Sitting Bull, Rain.
in-the Face and Crazy Horse
Twenty-one years is almost one,
quarter century, and the distance
in time from the memorable day is
intensified by the gaps in the ranks
Of the men then on the plains. Pub.
lie interest in the massacre makes
the last anniversary of extra i'm
portance.
For some time alleged survivors
have claimed that everyone Of Gus
ter's brave band was horribly mu-
tilated by the Indians after the bat
tie was ended, This is not true.
DR.. w. Porter of Bismarck, N. D.,
last month emerged from a hard
earned retirement to say that he,
under convoy Of Maj. Reno's com
mand, visited the battlefield soon
after the Indians had retired, and
found each man lying just as he had
fallen when struck by a singing
Winchester bullet. He took es-
pecial pains to deny the yarn that
Rain-in the-Face, enraged at Custer
for the death Of a favorite pony,
had cut out the great cavalry lead
er's heart.
The gallant Custer! Comrade OF
Sheridan, Kearney, Mcpherson,
McGregg; chivalrous, loyal, brave,
who went through four years OF
reckless fighting against the confed-
crates unharmed, only to fall at the
hand OF savages on q far north
western feldl The man who had
fopghS for civilization with civilized
men died Fighting for civilization
against men who are not capable OF
civilization. At this date such a
fate as his seems Incredible. How
was II that the sons of men who
had fought the Indian from behind
Maine's pine trees, over the Hud-
son, oyerthe Ohio, across the Mis-.
sisslppi TO the Pacific, could thus
have walked into the rod mans
tropf Custer himself had knowl-
edge Of Indian war methods: Per.
haps the very spirit of daring tn
pcllod him 70 tho expedition from
which he did not return. Desire
for greater fame, perhaps, but why
should he not be left In The all.on.
