broidery just met the curved edges of the pearl-studded corsage and then hung loosely, blouse fashion, to the waist, where there was a narrow band of black paillettes heavily studded with turquoise. The sleeves were of fine black net, also embroidered, and on one shoulder, the left, think, there was a wondrous spray of mauve- tinted orchids. The whole effect of this gown was novel and beautiful in the extreme.
 At the same place I also saw some charming blouses, one of pale green glace silk particularly attracting my attention. It was composed entirely of tucks, each tuck being alternated by an open-work pattern of herring boned stitching, which showed the white glace lining beneath. It opened up the front with a series of tiny tabs, each tab having a minute cut steel button in its center. These parted del icately over a very finely tucked white silk waistcoat, with a high stock col lar and large tie of pale green. Another exquisite blouse was o1 pinky mauve, with facIngs and band Iings of white satin. This bodice was i elaborately trimmed with the very i tiniest pearl buttons-it must have ] had at least three or four dozen use6
 in it's composition. These inf1nitesi

THE LONDON STYLES.
Mrs. Lane Describes Some Fetching
 Spring Creations.

There is no probable sort of doubt, l no possible doubt whatever" that we. are going to trail our skirts on the ground again this summer, writes the London correspondent of the New York Mail and Express. All the latest Paris creations" show this phase in fash ionable retrogression and the volumi- nous breadths that swirl and f1utter about our feet are being more and more extensively communicated to the ground. It is a great pity that we are marking back again to the old time horrors of scavenger skirts. For an evening gown nothing prettier than a trained skirt can be possible It adds dignity and grace to the figure, it suits all sorts and conditions of women. To bring the sweeping skirt, however, into street use is an anchronism that is Cf- fensive to all rules of good taste.
 So few women know how to hold their petticoats up. They either grasp them violently in an awful lump to- ward the back or hold up one side and let the other trail remorselessly on the ground; or else they take up both sides after the good old fashioned country custom and hold their skirts as if they were preparing to receive cargo of apples. French women seem 10 possess for the most part the pecu- liar gift of being able to make a lifted skirt assume some lines of elegance and grace. They hold the folds deli cately and lightly, yet firmly, and there are no awkward clippings or bag gings at the back. They know that by a certain twist Of the wrist they can lift the jupe high above any grimy

 4 brief consideration of various eX- tremeIy smart shops this season has led me into the hopeful conclusion that this season may display some inter esting novelties. I saw, for instance, at a Bond street shop Ca delightful pink and white chocolate-boX sort of emporium, by the way) two or three wonderful new gowns that I think are more or Less worthy of description. There was one of black satin, yelled by skirt of rather coarse net, heavily embroidered with immense jet leaves and flowers and the veinings of the leaves being done with turquoise out lined with tiny seed pearls
 The bodice was of white satin, with an exquisite embroidery that formed square cut decolletage, and narrow straps instead of sleeves of heavy pera1 embroidery arranged in flower-like shapes, also with brilliant blue tur- quoise centers. Drawn up as it were over this white satin bodice was a blouse-like over-bodice of black net embroidered like the skirt in black paillettes. but without the accompany ing turquoises.

improperly heralded in the newspapers as a "bad cowboy" In this way a wrong impression is given out of the true character of the genuine cowbov As a class they are fearless, adyen- turous, absolutely truthful, and always reliable. I never have known a class Of men who. can be so thoroughly re- lied upon. When it is time to have fun they have it, but when the lime for business arrives they attend to if thoroughly and well.
 Concerning the uniforms and eouin- ments of the men, the plan is to have distinct uniform which will be botb serviceable and ornamental and char acteristic of them. They are men of taste and appreciate good clothes. In my Judgment their equipment-that IS, saddles, brides, etc.-are the best that the world has ever seen, and I have no doubt that they will be per mltted to retain them. As to arms. I shall endeavor to avoid everything that is useless except for ornament, in cluding sabres, and have the men fur nished, if possible, each with a couple Of six-shooters, and a long range rife. In close quarters they can guide their horses with their knees and handle a six-shooter in each hand. In this way they would be more effective than if they were required to use a saber.
 As to the time needed to get organ 1zed, l have already communicated with good, true men in all parts of Wyoming, and they are busy, in a quiet way, getting the names of the boys and making ready so as to re- spond immediately If occasion shall require.
 Regarding the horses likely to be used, they would, of course, be native Wyoming horses. Our boys would not ride blow horses We have, I believe the best horses on earth. Last year a deputy sheriff summoned an outfit of our boys to go with him as a posse They rode grass-fed, bare footed horses and covered thirty miles in one hour and fifty minutes
 They would prove to be ideal fight CTS. They have all had experience os the frontier, and, first and last, mosi of them have had experience Tn charg ing and retreatlng under difficult cir | cumstances, and know all about In dian fighting. If the method of war fare of the Spaniards in Cuba is a fai sample of their fighting capabilitie. they would be able to secure libera education by facing our boys.

Persevering along to the perlod when he makes precar1ous hVlhs d. the business, though still embarrasseo by frayed ankIets on his pants, ne branches out into court work-the goal of the stenographer's ambition. 1hen he is sure that his fortune IS as good as made.

By the time judgment is rendered his bill amounts to $50 or $100, or even more. Does he get it? Seldom. As a rule he has to wait until after the case has been car ried through the supreme court of the territory, the supreme court of the United States, issuance of writ of ex- ecution, and sale. Then if he is lucky enough to be on the victorious side he may, by cutting his bill in two, get perhaps one-half of that, and this, per haps, after from one to three years of patient or impatient waiting.
 But suppose he is on the losing side? An! there is the awful rub.
 And so it is that outsiders seeing a stenographer paid s1O, $20 or $50, envy him his knowledge and position, but they never see his accounts against penurious and 1mpossible-to-collec from attorneys and their clients. And they know nothing of the weary hours of both day and night put in at the machine on thank you' tasks.

LITTLE MINDS.
They Know Few Things and Dem
 OnStrate Them

Out near the water works lives a six year-old. One day last week he was sent to the kindergarten school for the first time. At noon he returned home, ate his lunch and was loitering laZily about the house when his mother suggested that he had better be start ing for school. Mamma, didn't go to school this morning?" "Yes, Wal ter," said his mother. Well ain't 1t about time for me to have a holiday?" His mother thought so, too, and gave him one.
 Saturday morning this same Wal ter saw small load of kindling wood at the door of a neighbours house. He asked if he might carry it in and the task was assigned him. In the even ing the man of the house was called upon by the youngster who demanded his pay for putting in the wood. The man had nothing smaller than a sil- yer dollar, which he handed to Wal ter intending to instruct him to go and get 1t changed. But before he could give such instruction Walter inquired in a very indignant tone, Say, Judge, is this all I'm to get for putting in all that wcod?"
 The following from Tid-Bits is wor- thy of reproduction in this column:
 "Boys," began the Sunday school superintendent, impressively, 'I hope none of you will ever get into the rep rehensible habit of alluding to your father as the old man. When you grow up, no matter how big or old you may be, you should always look up to and respect the silver hairs of your father, who has grown bent and gray working for you in your helpless infancy. Now, all of you who think you can do this, please raise your right hands," Up went every hand except one. Sternly eyeing the delinquent, the superintendent sol emnly observed: "Why, young man, I am mortified absolutely horrified- as we'll as astonished at your beha- vior. Don't you wish to raise your hand and put yourself on record as being willing to respect the gray hairs of your father when you grow up to be a man?" "No. No use tryin'; can't do it nohow," unblushingly responded the lad. Why not, sonny" Cause he ain't liable to have no gray hair. Dads bald" chirped the youthful philoso- pher, triumphantly, and amid a gen eral litter the discounted superinten- dent gave it up, and passed on to something else.

 A certain lawyer of Phoenix relates the following of one of his own boys: My wife and I determined that the children should have comprehensive minds before religion had any place in their teachings, and so it was never talked in their hearing. Neither were they permitted to read anything in that line. One Sunday my eldest boy, then about years of age, expressed desire to go to church. There was no objection made and he went Upon his return home he remarked: Well l don't care to go there any more J Asked why not, he replied: Why they don't do a thing but pray, and read advertisements about God"

FALSE HOPES.
The Stenographer Rehearses the Woes
 of Stylus Wielders.

One of the busiest stenographers of Phoenix talking yesterday to a friend took occasion to review to some extent the life and work of his class. To re- peat all that he said on the subject would make an article over a column in length, but the substance is given and it may possibly deter some of the young and rising generation from adopting the cutoff style of getting things down.
 The young man starts in to learn and finds it no easy task to compre- bend the marks and dots. Practice, practice, hours every day and think and dream marks and dots by night In a year or two perhaps, he is we'll
