VANITY FAIR.

New York women have risen in thelr might and downed the fashionable and expensive ladies' tailors. Recently the employees of these big firms went on a society women who heard their pit1ful stories banded together, raised $50,O0O and will have a factory of their own, where all the strikers are to have em- ployment, besides an interest in the business. The starters of the enter prise promise to have all their tailor gowns made there and the fashionable tailorS are aghast.
 One of the present craZeS of Paris Is the zebra, recently sent by Emperor Menelik to President Faure and placed by him In the zoo, which is thronged by Sfght-seers, who enthuSe over the ami maj, which is an admirable one of it's species and the second to be imported into Europe.
 A curious social revolution has been brought about in Paris. Before this the drawing-rooms of the old French fam flies were dramatically sealed to for eigners and social aspirants. Neither money nor beauty nor position suff1ced to break the barriers set up by the naughty grand danes of the Fauborg. All this is changed. Women such as the Duchess d'Uzes and Duchess de la Rochefoucauld have decided to open their salons to strangers on the pay ment of a fixed sum, the money to go to charity. Where 1t was once thought an extraordinary honor to penetrate into these drawing now that for 75 cents any one can get in, as one can gain admission to a theater, the idea is drowned upon by the high bred foreigners and it is noticed that the wife of the American Ambassador, Mrs. Horace Porter, and other leading American women in Paris have sedu- lously summed the drawing rooms of the duchesses since the practice went into execution.

U%ndisputed Claims.

The following dispatch has been re-
ceived from Senator Stewart by the Reno
Journal and will be OF interest to many:
WASHINGTON, d. O., Feb. 4. 1898.
EDITOR JOURNAL: III pursuance Of a
general understanding q bill embracing
the great mass Of undisputed claims was
reported to-day BY Mr.. Teller from the
Committee on Claims, OF which Senator
Stewart lie g member. The Nevada WAT
claims. amounting TO over s4oo. 600. the
Piute war claims and the claim Of Cover
nor Adams are included in the bill. The
difficulty with these bills has been failure
in the House after they had passed the
Senate. 1t is hoped that punching shs
claims together will interest enough mem
bers TO procure consideration and passage
through the House.

Charges Thai Parties are sIsugh.
terfng Tame Horses.
The Legislature Of 1897 passed . law
authorizing the Commissioners to grant
permits 10 kill wild untamed horses, mares
and colts, over the age Of twelve months
found running at large on any Of the Gov
ernment range lands Of the State Of Me-
vsds. The law also authorizes to revoke
the permits so granted 81 any time. Stat
uses 1897, page 6s.
The intent Of the Legislature was good,
- there are thousands Of wild unbranded
horses, over one year Of age, running at
large on the Government range lands Of
Nevada, and could they be exterminated
In . lawful way. il would be of great ben
eft.
But by reason Of the law there are now
persons killing horses who have no per-
mits, and in the pursuit Of the wild IN
branded horses on Government range
lands. many gentle branded horses, moi
on Government range lands, that the
owaers value and have use for. are being
slaughtered right and left, and the In
dams horses are being exterminsted.
This is the result OF the abuse of the law.
A man takes Q rife and goes out 10 shoot
horses. What for2 Because he can sell
the hide for about 90 and the name sad
tail for about 80 cents. II he can kill and
skin i've horses . day be will get sl1.50
for his days labor for himself and gun
and ammunition. II might keep him
pretty busy TO kill five unbranded horses.
running 81 large on the Government
range lands Of Nevada, but il he can get
IN 10 Q gentle range he can get FIVE and
probably twenty easily. and thereby make
much more money. So the temptation is
constant 10 kill gentle horses, and very
many Of them are being slaughtered day
after day.
One man we know Of has about $l2, 900
invested In fine horses. Another over
81, 900 and several with from $4,000 70
1000. One man has colts running out
that cost $40 for the get, and another
purchased q stallion and two mares not
lsng ago and paid $500 for them and they
are all gone.
In q recent lot Of hides there were found
twenty-six branded hides belonging to
eleven different persons, zone Of whom
had authorized the killing OF their horses.
II one man has killed &c horses belong
ing 70 other people, all those engaged in
killing must have killed very many. When
you go to look up your work or saddle
horses in the Spring they may be missing
and you will have 10 go on foot or borrow
or buy a horse. This is all wrong.
II is as much against the law now to kill
Q horse as il ever was, and il the signs do
not change many people will wish they had
never killed Q horse.-Austin Rsveille.

Next Monday, the 14th Of February, will

about the fifteenth century. The day 10
sacred to 81. Valentine. who. according to
an ancient legend was beheaded ~ Rome
under the Emperor Clandius. Formerly
a valentine was q letter or poeticsl effu-
sion replete with compliments and express
sions Of admiration md sentiment, but in
these days OF desrth in the softer senti-
ments IS expressed in the olden time this
custom has fallen somewhat into disuse,
and in its stead the Questionable practice
OF sending anonymously so-eslled comic
valentines seems TO have been adopted.
