The evening boa is not only not obso-
lete, but is more in evidence this season
than ever before. Smart women wear
them TO the knees, made of the softest
Liberty silk poppies' petals falling one

the boa is usually a long roll as big as
ones finger, stuffed with wool and thor

There are not many things more fash
ionable this month than fur toques or
tiny pompadous bonnets with one exalted
dazzling white feather Haunting in front.
Mink and chinchilla and smoked Russian
fox are the bonnets most sought after,
while their close rivals are toques Of an
tique velvet in automobile, peryenche
and dahlia, with three brown eagle quills
cooked up in front. BY day women con-
tinue TO arrange their hair according to

and such queens of clothesland as Mrs
Stuyvesant Fish, Mrs. Goelet- etc, carry
all their hair up in a small tall knot for
ward of the crown. This pushes light
pompadour over the brow. To the small,
tall knot is fastened huge bow of back
velvet ribbon that is not wriinkled. and
through The hair the knot is passed and
crossed by two long pronged pins, shaped
like hat skewers and showing most fam
ciful jeweled beads.
This is a head decoration easy to copy,

of large irregular pearls and paste dia-
monds show off to great advantage and
small outlay by night.

Mrs. John Jncoh Astor.

Mrs. John Jacob Astor is certainly a
radiant creature. On the opening night
of the opera she showed not trace OF her
recent illness, and the regal figure in the
soft gray satin dress with the tiara and
ropes of diamonds. was the cynosure Of
all eyes She attracted more attention
than Nine. Emma Eames upon the stage,
and whispers of How sweetly pretty Mrs.
Astor looks tonight were heard all over
the house to the strains of Wagnerian
accompaniment. During the entr'>actes the
Astor box was filed with the handsomest
and most brilliant men in the house. for
Mrs. William Astor is without doubt the
high priestess of New Yorix's fashionable
society today. A bow, cordial smile OF
recognition, but above all an invitation 10
one of her ceremonious dinners gives a
man cachet that nothing else can suppy.
With the stamp of Astor approval debu-
tantes and beaux can feel assured of their
social position.
Mrs. Astor is as popular with the older
men as she is with the young ones. and
to be seen in her opera box Is a kind of
patent of social nobility. and an introduc-
ton to her is a very important item in
a young mans social equipment. for what
ever she does at once becomes the fash
ion. 1t is rarely that a woman so frankly
worshiped by the masculine half of the
world is also a favorite with her own sex.
but Mrs. Astor's high-bred face and gen.
tie manners arouse more enthusiasm than
envy even among women less fortunate
than herself.
Col. John Jacob Astor Is also immensely
popular just now, for the halo of the mill
tary hero is around his head. His pa
triotism and the soldierly simplicity OF MS
bearing during the late war earned him
more friends than were ever attracted BY
his millions, and the fact that he neither
asked nor wanted any reward in the way
of political preferment added greatly to
his popularity.

wife with means of retaliation

The Burlington's New Trains

Railroad men who have had the
privilege OF examining the four
new trains which the Burlington
Route, on the lst of May, placed
in service between Denver and
Chicago say they are as magnif-
comfy equipped as any in the
country that even the famous
limited expresses between Chicago
and New York are not handsomer
or more luxurious. Every car is
wide vostibuled, and was built es-
pecially for the Burlington Route
The four trains are identical in
appearance and arrangement
Each is composed of buffet
smoking -librarycar, q palace sleep
ing-car, and two reclining-chair
cars. The buffet-smoking-hbrary
Chicago line, 1t is a veritable
clubhouse on wheels, where one
may read, write, smoke, talk or
play cards. while travelling at the
rate of fifty miles an hour. 1t is
handsomely carpeted and furnish
ed with settees, cushioned easy
chairs, lavatory, writlng-desk,
a compartment for card-players,
and well-stocked buffet. The
current periodicals and news
papers are on file, and a carefully
selected library is provided for the
free use of passengers. The sleep
ing ear is gem, and the chair
and dining-cars are in every way
worthy of the train of which they
form an important part.
The Burlington Route takes
palatial trains through TO Omaha
and Chicago in marvellously quick
time. Leaving Donver at $50
a. m. today on one of them you
are landed in Chicago at 2:l5 to-
morrow afternoon, there making
close connections with trains for
all points east, The running time
from Denver to Chicago is only |
twenty-seven aud three-quarter
hours. just how fast that is will |
be best understood when it is
stated that it is almost five hours
faster than the fastest schedule
in effect prior to February 8, 1898.

lustrates one of the most vicious
of municipal government in this
country. The object of official
publications is two-fold. The first
is to give the taxpayer, who must
foot the bill, the best return for
his money. The second is to put
the matter in the paper having the
largest circulation. The object
is not to reward the efforts of a
partisan boss in favor of one party
or another; it is not to keep alive
a newspaper by dripping from a
municipal treasury. If such Off

an advertisement which gives him
the least return, instead of the best
return, for his money. 1t is cor

necessary, if a movement is to sue

former in due time.
The novelty of bringing forth and
discussing a new theory is very at
tractive and entertaining at first, but
unless it is followed up by something
more substantial soon it tires and dis
gusts the active, energetic mind, and
thus falls Nat.
This is one danger that threatens
the socialistic movement in America
today. Theorizing, unless followed
up by practice, must and ought to go
to the wall. But the B c c. don't pro-
pose to have it that way. We have
the courage of our convictions, are
willing to try and practice what we
preach. and fail to understand the
philosophy of the ''feller" who is anx-
ious for socialism to prevail, talks for
it, swears by it, would lay down his
life for it, but at the same time will
neither help make a practical DEM

"A letter from a new and valuable
member to the B G G:
Bro. Stuart has spent the greater
part of a long and useful life in
studying and teaching the theory OF
socialism. From the standpoint OF
scientific socialism, very few men are
in better position to Judge of the
value of of any given scheme for So
cial betterment.
He says: THE colony idea is not
merely sentimentalism but rather a
desire to escape from the lack OF
work. The degrading solicitation for
work by the employees and the equally
degrading competition for contracts
by the employers. Thousands of men
are willing to put up with little
temporary personal inconvenience to
escape the miserable competitive
struggle. We do not object to a So
cialist however scientific" invest

we object to any number of socialists

and thus make a comfortable living.

any particular regard as 10 how it
will affect the social evolution"
