Gossip Of
the Rn&ler5

The trout season is near at hand.
Some anglers there are who love to take
their rod in hand early and not part
with it until the fall brings it's first
flurries of snow. There are those, again,
who find but little pleasure in fishing
from an ice-fringed bank, with raw
wind blowing. However, it all depends
upon how man feels about it. There
is no doubt that some enjoy early fish
ing as much as others do late fishing.
In the course of another month, at
most, fishing will be good and then
the angler will be found at Avon. Dill
lon, Helena, Heron, Spring Hill. Butte,
Eliston, Gold Creek, Park City, Bill
ings, Custer, Gallatin, Noxon, Town
son Falls, Saltwater, Missoula, Garri-
son and at a hundred other places
where trout are wont to respond to the
allurements held out,
The American Angler for April con-
tains some excellent suggestions for
fishermen:
Every one, says "Old Fin should
take when he goes fishing fine and

lump of cobbler's wax between two
folds of leather, and strong, sharp

breakdowns that are constantly occur

If YOUR rod does not unjoint easily
do not get in hurry, or you may re-
pent it, Take hold of the two pieces
as close to the joint as you can and pull.
A wooden rod you may twist the joints
in opposite directions, but you must be

the Joints do not come apart heat the

single match to be sufficient generally,
but if this fails take your rod home, set
it in a dry place for day or two, and
try again.
If you wish to remove a ferrule, do

GIRLS SHOULD BE FLEET.
They Should Be Taught to Run in Theil
Youth.

Youth.
Athletics will save the American wo
man from the nervous disease of her
sex and her country. So says a great
authority on physical strength and en-
durance.
The American girl can be saved by
proper physical training from hecom-
ing the American woman with nerves"
said William Blaik!e, author of How
to Get Strong and How to Stay So
This physical training should begin
during the earlier years of childhood
Take, a girl at her fifth birthday and
teach her to run slowly, with erect car
riage, as far as she can with comfort
every secular day until she reaches h2r
majority: suppose by IS she ran as far
as she could with comfort in 10 min
utes, would it trouble her much at IS
or at q to run a mile at a good pace,
too?
TT is not likely that even several
miles under faVOring circumstances
for instance. in a hare-and-hound game
would not disturb her. Had she been
taught to run properly, never touching
her heels to the ground and springing
lightly from her toes and soles, to hold
her arms practically motionless, her
chest high--as near her chin as she
could get it and keep it there-do you
think that the muscles she used in run
ming through all these years would te
weak? Would she have half-develOped
lungs or well developed ones? Would
the muscles which held her body erect
be easily up to their work, and would
it not be natural for her to be erect or
not?
Looking at a girl so trained" con-
tinued Mr.. Blaikie, 'do we not recall
Emarson's saying that in all human
action those faculties will be strong
which are used? She has been intelli-
gently using certain parts of her body
! and limbs for many years; not violent
| ly, not OVERRIDING Them but nationally.
This built them up and made them
| strong precisely as it did for her
brother, who ran with her in all these
! daily stretches. Her most important
muscle, her heart-thus, also, trained to
! strong, steady sensible, but never vio-
| lent. daily eXercise-gained steadily n

Modieska's Private Car.

The great tragedienne travels in her
own private car, "Modjeska." When
this car was built a few years ago it
was thought that the art of car con-
struction and finish had reached per-
fection. A comparison. however, be-
tween Madame Modjeska's car as it
stood last week in the Milwaukee sta
ton during her engagement here and
the magnificent cars of the Milwaukee, S
Pioneer Limited" demonstrated the
wonderful advance made in car build
ing during the past few years. The
finish beautiful inlaid woodwork
tapestries and the massive make up OF
this celebrated train must be seen tc
be appreciated. The travelling public
is certainly indebted to the Milwaukee
road for service and comforts to-day
between st. Paul, Minneapolis and Chi
cago the best in the world.

IS YOUR BOY LOST?
If So, There Is One Who Is Awaiting His

If So, There Is One Who Is Awaiting His
Parents at the Sheriff's Office.
Yesterday afternoon the little daugh-
ter of j. G. Maloy of 316 East Third
street, accompanied by a little boy,
entered the sheriff's office, and, address,
ing herself to Chief of Police Jack
White, told him she had found the boy
wandering around the streets appar-
emily lost. The poor little fellow SEEM
ed ito be feeling cold, being dressed
only in a light. neat suit Of clothes. He
was asked his name, but he was too
young to talk.
Chief White asked the little girl to
take the little boy to her parents home
and that he would try and find the boy s
parents.
In speaking of lost children, they tell
a good story in the sheriffs office about
Officer McMasters. Last week the Off
Ger found lost boy in the west end
of the town and he brought it down to
the sheriff's office. He was there in
formed that the boys parents resided
in the east end of the city. officer Nc
Masters was feeling tired after having
carried the child for six blocks, so he
went to a secondhand store, bought a
baby carriage and took the lost boy
home in it. He then brought the baby
carriage back to the city hall and
placed it in the hall. 1t is said that the
officer intends to place an advertise
ment in the paper which will read some
thing like this:
For Sale-A second hand baby car
riage, cheap. Owner has no more use
for it. Apply at the city hall"

The New street Costum es.

One of the smartest of women's
tailors is making the simplest of street
costumes this season, but manages to
give each one distinctive touch that
stamps it as novel and individual. One
of these costumes is of an odd shade
of dark green, frightened with touches
of creamy castor in the same material.
The close fitted skirt has front panel
which reaches to within couple of
inches of the ground and is outlined
with double row of heavy machine
stitching. On either side of this panel
is narrow CLEAN of castor cloth,
which also peeps out from beneath
the green cloth skirt at the foot. The
trim little jacket reaches few inches
below the waist all round, and the
basque has scarcely any fulness. A
vest of the castor cloth is fanked by
the double rows of machine stitching,
which also outline the basque. Round
ed lapel revers of the castor come from
the shoulders, where an odd yoke ef-
feet is obtained by triangular piece
Of cloth being stitched from the base
of the high collar to the shoulder
seam and arm hole. Another costume
created by this original tailor is of
black rough cloth and has vest of
scarlet, raided with black and revers
and cuffs of white, braided with black.

sandow's Advice to Women.

Sandow has been telling London
women what he things of feminine
athletics. Heasserts that women can
preserve an ideal figure by fresh air
and exercise, and by these two factors
only. He disapproves entirely of cor
sets, which he qualities as tight
splints, and he attributes to their use
the weakness of the muscles of the
back and susceptibility to lung dis
ease. Naturally he condemns eighteen
inch waists, and prefers the Venus OF
Milo, with her twenty-four inches of
circumference.
But, though he advises outdoor
sports, while not considering them as
good as the ancient game of ball
played by Nausicaa and her maidens,
he says that it is the muscles of the
trunk which require exercise in order
to hinder the increase of embonpoint,
and neither cycling, walking nor row.
ing sufficiently employs these mus lies.
No woman need fear, he says, to be-
come too muscular, as layer o1
adipose tissue is peculiar to her struc.
ture, and is really intended to soften
the outlines.

Sage Advice.

It is not often that lawyer gives
better advice, and asks no fee for it,
than was once given by certain Irish
Judge, who must have had both sense

some time, put question to him

SNOWY Draperies for Winter Days.

Much white is to be worn this win
ter, and cloth gowns of pure white
and cream color, trimmed with sable,
will be among the smartest of the
wealthy woman's gowns. Only a
rich woman could afford to wear such
costume, as, of course, it will be very
perishable las far as its spotless purity
is concerned), and the woman who
can have but one or two cloth costumes
would be insane to invest in such a
conspicuous luxury as white cos
tune. House dresses of white veil
ing, crepe and foulard, and of light
weight satin dotted woolen goods are
to be much used, and tea gowns OF

An Odd Superstition.

Repeated reports have reached the
United States of disaffection in the
ranks of the Filipinos fighting under
Aguinaldo, and their dissatisfaction
with his personal treatment of his
men. In view of this it has probably
occurred to many that it is strange
that there are not more desertions
among his men. The explanation Of
this undoubtedly lies in the super
stitious nature of the natives.
Their unique beliefs are many, but
the most potent in restraining his
men from deserting his cause is the
belief that is prevalent among them
that he bears charmed life and can
not be killed by American ullets.
They think he could show himself in
the front rank of his army all day
without being injured by an American
bullet.
The natives themselves may be rem
dered impervious to American bullets
by the simple adoption Of a charmed
shirt, called the anting anting. 1t is
nothing more nor less than piece Of
cotton with a hole for the wearer's
head, worn over the shoulders and
fastened at the waist. Upon it are
cabalistic signs, pictures and writings
in four or five different languages
which give the garment its peculiar
properties. Philadelphia Times.

That New Young Man.

The old tradition that man should
cherish his wife. support her as some
thing infinitely delicate and precious,
shield her from the world, and regard
her not as the pleasant companion Of
the hunting field and smoking rooms
but as the being associated with the
deepest and most enduring sentiment
of his heart, has of course no signi-
ficance for the new young man, and it
is only just to say that the n lern
woman has given him every iustifica-
tion for his belief that she can push,
trample and fight as successfully as
the most insensitive male. The sis
tiers and mother of the new young
man, if they happen to belong to the
old order of women, are rot to be con-
graduated. They will fini themselves
one day signing for the old-time young
man, with his chivalrous ideas about
women andshis stupid, unenlightened
conviction of his own inferiority in
most things except force, which he
delighted to use for their benefit and
admiration. Chicago Times Herald.

uow Tilt the Hat.

The arrangement of the hair at the
nape of the neck is one which creates
great difficulties in millinery matters.
Nothing is more terrible or disfgur
ing 10 the contour of the face than
gap between the crown of the hat and
the coils of the hair. Yet many,
many girls are to be seen who allow
themselves to be such objects.
A veil brought around thickly un-
der the chin and tied above the brim
sometimes mitigates the evil, but it
exists, nevertheless, and another one
attendant on it, viz, the angle at
which the hat is worn, setting in alb
solutely straight line across the
head and coming low down on the
forehead, with the result that becom-
ingness is reduced to a minimum.
The angle for the hat when the Golf
fure is low is slightly off the forehead
when the comb, now so much in vogue,
is inserted at the base of the crown
coils; then the hat tips slightly down

Luxury For Telephone Girls.

The life of a telephone girl is not
altogether happy one, and if the
public have sonnet mes reason to COM
plain of the invisible operator who
fails to put them in Immediate con-
nection with their correspondent, the
girl has still oftener reason to COM
plain of the public. In Paris the
claims of these useful and much
maligned public servants have been
recognized, and splendid building
has been put up for them by NJ. Bous-
sard in the Rue Desrenaudes. It in
cludes every modern comfort and ovn-
venience, well-ftrnished saloons to
which the girls may retire for periods
