EASTER HEAD GEAR.
Local Milliners Hold Their Annual Levees.-
Exclusive Hats for Exclusive People.


The annual opening OF the Yakima
millinery stores is an event in more
ways than one The spring revival of
trade in feminine head gear means in
crease in shopping all around, for nice,
new hat suggests new dresses, shoes and
gloves. The opening of the millinery
exhibit at Mrs. Carey's on last Friday
and Saturday was followed by Mrs.
Rhnehart on Saturday, Monday and
Tuesday, while Mr.. and Madam Connoi-
ly entertained the elite on Monday and
in the latest shapes, materials and color
ings is supplemented by the advantage
that no two hats are alike. Every pur-
chaser is then assured that the hat she
selects is exclusive and at prices winsome
as the styles. In other words there is
no fashion in Easter hats, but they are
the Earliest and ARREST things that lady
wears the year around. The windows of
these millinery stores are artistically ar
ranged with all sorts of flowers and foli-
age that come with the spring to adorn
hats, with colors of amber. fuschia, tur-
quoise, lavender, heliotrope and others.
Then there are beautiful oxydized orna-
ments and pearl and chiffon trimmings,
Romsnesque buckles. shamrocks and
beau knots. All these to set off the high
crowned hats or redeem the flat hats
from the commonplace. The most mod
ish OF the millinery is made with French
back or the Tuscan crown with harmo.

Ferris wheel bow. Ribbon bows are big

makes homely woman, if there are any
such, alluring, and that IS what Easter
hats are made for-but make room for
the Easter hat; it has come to stay so

feminine beauty more enchanting. But

WASHINGTON, June q. - Secretary
Alger has returned to the city after an
absence of three weeks. during which
he visited New England and after
wards spent some time at his home in
Michigan. He says he has enjoyed his
outing very much and appeared bene-
fitted by the change.
To callers at his house during the
evening the secretary talked freely re-

senatorial honors, and of the printed
statements of the probability Of his

CHAPTER II.
A FRIEND IN NEED.

In vain did the prisoner protest that
he was the victim of false accusation;
that he was under no pecuniary obliga-
tions to Farmer Price, but that the
money paid to him by his employer, on
which the charge for his arrest was
based. was for services faithfully rem
dered.
The word of the wealthy farmer was
sufficient to deprive him of his liberty,
while his influence was such that he
could have Robins trial postponed for
almost an indefinite period. In truth
Zadie' father was aware that the young
mans confinement in Jail was an effec-
tual obstacle to his lovemaking, while
at the same time it cleared the way for
carrying out his plans Of marrying her
to Caleb Shurker. 81
But Edward Robin was not the kind
OF man to despair. Buoyant by nature,
possessed Of resolute will and great
confidence in his own resources he bore

At first Mr., Price was so dumfound-
ed by the discovery that he stood speech
less and trembling in the doorway.
Then, as he gradually awoke to full
realization of the deception which had
been played upon him. he began to
rave like one possessed. F.

his fist at the empty air. "But I'll

Then he hurried out to the barn and
harnessed his feesest horse to his
chaise. AS it was fully 30 miles to the
dominie's, he hoped that he might yet
intercept the fugitives. But he did not
go after them at once. as he had other
plans in view.

"Oh, tell me, Edward, have we lost
our way?" asked Polly in terrified
tones.
Sim afraid we save, my dear, ? he
replied, pressing her little hand to reas-
sure her.
"Oh what will become of usl" she
exclaimed, beginning to cry. '.These
mountains are filed with all kinds Of
wild beasts, and We'll certainly be de-
voured before morning. u"
At that instant a stone came tum-
bling down the rocky trail.
It was mere pebble, but to Polly's
frightened ears the sound of it's fall was
like the crash Of an avalanche With a
cry OF terror she glanced quickly into
the darkness ahead, fully expecting to
see bear or catamount emerge from
the gloom. but she could distinguish
nothing.
"Did you hear that. Edward?'' she
whispered fearfully.
He motioned her to keep silent and
listen
Not sound broke the stiffness of the
solitude.
1t seemed that even the buzzing in
sects with which the forest abounded
were conscious of the approach of an
enemy. They were beginning to breathe
more freely when they heard rustling
noise in the bushes to their right. It
approached nearer and nearer. and
presently shadowy figure pushed out
OF the thicket and stood motionless in
the middle Of the trail.
1t was a man.
Scarcely had they recovered from
their surprise at his sudden appearance
when he covered them with the long
barrel Of rifle and cried out in tone

Here she gave terrified start, for she
thought she heard her father calling her.
But it was only the mournful wailing
Of an owl outside. Waiting until she
had recovered from her terror, she set
the lantern down on a table and tip
toed to the door opposite the hearth,
which opened into her fathers bedcham-

knob, she hesitated, trembling at the

to her room, when the thought that her
lover was expecting her inspired her
with renewed courage.

my dear Edwards freedom, nay, his
very life depends upon my bravery, and,

Having come to this resolution she
cautiously crept into the apartment. It
was utterly dark She paused a moment
to make sure that her father was sleep
ing and, hearing his heavy breathing,
began to creep forward again.
She was aware that he always kept
the keys to the cells in his coat pocket
But where had he hung his coat?
She began careful search Of the
room to find out and at last discovered
it hanging from the bedpost at his head.
She was now so near him that she could
distinguish the vague outlines of his
recumbent form in the darkness, and
again her heart beat, fast with appre-
hension. e...

Stretching forth her hand with cat

so anxious was he to please the rich
farmer that within five minutes from
the beginning of their interview, Price
left his presence armed with a warrant
for young Robin s arrest. issued on a
false accusation for debt.
With this document in his pocket the
old man hurried off to the constable's

constable's door. II want you to come
with me and arrest that scoundrel of a

in my debt.
''But do ye know whar to find him p
asked the officer
''Have no fear on that score" was
the reply. "He's run off with my darter
to get married, and We'll be sure to
find him at the dominie's.
''That is if we git thar before him, :"
returned the constable as he clambered
into the chaise '7..
A moment afterward they were fly
ing over the mountain roads as if pur-
sued by band Of furies
In the meantime the lovers had
reached the dominie's house and had
been accorded gracious reception. In
deed the good man smiled so benignly
as he ushered them into his parlor that
all their misgivings were allayed, but
when they stated the object of their
visit his countenance underwent a
change. He pursed up his lips. knitted
his brows and looked so wise and eau
tious that all their fears returned.
$50 you have run away to get mar
ried, he said with a dubious shake of
the head. "Well. you must grant me
time to consider the matter before I
consent to unite you"
After much parleying and delay the
dominic consented to perform the cere-
mony.
SO everything was made ready for the
marriage, and the young couple stood
up to plight their VOWS, when, just as
the ceremony was beginning, two men
burst furiously into the room. Zadie
uttered piercing cry and fell fainting
into the arms Of her lover. who, rem
dered desperate by this blighting Of his
hopes, had turned a defiant front to
the intruders

Reynolds, cried Farmer Price tri-
umphantly. "Five minutes more, and it
would have been too Latte Then,
pointing a forefnger at Robin, CHOW,
arrest that varlet at once" he added
fercely.
Realizing that resistance would be
useless, the young man submitted to his
fate, while Zadie, disconsolate and in
consolable, was taken back by her fa-
ther. Later in the day the unfortunate
Robin found himself an inmate Of the
Goshen Jail, companion of felons of
the basest sort, falsely accused, yet
without a single friend to rescue him
from the clutches of the law.
