Weather Has Furthered
Dress Reform.
ExpONENrs OF THE SHORT SKIRT
Are Making Many Converts, and Pro-
gressive Women Have Resolved to
be Comfortable in Rainy Wealth
er-Miss Shelley's Dinner.

The weather of yesterday favored the
opponents of rainy day costumes. A wave
in favor of short skirts for rainy days has
submerged feminine minds. and the pro-
gressive woman of today. SO eager to seize
every opportunity for Improvement of con-
ditions, is realizing the necessity Of certain
reforms, of which she alone holds the key
to the situation.
There are comparatively few women who
care for dress reform, but there are not
many women who do not realize the clean
illness and comfort of short skirts for
rainy days. 1.-THE reaction in favor of
sensible Dress" said a woman, yesterday,
Twill necessarily result in women adopting
rainy day costumes. The weather of to-
day emphasized the fact that Birmingham
women prefer bedraggled skirts to the sem
sible rainy day costumes"
She looked entirely responsible for this
sad change laid at the feet OF Birming-
ham women.

for cleanliness, prefers wet, clinging

ever, would universally adopt the short
skirts My husband approves of them en-
tirely. I have made up my mind to shorten
my black cloth gown of last season, invest
In leggings and all other details for an up
to-date rainy day costume"
A number of club women have been In
terviewed this week upon the subject,
which will be brought up for discussion at
the Woman's club on Saturday.
They spoke enthusiastically in regard to
the matter. Beyond all question the ma
jority of women are willing to indorse
rainy day costumes, and an official In
dorsement fromN the Woman's club would
place at once an obligation upon its mem
bers to encourage this comfortable and
sensible dress for wet weather. The sub

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
Sive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelliug colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants. by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP

DEAR SIR:
Prominent stock men in North Da-
kota and western Minnesota have sug-
gested the holding of an Inter State
Stock Raisers' Convention in Fargo,
about the middle Of July next. The
argument used is this: North Dakota
and eastern Montana have three great
systems of railways, viz: The Northern
Pacific through the central parts, the
Great Northern on the northern part,
and the $500" running diaaonally from
southeast to northwest; each system
running through a heavy stock country.
Each is so located that stock raisers on
the western ranges Of North Oak ota ami
eastern Montana cannot meet and dis
cuss matters of mutual interest unless
they meet either here or ut some point
further east
The stock interests in the territory
named are SO great that it seems that it
would he good business policy for. those
who have SO much capital invested that
they should meet and exchange ideas
on much broader scale than can be
done in any local meeting. That being
the case. | have the honor, in behalf Of
The city of Fargo, of inviting you to meet
! with your brother stock men in the city
Of Fargo about the middle of July next .
We have the written assurance that the
Hon. james Wilson, Secretary of. the
Department of Agriculture, will be here
at some date in July to be fixed by him,
as soon as the dates of the Presidents
western trip has been decided on, Of
which due notice will be sent you as
soon as the time is asccrtained. We
can also assure you that President James
j. Hill Of the Great Northern Railway
will also attend and give the convention
the benefit Of his experience in the i'm
provement of the stock in the north
west. We have also been assured that
other men ofnationul reputation, among
them Senator Hansbrough, will be. here
and give addresses to the convention.
Yours truly,
j. A. JOHNSON, "
Mayor Of Fargo, n. D.

INTELLIGENCE or HORSES.


Many Are OF tho Opinion That Horse
May Weep.
Do horses weep? is I, question dis.
cussed by the Admiralty and Horse
Guards Gazette. 1t tells us that there
is a. Observation-Disclosures case Of a horse
weeping during the ,Crinean war. On
the advance. to the heights of Alma, a
battery of artillery became exposed to
the fire of q concealed Russian battery,
and in the course of a few minutes it
was nearly destroyed, men and horses
killed and wounded, guns dismounted
and .linbcrs broken; a solitary horse,
Which had apparently escaped unhurt,
was observed standing with fixed gaze
upon an object close beside. him; this
:.rned out to be his late master, quite
dead. The poor animal, when trooper
was dispatched to recover him, was
found with copious tears flowing from
his eyes; and it was only by main force
that he could be dragged away from
the spot, and his unearthly cries to get
back to his master We're heartrending.
Apropos of the intense love that cavalry
horses have for music, correspondent
of the Gazette writes that when the
Sixth Dragons recently changed their
quarters q mare belonging to one of
the troopers was taken so i'll as to be
unable to proceed on the journey the
following morning. Two days later
another detachment of the same regi-
ment, accompanied by the band, ar
rived. The sick mare was in loose
box, and, making her way through the
shop of tradesman. took her place in
the troop before she was secured and
brought back to the stable. But the ex-
element had proved too great, and the
subsequent exhaustion proved fatal, =
