Chicago Alderman Proposes Changes
In the style of Evening Dress.
alderman "Bathhouse John" Cough
lin of Chicago is going to branch out
into the fashion making business. He is
tired of the present styles of mems
evening dress, and he proposes some
radical changes. And he will "set the
pace" himself. Court costume is his
ideal dress. Berry Wall is the hero
whom he would emulate.
When summer rolls around, the al
derman will spend two months at So
ciety resorts in the east. He will carry
with him six sets of evening wear-one
set for every "dress suit" night in the
week. The suits will be made Of velvet,
and there will be no two alike in color.
One will be a cross between a silver and
a cream, another red, another blue, n
other green, another white and the 9th.
er wine color. The trousers will be of
the knickerbocker variety, and the
stockings will be made to match the
suit in color. The shoes will be after
the fashion Of those worn by the aris-
tocracy in the time of Louis XIV. The
buttons on the clothing will be silver
when the metal will harmonize with
the color of the cloth. The trousers will
be rather tight fitting, though not I'M
comfortably SO, and in shape the coats
will be but little changed from the
"spiketail'' of the present. The lapels
will be larger, however.
The waistcoats that the alderman will
wear are to be of different colors from
the coats and trousers. Blocked or
striped material will prevail with the
First ward statesman, though he will
be prepared to produce plain waistcoats
whenever he thinks them Eau fait."
The regulation dress shirt will be retain
ed in the new fashion, and the collars Of
today, too, will be the proper thing"
Alderman Coughlin has already ar
ranged with his tailor for the six suits
of clothes. Each suit is to cost him $40.
The alderman has decided to have his
hats made of colored silk, each one har
monizing with the particular suit with
which it is worn.--Chioago Record.

ABOUT BISHOP KENDRICK.
Energetic Missionary Bishop Who Endures
Toll and Hardship.

Bishop kendrick, of the Episcopal
diocese of New Mexico and Arizona, is
a genuine missionary bishop. Nearly ten
years ago he landed in his new field of
labor and preached his first sermon on
missionary soil in Las Vegas. He has
travelling over his diocese time and
again, encouraging the discouraged and
aiding in u%pbuilding the weak and
struggling churches until now he is pre-
pared to say that the Episcopal church
in New Mexico and Arizona has entered
upon a new era. AS Bishop Kendrick
explained it: THE work has been that
of opportunity alone. We awe gone
only into those fields where the greatest
cry for our assistance has been"
Vigorous and, growing churches are
now established at Santa Fe, Las We
gas, Albuquerque, Tucson, Phoenix and
Prescott. Each of these, the bishop
says, is gradually becoming self-sup-
porting, and the funds that have been
used in their assistance can be gradual
ly appropriated to local fields that have
beer less urgent in their demands. This
is the new era that Bishop Kendrick re-
fers to.
Bishop Kendrick, in December, 1897,
drifted down the Colorado river from
The Needles to the Indian agency at
Parker in a canoe with two or three at
tendants, and returned by the same
route. It took the party two days going
downstream and three days to return.
During one night only was the party
able to sleep in a house while On the
way. These and similar journeys told
sionary bishop.
One of the most interesting works
carried on in the bishops jurisdiction is
that of the hospital at Fort Defiance for
the benefit of the Navajo Indians. The
bishop does not secure the funds for
carrying on this work, about 1900 per
annum This is done by a society of
Episcopal ladies having their headquar-
tiers in Westminster county, N. Y. Miss
Thackara is the superintendent of the
hospital, Mrs. DR.. Harper Is the attend
ing physician, and Miss Garrett the
teacher. The hospital has u beds, and
consists of a stone building placed on
40 acres Of land donated for the purpose
by the Navajo Indians themselves. This
work is very successful, for, as Bishop
Kendrick explained it, the Navajos,
while suspicious of white men, place
great confidence in white women.-Op-

His Opinion WAS Candid, but Not
Quite Correct.
"This is the third time that | have

to one Of those professional critics who
make suggestions, whip things into

ouR puBLIc SCHOOL PRospERINd.
Model That Others Could Follow With Great
 Success.

The work in our public school is progressing most satisfactorily at the present time. There are over forty scholars, and a recitation room has been added to the building in order to accommodate the scholars.
 More teachers have been needed, but the appropriation would not warrant the superintendent in employing an ad- ditional teacher at this place. But our citizens were determined to have more teachers, and they have demonstrated that, "Whero there is a will there is a way" Three of our kind hearted and accommodating ladies volunteered to assist Miss Patten our teacher. Miss Constance Stowell offered to assist in teaching each morning. Mrs. w. P. Mills to teach music each day for a short time, and Mrs. Brady to give drawing lessons three times week.
 These kind offers were all accepted and we now have a first class school. The scholars are happy and are study ing hard, and their parents are grate- fuI for the kind assistance given their children by these volunteer teachers.
 Our citizens wanted good school and they have it. In some localities the people stay at home and growl be- cause they do not have better schools, and do not try to help themselves in a practical way until the government makes a sufficiently large appropria- tion for better schools. At Sitka we help ourselves and we have a good schooI.-Sitka Alaskan.

JUDGE JOHNSON.
lie Leaves The Bench A Second Samuel.

Judge Johnson and his most estima- ble wife left for Sitka on the Cottage City last week and the Judge has probably made his last official vis- it to these parts as judge of the dis trict court The record that Judge Johnson has made while on the bench is an enviable one and the manner in which he discharged the duties of the office has met with universal approval. He leaves the bench to engage in the practice of the law or, in other words, because the government is too parsi- monious to pay him half reasonable salary.
 That Judge Johnson will not preside over the district court of Southeastern Alaska is universally regretted not only by the public at large, but doubly so by the profession, for there are in- deed few judges who secure such a strong hold upon the affections of the lawyers as has Judge Johnson. Hewas kind, patient, considerate and able, and you can name no good quality in trial court that the Judge does not possess.
 When Samuel had judged Israel for forty years, he resigned his office.
 When this event took place he called the people before him and spoke to them as follows: "Behold here l am: witness against me before the Lord, and before his annointed: whose OK have l taken? or whose ass have taken? or whom have I defrauded? whom have l oppressed? or of whose hand have re- ceived bribe to blind mine eyes there with? and I will return it you. And they said thou hast not defrauded us, nor oppressed us, neither hast thou taken ought from any mans hand"
 He was the ideal judge of the bible and in every respect worthy of emula- tion, but had Judge Johnson called the people he judged before him and asked of them the same question, the same answer would have been given by them as was given to Samuel at the time of his resignation.
 We are pleased to wish Judge John son success in the step he is about to take and all Alaskans will join the News in wishing him to be as success ful in his practice as he has been just' honorable and honest in his office.

THEY ARE ONE.
An Indian Wedding at the Friends Church Last Friday Evening. Elder Replogie Per forms the Ceremony. The Bride and Groom. A Crowded
 House.
CONTINUED FROM LAST WEEK.

The speech made by officer Howard created such a good impression that those present concluded to stop the games and plays for while and en- gage in speech making.
 The name of L. s. Keeton, the jolly meat and produce dealer of Douglas City was called. Everybody common ced shouting for Keeton except doz- en who yelled "butcher! butchers" at the top of their voices. With down ward look and stated pace, MT. Keeton came forward and climbed up onto a chair, amid the cheers and hurrahs of those present. He spoke for some ten minutes in a manner that greatly pleased all present and left the i'm provised platform amid the plaudits of all in attendance.
 The next speaker was David Small wood, who proved himself to be quite an orator. Dave is we'll liked by both natives and whites. He held the chair for about five minutes.
 Alex. Smallwood was called while he was holding an Indian kid in his arms. He got onto the chair, but still held onto the kid. He was embarrassed at first, but soon overcome that. His talk was good and we'll received.
 The natives gave three cheers for the orators of the evening and it wasn't in half hearted manner either. The fact is that the natives were very much pleased to have the whites join them.
 Charly Cake, native christian then called for silence and complete order being restored, he offered up a most fervent prayer in the Indian tongue. Now you will think this ended the we'd ding jollification, but that is where you are mistaken. The most devout church members went to their homes, others announced that the festivities must not close until a dance took place. The orchestra consisted of violin and horn in the hands of two natives and the music they made was very good in deed. Billy Howard did the calling and the participants entered into this part of the amusement with much vim. The ceIerity with which the native girls got there" would do credit to the most free and easy white dance. Danc, ing was continued until between 3 and 4 o'clock when the festivities were de- clared off.
