Out of Her Mind,

Missoula, Sept. 2S.-A woman acting
in a strange manner at the Northern
Pacific depot Wednesday afternoon was
arrested and placed in the county Jail.
To a question asked her, she said that
she didn't know why she was locked
up in Jail. She says that her name is
Mrs. Belle Rhodes and that she was at
Garnet and had agreed to go to Muir
ray, Idaho, with a man, whose name
she could not remember, by team; that
when at Clinton he got tired of her and
put her off the wagon. She then took
the train for Missoula, but instead of
the conductor letting her off at Mis-
soula he forgot and took her as far
Florence. She then came back and was
going on to Murray by train when she
was arrested. She says that she has
lived a number of years in Anaconda
and was known there by the name OF
Mrs Belle Murray. 1t is also under
stood that her husband was sick in the
hospital in Missoula several years ago.
Why she was refused a ride with the
man that she started with from Gar
net she could not say. In speaking to
Sheriff Curran about her, he says that
she is either out of her mind or under
the influence of liquor. If it is liquor
that has the best of her the sheriff will
let her go as soon as she is able to go,
but if she is out of her mind, she will
be examined for insanity.

pected that by Sunday, the concluding
day of the mission, more than 1000 will

Among the most interesting and at
tractive novelties in the Petticoat line,
is the Adjustable Yoke Underskirt. The
feature of this skirt is the yoke, which
may be adjusted to any size by a series
of hooks and eyelets placed at the back.
When the skirt size is adjusted the yoke
is then closed at the center back by
buttons and buttonholes.
Lastly, this skirt is splendidly adapted
for the styles of the present season,
when the close-fitting dress skirt will
call for an equally perfect fit in the
underskirt The yoke once adjusted
to the figure adds no bulk, but pre-
serves the outlines on all figures as
perfectly as would petticoat made
to order and fitted to each individual
figure.
The illustration shows the skirt adj
justed to give the sudden spring over
the hips, the fullness being allowed by
giving an extra eyelet at the lower edge
of the yoke. When this fullness is not
needed the yoke may be hooked
straight. By this means the skirt band
may be worn tight or loose fitting, as
preferred. and is always comfortable.
slightly and convenient.

No Contract Drawn.

Missoula, Sept. ga tie cutter by
the name of P. A. Gillon brought suit
against Bonner & Price for the sum
of $3.50. which he claims is due him
as balance for the cutting of about
$500 ties. The case was filed in the
justice court of William Hayes short
time ago, but was taken on a change
of venue to the justice court of Will
lam Houtchens. The case was heard
without jury, and Judge Houtchens
will render his decision Friday MORN
ing. The trouble seems to be that no
contract was drawn up and that Gill
lon wants a certain price for the cut
ting of the ties, while Bonner az Price
claim that they did not agree to pay
such a price, and that he has not de-
livered the number of ties as stated
in the COMPLAINT.
