except for the bell shape, which will be i'm

the front will be cut squarer than last

Cheviot will be popular material this

shades of dark green will be noticeable. In
fact. green will be the fashionable color.
from all appearances. Extremely dark
shades Of the color will be the most fash
ionable and patterns in which it merely ap-
pears will also be much worn. Green will
also be popular for fancy vests.
Stripes will be the order Of the winter as
regards pattern. The unobtrusive stripe Of
slightly darker color than the body OF
the material will have a large sale, while
dark grays with a thin dark stripe will be
also much worn. The prevailing colors may
be described as medium. inciining to neither
light nor dark. Flannels will be strictly
out of place as material
The entire tendency Of the styles may be
described by the one Observation-Disclosures
And while the shape of the trousers may
be a radical change, they will retain their
quiet appearance on account Of their quiet
shades. Light trousers will be worn with
ouble-breasted coats Of dark color and
with frock coats. but otherwise the suits
will be of solid pattern.

THE IDEAL GAMELAND.

Frederic Ireland In Scribner's.
ON a bright June day, l07 years ago q
Scotch fur trader, toiling up the Peace
River to its southwestern source. came 10
the place where the stream issued from be-
meath great bank of snow. Crossing a
little pond, and scarcely disturbing the
many wild fowl and beaver. he lifted his
travei-worn birchbark over piles Of drift
wood into an ill-natured streamlet. which
smashed his canoe. but at last bore him
down to q wide, unknown river. Learning
from the Indians whom he met that this
river ran a very long way toward the mid
day sun. and at last fell into great water.
which was not good to drink. Mackenzis
made the shrewd. but erroneous guess that
the river he had found was the Columbia
It was, In fact. the Fraser.
This mistaken surmise. being printed In
a book. was the cause Of British claims to
the whole Oregon country. only settled
when, in 1s4s. Mr.. James Buchanan. Sec
retay Of State. by advice Of the United
States Senate quitclaimed to Great Britain
all the unexplored region west OF the ROCKY
Mountains. which Russia had conceded 10
the United States, but which went to form
the southern half OF the Province OF Brit
.sh Columbia. Thus our fathers lost po-
ljtical control over the country. but to those
of us who love to shoot and fish 1t matters
little what flag floats there When. at the
command Of God. those mountains rose out
of the sea, he made country for men to
marvel at as long as they inhabit the earth
He created q spacious home for his Wild
creatures that come at no mans bidding
He piled up a labyrinth of mountains. with
snowy tops. where the rivers are born that
win cease not to chfsel the rocks away. un-
til the diminished hills no more intruds

walks were taken up and packed into
wagons. All the teams for miles around
had been pressed into service.
Many a woman looked back as the odd
procession moved away. There under those
trees. which she had watched with so much
pride, her children had played; there she
had stood to watch for the little ones as
they had come home from school. and still

ical changes Will be found in this winters
styles, as opposed TO those of last year. To
state briefly the most radical OF these de-
partures, IL may be said that the increased
breadth In trousers at the knee and their
narrowness at the bottom will be the main
points The seat for young men will be
cut rather wide. as will also the legs below
the waist. The waist will be tight TO
marked degree. In suits In general, the
most important design is the prevalence of
the military idea of tight waist and broad
shoulders with fiaring bottoms to the coats
irrespective Of type.
The military. idea will be very popular.

rels were packed into wagons. and the
shelves cleared of everything that would roll
about in the shaking that would come when
the road happened to be rough.
The bank and the town hail were the
largest of the buildings. They were the re-
cipients Of much attention from the con-
tractors. who regarded the fifteen-mile Jour-
ney with concern. Most Of the houses were
small frame affairs. and they were not hard

had hopes. high hopes that II would land
the prize. but the rival town OF Platte was
the winner. Castalians had to swallow
their disappointment and modification.
They were sensible people, those Castaiians.
and they did not believe In biting of ones
nose to spite ones face. They considered.
A town meeting was called and Il was de-
cided TO move to Platte. They could not
compete with the inhatitahts of a town
which held a railroad station and a teie-
graph Office.
The exodus began one fine day recently.

A large crowd gathered TO see the wheels

furnished by the moving town. With true
American grit the Castalians did not allow
the move to interfere with business. Not
until the morning of the move did the mer-
chants pack their goods. Dry goods, boots
