The Fashions For Summer Headwear. ::

The Fashions For Summer Headwear. .
Undoubtedly the most important
change that has been made in forms
has reference to the crown. This, for
most hat shapes, is higher than they
have been hitherto, save for capelines,
fat at the top and rather wider at the
base. Some toques have dcmed
crowns, but many are shaped like hats,
the difference between them being
slight, and depending mostly on the
arrangement of the trimming and the
width of the brim-
The fiat toque was merely g passing
whim. A medium width Of hat btim
has been adopted pretty generally, and
it may be allowed to be flat or be
turned up at the side or in front, or
bent down over the brow. The new
models include very few picture& CHATS

In the last 80 years the speed OF
ocean steamers has been increased
from eight and one-half to % and one
half knots an lour. Ships have been
more than trebled in length, about
doubled in breadth, and increased ten
fold in displacement. The number of
passengers carried by steamship has
been increased from 100 to nearly
1000. The engine power has been
made 40 times as great, while the rate
of coal consumption per horse power

The discovery of two Belgian chem
lists, Hobo and Lagrange, whereby
iron may be brought to white heat
by dipping it in water, is attracting
much attention in Europe. A metal
vessel is partly filed with wafer and
connected up to q source of electricity
supply giving 80 amperes of current.
The other pole is attached to the iron
rod provided with an insulated handle.
The water offers great resistance to
the passage Of current through the
combination, very high electrical
potential being thus generated in tie
neighborhood of the iron rod, where
by the water is rapidly decomposed,

Cherokee. He is the highest type not
only of the five tribes, but also of the
North American aborigine. He is the
only one that can boast of written
language. He has had schools, acade-
mics and seminaries, and higher
percentage of education than some OF
the States. All the ups and downs OF
the five tribes, and their melancholy
experience with self-government have
been shared by him. The Cherokee
strip, occupying the northeastern por-
ton of the Territory, comprises the eH-
tensive area of five million acres,
which are of the most fertile soil in
the great Southwest. The white man
has penetrated into the district, has
fixed his foot there, has smothered his
conscience aud his decency so far as
to marry the Cherokee woman only
that he may become the part owner
of the Cherokee land. From the Chero-

Women "Win,, Their Brains.


Women have brains and they have
goved it. They have demonstrated
nat they are in commendable, ap-
breciative working order. As sub
Stance they have upheld theory.
But this is not all. Once when men
were weighing brains-that is, of
course, dead mems brains-and were
expressing congratulatory "Oh's" aud
3ssAh's" with the dignity of masculine
superiority, the women dug up the
brain of q poor old washerwoman, aud
10! it weighed the same as Daniel

theory m regard TO weight in it's rel&-

queath their brains to colleges that
are making brain collections. Cornell

NEW PHASE OF COLD MINING.
Dredging the Precious Ore From the Sea
at Cape Nome.

Dredging the Precious Ore From the Sea
at Cape. Nome.
Our government is granting all
rights to all applicants to dredge for
gold in the sea off Cape Nome Of
fetal authorization is necessary be-
cause it is illegal to carry on any en-
terprise within the three-mile limit
that may interfere with navigation, and
dredging could not be permitted till it
was certain that the work would not
be injurious to shipping interests.
A number of companies and ipdi-
viduals are preparing to engage in this
enterprise, which is new phase oi
gold mining and the result of the
novel conditions under which gold is
found in the Cape Nome region. Min
ing was successfully carried OH last
year a ong the beach sands for dis
tance of thirty miles. The gold came
originally from the quartz veins in the
( limestone and mica-schist mountains
from four to five miles inland. In the
course of many thousands OF years OF
.denudation great deal of this gold
bearing quartz has been broken away
and carried gradua ly by water agency
down the gentle but continuous slope
from the mountains to the sea. Much
OF the quartz, in the form of coarse
graYels and boulders, has lodged IN
the tundra that interyeues between
the mountains and the beach and il

sary crushing machinery has not yet

i obtained by the ordinary lances
of placer mining.
1t was to be expected under
exactly similar conditionss e gold
would be found under the ia for a
considerable distance from tile shore
and last years Investigations proved
that this was the case. Dredging is
practical because the sea is shallow
for considerable distance from the
beach and, in fact, the larger vessels
cannot approach the shore, but are
obliged to discharge their cargSes by
means of boats and lighters The
nearest harbors for ocean vessels are
Port Clarence, sixty miles northwest
of Nome City and GoloAin bay, the
same distance east, and there is talk
of connecting both these ports with
Nome City by rail. Dredging, there
fore, will not interfere with navigation
along the gold coast, and there is
every prospect that rich harvest will
be reaped from under the waters
