for Mayor had 600 majority.
The average Republican paper
has tough job in upholding the
law of Massachusetts, which dis
franchises the illiterate voters and
criticising the law of Maryland
which does the Same thing. The
objection to the Maryland law is
that it disfranchises too many me-
groes.

ARE TRYING MANY TRAVEL
PLANS TO REACH HONOLULU

All in all, it is a cosy little place. and
quite worthy of the name Of home,
which Mr.. and Mrs. Reiners apply TO it.
Starting from Denver in June, Mr..
and Mrs. ReinerS went first to Colo
RADIO Springs; UP Ute Pass to Cripple
Creek, and from thence over the dam
gerous switchback road on the way
TO Canyon City. The switchback road
is such difficult one to travel. and is
so dangerous that farmers in the
vicinity travel fifteen miles out of their
way and pay q toll of $50 rather than
undertake to pass over it. On the road
TO Silver Cliff they saw a freighter
with six horses, who rode the wheel
horse, drove with jerk line and han
Gled his six with marvellous skill. From
Salida, NIr. and Mrs. Reiners followed
the Rio Grande road to Leadville;
crossed over Tennessee Pass and Bat
tie Mountain, stopped at Wolcottr and
from there followed the stage line that
goes from Steamboat Springs to Yam
pa, stopping at the latter point.
Oak creek, fifteen miles from Yam
pa, an oldtime Ute trail, was the next
camping ground. 1t is within the for
est reserve and abounds with deer,
timber wolves and prairie chickens. In
this connection, speaking of the COM
plant which the ranchmen make
against the tourists for the destruction
of the deer, MIR. Reiners said:
Looking at this question from an
unprejudiced standpoint, 1 think the
ranchmen are far more TO blame for
the destruction of the deer than the
tourists. The ranchmen have deer at
all times of the year, and the sex of
the deer cuts little figure. One man
told us up there that he had contract
ed with a Tanchman to furnish him
deer sufficient to last him and his men
all winter at $3.50 per head. While
staying at Oak creek I saw from ten
To alrfrl o.
from ten TO fifteen in each party, and
not one Of them got a deer, while the
ranchmen, knowing the haunts Of the
deer and his habits, can get one when
ever he pleases.'
After leaving Yampa, Mr. and Mrs.
Reiners also visited several of the large
cattle ranches, including the keystone
ranch, where President Roosevelt visit
ed last summer and saw the round
ups of the cattle of the keystone and
Kay ranches.
Over one stretch of road. known as
the desert of bad lands" they were
unable for ninety miles to buy pound
of hay with which to feed their horses.
In the eighty-two miles traversed be-
fore reaching Green river, there were
but five watering places. From Green
river they went to Vernal, from Vernal
to Heber City, passing over what Is
known as Niger Heaven" This is a
frightfully rough road, almost in steps,
which in places are from twelve to
twenty inches in height, on each side
of the mountain. The distance was
twenty-five miles, and there was no
water to be obtained from start to
finish.
From Heber Mr.. and Mrs. Reiners
went to Salt Lake, where they have
been for a week, and from there they
will proceed to California, going by
way of st. George. They are anxious
to take the northern route and go over
the Sierras, but were a trihe fearful
that they would not be able to accom-
plish the trip so late in the season.

that the beginning of the end in the May

in progress

situation in a less roseate light, and
from the dizzy heights of happiness to

Gently they have descended to the COM
monplace existence which comes with a
strained pocketbook and a peep ahead

! The couple live in a house on the bluff
in this city, and they have been passing
most of the time on the veranda of the
Grand hotel. Miss Yohe does not relish
the GOODNESS of the residents. and a few
nights ago she caused disturbance by
declaring that the people here were ut
terly devoid of hospitality. and that the
world looked dull to her just then. She
proceeded in her anger to dance to the
music of the band, and finally became
so boisterous that she was requested to
desst.
Major Strong received rebuff from her
when he sought to quiet her, and the
incident closed with a request from the
mana cement of the hotel to Strong and
his companion to make themselves stran-
gers to the hotel in future.
Despite the fact that the couple have
all sorts of equipages and five different
costumes for their rickshaw men, it is an
open secret that there have been several
quarrels arising from the fact that

July of this year she eloped with Cap

detectives before they finally secured
passage on July 16 for Yokohama from
san Francisco.
Pinkertons were on the tran OF the
two and they would have arrested Strong

HRILLS OF FASHION.
Fa-.% =. Materials for Costumes and
Wraps for the Current
Season.

Shaggy felts aad silky beavers are
undoubtedly the favorite autumn hat
materials.
Black velvet applique is in evidence
at all the shops. and there are, too
beautiful velvet appliques of softly
shaded colors which promise stunning
effects upon gowns in white or soft
pastel tints, says the New York Sun.
Many cloth and wool costumes have
their edges cut in square tabs, which
are about an inch apart. The tabs are
stitched down on an under band of
contrasting color in silk, often dotted
in black, steel or silver. The effect is
easily obtained by an ordinary dress
maker, yet is decidedly modish.
White net dotted all over with tiny
jet spots and with a border of black
lace applied on the white ground and
heavily encrusted with Jet is among
the most exquisite of the new robe
materials.
Silver tissue is being much used as
background for the fine laces and
embroideries of the season.
Partisan makers are turning out pic
turesque ermine-bordered tippets.
large collars and huge muffs of
velvet.
The silk Bruges lace is net only used
in its creamy tint, but is also colored
to correspond with the material to
which it is applied, and on certain i'm
ported models it appears in soft tints,
shading from palest cream to deep
orange. In some instances silver
threads are woven through the lace.
