Making over a shabby skirt.

A skirt that has grown shabby at
the hem could be made to do active
service again by cutting it ten inches
shorter and then sewing on founce
Of the same material, or velveteen il
preferred. This style of skirt is likely
to increase in popularity and remain
fashionable throughout the spring
season. The upper part of the skirt
consists of four pieces-a front, side
piece each side and seamless box
plated back.
The deep founce is sewed on and has
to be cut out on the circle. The top
of the founce is not gathered, but
must be machine stitched to the edge
of the skirt.
In this way the founce forms itself
into undulating curves which give ele-
gance to the movements of any sort OF
figure.
Ii the skirt is to be made of new ma
terial, five yards of ordinary double
width woolen material will be suffi-
cient for full size skirt, and in order
to be effective the center of back must
measure three inches longer than the
front.-Washington Star

paper baskets, ETC., went flying in the
air and many members joined the pages
in wild yells, This preciptate action
on the part of the house brought grief
TO great many.
The house had absolutely completed
all the business that was before it. and
no new business was ready unless it
was ordered from the table, but the
senate was in session with good many
senate bills under consideration so If
the house had taken recess for half
an hour instead of adjourning, there
would have been considerable business
sent over from the senate. The adj
lournment killed, at one fell swoop,
every senate bill pending in that body
While this was going on the senate
had decided to call the roll, and as each
senator's name was called allow him to
take up one bill and endeavor to pass
It. After the house had adjourned
there was no use of calling up anything
but pending house bills, and the SEN
ate, indignant at the action of the
mouse, did not seem to care whether
any house measures were passed or not.
The roll Of the senate had been about
half called when the house adjourned,
and from that time bedlam reigned SUI
pfeme. When a senator's name was
called and he arose to name his bill, he
was bombarded with wads of paper
books, waste paper baskets, and even
cnspldors, so that sometimes it was five
minutes before he could name his bill
The roll call that followed was amid
noise and confusion, the air being liter
ally filled with flying sheets and print
ed bills and other missiles. Several ef-
forts We're made to adjourn before the
names of all the senators had been
called, but they were voted down. SEN
minutes to -, actual time, but he had
no bill to offer, and then the senate i'm
mediately adjourned. Taken as a
whole, it was the most boisterous night
ever seen in Minnesota legislature.
The meeting of the legislature yes
terday was, as usual, only a perfume
tory affair. All bills must be enrolled
and signed by the officers of both
houses before the legislature adiourns,

killed by speeches and offering of reso-
lutions, to enable the enrolling clerks
to finish their work. In the senate an
effort was made to pass the park me-
mortal to congress, asking for a nation
al park in the Cass lake region, but the
Duluth senator's were too strong and
killed it.
In the house the exciting episode was
an effort to expunge from the records
the resolution censuring Representa-
tiyes jacobson and Washburn for ac
cusing members of corruption in con-
nection with the gross earnings bill.
This was opposed by representative
Laybourn of Duluth, who had offered
the resolution, and he won, so that the
resolution stands on the journal The
speaker was thanked by resolution, and
the newspapers also, and at 1870 an
adjournment sine die was taken.

TRADE REVIEW.
A Better Tone Is shown in Most
Lines for the Week just
Ending.

New York, April 15.-R. 6. Dun's Weekly
Review of Trade says: the tone of gen.
eral business has been better this week.
Marked activity in the distribution of mer-
chandise is reflected in the gains of 45.9 per
cent. in bank clearings at New York, COM
pared with 1900 and 20.S per cent over 1899.
with gains of 1S-5 and 10S for the same
periods at leading cities outside New York.
Even the textile markets show pronounced
gain. Activity in the metals division has
taken pig iron production to near record
hgures, and some dealers do not see how
production of partly finished forms this
year Is to be made to meet the demand
The government report of the condition of
wheat on April ! is the surest possible
basis upon which expectation of continued
commercial prosperity could be founded
Str1ngency OF money is local in New York
and does not alter reports from most of the
larger cities of favorable conditions in col-
iectlons. Railroad earnings in March were
IA per cent larger than last year, and 80
per cent. over 1899, according to practically
complete returns Speculation has been
unusually heavy In foodstuffs, the local
market averaging over 1000, 900 bushels of
wheat osaily. Prices receded sharply from
the top point of two weeks ago, wheat los
Ing about cents for spot. Realizing sales
We're accelerated by expectation of a high
percentage of winter wheat condition in
the official report
Failures for the week numbered 2OS in
the United States, against 1913 last year, and
"A in Canada, against II last year.
Bradstreet's says: Crop and trade ad-
vices alike continue favorable. The seat of
geatest strength is in the iron and steel
trade, While textiles evince the most ir-
regularity. Despite the unquestiona bly,
quieter tone of export trade in manufac-
lures it is to be noted that Americans are
still reaping some advantages from their
superiority in certain lines of iron and
steel. Retail trade has been helped by
better weather in most sections, and, while
spring jobbing is smaller at several mar
kets improved retail trade conditions are
expected to help recorder business. North
western trade advices are quite cheerful
and large numbers of buyers are in the
towns On the Pacific coast Alaskan trade
is active and general trade from nearby
points is good. At the east trade is better
at retail, while Wholesale lines are auiet.''

decided Saturday Former Senator

court Saturday handed down a de-
cision dismissing the suit brought

diction to interfere. The horses and
mules, the court said, were bought

day, April 26, as Arbor and Bird Day.
His proclamation is as follows:
ssThe legislature, with the object of

portance of preserving the harmless
birds that make Minnesota their home

of said day to the planting of forest
trees and shrubs, to the end that our
home and public grounds may be made
more pleasant and attractive. Let the
object and spirit of the day be met
