Real Collie RS Dress.

The golfer who goes in for the game
seldom wears knicl1erbockers. He
never puts on a golfng stock, and he
dresses generally in neglige fannels.
The trousers are turned up at the bot
tom, and the coat is an ordinary sim
gle-breasted flannel jacket. Either 4
sweater OF a madras shirt is proper.
Knickerbockers are not absolutely
tabooed, but they have been, so to
speak, run into the ground, and the
knlckerbocker golf player is more OF
less an object Of ridicule for those
who love the game for the games
sake. However, you may suit your
own ideas.-London Fashion.

set for trial on Tuesday, among
which We're the Mexican rape case,
the Phye liquor case and the
burglary case.
The first two of above cases were
decided in favor of the defendants.
The defendants in the whiskey
case escaped through mere tech
nicality; the information failed to
state IN what year \. ID. the
offences were committed The
evidence WIS ample and concu.
sive.
The case against $. /. AMb,er
for forgery, which was tried before
Justice Lewis and sent up to the
district court failed To receive the
attention Of the prosecuting a;tur
ney and ms n consequence no infor-
nation was filed against Mr.. Am.
bier and hence nothing was done
in the premises. Ii Will be re-
memhered some over 500 was
paid by the county for going to
Denver after the accused Mt the
time of the preliminary hearing.
The three Mexicans who were
tried Thursday for breaking into
Gibbs a Abrams store were con.

after finding the stolen goods, as
they say, took them home and
there secreted them.
The law requires those who
find things, not their own, To make
diligent effort to find the owner.
This the Mexicans not only failed
to d" bnt secretly and clandes
timely sought to convert them 20

VIC Mahoxany Tree.

Mahogany hunters in Central and
South America are men requiring much
skill and experience, and in some dis
tricts the revenues depend largely up
on the success of their endeavors. Ma
hogany trees do not grow in groups,
but are scattered and concealed in
thickets. It takes two men an entire
dav to fell a tree. On account of the
thick, thorny growth about the base OF
the tree, it is the custom to build a
scaffold around it, and to cut the trunk
at height Of ten or fifteen feet from
the ground. By this wastefu1 method
Il is said the best part Of the tres is
lost. Freed from branches, the trunk
i hauled by oxen to the nerast river,
where RATS are made.-Youth's Com
