FINERY FOR THE SEASON.
Dressy Details of Gowns for Summer
Wear-Soft Textures Will BE

A style of gown in favor just now
consists of silk coat made after
the Louis XIV. style, worn with an
elaborate skirt, made of some thin
material, says a fashion exchange.
Pale blue and black are having a
great Juror in Paris. There is really
nothing prettier or daintier than pale
blue. There is perfect rage for
pale blue straw and tulle hats, all
pale blue excepting touch of black
velvet and a rhinestone ornament.
For petticoat to wear during the
summer there is probably nothing
cooler than thin silk or light weight
alpaca, these, of course, where serv-
ice as well as GOODNESS is desired.
Very pretty wash ones are made OF
fine madras and mercerized linen, In
fresh, delicate colors.
Chiffon is used in many of the CIR

full folds on taffeta foundation;
the latter does not extend further
than the knot in front. then the two
chiffon ends fall below the knees and
are finished with silk fringe or tas.

Water systen, for Tonnpah.

Bonanza; Steps are to be taken i'm
mediately to bring water into Tonapah
for domestic purposes and protection
against fire. To this end q pipe line
will be laid from a point in Ralston
Valley near Rye Patch, about twelve
miles northeast of town. At this
point there is an underground lake or
channel. the presence of which is in
dicated by rank growth of willows,
greasewood and rye grass on the sur
face, and by the finding of water in
abundance at the depth of few feet
The water will have to be pumped to
an elevation of about seven hundred
feet, where a reservoir will be con-
structed, and from which the water
will flow into town and have sufficient
pressure to be effective in case of fire.

BOYS STOLE HIS BEER.
Theft Followed by "a Fight and Sew
ernI Arrests.

Wash, Sam and Fred Golden, father
and sons, were committed to Jail yes
terday morning by Magistrate Ma
thans, on warrants charging assault
and battery and larceny. Joe jenkins.
a Sackville storekeeper, is the prosecu-
tor. All of the parties are negroes and
reside in that settlement.
1t is claimed that several days ago
the Golden boys stole two bottles of
beer from Jenkins and made their es-
cape. He caught them later and used
a strap with telling effect. Jenkins
says that he called on Wash Golden
and told him what he had done and
what had prompted the act. According
to Jenkins the old man announced that
he was perfectly satisfied.
The storekeeper claims that on
Wednesday afternoon Wash filled up
on mean whisky and went to his store.
He wanted satisfaction for the whip
ping that had been administered to his
hopefuls, and when Jenkins was not
sault both man and wife. Jenkins says
that he was sober, and did not have
much trouble in pummeling Golden.
Nursing a black eye, Golden went be-
fore Justice Bevans and had warrants
issued for the arrest of jenkins and
wife. There were four in all, and Jen-
kins gave bond. He then went before
Judge Nathans and charged the boys
with the theft of the beer, and the old
man with committing the assault.
