Revival of the Thick White

I see wells everywhere in fetching de-

thick white veil in Brussels net. SO use

other plain hats. The chiffon veil. which

and the veil dotted in clusters, are
shown in great numbers.
There Is a tendency toward covering
the face with the veil only over the lips,
leaving the chin almost bare. as was
quite proper some years ago. More pop
ular. however, is the Embellishments
custom of placing her veil full on the
brim of her hat. and letting 1t cOIne neat

1t was suggested some little time back
that a syndicate should be formed to
buy Partisan models, of dresses destined
to be copied in America. This truly
Western idea, happily for the fashion,

fallen through. Such a project would
certainly have resulted in the death Of
individuality as far as dress was con-
cerned. and really. since 1t has met with
no response. appears too absurd ever to

The shops, however. evidently 10 not
think so; for most of the dresses they
are preparing in serge. homeSpun and
kindred stuffs are made to touch the
ground. and accompany short bolerO
jackets over blouses. generally with
wide touchdown collars. Many of the
skirts are corded or tucked, and show 4
deep flOunce at the hem. A loose jacket
or cape is quite essential. and the jack
cts have nearly all sacque backs. with
rundown collars and tight sleeves, and
the clOaks and capeS are double breast
ed. the former often reaching to the feet.
The flannel dresses are quite pretty.
Those with blue. pink or black stripes
have accompanying jackets Of the Ches-
terrified or bolero shape. A very good
trade is being done in alpaca.
Panama Hats Are Worn by
All Who Can Afford Them.
Panama hats are the height Of the
fashion for those who can afford TO pay
for them. They are so pliable that they

damaging the shape, a narrow band OF
black ribbon being the only trimming.

soft materials. sometimes jetted and

plumes. A picture hat In burnt straw

the old grannie shape, trimmed with two
very large black plumes and narrow

sort Of enlarged sailor. trimmed with
fancy handkerchiefs and quilts, which
proves singularly useful.
Pretty Linens and COttOns
Are in Great Demand.
Rarely has the demand been so extern

his summer. The materials have been
manufactured in the prettiest designs
and colors. Some examples quite reseIn-

Two Quite New Cloak Models Of
Taffeta and Champagne.
Here is q description Of two quite new
models of smart cloaks. One is of hin
ing black t~affeta, made half fitting and
unlined. From the yoke the material is
tucked at regular intervals and firmly
stitched. Over the shoulders are three
tiny capes cut on the cross, stitched
with three rows Of stitching. The long
pagoda sleeves do not quite reach the
wrist, and reveal the sleeves of the
blouse beneath. From the neck 10 the
lower hem of the coat are a series of
Vandyke points cut out of black velvet,
each point being deity stitched with
white silk and caught with a button of
the finest wrought dull silver, studded
with t~urquoises. The other coat Is built
of deep creamy-yellow cloth Of the color
known here as champagne. 1t has no
yoke, but Is stitched in small plaits
about two inches apart, from the neck
band to about a foot from the lower
edge, where the material falls loosely
and soft. 1t closes high up on the left
shoulder, and Is fastened at the side by
a series Of small tabs cut into the ma
terial itself and firmly stitched.

from the shoulder to the hem under the
tabs, but escapes from their hold O

unequal ends. The sleeves are pagOda-
shaped, and are cut at the elbow, where
they are deliberately stitched.
Long Skirts Are Being
Prepared in the Shops.
Those who are rushing away from one
pleasure resort to other fashionable
gatherings will find ample opportunities
for displaying smart toilets, long. sweep

SAD ACCIDENT.

Mrs. John Groom, Mrs. Geo
Terry and her two children en-
deavored to cross Dry Creek in
lower end of Bruneau Valley, last
Thursday, Feb 81. The creek had
raised during the day. but the
women were unaware of its depth.
In crossing one of the horses be-
came strangled, thus placing the
wagon in the power of the stream,
and causing the upset of wagon,
throwing them all out. Mrs. Terry
had about succeeded in reaching
the bank of the creek with her chill
dren, when large floating willow
struck her, causing the hold on her
eldest child to be broken and the
little fellow floated off in the angry
waters of the stream, and was
drowned. The ladies being alone
and three miles from nearest neigh
bors, it was considerable time be-
fore assistance reached them. but
their screams were heard by Mr..
Frank Black, who swan his horse
across Bruneau river, but too late
to rescue the child's body. For
four days a searching party was
unable to find the body ofthe child,
and after the fourth night Mr.. Terry
arose from his bed at 2 o'clock in
the morning and went to the creek
in search of the child, being sue
cessful in finding it about day
light, one-quarter mile below where
the accident occurred. The youngest
child also become strangled from
water and it was three hours be-
fore it was brought to, at times be-
ing doubtful if its life could be
saved.
The funeral services were held
on Monday the 25th, being buried
in the Robertson cemetery. The
and father extended their
thanks to all for the assistance
rendered them in their sad bereave-
ment.

James McAtee Killed at Rocky
Bar by Falling Snowshed.

Thursday evening John Rowe
Davey arrived in this place bring
ing the startling news that James
McAtee was accidentally killed al
the Bar about l o'clock on Wednes.
day, February 20, 1901.
Mr.. McAtee and Oscar Schraft
have for several years held lease
OF the Vishnu mining ground and
quartz mill. A snowshed covered
the car-track leading from the tun-
mel to the mill. Returning to work
from their noon meal, along the
shed they discovered that the
stringers at a certain point were
bent and likely to give way from
the great weight of snow piled M
on the tagging above. They at.
tempted to repair this particular
weakness in the shed-Mr. McAtee
placing his shoulder under the
scantling and endeaving to raise it
while Mr.. Schraft was to place an
other timber under it. Just then
the frail support gave way precipi-
tating probably ton of snow upon
these hardy sons Of toll. Mr.. Schraft
was more fortunate than his COM
panion and soon extricated himself
from the debris and Immediately
commenced to uncover Mr. McAtee
with all his might, at the same time
calling Justify for help. Young
Davey, being nearby, responded to
his call and they soon uncovered
Mr.. McAtee's body, which was al
most in a standing posture, but, sad
to relate, life was gone and poor,
big. hearted, industrious Jim Nc
Atee's labors were ended, and a
then happy wife and three innocent
little children at home fondly an
ticipating his return at the usual
supper hour. Picture the sorrow
and anguish Of the poor wife upon
being informed, as gently as posi-
BILE, of her great loss, for it can not
be expressed in words.
The sudden death of Mr.. McAtee
cast a gloom over the good old town
of Rocky Bar, because he was
good citizen, a kind husband, an
indulgent father and a man highly
respected by all acquaintance.
He was buried on the following
Friday, almost the entire people of
the camp attending the funeral.
We are told that the deceased
has brother residing at Park City,
Utah. He was brother-in.law of
the wife of ex-sheriff James O'Neill
of this place and Miss Katie Don
nelly of Rocky Bar.
To his grief-stricken widow and
little children, and all relatives, the

lence.
