SUMMER MODES AND FABRICS.
THEY ARE FEMININE AND FR1LLY.

It is hardly possible to imagine any
thing in dress more exquisitely elaborate
and beautiful to look upon than the
display of wraps and gowns, and thin
white gowns in particular, offered for
our inspection this season. Barring the
fault of excessive decoration and con-
sequent expense, the new fashions are
almost, if not quite, perfection.
Both in outline and detail they are
charming in every sense of the word, and
certainly they leave nothing to be de-
sired in the way of variety. Yet, with
the persistence of the Evil One himself,
come periodically the usual distributing,
contradictory rumors which leave doubt
as to any settled condition of modes.
THE SKIRT.
Hardly have we become convinced
that the close-fitting skirt is the real
thing, the one fashion on which we can
rely, then the report of its downfall
swoops down on us to destroy the effects
of earlier assurances on the subject. But
we need not heed this very much just at
present, as the skirt full around the
hips is the one fashion which will not be
accepted with alacrity. Women are too
we'll satisfied with the present style in
skirts to discard it in hurry. The
habit back skirt was the prevailing one
in all the early importations, and that
means at least its use for one season.
PLATED AND GATHERED SKIRTS.
The fashion makers who have been
striving for the change to plated and
gathered skirts, and have been making
every effort to bring it about for some
time past, have not accomplished very
decided results. Still the models,
gathered and plated about the hips, are
in evidence among the latest importa-
tons.
The plaits are stitched down several
inches by way of compromise, but al!
the same the skirt lacks the grace and
generous flare of the other models so
much admired. In very thin, gauzy
fabrics the shirred skirts are charming;
as the shirring fits the hips, and the
style is so well suited to the material,
but the beauty of this style of skirt
depends very much on the cut as well,
and there must be some flare to give 1t
grace of line.

CARE OF YOUNG STOCK.
Plenty of Exercise Necessary to
Keep Them Growing.

ak1chky Oh ENCFClBe NeCc8aATy TO
Keep Them Growing.
The care includes the manner Of feed
ing trotighs, feed racks, curing Of the
hay and gathering of the crops, says a
stock raiser in Kansas Farmer. In the
manner Of feeding growing stock it is
very essential to have the feed in the
best condition. L mean by that it
should be clean and free from mold
and clean utensils to feed from and in.
The feed should be fresh and as clean
as possible from dirt. Being regular in
time OF feeding is an important point.
Another thing Is the amount fed each
time.
had great deal rather feed too lit,
tie than too much. This is true in
young growing stock. 1t is very neces-
sary that they are kept hungry and ac-i
tive, because 1t is through vital power
that they digest and assimilate the
food given them, and unless they are.
allowed to become hungry between
feeding times they will lay around toe
much to develop their muscles and vi
tai organs. So my plan is to feed all
they will eat clean twice a day and
then have q yard big enough that they
can exercise and play in. Did you ever
think how much good play does an AMI
NAL? am sure you all have noticed
that gil cur young animals play a great
deal Il they are doing well.

Created a Law Suit.
Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, Dec. lS.-Suit has been
brought to Judge Fitsgerald7s court
by Maj B. w. Millsaps, guardian of
Caro- Colbert. to test the validity OF
OF Governor Longino's action In
calling in the 100000 issue Of FIVE
per cent bonds, the greater portion
OF which was paid on the lst of July,
1901. About $l7, 500 of the issue is
outstanding and the plaintiff sues to
recover interest, the contention
being that the governor had no au-
thority to call in the bonds without
n Legislative appropriation for their
payment. In view of the supreme
court declaring that the auditor has
no power to issue q warrant on the
state treasury without specific ap-
preparation therefor, the case is
gwen added interest.

of District Attorney Graves VS.. Ellis

the Legislature has no right to estab-

Helena, Mont, Aug. 27.-John RAFT, a
farmer known as Jack the Ripper who
lives on Rock creek, eighteen miles south
of Lewiston, took fearful revenge upon
George Fredericks and Jacob STANCE,
neighbors, who were .endeavoring to
handle him in white cap style. He shot
and instantly killed one and mortally
wounded the other. He gave himself up,
asserting self defense.
Reit says the men came to his ranch.
pulled him out of bed and suggested tar
and feathers after beating him. He
managed to reach his gun and shot Fred
ericks dead and fatally wounded STANCE
Then he went to Lewiston and gave
himself up.
The coroner's jury exonerated him from
killing Fredericks, but as Stange was shot
in the back, Reit is being held for trial.
