The SKIRT has bands Of the lace laid or
six inches apart. from the waist down to
the hem, the spaces gradually growing
wider. There is not a particle of color,
except in the holly-colored chou, which
little Nell will wear upon her yoke. Upon

holly-colored choux; and in her hair there
will be a bow of the same bright holly

Mother complains that 1t is hard to dress
Little Nell well because the fashions are
all either too young or too old for her, but
I am sure that. with the bolero jacket,
made just as an arm jacket and with the
trimmed round waists there will be no
such objection this season. Little Nell
wears in the street a long cloak with two
small capes over the shoulders. 1t Is
straight front and back. Her hat is a large
one with hoppy brim. like the grown-up
hats.
The very newest waists for little girls are
nero puffs of material. fastening In the
back. Over the shoulders are straps of
ribbon or of the goods, while a CAMP
forms the upper part Of he waist. This
is a style that number in years many
more than Little Nell's birthday candies
because of its becomingness and be-
cause it is SO simple to make. The skirts
of little girls are to be cut something like
ladies' pedestrian skirts with the flare
around the feet. so that they set opt. with
out being so very short. after all.
The extremely short skirt for the girl Of

does not wholly hide her stockings. does
not fully display them.
Different Shades of One Color

It is for better, for worse, and be prepared
for anything. Really you cannot tell until
you see the whole suit how you are going
to look. whether bizarre OF conventional
chic or like an optical delusion.
The wearing of black is a fad which is to
be taken w by the woman of fashion. There
are more materials produced in black to-day
than in all the other tones combined, the
dealers say. and the number Of black gowns
one can construct without repeating ones
self is more than legion.
A beautifully artistic method Of making
a gown permits of the wearing of different
yokes. Miss Jeanne Langtry, lovely daugh-

! Jets are to be much worn. but they must
be hand applied. They are Of good quality

Idaho is well spoken of all over
the United States. The Engineer
ing and Mining Journal, a very con-
sentative paper, is good enough to
say: "Idaho seems likely to have
a boom this year. The Thunder
Mountain district is drawing es-
pecial interest just now, and numer-
GUS prospectors are on their way to
the way to the region, although it
is still early in the season for that
mountain country. From all ac-
counts SO far received the new dis
trict seems to be worth attention.
though the accounts given out are
doubtless as full of exaggerations
as is generally the case with new
country. Outside of this special
boom, the state is attracting many
people this spring, and matters
promise well both for its mineral
and agricultural resources. There
is a prospect also that some rail-
road building will be done in the
state this year, to the great benefit
of several districts, the develop
ment of which is now delayed by
lack of transportation

Thunder Mountain Visitors.

Several parties have arrived here
from Thunder Mountain during
the past week, but owing to the de-
mand made upon our space by the
publication Of the county commits.
sioners' proceedings, we can only
give brief summary OF several
interviews with the gentlemen.
They are all unanimous in express
ing the opinion that Thunder
Mountain is the greatest and rich
est gold camp ever discovered. 1t
is impossible to state just what is
the result OF the winters develop
ment, but there have been any
where from 1900 to 1000 locations
made since fall and ten-foot holes
sunk in the known mineral belt,
many Of which have disclosed ore
just as good and of the same
general character as the ore ON the
Dewey properties.
A remarkable instance was cited
Of finding ore in claims located at
random which, if true, shows what
wonderful camp it is. Seventeen
claims had been located, on each OF
which the usual ten-foot hole re-
quired by law had been sunk
Samples from 16 of these holes
gave gold values which assayed,
while two of them were very rich
in gold. Provisions are still very
scarce, and they each advise pros
pectors to take in plenty of grub
and take no chances Prospectors
are going in every day and there
are 300 or 400 men now in the
camp. Several have already made
good locations and are doing what
they can under Instantaneous
circumstances to open them up
without powder, or even necessary
tools. The Thunder Mountain
region for 10 or IS miles seems to
be covered with porphyritic over
flow, and the veins are all Of a
blanket nature. Pockets and
streaks of rich gold ore are found,
but there is general consensus of
opinion that the whole will resolve
itself at the final outcome into the
ordinary free-milling propositions.
There is at present no immediate
chance for intelligent prospecting
ON account of snow in the imme-
date vicinity of Thunder Noun
tain, and prospectors are conse-
quently turning their attention to
the country towards Salmon river,
where the snow is already gone,
and many finds of great promise
are already reported. The gold
values, however, seem to be better
the nearer they are to Thunder
Mountain.

A GROWING STATE

For the first three months of
last year the fees paid to secretary
OF state for filing articles of incor-
poration amounted to $685. so, a
neat increase over the previous
year.
The fees for the same service for
the first three months of this year
amounted to S1561.65, or nearly
three times what it was one year
ago.
The forming of new corporations
means the development of Idaho's
mineral wealth and digging of
irrigating canals and opening up to
cultivation immense areas of rich
valley lands which have heretofore
been non-productivc. The increase
in corporations is remarkable, but
it is no less so than the growth in
development that may be found in
every county in the state.

THE BOOM IS ON.

For many long and weary years
the older residents OF the state OF
Idaho have been looking forward
to the time when the state should
have boom similar to that ex-
perienced by other states of the
great west. That day is here.
The boom is on. In every line of
business, in every department of
industry, Idaho is the Mecca to
which all eyes are turned. Money
for investment in any form of
enterprise can be secured without
effort if the scene of operation is in
the state of Idaho. Unlimited
capital is being invested in our
mines and forests, in irrigation
projects. fruit growing and stock
raising; people from the east are
paying prices for our. farm lands
which exceed the values ever ex-
pected by the original locaters OF
public domain: millions Of money
are going into mining enterprises
all over the state; other millions
are being put into the great forests
of the northern counties, and the
only thing now lacking to give the
state such an impetus as will
double its population in the next
two years is the solution Of the
difficulties between rival railroad
corporations which has heretofore
prevented the development of this
great Clearwater country on nat
ural lines OF easy transportation to
the seaboard for its products Of
fields, farms and mines.
The great Clearwater country
alone is not participating in the
phenomenal growth which other
parts -of the state are undergoing.
Here in the heart OF the state il
the finest aud largest body OF
agricultural land in the west, with
an enormous tributary mountain
GUS country scanned with rich veins
of the precious metals, a veritable
cAOACnouSS Va HdUuIdl WcdlUE, all
awaiting the arrival of transporta-
ton facilities to afford room for a
dense population and to give en-
ployment to a vast army OF work
ers in the mines and forests and
associated forms of industry. But
while we are not participating in
the boom to any great extent we
still have the satisfaction of know
ing that the great Clearwater basin
is all here and that it is not likely
to run away; and when the rail-
road corporations adjust their petty
differences and do their long me-
elected duty toward this section,
then we shall have our own boom,
regardless of whether the rest of
the state participates or not. Our
day may be deferred, but it is
coming, and cannot much longer
be delayed.
