glance from under her long lashes that
rendered the Captain more fain than
ever to lift the burden Of Gordon Hall
from the shoulders of its fair owner.
His men had formed in the avenue
and there was no excuse for a longer
delay, so the Captain backed linger-

Jingle, and the handsome head barred
in the cleaning. With deliberate ease
he mounted, and away down the ave

the blue brocade traiIed over the

to use no unseemly haste. but waited

flung about his neck, and the sweet

LEEVES have so much to
do with the making or
marring of an otherwise
fashionable and attractive
gown that much thought
The Ely miner. [volume] (Ely, Minn.) 1895-1986, 1902-11-14

graceful, so it is we'll to remember
that it is one thing to lead a horse
to water and another TO make him
drink. After the pretty skirt models
of to-day nothing ugly or ungraceful
will be accepted without a protest.
The yoke skirt is one of the most
popular models, the yoke fitting the
hips as closely and carefully as pos
sible. But fashion is varied enough
to suit every fancy and the accordion
plated skirt has blossomed out again
to add another mode to the list.
You see shirrings, cordings, plait-
ings and tucks galore in the thin
fabrics; but an accordion plated skirt
in clumsy wool materials is novelty,
indeed. In strong contrast is the
gored skirt in seven, nine or eleven
cores, with close fitting habit back.
The evening skirts of net show ruff
fes again with fine tucking above the
founces, and SO it goes, every con-
ceivable fancy in skirts being in ac-
tual use.
In general outline they are close
around the hips with a generous flare
around the feet, for this is the form
women have found to be most graceful
and becoming. But the tendency for
change is in the air and change is
bound to come sooner or later.

A New and Attractive Walking Costume

F%IASHION is very much abroad in
New York just at the present
- time, and will be stalking forth
on Fifth avenue daily from now until
after the holiday season has closed.
And, too, fashion is walking much. On
pleasant afternoons Fifth avenue is
veritable bevy of beautiful women.
With fashion afoot walking gowns
are of course in great demand, and
some attractive models are to be seen
every day. Just as a sample of the
general tendency in these gowns l
have had sketched one that seems to
me to be typical. 1t is, of course, a
tailor-made, showing the very latest
shape in skirt, stitchings and strap
pings, combining to hold the plaits of
soft zibeline in close bondage about
the hips, though afterwards they open
out into fulness, the bolero, in it's turn,
being arranged in a manner most be-
coming to slight figures with plait-
ings of satin or velvet to put in APP
pearance between the deep tabs of the
cloth.

ElHE squirrel skin, it seems, has

- but a distinguished past, and

teenth century regarded as a rare and
costly fur, and worn only by great
lords and ladies, and was forbidden by
the paternal legislation of the times

infinite resources of Siberia were af-
forwards discovered, and gradually
these skins became so easily obtain

strong frame placed in close prox-
unity to an iron wheel.
This little disc is then set in motion
by connecting it with the great engine
on the ground floor, and the wheel i'm
mediately turns at the rate of 1000
revolutions to the minute. As it re-
wolves the four diamonds set in the adj
jacent frame are gradually polished
by means of the friction produced on
their surface by the particles of dia-.
mond dust still adhering to the oil
into which they had been previously
dipped. Only one portion of dia-
mond can be polished at once, and con-
sequently when this part has been
dealt with the stone has to be resol-
dered, so that another portion of its
surface may be subjected to the fric-
ton of the wheel.
This process Of resoldering takes
place about 90 times in the case of
every brilliant before it can be con-
sidered to be thoroughly polished, and

upon the visit of agents, arrange
ments were made whereby the Can
adam government helped to pay for
the transportation of the unfortu-
mates and gave them free grants of
land in Manitoba and the surround
ing territory. Vessels especially char
tered, sailed from Bartoun on the
Black sea to Halifax, from whence the
immigrants were carried by rail to
the northwest. In this manner some
$500 of them were settled in COM
munities about Yorkton. There they
seemed to thrive we'll for time and
reports concerning them were to the
effect that at last in a free country
they were prosperous and happy. 1t
was not long, however, before COM
plants began to be heard to the eff
feet that even the laws of Canada were
irksome to them. They rebelled IN

marriage and divorce; and they chated

ship, which provided that each man
take out his own homestead rather
than that all the land might belong to
the community in common. So griev-
Gus did they consider these ills that at
last, in an address to the Ottawa gov
eminent they applied to the nations
of the world for an asylum where they
might live according to the dictates of
their own consciences. The Ottawa
government urged them to be reason
able, as it saw reason, and endeay-
ored to pacify them as concerning
their lands by informing them that
after the homesteads had been ac-
quired according to law the deeds
might be made over to the authorities
of the community; but the Doukhob-
ers held out against this compromise
with evil.
AS a result these grievances have
never been adjusted and are source
of frequent friction. The present

The only real difference in the two
processes of diamond splitting and
diamond cutting lies in the fact that,
whereas the men who split the dia-
monds use pressure on one spot only
(where the flaw occurs), the women
spend their energies in rounding the
whole stone, and carefully cutting off
all angles to be seen on it's surface by
means of the sharp diamonds they
hold in their right hands. Occasionally
they have very large diamonds to cut
which take a great deal of time, but
an ordinary stone weighing about ten
carats would take on an average a
whole days work-a day of eight
hours. When the diamond has been
sufficiently cut and rounded it is then
ready for the third and last process
that of polishing. This work requires
a great deal of time and skill, and is
performed entirely by machinery, a
huge steam engine supplying the mo-
tive power for all the iron discs.
The process consists in giving to the
rounded diamonds what is termed in
technical language their necessary
sides" All diamonds are divided into
two classes, "brilliants" and roses
although the only real difference be-
tween them lies in the number IF
''sides" they individually possess after
having been polished in one of the
many diamond factories.

mar the beauty of gown merely be-
cause there is no choice in the mat
ter of appropriate sleeves, for there
are half dozen or more different
varieties that Dame Fashion allows us
for selection and many variations in
each different mode.
The large sleeves are bound to hold
their own through this season, but the
puffiness is all below the elbow with
decidedly close effect above. Many
of the evening sleeves are elbow
length with frills for finish. These
frills fall long at the back and short
in the inside of the arm.
AS the illustration shows even bet
ter than words can tell of the variety
in sleeves l will devote the words to
something about the styles in skirts.
There are rumors that our skirts are
to be curt on entirely different lines,
dating back so years, when there was
very little fulness anywhere between

is believed, however, that the Douk-
hobers will in time forsake strict veg
etarianism since the severe climate
seems to demand meat, and that this
adherence of meat will be the more
easily overcome in view of the fact
that it is a comparatively recent ad-
dition to their code. 1t is also assert
ed that many of the younger genera
ton are becoming reconciled to the
owning of private estates in spite Of
their having been taught literally to
obey the words of Christ: ''Lay not
up for yourselves treasures upon
EARTH" etc, with especial emphasis
upon the words ''for yourselves
In all of their protests against the
Canadian law the Doukhobers declare
that they wish to abide rather by the
higher commands of God For exam
pie, concerning marriage they declare
that "only pure feeling of love born
of the natural recognition of moral
gality of marriage according to the
law of God," and that a legal recog-
milton, with it's accompanying fee, is
not essential. Their daughters are
given in marriage in the open air be-
fore the assembled community with
impressive words Of benediction from
the patriarchs. Divorce is almost I'M
known; but when a separation is
necessary it is held that the parties
themselves are the best judges of it's
necessity.
These religious scruples concerning
marriage and divorce have been often
misunderstood by critics and scoffers
at their religion and have lead to
many erroneous statements concern
ing their ideas of free love-" Careful
writer's declare that no people hold
chastity and purity more sacred than
they, and that their religion, while
not forbidding marriage, holds celib-
acy to be the higher state.
The Doukhobers have often been
called Russian Quakers; and while
they have many of the admira BILE
traits of the Quakers, yet this term is
not correct as applied to them, the
Russian Quakers being distinct sect.
The Doukhobers are described as 2
