Umbrellas
 for Men
 and Women

This holiday showing is really one of much importance. The variety is very large and of the most select character. We don't buy umbrellas like ordinary stores-just as they are shown by the manufacturer-but buy the cover and frame and import our own handles. The handles we are showing this season represent the cream of the European markets-man- nish English effects, dainty refined ones from Germany and France; beau tiful handles of gold, bright sterling silver, French gray silver, silver and pearl, gold and pearl, ivory and fine natural woods. The showing is range of $1.oo up to $25.o0.
 AS a gift there's an old saying, "When in doubt buy an umbrella" for what's more useful and who can have too many?

NO CLASH ON RATES
SHIPPERS ARE SATISFIED WITH
RAILROAD ARRANGE
MENTS
MATTER OF TERMINAL TARIFFS
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
Confer With JObbing Interests
agreement Practically
Concluded.

The Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific roads were again in session yester-
day over the disputed terminal tariffs
with the jobbing interests of these points
While it is reported that the roads In
terested did not know of the meeting
called by the railroad commission for
March Z, until the fact was published in
the daily papers, it was stated at the
time the information was given out by
the commission that they had been in
formed by the roads that the rates had
been agreed upon.
There appears to be disposition IN
some quarters to make a great deal out
of these conferences between the roads
and the shippers, but it was definitely
stated by the commission at the time the
extension of the time was given that a
satisfactory agreement must mean that
all the shipping interests of Crookston
and Fergus Falls and the rail-
road commission should agree that
the rates We're right before the order of
the commission in regard to compelling
the restoration of rates should be issued.
1ne prevalent opinion seems to be at
present that the roads and the shippers
have reached such an agreement and
that there will be no further difficulty
over the rates after they have been sub
mitted to the commission.

Pennsylvania Officials May Be Adj

CHICAGO Feb. ga rule was en-
tered in Judge Tuthilrs court yesterday
against the local management of the
Pennsylvania railroad summoning them
into court March 4 to show cause why
they should not be adjudged in contempt
for alleged disobedience Of an injunction
entered against them June g. 1900.
The injunction prohibited the running
of trains of the Pittsburg and Fort
Wayne road on the tracks of the Penn
sylvania road in Stewart avenue between
Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh
streets The former road is the lessor
of the Pennsylvania tracks. The injunc-
ton was affirmed by the appellate court
last January. The bill for an injunction
was filed by Henry r. Bond, a property
owner along Stewart avenue. The
grounds for the injunction were that the
railroad had no right to lay its tracks
along a public thoroughfare without first
obtaining the consent of the abuttng
property owners. This 1t is charged, the
Pennsylvania company failed to do.
