PARIS, July Is. 1903.
The gay Partisan summer social season
has almost terminated. although many bril-
liant functions are announced to take place
and continue until the end of July. AS
Providence has at last vOuchsafed TO be-

At the king houses one hears ma

they have not had as successful a season

failure to the religious disturbances and the

trouble originates and ends in the sartorial
brain alone. For how could women gown
themselves more extensively, gorgeOuSly
and yaredly than at the present moment,
even to accommodate the couturiere? No;
despite the tradesman's usual growl, the
season must be Il financial success. BciutI-
full examples of Slrtoral art have been
made and are still being created for the
coming villegiature.

Important Land Decision.

The Lewiston land office received
this week from the department ruling
on the Armstrong case which decides
that filing an application to purchase
under the timber and stone act without
making proof and paying money does
not preclude the applicant from MAX
ing subsequent filings The case de-
cided was the contest of John b, Ander-
son against the timber and stone entry
of James S. Armstrong. The contest
was made on the ground that Armstrong
had three times prior to his last filing
made application to purchase under the
stone and timber act and that his last
statement was fraudulent.
