DROWNING OF CHASE

KENAi, Fcb. 2S.--On Dec. i4 last, John G. Chase was drowned in kussiloff lake, while crossing with A. L. Weaver in Peterbo,- Ough canoe, which capsizal in a sudden squall.
 . Nr.. Chase was formerly from Denver, Colo, and until the sum- mer of 1901, was paymaster for the ?. c. $. S- Co. at Seattle, where he had made many friends. He resigned his position there to ac- ccpt q more lucrative one with the Northwestern Mining and Devel- opmcnt Co. on Kussiloff lake.
 He had been down to Seattle Last fall and returned on the Octo- Der trip of the Santa Ana to take charge of the eompany's works during the winter. He and A. L. Weaver, his assistant, had been down towards kussiloff getting the freight in readiness for sledding, and on their way to the mine. It was blowing pretty stiff breeze, but not enough to occasion any alarm, when a sudden squall from the glacier at the head of the Lake struck them, and before they real xed it, they were in the water. Both managed to reach the up- turned canoe and sit astride of it, but the wind increasing, the seas would turn the frail craft and throw them into the water, it being go cold and everything freezing, they could not retain their hold on the slippery bottom of the boat.
 After standing it for about half an hour Chase called to Weaver that he could hold out no longer. Weaver started to go to his assis- tance at once, but before he cou Id reach him, Chase was gone, and it was all Weaver could do to return to the boat, although he is a strong swimmer. Weaver managed tO reach shore n another half hour with his clothes frozen stiff, and that is about all he remembers dis tinctly, until he found himself being rubbed by some men who happened to be at camp. He had a very narrow escape from freezing to death. and even now has by no means recovered from the exposure

firms and the Opera

1t is often said and the people are
generally quite willing TO believe that
the swords, pistols and guns brandish
ed on the stage were once used in real
lighting; have had their place upon
the real theatre of history. But il Is
rare that we learn of arms once con-
signed to the mimic wars of the stage
being brought forth to serve their
ancient purpose.
Nevertheless, if you will get permits
sion to visit the National Archives
that are kept in the beautiful old
palace of the Guises just opposite the
famous government pawn shop in the
rue des Francs Bourgeois, next time
you go TO Paris, you may see a letter
which proves that some OF the
weapons used in the storming of the
Bastile in 1880 were taken by those
| furious assailants from the property
room of the Opera. The following is
an extract of the letter signed by NJ.
Dauvergne in support of the above
statement:
! IN. Jannssenn told RE last evening
that a large detachment of the com
mon people presented themselves at
all the arms they could find in the
building. He accordingly opened up
the room where the stage properties
were stored. They took possession
of the sabres only, as there were no
other arms which they could use-the
axes and clubs being only of card
board. After this the crowd quietly
went away"

bination a high crowned hat of pastel
green MORE velvet with crumpled rose
decorations. 1t must be noted that
a rose leaf crumpled between the
fingers changes color. The high crown,
tinted lace medallion, has a narrow
front brim, with high sharp turn at
the side The underbrim is trimmed
with fine effect, in folds of crumpled
rose, the left side being further decor
ated with a group of delicately tinted
green and rose pink feathers. AS a
type of the artistic feeling displayed
this season, it is worth while drawing
attention to the effective and charming
grace of even so simple matter as
the manner in which the blade of the
plume is thrust through the trimming.
Another high-crowned hat, that may
we'll serve as a safe model, is of black
MORE velvet, puckered effect, tighten
ed with touches of wiry tinted satin.
The high crown has a white satin
band, and is outlined by an upright
border of white-faced satin loops and
artistically rumpled cross bands of
velvet, either plain or decorated with
fancy white stitching. The graduated
fiared brim turns up toward the left,
and is finished by second upturned
rim or edge. The upper and under
brims are self trimmed with pucker-
ings of MORE velvet, and as culmi-
mating touch two superb ostrich
plumes fully forty-two inches long fall
from a mass of loops in long, grace
full sweep.
The fat crown, although rarely seen
| in dressy hats, is not altogether
tabooed. They are extremely becom-
| ing TO certain full faces of youthful
contour and fresh coloring. A woman
with fine eyes will not readily re-
nounce the opportunity of enhancing

they require a fine eye for correct
form and construction.
An interesting and artistic example
of the eccentric hat form of this sea-
son is an extraordinary canoe shape
of plum velvet decorated with black
lace wings and a tuft of ostrich tips,
the latter serving TO clasp a plum
colored plume dropping low on the
hair. A second group of ostrich tips
in tuft form is shaded from the deep
est crimson plum to delicate laven-
der pink at the tips. The hat with its
blade-like construction is extremely
difficult to handle, as slight error in
the arrangement of feather or wing
would at once destroy its beautiful
sense of perfect balance.
1t is curious TO note that the crown

recent veil draperies, is not seen in
latest Paris hats. High crowns with

the debts of Princess Louise,
daughter of the King of the
Belgians. This enterprising young
lady has run up accounts in Paris for
hats, dresses and jewelry to the tidy
sum of half a million francs.
Whether her mother, the late
Queen of the Belgians, cut her allow
ance short, or whether the princess,
finding Belgian shopkeepers cynical
as to her solvency, decided to run over
to Paris for trifling additions to her
wardrobe, does not appear; but her
Paris creditors must have tried every
means of getting paid, and tried in
vain, for they have begun a suit
