Fuel at Cost Price.

Detroit, Jan. THE City of Detroit
is going into the coal business and
will supply the people with coal at
cost prices. The Common Council ap-
propriated $4,000 for the purchase of
coal to be sold by the municipality,
and Mayor Maybury approved the res
olution today. Advertisements will
be printed this afternoon calling for
bids.

Miles of Railroads Washed Out or Buried
Immense Property Loss.

Seattle, Jan. 5.-White River over
flowed it's banks near O'Brien Sta
tion, four miles below Seattle, at
o'clock this morning. The people OF
the town, not fearing disaster, had re
tired last night, but were awakened
by the water, in many cases creeping
into their beds. Orillia, town on
the White River, two miles above
O'Brien, was also flooded, but the peo-
pie were warned and many of them
left their homes and secured places
of safety before the rushing waters
had surrounded their homes. At
O'Brien, however, little children, wo-
men and men were imprisoned in
their houses with eight and 10 feet of
water about them.
A relief train was ordered from Sc
attic, and on arriving with boats, the
rescuing party found several families
the women and children of which
were huddled on chairs and tables in
order to keep from the water that was
more than two feet deep on the floors.
All persons were taken to places OF
safety. No lives are reported lost,
but much household belongings,
fences and some buildings have been
ruined or lost.

cAsTRo's ARMY DEFEATED.


\
New York, Jan. 7.-According to
the Herald's correspondent in VIII
lemstad, the revolutionists are ad-
vancing in three columns on General
Castro's army. A desperate fight oc-
CURED within eight miles of the City
of Caracas, resulting favorably to the
revolutionists. They are cutting all
the telegraph lines, tearing up the
railroad tracks and are hourly expect
ed in the immediate neighborhood of
the city. A condition of extreme pam
ic prevails among those who have
heretofore believed that Castro was
invincible.
A committee of the most prominent
citizens has gone to President
Castro and made representations of
how hopelessly untenable is his posi-
ton. But he insists on holding on un-
til his forces are defeated in a decis-
sive battle. 1t seems that this cannot
be far distant. President Castro is
already planning what he shall do
when the inevitable comes, but he
will make a desperate fight before
quitting, as he has no chance to es-
cape. The only alternate is imprison-
ment.
The correspondent add that no at
tempt is now DolnS maze Dy Cu0 allies
to conceal the fact that they are af-
fording assistance to the revolu-
tionists.
Washington, Jan. THE response
of the allied powers, to Castro's last
proposition to submit Venezuela s
case to the arbitration of The Hague
tribunal have not yet been received,
but it is believed that the answers
will not be much longer delayed, as a
continuance of the present state of
affairs on the Venezuela case is not
viewed with satisfaction. The block
| ade is believed to be working injury to
American interests, therefore the de-
sire is strong to see the protocol, which
will include provision for the ter
mination of the blockade, speedily
agreed upon.
Mr.. Bowens advices from Caracas
show that conditions there are very
much disturbed; that internal revolu-
tionary troubles have intensified and
that President Castro is sarely beset

Tacoma, Jan. 5.-There was moth
ing doing on the Northern Pacific to-
day, not a train leaving the CITY, and
the railroad officials are unable to
make any definite statement as to the
future. The chinook still prevails,
and water is pouring down the Cas-
cades in torrents. At Martin, on the
east side of the tunnel, there is a
washout of nearly 800 feet, while sew
eral places between the tunnel and
Ellensburg are under water, or the
tracks are covered deep in mud.
Castle Rock, Wash, Jan. 5.-The
situation here is somewhat improved.
The flood reached it's highest point
at II p. m. Saturday, and has since
receded about 20 inches. The rain
has ceased. 1t is estimated that about
10000 cords of shingle bolts have
gone down the river. The center span
of the Toledo wagon bridge is gone
and many smaller bridges also, but
communication with the country dis
tricts is almost impossible, and full
details cannot be learned. The
Wright mill boom gave way today
letting out several hundred cords Of
bolts. All the piling recently driven
for bridge across the Cowlitz at this
point is also gone.

ment of no especial significance as il
appears In print, but spoken by a tailor
1t Is most potent message. Ys: it was
not enough to induce women to surren-
der altogether to the mixtures and nov
city weaves, undeniable as was their
stylishness. So dressy tailor gowns in
cloths of smooth surface and fine tex
ture became in demand, and now 1t
seems as if they might take almost as
high rank as they did two seasons ago.
They're of the fancy tailor-made order,
Of course, with quite as elaborate trim
ming us they had when they last were
abundant. Some of the ornamentation
is hardly of the character of tailor finish.
That's where the fancy" comes in. But
If this point brings some incongruity, 1t
is not to be detected except by close
analysis, and the latter is forestalled by
the favorable impression such tailoring
creates.
According to early promise, this is to
be a velvet season. Such was the prom
Use year ago, and a year before that,
yet little came of it beyond a sprinkling
of velvet dress-ups and not a great deal
more of outdoor gowns. The velvet used
for these gowns was almost without ex-
ception plain of weave and solid of color.
The shade usually was moderately sub
dued. too, though now and then a green
or a blue took on assertive hue. Prac-
tically all of velvet that was fanciful
in weave was reserved for trimmings.
and as such was employed sparingly.
This winter there is likely to be radical
change. Anyway, the means are at hand
for it, for the stocks of yelvets include
the usual fine array of solid colors, with
the newly stylish shades represented
and many fancy weaves. The latter are
noticeable for originality, goods of equal
novelty being hard to find elsewhere.

OF the same will terminate In handsome

pear on both bodices and skirts, and the
more conventional landings, collar, cuff

all of these the velvet may be plain or
fancy, according to the ideas of the in
dividual. While the novelty sorts are so
snowy that it would seem as II they
would warn most women to use them
warily, il at all, their numbers and va

this winters velvet season" is likely to
be memorable.
For the accompanying pictures, models
were selected exclusively from fashions

there are many show dresses more inn

beauty. These are not represented in
this selection, though tie latter is well
marked by tasteful originality. The
gown of the small picture was tan silk

minnows, l from one side Of the boat
and my companion from the other side.
There are perch In that water, and
big ones. The fish bit fairly well,
but, while my fellow fisherman caught
pickerel, not thing but perch would
come to my hook.
This peculiar division of catch
showing no sign Of changing, we
changed places in the boat, as l want
ed to land a pickereI or two before we
quit, and didn't see any way to do it
except by fishing at the spot where
they seemed alone to be. You may
imagine my amazement, then, when
the first fish caught was a perch and
my companion still caught pickerel.
After he had caught three big ones
and / had landed half dozen perch
1 suggested that we exchange rods and
see If that would make any difference.
To my Joy soon hooked and got into
the boat the biggest pickerel that had
been taken all day. and my compan-
