Reports from distant Thibet show that the benighted people of that land do not intend to be overrun by British troops if they can do anything to prevent such state of affairs. and the report that the lamas are going from valley to valley. preaching a holy war. bodes no good for General Younghusband The Thibetans are not too well acquainted with the oonveniences of modern civilization and they do not ride Tn automobiles, but they are fighters from the word go and are making preparations to give the British as warm reception as their cruce equip ment and inferior numbers will allow.

 Santos Dumont took his new flyer out for an airing the other day in the atmos- phere immediately contiguous to gay Paris, and the ship Is said to have be- haved herself most gallantly After a half hours run at an elevation of fifty yards the big machine was put aack in the stable and will soon be brought over to St. Louis, where the Brazilian hopes to make his brother jockeys in the air ship derby look like slow field on a rainy day. By the way, the country Is being overrun. but not overfown, by new airships these days and there is man down at Mobile who has a ship which he is confident will sail before long.
 At last the secret is out! The question of ''Who cast the two ballots7 which has been puzzling the Daughters of the American Revolution since the election was held last Thursday has been an- swered by a daughter who is none other than descendant of William the Con- queror. This lady says she cast two bal lots through a mistake and has been ex- cused by her sister Daughters, but 1t was & most convenient mistake and one that is often made by voters who do not belong to the Daughters of the Ameri- can Revolution.
 From present indications the St. Louis fair will be more largely attended than the Worlds fair at Chicago. For the opening week the average daily attend ance was nearly 23O0o greater than that at Chicago during the same period, al- though 1t must be remembered that there are more free admissions to the Louis jana Purchase exposition than there were to the Worlds fair So far the tide of humanity has scarcely started to the big show and when railway travel in- creases, as 1t Is expected to do, St. Louis will do a rushing business.
 The Mexican number of the Los Angeles Times recently issued is an epi- tome of the development the republic has made within the past decade. Mex leo has made remarkable progress since President Diaz has been at the head of affairs, and from a sleepy, medaeval land, sunk in sloth and old world dreams, has awakened and become a prosperous, thriving commonwealth where capital is being invested every day and the palace train has superseded the slow but patient mule that once conveyed long robbed priests and yelled senoritas over the mountains. Much of the credit for this transformation is due to President Diaz, but the American capitalist must not be overlooked for he has been a potent factor in advancing the Mexican republic to its present position among the powers.

 When 1t comes to Opening Day and we try to show Millinery it deserves 10 be shown, our lack of space is empha- sized as never before.
 On Monday, Tuesday and Wednes- day, March 21st, 22nd and 23rd, we shall show the new Hats in the old place. It's pity, too, for the Hats we have ready are far too pretty to be crowded together promscuously What a relief it will te to get into the bigger store--for you as we'll as us.
 Our hats not imported from Eu- rope. They are made in New York. However, many of them are copies of the most exclusive designs of French millinery, while the balance ofour stock is the work of the best designers of niIli- nery in America.
