NOTES OF THE FASHIONS
Velvet and Corduroy in Great Favor
Silk and Fur In Com
bination.

In every perfectly appointed ward
robe this season there is at least one
velvet and one velveteen or corduroy
gown. Never were these materials so
popular. They are wonderfully pliabls
and are shown In the most exquisite
shades, as well as black, says the Delin-
Gator When the entire velvet costume
Is not possible, there must be at least
coat or skirt Of the rich fabric. The
association of cloth and velvet, match
ing in color, is one OF the fancies Of the
season.
The smartest walking costumes are
made Of the hollow-cut cords, new
corduroy weave. The skirts of these
costumes are plated, with the plaits
stitched down below the hips and far
ing prettily below, and are in comfort
able walking length. The jacket may
be either of the long-skirted variety
or in tourist style. An important ex-
ample Of this corduroy suit was in a
rich bronze shade. The Louis XIV. coat
had a vest of suede in pale tan, fastened
with bronze and gold buttons, and the
skirt was plated model in instep
length. To be worn with this costume
was blouse of chiffon cloth in the
same shade as the corduroy, having re-
lief notes Of Chinese embroidery In
brilliant-hued silks, and collar, cuffs
and belt of suede matching the vest
A hat Of the corduroy, in tricorne shape,
simply adorned with suede band and a
cog pompon, completed this attractive
creation.
The latest fashion In millinery for
wee girls is the large white felt o.
beaver hat, trimmed with big clusters
Of velvet and silk roses to match the
color of the little cloth or silk pelisse
or coat. This particular fashion pos
sesses a definite advantage, the roses
being infinitely easier to match than
the headgear itself, while single hat
can be made to do duty for two or three
different toilettes. Brown Is, besides
much worn by the nursery folk.
Among the dress accessories are lit
tie waistcoats of silk, ornate velvet,
vesting, cloth or leather, the last usual
ly being cut to order. They are precise
and severe in finish, though all sorts
of devices are wrought upon them in
braid needlework, jet, and even In beads
The smartest examples are to be worn
with the open coats, of which there is
a great variety.
There is a new weave Of yelling, quite
heavy, called Panama wolfe, that Is used
for street and semidress gowns. 1t is
shown in both plain and embroidered
effects and in the most fashionable
colors.
The association of silk with fur is ex
tremely smart. Some Of the most at
tractive visiting, church and reception
gowns are fashioned Of the new soft
silks and either trimmed with fur bands
or accompanied by a handsome wrap
or pelerine and muff.

The Canadian Land Craze Declines.
Milwaukee sentinel.

Milwaukee Sentinel
Land in Wisconsin costs more than in
the Canadian Northwest, but hundreds Of
thousands of acres can still be purchased
at figures and on terms that enable any
man with few hundred dollars to acquire
traction which, with good health and
prudent living, he can keep himself and
his family above want from the outset and
in time make himself independent.
The falling off in the sales OF Canadian
lands indicates that this logic is impress
ing itself more fOrciby on American land
hunters, aud that the craze which was re-
sp)nsible for the expatration of thouz-
ands of good American citizens a year or
two ago has in measure subsidized.

The amount of debt to the Government
thrown on the rural population is increas-

abroad has resulted in enriching the Coy

place over and above all others. No man
deserves to be paid for the performance Of
his duty in politics any more than in the
other affairs of life To do ones duty is
to be virtuous, and no one should claim
or demand compensation for its perfor-

man was on trial for lunacy. His
sanity was doubted, and the District
Attorney thought it best to prove il.

of the leading witnesses:
"Do you think the prisoner can
distinguish between right and wrong
and good and bad?"
II think he can, SIR" said the
witness. for saw him take a drink

stuff. Yes. sir. think he knows
the difference between good and
bad"

The Railroad.

s. important have become the rail
roads to civilization that their con-
struction and operation are not only
questions of national pslicy, but even
of international contention. The re-
cent war between Russia and Japan
was largely a struggle over the Man
churia Railway. The possession of
the railroad was the stragic key, not
merely to a military situation but to
a commercial situation. The cOun-
try that possesses it controls in
a great measure the trade Of the
orient.
China has made remarkable pre-
gress since the Boxer outrages. At
last she has opened the door of her
oriental seclusion to the commerce
and civilization of the world. The
announcement which has been made
by the Chinese Minister to President
Roosevelt of the policy of his govern
ment in the construction Of railroads
marks an epoch in the history of
China and it may perhaps be reguard-
ed as a thousand mile post in the de-
velopment Of the human race. Chi
ma has not only decided 20 build rail-

HOG Philosophy.

A symmetrically developed hog is
the profitable porker.
A runty pig may be properly de-
fined rs one that eats its head off
about three or four times a year.
The hogpen is the original banking
institution on the farm, and the far
mer can draw on his account any day
in the year.
Everlastingly at it is the success
full hogman's motto. You can't
make the most of the pigs and slight
them for a single day.
The State fairs are the best edu-
Gators we have for the rank and file
of hog growers. They set higher
ideals for men to work toward.
The high grade hogs now found
on the average farm trace through
the best and purest ancestry known
t. the hog breeding world.

Dressed As a Man Lives As a
Tramp For Love of
Husband.

IL will stick TO him if | have to

Johnson to-day, speaking of her
married life, in the course of which
she has dressed as a man and
"tramped it" with her husband.
Twice since her marriage three
years ago she has seen her husband
sent behind prison bars. He is now
serving a sentence of six years in
Wyoming for forgery and the young
wife has returned to her home in
Salt Lake City.
The two eloped from Brigham
City three years ago with a horse
and buggy which johnson had stol-
en-. After a long pursuit Johnson
was arrested. He escaped from
jail, but his wife pursuaded him to
surrender himself. Later he was
pardoned. Mrs. Johnson cut her
hair and put on a suit of her hus-
bands clothes. They tramped from
Ogden to Evanston, Wyo., where
both secured employment as sheep
herders, the wife still maintaining
her disguise.
