RED THIS SEASON
The Latest Partisan Fancy Is Pro
nounced Fad for Red.

All Paris has gone wild upon the sub
ject of red Red is worn in the most un-
expected ways.
It is important at all times TO get
ones colors right. Therefore, it is only
just TO say that all shades of red are
not fashionable. The woman who comes
out in brick red makes a mistake
though YOU see her very often-and the
woman who wears d red that does not
go we'll with her hair makes a double
mistake.
The. reds most in vogue just now are
the tomato and geranium colors. The
red of the gardenta is also worn and
the matchless red of the camelia. These
shades are seen everywhere and in ev-
erything. bat particularly is the red OF
the geranium worn a great deal. The
most popular red for gowns is cerise.
While buying red do not forget that
this color includes the whole rose fam
lily, and that there are very pale flesh
colored pongees as light as one could
desire-if one is hunting an evening
gown-fgured in pink roses, or in red
roses, and which make up very bril-
Hantly with pipings of geranium col

1t is a pity to let the summer season
go by without having one or two
/ bright cOlored gowns. for they seem
in keeping with the warm weather.
Soon the cool days viii come when
the brilliant coIors must he put away,
until the sun calls them out again, so
now is the time to dress in red,
The woman who is going in for red,
and to whom red is becoming, can buy
one red gown for the piazza. 1t should
be of red crepe de chine. Of a shade

 The Improved Order of Red Men en- joys the distinction of being the oldest order in the United States of purely American origin. It proudly traces it's history back to the dark days of revolutionary times, when blood and treasure were alike sacrificed in the cause of freedom. The principles upon which it was founded, freedom, friend ship and charity, are still, and will forever, remain dear to every true American heart. It has made magnif- cent gains in membership in the past few years all over this country, until today it stands fourth in numbers among the fraternal organizations of the United States. Its council fires are weekly kindled in every state in the union, and the sound of its saeh- ems tomahawks can even be heard in the Philippine islands, where, as in the United States, the flag of our country adorns the stumps of its chieftaincies.
 Brothers Cherry and Brooks will con tinue on their journey east today, stop ping at Fl Paso, where they will meet with the great chiefs of Texas on We'd nesday next.

"The Improved Order of Red Men after an existence of over TAO years, has attained a magnificent membership exceeding 425,OOO and statistics prove that its growth today exceeds that of any other similar organization. Its pro- gress in the west has been particu- larly rapid and the large and flourish ing membership in Arizona, California, and neighboring states are sources of pride to all the great chiefs.
 "Shortly after January l, a mon- ster public meeting will be held in Washington at which time President Roosevelt will be presented with the resolutions adopted by the Great Coun- cil of the United States at its recent session, commenting him for his action in bringing about peace between Rus sia and Japan. The following week the treat chiefs will sail for Panama to institute three tribes in the canal zone at Panama, Culebra and Colon, thus making the Improved Order of Red Men the first to be established in this new domain of Uncle Sam's as it was also the first to gain foothold in Alaska, the Hawaiian Islands, and the Philippines. From thence we shall trail to Porto Rico, where tribes are being organized in Poner and San Juan. During the past year the Order paid over $1,5OO,OOO in benefits, to its members, thus proving its right to front rank among the fraternal bene- ficiary societies.
 In closing MT. Brooks paid a high tribute to the large attendance of the members of Hiawatha Council of the Degree of Pocahontas, and members of tribes from neighbOring cities.
 Brother A. J. Charette of Texas then made short talk, dwelling upon the importance of ritualistic work as means of creating greater interest in the organization.

They were greeted on their arrival at the depot from Los An geles by large delegation of mem bers of the order, which included pro minent chiefs from McCabe, Congress, Jerome and this city. The great chiefs were escorted to the Oddfellows hall, where a joint council of Zuni Tribe No. and Hiawatha council No. 3 of the Degree of Pocahontas was held, af- ter which all repaired to the Prescott hotel dining room, where an excellent

Teaching that patriotism, which is the solid growth of all American institutions, blended with the true and faithful practice of the "Golden Rule," thereby carrying on a magnificent and powerful work for the relief of its sick and distressed members, the widows and orphans.
 The Great Chief of Records, Wilson Brooks, was then introduced, and after narrating in an interesting manner the incidents of the present trip, and his observations of the work being done in the various reservations wis tied. spoke as follows:

 Brother Cherry is of imposing sta ture, being 6 feet ? inches in neigh, and built in proportion. He is a man of pleasing personality and affable manner, which has assisted much in making him one of the most popular members of the Order. He is a good speaker, his talks being endowed with that force and earnestness which al ways command respect and close at tention from his audience.
 Wilson Brooks, the Great Chief of Records, was born in Connecticut in 1866. He is the son of Rev. W. E. Brooks, D. D., Congregational clergy man. He moved with his parents to Austin, Texas, at the age of IA. He entered Yale University in 1883, and graduated from that institution in 1887, since whirh time he has made Chicago, Illinois, his home. In 1890 at the age of 24 he was elected Repub- lican member of the legislature of H. linois, serving his term with credit to himself and his constituents. He joined the Improved Order of Red Men in

In 1900 he was elected Great Chief of Records of the Great Council of the United States. since which time he has been unanimously reelected to the same of fee. He is considered to have one of the most up-to-date offices of any fraternity in the United States.
 Brother A. J. Charette, member of the Great Council of Texas, at present sojourning in these hunting grounds, as- sisted the local members in greeting and entertaining the great chiefs last evening. He is one of the most en- southwest. He is credited with having organized A tribes of the order in the Lone Star reservation in the year 1904, all of which are still in existence, and experiencing a healthy growth of membership. He is a member of the finance committee of the Great Council of Texas, and enjoys the distinction of being the only Red Man in his state who was ever appointed organizer at large in his reservation.

 It was after midnight when the feast was in order, and 'long talks, !" as speeches are termed in the voeabu- lary of the Red Men, were in order. The Great Incohonee was the first to address the gathering, and his speech was timely, thoughtful, encouraging, and full of enthusiasm for the noble order of which he is the head. In part he said:
 In an itinerary through the west which began the 9th of last October, l have found the Improved Order of Red Men generally in splendid condi- tion. Have attended thirty-nine meetings in as many cities, and ev- ervwhere found the members thorough ly interested, and performing the work in a most creditable manner. The "Union sleep for work" the special meeting designated for the admission of classes of "palefaces, in the month of November, has been a most successful plan, and during that month from 3O,OOO to 10000 members were added to the order. Throughout the United States in all the various reser- vations, the utmost harmony and pros perity exists, and there are now more than 425,O00 members of the Improved Order of Red Men, with every indica- tion that the membership will exceed half a million at the next meeting of the Great Council of the United States.
 Besides being a fraternal and social society, the Red Men is the leading and oldest patriotic American organization, it having been organized in its original form among the American colonists pri- or to the revolutionary war, and as a factor in the success of the American arms. and the formation of great gov ernment, it held a high and prominent rank.
