The New Bodice,

Everyone must have noticed the prey
alence Of the so-called Marie Antoinette
bodice. the exaggerated high, SHRED
girdle with the Iong-pointed front. a
boned and fitted lining is required for
these bodices, which might almost be
said to be waists IN themselves, since
they need only sleeves and a yoke to be-
come so in fact. There is a tendency
to combine these bodiees with trans
parent yokes or chemisettes, and many
exquisite bits Of hand are to be had in
the best Stops.

ETIQUETTE OF WEDDINGS.
Fashions Change Little in Regard to
Prospective Duties Of Bride
and Groom.

The many changes that take place
from time to time in the matter OF the
conducting of the church wedding, In
distinction to the home affair, may seem
to be of more consequence than is really
the case In fact. the service at church,
or. rather, the regular mode Of entrance
and departure of the bridal party, re-
mains substantially the same. The
groom. with his best man, enters the
church with the minister from the chan
eel entrance and stand facing the eongre-
cation in the chaneel, awaiting the bri-
dal party. If there are pages they come
first, the ushers may come next. two by
two; the maids next, the maids OF honor
alone, and the bride with her father or
brother. The groom meets the bride on
the chancel steps and leads her to the al
tar. where the minister stands to per-
form the ceremony. After the giving
aWay'' the father, or whoever stands for
him. steps down and stands with the rest
of the family.
The order is reversed in leaving the
church; the bride and groom walk first,
the maid Of honor and best man follow,
and then the ushers and the maids. The
pages may precede the bride coming out
or follow directly after.
All expenses Of the wedding are paid
by the parents Of the bride, the groom
paying only for the carriage that takes
him and his best man to the church, the
ministers fee, the going-away carriage
and the flowers for the bride and hel
| maids.

occasional sales up to 9J0U. Can. ners are higher st ef75 Co g225, not many below s200. Demand for cows holds up very strong and is a feature of the market. Stocker and feeder prices got pretty low last week, which brought in a large number of buyers This had the effect of stimulating prices, and the market for this class has been active this week, 25 to 5 cents higher prices. Some comm0nish branded Colorado feeders sold at 1925, and highly bred stoekers at S410, with practically all the range stockers and feeders between these prices.
 The sheep and lamb market is 10 or 15 cents lower this week, al- though new tip was made on lambs Wednesday, 67 pounds Utah selling at $720, and some of the same kind at same price. Thursday, Arizona lambs sold at S6.65 to S7.O0, yearlings from Utah and Arizona at $5.25 to S5.75, wethers S4.90 to $5.10, ewes $4.40 to $4.65. New Mexico mixed sheep and yearlings. 93 pounds, made $525, with another shipment of poorer stuff at $500. Demand from the country for stock and feeding stuff remains unsatisfed, as little of this class is available, with the packers doing as little sorting as they do now. A small number of medium wethers have gone at $4.20 this week, good stock up to S4.50. Present prices for sheep and lambs are $1.00 to $1.50 above last year for all classes.

DOLLAR GASA POSSIBILITY

Dollar gas for Las Vegas seems To
be among the possibilities Of the not
distant future.
At the special meeting of the city
council called AT i;3o yesterday after
noon to discuss the proposal to grant
a franchise for the construction OF
gas works, after the proposed fran
chise asked for by II. II. Hoke and
associates had been read, Alderman
w, b. Bunker sprang a surprise by
reading a franchise to he applied for
by W. II, Colburn OF Colorado Springs
the chief point Of interest of which
was that n maximum rate for lighting
and heating purposes OF 81 a thous
and.
The draft of a franchise submitted
by Mr., Hoke was carefully elaborated
A maximum rate for both lighting aud
heating OF $3.50 "A thousand was named
and the term asked for was forty
years. All matters relating to reia'
tive duties Of city and company were
carefully gone Into.
The proposed Colburn franchise
was vague and incomplete and gave
evidence Of having been hastily pre-
pared.
The council let the matter go over
TIL this morning when a meeting was
held and the matter still further dis,
cussed. The question was laid over
until the next regular meeting. when
It will be again discussed and perhaps
settled.
Mr.. Colborn is said to be a Colo
RADIO millionaire who owns the Can.
yon City and other gas plants.
No member of the council had had
an mixing of the rival franchise and
the people of the city Will be Just as
much surprised to hear of It.
