the BLACK ROCK INDIAN SCHOOL.
It is Ideally Located Near the Big Res
ervoir Under Construction Five
Miles From Zuni.

The new government school near
the Pueblo of Zuni on the Zuni In
dian Reservation, Mckinley County,
is completed.
The location is ideal. 1t is situated
Ave miles from the village at the
parting Of two mesas, and at the head
of a beautiful valley extending ten
miles to the west. Extensive irrigat-
ing works are under construction very
near the school grounds, which, when
completed, will water the entire valley
inhabited by the Zuni Indians.
The banks of the river near the
school are very steep and here the
dam is being built, which confines the
water in an immense lake to the
north and in full sight OF the school.
A queer rock formation, black as coal,
of probable igneous origin Is every
where in sight and because OF this
the new school is named "Black Rock. :
The buildings, consisting OF the
school house, employees quarters
laundry and commissary, are built
of red sandstone and nicely finished
and equipped with every convent
ence as to heat, lighting and baths
Few schools are more healthfully ant
beautifully located than "Black Rock.
| It Is thought that the day schoo
near the village of zuni will still b.
maintained, as indeed appears neces
sary from the number OF small chi
dren In the village.

that Hughes dropped the inquiry be-

Long Coat the Newest.

The log coat which is to be such

over the entire gown, made of the one

velvet waist with the skirt. OF course
the great difficulty and the great OBJ
lection to velvet waist to match
skirt is that the material is heavy, but
the newest weaves of velvet are won
derfr'ly light in comparison with those
OF few years ago, and when trans

collar are added, instead of the high
lined stock collar of a few seasons
past, there is great difference in the
comfort Of the waist. These gowns
will be worn ir the street without a
wrap in the early days of the winter,
and the coat worn over them will be
loose enough to be thrown off when
entering house. In other words, the
gown is distinctive and finished with
out any outer garment.

Portents of Birth and Youth of
Empress Borne Out by After
Lilo - Courage Ono of Her
Main Virtues.

The story Of the Empress Eugenie's
birth and youth forms an allegorical
synopsis Of her whole career. She
was born in lovely garden, but in
the midst of terrible earthquake.
Still, the dramatic character of her
advent had no i'll effects upon the
child, who grew to girlhood one of the
healthiest, most robust, and at the
same time, one Of the loveliest crea-
lures upon whom the sun shone. And
then, before she was out of the school
room she was In love with a man who
pretended to love her, but who in
reality was secretly paying court to
her sister. No sooner was the discov-
cry made than they found the future
empress lying on her couch, apparent
ly in death agony. She had taken
poison. BY little less than a miracle
her life was saved; and we all know
the story Of her subsequent career
how her peerless beauty fascinated
the emperor, and how, as his wife,
she became the greatest lady in Eu-
rope, the sole dictatress in fashion.

New Short Coats.

The new short coats have arrived.
They are queer and will not be becom-
ing to the majority. Truly, they look
like impertinent street sparrows. They
do not attempt to fit the figure under
the arms, and the waistline Is about
four inches above the waist. From this
point they curve out at the back, and
the slash up the center makes the two
sides stand out and almost cross at
the hem exactly like sparrow's tail.
Whether or not this original shape
will be worn is in the hands of the
women. One thing is true-the short
coat is the thing of the moment for az
ternoon frocks.
