SPRING PINERY.
What City Repo. ter Has Seen
and Heard About Spring
Millinery.

Sioux City Journal, 7: A certain
smile which is worn by womankind al
this time of the year can be taken to
mean but one thing that the wearer
has ventured into the haunts of the
milliners, has gazed her fill upon the
visions of delicious color combinations
and, best ot all, has safely slowed away
in a dust proof box at home the partic-
ular creation which is to signify her
entrance into woman's highest realza-
tion of spring.
To the uninitiated this smile is some
times taken to indicate pleasure
at the glow of the sunshine Incl
dentally the sunshine plays a part but
only as 1T appears to hasten the glad
day when the wonderful spring hat"
may make its debut in company with
the proud possesssor who has had it in
hiding for some time.
There is recompense about thus
keeping the hat in cold storage before
wearing it. 1t cultivates woman S
ability to enjoy things all by herself,
for, unless her husband is a marvel
and appreciates such things, innumer
able visits to the hatbox must be enjoy
ed alone. No outsider could possibly
be admitted to these private dress re-
hearsals.
There Is a certain type of girl who
always has at her last party 'the most
perfectly lovely time" she ever had. In
speaking of hats, most women are in
clined to resemble the aforesaid girl in
language. Each season seems to offer
the NEST attractive head coverings. But
superlatives are particularly in order
in regard to hats this season. The
usual soft beauty of many of the flow
ers and the daring but effectively pleas
ing color combinations, together with
the plant, grace of the straw and silk
braids, present result capable of daz-
zling even the most phlegmatic of wo-
mankind.
A turban, new in form and already
popular in the eastern cites, where
street debut has been effected is the
polo turban 1t is small round tur-
ban, ornamented with bow, buckle
or a cluster of flowers
A small Napoleon hat executed into
the colors of the violet, with the violets
also used to strike the deeper notes, is
popular. The violet hats themselves
continue to gladden. the hearts of their
past or would be deyotees. The foliage
hat, fashioned of almost silyery, soft
colored leaves, ale prettier than ever
The large hat still claimes attention
This year It's brim is turned high in the
back and loaded down with flowers,
while the front brim bends alluIjngly
over the eyes.
As for colors. there are light blues
adorned with punches of violets sy m
phonies in green's, brown combinations
in which the golden sheen is artisti-
cally wrought, red again, and all the
colors. The roses, in the soft pastel
shades which reflect light never seen
on natures rose, are not the smallest
charm of these 1905 creations.

STATE REVENUE.
Laws Enacted for Better Taxa
tion to Insure Sufficient
Income for State.

Pierre dispatch, g. The Legislative
session which closed its work has been
the most quiet session ever held in the
state. With the exception of the little
time when the primary election matter
was up for consideration in the house,
and the closing days, when the Spring
field Normal question was being fought
out, the absence of strangers was most
noticeable. For weeks at time the
hotel lobbies would be cleared by 0
O'Clock in the evening, and there was no
such stir as usually attends session.
At the OPENING of the session both
outgoing Gov. Herreid and the incom-
ing governor, S. e. Elrod, called to the
attention of the members the need of
revenue legislation which would bring
to the state the absolutely necessary
funds to meet the growing demands of
the state. No move was made in this
direction until the session was half
gone, and what was secured in that di
rection can be attributed largely to
Gov. Elrod, who, when he saw inaction
on the part of the lawmakers, began to
urge some measure foI relief, and final
ly indicated the outlines of the laws
which were finally enacted, and which
among them will without doubt large
ly in crease the state revenues.
What can probably be looked upon as
the most important one for immediate
relief is that which requires the county
auditors over the state to meet with
the state board of equalization annually
before the assessment work begins. to
discuss plans for this work In the past
counties have each been working separ-
at ely, and on valuation basis, this caus-
ing the returns from the different conn
ties to show the widest of range With
the auditors meeting with the state
board and locating a standard base
for the whole state before beginning
their work. there will be no such varia-
tions, and the general tendency will
be toward increased assessments.
In this same line was the tax ferret
law, whicn allows comfy boards is to go
back of the assessors returns and call
for witnesses and papers, and in case
they so desire to employ ferrets on
percentage to search out property which
has escaped The one other measure
was that for the taxation of inberi
ances. While this is not looked
upon as large revenue producer at the
present time, it will bring in consider
able revenue from older sections of the
state. and will be on hand for the fu
ture when ssch interests have become
SO strong that such attempted legisla-
tion would have met bitter fight.
With these three measures it is hoped
that the state revenues will make a
better showing TOR the future than for
the past few years when the general
fund has been showing growing de-
fcit

The Frisco System will run an accom- modation train around a branch line into Ensley from their main line just to the outskirts of the city. Epsley thus becomes directly connected with the outside world and trunks can be checked from that point for the hrst tims since the city has been estab- lished.
 Ensley has population of 1S,ee0, and five trunk line railroads have tracks tc that place but none operate passenger trains there. When citizens had to come to Birmingham 3n electric cars and then purchase railroad tickets. The hen6liLg of trunks from Ensley heretofore was a difficult job. The new passenger train will do big bus mess, 1t is believed. The passenger rate on the trains will be 15 cents to the city against 10 cents on the part of the electro railway, but trunks can be checked to the city. It Is believed that the other roads will make arrange ments to run passenger trains to and from Ensley.
