Hit a DRY Spot.

The Valley View seems to have hit
a place where the price became a
rather serious matter. when 1t declar-
ed that its publisher was the Tom
Plat Of East Grand Forks. and that
he would turn the present school
board out into the stubble field If it
did not purchase his principles and in
fluence with the price of the public
printing. The immediate cause of the
bilious agitation was the fact that
several months ago the said school
, board ordered from The Evening
Times 1850 worth of printing which
was required to be done in an artistic
manner. The Evening Times can not
help the fact that the school board
has not been reduced to a state of
nervous collapse because of the threat.

And the next day the western mill

beauty. She was magnifcently dress
ed, but her eyes were furtive and rest
less, and when she thought no one
was looking at her she secreted under
her coat three or four valuable orna-
ments. The physician and the west
erner smiled slightly at one another.

ton of the patient, told the husband to
return the next day alone.

she has taken

seeds of fir and spruce trees to replen-

of the senate. The fact that Mr.. Till
man under these circumstances was
selected to report to the senate the
most important measure of the ses-
sion and one in whose fate the presi-
dent is especially interested has caused
no little comment
The senator from South Carolina is
known as ''Pitchfork Ben" from the fact
that while he was governor of South
Carolina and Grover Cleveland occu-
pied the executive chair at Washing
ton he promised if he ever got to the
senate to use pitchfork in the ribs OF
the president. He was elected to the
senate not long afterward and meta
phorically kept his promise By bitter
arraignment Of Mr.. Cleveland's admin
istration. The senator was born in
Edgefield county, S. c., in 1S47 and in
1864 left school to join the Confederate
army, but was compelled to give up
this idea by illness, which caused him
the loss Of an eye. He followed farm
ing as a pursuit and in 1886 got into
politics. In 1890 he was elected gov
ernor. and he became a senator In 1895

A Scheme of the Willy Danes.

The Danish Biological society is at
present experimenting with electric
lighting of the deep strait known as
the Little Belt The lights are far be-
meath the surface of the waters, so as
to the light sea bottom. The intention is
not, as might be supposed, to make i'm
possible the clandestine passage of sub
marines, but purely and simply to
brighten the cells and to prevent them
from passing into the outer seas and
thus being lost to the Danish fisheries.
The experiments are based upon the
fact that these fish are well known to
be afraid of light and never, for exam
pie, migrate during the time of full
moon. By the expedient Of arranging
a whole row of artificial full moons
across the mouth Of the strait the willy
Dane hopes to prevent them from mi
grating at all.

Styles In Skirts.

Although bodices and sleeves tend
to be overelaborate in the present fash.
ions, it is consolation to know that
skirts are being made absolutely plain,
says the Washington Star. Apparent.
~ similarity, however, is very deceiv.
ing, and this is true to great extent
in the new skirts, which have SEM
blance to great simplicity, but which
in reality require not only a skillful
cut, but also good material Of ample
width. Materials have really more tc
do with clothes this year than usual
ly, as in order to give the fullness and
swing to both skirts and sleeves it is
imperative that the material should be
of generous width. To show a seam
unnecessarily is a fault in the new
clothes, which must have more or less
the effect Of being quite seamless in
the bodice.

judicious melange of that color Violet
is also mingled in several shades from
deep wood violet to the faint parma.
For early spring notice many hand
some gowns in violet cloth with the
trimmings arranged to show different
shades, and the same color scheme is
carried out in the helios and some Of
the softer green's, while the metals are
still represented. There are dozens
upon dozens of new dress stuffs of all
weights and qualities. Broadcloth, mo-
hair, vOiles and the soft varieties of all
kinds Of wool are still favorites. For
hard wear the cravenettes are valua-

EARLY SPRING NOVELTIES.
Reasonable Millinery Hints and Some

Reasonable Millinery Hints and Some.
thing About Coming Modes.
Tip tilted, like the heroine of one
OF Tennyson's poems, are the hats the
powers that be are preparing for us
Just now. There are some few palmer
fancies, but the great majority of hats
for spring seem to touch the head only
around the crown. The brlm is turned
upward and held that way by all sorts
of devices. Feathers in the fullest of
plumes curl around them, and there
are rosettes. But the real Easter hat
will have more ribbons and flowers
than for several seasons If one may
judge by the prophecies of n manufac-
turing milliner, whose underground
fairy palace Is filed to OVERLOOKING
with the most exquisite blossoms and
ribbons. Nearly 800 girls are employ
ed in that place copying designs sent
from abroad. So we mNy reasonably
expect to see ribbons floating In the
air and flowers fastened to every hat
There are some tentative ugly droop-
ing hats with mob crowns, but nothing
can make them becoming. ViOlets, OF
course, are there, roses never fade ia
these places, and orchids are initiated
so cleverly that one scarcely knows
whether those rare flowers are real or
not.
1t is a matter for deep study to find
out just how the wearers are expected
to keep those hats on. There seems to
be band in the back or at one side so
planned that the front elevation and
the perspective are all at odds, and yet
the hat holds on by some occult proc
ess, and the wearer looks bewitching.

In the line of skyscrapers nothing
has ever been erected that can COM

will tower above Broadway, at the cor

structure will soar to height of forty
stories and will be 500 feet in height
from the ground level to the highest

twice the height of the famous Flat
