Life's parting way. ~

LILO pal AAAS way.
There is not a little sweet sad
ness in graduating. All the old
college friendships, games, frol-
les now must end. The gradu-
ate goes fourth to conquer his
world alone. He has no friend
to help him, neither classmate
or professor to counsel him, he
is alone among men. But that
is only the sadness, and it is not
all thus. He finds many a
comfort in the new self reliance
Of his own actions. But fire.
quently the graduate has the
impression that his diploma is
a free passport to a life of lux
urious munifcence; that as soon
as that precious document is Sc
cured his future ease and wealth
is assured.
Fortunately conversation with
the ten young men who have
just taken their degrees at the
School of Mines, discloses no
such delusive dreams. They
all realize that the real struggle
has now just begun and they
are ready to meet it.

THE BAccALAuREATE SERMON.
The first Of the series of grad
uation exercises took place at
the Congregational church Sun
day morning. The occasion was
the preaching Of the Baccalaur-
cate sermon by the Rev. S. G..
Butcher. Almost the entire
student body and faculty we're
present to listen to the inspiring
eloquence Of the morning ser
mon. Rev. Butcher chose for
his subject the words "What's

to ono who did not hear the
mastery discourse which it in
troduced might think it rather
eccentric, such was by
no means the case, and we

The church was beautifully
decorated with the gold and sill
yer Of the School Of Mines,
which harmonized inspiringly
with the various vocal and in

sic consisted of an anthem, a
duet, by Mesdames, H. w.

MINING ENGINEER NIECE
MENT.
The browning event of the
week occurred Wednesday even
ing, when the degree of Bache-
lor of Science in Mining Engi-
neerlng was conferred upon the
graduates.
AS on Monday evening the
house was crowded to its ut
most capacity. Everywhere in
the decorations the gold and
silver-colors dear to the heart
Of every School of Mines boy
we're in evidence. The stage
was a marve! of beauty and
taste in the decorative art.
Huge banks of snowballs inter-
woven about the stage front,
lent tone to the clusters of lux
uriant ported ferns in the fore
ground. From above the CEN
ter of the stage fell the soft
glow of several oriental lights,
whose brilliance played irredes-
cent colors upon the words
"class of 'O6" hung in the back
ground with it's TANKS of Amer
lean flags.
Seated on the stage were the
graduating class, Hon. w. l..
Stewart, DR.. Fulton and the
other members of the faculty.
After the orchestra had render
ed a pleasing and tuneful little
overture, the invocation was
made by Rev. FIR. Straeten.
In a few we'll chosen words he
asked that the blessing of the
Lord of Hosts might rest upon
the graduates and bless them in
their new life.
Following this was the "Bri-
dial Roses" charmingly played
by the orchestra. DR.. Fulton
then introduced the speaker of
the evening, Hon. Wesley A.
Stewart, Of Deadwood. Mr..
Stewart is a very pleasant and
impressive speaker, whose elo-
quence lies not so much in ges-
ticulation or flowery mode Of ex-
preston as IN his evident sin
certify. He brought out two
very excellent points in his adj

Above the elbow the sleeves are
large leg O. mutton in shape, gathered
into the shoulders, and at the elbows
with shocking, in tiny tucks, or with
shirring. The sleeves alone give these
waists a smart and dressy effect that
is lacking with most such patterns,
and will make them as appropriate for
afternoon wear as for street use.
A model that will doubtless be a
favorite with young girls has a strip
of lace down the front plat, with a
piece at either cuff. These touches of
white give pretty, fresh, and youth
full appearance to even black waists
that will be readily adopted by ma
irons and those who think that plain
black is too severe.

STYLES in FAVOR.
GARMENTS AND MATERIALS FOR
THE FALL.
Tailored Shirt Waists in Silk Have
the Popular Fancy-Many New
Ideas Will Mark the
Coming Season.

Tailored shirt waists in silk will be
smart for street wear this fall. And
if advance fashions are followed lin
gerie waists will become practically
obsolete, except for use in the house,
for in the best shops hand embroid-
cred and lace trimmed linen and lawn
ones are now sold only for immediate
wear, for already the stylish new de-
signs in silk have become favorites.
These tailored silk waists are not
severely plain, as the word tailored"
implies, at least those that are fash
ionable now, for though simply made
they are quite ornate, being trimmed
with fittings of the materials Of which
they are fashioned, and with buttons,
either covered with silk to match, a
contrasting shade, or with ones that
give brightness that is a new de-
parture with the regulation shirt waist
patterns.
Tucks and plaits are characteristic
of these waists, and unless there are
a series of three or four fine pintucks
in the back or front, or two or three
plaits, half inch size, in semi-fitting
back and a loose front, the models
will lack the stamp Of fashion that
is essential for an up-to-date woman
nowadays.
The sleeves, too, unlike those in the
average shirt waist, are dressy. They
are tight fitting from the waist to the
elbow, and plain or with small tucks
or plaits. Some of them are fastened
on the underside with ti,sy pearl but
tons or those in bright gilt or imita-
ton silver to match the ones used on
the waist.

"Iwas under the treatment of several
different physicians but they all failed
to do me any good. After suffering for
two years learned from an Arkansas
