who have been forming a line at the
back entrance Of the third floor of the

one homestead applications had been
made.

opening Of sections l. 2. 3, 4. s, 6. 8, 9.

OF is Of township ~, range four west.
The land is in the northern part of
Latah county four miles north of
Princeton. Every one of the home-
steaders made a settlers affidavit
which gives them prior right over the
state Some Of them have lived on the
land as long as II years. while many
have been there over two years.
The line commenced forming July 1
at the land office door, but the appli-
cants were Immediately given notice
that they would not be allowed in the
block and the line moved to the back
entrance. The line was small till yes
terday afternoon when many recruits
came and remained over night.
Out OF the forty-one applications
there are but two conflicts.
An unusual feature Of the days

Furs and Fur-Lined Coats.

Our great grandmothers wore "book
muslins" in mId-winter and over them
wadded pelisses, their modish de-
scendants wear as thin materials only
prettier in wave and long coats of fur
or cloth or silk with fur Innings which
protect the wearer effectuslly however
low the temperature. These hand
some fur garments are besides so be-
coming and durable, and give such an
air of elegance and distinction when
thrown back at the theatre, concert or
other resort, that no article of woman's
dress is more satisfactory as ali invest
ment.
Our coolest weather, coming now as
usual after the first of January, rem
ders the question of furs more inter-
esting than even earlier in the season.
From custom, chiefly however, reduc-
tions begin and buyers hasten to well
come G. G. Shayne's inaugural. For
two or three seasons past, a special dis
count has been allowed on each kind
of fur. The prestige of fine fur is equal
to that of diamonds; especially if pur-
chased from dealer whose name is a
guarantee.
