The Costume Idea IN
Fashion This Season
The Fashionable Os-
trict and Marabout :
Furs and Fur Fabrics.

1T Isn't my tailored suit nor my dressy
gowns that put wrinkles in my brow this
season, but 1t is those accessories which
one absolutely must have-cannot do

fashionaby gowncd."
Just scrap of n fashionable womans
conversation, but thought echoed in
many feminine minds this season. Never
before has woman's costulning depended
so much upon accessories. and never have
fashions rules regarding accessories been
so stringent. To be up-to-the minute
means that ones purse strings must be
ever open, and to keep up the pace which
the birth Of novelties ever demands
means an unlimited amount of money and
no conscience az 10 Its use.
Costume Accessories.

The reputation OF Amarillo as a

THE APPROVAL OF THE PEOPLE

The Daily Panhandle Is demo-
cratic paper. 1t is democratic in
the broad sense of the word, the rule
OF the majority 1t believes that the
majority should rule, and believes
in all questions being submitted to
the masses TOR their determination.
It is a believer in the initiative and
referendum, giving the people, who
pay the bills for the government
the say as to what that gov
eminent should be. II Is
therefore pleased with the re-
suit OF Thursdays election on the
telephone franchise, sahG that the
city council met last evening and
granted to the company whose pro-
posed franchise the people adopted
by such a large majority at the polls
the franchise for a telephone service
in this city for the next twenty-five
years.
The editor of the Panhandle some
time ago had some criticisms to
make OF the service given to the
people By the Water Works Co., for
which he was assaulted Since that
time he has received the personal APP
proval OF most OF the best citizens
OF the city, on his editorials, and
has been told that he was right, and
that they we're pleased that there
was n newspaper in the city which
had the sand to refer to public ser
vice corporations as they deserved,
commencing our article which caus-
cd the assault on the editor and his
later articles He has been told by
men closely connected with the in
terests he referred to, that he was
right, and while they deplored the
assault, they approved rthe articles
which provoked the assault, and the
articles which followed, and told the
editor that he was not much out Of
the way in any statement he had
made.
These references are only made to
show that we have the masses of
the people with us, in our efforts
to have public service corporations
give to the city a proper service.

THE MAYORS ARE COMING.

On Friday and Saturday Of this
week, the mayors Of Texas will be
the guests of Amarillo, The meet
ing OF the Mayors Association was
invited to come to this city by Mayor
Miller, backed by Commercial club,
The Commercial club is not as
strongly in evidence at this time as
it should be, and but little is being
done by that organization to arrange
for the entertainment of the conven-
ton. In Consequence, Mayor Miller
called a meeting of the council and
city officers for this afternoon, to
arrange for committees to properly
look after the entertainment of the

work with the horse hide to other
sites but the possibility for such a
game OF catch 10 one not offered In
many Texas towns and is one Of
which Amarillo may properly be
proud.
The fact that four OF the eight
congregations IN Amarillo witch own
buildings are adding 20 the institu-
tions OF the city on such an extensive
scale is a substantial evidence OF the
character Of Panhandle citizenship,
Visitors In Panhandle towns often
remark on the large proportion Of
business men who are regular at
tendants on church services, The
number and quality Of the church
buildings In any Panhandle town
prove that the people OF the com
munity are liberal sharers of their
prosperity In tho building Of
churches, Churches are vital forces
in the upbullding OF this big plains
country and of that fact the men
and women who are building the
towns show by their work their full
and active appreciation.

pie, and whenever they are trifled

will be heard from.

HAS MAN CONQUERED?

With the same technical exaotness
that would mark a description Of a
new locomotive or electric trans
former. Mr.. Walter Wellman, in this
months McClure's, proceeds to tell
OF the making and equipment of his
alrship In which crew consisting Of
few picked men will embark within
the next few weeks for voyage
through the air Of hundreds Of miles.
Not only is this voyage through the
air to be longer than any yet at
tempted but Il Is to be over country
unknown, nnnhabited and which has
proven inaccessible to all the daring
spirits who have attempted hereto
fore to reach the pole, But Wellman
calmly gives the facts about his
camp and preparations and figures
his voyage down to an exactness that
resembles a schedule
Has man at last conquered space
OF are Wellman and his companions
to be The latest victims OF the two
quests which have been taking the
lives OF adventurous spirits for cen
turtles? Wellman Is not an ordinary
dreamer and his plan and his ma
chine are the results Of the coolest
scientific research and the highest
technical and mechanical skill. Per-
haps wellman is to accomplish the
first considerable navigation OF the
air and at the same time to be the
first to reach the coveted goal Of
all Arctic explorers, that Intangible
point OF absolute north where all
,s.her directions are south, but he
has. ut started yet--and he has not
returned.

1t IS understood that representa-
tives of the government were in
Amarillo Saturday relative to the flu
ture permanent location of the gov
ernmental experimental station. That
they were offered 100 acres by Mr.
Bush, OF Chicago, about three miles
from the city on the new Rock Island
grade west of the city, and were sat
isfied with it., provided the city
would raise $4,000 to defray the eX-
pense of removal of the farm from
the present location, and establish
ment at the new place. Part OF the
money required has been already
subscribed and there ought to be no
doubt about the raising of this
amount. The representatives OF the
government were in Dalhart today,
which wants this experimental farm,
and has offered the land and $4,000
to defray expenses of removal. How
ever, If Amarillo raises the desired
amount the station will remain here,
and there should be no doubt Of 1t
being easily raised.

THE PEOPLE HEARD FROM.

..N. 'H T|
The election on the telephone
franchise occurred yesterday, and
resulted IN an overwhelming victory
for the opponents to granting a fran.
chise to the old company now doing
business IN the city, and in favor
Of granting a franchise to Davenport
& Co.. the new applicants for the
franchise.
The editor Of the Panhandle was
not satisfied with either of the fran.
chlses, as grant for twenty years
In the future, and so stated in his
columns, but he was not voter
and had no hand in determining the
result. He did not use the columns
Of his paper for or against the new
applicants, orthe Old company, but
making a nlain statement Of the sit
uatlon, opened his columns to both
parties TO the controversy, leaving
the determination Of which company
should be granted the franchise to
the voters, nnlnfluenced by any ed
ltorial in these columns, and being
willing 10 let the pepple speak in the
matter and abide the result.
The people have spoken, and in
the message their silently deposited
ballots speaks to the public service
corporations there IS lesslon which
we wish at this time to emphasize.
The service Of the old company
has been poor, and when complaint
was made, II is said that the man.

endorsement of Davenport & Co.,

The Daily Panhandle pays its com
pliments to the thriving, beautiful
and enterprising little city of the
South Central Plains, Plainview, to-
day. The first time the editor has
poked his nose out of Amarillo since
coming to the Panhandle last No
vember, was his trip to Plainview,
and his meeting with the newspaper
men of this portion of Texas. He
enjoyed his recreation, his visit with
the editors, and his royal treatment
by the citizens of Plainview, and he
wishes to take off his hat to the cit
liens of that enterprising city, as
the most royal entertainers he has
ever met. If his future visits to
other Texas cities proves that all
cities of the Lone Star state are peo-
pied with the same class as Amarillo
and Plainview, Texas and the Pan
handle may yet claim him as a per-
manent resident.

tho appearance and disposition OF many
women. The freshness, the charm, the

OF tho charming maiden. There are two
reasons for this change, ignorance and
neglect Few young women appreciate
the shock 10 the system through tho
change which comes with marriage and
motherhood. Many neglect to deal with
the unpleasant pelvic drains and weak
