PORTLAND TOUGH STOLE
TRUNK FROM STATION

Some Of the toughs who have been
laying around Portland for the last
few days, Tuesday night stole trunk
from the Rio Grande station platform
and carried it to the river where it
was broken open and the contents
rifed. The owner Of the trunk was
young woman coming from the East

Tho trunk arrived on train No. .
Tuesday evening and the owner came
through on the Santa Fe yesterday

When the theft WAS disco, cred there
was considerable appre ehension on the
part Of the Atkinsons as they feared
that the young woman had been way
laid and killed A search of the
banks Of the river was instituted, but
these fears were dispelled when she
came in on the Santa Fe train tho
next day. When the thief opened the
trunks several letters written by Mrs.
Atkinson to the girl fell to the
ground.

NATATOR|uM
TO Be BUILT
NEAR CITY

Florence is to have fifteen acre
parK planted to grass and set to beau
tiful shade trees and a large natato-
rum If the operations of John A. Pat.
terson, ]. J. Hessick and George Co.
lumbia, three miles east Of this CITY
are successful. These gentlemen have
bought eighty acres Of land just south
Of the Rocky Mountain pumping sta
ton, or about north of Kendrick
mountain and are drilling we'll for
artesian water which they expect to
encounter in the Dakota sand at
depth Of 1 200 feet.
The we'll was started the early part
Of the week and is making good head.
way. The hole is twenty -four inches
in diameter, being the largest ever
drilled in Fremont county. This lie
done so that after the mineral water
is struck, the hole can be concrete
lined to depth of 100 feet so that
the mineralized water will not eat
away the pipe and cave the hole.
After the water is struck, which
will be the latter part Of next month,
the company will exoavate large
hole which will be concrete lined and
filled with water for a swimming pool.
The dimensions of the hole have not
been decided as yet. Fifteen acres
have been laid aside for parK purposes
and this will be planted to grass and
trees this year. Not all the park
will be planted to trees this spring,
but at least five acres will.
The improvement plans Of the
company depends entirely on whether
water is struck or not. They expect
to put in swimming pool as large
as the one near Canon and have it in
operation by the opening of the swim
ming pool season. The remaining
portion Of the LAID will be used for
farming purposes II there Is enough
W ater for it. The company expects
to draw considerable business from
this city. the coal camps and the
two cement towns this summer.
Last year, there being no other
place to go. hundreds of Floren-
tines were allured to Canon on Sun
days and in the evenings by the
attractions at the swimming pool.
That the company will strike water
there appears to be little doubt as
the we'll is being drilled in what is
believed to be- the heart Of the soda
water zone. I here are wells north,
east and south OF the new we'll. The
place is about midway between here
and Portland and is convenient
for the camp people. After the water
Is struck 1t is probable stock COM
pany will be organized and the resort
launched on bigger scale than here
suggested.

SEPARATE COATS
LIGHT MATERIALS
ARE NOW IN ORDER

Separate coats, less warm and heavy
than those of the winter season but
made upon similar lines, are appearing
with the southern models, and among
the prettiest of these are loose three
quarter or seven-eighth coats Of heavy
crepe de chine handsomely embroid-
cred or lace trimmed.
One perfectly severe coat and skirt
OF white serge has plated skirt and
smoker coat whose lapels are faced
smoothly with heavy white silk. A
folded waistcoat, crossing in surplice
fashion and held by two big silk.
covered buttons, is of the silk, and the
blouse belonging to the costume is of
finest batiste, hand embroidered, val
enciennes frilled, and, with utter disre-
gard to the usual laws concerning
lingerie blouses, trimmed in bands and
buttons of the while silk.
The lingerie dress is a decorative
part OF the gown collection of the
woman who, firing of bleak winter,
goes to meet the spring in company
with many members of the smart set,
Rumor has 1t that the fascinating lit
tie princess dress with square, v or
round neck and guiltless of sleeves,
will prove strong rival of the dainty
frock of white, blue or pink batiste
elaborately trimmed with valen-
ciennes, cluny or mechlin lace COM
bined with real or good machine en-
broideries. In all probability r!h
fashions will have a goodly degree of
success.

TURBANS OF PURPLE
WITH BLACK WINGS
STYLISH AND SMART

Stiff little turbans in purple, with
large black wings, are stylish, and are
worn as frequently with suits of. navy
blue as with black. Indeed, the day of
the suit hat seems past, and, while for
econOmy's sake somber.colored suit
is chosen, and must last two seasons,
the style in hats changes so radically
that even the most hardened econo.

Therefore, all ones light-hearted-
ness can safely be expressed in friv-
olous headgear without one prick
from a penny-saving conscience.
For those who have reached the
toque age, which cannot be defined
by years, there are some happy
thoughts. They have not been over
looked by the purple wave, and can find
"just what they want" in velvet of this
shade, trimmed with jet, or, still more
charming, in purple pansies.
One such toque had the entire crown
and band across the front, the right
side and back covered with pansies set
close together without foliage, and on
the left side dark purple velvet bow
fastening in place fancy gonna in
gray and purple.

Gold MuH Chains.

Mum chains are no longer worn
around the neck, as they were in for
mer times. Instead, they are slung
from one wrist.
All the muffs sold this year have a
silk cord loop in one end, of such
length that it slips over the arm and
yet allows the hand to be deeply bur.
led in the mum. This does for the
woman who Is not luxurious She who IS

links, sometimes jeweled, sometimes
firmly attached to the muff by a
small ring and sewn inside of the lat

clasp which can be attached to the
hand-warmer at moments notice.
When opening her purse or other

on this cord or golden support, which
is Of length sufficient to allow the
free use of the hands.

Gelatin for Curlinu Hair.

No preparation can possibly give Z
permanent curl to the hair. Many
things used for curling are very harm
full. One having some value and quite
without injurious qualities is a solu-
tion Of gelatin. But its employment
demands care and patience. A strong
solution of gelatin should be made
with boiling water. In fact, as much
gelatin should be dissolved as the
water will take up. This solution is
to be strained while very hot. Now
glycerine equal in quantity to the So
luton must be stirred in. The mix
ture should be poured into a jar with a
wide mouth. It will set a thick Jelly.
At night dissolve one teaspoonful in a
wineglassful of warm water, and ap-
ply to the head. Comb the hair well.
In the morning run a wetted comb
