Freewater, Feb. 17.-Freewater's
first market day, which was held
here Saturday, proved to be a great
success. Many of the farmers were
here from the surrounding country,
and much stuff was sold. Farm stuff
of various kinds were disposed of, in
cluding poultry, horses and cattle,
farm implements, etc. Several hum
dred dollars was realized by the sale,
and it is the intention of the parties
promoting the sale to conduct them
here often in the future.
A heavy shower of rain fell here
yesterday, and for a time the weather
acted very much more like April than
February.
There is not as much sickness here
as there was a few weeks ago, though
there are still a number OF cases of
grip.
Rev. Robert Hadley. who has been

Hermiston, Feb. 17.--As a result OF
an experimental run of water through
the feed canal into the Cold Springs
reservoir, water is now backed into
the big basin of the Umatilla project,
forming a good sized pond 10 feet
deep. Water was backed into the
reservoir to give the engineers assur-
ance of a supply of water for pud-
ding the earth used in the construc-
| tion of the big dam. With favorable
weather the engineers expect to turn
water through the main canal over
the drop and into the reservoir in
two or three weeks.
Concrete work is continuing on the
waste way from. the reservoir to the
canyon below. All over the project
forces of men are building structures
OF concrete. Within the next few
weeks the engineers predict that they

Arranging Wells on
Hats in the New STYLE

Wells are now most important part
of well dressed woman's costume, and
their influence for becoming or unat-
tractive effect has SO impressed fashion
authorities that clearly defined rules gov

be worn and their design have been is
sued for the winter season of 10000.
The first great rule is that they shall be
wrinkleless over the face. Indeed, the
less fullness there is over the hat brim
the better, but under no consideration
shall there be a line over the face.
The second rule is that the covering
shall not be loose and baggy at the bot
TOM for unless the fit is close, but not
tight, over the chin and mouth, the final
effec. will be spoiled.

all wells must now meet down the back,
from brim to neck. but 1 wonder how
many are aware how seldom they accom-
plish this? 1t is not enough to hold down
the two edges with pin. and neither Is it
correct that the pin shall be half way
between hat and neck. The fastening, a
long bar, as fancy as one chooses. must
not be more than an inch above the neck,
and the veil edges must meet.
The most successful manner of achiey-
ing this style of wearing a veil begins by
putting a knot in the selvage in the mid
die of the upper edge. This gives fullness
to prevent the nose from being f1attened.
This edge should then be adjusted to the
brim to bring the lower edge directly bee

uNOSlErS FLYING MACHINE
OKLAHOMA INVENTOR CALLS II
GREAT AMERICAN EAGLE"
Declares That He Has It Under
Perfect Control-Built
Like q Bird.

w. D. Lindsey of Oklahoma has ar
rived in Washington with flying ma
chine. He says it is a monoplane. He
has made application for patent upon
the machine, which he calls the Great
American Eagle" According to the in
ventor, the machine is built in the form
of great bird, with head. tail and wings.
It is operated by gasoline. He hopes to
procure a nineteen-horsepower engine
similar to that used by A. NJ. Herring.
The seat for the driver is in the central
part Of the machine. Immediately under

are two five-foot propellers. one on each

both, according to the inventor, may be
operated at the same time, together or in
opposite directions, and at any interme-
date angle. while the engine is running
at full speed.
Mr. Lindsey has so much confidence in
his new machine that he declares he car

SCHOOL FROCKS OF LARGE
PLAIDS ARE POPULAR NOW

Plaids for school wear are smart this
season, and. strange to state. those OF
large patterns are more in vogue than
the small designs. AS rule the large
ones are becoming to all types of young
girls, but there are certain little figures
for which these combinations must not
be chosen.
For example, a girl who is unusually
fat will look positively wooden in a large
square. and small ones or stripes are best
for her. Any other figure, however. is
generally set off by the striking color
scheme.
AS to the styles for garments. long.
straight lines are smartest for little folk,
as they are for their elders, sand rarely
does one see a waist effect even simu-
lated. From shoulder to hem the line is
unbroken, and generally there is a sug-
gestion of Russian blouse.
A very serviceable model for a plaid

ing with rather large pearl buttons, OF
which there are two rows down the

in the front two. At the neck there is

coming below the dress sleeves, that are
loose and fiaring. and stop at the elbow.
A wide sailor collar Of cloth, of shade
like one of the light ones in the plaid,
finishes the frock. There Is also a loose.
narrow leather belt that passes under
the pleats.
Guimpes in school dresses may be re-
garded as a permanency, for they are so
practical; though laundry bills may be
a trifle increased by their use.
In addition to the fresh appearance
these give they make the frock more
serviceable by saving wear on the
sleeves. Any mother whose child has
been to school for even a year knows, to
her sorrow, that the first part of dress
to wear Is the right sleeve. along the
seam, where constant rubbing on a
desk makes it thin. Naturally, guimpe
sleeve does not go through SO quickly,
and when it does the cost Of replacing
1t Is not SO. great.
Another wardrobe innovation is the
boomers used instead of petticoat. There
is pair to match each dress, and they
are worn. not, as might be thought,
from motives of economy in the laun-
dry, but that children may be allowed
more freedom Of action without skirts
flying over their heads. When made of
the same material as the dress they are
wholly inconspicuous and not uncom-
Portable.

the fancy bar is to go and the lower part
Of the veil may be considered adjusted.
The reason for this is that in this way
the fullness can be disposed of around the
hat. Therefore it remains to adjust the
webbing as each bonnet requires. There
must be plenty of pins used and always
that part over the face must be kept
smooth.
AS for the yelling. there is an endless
variety Of 1t. Dotted brussels can no
longer be considered smart, because it is
worn too much. Many fancy mesh and
dotted tissues, some of them very expen-
sive, are fashionable. Closely dotted
chenille yelling is always good form, for
it's very high price keeps it exclusive.
Those women who cannot afford it may
console themselves by the thought that
nothing is quite so bad for the eyes and
that it is becoming only to persons of
pronounced coloring, such as blondes or
brunettes.

TEST HUNTERS LAW.
Attorney General Sues WyandOtte
Clerk to Recover Fees.

Attorney General Fred S. Jackson filed
mandamuS proceedings in the supreme
court against F. NJ. Holcomb, county clerk
of Wyandotte county, today for the pur-
pose of compelling that official to turn
$1,02S25 collected as fees for hunting
licenses over to the state. There has been
a question in the minds of the county
clerks of the state since the hunting
license law went into effect to whether
the state is entitled to the entire sum col
lected.
Many of them have held that as the issu-
ing a license consumes considerable time
which must be supplied by the county
clerk that the office is entitled to a fee
of % cents for services. Although the
matter has been thoroughly discussed at
various times no action has been taken
by the clerks to bring about a test case.
unless the refusal of the county clerk of
Wyandotte county can be so construed.
A meeting of the county clerks of the
state was held at Hutchinson last week
and considerable secret work and dis
cussion was INDUCED in by the members
of the organization and it may be that the
action of Mr.. Holconlb is taken for the
purpose of bringing about a test case.
The fees which are collected for hunting
licenses are turned into the state treasury
and used to defraY the expenses of the
state game warden and his department.
