broidery may be used thereon. Some
color must be introduced either In tho
lining. which shows through a wolfe or
chiffon dress skirt, In the bands Of the
sleeves or in the belt. Sometimes this
bit of color is used in ribbon bands
which extend across the corner OF the
yoke of the dress. One gown OF the kind
was made Of black crepe de chine. tho
only touch of color being two pieces Of
soft taffeta ribbon. one Of brown and
the other of palest sage green. laid In

black lace yoke.
Another black dress OF chiffon cloth

Mohair Petticoats

THIRST it was reported that taftets
r. might be rubberized; then pongeo
took kindly to the process. and
now mohair has become water and dirt
proof. This last is a great acQuisi-
ton to enthusiastic motorists. for the
material Is light and cool. and at the
same time 1t wears like wire. Ponges
and silk may hold their places In the
esteem OF womankind for raincoats to
be worn to social functions. but for
driving. automobiling and coaching mo-
hair will be found superior.
The prettiest coats are Of white. and
many are made in models so charming
that no one but the initiated would sus-
pect them of being any more useful in q
storm than a light and lacy opera coat.

FOR THE JOKE NOW.

Colorado has Its ear to the ground.
listening closely for more. Grand
Junction has no right to be exciting
US this way unless It has the goods
to deliver. 1t began 1t last Sunday
with q story in The Republican re-
porting that some young men out
hunting had brought into town spec
linens Of rock from "Nothoroughfare
Canon" running $40 a pound in gold
1t has been keeping it MP with other
items to the same effect; unless 1t is
going to make Colorado that Christ
mas present of a new gold camp. 1t
has just got to quit that kind of talk.
We are In no humor to be joked with
on any such subject.
That 10 the way to start; somebody
finds bit of rock, you know; some
body else assays 1t; they get to rum
ming in that direction, putting up
tents and kicking the snow off the
ground to find lodges OF almost pure
gold sticking out. Grand Junction
has had them doing all those things.
and that, too, right at the opening of
new year. when that kind of talk
thrills with keener tingle than at
any time. Now, the Peach OF Town
had better be coming through right
OF 1t IL going to go hard with 1t.
"Nothoroughfare canon" sounds
good. That is the very sort of thing
with which prospectors take especial
delight in having fun. Give a count
ry an impossible name and watch the
mine makers give it the laugh! There
was Cripple Creek; cripple 1t might
have been. but the state leaned on 1t
good and hard for several years. and
It walked down the corridors of time
with all the virlity of a strong man
who runs q race. "Nothoroughfare.'
Is it? Call 1t that II you will, but II
there is any gold there worth giving
the canon a place on the map, take
our word for 1t, 1t will not be six
months before at least one railroad
has cut that canon into mincement

to run Pullmans: In two weeks there
would be Main street that you could
scoot autos along. Bennett or Har-
rison avenue as level as dancing

enough for $4,000 people to use in

1t is there; not endorsing any sight

wishing that 1t might turn out to be
one-tenth as good an attraction as
