creating an impression OF dignity and
charm which are. after all. the chief
requisites 20 the successful wearing Of
these gowns.
It's rather a Ear CRY from classic
draperies 10 French hats. But did you
ever see anything more gratifying to
the eye OF good taste than the hats
which Tne mid-winter season has
brough-. forth?
The hats entirely OF tulle-usually
black nule, without extra, trimming,
only a mass OF folds Of this airy fab
ric-are 9sstredly the work Of a real
artist hard. For only an eye with an
inborn genius for line and a hand
skillful enough to do the eyes bidding
could evolve these things OF such de-
ceptive-Iooking simplicity.
The hat itself is broad ana fat, made
OF tulle or OF satin-black. Of course
And on Il, quite concealing the crown,
IS uaassed folds and folds Of tulle.
Not the stir, wired bows OF the early
season. but tulie turned softly back
and forth and caught here and there
iuvisibly. But while an unskillful hand
might make a mass Of this without
form or chic, the clever millineT
evolves a thing OF perfect lines and
becomingness.
The snowy little toques Of soft white
fox fur seem the personifcation Of
winter. and are most kind 20 youthful
faces. For trimming they have a gay
" nodding plume OF some crushed
pink roses ana a duh pink ribbon
apparently pulled through the hat and
ending n q smart little bow at the
opposite side from the rose. One fox

glossy leaves tucked INTO the fur at
the side. II made a striking trimming

that the Ely route will be taken on
account of the bad condition of the
Reno roads.
The racers are one American, three
French, one German and one Italian

Chicago at noon Monday.
Ii the racers come this way the

all carry stocks of provisions, camp

the journey.
According to changes in the sched-
ule, rendered necessary by shifting
weather, it is expected that the cars
will pass through here about the last
of next week. as they will be due in
San Francisco about March 6.
Telegraphic advices as to the ex-

Because of the fact that there are
a number Of the patrons of the sub
urban trains who work at smelter
and concentrator on Sundays as they
do on other days and likewise find 1t
equally necessary to travel between
their homes in Ely City and Ely and
their work on that day, General Pas
senger Agent Toll of the Nevada
Northern yesterday announced that
decision had been reached to make
the train service on Sundays the
same as that on week days. This
rule will he effective tomorrow, with
addition of the special train service
which has heretofore prevailed on
Sundays. After tomorrow, however,
this special Sunday service will be
discontinued and only the regular
week day trains operated on that
day.
The special Sunday trains in con-
nection with the regular week day
trains which will operate tomorrow
will give everybody a chance to go to
see the smelter and concentrator and
to spend as much of the day sight

Involved in Tragedy

One of the most tragic and like
wise one of the most mysterious
cases ever known in Nevada is that
in Lincoln county. Sheriff Phil Smith
being held for the murder of his
brother John Smith. The sheriff has
been recognized to the grand jury
without bail and that body will be-
gin the investigation of the case
within few days.
The entire case is shrouded in
mystery and the sheriff, held for tra-
tricide. asks for the fullest and most
complete investigation. John Smith
received the bullet wound which re-
suited in his death last December, the
tragedy occurring one evening while
at the home of his twi brother,
Sheriff Phil Smith at Caliente. Il

Mrs Grace Whiteley has brought ac-
tion in the district court against her
husband, Arthur II. Whiteley, asking
for divorce and such other remedies

iff alleges that her husband. losing
his temper, slapped her, struck her,
and spat in her face. His temper she
alleges is uncomfortable and while
in fits of passion he is liable to do
anything to her.
Plaintiff was before her marriage
Miss Bassett, daughter of the late
county commissioner W. r. Bassett.
1t has bene publicly rumored for
some time that the married life of
the couple was not as felicitous as
might be.

P|OCHE SHERIFF CHARGED
WITH BROTHERS. DEATH

at the door of the home and at the
time it was announced that a thug
looking for the sheriff had mistaken
the brother for him and fired the
shot which afterwards caused death.
Later both brothers denied the state
ment and short time before his
death the victim of the tragedy stat
ed that he had dropped his revolver
and the weapon exploded. But, dur
ing the several weeks he lived after
the shooting, it is claimed that he
told different version of the affair
and mentioned a quarrel with his
brother and also that his brothes was
responsible. The brother denies that
he is in any way responsible and says
he wants the fullest investigation of
the facts.
Meanwhile the sheriff is in jail at
Phoebe charged with the murder of
his brother and within a short time
the grand jury will begin the investi-
cation of the case.
Sheriff Smith is we'll known in this
district and to old time residents of
the state generally. At the time of
the shooting, as stated above. it was
thought that the bullel was intended
for him and a great deal of laudatory
matter was printed in connection
with his excellent record in the de-
lection of criminals and the enforce
ment of the laws of the state.
