NEW YORK LETTER.
Cretonne the Latest Material for
Slips, Coats, Parasols and Hats
Something Quite New in Lingerie
Hats-Poppy-Reds now Popular
skeleton Summer Goats Of Ribbon.
By MONS. GENE DE PONTIAC.

There Is tremendous variety IN
the colors introduced this season, and
new and wonderful combinations
and effects may be arrived at. A
costume may be made or married by
its color scheme and some Of the
most impossible-seeming combine
tons are the most successful when :.
skilfully handled. Bright-colored
Innings and facings in dark or
black coat may transform the whole,
effect, and for transparent gowns 1t
is much the mode for the lining to
be of an entirely different shade
pale grey over yellow, mauve over
blue, blue over green--while change
able taffeta under wolfe makes an
effective shading.
A new use for large-Howered Gre
tonne is to make Of 1t a. slip for
wearing under a gown of transpar-.
ent material. Some Of the effects are
really beautiful, the pronounced de-
signs and colorings of the cretonne
dulled and blurrd by the outer robe
of silk wolfe or chiffon. The cretonne
itself is used for trimming about the.
guimpe for the whole
sleeve as we'll.
The cretonne coat is much worn
abroad, not only with lingerie frocks
for country wear, for which it would
seem to be best suited, but with silk
or wool gowns for afternoon func-
lions. Less conspicuous and equal
ly smart is the coat of plain linen,
with waistcoat, collar-facing and
cuffs of cretonne or chintz.. Dull
green or blue, mahogany or rose lin
en- coats, combined in this way with
material figured in dull, soft tones,
are charming with plain skirts OF
the linen, or with lingerie, silk or
wool frocks. Parasols and hats en-
suite are either entirely Of the Gre
tonne or trimmed with 1t. The Gre
tonne hats are usually of the Char
lotte order, which is far more popu-
lar abroad thar it is here, finished
with an immense bow of ribbon.
Fitzgerald enterprise. (Fitzgerald, Ga.) 1895-1912, 1908-06-18

Aside from hats and parasols, Gre
tonne figures largely in accessories
in belts and brass-mounted hand
bags, Waistcoats, collars and cuffs
and even as buckles on white shoes.
Hand-printed linens are used in the
same way and are equally effective
and less snowy.
The newest lingerie hat is quite
unlike the soft mob-cap affair hith-
erto seen and is made of linen, hand
embroidered and lace-medallioned,
stretched smoothly over shape Of
the rolling sailor variety, with
rather high crown. The brim is
faced with Panama straw, sometimes
in a natural tone, often In some light
color-blue or lavender-in which
case the ribbon trimming matches
the facing. Bingham or chambray,
in plain shades and faced with straw.
makes gay and picturesque little
hats for country wear, trimmed with
scarves to match the facings.
Cerise, which was so much seen
on early spring hats, appears less
and less-not altogether, 1t would
seem, because it Is too warm a color,
for its place has been to large ex-
tent taken by poppy reds, which are
exceedingly popular for midsummer
hats, alike in the gorgeous flower it.
self, in straw and in tulle for whole
hats. Green also is coming much
to the fore In millinery as the sea-
son advances.
Goats made of ribbon are the very
newest thing. Flowered ribbon, ten
or twelve inches wide two: widths In
the back and one on each side of the
front, passes over the shoulders
without seams, Is joined together in
the back and hangs perfectly straight
to the knees. The garment is sleeve
less, Joined together under the arms
by narrow straps and trimmed about
the edge with silk bands or silk ball
trimming. Worn over a gown Of
sheer soft material and harmonizing
solid color the effect is charming.
Many of the French tailored linen
suits are finished with band Of lin
en- in Persian colorings at the foot
OF the skirt. With bands of large
sized spots finish some Of the new
EkaS&e.

Theysworked and hoped for years
without much realization of re-
suits. They voted for decades
knowing they faced defeat in each
campaign but confident of ultimatc
victory, That the seed they sowed
did not fall upon barren ground
iS Rttested by the increased public
sentiment in their favor. 1t is folly
for their opponents to assert that
the establishment of prohibition
increases consumption of liquor. If
that assertion were correct those
who manufacture and sell liquor
would undonbtly favor prohibition.
The future ofprohibition is certain
ly more promising of ultimate sue
Gess than was the prospect of the
anti.slavery movement in the '40's
and SOS of the last century. No
constitutional provision stands in
the way, No political party, as a
party, dare oppose. All the great
religious bodies are distinctly more
favorable than they were to the
abolition of human slavery. The
recent action of railway companies
demanding elimination of employees
addicted to the use of alcoholic
stimulants, the ruling of similar
nature by important commercial
and manufacturing firms and cor
porations, the firmly fixed opinions
of managers and directors of fl

Files Suit
For Damages
Chris Peterson Says He Is
Injured For the Amount
of SIS, ,000.

4 L
Last Monday there was filed
in. the district court by Chris
Peterson, through his attorney,
IF. r. McNamee, a damage suit
for the sum of SIS, 900. 1t is al
legged in the complaint on file
that on the 10th day of April,
the defendant was in the en-
ploy of the Ohio-Kentucky Con.
M. Co., and while working on
an dpraise at some point between
the 300 and 400 levels, a cave in
occurred, in which Peterson sus-
timed injuries from which COM
plete recovery is doubtful.
CarelessneSs is claimed in not
having the ground timbered,
and other precautions observed
by the defendant company.
This case will undoubtedly come
up trial before the coming ses-
sion of the district court.

Phoebe Man
Wants the Place

In this issue can be found the
announcement of Judge John NJ.
Breeze, who desires the notnina-
ton of the republican party for
the office of district attorney for
Lincoln county. For some time
Mr.. Breeze has been giving his
action considerable careful at
tention, and two days ago he de-
cided to go in the race for the
nomination.
For Mr.. Breeze we will say
that he is fitted for the position
in every way; strong with his
republican friends, and endorsed
by many of the democratic lead
ers of the county, so what is to
hinder the coming convention
from giving him the nomination
on the ticket? ? Phoebe goes for
Mr.. Breeze.

Electric Lights
For PiOche

At the next meeting Of the
board Of county commissioners.
the application for q lighting
and power franchise will come
before them for consideration.
W. B. MacSherry is the mover
in this new enterprise. and ct
the present time. there is but
little doubt that the franchise
will be granted.
The plant will be erected at.
the old smelter site of the Ne
vada-Utah company below town.
Already applications are coming
in for lights and power service
and the necessary machinery
will be on the way from Los
Angeles as soon as the franchise
is granted. The county court
house, it is understood, is one of
the first buildings to have the
lights installed.
Much credit is due to Mr.. Mac
Sherry for the enterprise shown,
and from q financial standpoint
the venture cannot help being q
success. !.

Henry Lee For
The Recorder

We announce in the political
column this week the name of
Henry Lee, who will ask the
democrats in convention assem-
bled for the nomination to the
office of recorder and auditor.
We hardly deem it necessary
to tell our readers Henry's quail
fications. His administration of
affairs in the Office speak for the
manner in which he has served
the people of the county in the
past. The support given Henry
viii be a just reward for services
performed to all concerned.

New York Market News

The sensation of the week was
the failure of A. o. Brown &
Co., one of the largest, most act :
i've and most spectacular stock
brokerage houses in New York.
Brown & Co. had been operating
very heavily in the stock market.
On Saturday last their clearing
house sheet showed that their
firm had been responsible for
about two-thirds of the business
OF that day. and it was one of
the largest Saturdays in the his
tory of the stock exchange. The
failure of the firm seems to have
oeen due to tangled accounts and
an attempt to do "all the bust
ness in the world" rather to any
rise or fail in shares. Authori-
ties now seem to be pretty much
of the opinion that the Steel pool,
the Rock Island pool, the Stand
ard Oil party and other large in
terests have not been responsible
for the big plulnging transaction
of the last two weeks; but that
Brown & Co., and some of their
speculative customers have been
doing the damage. Lawson is
recognized as having been some
thing of a factor in the sharp
market movements that have
taken place, but it is generally
considered that he has not been
nearly so important factor as
the house of Brown.
Stocks were stronger after the
announcement of the failure,
which proved that the strong,
conservative financial interests

and will have a tendency to main

Sudden Death
of ]. B. Clark

Saddest in the extreme was
the death of ]. B. Clark, who
died at the Duckworth hospital
at 11:30 today.
Mr.. Clark had been i'll but two
days with a fever, but from the
first visit of DR.. Duckworth at
the home of the deceased, the
doctor had very little hope of his
recovery. Malignant typhoid
fever set in, and medical aid
could not save the life. He leaves
a grief-stricken wife and a child
about a year old.
Mr.. Clark came to Phoebe nine
months ago, and was, at the time
of his death, secretary Of the
local Miners Union No. 273. In
all his transactions with the or
ganlZed body, we venture TO say
that there was never a man more
respected, more loved and
thought of than j. B. Clark. He
was a great reader and a very
fluent speaker.
Mr.. Clark was a native of Mis-
sissippi and 90 years of age.
Funeral announcement will be
made later.
The RECORD expresses its
deepest sympathy to those left
behind, and the entire communi-
ty to a person joins with us.

Walsh Dies
of Injuries

Monday morning at 7::3O
o'clock, VIM. Walsh died at the
Duckworth hospital. Sunday
evening he became unconscious
and never recovered from that
state. Mr.. Walsh was the young
man that had been accidentally
injured by blast at the Ida May
mine last Friday. His injuries
did not appear fatal. but the
general shaking up he received,
completely wrecked the nervous
system.
The body was taken to Salt
Lake City for burial, on the
mornings train by his brother,
who had been in constant at
tendance since the accident.
The affair was sad in the ex-
treme and the Record extends
to those left to mourn his loss,
their deepest sympathy.

prosperity, stocks win reach
higher prices.
The excitement over Bay State
Gas has stated materially. It
will take a new advertising cam
paign by Lawson to develop q
new crop of purchasers.
The Goldfield market bids fair
to again dominate the curb.
Combination Fraction is strong
on the well authenticated report
that the company has opened up
its shoot of high-grade ore on
the 600 foot level. Most of the
buying orders are from the
camp, which is a good sign.
Goldfield Consolidated is again
soundly- -bottomed, this time ap-
parently around 6 1-2. Booth,
Atlanta, Kewanas and Red Hills
are most in demand among the
other stocks in the Goldfield list.
The developments of the first
new vein in the Esperanza have
been so satisfactory that the
stock has not only held its ad-
vance, but shows a tendency to
go still higher. AL Orc has
passed well above the seven dol
lar mark, and is strong. Kaffirs
are buoyant in London. Incl
dentally it may be remarked that
good South African shares are
considered giltedged securities
in London. This is noteworthy
in view of the fact that in New
York few banks viii accept min
ing securities as collateral. TIL,
railroad share market dominate
financial New York. The min
ing share market PRACTICAL.
dominates London. Herein il
the reason for the difference.
Copper stocks are strong, ant
the larger copper interests arr
very are very bullish on the flu
ture of the metal. Miami, which
is fast developing into one of tn,
greatest copper mines in thu
world, continues to be the one
best purchase among the copper
stocks.
The market situation is salts
factory. and is entirely favora
BILE to purchasers.

Register at Once.

Have you registered? This is
an important matter and every
voter in the county should see
that his name is placed on the
registration list in his precinct.
The state law is imperative that
voters must appear in person for
registration. No names will be
carried over from former lists.
The registration books will close

delay and ever voter should at
attend to this important matter
at once.

Game Laws
of Nevada

AS the sportsmen clean their
gun locks and shine the. barrels
IN preparation for the approach
ing open season, it might be
well for them to peruse carefully
the hunting regulations of the
State of Nevada.
The open season for the great
er number of the species Of Ne
vada game opens September Is.
After that date and until the
first of March of the succeeding
year, may be hunted mountain
quail, duck, crane. plover, snipe,
curlew, woodcock, valley quail
and prairie chicken. From
March LIST to September 18th is
the closed season of each year,
hunting or pursuing game in
which time is ul.ishable by fine
and Imprisonment. The open
season for deer and antelope is
from September Is to November
Is. At no time is it lawful to
kill the female deer and antelope
or spotted fawn.
The limitations of hunting for
one day and the season, and the
regulations surrounding the sale
and transportation of game from
the state are of especial interest
and should be carefully noted by
sportsmen. Trade in protected
game is forbidden by the law
and to accomplish that end the
law provides the number of birds
or deer that any person. firm OF
corporation may have in his
possession at one time. Partic.
ular reference is made to the
illegality of bartering in game.
The killing of deer and an.
telope is limited to three for any
one sportsman during the open
season. From September Is to
December Is is unlawful for any
person, firm or corporation to
offer for sale in excess of the
prescribed three deer or ante
lope.
The limitations for each sports
men in killing birds for one day
follows: ducks, 20; mountain
quail, so; sage hen, 20; grouse. 6;
valley quail, 20; plover 5; snipe,
Is. The use of hounds in the
hunting Of deer, antelope, carl
bou elk, mountain sheep or
mountain goat is prohibited at
all times.
The transportation of the pro-
tected game from the state is
made a misdemeanor and any
railroad or express company, or
other common carrier, who takes
any of the protected game from
the state or receives it for trans
portation may be prosecuted.
Nests must not be destroyed or
robbed, and shotguns larger
than the number 10 gauge can
not be lawfully used. Song and
insectivorous birds within the
state are protected from hunting
or catching. The ones mention
ed in the game laws are blue
bird, bluejay, thrush, mockinH
bird, yellowhammer, oriole hum
mingbird, swan, robin and
meadowlark.
The penalty for violations are
fine or Imprisonment, or both.
The fine cannot be less than $5C
nor more than $500, and the i'm
prisonment not exceeding SIX
months in the county Jail. It il
no defense that the animals OF
birds were taken or killed out,
side Of the State of Nevada
Neither can a defense be resteG
on the plea that the game wa
killed or taken by person othel
than the one in whose possession
it is found. The possession O
game in the closed seasons or o
more than the limited numbe
prescribed in the law is q viola
ton Of the act and punishable.
