The Spring ! BRIDE

II comes from abroad that the spring
bride is no longer clinglng to the long
established customs OF her grand
mothers. Nowadays women who con-
template formal weddings are throw
ing traditions to the winds and are
planning their trousseaus with Two
very important facts in mind-the be-
comingness of style to the wearer
and note of individuality that is dis
tinctive.
There is no sensible reason why a
bride of to-day should look her worst
in a certain trying shine of dead white
satin, or conceal her beauty behind q
veil that curtains the face after the
manner Of the mosquito-defyins
canopies
OF course, there Is always an un--
Heniable dignity in a plain cut OF
white satin, but practicahility must be
considered and the dress chosen with
a view to the years to come
Frequently there can be given a
softenng touch by yelling the gown
with net tulle; that is, when there
Is no decoration of old lace. THIS
latter, If one be fortunate enough to
have it In the family. Is a valuable
addition to the gown.

woman, and is in a position to insist
upon her ideas being carried out at
her own wedding.
In the first place, her gown was
fashioned Of tulle embroidered with
long dull seed pearls This simpl.
overdress was placed on a foundation
of soft white satin Just one more
departure was made before she fin
ished. Her coloring was not the KIND

lessen the whiteness of tho costume
by the use of an underslip of pale

.ye County
Wins Suit

Yesterday in the Federal Court
Nye County won its case against the
First National Bank of San Francis
CO. The Federal Court decided that
it had no jurisdiction in the matter.
Nye County was represented by
Cleve Baker.
The suit was filed about q year ago
and was the result of the failure of
the Nye & Ormsby County Bank, of
which Frank Golden is, or was, pres
ident. Nye County had about $6O.-
900 on deposit in the bank, but ow-
ing to the fact that Golden needed
the funds to hold up the other banks
of the Nye and Ormsby chain, the
county was forced to borrow and
consequently gave notes for about
$4,000. Golden hypothecated the
notes to the First National Bank of
San Francisco, and the suit resulted.
What the next step will be is a mat
ter OF conjecture.-Bonanza.
