at 4;30 a. m, they arrived in camp at
10 a. m, making the run of seventy
two miles without an accident.
George Woods Hicks, the genial
owner of the ranch, passed Saturday
and Sunday with the campers and as
sured them plenty of venison dinners
in deer season. Other game abounds in
great abundance, and the hunters in
camp find no time to get lonesome.

are made of length that lies on the
floor not more than two inches.
Particularly appropriate for the
young girl is the wreath OF roses
worn with not too fiat couture,
but a simple one. Leaves are often
substituted for the roses and to
good effect.
The vogue of the collarless dress
is in a measure responsible for the
return of the half-inch velvet rib
bon neckband
A very interesting trimming
shows tinsel cord balls strung on
heavy soutache braid, knotted at
intervals.
The occasional great dot of the
new veil is as becoming to fair
compilations as patches used to be.
Scarfs are much worn. They are
made of soft satin, must match the
dress in color. The idea is pretty as
well as practical.
Some of the attractive new fou-
lards are printed with old cashmere
designs. These are being used in
all kinds of stunning costumes and
for trimmings.
Buttons are simply enormous, and
when of polished brass resemble
lamps in embryo. Many of the CEN
tiers are en- cabochon.
The newest motor coats show a
very decided preference for the rag
Ian sleeve, which carries more dash
than the regulation coat sleeve.
Riding habits are decidedly short
er than formerly. Hard hats, round
and rather fat, are proper.
The stockings this summer are
most Of them two toned, matching
or contrasting with the costume
Crashes and grass linens are well
thought of this season.
The hat with the ribbon bow Is
quite popular.
The newest colored handkerchiefs
are in polka dot design.
Smoke gray wolfe is being en-
ployed in the latest models for sum-
mer wear.

+ YOU meet a woman and her
face is all Wreathed in smiles
you can depend upon it she is
wearing Kayser hosiery. Her feet
are comfortable, therefore she is
happy. Then you begin to wonder
where she buys them, On inquiry
you find THE NEWCOMB CORSET
SHOP is the firm that carries them.
Did you ever consider the durability
of these hose that are made of ltal-
ian silk? They are double tipped
heel and toe. They have all the col
ors to match your gowns. Then
there is the refined, fastidious
woman who always wears silk I'M
derwear. Just hint to those
women: At this same shop you can
buy magnificently and daintily eIn-
broldered Italian silk vests. Their
colors are white, pink and blue.
Bear in mind they have some OF the
best makes of corsets that are on
the market. They have experienced
filters, so no one. need go away
from their shop, 531 South Broad
way, without being well pleased.
Their trade is daily increasing from
the fact that they always strive to
please and they succeed.
The summer days are here when
one must give much care to the hair
and complexion. Any day you stop
at M. Fredericksons. 743 South
Broadway, you will find every chair
occupied by women having sham
poo. BY the crowd one would think
there is only one toilet parlor in the
city, and I guess that's right when
it comes to service. Have you ever
tried their facial massage? 1t Is so
restful as we'll as beneficial. Re-
member their exquisite line OF hair
ornaments.
1t is surprising how few long
skirts are to be seen. Many gowns
intended for daytime wear nave no
train at all. Those that are not
short enough to clear the ground do
not have any perceptible train, but

PATIENT ON HIS WAY
TO HOSPITAL SAVES
DOCTOR
When Sleigh Upsets Grabs Horses
as They Are Dragging Physician
Along the Road

BLOOMBURG, Pa, Feb. 5.-With
the doctor who was to operate upon
him and who was bringing him to
the hospital here, pinned under his
sleigh, Matthew Lawton, of Mill
vile, himself in a serious condition
with appendicitis, saved DR.. Everett
from injury by jumping to the
horses heads and stopping them
after they had demolished the
sleigh and were dragging DIR.
Everett along the road.
Lawton's condition was so seri-
Gus that an urgent call had been
sent to the hospital to have the op-
Grating room in readiness for them
upon their arrival. They had reach
ed a point about halfway between
Bloomsbury and Millville when the
physician, who had suffered a frao-
tured wrist recently by slipping on
an icy pavement, lost control of the
team and it ran away.
The doctor and patient reached
the hospital late at night. Lawton
apparently suffered no i'll effects
from his experience.

RUINS OF ANOTHER
ANCIENT CITY FOUND

JOHANNESBURG, Feb. 81
Much interest has been aroused
throughout South Africa by
the reported discovery of a bur
led city near the Vaal, in the
western Transvaal. 1t appears
that as a farmer was digging a
grave he came upon a large
slab, which, on being exhumed,
proved to be of kind Of mar
BILE unknown in the neighbor-
hood. 1t was beautifully work
ed, evidently by highly-skilled
hands. Further excavations
disclosed another similar slab.
Subsequently trench was
driven from the spot, which
led to the discovery of an an
cient wall of massive masonry.
A johannesburg syndicate has
been formed: which will direct
systematic excavations. Near
the spot are several mounds
and ridges. The slabs discov-
cred are said to resemble an
other Grecian work, and with
other remains, appear to belong
to an entirely different civiliza-
ton from that responsible for
the Rhodesian ruins.

therefore, some reason to think that

bridged.

CONFLICT BREWING
BETWEEN TIBET
AND CHINA
Ambans Destroy Monasteries
and Make Boots From
Sacred Books.

HONG KONG, Feb, 5.-Advices
from a well-informed source dis.
close a serious situation which has
arisen in Tibet owing to the con-
slant friction between the Chinese
authorities and the Tibetans. The
Viceroy, Chou, does not seem to
exercise any real power, which ap-
parently lies in the hands of Lien
and Wen, the senior and junior
Ambans resident at Lhassa. Six
mandarins administer the civil
power, but ignore the wishes Of the
Tibetan public and Of the commit
tee or council who are supposed to
assist them. The position has be-
come SO intolerable that repre-
sentatives Of this general commit
tee arrived In Calcutta and sent a
long telegram to the Wai-wu-pu
praying the Emperor Of China to in
terfere in the interests Of the sac
red Buddhist religion.
MUCH CRUEL OPPRESSION
The telegram accuses the Am
bans of the dissertation and de,
struction of monasteries and states
that many lamas have been killed
by the non-Buddhist soldiery and
that the people in many districts
are subjected to cruel oppression.
1t further declares that the pro
posal of the committee that the
British guards which have been
withdrawn from the newly opened
trade marts should be replaced by
| Tibetan police trained under Chin
| csc officers, has been rejected and
that Chinesee soldiers have been
| sent instead. If the Ambans and
the troops are not withdrawn the
Tibetans will probably revolt and
much trouble will follow.
TiBETANS FACE TROOPS
The statement as to the desecra
ton of monasteries seems to be
true, and sacred books have been
used to make boots for non-Budd
hist soldiers. 1t is reported that
armed bands of Tibetans are now
face to face with troops at Chhando
and a conflict is possible.
There are 200 Chinese soldiers
at Lhassa itself. The committee
have received no reply from Pc
king, though reminders have been
sent. 1t is believed that the Wal
wu-pu neglected to place the ap
peal before the Emperor.

TO WED SINCE KING
LEOPOLD'S DEMISE

LONDON, Feb. 5.-A communica.
ton received in England from
Prince Victor Napoleon's secretary
contains what is generally regarded
as a confirmation of the reports
which have been current in .Brus-
sells for some time past that the
death Of King Leopold removed the
only barrier to the marriage of
Prince Victor and Princess Clemen-
tine of Belgium. They are known
to have been deeply attached for
several years last. King Leopold S
objections were diplomatic rather
than personal, and the situation is
now changed because Princess
Clementine is no longer a daughter
of, but only cousin, to the ruler OF
Belgium.
