4 Woman Introduced Starch

In 1564 a woman introduced starch into England. She was a Mrs. Ding ham. Dutchwoman, wife of a coach man in the service of the queen.
 The England of her day blossomed into linen ruffs. enormous, snowy, until the tight little island looked like one huge snowdrift. These ruffs were a foot wide and stood straight ont. starched stiff as a board, on men and women alike They were got up with ''poking stick" until they were a marvel to behold and propped up with a framework of wire underneath.
 All the women of the kingdom were driven to the starch bowl, and they used starch in all the colors of the rainbow. "A certain kind Of liquid matter which they call starch, where in the devil hath willed them to die their ruff" is the way one crabbed old chronicler puts it-New Idea Wo- mans Magazine.

Douglas internationally

Arthur Houle has returned. from Cumpas and in few days will leay e for the East, and from New York will sail for Brazil. He will SC again to the mining property which he visited nearly two years ago anG where he was engaged for several months, returning last summer. Since his return MT. Houle has teon out of the city much of the time, inspect ing mining properties, so that is has now been long time since Douglas has seen much of him.
 The engagement which Mr Houle has in Brazil is one which pays a high tribute to his ability as a min ing engineer and with the property the names of Major Durham and John Hays Hammond are associated, according to common report.
 Mir. Houle has just been inspecting the development work of the Trans vaal property. While he would not make any statement as to the prop. erty before presenting his report to the owners of that property who are argely Cincinnati people, he did say
 hat it was especially promising.

 RAILROAD IS SURE

TUCSON, Dec. o0.-That the H Paso & Southwestern railroad has d. cided finally and conelusively to ex- tend it's lines vest to Tucson and es- tablish extensive division headquar- ters and shops there, is a rumor, be lived to be well authenticated, which is said to have eminated from South ern Pacific headquarters in New York
 Although no confirmation of that rumor can be obtained locally, 1t is known that the railroad committee of the chamber of commerce which re- gently secured rights of way for tracks and terminal facilities for the proposed railroad extension. will pc tition the city council at its next meeting for franchise for the Fl Paso & Southwestern. granting per mission to traverse certain streets of the city not yet definitely decided upon, and to cross through the c'ty farm, the franchise to be conditional that the E. P. & s. w. comes here.
 From that fact it is taken that the engineers of tfe El Paso & South western. of whom ]. L. Campbell has been most frequently in the city, prefer the right of way running north

 MODEL BUILDING

PHOENIX, Dec. 21.-"The Pion- eers' home, as it stands, practically finished, is not oniy a handsome trii ute to the good cause it represent, but it is likewise the best and cheap est public building Arizona has eves received for the money. I am proud of it, and as a member of the board of control, will say that it will be ac cepted in a few days. The territory is to be congratulated for the faith fri performance of the contract bJ H. Rockmark, the contractor, and Ia the administration of Major Doran his supervision of the work is also commendable and praiseworthy.
 These were the words uttered to- day by R. 4. Craig. citizen member Of the board of control, who arrived in the city last evening from Pres cote, where he went to examine the institution, and to make arrange ments for it's occupancy before the first of the year arrives.
 He states that the furniture vii, arrive in Prescott during the next few days and arrangements have been made for placing it in position immediately. The interior of the big structure IS receiving the fin ishing touches, and will be officially received early ihe coming week.
 Speaking of the plan to be follow cd as to the admission of pioneers to their future home, MT. Craig states that the limit will be forty. Of this number the ,arious boards of su. peryisors of the territory will receive applications, and when received by the board of control the number VII be culled until fhe maximum is reach ed that will be permitted to enter the institution. From the disposition shown throughout the territory al the present lime, the full capacity of the institution will be required.
 MT Craig conveys the agreeable in formation that Major Doran will be elected to the superintendency of th7 home at the first official meeting the board appreciating his invalva ble services duriung construction And recognizing his ability to ably h,ndle the institution.

Heavy Cluoy lecc on Hats fs Smart
 and Pretty.
 Following the lines of the fashions for their mothers and older sisters, the clothes for the little folks shown in Paris have new and pretty applica- tions of bands on tue short skirts of both dresses and coats. heightened waist lines and tendency to greater simplicity in trimming.
 . Probably one of the newest features of fashion for the young people is the ase of heavy ciuny lace on the hats. coats and dresses. 1t Is a charming lace combined with heavy or sheer quality linens for dresses for all the year around wear and win take the place of embroidery in trimming silk or cloth coats.
 As q garniture for children's hats there Is nothing quite so appropriate as ciuny or fillet lace, which belongs to the same family of laces. It has a heavy. substantial look and yet is light in weight and young looking Often a piece of eluny edging or insertion forms the entire brim of an adorable poke bonnet. whhe the crown is a huge sfiff appearing bakers shape in black velvet.
 It is a new and pretty idea to use clusters of these tiny roses in scatter ings over the upper briIn of child's hat, or one will be found pressed close Iy to the underbrim at the side to give a gay bit of color 10 the face.
 To be sure, bows are still used on the hats. The newest ones for satin and velvet hats are made of white suede kid, which are also used much for older folks hats this year. This. too. Is an economical idea. as one can send the hat to the cleaners or fresh en il at home with benzine. whereas white silk and satin ribbons would have 10 be discarded as soon as soil ed. IL is used also for the crowns and as an upper brim facing on the sever CT types of hats for school or every day wear. but it is not suitable for a friily lace or fancifully trimmed style
 Black satin and velvet are having an unusual vogue for children's coats as well as hats, and 1t is delightfully."- old fashioned and quaint looking and has tendency to add to their youth and babyishness rather than age them, as one would be inclined to think about these materials. A charming little coat Of black velvet was made with the body portion and coat in one piece and scanned at the underarm and sleeves. The shoulders and sleeves hung with fullness and were drawn on two heavy cords from the neck across the shoulders to the sleeve ends. The

Dry Goods Market.


New York. June 96.-L.ower prices
on bleached and brown cottons have
induced more trading, as the value of
cotton still holds steady. mills are in
creasing the volume of machinery that

During the holiday week many of the
largest New England corporations will
shut down. and 1t is now, generally
agreed among many Southern mills
that production will be curtailed during
July and August until cloth prices show

cotton costs.
The reduction of half cent yard
in bleached cottons week ago was
followed by the placing OF many small
orders by buyers in all parts of the

production show that curtailment has

This report Will take the crtS doNtn

evening up sort than anything in the
way of new Undertakings Up to FRI
day trade results Will probably hest

ious to tighten their holdings to the
level where they will feel safe in car
rying them over Saturday sunday and
Monday, three days of inactivity.
The three day recess is due to the
Fourth of July. Liverpool is observ-
ing them just as much as the American

reasons. but because that market does
not want to be the target for opera
tons of possibly unpleasant nature,
