Mile. Leonora Keriwin has de-
signed for herself a becoming cap OF
white lace, the crown outlined by
white ribbon roses, and at the peak
of the crown, two hornlike bows,
giving a charming dash of what the
French call "diablerie" to the eve

Paris, too, furnishes a hint OF
bizarre modes in an odd scoop hat
bonnet, made after the fashion Of
our grandmother's cherished lace
caps, but drawn well forward over
the face, and made of crushed and
flattened white flowers covering and
dropping from frame Of soft white
straw.
In the two drawings on this page
appear the two already adopted ex-
tremes Of Spring millinery: q wide
brimmad hat Of white Tagel with a
huge black velvet bow, and a
crushed cluster Of pale pink roses
on the side; and swathed toque of
pale green and dark blue chiffon.
And now, after this depression, I
must make known to you the details
Of a new turban toque, where soft
blue and green chiffons are SO en-
twined that neither color can be
clearly distinguished, though the
blue is definitely chosen for the un-
derlining of the pastille spotted
black net which forms the crown.
This new shape may be found more
generally becoming. perhaps, than
the other and original turban, whose
folds Of tulle or tissue formed a
closely encircling band about the
head, though to my thinking, for
those who are sufficiently well pro-
vided by nature to dare the seal Of

The one which I made for Lily
Elsie's wear in "A Waltz Dream"

and gold, with a flash of scarlet in
the ornament holding a great black
brush aigrette in position at the left

OF keeping many women faithful to
a form of headgear to which the
new and enormously large hat
threatened considerable danger, If
not actual death!
And inasmuch too, as IN my pro-
duction for the coming season, the
turban will still find an honoredi
place. You may. If you so desire 1t,
be sure Of a chance of wearing It
for some months to come, at any

Summer theatre patrons have re-

fun and the Orpheum management
has made the comedy portion of the

July "a May Robson.
July 31-Mrs. Fiske.

July a1--0uIH. Elske.
There is no reasonable argument
against success. Numerous conject-
ures explanatory and otherwise are
advanced, but If one examines into
the successful undertakings theatrical
Isl and commercially, we find that 1t is
merit and effort, and not accidental.
For instance, The Regeneration OF
Aunt Mary, as presented by May
Robson Is an illustration. Here we
have bright and particularly funny
comedy presented by an unusually
clever actress the personality Of an
old maid--her first visit to New York
and her experiences ably illustrated by
clever approximation hence merit and
success.
Miss Robson duplicated this success
in London at Terry's theatre. An Eng
lish audience is severely critical over
American plays, but in this case the
comedy is pure bright and very funny
and Miss Robson as Aunt Mary won
immediate recognitions the freezing
attitude Of that British audience melt
ed and Miss Robson was in the sum
shine of popularity. She carried them
with her with shouts Of laughter and
the staid, dignified newspapers of Lon
don elated and even bubbled over Miss
Robson and her play, expressing their
opinion that Miss Robson's character
ization had not been equalled by an
English player of recent years Then
follows a full revision OF the play, a.
somewhat unusual proceeding of the
English critics over comedy produc-
ton.
The theatre-g going public was inter-
ested and Miss Robson's engagement
was extended from three to eight
weeks merit was recognized and sus-
tanned.
Miss Robson, with the original COM
pany will appear at the Fargo opera
house on Monday evening. presenting
the play In the same cleverness and
without single change from the Lon
don production.

We'll best her but 1t win be a long,

This Is the opinion OF Col James A.
Irons, commander OF the Twentieth
infantry, who fqr three years before
taking command was military attache
in japan, and who has been for the
past two and a half years stationed
with his regiment at Manila.
Colonel Irons obtained a leave OF alb
sence early in April to bring Mrs.
Irons to Rochester, MINI, for treat
ment by Doctors Mayo. He arrived in
st. Paul yesterday and will leave in a
few days for San Francisco. whence
he will sail for the Philippines Aug. 5.

brought about is to enlarge the force

troops in the Pacific islands, Colonel
Irons declared the establishment of a
base at Pearl HaI'bor In the Hawaiian
islands is In his opinion one of the
best moves ever made by the govern
ment If 1t wants to have anything ia
say In Pacific or Astatic waters.
THE government that controls such
good base as that at Pearl Harbor,
said the colonel, "will hold the key Il

supplies. A large force Of infantry
can be quartered there and will bt

Speaking Of Japan, was military

AS a student Christine Miller who
will be heard in Fargo next season is
renowned in the artistic world for her
attachments. Her Scotch parents took
her from the old country when she was
4, and soon after her education
began in Pittsburgh. Musically, she
was educated in Boston. William L.
Whitney developed her voice, and she
has studied languages with private tu-
tors. and each season has coached with
eminent authorities. Physically Miss
Miller again defles the conventional.
Most contraltos are large women Of
robust type. Miss Miller is not more
than medium height, and slender, with
soft brown hair, bonnie" blue eyes,
very attractive features, and a most
winsome smile. Popular as a singer,
she is equally popular as q woman
Fellow artists admire her Immensely
and the musical directors seem as
ready to join in the universal COM

NO HOPE FOR
The N. D. PROJECT

Washington, July 22.--AIthough one
Of the few remaining irrigation pro-
Jects possessing merit Director r. I'll.
Newell of the reclamation service holds
out little or no hope for the immediate
reclamation of lands In Bowman
county or what is known as the
Grand River Irrigation project.
Director Newell in his letter to Sem
ator McCumber with reference to this
project, says:
This is one OF a number of secon-
dairy projects which have been ex-
amined and are believed to possess
merit, but which have been laid aside
indefinitely, In accordance with act of
congress of June rs, 1910, which in
section provides that hereafter no
irrigation project shall be begun un-
less and until the same shall have
been recommended by the secretary of
the Interior and approved by direct
order Of the president OF the United
States. At the same time a board OF
army engineers was created, the re-
port of which board was approved by
the president and transmitted to con-
gress on Jan. 5, 1911, which apportion-
ed funds for the years 1911 to 1914.
Under this apportionment no provision
was made for work on any of these
secondary projects.
II regret to state that 1t will not
be possible therefore, to initiate work
OF this kind in the near future"
The money apportioned by the army
board referred to above consisted Of
approximately $2O.0O0.O00 made avail
able by congress recently FOR the COM
pletion of projects already under way.
Under this act no new project can be
initiated with the money thus appro-
priated.
However, at the next regular session
of congress attempts doubtless will be
made by Senator McCumber and Others
to set aside additional moneys for the
irrigation Of such projects which in
the opinion Of the interior department
and the president are considered prac-
tical.
In the meantime the people OF Bow
man county viii have to remain
patient.
