depot on the south side of the tracks
in tho blocks extending east of the
freight depot to the turn in the tracks.
Coming in line with tho iron

unable to secure q single field goal.
Playing on their own floor Aitkin
had the advantage of it during the
first halt which ended 10 to 10, but
IN the second half the Little Falls
boys dug In with greater zest and cut
down this lead by two points. taking
the half by score of IL to 16.
Petraborg was deadly on shooting
free throws. scoring on ten out of
twelve chances. Brannen vas also
there in shooting these tree throws,
missing but few chances. ALI OF the
locals played q hard game, and the
boys are confident that on their home
floor they. can reverse the tables on

BRIDE AT AGE OF IL

WELLSTON, o., Feb. 90
The youngest bride in the city, If
not in the state, is Mrs. William
Williams, II years old, living at
the coal mine owned by Horace
l.. Chapman. The child wife was
Ida Canter before her marriage.
Her husband, miner, is more
than twice the age of the bride.
Annoyed by the persistent efforts
of the probation officer to keep
her in school, she left her home
and went to West Virginia on a
visit. Williams followed the girl
to Pando, w. Va, where the cere-
mony was performed, she having
the full consent of both parents.

Pat Pointers On
Spring Styles

Aside from the dominating SIM
plicities of the Charlotte Corday
/ fashion for spring suits and gowns
one other idea is soon which may
help to mold the 1911 styles. This
J is the so-called German dress re-
form movement in which Paul
+ Poiret of Paris has interested him
self He fashioned the recently
shown skirt, divided at the bot
tOm-the basis for some innova-
lions in real or simulated division
OF the skirt soon to he displayed.
notwithstanding the simple
lines and the scantiness of ma
terial, spring costumes will flatten
the purse just as much as usual.
| The slender silhouet Is still
popular, the waist line is high and
the hips are small
Sleeves will be close. though
not tight fitting. In costumes
and separate waists sleeves are al
most without exception short
elbow and three-quarter length.
Skirts are still narrow and
many of them are slashed open
! at the hem. While a few long
skirts accompany the very dressy
suits, the tendency is largely in
favor of walking length. In sep
arate skirts black is first choice
and navy blue, gray and brown
/ follow.
One piece dresses suitable to
wear without a wrap are develop
ed in serge, panama, astin, crepe,
wolfe, marquisette, challis and
| foulard.
Black and white combinations
promise to dominate color
schemes of the coming season.
Red will be used largely as trim
ming on somber-hued gowns, but
the favorite trimming Will be
braid-the widest of which some
times forms the collar, cuffs and
revers of coats.
Separate coats will be fun
length and the favorite ones win
be made of satin.
The wrap draped around the
figure is seen in evening garments
made of soft supple materials.
Except in rare cases the coat To
the new spring suit will be short.
Broad collars are an important
feature in both tailored suits and
separate wraps.
Dressy gowns are to be in peas
