The editor OF the Southwestern

who stopped with the pastor, was
sick three days last week as a result
of eating chicken salad at Pueblo dur
ing the recent session of the Freed
mems Aid Board. He has entirely re-
covered and left for New Orleans this
week.
The sad intelligence of the sudden
death of Mrs. Ella Simonton, beloved
sister of Mrs. Anna Mcpherson, came
to us this week. She died in Du-
range, Colo. The remains will be
shipped to her home in Kentucky.
We extend our heartfelt sympathies
to the bereaved family.

Methodist Episcopal church is in ses-
sion at Trinity church. The follow

sentative of the sixth General Con-
ference, held his audience spellbound
in the evening.
We wish to thank the Rev a. F.
Ragatz for the rendering of his
church for Bishop SCOTS lecture last
Tuesday evening. The churcA1 was
donated for the occasion. Miss Leila
Rice showed herself very efficient in
playing the pipe organ on this occa-

none in Denver.

report Immediately to the pastor.
There are several tickets out yet. A

RAILROAD BUILDER.

J. J. Hughes, the railroad contrac-
tor, was in Sunday. In the days when
the railroad was building into this
place, Mr.. Hughes was stationed at
Oroville and held the position of engi-
neer in charge of construction. Short
ly before the completion of the road
he resigned his position and moved
to Spokane, where he entered the en-
ploy of the Seims & Shields the big
railroad contractors. Shortly after
wards he purchased an interest in a
smaller contracting firm and started
railroad construction on his own &C
count. His former training in the en-
cheering department has been a val
liable asset to him in his present work
and it is reported that he is fast &C
quiring a competency. During his
residence in Oroville of nearly two
years Mr. Hughes made many friends,
who are always glad to welcome him
back to the old stamping grounds
whenever business calls him to this
part of the state.

FARM RESIDENCE BURNS.

Word was received fere the latter
part OF last week of the burning of
the home of Frank f.. Mitchell, a few
miles beyond Circle, on the Kipling
road. Mr. Mitchell has been living on
the farm alone for some weeks, Mrs.
Mitchell being in Oroville where the
children are attending school. On the
morning of the burning Mr.. Mitchell
had started fire in the stove and gone
to the barn to attend to the morning
chores. A few minutes after leaving
the house he discovered fire breaking
through the roof The fire had gained
such Roadway by he time he reached
the house that saving the building was
out of the question, so he confined his
attention tC taking out the contents, a
small share of which he succeeded in
saving from the flames. There was no
insurance on the building, and the
blow was heavy one to Mr.. Mitchell,
as the house was one of the best in
that neighhOrhood. 1t is understood
that he will rebuild in the near fu-

Of the tenderest things her husband

must manage to look neat always-or
lose out when comparisons are made.
Little auto bonnets are most becom-
ing and fetching, most simple and
not expensive. The illustrations CIV
en- here show how well the small hats
and bonnets protect the head and
face. Why Tin the name of good
judgment) should women go hatless
to ride, when they are much prettier
with their millinery than without it.?
Three types Of hats are shown here,
suited to the car. The smoothly-cov-
cred bonnet-like shape of velvet and
silk, with a velvet rosette, Is to be
worn with a veil pinned on for mo-
toring. It is comfortable and becom-
ing, an altogether practical affair.
The bonnet of silk braid with
pulled crown Of velvet is trimmed
with narrow bands Of marabout out
lining the veil, which is draped about
it. This is beautiful model in mole
skin velvet with natural marabout
and Persian braid. The veil matches
the velvet in color, and is long, so
that 1t may cover the face and be
wound about the throat, where re-
quired. It is distinctively an auto
bonnet, but an exquisite piece of mil
linery as well, always an adornment.
The small, rounI, soft turbal
shown is of velvet with two soft and
flexible quilts and a bead buckle. It
does not suggest the auto at all, but,
with the addition of veil, prettily
adjusted, is as complete as the hats,
which are designed solely for motor
ing. This hat is just the thing for
those who ride only occasionally.

His Future Expenditures.

Among the most frequent requests
that go to the United States senate
are those asking some prominent
member to give money to charity or
CARNATIONS, hospitals and other phi
lanthropic undertakings. One day a
charity worker asked Senator Flint
of California, who is not wealthy
man, to give large sum Of money
for a free ward in one Of the hos
pitfalls.
81 am sorry that / cannot comply
with your request" said the senator
gravely; "but, judging from the num-
Der OF similar demands that have been
made upon me in the past, have de-
cided that can promote greater
charity. The vast amount of money
spent on hospitals in this town con-
vinces me that thousands OF people
are going to die and be buried with
out flowers. Hereafter, shall devote
my spare money exclusively to send
ing flowers to the dead."-The Sun

AS result of the dangers from con-
sumption to those exposed to various
forms Of dust, and at the request of
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention Of tuberculosis, the
United States government has recent
ly appointed commission to work in
cooperation with state authorities in
making an investigation into the con-
ditions of the metal mining industries
in the United States, with special ref
erence to diseases of the lungs. The
work of the commission engaged in
this special task will follow lines
somewhat similar to those worked
out by the Royal Commission of Aus
tralia, whose report was recently re-
ceived in this country.
