NEW EFFECTS IN COSTUME


Three accessories in matching
shades belong with the smart street
costume OF this season. One Of
them is the neck piece Of clinton,
lace or satin trimmed with FUR or
feathers and frightened BY tiny
nosegay Of silken flowers, another
il the nun OF matching materials and
ofttimes Of freaIxish shape, and still
another is the huge rose OF velvet
and silk entirely in the ruling tone
Of the boa and the nun. A great
rose, its foliage and stem all In taupe.
may be seem like an absurdity, and
SO it would be If used alone, but OBJ
viously 1t Is the smartest sort of
trimming for a hat Of white plush or
of black velvet that IL worn with q
boa and mum Of taupe chiffon trimmed
with taupe ostrich feather fringe or
with bands Of moleskin.
Another Horticultural surprise fur
nfshed BY the milliners is deep blue
rose that belongs with a boa and muir
Of deep blue brocaded silk, trimmed
with bands OF ermine. Clasping the
neckpiece under the chin and trim
ming the front side Of the rug-shaped
muff il butterfly bow Of crocheted
white floss, and falling from under 1t
Is q shower nosegay Of white silk
rosebuds mingling with bits of swans
down supposed to represent snow
balls. The deep blue rose with its
wealth Of deep blue foliage is pro-
vided as trimming for whatever
hat is to be worn with the boa and
mum set. All Of these accessories are
genuine Creations" For an amateur
to attempt to copy them would be to
court the discouraged state OF mind
usually produced by failure.

Feminine critics of the new draper
les which are now in evidence are
now asking not only If these are be-
coming, but also If they are really the
point OF departure from the treasured
fetish OF Zine"
One thing Is certain about these
draperies. At the present moment
nothing is so nnuch in the height of
fashion as this mode OF arranging the
gown in spiraI-like draperies that
Irvine round the figure and open at
the front or at the side to allow more
freedom Of movement. and also to
show the daintiest OF hosiery and the
prettiest Of shoes.

Most every woman knows that It
spoils the shape OF skirt at the hips
to hang it on an ordinary coathanger.
This difiicllty can be overcome by
driving two small tacks Zone each side
OF the wire hook, leaving the heads
protruding only a little bit. Put the
tacks just as far apart as the loops on
the skirt. A coat can be hung over
this without In the least crushing the

Set aside on the fair program for the

NO two forces work in greater AR

The newspaper men fully realize the

upon the exhibits that can be secured
from the farmers to interest the pub
lie and the attendance of the people
to view the exhibits and the attrac-
tons offered for their enlightenment
and entertainment.
No influence used by any set of men
can accomplish more to bring these
two absolute essentials in making a
success of a fair than the newspape

WINDY SMITH IS
NOW IN TROUBLE
Buffalo Resident is Out on
$4,000 Bond Awaiting
November Court.

Fargo. June 14.-Last evening
States Attorney Fowler issued a COM
! plant against L. S. Smith of Buffalo.
this county, better known as windy
Smith. charging him with murder in
the second degree for the killing of
9 after a running fight. Smith went
before Justice Miller and was held to
the district court in bonds Of $4,000,
which were furnished by s. G.. More
of Buffalo. and the case will be trier
at III November term Of the district
court.
To Clear Smith, Purpose.
This action is a result of a consul
tation between Mr.. Smith and his
friends at which it was decided to ask
this procedure in order that the good
name of Mr.. Smith might be cleared
In a lawful manner, he and his friends
being confident that the outcome will
be an generation from guilt in this
unfortunate affair. The matter was
laid before the states attorney last
evening with the above result.
Killed Man Near Buffalo.
The cause of this action was the
an unknown man who. fully armed.
had been terrorizing the people of
Buffalo and had tried to break into
h farm home of Senator Talcott. He
dropped into Buffalo early that MORN
ing from no one knows where and
did several unlawful acts before go
ing to the Talcott farm and many
became alarmed lest he kill some one.
When the news of his attempt to get
into the Talcott home. where a woman
was alone. reached town, a posse was
formed and trailed the man westward
from the farm. When the pursuers
neared the nan he opened fire upon
them. and undoubtedly remembering
the Sheriff Moody affair in Richland
county. the fire was returnd with the
result that the stranger was shot
through the head and instantly killed.
Exoneratcd by Coroner.
A coroner's jury held an inquest
and e~xonerated all concerned in the
pursuit and it "a supposed this
would be the end Of the matter, it
being evident that the man was a
danger to the community and that in
nocent men or women might have fall
len a victim to his apparent de-
generacy. There was nothing on tho
man to identify him and to this day
his name or home has not been dis
covered.
However. there has been q great
deal of talk around Buffalo against
Mr. Smith. whom 1t is admitted fired
the fatal shot. and it is to settle the
matter for all time that Mr.. Smith
has asked that he be tried for the
shooting, and this will be done.

A GOOD DECISION.
Thinks Sentence for Selling Liquor to
Indians Will be Effective.

Devils Lake, N. D., June 14.-Supt.
c. M. Ziebach of Fort Totten has re-
turned from Fargo where he attended
U. 8. court. A Sisseton Indian was
sentenced to thirteen months and $500
fine for selling liquor to an Indian.
Mr.. Ziebach thinks that the decision
which makes giving or selling liquor
to an Indian a felony under the U. S.
law with a penalty of one to five years,
will do a great deal towards checking
the sale of liquor to Indians. Previ-
ously 1t was only a misdemeanor UNI
der the state law and the penalty was
not large enough to be greatly feared.
