to use it in a very exquisite gown

Seeks 10 Introduce the Long Coat.
Though American Women Have
Pronounced Against Them
Pannier Gown Is a Favorite.

"a ARIS.-PaQuin said this season
- that she laid stress upon no spe-
cial fashion. She believed in
many gowns for many tastes.
and that, although she started he

the waist line, she also showed gowns
that had the panier, others that were
draped tight to the figure, and slash
ed to give free movement; she advo-

successes in fashions suggested by
the Russian dancers.
the public was intensely interested
over these dancers, and the women
were copying many of the lines and
the setting of the jewels and the
shoulder drapery in the gowns they
wore for dinner at the Normandy and
for summer at the Casino. Therefore
Nine Paquin. who was a part of this
atmosphere, allowed it to influence
many of her new gowns for this sea
son.
1t was probably through this that
we owe the long coat fully gathered
to wide ornamental girdle and hang
ing to a point at the back. These
are distinctly Russian. We saw them
in America for season or two, but
did not think of copying them; we
thought they were rather crude and
cumbersome, and possibly the major
ity have not revised their opinion on
this subject, even though so strong
a master as Paquin has considered
them good-looking enough to intro
duce as a leading factor in clothes.
Not for Stout Women,

hips. what will be the effect if they
put such coats? They make the hips
look twice the natural size,
enlarge the waist beyond all
norm,l lines and cut the figure in
length because. of their curving lines
at the knees.
The very slim woman who has been
able to wear every fashion without
thought will be able to put on these
full garments and exploit them as a
new and becoming style, but what OF
the rest of the world? There are
certain dignihed figures, matronly
more than robust, which can stand
the added fullness over the waist and
hips without deterioration, but the
young woman who is neither thin nor

Burns May Prove Fatal.

Another terrible accident result
ing from On explosion, while at
tempting to start a fire with oil
occurred last Sunday evening,
when Mrs. Elsie Nickerman was
terribly burned about the neck and
limbs, and up to the present writ
ing the physician entertains but
slight hopes for her recovery.
According to the best informa-
ton the Pioneer can obtain Mrs.
Nickerman attempted to use gaso-
line to liven the fire in the heater,
and the instant the oil exploded
her clothing was enveloped in
flames. She was alone at the
time and before assistance reached
her she was SO badly burned that
her injuries may prove fatal.
Later-Just before going to
press we learn that Mrs. Wicker
man died this morning at 2 o clock
and the funeral will be held on
Saturday afternoon.

Recent j. s. Land
Office Decision

The Register will be held liable
for the costs of republication Of
final proof where an error in des-
cription of land is made by him.
The record is in possession of the
Register and he should see that
the descriptions are correct be-
fore directing publication. Pub
lished instructions Of August IL,
1909 (38 L. D. 1917. Affirmed.
Where the proof as to resi-
dence is weak, but there is
strong proof of cultivation of
the land in added area and with
increasing yield Of crops each
year, and evidence showing
persistent effort to maintain an
actual home upon the land, the
proof will be deemed sufficient.
The law permitting cash entry
Of timbered and nontimbered
lands does not fix definite
period for making final proof.
However, it must be reasonable
and made within seven Years
from date of entry, as in ordin-
ary homestead entries has been
considered the lim..,o Of time,
which may properly be allowed
for the making Of final proof Of
entries of this class.
A contest affidavit filed against
a desert land entry during the
pendency of an application for
extension of time under the act
Of March %, 1908, should allege
facts tending to overcome the
prima facia showing of right to
such extension. Citing Hoobler
VS.. Treffry (39 L. D. 557)
The entryman's rights to such
extension of time is prima facia,
by reason of the mere filing of
the application, and the burden
Of proof is upon contestant to
controvert the facts set forth in
the application for extension of
time.
A motion to dismiss an appeal
will not be granted, where it ap-
pears that the interests involved
are large and the United States
is in truth and in fact a party in
interest, but will be disposed of
on its merits.

Scrap Was Sure
a Real One

This days of ring exhibitions in
Beach are nearly closed, accord
ing to the best estimates that
can be obtained on this subject
from people who are tired Of see-
ing the town made the dumping
place for alleged boxing matches
that wind up with mighty ques-
tionable benefit to the reputation
of the community. The latest
instance Of this character occur
red Wednesday evening, when a
fight advertised to brought off
at Wibaux was stopped at the
last moment by Dawson county
officials and dumped off onto the
people Of this city. Conversa-
tion with Mayor Noble revealed
that the matter had been repre-
sented to him as a boxing match
for points only. AS there were
as yet no local ordinances against
the fighting game anyway he
was somewhat Handicapped as re-
CARDS disposing Of it. States At
torney Gallagher was out Of the
city and could not be reached by
those who desired to see if it
could not be stopped under coun-
ty authority. In the meantime a
fair-sized number Of local sports
men were got together to wit
ness the match" which was
pulled off, according to schedule,
between Bill Frost of Wibaux
and Billy Morris of Miles City.
1t is stated that the Miles City
man fouled his opponent by a
.ow blow, which may have been
accidental. Frost said he was
not hurt, and Morris was eau
toned. Later Frost got two bad
jolts, which angered him, and
he fouled Morris with a number
of vicious fighting, and wound
up by fouling him while down.
The referee declared the decision
forfeited to Morris.
The Advance, for one, is tired
of seeing Beach made the dump
ing ground for affairs of this
kind and of the kind which was
pulled off here one day last fall,
to say nothing of other ring
events which may be sportsman
like enough under the rules but
which do nit reflect credit on
the city. If there is no ordi-
nance against them, there needs
to be one prepared Immediately.

who presented some beautiful Sc

Miss Boyee brings to bear upon
her work very extensive and
thoughtful reading and study,
talent for collecting much detail,

viduality. Her refined and chaste
selection OF words, her grammati-
cal use of language, her balanced
handling Of ths subject, and her
thoroughly natural manner of in
tonation, pose and gesture all
point in the direction of success.
The subject Miss Bovee selected
for her lecture was "The White
