CLING TO CHARMEUSE
FABRIC STILL THE MOST PoPU.
LAR FOR PREVAILING MODES.
Fact That II 10 Suitable for Many oe-
casions Makes the Heavier Weight
the Best Material That Can
Be Employed.

In spite of the fact that figured ma.
terials are considered of first impor-
tance this year, great deal will be
done with the plain satins and wor-
steds. especially in the way of combin-
Ing embroideries with them, although
at the same time the material will con-
tinue to figure prominently in the trim
ming scheme. Just as it has for the two
seasons past writes Lillian Young, in
the Washington Star
For prevailing modes charmeuse is
probably the most satisfactory fabric
to use and also the most popular. 1t
has taken such a hold upon the fash
lon world that 1t is likely to remain a
favorite. season in and out. There are
different weights, but the heavier are
best, having sufficient body to produce
the desired clinging effect, yet not too
much for graceful drapery. and it is
suitable for variety of different occa-
sions.
In the pleasing design sketched to-
day dull blue charmeuse is employed,
and other than the narrow stuffed en-
broidery border there is no trimming,
though the material itself and the ar
rangement of draperies make 1t any

Fell Down Shaft;

Falling into shaft at the Winters
mine and living for % days without

befell the valuable hunting dog be-
longing to Chris Jeppesen who is
developing a mining property in
that locality. The dog had been
missing for 22.days and his owner
had given up all hope of ever seeing
him again and he was oveyjoyed
when faithful pet was returned.
The dog is unusually bright and
is highly priced by Mr.. ..Jeppersen.
While at Lake Tahoe a few years
ago guest at Tahoe Tavern offer
ed 5000 for the dog but the money
was promptly refused.
Jeppersen's cabin is about a mile
from the mine and the dog on differ
ent occcasions has been given a
lunch bucket at the cabin by Mrs
Jeppersen and he would go unac-
companied to the mine and carry the
lunch in the tunnel where his
master was at work.

Reservoir Head
gates Have Been
Closed

The chain of storage reservoirs
at the headwaters of the Carson
river, owned by the Alpine Land and
Reservoir company, are being re-
paired and put in condition for the
winter weather. The headgates
have been closed and when they are
again opened it will be for the pur-
pose of supplying the farmer with
water when the natural river flow
becomes too low to supply the needs.
There has been some talk of in
creasing the reservoirs to about
three times their storage capacity,
but owing to the fact that the gov
ernment is now investigating and
figuring on building storage reserv-
oirs at the headwaters of the Car
son, the farmers are not contempla-
ting any enlargement of their stor-
age system at the present time. If,
howerer, the government arrives at
an unfavorable decision regarding
the contemplated undertaking, then
no doubt, the farmers will enlarge
their reservoirs from time to time
until their capacity will be sufficient
for all requirements.

Scenic Road
Completed

The road connecting Tahoe and
Tallac, with few minor repairs at
the close of the Winter, will be
ready for the opening of the 1914
touring season. One of the draw
backs to the lake trip has been the
barging from one resort to another
on account of the absence of a road
connecting Tallac to Tahoe. The
finest scenery is to be found where
the new road rounds Emerald Bay.
This part of the road which is from
500 to 1000 feet above the water, is
for the most part blasted along the
face of a solid cliff, and in many
places one gets an absolutely unob-
structed view of both Emerald Bay
and the lake. At the south side of
Emerald Bay the road climbs to the
top Of hogback, and one has a
view of Cascade Lake 500 feet below
on the left, of Emerald Bay 1000 feet
below on the right, and Lake Tahoe
spreading out directly in front, with
the rugged mountains on the Me-
vada side of the lake as a back
ground.

Slate ays Money

According to the report of the at
tending physician. the condition OF
Hans Nelson, brother of Councilman
Nelson. who was kicked by horse
last week. is such as to insure his to-
tai disability for nearly year. Both
legs were broken. and one OF them
50 severely fractured that it was nee
essary to remove a large section Of
the bone entirely.
Since Nelson is the first employe
of the city to receive an injury since
the city adopted the new workmen' 5
compensation act, he will be the first
to benefit by that measure although
it is doubtful if it can be considered
just in that light.
Although the matter has not yet
been definitely settled by report
from the state officials, it is thought
that Nelson comes under the total
disability clause emitting him to halt
the amount of his salary during the
time of such disability, not exceeding
100 months. According to these fig
ures he will be entitled to receive
from the state trifle more than $45
each month while he is disabled
