which he tried to launch in this Legis-
lature but failed to do.
The Saloon bill Of EIDE, of Bsadle,
came up for passage this past week but
was deferred until later, there being a
great fight on the question of one saloon
to 1000 people.
Some memorials that have been passed
asked Congress to limit the jurisdiction
Of the Federal courts from enjoining the
snforcemsntA6f state laws; to modify
the laws relating 10 tbs lease of Indian
lands; to make Fort Meade . brigade
post; to make hom ssteads 800 acres, and
to have Presidential primaries. At
least two constitutional amendments will
be voted on at the next election, being
the suffrage amendment and one upon
the issuing of special irrigation bonds,
which interest all persons west of the
Missouri particularly. Kerr's bill pro.
hibiting the payment for names signed
to initiated or referred measures was
lost in the Senate, but one has passed
making it necessary to take oath of such
signature, which may meet defeat in the
House.
All members of the Legislature have
been much excited this week over tho
finding ofa plate deposited by Versn-
drye, the French explorer, at Ft. Pierre
in l74l, when this region belonged to
France, and perhaps the State will pur-
chase the valuable relic from the finder.

CHAUTAUQUA FOR CUSTER.

That Custer is a live and progressive
town was we'll demonstrated last Tues
day when negotiations were made with
the Redpath- Horner Chautauqua Sys-
tenn for 5-day Chautauqua to be held in
this city some time during the summer,
probably the first week in July.
At meeting of citizens Monday even
ing q definite plan and proposition was
presented by Mr.. J. A. Bumstsad, rep
resentatiye of the Redpath company
which later resulted in final contract.
Those who were present were most en-
thusiastic about the proposition and it
was with little difficulty that the requir-
ed number of signatures were secured
the following day. A permanent Chau-
tauqua Association will be affected at q
later date which will cooperate with the
company in making this the biggest and
most successful celebration ever held in
Custer.
A large canvass tent capable of seating
], 200 people will be provided as an audi
torium and will likely be located at a
convenient spot near the town. There
will be afternoon and evening programs
for the five days as well as special feat
ure called the Junior Chautauqua each
morning under the direction of Mrs.
Helen Bradford Paulsen, who is said to
be the most efficient playground dirsc-
tor in Chautauqua work. There will be
at least eleven distinct attractions
chosen from the very best talent on the
American platform, among which will
be the Royal Italians Guard Band with
the famous LaCerenza leader. The
balance of the Numbers have not
been definitely arranged but will be an
nounced at an early date.
The Redpath Company is the Oldest
and largest Lyceum and Chautauqua
institution in the country and will oper.
ate over half the entire number of Chau,
tauquas in the United States this sum.
msr. The reputation maintained by
this company is sufficient evidence that
Custer is to have real treat in enter
tainmsnt, music and oratory. 1t ID
hoped that everyone will lend theil
heartisst support to this new movement
so that it may be made an annual affair
Certainly no other town in the country
has a more attractive and beautiful loca
tion for an annual entertainment anc
assembly, and with Sylvan Lake as ar
additional inducemsnt it is expected
there will be large number of visitor
| in attendance.

Bills. Doings Of the

Pierre, Feb. 26.-Stats Land Commits
sioner Brinker tonight resigned after he
bad been arrested on charge of obtain
ing money under false pretsnses. He il

fined to the item of automobile hire

a matter of but few hundred dollars, it
is practically as serious as if it were
thousands. Brinksr is accused of hav-
ing padded the expense accounts of his

NEW YORK, Oct. r-.-Not for many years has any new fabric caused so great a sensation and such general enthusiasm as Duvetlne the wonderful new material which was brotght out in Paris this season and is rayed about by every dressmaker and wrapmaker on both sides of the Atlantic So light and soft is Duv. etlne that 1t may be drawn thrpugl a tracelet, and the pIash-like stuS clings Rs softly and Imply about the figure as would wet cheesecioth There Is, Indeed, a sleek, ripping ef. feet about this fabric, when draped on the figure, that suggests velvet material dipped in water, though Duvetine 5S much softer and thinner even than panne velvet
 There is a rather interesting story connected with this new material. Last season a new weave of velour de laine was placed in the market. which quickly became popular. but soon it was found that the material was not quite pliable enEugh for the clinging style in vogue Rodier. the great fabric designers, realizing that this velour de laine would have a great future if 1t could be made softer and more pliable. He studied the problem. experimented and Duv. etine, as he called the new fabric was the result He placed the new material with the famous dresSmak- CTS and they were delighted with 1t But, in some way, the secret leaked out; the fabric was copied and placed in the market under the same name. Not lIntil then it was found that Rodier had taken out a patent on the fabTfc.
 Duvetine may be used for the most exquisite gowns and wraps and comes in many delightful colors and shades. No material is more appro- priate for afternoon wraps and more effective than Duyetiue in some dark shade combined with a lining of gor- eeous hues. These brilliant Innings are a feature of dark afternoon wraps this season, and give an effect of luxury and warmth when the wrap is thrown over a chair behind It's wearer. Needless to say, the gown must be carefully selected. if a clash ing inharmony of color is not to be the result when one sits against such a background. The woman who studies important little effects in dress is always particular about her backdrounds and does siot wear a pink frock against a wrap lining showing purple flowers on a red ground
 Afternoon wraps this season do not
