PHOTO FRAMES OF ALL KINDS
Imitation Ivory is the Material In Most
Use and Every Variety of Shape
Is Employed.

Photograph frames, of all small
ornaments, are most practical for the
dweller In furnished lodgings, as they
take up scarcely any space, give a
honey touch to the room and are
easily packed when preparations for
fitting are in progress. A compost
ton strongly resembling old ivory is
used for photograph frames of dla-
mond, heart, circular, square and oval
shapes. None of these frames are very
large, but all are of a size that Will
satisfactorily surround the face of a
friend. Some of them are all-lVory or
tone and others show quaint little
floral patterns done in colored enamel.
Wholly of enamel are square or oval
frames for vignette photographs and
for miniatures, and of the same size
and shape are others of white crystal
picked out with colored stones in
jewel effects.
Almost literally from the opposite
ends of the earth come fascinating
photograph frames covered with fab
RIGS. Those characteristic of the ORR.
ent are of Chinese and Japanese hand
embroideries on linen or silk, and they
are of wondrous tone harmonies. Those
from France are of rose Dubarry tap
estry or of satin brocade yelled and
embroidered with gold tinsel.

- DITCH roughed it for six months
III in the Klondike in 1901, meet
ing all Corners. He departed
from the little old farm house
south Of Humboldt empty handed
He returned with a bag of gold and
Canadian paper valued at $4,000.
His wrestling triumphs in that Arctic
region ranged from a defeat OF a
bully to victory over the champion
grappler of the Yukon.
One of the Butler brothers, wealthy
miners, tried to persuade Farmer
Burns to accompany him to the Klon-
dixie. Burns declined but gave Gotch
such glowing account Of the great
fortunes to be made on the Yukon
that Gotch decided to go.
The Humboldt farmer lad was
known in the Klondike as Frank
Kennedy, one of the host of miners
washing gold dust from the sand, He
passed month or more as placer
miner before opportunity knocked at
his door opening the way to an in
dependent fortune.
had a bully. This fellow was not a
wonderful wrestler, but had a habit
of intimidating other miners by a
show of strength and bull dog cour-
age. Gotch had not been in camp
many weeks before he had run
in" with the bully. Gotch rushed into
his traducer, grabbed him around the
waist and hurled him to the ground.
Then he pinned him with a hammer
lock until he cried for mercy.
The story of Gotch's victory over
this dad man" caused much excite
ment. Billy Murdoch, champion
wrestler of the camp, challenged him
to a finish match. The challenge was
accepted and the whole camp turned
out to see the young strangers finish.
The bout was held in saloon. 1t
lasted just four minutes. Murdoch,
to the surprise of the miners, was
thrown heavily and pinned to the
floor in such decisive fashion as to re-
move all doubt as to who was cham
pion wrestler of those diggings.
Gotch's fame spread to other camps
and he was challenged by two wrest-
lers named Riley and Murphy. The
matches were for $4,000, the mysteri-
GUS stranger agreeing to throw both

in half the time.

shoe box to the officer, with the re-

ranged in price from $50 to $125.
There were petticoats of crepe de
chine, too, of the same exquisite char
acter and chemises so cleverly fitted
that the old reproach of overfullness
could not possibly be aimed at them.
Petticoats partake of the general
shrinkiness and fit smoothly around
band and hips, falling in soft, clinging
folds below The extremes in petit
coat models have flounces of soft chif-
fon or mousseline attached to close
fitting skirts of crepe, or satin reach
ing to the knees or little below, and
there is no support under these sort
f1ounces, so that the dress skirt may
fall with the approved limpness about
the feet.
The new muslin petticoats are OF
fine, soft material, free from stiffen-
ing. They are fitted as smoothly as
possible over the hips and down to the
top of the deep fiounce, which is
shaped affair, set on to the body OF
the skirt quite smoothly. OF course
they widen toward the bottom, but
merely in gentle ripple, without sug-
gestion of bouffancy or crispness, and
the trimming Of the founce is fat, or,
bordered frills are used. These frills
are of soft lace, which gives only the
most subdued Of frou-frou fiuffiness.
Nightgowns seem lovelier than ever
before. The Empire model has the
lines most in favor, and a host of pref
ty models show slightly short waist
lines, instead Of falling straight from
the shoulders or a yoke. Some of the
gowns built upon the Empire line have
the entire upper part of the garment
formed Of lace. The joining line be-
tween lace and material is hidden by
a wide beading, through which ribbon
is run.

were told of the wonderful prowess
of the youngster from the States"
There was a wrestler in Dawson
named White who had the reputation
of being the second best in the Yukon
country. He challenged Gotch to a
finish match for $4,000. Just to adver.
tise himself and get match with the
champion. Gotch agreed to throw
White three times in an hour.
Gotch rushed in at the call OF time
and drove White to the edge OF the
mat. White went down in a heap and
Gotch tried for bar arm. White
darted out and then put Gotch to the
mat with a crotch hold GOtch was
up instantly, his wonderful strength
enabling him to break a waist hold.
Then he went to the top and gained
partial hammerlock. White spun out
of this dangerous grip and came to
the top once more, the miners giving
him a big hand. White hung on and
Gotch raised up with his antagonist
on his back, an exhibition of
strength that made the miners gasp
with establishment. White threw
Gotch to the mat, and both came to
their feet in desperate mixup.
Gotch rushed in, grasped his oppo-
nent by the legs, dangled him in the
ali and then bore his shoulders to
the mat for the first fall after five
minutes of wrestling.
Going to it again Gotch rushed
White to the ropes and secured leg
hold and the Dawson wrestler went
to the mat Gotch fastened a double
nelson which the Dawson wrestler
broke with difficulty. Gotch finally
pinned his man for the second fall
in eight minutes.
The miners who had laid heavy
bets on White were panic-stricken.
Gotch was not only surprise-he
was a sensation. When White came
up wobbLr for the final bout it was
plain he could not last much longer.
Gotch rushed him and when he was
about to fall from the mat, he caught
him, pulling him back, and saving
him possible injury. White broke
many holds but finally succumbed to
his more powerful opponent in sos
This match set the whole mining
region of the Yukon talking about
Gotch. 1t enabled him to secure a
match for the championship of Alas
ka and the Klondike.
