Tuesday afternoon. The wagon was
completely wrecked and one of the
horses had a leg broken and was hurt

was shot at the command Of the con-

and overturned several times, but was
not badly hurt. The driver jumped
just before the engine struck and was
unhurt. The train was not travel

shut off and the engine was not max

Judge Davis, president of the city
commission, was accosted by Henry
Phillips on the street Wednesday af-
ternoon, and the fact that he ducked
just in time, was al that saved Phillips
from receiving terrific punch on the
head. The president has refused to
grant licenses to Phillips Bros. to op-
crate their pool hall and bowling al

violated in their place of business.
Phillips grew wrathy and informed
Mr.. Davis that this was no nice way
to do and explained that the law hae!
not been violated since Mr.. Davis be-
came the city's head. Mr.. Davis re-
piled that that did not make any diff
ference, that he did not intend to is
sue the license unless compelled to
do so, whereupon the president claims

At the meeting Of the directors of
the club the paving question occupied
good deal Of attention. The North
ern Pacific has taken Q lot Of interest
in helping Mandan on the paving
proposition, and to the end that this
city might be informed as to what
other cities are doing, the engineer
ing department Of the Northern Pa
cific gathered . lot Of data and for
warded it with copies Of letters from
various cities.
The city engineer Of Minneapolis
suggests that brick or concrete block
is the ideal paving for . small city.
The public works department Of st.
Paul also favors brick and concrete.
The Grand Forks engineer recon-
nfends concrete built in fifteen foot
squares as the most feasible and least
expensive paving, while the city en-
gineer Of Fargo speaks nightly Of
the bithulithic paving. President
Lanterman told of a conversation he
had had with Mayor Murphy Of Grand
Forks in which he highly recommend
ed the concrete paving. This could be
put down for something like $1.25 q

SPRING NOTE.

In evening dress. though we are being
bored by the eternal repetition Of the
satin fourreau and the ninon tunic-in
spite of the oft repeated assertion that
tunics are "out"-there is really an ex.
traordinary variety Of styles. From the
draped robs more than slightly bouffani
and wide across the hips to the clingins
sheath every form Of line or Of drapery
seems to be permitted. and coloring was
never so gay as 1t Is now. The mingiins

1t impossible for the commonplace Of
monotony to intrude itself. and the IN

A beaded bag that hangs by bracelet

Even more simple is a dress snapped
at one of the early spring races, depend
ing on its graceful color contrast Of

swathes the body, falling in long fringed

the hat worn with this dress. 1t is Of
black straw with combination ornament
of feathers and aigrettes posed at the
back.
The other dress is of the fashionable
bronze color. Made of bronze charmeuse,
the skirt Is pleated into the waist line in
apparently careless fashion and caught up
at the left side. This, however, does not
alter the evenness of the hem. With drop
shoulder seam and a modified surplice
front the blouse part is decidedly graceful
and original in detail. An overshoulder
seam makes the surplice part seem like a
vest, though of the same material, and
three buttons posed at either side and with
narrow embroidery ornaments take away
from the plainness. A tiny yoke and upper
collar of white embroidered net give q
tightening touch to the neck finish. The
cuffs, made of two lace ruffles connected
by an insertion, are crossed by bias brace
lets of the charmeuse. Wide satin folded
into pleats makes the belt, finishing with

material.
Directly from Paris, the models shown
on this page indicate the great variety
that is found in the detail of these smart
spring models. No. has a black satin
skirt gathered into the waist line in the
back and brought up into draped folds in
front, the edges crossing, the lower curved
corners thus allowing for ease in walking.
The bolero is of a white crepen design
that nearly covers a black ground, and is
faced with black satin on the lower edges,
as are the odd shaped cuffs. The sleeve
seam is piped with satin and the coat
closes without crossed edges caught by a
white cotton ornament. The smallish hat
has a rolled brim, and ribbon strand and
bow holds in place a cluster of curled
birds plumes.
No. 2 in the same photograph has the
new skirt already spoken of. These new
skirts often have the air of being the

blue taffeta the lower part of the skirt
is of blue plaid, the plain taffeta forming
the bolero and the upper tunic part of
the skirt, which acquires the modish
flare by two bias folds posed at the
edge of the short, plain yoke. The coat
is braided and is dotted with little crochet

fringe drops from the waist at the back.
A white collar with little rosette fasten-
