extending down to
form the outer stripes of the
rnuff, which is fashioned of the
same silky zibeline used for
the suit.
The skirt is simple circu-
lar affair, with a slight up
ward draping into a narrow,
half belt at the back.
The coat is cut single

to hem with large crocheted
buttons.
The collar is a Robespierre,
with tiny cords extending
from its front corners and end
ing in balls of the astrakhan

trim the bretelles and muff.
The feature of the suit is, of
course. he combination collar

from a deep yokelike point in
the back, crosses the shout

inner edge is in turn banded
with the fur, and down the
center of which is an applique
braiding in applied points.
A crossbar extends across

The muff is made in five
panels-the outer ones being
the continuation of the shoul-

JOHNSON RAILROAD
UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Lewiston, Idaho, April 26.-(Spec-
ialD-The actual construction work
on the johnson road from Lewiston
to Volimer was commenced this week
at a point along Snake river immedi-
ately south Of the city. The con-
struction camp is located along the
Snake river near the uiG county pest
house and the work was commenced
in the cut a short distance this side
of the camp. The first work will
consist of raising the old grade of
the Lewiston and Southeastern and
new grade will be constructed from
a point near the pest house into the
Tammany canyon
At the time the survey of the Snake
river section of the line was made, it
was discovered that the old grade
dropped considerably from a point
near the pest house to the mouth of
Tammany creek and a new location
was made which provides for a steady
climb from the city to the Tammany
canyon. The new line enters the
canyon almost a mile from the river
and the crossing Of the creek TO high
bench lands is made on a 5-foot tres
tie. The climb will be steady and
a about the same per cent from the
city until point well up in the Tam
many valley is reached, when the
grade will be increased to reach the
highlands of the Waha prairie.
The farmers in the prairie coun-
try are ardent boosters for the John
son road and will give the movement
to extend the line from Vollmer to
Lewiston substantial support" said
G. W. Felt, the well-known Nez
Perce merchant. who was a business
visitor in the city yesterday.
THE value Of the Johnson road to
the upper country has been proved
through the operation of the line
from VOllmer to Nez Perce but the
view is held by the farmers and bus
mess Interests of the prarie country
that the greatest benefits will come
when the line is extended to Lewiston
and connection with the open river
steamers Is effected. The appropria-
tiOn of congress which provides for
the completion Of the Cello canal
and the general disposition of the de-
partment TO improve the Snake and
upper Columbia rivers will give Lew
iston water transportation during
practically all of the year and the
people of the upper country want to
be prepared to enjoy the benefits Of
the open river service"
