Armed Homesteader Gets Claim.

st. Paul, April 30.-Rather than go
to war with n of it's own citizens,
the state of Minnesota has paid the
full claim of Charles Bourke, who has
been keeping watch on one of the
states dredges in Kittson county with
a rifle in his hand. He has accepted
payment and the dredge has been
turned over to e. V. Willard, state
drainage engineer. The man guarded
the dredge with as much care as John
Deitz guarded Cameron dam. When
ever anyone came near he was warned
by Bourke to leave or take the con.
sequences.

REVIVAL OF BISHOP SLEEVE
to the Pulled Styles Popular
Some Seasons Ago.

There seems to be quite revival In
bishop sleeves, though the top pun
so far is not full enough to call much
attention to the fashion. In one OF
the beautiful gowns seen at display
of autumn dress the sleeve was of the
old-fashioned bishop. shape, with
tight-fitting cuff to the elbow and fun
puff from there to the shoulder. 1t
made a pleasant change, and the puff
was not too full to be aggressive or to
break in any way the slim silhouette
of modern dress.
In neckwear a noticeable feature is
the black tulle ruffle made for wear
with white gowns. The ruffle is really
a fixture, and it is shaped like a
Robespierre collar. the ends being
fastened with plain tulle gathered in
with jet The black ruffle makes a
pretty addition to the white gown, and
II looks remarkably we'll on dresses
of other hues. such as maise, green,
certain shades of brown, blue and
pink, particularly old rose.

When making sandwiches, it is best

keep fresh quite long time.
Wet shoes should be stuffed with
paper before they are put away; they
