Hogan spun round and began run

was a gathering mob Of men. Hogan
reached the outskirts Of the crowd and
began to force his way through.

There is an opportunity to fit up
very cozy sitting room, which may
be used separately or in connection
with the parlor, as desired. A win
dow seat to fit in the bay, reaching
clear across the three windows, looks
well, and, If properly made, is very
comfortable. Windows seats are used
in the winter more than in summer;
and they should be built accordingly.
There is more or less draft or at

the window seat should be protected
by the back, which may extend up
three or four inches above the win

Lincolnshire, England, recently. A

are paid the rent money is spent in

The shops were nearly all closed, but flags floated over every doorway, giving the city gala appearance even though the streets were al- most deserted.
 We lived for two weeks al- most in the shadow of the Louvre, but saw only the outside. However, we visit ed the churches of Notre Dame de Paris, Sacre Colur, The TuillerieS, the famous drive of Les Champs Elysies, L'Arc de Triomphe, La Place de la Concorde (where the guillotine was placed dur ing the French Revolution), the BaStile, now a large, open square with a monument to the heroes of the revolution.
 We spent a day at Yer sailles, gay with visitors to the soldiers stationed there. Unfortunately, a drizzling rain fell most of the time. making it impossible for us to see all of the wonderful gardens and monuments.
 The day we left Paris we visited Napoleon's tomb (which was closed), the Lux embourg Gardens, and the Pantheon. The only monu- ment that we were fortunate enough to enter, and which we discovered quite by acci- dent, was the tomb of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI. It was here that we saw the tombS of the Swiss Guards that 1 mentioned before.
 Nothing can efface the charming memory of the view by day-more beautiful by night-of the Seine with the Louvre on one bank, and the Ilede Ia Cite,' with the towers of Notre Dome point ing upward, and the search lights sweeping the horizon in search of the enemy that we thought still at Liege.

For several months was in bad shape Whenever l stopped over to shoe a horse, I could not straighten without great pain. At times had to walk on my hands and knees. I was nearly down and out when Doan's Kidney Pills were recon mended to me. I got box and used them. From the first they did me good and soon my kidneys and back were in good shape.

There is something about Yuma and most other Ari- zona towns which must com mend itself. The people do not easily become unduly eX, cited or inordinately cast down. They do not rise to heights of exaltation and they do not sink to the depths of depression. That is why we have never had 5ooniS and consequent, or at leaSr subsequent, panics.
 Theatrical actors have com plained that Yuma audiences are cold, at least, not highly demonstrative, and evangel- iStS have complained that we could not rise to that degree of religious exaltation with which their efforts in other places had been crowned. The people are not apathetic;

GASOLINE GAR FOR
 THE VALLEY RAILROAD

The reclamation service has added modern gasoline car for the valley railroad line; and it sure is a work of art. It will be used between Yuma and GaGsden, the end of the road, nineteen miles from Yuma, and five miles from the Mexican bounaTy.
 The car is one of the latest built modern in every way-is made of steel, and shaped like bullet, with small round windows and an entrance on the side of the car. In appearance, it suggests an armored fighting car, and, indeed it would make a good one for the transportation of troops.
 Yuma must be congratulated on the beautiful addition to the rolling stock. It is presumed that the car can travel equal to the modern automobile, ai- lowing for the greater size and weight The car at present is stand' ing on the valley branch track near the reclamation headquarters.

FABRICS IF TIE PAST ARE THE
 RE|GN|NG FABRICS OF TO-DAY
RRocADEs EVENING GOWNS; RRoADcLoTH IS ANOTHER THAT RENEWED VOGUE THIS YEAR; THE NEW STYLE IN SHOES TOES AND HIGH HEELS.

NEW YORK, NOV. 11.-Special to the Yuma Daily Examiner-There are far less new fabrics upon the market this season than last. The variety however, does not seem to be lessen ed, for it merely means that instead of the new we have gone back to many of the fabrics which have Been con sidered passe for many seasons.
 Velour de laines and ratine are re- cent novelties which have held their own. This year they have become thicker and the pile of the velour de laine is heavier, making it seem al- most plush like.
 Broadcloth is another fabric that has a renewed vogue this year, and many suits and costumes are to be seen of it. The chiffon broadcloth, which is light weight in comparison with the other broadcloth, is used extensively for one-piece dresses. Black, blue, green, beige and mauve are colors which are especially attractive in the broadcloth.
 Faille, once called Ottoman ana ben galine, is very popular in silk or wool. It has a suppleness and a firmness which make it especially suited to the one-piece frock. The clothes of the season are what determines the fabrics and this year the one-piece frocks and separate coats cause fabrics supple and substantial to be the mode.
 There is serge, the standby of de cades, gebardine and fabrics which have long-haired silky finish called kittens ear, peau de souris (mouse skin), and zibeline. Velvet, imitation mole and Persian lamb cloth complete a wide variety of the smart fabrics for the daylight hours.
 The jumper effect in dresses which is so popular at the present time, adds another happy way of combining fab rics and colors. In faille silk comes a long tuniced frock with a pleated lower skirt and jumper basque waist. The sleeves and underarms of this waist are of soft silk with Paisley design.

 Plaids in gray and festive colors are always a bright note in the seasons when they are popular. In greens and blues with touch of red or yellow they may be used to advantage for the winter frock, primarily for home wear, but which may fill many wants under a stylish sepaarte coat. The model illustrated is in dark green with blue and black stripe checked off with nar- row lines of red.

nous by the poet, Byron. We were led first to the dun geon where the prisoner hat spent so many years; then taken to the dining room of the castle, with it's carved ceiling, great fire place and wonderful antique tables where justice was administer ed. We were shown the vari- ous towers and Qualifications, which dated from the Middle Ages.
 We continued our journey by rail and stopped at Berne, where we were fortunai> enough to see the famous clock strike twelve. The va riouS figures on the tower were put in motion, the cock croWed, the bear danced, sur rounded by a circle of little nymphs, and old Father Time reversed his hour glass.
 After we left Berne, we en- joyed a steamer ride on Lake Thum to Interlocken, where we spent several days. The weather was not conducive to mountain climbing on ac- count of the rain and mist, so most of the party spent the time in the quaint shops.
 We left Interloken by the steamer on Lake Brienz, on past wonderfully beautiful, forest-clad mountains and lacy" waterfalls; then by a cog-wheel road over the grand Brunig Pass to Lu- cerne. This city, although large, keeps a certain quaint ness that is so characteristic of Swiss scenery and archi- lecture.
 We visited the famous Lion of Lucerne," a monu- ment cut in the side of the mountain in honor of the Swiss Guards that were kill ed in France. We were for tunate to see their tombs, later, in Paris.
 The 31st of July we spent on Lake Lucerne, at the head of which we visited the love ly statue of William Tell and his son, at Altdorf. We walk ed about three miles over the Oxenstrasse, a magnificent road built along the shores of the lake, to Tells Chapel, where we journeyed back to Lucerne by steamer.
 That evening we first heard of the war; and the next day, having left the par ty (which, by the way, ven- tured into Germany, we started on our forty-hour journey to Paris.
 Paris, even under the war cloud that lowered so near, was wonderfully beautiful.

doubled white organdy.

doubled white organdy.
 Brocades which embody in them. selves all the sumptuousness of a cen tury ago are the fabrics used for eve ming gowns.
 On heavy silk, thin voile, chiffon or velvet, gold and silver threads are woven into the brocade designs. There are also velvet brocaded voiles and chiffons with bit of gold or silver in or outlining the design. These bro cades are not stiff as of old, but soft and pliable, draping most artistically.
 Black satin, faille and velvet hold a strong place among evening gowns. These are frightened by the use of rib bon sashes in vivid shades, as well as by the wonderful Roman striped ribbons and silks which are very popu- lar Some of the newest of these show the Autumn note in their combinations of ursset brown, green and dull red with always a stripe of black. This new color scheme is also to be seen in tn new taffetas. Taffeta, by the way, is used a great deal in combination with serge and gebardine
 For the younger generation come chiffon voiles with six or eight-inch satin stripe in self color woven on the edge. Tunics and flounces are made with this stripe on the edge and with the plain voile for the rest of the frock. These voiles come in all the light shades so popular for evening wear, soft blues, shell pinks, varying shades of green and in yellow that so closely resembles gold that it hardly seems possible that it is not metal cloth.
 The costumes at present demand many accessories in the way of neck wear, and the present tendency in these dainty lace and organdy affairs is toward the cape effects. Fichu eff fects are also to be seen and are an attractive addition to a dark frock of serge, gebardine or satin. On the pop ular dark blue frocks are to be seen cuffs and collars in yellow crepe or ecru linen. One set of ecru linen had turnback cuffs and standing collar hemstitched in an inch-wide hem. An other set was of white linen with vel low stripes about a quarter of an inch apart The collar was high and die not meet in the front, while the turn back cuffs were wide and pointed. The edges of collar and cuffs were bound with yellow to match the stripe in the linen.
 There has been a good deal of talk about the advent of low-heeled shoes. but, except for the walking shoes with rubber soles and spring, or very low heels they have not appeared. Short vamped shoes are again appearing, with high French or Vienna heels. The Vienna heel is quite the newest heel and is neither Grench, Cuban nor Mex ican. It is high, narrow and straight and looks pinched.
 A new shoe model which is having a vogue among the people who allow themselves the luxury of changing witt every whim of the merry jestress Dame Fashion, is square toed and with
