one Of the new opportunities
which are having such success
in Paris. These picturesque garments
are made in various forms and in
many different lengths. but the model
have drawn is one OF the leading
favorites, writes Idalia de Viliiers In
the Boston Globe.
Here you have mantle which Is
graceful, practical and eminently be-
coming to slender figures. The model
shown in my sketch was created by
Beer. 1t was made of cherry-red anna
zon cloth and the mantle was lined
with shot taffeta which showed shades
OF red. blue and silver.
This mantle had a gilet, or waist
coat, attached in front. and narrow
waist belt held this gilet In place.
The muslin blouse opened over a vest
finished with high Medici collar and
this blouse was cut down In gen
erous V and bordered with plated
frills.
At the spring race meetings man.
ties of this kind are very generally
worn. The Parisiennes carry them
with infinite grace and they are GER
tain to remain In fashion all through
the summer and autumn seasons.
Charming nantes Of similar de-
sign are being made of charmeuse IN
dark. rich colors; these cloaks are
frequently lined with printed silks
which show scrolls and conventional
flowers thrown against pale ground
A thin make Of velours de laine is
also much used in this connection,
and, for smart afternoon wraps, mir
ror velvet.

At the Ritz hotel | saw lovely
car -mantle made of St.awberry-red
cashmere. The border was embroid-
cred in black and white silks and the
cloak was lined throughout with black
satin. The costume underneath was
in black taffetas, draped skirt fin
ished of with semi-transparent
corsage Of black chiffon mounted over
white tulle.
The toque which accompanied this
dress was one Of the new torpedo
shapes in coarse black straw. and 1t
was trimmed with immensely high
black and white wings. The whole
get up" was charmingly festive and
original At the same restaurant l
saw Princess Gerard de Faucingy-
Lucinge wearing a most perfect tall
ored suit composed of leaf green
Amazon cloth and black silk braid
The skirt was plated at the sides
and the coat was very long, reaching
to the knees at the back and round
ing away to nothing In front There
was a directoire waistcoat IF black
and white striped taffetas and little
lat.brimmed hat In black straw,
trimmed with a mass q black and
crimson cherries.
At another table Nine. Paul De-
schanel, the wife of the president OF
the French ''Chambre des Deputies"
was entertaining party OF friends.
Nine Deschansl is a very striking
| looking woman. tall and commanding,
with a superb figure and an imperious
manner. She understands the art Of
dress to perfection and never fails to
make a sensation wherever she goes.

child, although some doubt exists on
that point.
In the autumn of 1879 the members
of the M. E.. church founded a society
and held church services and Sunday
school in Hops hall. Rev. J. w.
Dibble was the first pastor.
DR.. G.. A. Kelsey erected the first
substantial residence in the present
corporate limits in September, 1879.
and which stands on the crest of
the hill east of the city.
The first fair was held during the
fall of 1880 on the ground south of the
Kelsey residence just north of the rail
road track.
The Bank of Bookings was estab-
lished by George Morehouse in the
spring of 1880 and the Odds e Fish
back building, occupied by Miss
HOLSTER, was also erected the same
spring. Olds & Fishback engaged in
the mercantile and private banking
business and the second story of their
building gave Bookings it's first opera
house.
Among the chief promoters IL the
enterprise of locating a town at this
point and securing the county seat for
B%rookings w. II. Skinner, now in the
west, stands among the foremost and
he was ~tireless in his efforts.
The city of Bookings was incorpor-
ated under special act of the legisla-
ture in April, 1881. Among the promi-
nent business men who took the initia-
tive step in establishing city govern
ment were: r. H. Williams, G.. w.
Pierce. Drs. Higgins and Kelsey, G. w.
Hopp, w. II. Skinner, w. G. Lockhart,

THE COMMERCIAL CLUE

This issue would not be complete
without a mention of the Commercial
Club Of Brookings:
The club is composed of a bunch of
over two hundred real live boosters.
1t has demonstrated it's fitness to live
by having passed. its infancy and prov
ing it's ability to accomplish many
things for the benefit of the city and
vicinity. There has been no necessity
for reviviving it since it was organized
in April, 1910, for it was then estab-
lished on what was considered a sound
financial basis and has maintained a
comfortable balance in it's treasury
during the four years of it's existence.
The membership fee is $40 and the an
nual dues SIS, payable in monthly in
stallments.
At present the membership numbers
over two hundred and the club began
the year with several hundred dollars

necessary to purchase the LAM was
raised. There was considerable rival-
nv between the north and south sides
of town as to where the college should
be located, but the eighty northeast OF
the town owned by Mrs. Randi Peter
son. was decided upon. This is where
the buildings are now located, the
other college land being purchased by
the state later.
The land being secured the next
thing was an appropriation for build
ings and maintenance. Mr.. Scobey
was reelected councilman, and was
made president of the assembly which
again met at Yankton. Despite deter
mined opposition Mr.. Scobey secured
the passage of a bill calling for 100000
for buildings, and this was passed and
approved FEBRUARY 81, 1888.
The territory did not have sufficient
revenue to meet it's running expenses
and to provide for all of the %apprepria-
lions made by the legislature, Sc the
issuance of $4,000 of Agricultural
College bonds, bearing five per cent
interest and running twenty years. c.
H. Lee of Mankato, was selected as
the architect and his plans called for
a large building facing west, with an
imposing central structure and modest

now known as Old Central is the south
wing of this proposed big building,

H. Baldridge of Des Moines, Iowa, for

building was celebrated with appro-

for many years it was retarded by a
lack of sufficient money for buildings
and equipment. Internal d~issensions
also helped to keep it back. However,
the past few years it's growth has been
rapid, due to wise administration
which has kept it out of politics, and
it has been favored with more money
for buildings and equipment. Today
it has by far the largest attendance of
any college in the state, and with the
awakening along agricultural lines it
promises to always remain the leading
educational institution of South Da-
kota.

G. w. Hopp, proprietor of the Brook
ings County Press, moved his printing
plant from Fountain, where 1t was To-
Gated, to Brookings and issued the first
paper October %, 1879. He had his
plant in Mathews and Scobey's Office,
which was located where Rogers shoe
store now Is, but he could not find
room for all his outfit and for some
time his job press stood out in the
street, but the Press fiourished and
soon occupied a building of its own
which is now occupied by f. c. Neil,
the upper story of which for about six
months was used for church services,
dances and public meetings. r. H.
Williams also erected his store build

Miss Johnson's millinery store.

w. II. Harvey, who was then living
on a homestead near Lake Campbell,

and for several weeks he had more
business than he could attend to.
The winter was one of the finest this
section has ever seen, according to
statements of old timers, who report
that building operations never ceased
a day. VIM. Allison came up from
Medary and built the Brookings house
in December, and the weather was as
warm as September. Bookings made
a substantial growth that fall and win

infant as towns went in those days.

Brookings' later history is naturally
not quite as interesting as that of the
early days. The city has grown stead

seQuently it has never had a setback.
1t has always enjoyed the reputation
of being the cleanest city in the state
and Is known far and wide as a city OF
homes and as an educational center.
The Commercial Club of Brookinys
was organized about three years ago
and has been a great factor in the UT
building of the city. At the present
time there is a decided awakening
along all lines and prospects are bright
that the city will enjoy the best build.

The first school house was built In
the spring of 1880, and Miss Stanton
was the first teacher. The building
was located on the east side of the
present school grounds. 1t is still do

When the question of erecting the
school building came up a heated dis
cussion was engaged in. Many thought
the building proposed and finally
erected was altogether too large and
that a one-story structure 24x3S would
be plenty large enough to accommo-
date all of the pupils that would seek
an education within the district limits.
The wiser element prevailed and seven
years afterward not only was the "big''
school house filled, but two other
buildings were pressed into service.
