wearing cotton frocks.- Here In Wash
tngton, through suggestion on the
part of Miss Genevieve Clark. the IA
nous buy cotton goods idea was
started. and a national impetus has
been given to the sale of cotton fabrics
by a special fashion show at which 1t
was demonstrated how very charming
and practical a material cotton stuff
can be. not only for midsummer. but
for midwinter, spring and autumn also.
This interesting exhibit attracted not
only the business contingent, but also
the social factions. Many society lead
ers from New York and Philadelphia
attended. and everywhere were ex-
CARNATIONS of pleasure over the display
of smartly made costumes, all of cot
ton-woven stuff. Miss Genevieve
Clark. kindly sponsor for the new cot
ton baby that society has adopted with
enthusiasm, wore a most charming
frock of cotton-proof in itself of the
desirability of this type of fabric for
costumes of distinction. Another
fetching cotton toilet was worn by
Mrs. Daniels, wife of the Secretary Of
the Navy. and other authoritative cot
ton creations were exploited by one Of
Washington's society women.
In a few weeks every woman will be
wanting a frock of the new filete, the
new cotton weave indorsed last spring
by Paris and seen first at the race
meets at Auteuil and Longchamps.
Filete is silky-surfaced cotton ma
terial with cords or heavy threads that
give a variety of striped effects. When
the cords are close together on close
ly woven ground filete is heavy enough
for winter wear even out of doors.
BY weaving the cords in sheer ground
flete becomes diaphanous stuff, suit
BILE for the most sultry weather.
At first flete was used for waistcoats
d nd for facings and revers on smart
tailleurs: then its possibilities became
apparent as a costume material. 1t
comes in white and In very charming
color effects, and since American man
ufacturers have taken it up 1t is no
longer so expensive as it was last
spring. when the couturiers were using
very little of it for waistcoats and
trimmings.
The very first entire frock of ilete
was made by Cheruit. who Is always
the lookout for something new In
the fabric line to lend individuality to
her graceful costumes Another cot
ton-woven frock of high distinction
was turned out by the Wiener Werk-
statte an organization of artist dress
makers in Vienna. This frock is of
printed black and white cotton and
was one of the first long-waisted
basque models with sleeves of con-

with black velvet; a most charming

Says Noah Ate the
 Forbidden Fruit

LONDON.-What is claimed to be the original account from which the Bible story of the flood was taken has been discovered by Dr.. Langdon. professor of Assyriology at Oxford, among a number of early Babylonian tablets unearthed at Nip pur.
 The tablet, inscribed with the Genesis story of the forty days rain, also contains reference to the fall of man brought about by his eating certain fruit. this being the first reference to the fall found in Babylonian literature.
 In this narrative 1t is Noah and not Adam, who. tempted. falls. The tree of Knowledge is identified with Cassia, the most important medicin- al plant of antiquity.

Rich ground has been uncovered on the property of the Cache Creek Mining company which is situated on the creek from which the com pany takes it's name, and, according to s. I. Silverman who arrived in Seward recently, James Murray has rocked out large amount from ground which had lain under tail ngs for some time.
 Mr. Murray put two men to work right near the house and on the first day they rocked out $12o, On the second day they rocked $50, but the third day made a record, the amount washed up for that one day. work being $3OO These splendid cleanups have proven the ground to be even richer than supposed and big things are expected.
 Mir. Silverman has been absent eighteen days and in that time he has been all over Cache creek and the country tributary to it. He says that all the miners in that dis trict are doing we'll and will have good cleanups this summer.-Seward Gateway.

GOOD WORK IS
 BEING DONE
 BY ROAD CREW

According to reports received in road crew of the Alaska Road com mission which is working at Hot Springs and vicinity under the direc- tion of Ed. Hendrickson, has been doing some excellent work there. Particularly is the work praised by the teamsters who use the roads. the most. it being the concurrence of opinion among them that the trails they have to travel over were never in better condition, although some work still remains to be done upon them.
 A great deal of bridge repair work has been done on the Hot Springs Eureka road by Mir. Hendrickson and his crew. It consisted chiefly of minor repairs to most bridges al though complete new structure had to be put up at the crossing of Baker creek, II miles from the Springs.
 The bridge Is of poles and is 80 feet in length with a crib support in the center of the stream. The work of installing 1t was made nee essary by the high water at the breakup period, the ice running in Baker creek sweeping away the old bridge.
 At the present time the road crew is engaged in repairing and building trail on Sullivan creek On that stream there are several miles of trail which must be cor need repairing.

Misplaced Sympathy.

A few years ago the Pirates had a player named Miller who was only a sub, and in those days subs didn't draw down an enormous salary Miller was delayed on one trip and had to follow by later train to catch up with the team. It un- fortunately happened that there was a slight wreck and Miller was one of the injured, his leg being broken. It was clear case of negligence on the part of the road and Miller had very little trouble in arranging a nice settlement with the claim agent.
 When the team arrived home Wagner made it his business to hunt up Miller, who was still on crutches.
 "Im sorry, kid" said Hans, "to hear about your accident"
 Gee, Wagner, you're nice sort of a fellow. Don't you want a guy to make some easy money now and then?" replied Miller.

Strike is Rich.

Whitehorse Star: Edmonton, Alta July 24-"Richer than anything yet uncovered in the Yukon country" is the value placed by Frank Pier ent, a veteran prospector, upon the gold discovery he made in the Laird river district, 1,50O miles north west of Edmonton Pierent, who is now in the capital city of Alberta, outfitting for an expedition into the uneXplored northland, reports that the field will be developed by Canadian and English capital.
 Pierent has been prospecting in northern British Columbia and the extreme southern portions of the Yukon territory since 1909, passing two years on the upper waters of the Laird river, during which time he did not meet a white man. He said:
 "The difficulties of reaching that district are enormous and are great ly increased by the unfriendly atti- tude of the Indians It was not until two years ago that they began to accept treaty money. Since then they have been more friendly, but even yet it is difficult to secure a guide who will travel all through the country.
 'I prospected up and down the banks of the Laird river, Fort Nelson river Sikanni river and Mashika rivers The country is practically unexplored on the latest maps, the rivers being merely dotted, uncertain lines. In the north of British Col umbia on all maps there shows a vast stretch of country unbroken by mark of river or lake"
 While travelling along the Sikanni river, Pierent's canoe upset and the outfit was lost. He was swept down the river a quarter mile before he reached shore, being severely bruis- ed by dashing against the rocks. Two days later he reached an Indian encampment where he obtained food.
 Pierent refuses to disclose the To, cation of his discovery, except to say it is in the Laird district. "1t is the richest find l have ever seen, ' he added, and l have been prospect ing and mining for 20 years"
 Pierent came to Edmonton by way of the Peace river. making the trip from the Laird along nameless riv CTS in northern British Columbia until he struck the Findlay river and thence easterly to Peace River Crossing. From that point he fol lowed the trail to Edmonton by way of Grouard and Athabasca.
