Ennis, 6 miner who has been working un- til quite recently at the Pueblo mine, and Jack Keller, the business manager of the Daily Alaskan, left for the wilds of Dyea for a few days outing, equipped with all kinds Of fishing tackle. high-powered ele- phant guns, bedding, cooking uten- sils and grub.
 That evening they camped in the valley, about three miles north of Dyea, and bright and early the next morning, despite the heavy rain that was falling, struck out for a nearby place where they had been told by a previous hunting party that numerous fresh signs of bear sbounded. They bad not been out long when a monster black bear was discovered by Keller quietly feeding on roots and herbs in a slight depression in the hills, and he at once took a snap shot at it, but without doing the ami nal any harm. The noise, how ever, disturbed the bear and 1t started to climb nearby tree, when Keller ran up, grabbed 1t by the tail, and throwing his arms around its neck after a desperate struggle choked it to death.
 The bear at the time of it's de- mise must have been all of three months old and weighed in the neighborhood of fifty pounds
 The party returned yesterday bringing the deceased bsa-. a lone Iy duck, which they accidentiy kill ed and an orphaned blue grouse which bad been surprised while try ing to shelter itself from the rain under a patch of reindeer moss.

W. R. ROGERS ARRArGNED
FOR THE wExoN KILLING

w. R. Rogers, who was arrested at Libertyviue, Ill.,, after being in dicted in Juneau for the murder of N. H. Wixon, arrived in Juneau on the Mariposa in the custody of Deputy Marshal E. P. Holden, Of Chicago.
 When arraigned to plead before the district court the next day his attorney made applications to the judge of the district court to direct the United States marshal of this di- vision to summons eight witnesses to attend at the trial of the case. The defendant is to be tried for murder in the first degree, and has filed an affidavit stating he was a poor man and unable to pay the eX- penses of these witnesses, and that they were each of them necessary and material for his defense, some Of them being residents outside. He claims he can show by them that he has always had the reputation of being Q peaceable and law abid- ing citizen, and that Wixon, the man with wNom he had the trouble, was known to be and was up to the time Of the trouble, a bad man." Judge Jennings took the matter under ad- Yisement.
 N. H. Wixon was killed on May 2S, last year, during the progress of a quarrel over mining properties, in which deceased and Rogers were the parties. They were prospecting on Christmas creek, a tributary of Glacier in the Porcupine mining dis trict. They were all alone and there were no witnesses to the tragedy. Rogers, who claimed the killing was in self-defense, was eX- -onerated by a majority of the jur- ors at the coroner's inquest that fol- lowed.
 The indictment charges that Rog- CTS struck Wixon on the head with q carpenters hammer and shot him with a rifle inflicting separate wounds both of which were fatal and would have caused the death of WiXOn.

 The mic dle class French housewife understands the true value and econo- my of a hors d'oeuvre. Poor French housewife How often she is used to illustrate the housewifeiy virtues! She must tire of her popularity. but the fact remains that she does make use Of the hors d'oeuvre in the proper fashion.
 What she understands is this- That dainty tidbit to begin the meal puts the diners in a pleasant frame of mind It .whets their appetites and at the same time soothes them and puts them in a mood to enjoy and. moreover. to assimiiate the dishes that follow.

 EpbeD1eraT Nox'eftY ;

TyO say that ribbon that has the ap-
 pearance of having been given a good coat of stove polish is ugly is putting it very mildly. To my mind it is hfdecus- It was used in the very early spring by the exclusive millinery houses, but was soon relegated to the cheaper shops and sprang instantly Into popular favor.
 Now none Of the better grade of hats are trimmed with the shining stuff. and when you see it upon a gown serving as a belt or sash you are thrown into a nervous tremor from fear that the backing is going to run off and soil the gown or. in case Of the hat. that rainstorm would result in little rivers of blaclking being distributed generously over the person wearing 1t

Iris Details That Make or Mar Milady's Costume

IT is a recognized fact that small de-
 tails make or mar costume. and this season the acce@ories are more important than ever before.
 Separate pepluns attached to girdles. fancy vests and waistcoats, novel coll 1arets, the buckles on the shoes. the stockings-alI these things help to make new touch on. a last years toilet and raise a new one from medi- ocrity to individuality.
 The pannier or the tunic or the pep 1un, or whatever you choose to call the rear draperies, whether attached to the basque or to the skirt or to the girdIe, is of necessity attracting attention.
 One cannot help wondering whether, having effectually prevented our walk ing comfortably. the couturieres have now conspired to prevent our sitting down.
 We find that the latest spot selected for artificial roses, for instance, is right across the back underneath the hustle effect. Very charming they look nestled beneath a dainty taffeta drapery just the touch needed for a youthful tango frock; but, dear me. the wearer is never considered as a wall fower,'' or if that fate awaits her she must literally mold up the wall'' rath-

CT than gracefully adorn a chair if she does not wish her rear decorations to look ready for the ash heap.
 Every one who has turndown .co1- lar of which she is fond is wiring it up a Ia medici, for the standing collar has come to stay. Cut out of organ die, these collars are very inexpensive and require no wiring. as the dressing of the material is sufficiently stiff un- til the collar is laundered and clear starched.
 By the addition of different coat a change of tunic or the altering of a collar one dress can be made to serve for many purposes and yet look differ ent.
 Thus a rufied or plaited skirt may have a draped coat of the same mate rial and a basque with a draped tunic. The basque can be discarded and a chiffon and lace blouse substituted. Add to this a deep girdle with another sort of pahnier and behold another frock.
 There is no reason that a hat should not be treated in the same way now that so little decoration is used. The exchange of ribbon loops for a plume or an aigret of flowers is not much trouble with the aid of a fancy pin or buckle.
