Crist Rensch is starting today a
harvester which he sold to Ru-

Mrs. N. ID. McGillivray started for

The county commissioners met in

the levy will be high this year.
Clyde Belknap departed for Yank-
ton college today to begin a collegi-
ate course at that excellent institu-
ton. Clyde captured the high school
scholarship which entities him to
tuition free.
A large number of the farmers ap-
pointed on the fair committee met at
the city hall Saturday afternoon and
decided to take hold of the movement
in earnest. They were well pleased
TO hear that between $500 and $500
in money and prizes had been raised
by the citizens of this place for prem
iums and expenses and also with the
fact that our people contemplated a
purely agricultural exhibit which the
farmers themselves should manage.
A permanent organization was effect
ed by the election of T. H. Odell,

FALL FASHIONS
METALLIC MATERIALS FEATURE
or NEW MODELS, IN NARi-
OUS CONBIN ATOMS.

New York, Sept. I'm the early
showing of fall model there is hard
ly a hat. a wrap or a frock that
doesn't faunt a bit of g~alloon. a gilt
ter of gold and silver embroidery, or
a twist and fold of lustrous metallic
gauze about it somewhere.
For evening gowns the metallic
materials are most effective, especial
ly the gorgeous brocades of old blue
and gold, silver and old rose and
many w%ondrous color combination.
They look like products of the looms
of romance and seem to give the lie
to the broad hint that pastel tints
would be the only things in the color
line for the coming season. These
magnificent m~ettaline materials are
naturally made up oil the simplest
straight lines. depending solely on
their own beauty for adornment.
The princess lines are perfect
when carried out in these fantastic
fabrics. The straight hung medieval
effects are also good. Obviously
these gorgeous garments are to be
worn only by the most stately, but
let not the petite despair. She may
natalie as well by touching up a
frothy frock of net with high lights
OF gold or silver gauze.
Such a fascinating ~confection is an
evening gown of white tulle. The
multi-layered skirt has it's inner
layer bound around it's ankle length
with a fold of silver gauze while the
shorter outer layer is caught up in
kirtle effect on each side with a clus-
ter of silver gauze garlands. The
bodice consists of a wisp of the tulle
owe each shoulder, a wide girdle of
the silver and a spray of the silver
blooms at the corsage. A more de-
lectable costume were hard TO mag
inc unless 1T be a vision of blush rose
tulle whose fluffy skirt is caught high
up on the left side with long loops of
purple velvet ribbon over a petticoat
of golden gauze. A wide girdle of
the gold Is held in its proper place
by a fluff of the tulle over one shout
der and a band of the purple over
the other.
Embroidery in gold and silver
threads and steel and copper beads is
another favorite method of trans
muting metals into garments and in
deed a most striking one in connec-
ton with the lustrous velvets that
are to be mode for fall and winter
wear. Cunning little velvet hats like
the bell crowned beavers Of the beau
ty of old have huge made buckles OF
gold or silver gauze and hat bands
If the same. Flat velvet shapes In
black or purple with wreaths OF
bright colored yarn flowers combined
with gold and silver fruits are a
dazzle of gorgeousness.

Miner County Sheriff Solves Mystery

Carthage, Sept. "A sensation
was created in Carthage when Sher-

town and arrested Robert Angel,
aged 16. for robbing the store of
Mack 4 Jackson of Carthage, about
a month ago. Satisfied that a band

thefts, the officers had since the rob-

last week when Sheriff Minder dump

animal walked to the gully and after
shifting at the liquid fast seeping in

to like it and took several more.
The result was ludicrous In the ex-
treme, for soon the animal went
staggering down the street, which
hardly seemed wide enough for him.
Before he reached his place in the
rear of the store, he had fallen down
twice, but finally regained his place

Britain and her allies is inadmissible.
We have declined to permit Germany
