 When discussing the recent fam ous case which they heard, one of the councilmen minated that i'm portant changes are to be made in the number and personel of the city employees. These changes have been under advisement for a considerable time, and are in the nature of a re- trenchment policy forced upon the council by reason of the very de- pleted condition of the city treasury. According to this statement no de- partment is to escape the pruning hook that is to be wielded, the Fire Department nc less than any other and that the change will take place as soon as practicable. An effort to secure some detailed data for the in formation of the public failed, the councilman giving the information stating that the plans were still in complete and it would be premature to make any announcement on the subject until the whole matter had been fully arranged.

As far as could be gathered vest erday the Arctic was still waiting at St. Michaels for a boat coming down the river with many passeng- CTS. It is stated that there are no round trippers coming down the river the tourist business having been concluded with the last trip of the Victoria so that these pas sengers will be travellers who arc going outside or have business in Nome.
 It is understood that the railroad bridge across Nome river is to be put in shape so that the cars can cross without the use of the ferry.

A cape collar among many ape col
lars, becomes Immediately interesting
when its designer thinks Of making
siashes in it. This one is of soft
pique and black velvet ribbon Is run
through the slashes, forming ties that
hold the collar up about the neck.
This idea is so good that it bears rep
etitiOn in the turn-back cuffs also laced
through slashes with ribbon.
1t takes just these touches to make
us coucede that this new model is en-
titled to be called a dress. Taking it
all in all 1t will prove very useful for
wear instead of o suit.
Fashion Is eliminating distances and
the Chinese seem not remote since we

them. The wal in Europe has brought

their strivings for something new, no

To prove it, here is n new cOat-dress

There is no definition of the waist

their straight and narrow way, q belt

behavior Of the head of the firm. One
day he ventured to ask Mr.. Hardness
If Jean was giving satisfaction. He
answered in a coldly businesslike way
that she was.
AS time went On the young man be-
came convinced hat Jean had
thing more than admiration for his en-
ployer. There were two important
reasons why this should not go on. 1t
was surely a useless, hopeless idea
for Jean to cherish. He felt that the
girls life should not be saddened by
such n love. Besides he had made up
his mind that he would marry her
himself.
AS an old and valued employee he
felt he had the right to consult Mr..
Hardness on the subject.
1t was not an easy matter to ap-
proach, but after some stammering he
plunged in. He believed he had good
reason to know that his stenographer
had grown to care for him more than
was good for her peace of mind. Mr..
Hardness face expressed amazement.
He assured Bradbury he had not no.
ticed anything of the kind. Hardness
was not in the least erotic looking. His
nose was too stubby. But there was a
fine breadth of brow, and his clean
shaven mouth was firm and kind. Mr..
Bradbury insisted something must be
done to cure the girl. Mr.. Hardness
agreed with him.
Suppose" suggested Bradbury, "you
dictate an affectionate letter to a lady,
that may show her that it is hopeless
for her to"
Capital" exclaimed the other. II
will"
The next day after the other letters
were written, and it was near closing
time, Hardness nerved himself for the
task, and asked Jean to take a dicta-
ton.
MY dear Miss" "You can leave
out the name" he said. Then he went
on. Il want to know you better. 1
want to come to your home. VIII you
let me call? Please answer a sincere
friend and admirer."
Hardness noted with a strange little
twitch of his lip that her hand trem-

in shapes. They prove how much we
owe to artists who transform the
simplest and humblest headwear by
interpretations of their own into hats
of Irresistible charm.
AT the right the summary and flow
cry hat is made of fine black hair
braid, set V a cap made also of a
narrow black braid. The top crown
Is covered with tiny forget-me-nots in
several cOlOrs and the brim edge is
softened by little black silk balls, set
close together about it. Narrow black
velvet ribbon in two long ends have
no particular reason for joining forces
with the hat, except that the designer
chose to put them where they are.
At the left a fascinating coolie shape
Is made of silk in deep orange color

satin. Silk cords and twin t~assels, orig
inal and splendid products of China,
find themselves very much at home as
a decoration for this model. About

make a finish that is unique.

FIRE THAT NEVER GOES OUT
Roaring Blaze Is Kept Up Winter and
Summer in Fireplace in Dublin
Customhoase.

From time immemorial a roaring fire
has been kept burning in the handsome
fireplace on the righthand side of the
main entrance hall of the stately Dub
lin customhOuse. Wet or fine, hot or
cold, summer or winter, whatever the
season of the temperature, this fire is
allowed to be extinquished or to
die down. 1t burns in b huge orna-
mental open crate that holds close to
a hundredweight of Goals and throws
out sufficient heat to warn the big
entrance hall even in the depths of
winter, when the s%nOw-laden storms
from the north sweep across the open
courtyard and defy the double doors
of the main entrance. But in the
height of summer it blazes still,
heaped high with the same generous
prodigality of fuel.
During the two months of sweltering
heat the fire has never mitigated its
stimulating glow, and the officials of
the customs, income tax and other
departments housed in the great build
Ing on the way to and from their
duties have had to walk a quarter of
a mile out of their way to another en-
trance, so as to avoid the risk of heat
apoplexy, says the London Mail.
Only the aged officials who re-
~ligiously tend the ~ever-burning flame
remain unaffected by its influence.
Long years have hardened them, and
one of them sits even in a hooded
chair by the Preside, ready at any mo-
ment to rise and put some more Goals
on.
Various explanations have been
given as to the reason for this con-
slant fire, but none of them proves sat
isfying.
