It is going to be another big and gay
wash dress season. RayonS, linens and
cottons of every description are making
fashion news. Dark linens with white
or light stacatto touches are being faV-
ored for informal trotting about. But
dark fashions are not the only fashions
no indeed-the pace settlers Of Europe
are so colorfully dressed these days
that they resemble nothing SO much as
a vari-colored nosegay Of garden
flowers.
London's May season is the nth de-
gree of formality and fashion perfection
during May, London is abloom with
colorful ladies. This is really news be-
cause all the right people who make
it a business to go to all the right
places at the right time spend May in
London And when we hear these
people are seen gayly and colorfully
clad instead of wearing the usual
clothes of Europe's chic Women-we are
hearing something different.
Color and the rage for peasant
fashions go hand in hand. Swedish
peasant fashions are among the latest.
Sweden is a natural and picturesque
field for fashion inspiration. The near
at hand visit of the Crown Prince and
Princess to this country in honor Of
the celebration Of the 300th anniversary
of the founding of the first Swedish
settlement in America is giving added
impetus to Swedish styles.
Some of the most colorful cottons
that will be seen this summer came
from the Hawaiian Islands. These gay
prints are Of the most inexpensive
types, yet they are as modish as any
thing you can find. Let me say that
they fit like glove. In addition to the
usual beach coat, shorts, Stacks, dirndl,
etc., there is a surf boy shirt with tails
that tie in front. This shirt is fashion

Fish Are Caught
In the Grass.

Anoka-A condition that occurred in
the late 80's was reported last Friday
when Coon Greek suddenly receded
after overlooking onto meadow lands.
Fish, mostly carp, were running" up
stream to breeding grounds and swan
out over the marshes. The water fell,
and persons living near walked over
the marshes and picked up quantities
of fish caught by the grass. Most were
alive and in pockets. The water saw
this same condition in 1888, the fish
then being pickereI instead of pike.

Car Has It's DUN
Alarm for Fire

st. Peter-Ultra-modern equipment is
the slogan of a local mans automobile
which believes in being able to sound
its own alarm in case of fire. Con-
tinuous blowing of the horn recently
called attention to the fact that Dick
Maltby's practically new car was on
fire. The local fire department was
summoned in the wee hours one Sunday
morning to put out blaze which
promised to consume the car. Fire in
side of it, presumably from ignition
wires, gained great Roadway and COM
pletely burned the inside of the auto.
Dick had gone home at eight o'clock in
the evening and left the car beside his
home, as he expected to leave town
early the next morning.

sequent ones $50 of which would go to old age pen sions. Robert Jones, writing about it in the New York Times says that many Nebraskans see in it pro- motion of gambling by syndicate under the camou- flage of paying old age pensions
 There may be mertorous ideas back of the various easy-payng pension plans, but the unhappy fact remains that they invariably promoted by persons who profit in some way or another at the expense of the very persons they hope to benefit the needy The countless nickels and dimes which are dropped into the hat by those who ill afford it to further these schemes is the tragedy of it. Too often it turns to be straight racketeerng of the poor, some spelbinder making a nice thing out of it in salary and expenses" while it lasts
 Virtually every nowadays sees the need of old age pensions and they are rapidly becoming an established fact in our system of things But there is only way to pay them, and that is through a fair system of taxation. The Social Security law intelligent effort in that direction. These pana offered under the guise of helping the aged too often just schemes milk the unfortunate the last few nickels they have.

TUESDAY, OCT. II, 1888

Although the morning hours should be fortunate adverse aspects rule strongly later in the day.
 It is an suspicious rule under which to make business trips and should be lucky for political workers. The stars predict many reform movements.
 The Moon which today occults Uranus presages unusual events in Asia. Surprising developments m international conflicts are prognos- ticated.
 In Europe Marshal Goering comes under a threatening portent which seems to indicate that he will meet with grave reverses and will face tragedy as the year comes to an end. The conjunction of Hitlers Jupiter and Moon with the Mer- cllrv of his second in command is read as an omen of evil for the Fuehrer's aide.
 Astrologers find in the horoscope of King George VT of England signs most encouraging for the British Empire which will meet European crises wisely within the next few weeks. Cabinet changes are forecast
 Radicals are to receive a check that prevents increase of member ship in their secret organizations, it is prophesied. Cleavage between liberals and radicals will be marked.
 Girls may expect a gay social season in which there will be whirl- wind courtships and nasty mar riages. Young men will be determ- ined suitors who scorn long en- agreements.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a year of success through wise foresight, but they may expect changes of a surpris- ing character. Both men and wo- men are to have eventful months. Children born on this day prob ably will be gifted and individual but inclined to be aloof. Subjects of this sign may win success through concentrated effort.
