PllICE FIVE < KN'l'S. OVER THE HILLS AND FAR AWAY. GOTHAM'S PRETTIEST WOMAN. THERE has always been a popular idea Unit New York did not value beauty la its women ns highly us style. Gotham's feminine types nre perfect in their way, clear Ctlt, high bred, well-groomed, and above all, perfectly clad. But they are uot, as a rule, pretty, lu the sense that a Southern or Western iniiii would use tbe term. It Is In the South that beauty reigns supreme and a girl on the other side of the Mason and Dixon Hue, be 6lie ever so rich, clever or stylish, is not m *7 [i * ■•> MAI!IK ciiunciiiLi,. a belle unless she lias also the divine gift. But lntely Gotham, untrue to tradition, has beeu Imitating the Southern elites and worshiping nt the shrine of beauty. Miss Marie Churchill is the honored object of this adoration. She is conceded to be th* most beautiful woman In New York. She Is prominent in tbe more exclusive social circles, Is a woman of superior accomplishments and a prime favorite among the 400. When the picture printed here was tnken Miss Churchill posed lu the costume she wore at the famous Bradley-Martin ball. Afflicted wllh Anierienilltis. Tbe physical troubles of college women ln the United States have been ascribed to what Is named Ainerlcanltls, rather than the college education. Amerlcnnltis Is defined as the desire to "get on," regardless of everything else. It ls Ameiicnuitls that prompts the farmer's daughter to get a college education nnd make opportunities for herself belter thun those her mother unci father bad before her. Therefore she goes to a small college lu a small town with a preparatory department attached, where she often begins her education ns a "junior prep." She furnishes a single room, In which she, and often n roommate, study, sleep, eat, make their clothes, and sometimes do their laundering. She keeps up In her studies, joins n choral class, a literary society and the Young Women's Christian Association, goes to chapel once every day aud twice on Sunday, and very often falls In love and "gets engaged" besides. At the beginning of her senior year she breaks down. That ls the least she could lie expected to do under such conditions. wilh the cloth iu color. Collars continue high, are gored and undulating, anu may be lined with fur, velvet or lnce. Wattenu effects are seen. Capes will continue to be worn. The novelty lu their trimming Is a flounce of the same material about the edges, described by tbe Trench modiste as 'cut iu round.' " The New Shaped Corsets. It Is being announced by tbe fash- ionable modistes and women tailors that they will lit gowns ouly over the new shape corsets, while the cloak and mantle makers say tbat all garments for the fall nud winter itrnde will nlsu be modeled for figures wearing tlie same style. There ls a most pronounced change from tlie old corset, whose chief end seemed to be to accentuate the length of the waist nud to rnlso the bust. The new corset has what the shop girls call "Ihe low bust" and "sudden hip." The brick Is noticeably narrow, the hips very full and the bust entirely without formation. Except nt the waist line lhe garment scarcely touches lhe figure nt nlL The change Will not be objected to by slender women, while, ou the oilier baud, to women with n superabundance of flesh the new corset will be nothing short of nn abomination, which Ihey will be slow to adopt. Harmony In Contrasts. We have always been taught to believe that one of the canons of good dressing Is the harmony of color In eyes and gown; but this theory bas beeu exploded, nnd It hns been clearly demonstrated by women of good taste tbat nothing Is more fatal to good effect than a blue-eyed woman gowned In blue, or a browu-eyed woman dressed all In brown. Colors of contrasting shades are always becoming and stylish If properly combined, nnd If well suited to the wearer are very effective. —Woman's Home Companion. Powder uud Putches Again* Women ivho nre never satisfied with i the color of their hair will no doubt be i glad to learn that powdered hair Is j again to be In vogue. Not, of course, for dally wear, but for dinners mid all ! ma uner of dressy f unci Ions. The ef- feet ls one that women have always liked to emulate, and its appearance In 1897, together with a host of other re- Vlvals, will be hulled with . delight. Patches are, of course, thc natural ae- j companinient of powdered hair, and I they have not been forgotten. The ; woman whose while locks are plied co- i quettlsbly on lop of her head plans a pretty contrast by scattering half a dozen little black patches over her 1 cheeks and brow. The effect is still J further helped out if she chances to have dark eyes and eyebrows that are slender dark curves.

"The tendency of the winter Jacket Is toward tbe blouse effect, which Is obtained by darts," writes Isabel A. Million, In the Ladles' Home Journal. "Yokes, collars, cuffs, pipings In fur, whether It be mink, Persian lamb, ermine, sable, sliver nnd blnck fox, or monkey, will be popular. Velvet nnd silk braid of all widths are much used. Satin cloth ls really the novelty of the day, and obtains ln heliotrope, green, mode, golden-brown, sliver-gray, royal blue, dove anl Lincoln gr*)en.

The tea-gown has never been lost to sight siuce It lirst camo Into general use, and this dressy affair Is courted by many women both summer and winter. A gabrlelle front and Wattenu back nre inseparable from the regulation tea-gown, though the most elaborate and newer editions of this style of dress nre more like a fancy princess slyle thnn anything else. However,' In this, as in nil other garments, variety Is the rule, and the manner of trimming and change of materials lend style nnd effect to tlie garment more than the original cut, which may be In belted style or not, us the fancy dictates — Woman's Home Companion. Never put a bottle nipple Into youi mouth nnd then Into the baby's mouth. This will often prove dangerous. Plain, boiled water, given between feedings, will often aid the digestion nnd satisfy the child when restless. An Infant ls a creature of habit, and usually responds to the wish of the I mother, if the mother has order ln her will. Feeding at night after the third mouth ls both inconvenient nnd unnecessary. Sleep at night Is better than food. More Infants' lives nre taken by overfeeding than by starvation. Never liken nn infant's digestion or diet to your own. Vomiting nnd diarrhea nre Indications that the child Is either slek or approaching sickness, and probably needs a physician. Cholera Infantum would be of.j-are occurrence if pi-bper attention was'always given to the quality and quantity of the food. EltTAINLY I wns lu an awkward flx. My husband did uot see It. of course, nnd when I hud said for the thirteenth—I love to be accurate— for the thirteenth time that evening. "Whatever nni I to do?" he only replied, to his newspaper, apparently, "If money will be of any use to you, dear, I can let you have a blank cheek." I very nearly said: "It has taken more than money to keep your house properly for the ten years we have been married. It takes brains," but he Is such a dear, good fellow, that I stopped In time. However, nt the fourteenth time of asking, he simply replied, "I'm going to bed," and went. I still snt thinking, i o be sure. It was only the cook who hud left suddenly that day on account of bud news from home. With the assistance of the housekeeper 1 had contrived to prepare a respectable euuugh little dinner for onee, and, for the matter of that, could have contrived to do so mull I was properly "suited." I do not change my women servants ofteu. The boy is a more valuable tpiuntlty, but when 1 do I prefer to wait a little rather than take Just anybody. StilL there was that friend of George's brother Jim, iu Queensland, coming on Thursday to speud a few days, and this was Tuesday. 1 could not put lilm off, ns It was the only time he bud free, and Jim had seemed really anxious Unit we should meet him. "Harry is terribly cut up over the loss of his wife, through that dreadful mistake of which I think I told you lu my lust letter." lie hadn't. Just like Jim's careless- Less. "This wns, Indeed, the cause of his coming home. He Is a line fellow and a true friend, too true a friend, indeed, to one thoroughly undeserving," continued Jim, somewhat irrelevantly. "But the virtues of Harry Gordon can by no possibility brenkfnst and luncheon and dine him for three solid dnys If I don't succeed In getting a cook," I concluded as I wandered sleepily upstairs. "I must try Miss Griggs at the Young Women's Christian Association rooms, aud lake whoever she offers me." Thitherward I accordingly wended my way the following morning ns soon ns I had got George comfortably breakfasted and dispatched lo the office. Miss Griggs heard me with attention. "Well, Mrs. Mason, I think I have a girl living here nt this moment who might exactly suit you, provided you ore willing to take everything about her on trust. I have been constrained to do this for the sake of her sweet, true face. I can't sny that I would go to every mistress with that suggestion " "But, you know," Interrupted I, "that we look at things from the sainc standpoint, aud remember that In the highest sense we are every day being taken on trust ourselves." She smiled, nodded, and left the room. A moment later the door opened gently and a slight, graceful girl of about Z\, with brown hair and eyes, aud pule, regular features, stood before me. She wns very simply dressed lu n well mude blue serge gown, but her soft, low voice, a little nervous in its accents, was beyond all possibility of doubt the voice of a lady. I was so much fascinated by that voice—a deep,musical one,the kind that haunts you, with the tiniest suspicion of n foreign accent In it, and yet not foreign either—that 1 scarcely know bow I stumbled through tbe usual questions. "What Is your name?" "Mary Steven." "Have you nuy written character?" "None." "Can you give any references?" "No, ma'am." A pause. Suddenly she proudly raised I.er pretty bead. "I have no character, madam, and no references. I shnll uot tell you anything about myself but my name. I like your face. You seem a motherly, Christian woman." (Motherly, and, again, woman to me!) "I like you," continued this strange creature, "und if you nro willing to give me a quiet corner lu your household nnd some small wages, for I have no money"—ns If I tfould take anybody's services for nothing.-"! believe you will find me a capable cook and a faithful servant." Quite a little (peach, you see, with ' delicate cheeks all ablaze, and tiny hands nervously clenched. "My dear," suid I, impulsively, "I will take you ou trust." So my new cook came home. Four faultless meals she prepared, and ere the hour for the flflli arrived Harry Gordon arrived nlso. He was a tall, thin, quiet man, with wavy hair, almost pure white, though he could uot be over lio, brushed back off Ills temples. Not at ill my. Idea of au Australian shepherd king, which indeed he could scarcely now Is* ••ailed, as ut' late y-nrs he bad-devoted himself much to colonial politics. Indeed.

Only .he. s'eedlf.d^'burdened will a strange reserve. ..His home he never mentioned, nor'.the dear, dend wife. Perhaps he oouldnot trust himself lo speak of these with composure—at least not yet. Jim hud intrusted a small parcel to hlni for us, aud a short time after dinner he roseto leave the room to letch it. At the same time I felt rather thun heard a light footstep ascending Ihe stairs. Carelessly I noted It. "It is Mary going to bed. She wns up early." Her room was on the top tint, and to reach It she had to ascend the front stairs. Mr. Gordon had just paused on the landing, his hand still lightly catching the handle of the door. Suddenly the footsteps faltered— stopped. "Harry!" "Marie!" The man's heart was in the cry. The little feet flew on ns If ou wings. Thc door reopened, and with the lnce of one transfixed he again stood before us. My husband started up. "What Is the matter?" I am afraid I lost my head a little, nnd to relieve the strain of Hie situation reninrkeil foolishly: "Mr. Gordon looks a* If he had seen a ghost instsiil of such -n ordinary person ns the cook." ,?. "The cook!*he repeated*' "Mi's. Mason, it Is my wife!" George found his voice first. ' "But I thought you said you had lost your wife?" A new light broke upon inc. Yes. "lost," but "found." I do not generally speak lo my bus band lu a tone of authority, but on this occasion 1 did. "George," 1 said, "go down to your study directly nnd wait for me there. Stop here, Mr. Gordon." I went up to Mary's room—a tiny box of a place, 10 feet by 7, but 1 like each of my girls to Lave a room, however small, that she can call her own. .The, girl lay prone upon the little while bed. "Mary," I said, "you must eome downstairs," She shuddered. "Is she with him?" "She? Whom?" said I. "Oh, there hns been some sad misunderstanding! Come with me." I led her, unresisting, to the drawing- room door nnd left her there. At this point I may us well tell you the story which we gathered iu detached bits later on. In her uinideu dnys In that distant colony Marie Steven hud I wo lovers, friends of one another, and bearing lhe saiqe.Christian mime. There wns. however, In her mind, no question of choice between t'lem. For her Harry Gordon wns and always had been the only ninn in the world. For some time nft'er the marriage the friendship between.the two men continued to nil seeming unimpaired, Then ugly whispers in regard to Gordon's happiness nnd personal affairs began to limit about. .These hud, of coui.se, orlglnut.ed.fi'OH'ly.In lhe fertile brain of his respectable namesake, and by him it was duly arranged that they should reach ihe ears of,the young wife. Perhaps from ii dread of hearing them confirmed by his owu lips, she from day to day delayed repeating them lo her husband. Wild suspicions tore her heart nnd left her with no rocks of firm faith on which <o cling lu the crisis that was fust coming. sitting alone oue afternoon Marie wns surprised by the entrance of her husband's friend. He placed in her hand the letter of a woman signing herself, "Your deserted wife, and conjuring Harry to remember the promise of other and happier days. "Can you doubt his guilt, Marie, or my disinterested love? This letter must have broken all ties between you. Come with me, nnd lu the old country we sliall together begin a new aud happier life." "Yes, to the old country I shall go, but alone, with no meaner man, 'Not Lancelot, nor another.' There I shall Indeed begin a new life. There he enn never discover me nor persuade me to condone what this reveals." That same evening one of the great Pacific liners sailed with a new stewardess, who had turned up nt the last moment, soliciting employment just In time to till the place of oue who had been taken suddenly III. .......

The government's failure to adopt his plan hns nol discouraged Glover. He says be will interest capitalists, organize n company and have his snow sled road iu operation before winter closes. "There are two routes," says Mr. Clover, "by which a snow train can reach Dawson City, execptlug the route from SI. Michael's to Dawson City, up lhe Yukon river.

The locomotive will be housed like the one shown in lhe pictures, pulling from six to eight cars, one or two of which will be for passengers, sleeping and baggage purposes, ami the others for freight.

Two locomotives will accompany the tirst train, lo help it over high grades and out of deep cuts, over rough places nnd around curves. Three men ore necessary for each locomotive—an engineer, lireinnn and pilot, who siaiids in trout. The locomotive is \u\-y simple iu principle nud construction.

The gentlemen expressed themselves as extremely well pleased with the mineral showings of thissectioo and predict for it a great future as a mining district; they also spoke very hopefully of the outlook for a railroad, which they Beemed to think very bright. Another thing which elicited particular mention was the beautiful situation of the town- site of G-anl Forks and iis p-ospicts of becoming a large city thc entire party saying that it was one of the best situated towns in British Columbia. At tbe meeting of the stockholders first held officers were elected for the en ruing yearaa follows: IVesid mt, Hon. T.

From the gool showing at t 0 mine it was decided to advance the price ot the stock in the company, most ■ pf which is being disposed of in England, although the people employed in the working of the properly are alio buying considerable quantities from so cents to 25 cents. The Company's Prop.rty. Apropo of this moeting of the company and the large amount of development whieh they have done on their claims a short description of the properties opened by them and the work done to date may not be out of place. Tho company owns in fee simple tbe (.olden Cmvn claim in Wellington camp and has a bond on the Calumett, veins. This tunel is uow In about 200 feet and is expected to tap all the leads for which it is being driven within the next icoo feet. When in about 70 feet a blind lead with a width of iS inches was tapped and since then two other blind ledges one six inches the other lour feet wide having been cut which gives at least eight veins to be opened by this tunnel when completed, provided no more blind leads are tapped. The general character of the ore is practically the same in all the workings, solid pyrrhotite alternating with copper sulphides and iron pyrites in qur.rlz, and all the ledges cut squarely across the RESERVATION NOTES. Seven weeks from next Thursday the qualified electors of the municipality of Grand Forks will be called upon to elect a mayor and i-ix aldermen to serve ior the ensuing year. Already the mayorality bee is buzzing around the cats of a number of prospective csnjid ites and the contest promises to be a lively and interesting one. According to the municipal election act the qualifications necessary to entitle a person to be nomi nated and eleetcd mayor are that he shall be a ma'-' li iii h suljectcf the lull age of twenty-one years, who is not disqualified under any lav aid has been for the six months ne t preceeiling the day cf nomination the registered owner inlhoL.nd Registry e I'li :e, of lind or renl piopetty in ihe cry • f ihe assessed value of one thousand do lats or more, over and above any registered incumbrance or charge, and wio are otherwise duly qualified ;.s municipal voters This narrows the list down from which to make a cholco for mayor to the Icl lowing persons: John A.

The wagon road between Gran 1 Forks and Greenwood crosses the properties and gives a down gtaee full nine miles to Grand Forks, and the proposed railway lino from the Columbia river to Pentieton is surveyed within a shoit distance of the mine so it will be easily accessible for ore shipments.

But In tbe event that it is apparent that Mr. McCallum cannot develop tbe necessary strength to secure an elec ion, a combination will ho effected whereby his friends will name the Candidate and that gentleman will be returned to his seat in the council. The feeling still exists tbat it would be detrimental to the city to allov the management municipal affairs to pass under the con Irol of Mr. MgCaltuni and bis followers and with that view in end 'he friends ol both W.

As the contest is young yet it is a hard matter at this time to pi edict which one of-them will be decided upon to head the aiiininis'.raiioi ticket.

The director goes on to say that even in a gymnasium a man must be ou his guard against forms of exercise that tend to Induce a stooping posture. "As round shouldered as a gymnast," he says, has almost passed Into a prov- j erb. He recommends also what he calls ' a lie abed exercise. "Stand ou the j back of head, the back shoulders and the heels by arching the back," and re-' peat the operation a dozen times or so. —Weekly Bouquet. SEA ABOVE THE CLOUDS. The Strange Belief Once Kntertalned In England. It used to be firmly believed ln England that there was a see*, above the clouds ami thai ships sailefsfcion this sea. over tbe bends of tbe ptxiple otl the earth's surface. The following lllus tratton of this curious superstition by au old English writer is not without Interest: "One Sundny the people of a certain village were coming out of church on a thick, cloudy dsy, wheu they saw the anchor of a ship hooked to one of the tombstones—the cable, which was tightly stretched hanging down from the air. The people were astonished; and while they were consulting about it, suddenly they saw the rope move as though some one labored to pull up the anchor. Tbe anchor, however, still held fast by lhe stone, nnd a great noise was heard in the air, like the shotitiug of sailors. Presently a sailor was seen sliding down thy. cable for the purpose of unfixing the anchor. Wheu he, had Just loosened it. the villagers seized hold of him, and while In their hands lie quickly died; just as though he had been drowncirt. About an hour'afte^'-Mfe'sailors nbbvi hearlug no uiore*of;fft'otr*.©uil'»<Ju,..i*'l**»; the cnble and sailed away. Iu memory of this extraordinary event,- the.Veilittt- of the village made the hing«s.-t*f.((tlii$, church doors out of the Iron yf„()fja, anchor." It Is further stated tblit these hinges "are still to be seen there;" **a bit of evidence much like Muiichaii* sen's rope wherewith he once climbed' to the moon, if you doubted the stoi'y you were confronted wllh the rope. There Is another queer talc about this aerial oceuu. "A merchant of Bristol," it ls said, "set sail with his cargo for Ireland. Some time after, while his family were at supper, a knife suddenly fell In, through a window, on the table. When the merchant returned and saw the kulfe, he declared It to be his owu, and said that on such a day, nt such an hour, while sailing In an unknown pnrt of the sen he dropped the knife overboard; and the day and the hour were found to be exactiy the time when It fell through the window." THE BLUES. When a cheerful, brave, light-hearted i woman is suddenly plunged into tbat ! perfection of misery, the iilues, it is a I ifad picture. It is usually this way*— Who has been feeling- "out of sorts" for some time ; head lias ached, aud back also; has slept poorly, been quite nervous, and nearly fainted onee or twice; head dizzy, and heart has beat very fast; then that bearing-down feeliu*?.

"The higher salaries of the larger | cities is, perhaps, what attracts young men more potently thnn auy other factor." writes Edward W. Bok, In the Ladies' Home Journal, poinding out "Where Success Awaits Voting Men"— ; In the smaller cities. '*But, unforlu- nately," he says, "as thousands of young men huve found for themselves, these salaries nre not so high as they were led to believe, nor will the city Income buy as much iu the metropolis as they bargained for. A salary of $-', OHO a year In the big city will not bring a young mau the comfortable living which one thousand dollars n year means to him ln the smaller community. With a far more moderate salary the rising young clerk, manager or business man in the small city lives like a kiug In comparison to the man of equal position In the large center. If bc enrus a thousand or two a year he has his own little home, by lease or purchase. For $25 per nianth he can have his owu pretty cottage, with Goel's pure sunshine on four sides of It. Ills children J have their own grass-plot for *tlie,r play- ground. Ills porch Is his evening pleasure and his Sundny delight. Trees shade his street, cool his rooms, aud J make living a comfort. His friends live all around him. He kuows the man who lives next door. His neighbor's j children are his children's playmates. Ills social life has a meaning to It: It Is j a joy aud an exhilaration to him. When ho goes out lu the evening it is Into a home gathering where every face Is familiar, and where he Is known and welcomed. He has time to read, some- i thing which the man lu the larger city, [ whom he envies, bus uot. Ills church Is lo him like a faintly gathering every Sunday morning. The man in the pulpit Is his pastor, who, perhaps, has baptized him, married him, and will baptize aud marry his children. Respect- ed in his circle of friends, every step of progress lu his business is known 10 Ihem, nnd is the cause for courgratula- tion. He ls within ensy walking dis- tance or trolley ride of his place of business. To his wife his home is her joy, and not her care. She has time for , her children, her home, her social duties, her rending and her church. The blood of health rushes through the veins of his children as they sleep and piny In an unpolluted atmosphere. Life means something to such a man: It means happiness—the true measure of nil success." Two Independent People. Irving Gilbert aud his sister Florence left Sioux Oity several days ago for Newton, Mass. Near there they will buy a small farm, ou the protlucts of which they propose 10 depend directly for the necessaries of life. They will raise only what they actually ueed for their own food, will make their own clothes, cultivate the soil with their owu hands and map out their future lives to suit themselves alone. They will sell nothing and what they cau have only by purchase they will do wlihout. says the Kansas City Star. Their phiii Is quite distinct from that of Count Tolstoi or the Brook Farm nnd Fi'ultlands experimenters, aud Is more lu line with tbat so successfully I rled by Henry D. Thoreau on thu shores of Waldeu Pond, near Concord, Mass. They seek no prooolytes and are quite Indifferent to the effect the success or failure of thiB experiment may huve ou others. Absolute Independence le all they seek and this they are determluetl to have. The Gilberts arc well known In Sioux City and their radical departure from the ordinary plan of life has created much comment among their friends. The broUier was thWorlglnator of the plan, and Induced his Bister to join htm by his representations of tho happiness he hoped to attain, -?He was employed as an architect on several of the World's Fair buildings. He ls a sufferer from dyspepsia ami nervous prostration, both of whicli he attributes to the tension of modem life and both of which he thinks will leave him soon after his return to tbe simplicity of nature. Miss Gilbert ls a graduate of the Sioux City high school, was a teacher In tbe public schools and In the past has always taken a leading part lu the social life of Uie city.

How History Gets Mixed. In oue of the debates toward the end of the last session of Congress a Senator, wishing to make a polut against the proposed pngennt nt the Inauguration of President McKlnley, referred with a sigh of regret to the time when Jefferson rode 011 horseback unnl tended to the Capitol and hitched his horse to a fence."'" Although (here ls not a word of I ruth In the story, It has made It's way Into what may bo called our folk-lore, and even luto some books that prcteud to lie history. Experience shows lhat when such an error gets a linn foothold It can never be dislodged. Tbe story was first told by an Englishman who wrote a scurrilous work on America, but who never visited ihe country until a year lifter Jefferson became President. The truth Is to be found In the newspapers of the dny and In a full account given of thc ceremony to the British Government by Mr. Thornton, the representative of that government at Washington. Jefferson bad his home at a lionrd- Ing-liotisc not more than a sloue's throw from lhe Cupltol. . He walked from that bouse to lhe scene of the Inauguration, escorted by n body of inlll- lla and a procession of citizens ou foot. In our dsy such a progress would be extremely plain and democratic; but at the beginning of litis century, and lu view of tbe nenrness of Jefferson's home to the Cnpltol, It did uot convey to the minds of Ihose who witnessed It a marked contrast to the display on previous similar occasions. Thc truth about the occurrence may bc found, by those who care to look the matter up, in Heury Adams' or Mc- Mnstrr's history, and In "Losslng's Cyclopedia of American History." The error Is a curious rather than nn Important one. for Mr. Jefferson, no more and no less than Mr. McKlnley. Is to be judged by what he did, nnd not by lhe circumstances of his journey, ou one day of his life, to the Cupltol.—Youth's Companion.
