Smart Spring Millinery Women’s preference for Hats of true smartness reaches the height of perfection in these new models for Spring. The new Hats are fashioned of satin, hair, bangkok, erin, straw and the ever-popular felt. Some are rimmed across back and for- ward, covering the ears, while others follow the up in front trend with decorations at center. Ribbons, pleats, bows and buckles provide the medium for many of the trimmings. This collection shows favored shapes—each ‘onc' carrying the air of veal Spring smartness. There is nothing newer than these de- sirable Hats—colors, shapes, trimming are artistically correct and there is an important saving on these early Hats just arriy- ing from New York.

Irish, with a five dog team went to Bettles (where he was joined by Sam Hope who also drove a five deg jteam and together thé men pro:, {ceeded up Wild River,, thence to "the headwaters of Timber Creek, a tributary of John River,- where they found Creecy prospecting. At the inquiries of Irish and | Hope, Creecy replied he had left 'the note on the trail as a joke and had no idea a searching party | wouid be sent out for him. Irish and Hope returned to their homes, the former having covered 228 miles and been on the trail nine days and the latter |having been out four days and traveled 100 miles. The expenses of the trip, which was made as provided by the Territory, amounted to $266.50. PR S e @k o CAME WARDEN LEAVES Homer W.
