IS NOW QUIET HMD ORDBtLY Place One* Rendezvous for Dasperadoee Transformed by the Women-** Now Kept Clean Morally and Physically--Many Reforms. Jackson, Wyo.--Jackson, after a year's trial of petticoat government, has found It good. Half a century ago the first Jury of women to be Impaneled in the United States was drawn In Wyoming and 20 years later Wyoming insisted, and won its point, that it be admitted to the Union without one single change in its constitutional provision giving women equal suffrage rights with men.' Since then the feminist movement has developed astoundingl. v. And so, when the votes were counted at Jackson at the recent election, they showed the following *efcults: For mayor: Mrs. Grace Miller, 57; L W. Spicer, 21. For councilman: Mrs. Genevieve Van Vleck, 67; Q. JL Blaine, 19; Mrs. Faustina Halght, B6; Aimer Nelson, 18. Turn the Men Out Just a year ago the picturesque little western town, with a population of 526, by the latest census, nestling beneath the beetling peaks of the giant Tetons In the heart of the famed Jackson's Hole country, Rtartled the nation by turning uot Its man-made administration and installing a town government'made up entirely of women. The victory was all the more notable because of the fact -that Mrs. Cat Catches Two Trout. Hollis, N. H.--It takes a c&\ to put to blush some of the fastidious Isaak Waltons. A feline belonging to A. B. Eaton recently ^brought In two ,llve trout, each measuring six Inches. Where the cat got the trout Eaton does not know. She keeps her own secret. Rose Crabtree had been elected to the town council over her own husband. Evidently the women of Jackson had decided to spoil the town's glamorous reputation as the rendezvous for bad, bold, two-gun desperadoes. The exact Issue In the campaign a year ago was a matter for argument, but whatever It was the women won decisively. This year it was the mim thing over, a three-to-one landslide. During the year's tenure, the five women of the town's administration managed to keep Jackson clean, morally and physically, and In addition, they brought about a number of municipal improvements. They transformed what used to be country lanes Into city strefets; they acquired a site for a cemetery to take the place of the did. agtitwtte present syslcil ditches creek. ' Stand Pat on Records. - , Two of the counciiwomen are holds* overs this year. The other tuto, along; with the mayor, stood pat on thelf records. The mayor, Mrs. Miller, IS the wife of a wealthy retired stock* man and rancher, who Is supervisor of the Teton national forest reserve. Of the counciiwomen, Mrs. Crabtree runs a hotel. Her husband is abulld- Itog contractor. Mrs. Van Vleck Is the wife of a hardware merchant, Mrs. Halght Is a school teacher and a homesteader, and Mrs. W. C. sDe- Loney's husband Is a member of the Wyoming state legislature. A few days after the election, Miss Pearl Williams, the town's twenty* two-year-old marshal, announced that she would not seek reappointment of the new administration. When asked why not, she replied: Tve had plenty. Besides, Jackson has become so quiet and orderly that the town deesa't Design Md, familiar burying grfund; and need a marshal any mora." 300 Years Fabulous Treasure Said to Be Hidden in Sierra Madf| ^ .

Mrs. Lindsey Is seen lwlth him In this photograph of the transaction. violence have marked many of these efforts, and «till In many hardy breasts of this mining country today there still stirs the spirit which has prompted many to brave the dangers of starvation, thirst rnd death at the hands of Indian bands and outlaws In the search* for gold. Records at Capital. Mexico City contains records of the old mine, and several prospectors, one of them Jack rfunn, accredited discoverer of the Warren district, have reported seeing" the ruins of the old mine, but none ever reached there. According to records at the Mexican capital. In the latter part of the Seventeenth oentury the Isolated village of Old Tyopa was raided by Indians, who destroyed the town and killed all the inhabitants except a priest. After wandering for several weeks the priest arrived at a little town called Auga Fria, on the Faqul river, where he was received and cared for by a Mexican family. His hardships caused his death, but before he died he gave the family a description and map of the mining camp. He also reported that the gold obtained from several years of mining had been stored In an old tunnel, because of the impossibility of shipment to civilization. The story and map. It Is said, have been handed down from family to family for generations. Those who attempted to reach the camp lost their outfits, and many did not return. The Indians for years menaced all prospectors and this condition still exists, augmented by bands of outlaws. Max Covlta, for several years Mexican consul at Naco, is said to have been the latest possessor of, the priest's map. Has Twice Men Rulna. He declared he twice succeeded in getting as far as Casa Blanca, from which the ruins of Old Tyopa are visible, and it was reported he had not given up hopes of reachiqg the place at his death several years ago.. Bert Qrover, a local man, twice started with two companions to make the perilous journey, but was forced back because of Insufficient equipment, Indians and outlaws. Some remarkable gold specimens have been brought back from the vicinity of the Old Tyopa, but so far as known no one ever reached the mines since the old town was destroyed centuf ies ago. BIG FORTUNE IN SHARKS Extended Use Found for "Tlflers of the Sea." lew Industry on the PaoMIc Coast Ptwmiee* Blfl Profits fsr'tts Promoter*. " \ Victoria.--With the supply of raw mterial unlimited, an Industry new this country Is flourishing at Parker gland. between Gallano and Mayne Bland, on the Gulf of Georgia. It Is tie business of catching sharks, and a reek's catch at the beginning of May to 80, with an average weight If more than a ton each. Nelson Mac- )onald of this city, who operated the Irst shark-catching machinery on the Inland, declares there will never be a lortage, as there are millions in the Raters surrounding the island. 'In fact, the farther north you go He more sharks you will find, and am here to Alaska are their feeding grounds," Mr. . MacDonald said. '"Taking them from the bottom of the sea is automatic. Norway has hundreds of such industries. The only real hook for catching them, which works on a swivel, comes from there, and the so-calied cod liver oil, which Invades the markets of the world, is Really shark liver oil, manufactured in Norway." Nothing Is wasted In a shark plant There Is no finer ftSh meat than that made from the bodies of sharks. As a fertilizer It Is superior to dogfish. The head of the shark is full of glue of a highly valuable quality, and the fins are a much prized Chinese food delicacy, orientals here paying as much as $30 a pound for It The liver content runs from 00 to 70 per cent of finest oil. of which about 10 per cent is glycerin. Shark's teeth are in demand in many parts of the world, and fetch a high price for the manufacture of ornaments. What bones there are, and they are few. go Into the fertiliser pan of the Industry. The greatest interest in this new Industry is being manifested In the manufacture of hides. Several American companies have been formed, and much research work Is being done at/ present The shark hides run from an Inch in thickness to the consistency of paper in the baby shark. In Seattle they are manufacturing hipboots from shark hides and they arc declared to be completely waterproof. Lightning Deafens Horses. Columbia City, Ind.--Four horses In a barn at the farm of Frank Jones, five miles southwest of this city, were made deaf by a stroke of lightning the other day. A bolt struck the west side of the barn during a storm and ripped off the entire west side and part of the roof. Seven hens were sitting on eggs. The eggs under five of the hens were broken to. bits, but the hens were not hurt Mr. Jones and his son left the building a few moments before It was struck. The barn did not take fire.

D,--George Berg delivered at the office of the Browr. county Auditor the other day the hides of nine baby wolves, upon which he will receive county bounty in the sum of $1 per scalp and $2 per scalp in state bounties. Berg lives near Verdon and a few days ago he discovered an old shewolf In his chicken yard. The animal started away at his approach and Berg got into his automobile and followed her. Across the prairie the wolf took her course with the car In pursuit. The animal finally prrlved at her den and disappeared. Berg reached the spot a few minutes later and with a spade excavated to the home of the wolf, where he found her nine babies. He ylrove the old wolf out asd captured the cubs, whose hides he has sold to the county. • TT When the yoang bride-tobe of greatg& ndinother's day, with delighted fingers, untied the satin ribbons and folded back the tlainty wrappings and held up to admiring eyes the lavender scented, sheer linen lingerie, so white and fresh with its embroideries and hemstitching, she must have said with reason, "Nothing lovelier could be made." Her great-granddaughter of today can say with even greater reason, "nothing lovelier can be made" as she faces the bewildering choice that meets her gam. Since lingerie of all sorts baa become an expression of the talent of the greatest artists of the famous Parisian houses designing clothes for the well-dressed woman, writes a Paris fashion correspondent the wealth of ideas, the fineness of workmanship, the daintiness of decoration, the sheerness of material, the simplicity and rich charm of the articles de trousseau, contrasting with the fantastic Ingenuity of more daring creations, give ample choice for every taste, but alas! not for every fortune. A king's ransom of other days would seem a mere bagatelle in comparison with a single season's lingerie bill for the richly dressed woman of today. Never were silks softer or linens of a finer texture, real laces used more profusely or embroideries more deftly done or tucks and plaits more charmingly combined or decorative motifs more cleverly placed than Inthe amazing collections now awaiting milady's approval. 4hd never were prices higher. New Models for Parisian Brtdea. Many of tike large dressmaking houses making a specialty of lingerie, negligees and tea gowns are now showing new and ravishing models to their Parisian clientele. Foremost among the showing along this line was the exhibition by a well-kn<»'n firm of trousseaux executed for their private clientele. These trousseaux were peculiarly complete In that they included table and bed ltnens. There were tablecloths for formal occasions, rich with deep borders of filet and Brussels laces and beautiful embroidery In bands and motifs, as well as scattered designs, which frequently echoed the pattern of the lace. One cloth of heavy linen relied entirely upon narrow hand-hemstitched bars, forming Interesting oblong shapes, for its decoration. The tea cloths and luncheon sets for more Intimate occasions were becomingly of finer texture, with lighter Brussels and finer filet laces and embroideries of an almost unbelievable lightness of tracery, us well as cloths of rose, yellow and orange linen embroidered In white. Especially interesting and novel tea cloths and napkins were made of fine ecru handkerchief linen. For decoration these had applique borders In scrolls, conventional circles or squares- of self-material. Among the bed linens, to American eyes the peculiarly French, deep oversheet, with its florid embroidery and monogram was of special interest There were large, square pillowcases to match. For every-day wear the pillowcases and oversheets were of very simple design, having deep hemstitched hems and the embroidered monogram of the bride-to-be. Lingerie Conforms to Fashions. The lingerie for these trousseaux was all developed In white linen of a wonderful fineness. This was made In sets of three--nightgown, chemise and culottes. There were those for simpler wear, with the ihonogram of the wearer In small and dainty design. with just a touch of embroidery at the top of the garments and edging of narrow valenciennes lace. Others, more elaborate In character, were extensively embroidered, and all were trimmed with deep edgings of real lace, blnche or valenciennes. Lingerie this season Is cut with special relation to the type and silhouette of the outer garment, which explains the enormous vogue of black underwear, made of triple voile. These garments are sometimes plain with the exception of an arrangement of very narrow plaits, or are edged, top and bottom, with a six-Inch band of cobwebby black lace or embroidered tulle. Mme. Jenny has most original ideas for combinations, of which the corsage Is cut in a high point In the center front From this point two rtb-; bona go over the shoulders and holdf up the back. Another variation of the conventional shoulder ribbons Is obtained by crossing these on the back. The backless chemise, brought In by the backless decolletage, frequently has an amusing triangular motif of silver lace set Into the front, which softens to some extent the outrageously deep V decolletage of the dress. Unique Designs for Less Conservative. A new Item In lingerie has made Its appearance, namely, the htp belt made of double pink chiffon, which Is worn to keep up the uncorseted figure from too greatly straining the seams of the new tightly draped dresses. It Is astonishing how closely styles In underwear follow those In dresses. This Is especially true since the great French dressmaking houses are giving almost as much prominence to lingerie as they are to outer garments.

My periods were irregular, sometimes ftaa or seven months BaTlston, N. Y.--There may be a mystery to unravel In connection with the strange case of Miss Jennie Hall, who for 16 years was held a prisoner by her mother, Mrs. Catherine flail, and another daughter, in a tumbledown shack near Round Lake, a short distance from Ballston, Saratoga county, New York. During all of this period Jennie never saw the light of day except as It may have slightly Altered through a heavily planked window. Never except twice did she see another human being except her mother and her sister. Never In the 16 years until a humane officer from Saratoga entered her dark prison the other day did she see a man, and at sight of the unusual spectacle she fainted. Only One Neighbor Knew. Only one neighbor knew that each a being as she existed, and It was tht% neighbor who finally brought the matf. ter to the attention of the Saratoga County Humane society, whose super-" intendent, William Hennessy, investigated and led the affrighted woman, who is thirty-one years old, away from her prison. Other neighbors considered the Hall family--mother and daughter, as "queer," and the shack In which they lived was avoided. Jennie has the mentality of a child. ing seen In our dresses last summer ! ^ fo«nd b* th«,h"ma'ie °«<*r is in the new modes of lingerie for was we«rinS • 8 this spring. Straight garments on the order of the princess slip, always much worn by French women, are In solid plaiting, whether the slip be of fine white linen, silk or some of the more perishable materials that appear to find great favor among women who do not hold to conservative underwear. In nightgowns we hare the 1830 yoke and puff sleeve so much featured recently In girls' frocks. Quite fantastic In design and colors are the new models In lingerie for the less conservative woman of fashion. These are of crepe-de-chine, triple voile or colored linen In white, trimmed with a color or In solid color with the garniture in a contrasting shade. Among some new designs in French lingerie are elaborate models In c'osed drawers. The new models are of the closed drawer style. All the drawers are mounted on an elastic band and slip on like knickers. Triple voile In both white and colors is a favorite material for underclothes of this type. On a model of fine white linen with valenciennes lace trimmings the lace is in the form of insertion and edging, the former being used as a border design extending up the sides and Joining the two sections in place of an ordinary seam, while the latter forms little tiers of ruffles on the sides just below the band of Insertion. Another model In white linen with Incrusted motifs of white valenciennes lace Is' cut In one piece and barred by a ladder-stitch embroidery, the effect of panels. Each panel at the bottom Is cut Into deep points, the edges of which are scalloped. Between these two pointed pnnels are diamond-shaped medallions of the valenciennes lace. These again appear In each panel half way up the garment apparently she dearly prized, and a child's clothing. Jennie at one time--some twenty years ago--was for a brief time an Inmate of the State Hospital for the Insane at Utlca. When she returned to her home she vanished from sight, to live the intervening years up to the present buried In a living prison. The mentality of the mother and the other daughter Is now being Inquired Into and action In the case of Jennie will be taken accordingly. Mystery In Key. The element of mystery centers around a key found tied In the apron of the mother, Mrs. Hall. Evidently the key fits something, but the somema appear woukaast for two weeks sad [were very painfuL X was sick for about* I year asd a half and I doctored but without lany improvement.

LlTTLK, 348S Livingston St., Philadelphia. Pa. How much harder the daily tasks of a woman become when she suffers from such distressing symptomsandweaknees as did Mrs. Little. No woman should allow herself to get into such a condition because such troubles may be speedily overcome by Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound, which for more than forty years has been restoring Americstt women to health. Plaits Predominate in Paris Lingerie One of the newest undersilps for wear with lace or chiffon dresses is a combination of white \oile and black chantllly lace motifs. On the bodice portion and underneath each lace nk>- tlf on the skirt are the tiniest of handmade tucks, forming part of the trimming. Four triangular lace motifs, two on either side, back and front, Join and hold the bodice In place over the shoulder, there being no straps. Two models, the sketches Just received from Paris, ilfustrate the extensive use of plaits in lingerie. One is a plaited chemise of yellow triple voile trimmed with pale pink Morocco roses, which outline the plaited portion and edge the .top and bottom of the garment. The shoulder straps are of satin ribbon, of the same shade as the roses. Novel garters are made of this ribbon with the same rose trimming. The second Is a nightgown of white triple voile with yoke, short puff sleeves and deep hem of finely plaited rose voile. The trimming consists of an applique embroidery of the Mia voile and blue faille ribbon. Although the more conservative of us may not wish to adopt this colored underwear into our individual wardrobes, It Is nevertheless being shown extensively by the most exclusive Paris dressmakers, and they reygTt q. very great demand for It.

Lace Popular. ce is being used more and more as the summer proceeds. If you can't afford the expensive vestee elaborately trimmed, buy a plainer one and add the touches which you want yourself. STYLES ARE IN GREAT VARIETY •Mlady Has Advantage In Apparel Since No One Line, Color er Fabric Dominates Fold. 'One of the Interesting points In connection with this season's showing of garments is that no one style line, color, or fabric dominates the field. When one style holds complete sway It makes It rather hard for women In general to appear well dressed. Costly, well-made garments In the style will look all right but Inexpensive ones that are not so well made spoil the sartorial horizon. When great style variety prevails In fabric, color aud color combination, as well as line, the costliness of a garment Is not so Important a questiou. >. Generally speaking, regard Ifss of the fact that most skirts are a trifle wider than have been worn for some yeare and that plaited as well as circular effects are approved, the silhouette remains straight.

Never in 16 Years Had She Ssen a Man thing has not as yet been discovered. It is believed that somewhere on the place there Is a burled treasure chest and that in It there Is a missing Inheritance of $10,000 left to the tw® daughters of Mrs. HalL The story is that some time before Jennie's commitment to the Utlca hospital she and her sister fell heir to $5,000 apiece left by their grandfather, who had Just died. It Is certain the money was not used about the old farmhouse, which stands in a rotting condition, hidden amid a dense foliage of trees. The Inference Is that the money was hidden and that the key holds the secret of the treasure. Why the money was hid, if It Is hidden, may be known when the alienist makes his report on the mental condition of the mother. Suction Drew Fireman From Engine.
