Ir the bill now bororo the legislature to create a state printer paw, it will be the worst Job" that body ever finished. Certainly with the entire state against the stall and the uaaalmcwa voice of the newspapers of Nob. braaka condemning it, the members of tho house and senate will not vote for It. Thi Courier does no great amount ot bragging or blustering, but gets the business just the same. Our advertising columns tell the tale. Merchants appreciate a valuable medium, and by the way, you may notice it, w publish the advertisements of more lead ing houses than any other paper in the city. City BUonoMa are at band and as usual Tmi Courier U at the front to ak the con ventions, ot democrats, republicans and prc UhlUonbts, to place young men In tho Meld. Lincoln has lots ot them and as young blood has done so much In the advancement of thb city, we think that the same element should be largely rept-essnted again to care for the city's deMlny, For a pboe f clever enterprise, commend us to the Union Paclllo Hallway Co. Of late thb line has been 'smieing some very attract ive and costly advertising matter, the last being large map ot the system, which was received at thb office yesterday, showing the four new states with North and South Dakota properly divided. It b a pretty piece of work and a credit to that popular corporn tte. Ovkr one hundred building permits have been Issued since March first, which includes besides a krge Ibt ot elegant homes, a num ber of costly business blocks. Howls thb for the opening of spring work and the record of but thirteen days? Thb speaks well for our growth and advertbes the city better than thousands of glaring posters or other adver Ustog. THK Chicago Iltrald rightly observes as feUows, "Thlsb a partlcubrly appropriate tbM, fa it not, for the Chicago preachers to teach other by the ears over the question whether hell b literally a lake of fire or eter nal extinction and oblivion! There are nak ed, ad hungry people In thb very town, with ki a stone's throw of some of these churches, for whom uptaee with everlasting fires has fewer terrors than some dominies suppose.

Already tho hoiih of tlio millionaires nnd billionaires nro seen disporting in theso p!uturc3(iio costuiiioa, nnd na tlioy nro bo very prutty nnd sot oir n young boy's bonuty tin nothing cIho can, I will givo n detailed deHurlptlon of how to iiinko ono. I prefer thnt koiiio ono clso would tnko tho contract for keeping them clean. In tho flrat phico tliero Is n pair of snug pants which reach u llttlo bolowtho kneo of blank or dark blue velveteen, nnd leg gings of tho 6uno which havo braiding of silver nil along tho sides nnd on tho Instep. Then thuro is n wltlto linen shirt without collar nnd with very full sleeves. Theso should Im loft open nt tho wrist nml simply hemmed, but many prefer to gather them Into n bishop band. Thoro is tho Jaokut, which Is of velvet to match tho pants, and this is richly ornamented with silver braid nnd embroidery, Tho front should bo almost ono stiff mass of braiding or embroidery, nnd thoro tiro Ht tlosilvorbuttonsnnd loopa, though Itisln pleasant weather left open to show tho lino shirt. In tho illustration there nro no bIcovcs to tho Jacket, but In tho hand somest suits thoro nro velvet alcoves, lined with silk nnd richly braided, which hang open from tho shoulder, giving n very plcturesipio effect. Tho fustuuello or skirt is mado of n hundred or oven moro wedge shaped pieces of linen, each seam nently felled and tho bottom hemmed up an Inch and a half, Great neatness Is required to mnko tho hem qui to smooth. Whon tho pieces nro nil sown together, tlto nar row end nt tho top, tho band is put on just ns on u petticoat, and this buttons around tho waist. Then u sash ot sit rah, or cashmere, or Turkish Bilk three yards long iu wound around tho wnist, leaving short ends. Theso sashes nro invariably red, and there is n twisted fringo at tho ends. Tho fez Is red, with n long bhto tassel, not n blaok tassel, which is Turk ish, whereas this is n Greek costuino. Tliero Is a knlfo sheath in tha belt of this ono, which, doubtless, would delight tho small boy, but it Is by no moans essen tial. Tlio wedgo shaped pieces should bo about flvo inches wido at tlio bottom NEW OUTDOOn COSTUMES FOB UTTLK amis, by two nt tho top, and In that way tho skirt falls always Into graceful folds. Tlio Albanian costumo is tho samo, with tho exception that tho fustuuello is much fuller, n man's kilt often containing as many as llftccn hundred pieces. But tho costumo Is beautiful and very becom ing, and it is tho prldo of tho wearers to havo them spotlessly clean. I think this stylo will becomo very popular for llttlo boys hero. Tho other figures In tho illustration represent n smookod frock torn llttlo girl. Tho material is blue cashmcro, and tliero in a yoko of velvet of u devper shado of bluo. Tills llttlo dress I cltoso for IU simplicity and quaint beauty. It U cosily mado as booh as tho smocitlng stitch is mastered. The blouso suit for tho llttlo boy la of bottlo green 'sorgo with bias bands of plaid stitchctl on. Nothing could bo prettier for a boy of throe to flvo years old. Chubbychops and chatterboxes Iinyo the cunning llttlo dresses which niako one wonder whether thoyaro dolls in baby clothes or babies in doU clothes. Tho way little bits of girls aro dressed now Is so pretty and go In keeping with their perfect loveliness that it leaves nothing to bo desired. Tho now eider down flannel, which looks as soft ns tho swan's down, Is an exquisitely lovely ma terial and just soft and dainty enough to ka nothing of its delicacy when placed next a baby's lovely face. It is to bo seeu for cloaks for Tory llttlo ones In white with bluo or pink spots. Dresses for little girls of from 10 to IS are aaade m.w with some approaches to common sense as well as graco and beauty. They aro neater in outline and much, moro suitable to their age than they have ever bees before in my recol lection Ono vory seasonable and grace ful llttt. wrap wns made of plaid chovlot In gro with dnr) green, nnd thin was worn over n dnrk recti velveteen dress, with n Tarn O'Shn itor cap of tho untno. Another dainty nrd vory pretty out door costumo was of r him colored cashmcro, with ockst flnpj, collar, cuffs nnd ono rovers of Slcltldnno silk In tho samo shntlo as trimming. Added to theso was n shoulder kur t and ono (lot of ribbon to match, and (ho poke bonnet of straw was lined v fth tho Bilk nnd had plumes of tho namr, color. This model could not !k Improved ujion for n girl from 10 to 1!1, and 1. can lo copied In any material. Tho underskirt Is of wood brown camel's hair. For n girl of 10 or 11 n very elegant and peculiarly suitable costumo con sisted of tan colored cashmere plaited alternately In n wido box plait and flvo kilt plaits nil tho way nround. In tho back was n sash of tho samo material tlod in two loops and ends. A jacket of black tricot had n vest front of velvet nnd coid nnd tassels, nlso brnldlug on tho rovcrsod lapols nnd collar. A tan colored straw hat trimmed with blnck velvet loops nnd bows wns worn with this. I noticed In nn importing houso n now invoice of summer hats for llttlo girls, nnd thoy aro queer looking tilings nnd make ono think irresistibly of n barber's polo. Tho crowns nro high and peaked, and tho brims rather narrow nnd slant ing. Tho timid Is wido nnd Is strliwd red nnd white, beginning with n rod In tho center nnd winding spirally down to tho edge. Tliero nro also bluo and whlto, and other colors mingled always with whlto. Thoy nro vory ugly, ns they nro untrlmmed, Perhaps wrcatlui nnd tufts nnd bouquetsofthocxqulslto field flowers and bunches of clover nnd field grasses, nnd tho pretty riblxnis of tho Benson will help them n llttlo. Just now tho milliners nro beginning to recclvo front abroad mysterious llttlo boxeH which thoy do not show, but which contain, ns wo nil know, tho pattern iv'ifi iJT fashions rou ciiuniiYciiors AND CIIAT- tkk nox. bonnets, nnd theso long headed milliners go to work and mnko up n duplicato of each, nnd then when those duplicates havo boon hidden away in tho work room beautifully printed cards of lnvl tntlon aro sent to n select number of cus tomers, who flock In nnd jwy anything tho milliner may ask for her bonnets. Thoso bonnets aro taken homo and hid den ngain, buried, na it wero, to bo res urrected Easter morning. Do you sup poso that nny Indy iu Now York has an intimate friend who is intimate enough to bo allowed n peep at her almost sis ters's bonnet? No, Indeed! Why I know ono Indy who bought two bonnets bo that slio could show ono and keep tho other hidden until Easter Sunday, nnd nfter nil it mined. And just us soon as tho buyer is gono tho milliner sots her girls to work nnd perhaps n thousand bonnets just nllko sco tho light that day. Jerseys dlo n hard death. Thoy nro so very comfortable, so durable and havo so many other recommendations that it Is hard to givo them up. They nro now braided In vermicelli pattorn all over, or thoy havo elaborate pattens of tho Kursheedt trimming, or nro trimmed with passcinenterio or nppllquo, nnd nil this to givo them an nppearanco of nov elty. I noticed n now fanoy in jorsoys this week. Tennis blouses, ynchting blouses and negliges for morning, in tan, belgo, cream, red, rush green, Hn vann brown nnd bluo, nil mado of jersoy cloth, and very pretty they nil nre. Thoy nro mado with sailor collars, yoko effects, or with sonto reminder iu tho trimming of tho Directolro Btylcs now so popular. Blouses for llttlo boys and girls aro also made of tho samo material. Thoso for girls and women nro very handsomely trimmed nnd finished and will doubtless tnko tho placoof any other waist for all ordinary occasions whore they would bo suitable. Tho new carriage wraps and walking costumes are very elegant nnd gmceful. Ono In tho now rush green velvet has or naments ot embroidery in silk nnd gold threads, with fringo of tlto same Ono In blnck Lyons velvet and velvet clsclo has three llttlo coachman's cacs, with a hat to match. Indeed, hats nro mado to match cloaks and gloves to match hats very rigorously this season.

Tho buttons aro of chased gold, and in copying this model can be so, unless tho wearer Is in half mournlnir, when thoy should bo In cro cheted silk. All In all, it b a handsome suit. Ouvk Harper.
