Injured In the Wind.

ed , one other fatally hurt and much
(1 ( linage was done to electric signs and
windows here by a windstorm which
struck the city soon after noon. The
wind , which came from the west ,
gained in velocity until at 3 o'clock a
C2-mlle gale was blowing. At G o'clock
it dropped to forty miles an hour ,
which the weather bureau said would
bo maintained until morning. The
gale was accompanied by a drop In
temperature from 40 degrees above at
9 o'clock to 1C degrees at nightfall. A
further drop to 10 degrees was pro-
dieted.
A large iron sign protruding from
i TMP-
the third floor of a building on Hal-

Ingn. It caught n smaller sign and
both foil with a crash.

FOR WOLF SCALPS , $403,211.

Asking Repeal of Bounty Law.
Bismarck , N. D. , Jan. 9. North Da
kota linn paid $403,211 In an effort to
get rid of wolves , according to figures
given out by D. K. Brlghtblll , state
nudltor. The average payment for
the last live years has boon $30,000 a
year , or $3,000 a month. The auditor
says the wolf bounty law should bo
repealed , for there Is no longer any
need of paying a bounty.
In 1009 the total amount of certifi
cates issued by the counties and pre
sented to the auditor for registration
was $39,291.50. This Indicates that
In that year 11,717 wolves wore kill
ed.
In the eastern counties of the state ,
where a largo amount of the tax la
paid because of the higher valuation
and the larger contribution of taxes ,
the least benefit is received and this
has given rlso to complaints. This
Is shown In tbo case of Grand Forku
county , which in 1909 paid a total of
$2,576.48 Into the wolf bounty fund ,
while the certificates from that coun
ty registered in the year amounted
to only $225.

PLUMBERS WERE BUSY.
Norfolk plumbers are letting out a
sigh of relief which announces that
the last water pipe freeze-ups have
been thawed out , after a long siege.
Hotels , schools , business blocks , tele
graph office , saloons , barber shops ,
drug stores and residences numbering
about sixty-five all told , experienced
fieeze-ups. "
Immediately.after the wind had gone
down Monday night plumbers were
called to the telephones , where they
were told by anxious residents that
their bathrooms were out of commis
sion.
Others told of the pipes being froz
en In the cellars and many requests
came for gasoline torches and "blow
ers , " .which one plumber says helps
the breaking of the pipes instead of
aiding the thawing out. From the
time the first freeze-up was announced ,
plumbers wore swamped with calls
from residence districts and came to
town , where their services were of
great Importance. Time and again
after the plumber had thawed out a
frozen section of pipe and had left
the business block he was recalled ,
the water having frozen Immediately
after ho had left the building.
A feature of the unusual amount of
freezing was that there" were very few
flooded cellars or bath rooms. Al
though the pipes broke off and sup
plies cracked and snapped away , there
was no flood , the entire waterworks
being so solidly frozen that the water
had no outlet.
"Come down to my house at once , "
was the telephone call one plumber
received. "I have called for every
plumber In town and they are all busy.
Our water Is frozen up and the pipes
are breaking everywhere. "
Another plumber declares that at
one residence ho found that the pipes
had frozen between two ceilings above
a bath room. The ceilings were only
a few feet apart and on crawling in
side ho came out after much dllllculty.
He made the repairs , but said :
"It put these first water pipes Inhere
hero myself dome time ago , but I can
not recollect how I did it"
Many of the water pipes were froz
en from the motor to the supplies.
Water Commissioner Brummund says
seven meters were frozen.
In some cases water boilers froze
and burst.
The recent freeze-up of waterworks
is the worst in the history of Norfolk
for so short a time.

The Well Dressed
WOMAN
Now York , Jan. 7. Enter the de
butante. And what a charming crea
ture she Is or will be when Dame
Fashion presents her to the world
fashionable. Daughters are Intro
duced to society year after year by
ambitious mothers in much the same
fashion an afternoon tea with sim
ple refreshment and the sisters and
jonng girl friends of the bud pouring
tea and receiving with her.
The ono note of novelty Is always
struck in the debutante's costume ,
which this year Is white.
More white than for many years Is
used by debutantes nt their coming
out receptions and their gowns make
many plays on classical styles. The
empire of more or less modifications ,
sometimes losing Its type altogether
but for the high lifted waist ; the sim
ple Greek robe of scant , flowing line ;
phases of the dlrcctolre with the big
\\uist and tight skirt ; and the klmona
alcove in everything Greek , French ,
nud what not.
One gown worn by a well known so
ciety bud , Is draped in rather clever
fashioned. The underskirt of the
gown is of silver cloth , veiled with
old blue chiffon and the waist , an
ethereal affair , that has a most un
substantial look in contrast with the
tunic , is also of the chiffon with sil
ver trimming. The drapery of the
skirt consists of long , unshaped
Icligths of soft blue satin draped to
cross at front and back and extend
into the train. All the edges of the
satin are finished merely with the sel
vage , one of the small details of the
modes that arc at present running Into
little short of a craze.
Frocks with the directoire air arc
liked by matrons as well as by de
butantes for the reason that their
short , round skirts and dainty waists
make the wearers appear more youth
ful. And yet , no matter how much
money Is put on these dresses , or how
much embroidery and jewel trimming ,
they never merit any other name than
frock , because they are so simple.
There Is a prim little air of the school
room about them all. f
However , with the gowns tnat em
ploy the train separate from the skirt , '
that is a different sto'ry. Nothing is
more interesting , more graceful or ,
more courtly than these dresses , and
when the train is carried over the .
arm the ensemble loses nothing in
elegance.
Everything is put in evening dress
es this year pearls , colored stones ,
silk and chenille fringe , fur , flowers
of gold or silver , lace , embroidery and
fancy passamenterle effects. Some
dresses have a little of every kind and
when used with discretion the effect
is not heavy. Tulle and mousseline
are gaining in popularity , If that is
possible. Yards and yards of It are
put on everything. When one would
think n dress all finished and ready
to bo put on , there Is yet an overdress
of tulle or mousseline to veil the en
tire thing. The debutante wears white
or something very pale and shimmer
ing ; more matuic women don drap
eries of black or dark colored tulle ,
to enhance the beauty and elegance
of their toilettes. The air of being en
veloped In a cloud seems to take with :
the mass. The coutourlers are mad
on the subject.
Quite a deal of silver grey is worn
by the leaders of fashion. An unusu
ally charming frock Is of meteor in
this shade of grey , veiled with mous-
s line a tone darker. There are bias
folds about the underskirt and hem i
and other little stltchlngs on the low
cut bodice , all in rose colored satin.
Narrow black chantllly lace Is used to
outline the throat. The decollete Is
cut straight across the front and back ,
to look like a kimono waist without
the long sleeves. This is an affect
that is quite sought for in the new
est frock designed by French dress
makers. It is shown also In afternoon :
frocks , the corsage built up on a white
mousseline gulmpe that has the effect
of a decolletage.
At the back of the gown where the
lose satin meets In a point , the place
is marked with a big bow of the same
color , with long streamers. The frock
is one of the best that has yet appear
ed. It may be worn either by a de
butante or a woman in the 40s and
yet lose none of Its seriousness that
Is to say , If It be possible for any of
the frocks made without a train to be
serious.
One of the newest features of bodice
trimming is beading. Its vogue is
widespread and there is no limit to
the gowns and waists on which it maybe
bo used. The inexpensive and costly
show it. Even the new stoles and
muff exploit beading in some for or
other. An example might bo cited in
a stole of black tulle designed for
southern wear. The stole has a turn
over collar of black cut in rovers at
the front , and these are elaborately
trimmed with white beads. The muff
is of black satin and chiffon in a sort
of envelope shape with a square turn
over on the front of the muff. This
square turnover flap is lined with
black satin embroidered with white
beads and the corners are turned back
nt each side. Even black velvet Is
embroidered with beads , but more
sightly by far Is chiffon , nioussollne
or silk. Therel s something naturally
startling about black velvet and white
beads in combination. The chiffon
waists worked with Indian bead work
nro deservedly popular and their
prices are extremely moderate when
the amount of work entailed is taken
Into consideration.
Ono of the hopeful signs of the
times in hand mada Jewelry Is the
fact that the enthusiasts who are doing - I

Italy. Germany or the orient for their
motives , but are finding for themselves
In the fields , along the roadside and
on the scashoie. The craze for "now
nit" so-called , has happily passed , and
that stage over , all that was good In
It is being used In such work. Jewel
ry Is ceitalnly more popular this sea
son than ever it has been , and even
women of wealth are taking to Imita
tions , so cleverly are the designs filled
Kith mock stones wrought.
Among the Inexpensive ornaments
Is the abalone pearl , which 1ms caught
the rainbow tints of the sea and Its
wonderful opalescent blues and
preens. In Its loveliest shadings it
suggests the black opal without the.
liery gleam of the gem. As the abalone -
lone pearl has been used in the past
It has-been mediocre and cheap , but
ns the true artist employs it , its tones
lend themselves to the color scheme
for which ho Is working as nothing
else can. This gem is set Into all
-oils of hair ornaments , pins , hatpins ,
brooches , etc. , and will continue
nmong . HIP high favorites throughout
Lho spring.
For designs , the dragon fly is popu
lar. ' It is done in natural colors and
shudings in enamel , the eyes being of
jewels and the body of silver gilt.
Sharing favor with the dragon fly Is
Ihc bar brooch , while hatpins of
carved ivory stand in a class by thorn-
selves as a new vogue.
