GOLD STRIKE I
REPORTED ■
AT MARSHALL
Late arrivals from Fairbanks report
that a new strike lias been made on f
the tributaries of the Yukon river |
about fifty miles above Marshall City. *
Just what the extent of the strike was 1
could not he learned. '
Information was also conveyed that 1
grub was rather a scarce article at *
tile scene of the strike, the miners be
ing short of many things.
For some time past it has been (
known that men were doing consider- j
able prospecting on the tributaries (
above Marshall, the exact locality not (
being disclosed. From the outside in
formation had also been received that t
a new discovery Was about to take
place that would rival the bos; days
of Fairbanks. This statement "as
made by oldtimers who lived in the
lower country and who are at the (
present on the Outside. Taking all
things into consideration there may (
he considerable truth in the new re- (
port., but it is a little too early to tell, t

BRAZILSTARTS i
PAN-AMERICAN 1
ORGANIZATION
- t
c
WASHINGTON, March 6.—Brazil’s i
foreign office has established a pan- *
American bureau as a division of its j
organization, and the development is
attracting most favorable comment (
at the state department and in govern- ]
menl circles here. Through this
bureau, according to advices received i
here, Brazil proposes to crystalize her 1
support of the doctrine of pan-Ameri- ■
can solidarity.
The work of the new division is to
be entirely devoted to practical pan
Americanism. It is the result of sug
gestions made at pan-American con
t'ereuces that have been held in the
last ten years. So far, Brazil is the |
first country to set up such an or
ganization although every country of
the two Americas have endorsed the
suggestion.
Activities of various organizations
of the different nations of North and
South America, as well as pan-Ameri
can organizations such as the pan
American Union, will be carefully
'studied by experts of the Brazilian
bureau. Whenever it is possible for
Brazil to co-operate in tl’e work of
such organizations in other countries
the new bureau will suggest it to the
government. It will also co-ordinate
and superintend undertakings of Bra
zil in connection with similar work of
other American countries, and officials
here are of the opinion that much
practical effort for the benefit of all
the countries on this hemisphere will
result.
Dr. Antonio Jansen do Paco, t'oriil
erly director of protocol and the great
est Brazilian authority on internation
al treaties, has been appointed direc
tor of the pan-American bureau. His
assistant is Ur. Raphael Mayrink, a
diplomat of distinction and wide ex
perience. He is a graduate of Paris
and Berlin universities and joined the
foreign office in 1900.

KEEPING CLOSE TAB
ON MEXICAN REFUGEES
EL PASO, Tex., March C.—Govern
ment agents are watching closely the
meetings which are held here each
Sunday by political and other refu
gees from Mexico who are seeking to
obtain guarantees for their safe re
turn. The announced purpose of these
meetings, which are held by the Union
de Mexicanas, is to send delegates
to Mexico and to the peace conference
at. Paris to obtain, if possible, these
guarantees. But the American gov
ernment agents have detected several
political agitators and former military
leaders of various factions among the
leaders of this movement <tnd are
watching to see that tile union is not
converted into a political-military
junta for aiding some military faction
in Mexico. Another organization
called the Alienza Liberal de Mexi
canas, is also having meetings here
and has expressed a similar purpose.
This organization excludes all former
Huerta followers, while the Union ad
mits all factions.

JARMONY IN DRESS
Ine Shade or Color Combination
Favored by Many.
icarf, Turban and Bag All of the
Same Material—Shoes Are Also
Given Consideration.
This business of dressing all In
ne shade or in a harmonious elim
ination of two colors at the most, ob
erves a fashion correspondent, is an
[lea that the well-dressed French
roman is very clever uhoui hut which
epresents almost loo much time for
he average American to devote to ^
uch a purpose.
Even when the costume was al
owed more latitude in this matter
he French woman had a knack of se
eding her clothes so that they obvi
usly were meant to be worn together j
it spite of their dissimilarity. ,
Just at present the scarf and turban (
eem to be demanding especial atten- J
ion, and an, attractive way of mak- ’
ng them conform to convention is to
avo tlie hat, the scarf and possibly 1
he bag aM of one material. If the 1
hoes match either the coat or the <
olor of tlie scarf, then all is well. s
One young woman seen recently 1
arried out tlie idea of matching the I
ostume to tiie last nonessential de- i
ail—whether by accident or by do- ;
ign one can only guess. Her suit, ,
urban and scarf were all of duvetyn, ,
I’hich was of a pinkish tan color,
ailed lea shade. Iler shoes and
loves matched also, and under one
rm she carried an important looking
lortfolio of exactly the same color. .
!o unusual was the result of this odd
ostume that she attracted consider*
hie attention as she strolled along,
pparently unconscious that uny one
vas looking at her.
In tills ease the scarf and the
urban were of the same material, and
lie fact that it was humble duvetyn
letracted nothing from its smart
less. The main thing seems, indeed,
o be the similarity and not tlie mate- i
ial. Fur, bands of fur, braiding, etn
iroidery, angora and quilting are all
n use to bring the point of similarity
mt. For dress affairs and ineidental
y for tlie fortunate possessors of the
vherewithal there are the most at
ractive sets of squirrel and various
ither furs, consisting of muff, scurf
uni turban, and sometimes a bug.
’ekan, which we call fisher, is the
•hoice of Paris at the moment, and a
,'eritubie rage for long stoles of this
ur has sprung up, although silver fox
ind squirrel have a well-established
dace.
MODISH COSTUME OF VELVET
Outfit, Particularly Original, Is Con
structed of Black Material With
Winsome Chinese Blouse.
A very original costume shown re
cently was one of black velvet with a
Chinese blouse. Defying almost every
preconceived idea of what fashions
lire supposed to be, the most notice
able feature of the suit was its ex
treme chic and up-to-date air. In the
first place it was semi-litted, rather
more at the back than we are accus
tomed to seeing, and then it wus cut
exactly knee length.
Perfectly plain mannish revers ex
tended to below the normal waistline
and were bound with velvet- Milt .«
pocket or a slush relieved its severe
blackness pud the sleeves were slight
ly wider at the wrists us an only con
cession to the ipode. No visible means
appeared at the front by which f-1
fasten (in? font, for buttonhofeS or
buttons were absent, ;ind the fronts
just touched. Plain tailored suits We
have had 111 plenty, but the extreme
pocketless plainness of this model and
its length sets it apart, The skirt was'
plain and rather narrow and the Chi
nese blouse of blue and black wns
held with a cord girdle finished with a
huge tassel.
