INTER MOUNTAIN: BUTTE. MONTANA, 13 AT THE THEATERS. AN EVENING GOWN. There is a new shade of blue which is said to have been designed especially for blondes, the beauties who are said to have gone out of style. But it is certain that opal blue is one of the most beautiful hues that has yet been presented.

It is just the shade of blue that is most beautiful in the opal when reflected against a strong light, natural or artifi- They were delayed, however, by a telegram from Helena announcing that Fred Tucker, a brother of Halford had been seriously injured by being thrown from a horse. At last accountsHhe injury was not as serious as at first reported, and the party may start in a day or two. Mrs. Rollie Gilliam and daughter, Carolina, and her sister.

One of next season's early booking in Butte will be a most elaborate production of the latest Swedish comedy-drama, "A Yenuine Yentleman," with the popular dialect comedian, Ben Hendricks, in the title role.

As the production here will include all of the new and magnificent scenery painted by John H.

Young of the Broadway theater. New York, and a large company of prominent players, it can safely be stated that the attraction will do a banner business. The tour will be under the direction of Arthur C. Alston. A season of comic opera by a company of established reputation for excellence and superb productions is an announcement which will undoubtedly be hailed with joy by the music-loving element of this city.

There is an attractiveness about a superb production of comic opera that is accorded no other form of entertainment. The story is generally Oriental or imaginary, thus permitting beautiful and fascinating art, pretty costuming and delightful music. There is no plot to be closely followed, which often grows tedious and wearisome, but a lively admixture of fun and harmony, two elements that will entertain when all other forms of amusement have become tiresome. Colonel Thompson has certainly surrounded himself with an organization of principals that promises a great season in this city. The Boston Lyric opera company opens at the Grand September 4 for one week.

Of the Flints, who will be at the Grand for one week, commencing Sunday, August 27, the Winnipeg Free Press says: "The audiences at the Winnipeg theater continue to increase, the attraction being the hypnotists, Herbert and Grace Flint. The house was filled to the doors last night, and the laughter grew so uproarious at times that it appeared as though the audience as a whole was hypnotized instead of the dozen subjects on the stage. The "specialties" which were produced by the young men at the suggestion of the doctor, were entirely different from the ludicrous exhibitions of the previous evenings, and some of the unexpected developments were surprising, even to the hypnotist. A number of the most delightful acts were put on under the direction of the doctor's enchanting assistant. One of these was a baseball game, the pitching of four players being equal to star play in the national league.

The concluding effort was an inimitable cake walk in costume." PIANO BARGAIN WEEK. AT THE MONTANA MUSIC COMPANY'S STORE. We have the choicest lot of pianos ever brought to the west, comprising the A. B. Chase, Steck, Crown, Vose, Ellington and Kingsbury; Crown, Chicago Cottage and Monarch organs.

With pale canary and white laces a gown, in opal blue tulle is indescribably lovely. The skirt of an opal blue tulle costume was finished; aroundi the foot in points which were trimmed with several rows of very narrow canary colored lace thickly shirred. The deep color of the face brought out the shades of the blue with marvelous effect. Under the points was a deep knee-ruffle of accordion plaited opal mull.

On the principle that prevention is better than cure, tan may best be avoided by wearing a veil.

The young woman who adheres religiously to a veil through I storm and sunshine will not find the nat ural whiteness of her skin seriously impaired. There are times, however, when one finds it diverting to know how fresh, air feels, and on such occasions one accumulates the deadly trio of tan, sunburn and freckles that cause many an anxious hour. The lemon remedies often given in this column are speedy and effectual destroyers of tan and sunburn, while a liberal application of buttermilk and salt will hasten the departure of freckles quicker than anything else. If possible bathe the face in rain water onct a day and rub with a rough towel, as this gives a brigl healthy glow to the complexion. $20 sets of teeth $10 Dr.
