TnE RAEAHAS Hat The story of how the
habaga> hat, now 50 fashionable in Paris, was
invented is most curious one. For a lorg
time ii was mystery, but the narrative of its
origin has recently been told. As it may in
time work It's way to our side Of the ocean, it
will probably interest those who may chance to
Wear it to know that that notorious creature,
Cora Pearl, WAS the Inventor Of the chapcau.
Miss Pearl, as the story runs, attended a bIli-
liant supper at the Mason Dorce after witness
Ing w. Sar,lou's play Of "RaLagas." While
NJ the table the whim seized her to manutac-
ture I new sort of hat which >ha predicted
would soon becomc the fashion. Carrying ont
her caprice, she took hat Of one Of the gentle
men present, cut the b,lm off with a table
knife aud requested the owner of the hat to
crush it in with his fist with all the force he
could give to the blow. This was done, and
the result was uondcscript hcadcoverlng,
round in shape, and with most uproarous
turn She then called for a green veil and a
ribbon, and declared that she would wear that
hat for the rest cf the season in the Champs
Ely>ecS and elsewhere. She was as good as
her word, and after while fashionable mo-
dstc took up The idea, and ladies who neither
knew nor cared whence the hat originated
adopted the fashion as an exquisite novelty.
This eccentric bonnet is not only curious in
shape but it is Worn cuiouSy. 1t Is covered
with veil and is placed on the back OF the
head, rs ii it were going to fall at every mo-
uicnl.

commitments. II the Register and It's
,,jculs proposed to make good their
rbreu. to call tho Legislature together,
hi. kind oil newspaper discussion would
;. pertineut. for then the appeal would be
% the people. But they have accepted
the situation, and signiaed their wish to
have judicial settlement OF the contro'
yersy, with meekness that is almost pa
ae,ic. The question has been relegased
10 the courts, with an agreement that
there Is 10 be no avoldable delay. This
nciDg true, tho usefulness OF further ex'
h,p,Iiye discussions in the press covering
,b.p,iuls to be considered by the courts,
q no; clearly apparent, unless the purpose

decide this question to suit US, then
we may be justified in reviewing and
correcting them; but for. the present
We are Inclined to let them earn
their money and not inclined to furnish
opinions Tor them 10 advance. With these
views, we suggest to our contemporary q
truce on the constitutional question TIL the
Courts have tried their teeth on 1t. There
are kindred questions that might DO dis
cussed with propriety. For example the
Register might explain why that cslebra'
ted call sigucd by IS members ot the
legislature has not been issued, and why
is not now deemed expcdIent to have
an extra session Of the Legislature. But

lhc Courts are to pass upon, we would
rather see them work that up themselves
aud earn their salaries.
