Says the Sweetwater Gazette: A high Fl
toned Chinaman, with stand-up collar, |

city dandy. He claims kin to the Mon
golian now in jail. and arrived here
from Denver. He has adopted 'Meli- /
can style In all but the head gear. The
traditional cue still stays by him. and

Says the Glasgow Times: The change
in the riding habit worn by the princess
Of Wales has been the subject of much
talk and discussion among the ladies in
England and may be interesting to
horsewomen. The new riding habit is
made with a short skirt gored to the
knees, SO that the position Of the rider
is safer in the saddle, being unencum-
bered with the heavy folds and useless
length of drapery hitherto worn. The
skirt cannot be blown about, and is
thus prevented from revealing the foot
and ankle, which can never look grace
full when stretched over the side of the
horse to reach the stirrup. The skirt
worn by the princess is not much
longer than IN ordinary drawing room
costume and light, easily raised by the
wearer without the danger of causing a
stumble, which SO continually happens
with the riding habit usually worn.
