The short Hair Craze.

ChlcaBO If1Dune.
Yes, it was Ellen Terry who started the
short-hair craze. Rose Cleveland, the
Presidents sister, was probably the first
to catch the fever, and from this lady the
contagion has spread until now nearly
every city and town in the country has
large number of well-developed cases.
Neither the young nor the old are spared
Why, last week woman about 4S years
old came here and threw herself into one
of the chairs like three. times-a-weelS
shaver. Did she want her hair cut?
Well, should hurry to reply she did. l
run the shears around and up and down
the back of her Uranium until found
some wrinkles back of her ears, and then

the burrows of time. Why, sir, that
woman was so Inundated that she left
orders to have her tresses made into o
wig and switch, and only yesterday saw
this lady promenading on State street
with her hair fastened on with pins, nets
and strings. sob, this epidemic is just

naval Academy Recommend ations.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.--Capt. Ramsay,
superintendent of the Naval Academy, in
his annual report to the Secretary Of the
Navy, recommends that permits for adj
mission as cadets be issued one year prior
to the time fixed for examination, and re-
news the recommendation that all candi-
dates for admission be required TO report
for examination on the 18th day of May.
The number of cadets to go on the next
practice cruise renders it necessary
that q ship to take the place of the Dale
shall be fitted out for practice ship and
sent to Annapolis in May. 1t will, says
Captain Ramsay, be impossible to do
justice to the cadets and give them the
required instructions with only one
practice ship. He recommends that
selections for the line engineer
corps and marine corps be made
at the end of the four years. course in
stead of the six years. course. From the
average number of vacancies occurring
each year cadet who has completed his
four years course can form close esti-
mate of his chances of getting nm appoint
ment in the navy. Those who feel there
il no chance of IN appointment take little
or no interest in their duties on boart
ship and only keep themselves up in pro
fessionnl matters sufficiently to pass thu
examination necessary to nm honorable
| discharge with one years pay.
