a sketch of the new gown in which the
girl of the period will tramp through
the mountains a few months hence.
This, too, is tweed, in narrow stripes,

around the bottom, and faced under
meath with thin patent leather, which
prevents its becoming draggled, and
can be easily cleaned. The edge of the
flap which buttons over ON the right

Do they offer a complete guarantee to
those who play there?
Numerous examples taken from the
most stylish Of Paris clubs prove easily
the contrary. Nevertheless, it must he
said that in general gambling is going
on honestly. Those who are mana
gers of clubs know perfectly well that,
in fact, these clubs are only toll
Grated, and that the police prefect can
shut them up whenever it pleases him,
in spite of the influence of those per-
sons which protect them. To say the
truth, since the summary action of Mr..
Camescasse, who closed in 1884 the
greater number of Paris "tripots," the
changed. One does not see any more
to-day, as in those times, those ill
famed places at every corner. The Gus
toners of those houses have divided
themselves, probably, between the
privileged clubs that escaped from the
prefectorial decree, and the ungoyerened
''raccolage" which existed before 1884
is done in our days in more discreet
manner.
In former times the cashiers of clubs
used to lend enormous sums. The po-
SitiOn of club mOney-lender was very
lucrative and allowed certain low en-
ployeS of the kitchen to become million
aires. To-day, thanks to the decree of
M. Gagnon, the money lenders make no
more advances OF at least not in an open
way. The money loaned to those un-
lucky gentlemen l spoke of at the be-
ginning of this by the managers of
clubs was an exception that only proves
the rule.
In former times, on certain days. lux
urious free lunches and dinners were
offered in several of these ''tripots'' to
attract gamblers by this gratuity. To-
day this fashion has been dropped.
Perhaps it is because customers are
numerous enough, or that the ''cag-
notte'' kitty whose takings are lessen
ing does not allow any more of this eX-
travagance. The gambling in itself is
still the same.
Let them suppress the croupier, and
confine to punters the delicate mission
of undoing the packages of cards and
the shuffiing business, and the security
of the gamblers seated round the bac-
carat table will not be increased. And
even then when a banker would be dis
covered fixing the cards he would al
ways ma punterS naive enough to play
against him.

The accompanying sketch shows the
details of the gown. It is rough tweed
in irregular plaids of any color the
wearer. chooses. The skirt, which is
really in two sections, after the divided
model, is so closely pleated that it hangs
as one, and it is only the increased free
nom of movement which makes its
Wearer aware that it is different from
the ordinary walking skirt. A very
short, wrinkled tablier modifies the un-
trimmed look of the straight skirt; and
the ioose-fittng jacket opens over a
pleated shirt of embroidered linen or
pique, whose turned-over collar is fin
ished by tight little cravat of lawn.
The round. feZ-like cap has a miniature

NEW YORK, April 26, 1S9O.-Our
sketches this week are redolent of
bright, breezy outdoor life, of long, de-
lightful days on shaded, winding coun-
try roads, of mountain climbing and sea
shore rambles and hours spent, rod in
hand, by quiet trout streams; in fact, of
all those open air delights which are in
such marked contrast to the more arti-
fetal amusements of the winter season.
And. in order that such occupations
may lose nothing of their pleasure be-
cause of hampering, inappropriate cos
tunes, it is, of course, Redfern who
comes to the fore with models which
will confer comfort, grace and style
upon their wearerS, whether they in
cline to walking tour, to the saddle of
the equestrienne or to that more un-
wonted steed the bicycle.
For riding this last vehicle genuine
novelty has been prepared. and one

Special Paris Letter
Two Well-knoWn. club men committed
suicide lately. The one was stock
broker of the Paris bourse. who chose a
silent spot in the Bois de Boulogne;
while the other, a young man of the
best prospects for his future. killed him
self in room of one of the obscure
hotels of the town. To these two sui
eide cases. attributed to heavy losses at
the gaming tables, a third has to be
added, the one of Mr.. Tt. one of the
best known boulevardiers, who is also
victim of the cards.
All these deaths happened quickly
one after the other, touching the elegant
world of Paris, not only in its brilliancy,
but also in its responsibility, and are of
the sort to attract public attention.
There is some talk of an investigation;
others pretend that this has already
been begun, and that the police pre-
lecture is disposed now to take radical
measures to give to gamblers more
guarantees for security. At any rate,
whatever may arise. the gambling
house question" is on the tapis again.
Will it be settled this time? 1t is
doubtful.

Then comes along an Englishman who
puts five hundred louis in the bank.
He ''jumpS" after his first coup" and

minutes fifty thousand francs and more.
1t is here necessary 10 observe that
the leaders of the big gambling clubs
belong, as rule. to the cosmopolitan
world, such as Russians, ROumanianS,
South Americans. and sometimes to
Americans and Englishmen. Names

and in 'soff' are in abundance there.

make up for the losses and wait for
some banker to come up from
whom they could win the sums
lost in the previous banks. Dur
ing this time excellent dinners are
served for almost nothing in the dining
rooms. Conversation turns generally
on the utility of drawing on five or
about the incidents during the recent

Some Members OF Kis Flock Can't

SARANAc. Mich, Aug. 17.-Parson J. w.
Arney, the li5era-ininded Methodist
preacher here, who owns and loves speedy
horses, now seems likely to get into trouble
with his conference. The parson not only
likes good horse himself, but thinks his
neighbors ought to cultivate similar re-
gard. To further this he thought it good
scheme to have little race meeting for
country horses, and last week the event
came off, the unusual proceeding attracting
the attention of the entire country. While
many OF his flock not only sympathized
with the reverend gentleman in his ad-
vanced views, but aided him in carving
them out, the more strait-laced thought it
was time to cali halt, and demanded that
the conference meeting of the Methodist
Episcopal church. to be held at Muskegon
september 10, shall demand an expiana-
ton. This, it is understood, it will do. and
demand that he either give up his horses
or the ministry. The matter is hotly uis-
cussed. What action the parson will take
is unknown. Through il all he retains his
temper, and the real respect of even those
who believe he did wrong. Those who
know Mr.. Arrey best say he will never be
coerced into giving up his horses.

who lives on the corner of California and
Webster streets, was shot in the abdonsen
when near his residence by two masked
men. Mr.. jacobson had been in town and
was returning home. He was on the last
car but one. and got off at Webster street
As he stepped toward the sidewalk he
was met by two masked men, who told
him to throw up his hands. The words
were hardly uttered, and Mr.. Jacobson had
not time TO obey, before shot was fired by
one of the men, the bullet entering the abb
domen. As soon as the shot was fired
both men ran and made their escape in the
darkness. 1t is supposed that the object
of the assault was robbery and the shot
was the result of nervousness on the part
of the would-he robbers.
The police have been working on the case
all day, and say they do not believe the
shooting was done by foot-pads. Frank
Hecox, janiror at the Cooper Medical Insti-
tute says he passed the corner of California
and Webster streets not ten minutes be-
fore lhe shooting was done. He saw two
men crounchiug in the shade OF Jacobson's
house, and few minutes later heard the
shot fired. Jacobson is dangerously
wounded, and his injuries may prove fatal

fish are injured thereby. The fish commits
sioner of the state notified Mr. Davis, the
superintendent of the Carbonado mines,
that the coal must no longer be washed
into the Carbonate river, the stream on
which the mines are located. The coal is
of such a character that it must neces-
sarily be washed or it is practically
useless, and the only stream
available for that purpose is the
one which the commissioner has forbidden
the miners to use. The result is that the
minesbe compelled to,close. which will throw
hundreds of men out of employment, and
to an extent affect the coal trade of this
city. The probability is that the law will
be repealed by the legislature, which as
sembles in special session this month. but
in the interim the mines will be shut down.
