MANY PEOPLE INTERESTED.

City Controller Morrow was consulted by
number of persons yesterday. who wanted to
know if the flaps hanging down in front of
awnings had to be removed. The Controller
interviewed the City Attorney on the subject,
and the latter decided that there could be no
objection to the front flaps so long as they did
not hang below the prescribed limits. The City
Attorney holds that the end pieces are OBJ
structions because they cut off the view.

True. but it is hard to take seriously the
conventionalities of a mourning which has
become SO purely conventional. Still if one
must, let it be said that it is only Jet black
Black is no more definite than is blue. There
are innumerable blues and of black almost
as many. Blacks with blue shades or green
shades or gray shades or brown shades are
not mourning. Black cashmere is probably
more used than any other one fabric for
the mourning gown, though black serge-a
wool serge, fine and lustreless-black Hem
rietta cloth, black mohair or camel's hair is
standard. For hot weather there is nothing
better than sheer thin nun 8 yelling. ANY one
of these fabrics must be made up with the

ing violation of good taste in dress possible
than an elaborate or much trimmed mourn
ing gown. 1t stamps its wearer at once as

The style follows closely the quietest shapes
of the day. Thus for the street long
wasted bodice very possibly seamless with
the fullness plainly gathered in front in
stead of being confined with ribbon or
buckle, and skirt with undraped black and
having the front either straight also or with
long Greek apron slightly caught up on the
left side. Such q skirt may be bordered, if
wished, with a deep Grape band. Sometimes
a polonaise design is preferred, turned back
on the bodice in revers faced with Grape.
Walstcoat and jacket designs are liked by
some women, the vest being of Grape. but
this is in many ways less desirable.
For the house the soft, folded Empire
waists. longer wasted than last season, are
the best possible, for be it understood the
stiffness and, SO to speak, formality of
mourning dresses has gone out of them.
They now look as if they could be lived in.
Grape is not disposed in awkward panels
and there is no effort to get woodenness and
precision. The house skirt may have wide

DID NOT CHANGE HIS FEET.

A New Orleans Horse Canters Fifteen
Miles without Breaking.
There was an unusually large attendance
at Audubon Park few days ago, the at
traction being novel race in which man
and horse were contending on pretty
nearly even terms. Mariana Bialsa had
agreed to ruiz fifteen miles against any
horse that should be pitted againsr him un-
der these conditions:
The Spaniard offered prize of 800 for
any horse that would walk, run, trot, pace,
rack or lope fifteen miles under saddle in
less time than he would run the same
distance; but it was in the agreement that
the horse should adopt certain gait at the
start and not exchange it for another in
any part of the race, and it was through
this part of the contract that tho element Of
uncertainty was introduced into the con-
test.
Everybody knew that anything of a fair
saddle horse could cover fifteen miles in less
time than it would take man to run the
same distance, says the New Orleans Times
Democrat, but she prevailing impression
seemed to be that no horse could be found
that could be made to lope. trot, gallop.
pace or rack fifteen miles without changing
its gait.
The horse selected for the contest was
MISUNDERSTANDING black eelding Of good
size and substance, and having fair share
of quality, though he was not handsome
horse. He was ridden by his owner, MIR.
r. L. Harvey, who, with the big Mexican
saddle he used, must have made up an i'm
post of fully 16O pounds.
It was announced that the horse would
slope" (canrer) and it was understood that,
while he might shift his feet as often as he
chose, he would lose the race if he trotted
one half the length. Before the start the
man was the favorite, as it was expected
that the horse would drop into trot when
shifting his lead from left to right. or from
right to left, while no one appeared to con-
template the possibility of the horses ao-
complaining the whole distance without
once changing his feet.
II was nearly o'clock when the contest
ants made their appearance. The Spaniard
was very gaily attired in hesh-c olored silk
tights, white kid slippers trimmed with
scarlet, a scarlet silk handkerchief ON his
head, . cream-colored undershirt Of silk
net and beautifully embroidered trunks
and collarette of blue silk. q Nsaag st
Starting little back of the mark, they
moved up and took the word together, the
man at the pole on long swinging trot, and
the horse about the middle of the track in a
slow canter. The horse Immediately took
the lead, and he continued to draw steadily
pleted the fifteen miles without having once
as much as shifted his feet for the purpose
of changing his lead), and was more than
five miles ahead of Bielsa.
As will be seen by the time of each mile,
Mr.. Harvey rated his horse admirably from
first to last. and at the conclusion of the
race he was warmly congratulated by hosts
of admiring friends. The following table
will give an accurate picture of the per-
fOrmance:

Especial Correspondence OF TEE INDErENDENr.]
NEW YoRk, July 2.-The number of peo-
pie who find the wearing of Grape or of any
outward badge of unhappiness repugnant
to their feelings increases yearly. The
widows weeds call the attention of every
caaual observer at time when least Of all
she wishes stranger to read her story in
her attire, or peer for sight Of the pale
face under her veil. Not that she. could or
should wear scarlet poppy bonnet, but the
regalia Of heavy mourning make uniform
by which she becomes a marked figure. II
is not long since knew OF woman's lay
ing aside her sable garb after wearing it
for two or three months only, simply be-
cause she felt the sacred privacy of her
grief intolerably invaded by the conspicu-
business of her clothes. She preferred to 20
up and down and about her business in
quiet, sober colored frocks which did NO
violence to her feelings and yetdrew no
eyes.
In spite of this smolderirg protest against
the mourning color, there never was time
when the reins of fashion in this depart
ment were held more closely or the lash
was asking a dressmnker how she contrives
to put, a family into black between death
and a funeral. "Oh," she said, ''thc dresses
are run together, with hasting threads
mostly, and afterwards they are returned
to me to be stitched property"
And how can woman who has just suf-
fered bereavement stand to be fitted?"
Indeed, Iask myself that question often,
lar at suoh times. They notice and find
fault with every little thing"
Respectful comment is almost impossible.
