ABOUT BICYCLE DRESS.
How TO Attire Ones Self for Day ON the
silent Steed.

How TO Attire Ones Self for n Day ON the
silent Steed.
A plain skirt is a matter Of couse, and
it should be of serge or tweed or ladies'
cloth or a good make of flannel. The
under or foundation skirt should never
be Less than two and a half yards wide.
An excellent plan is to face this skirt
with velveteen. Also to cut from four
to six Sits, an eighth Of a yard up, max
ing what dressmakers term "a give"
these preventing the dress from drawing
around the feet. The front of the drop
skirt may be plated, but do not use
accordion plaits. The back should be
shirred across the top very full. In
making the waist it is not absolutely
necessary to favor the blouse. Somehow,
unless the blouse is specially becoming,
it looks mannish, or else slovenly ON a
rider when at full speed.
OF course you ride in very loose corsets
or n corset waist, which is better. Then
make the body of your bicycle suit to
conform to your figure, but just as easy
fitting as you can have it and yet fit
we'll. Be particular to have very, very
loose sleeves. Buy enough material for
a. second pair, for they will go soon
enough. A high collar is an abomina-
ton. So are linen cuffs. Have
a rolling collar, use a natty silk
tie under it, fasten the ends securely
with "stick pin," and all other jewelry,
unless it is your club pin or that of your
| escort, leave at home.
The best headwear is a yachting cap,
which fits closely and does not yield to
the temptation to elope with the wooins
breeze as is now and then the case with
| the best-intentioned Tam o'Shanter. The
| ventilated shoe with rubber soles, in use
in the ladies' gymnasiums, has every
| thing to recommend it to a girl rider.

About 500 invalids applied to Father
Mollinger for his blessing during the

were overcome and tainted. They were
revived by attending friends and in some
instances removed to their homes.

LONDON, June 18.-According to pro-
gramme the Prince of Wales was ready
with his apology in the House of Com
mons. So was Berkeley Levett, to whom
the Prince has been acting as a fidus
Achates. Hon. Edward Stanhope, Sec
rotary of State for War, amidst pro-
found silence, and followed by the close
and anxious attention of House crowded
on floor and in gallery, and speaking
with the utmost elaboration, said that
His Royal Highness, the Prince of
Wales, on looking back upon all the cir
cumstances of the gambling case, sauthor-
lied him (Mr. Stanhope) to say that he
now saw the error Of Judgment which he
committed. The Secretary of State for
War also informed the House that Lieut.
Berkely Levett had written to his COM
mander Colonel Strategy Of the Scots
guards) expressing his deep regret that he
had failed to act In accordance with army
regulations.
Mr.. Stanhope concluded his statement
by saying that it was not proposed by
the government to take further action in
the matter. When Mr.. Stanhope had
finished his statement on behalf of the
Prince there was a general outburst of
applause, but when in his concluding re-
marks he declared the matter dropped by
the government the cheers came only
from the Tory benches.
A movement Is on foot in several clubs
to force the resignation or expulsion
of Sir Edward Clarke in consequence of
what is styled his "disloyal" speech in
the baccarat trial, wherein he attacked
the Prince of Wales.
Sir Edward Clarke does not seem to
stagger under the aristocratic displeasure
which he incurred by his attack on the
Prince. Sir Edward is a man of the peo-
PIE, sprung from a respectable family,
bat not akin to the tanta -ra-ra classes.

LENGTH OF WHALES.
Seldom Do They Exceed Seventy Feet and
More Often Under Sixty.

Seldom Do They Exceed Seventy Feet ana
More Often Under Sixty.
Most of the stories we hear about
whales of 200, 300 and 400 feet In length
are the imaginary musings of persons
who have more respect for the size of a
story than for the truth of 1t. Mr..
Sooresby, a very high authority on this
subject, declares that the common whale
seldom exceeds seventy feet in length,
and is much moro frequently under sixty.
Out of 362 whales which he per.
sonally assisted in capturing not one
exceeded fifty-eight feet in length, and
the largest ever heard of being captured
and measured by persons who could be
relied upon only measured seventy-seven
feet. OF the razor-backed whale he has
seen specimens that measured 105 feet.
One of these was found dead in Davis
Straits, which measured 101 feet, and a
skeleton of one found in Columbia river
was 112 feet. Other specimens have
measured all the way from 80 to 100
feet. One cast on shore at North
Berwick, Scotland, and preserved by
Mr.. Knox, was eighty-three feet in length.
These instances seem to establish the
average length of these huge animals. In
his earlier accounts Culver, the eminent
naturalist, with considerable credulity,
says: 'There is no doubt that whales
have been seen in certain epochs and In
certain seas that were upwards Of 800
feet, or 100 yards long"
