young lady at Newport, says Clara
Belle in New York letter, suffered a loss
some weeks ago that panied her exceed
lngly. People who despise worldly vanity
will not understand how a society girl
treasures the really valuable visiting cards
that are left at her door. Sine always has
one mirror in her boudoir stuck full of the
cards aud notes that come to her from her
choicest and most distinguished friends
The Newport young lady took an especial
pride In her collection. for she is a favorite
with the best people, and has been
the object OF attention of all the for
elgners OF distinction that have visited
here for the past few years. She possessed
the cards OF dukes and counts, and, you
may be sure, these valued pasteboards oceu-
pied conspicuous place in her mirror. A
good many of her girly acquaintance are
welcomed by her in her boudoir during
day, therefore when she missed from her
mirror all of her best cards she was unable
to fix upon the one who might most nat
urally be the purloiner. There was one
young lady, however, who was living over at
Narragansett Pier and who had called on
her one day when visiting Newport, and
she knew this particular girl to be just out
side her immediate set, and rather amDi-
tlous to be thought wholly in the swim. So
she asked girl friend who happened to be
running over to Narragansett one day, to
call on the suspected girl and look to see if
the missing cards were in her
mirror. The friend did so, and re-
ported on her return that the cards
were there. Thereupon the angry New
portian sailed in hot haste to Narragensett,
went directly to the girl who had stolen the
cards, and by sheer intimidation and threats
of personal violen 30 compelled her to return
them. They are now hack in their legiti-
mate mirror and the Narragausett maiden
does not dare to make another trip to New
port for fear that their enraged owner will
shed her blood in Bellevue avenue.
The summer paraSol says the New York
World, is like the summer girl. 1t has ways
of its own, and the reasons for them are
often devious and past finding out. Ao-
cording to the summers dictates the sum-
mer paraSol is to be carried upon mountain
eering trips and upon excursions where a
walking stick is required and where an al
penstock was formerly used. The handle is
made specially long for this purpose, and
the cover is supplied so that the parasol
may not become worn by the excursions.
The material is very fine, so that the
whole, when rolled up and put in its case, is
no larger around than an alpenstook and
serves the purpose just the same. When a
place of rest is reached and the summer
woman desires to be sheltered. she takes off
the gay little case, unfurls her parasol, and
This is said to be the real reason why such
very fancy cases are made this summer
But truth to tell, they seem to be put to
many different use. In the evening when
the only planet visible is the cold moon.

The scene, says the New York Times,
was the interior of parlor car; the time
was near the close Of a warm afternoon last
week, and the dramatis personne were a
handsome young matron, her two children,
one girl of IS months, and the other boy
OF perhaps 81, and cross man. The man
occupied a chair opposite those of the other
party, and as the children grew restless and
difficult to keep quiet, his annoyance and
choler rose considerably beyond the visible
point.
Suddenly the little boy, running down
the car, Uripped and fell against his little
sister, who was toddling to meet him. Both
fell, the boy getting bump, while the baby
