A Highly Perfumed Dog.

Last week one of San Francisco's
talented Knights of the Grip landed
in Carson and after filing his order
book, accepted the invitation of one
of our local Nimrods to spend the
Sabbath in pursuit of the feathered
denizens Of the country. Sunday
morning the drummer, equipped for
the chase, entertained his host for an
hour before breakfast by recitals of
his numerous exploits in forest and
stream, and incidentally averred that
there was no animal or bird that
wore hair or feathers that he could
not ''call the turn" on, in fact that
he was walking treatise on zoology.
A little before noon Mr. Nlmrod and
the drummer stacked arms beside a
spring and prepared to take a crack
at their solid and liquid refreshments.
An old, deserted, prospector's cabin
about hundred yards from the
spring suggested wood supply for
fire and the drummer volunteered to
furnish the fuel necessary, and set
out for the hut. A few minutes lat
er Mr.. Nimrod was startled by a
whoop that would have done infinite
credit to a Sioux brave and upon
looking in the direction of the sound
beheld the geological drummer going
through series of antics which would
have done credit to professional
contortionist. Before he had recov-
cred from his establishment the
drummer came down the trail liter~
ally on the fly. As the wind was
blowing down the trail towards the
spring, Mr. Nimrod was under no
necessity to enquire the cause of the.
sprinting exhibition, for
borne upon the breeze was the un~
odor of skunk, pure and
and as the unfortu-
nate drummer drew near the spring
his companion retreated to the wind
ward After the drummer had re-
loved himself of his clothing and
wrapped himself in blanket, expla
nation revealed the fact that the
drummer who knew all about beast
and bird that was worth knowing,
had mis- aiken a friendly polecat for
/ stray dog and attempted to become /
lnduly familiar with the oderiferious
ritter. The Carsonite stuffed gun
xadding in his nose and the drum
ner adorned his manly proportions

Fun and Feeling.

A writer on the monkeys of India
says they have game like the En-.
glish boys cock OF the dunghill OF
king of the castle, but instead OF
pushing each other from the top of a
knoll or dust heap, the castle is n
pendant branch OF tree.
The game is to keep place on the
bough, which swings with their
weight as with q cluster of fruit,
while the players struggle to dislodge
one another, each as he drops running
and climbing up again to begin anew.
This sport is kept up for an hour at
a time with keen enjoyment, and
when one is as nimble as monkey it
must be splendid fun.
Mr.. Robert Morley tells in Mature
Notes" a story for whose truth he
vouches, which seems to indicate that
monkeys may have very tender
feeling. -.
A friend of Mr.. Morley's, a native
Of India, was sitting in his garden,
when a loud chattering announced
the arrival of large party of monk
eyes, who forthwith proceeded to
make meal of his fruits. Fearing
the loss of his entire crop, he brought
his fowliDg-piece, and TO brighten
them away fired 1T off, as he thought,
over the heads of the chattering crew.
They all fled away, but he noticed
left behind upon bough what looked
like one fallen asleep, with its head
resting upon its arms. AS it did not
move, he sent servant up the tree,
who found that it was quite dead,
having been shot through the heart.
He had it brought down and buried
beneath the tree, and upon the NOR
row he saw sitting upon the little
mound the mate of the dead monkey.
1t remained there for several days
bewailing It's loss.

IL in harmony with the underskirt and
sleeves. In this costume the underskirt
and tight sleeves are OF ri h faille
franchise, and the bodice, overskirt, and
pulled sleeves of striped wool crepe.
The collar, tab, and belt are of fine gold
gimp. You Ia ay make this gown up in
dark and light heliotrope.
Nothing can be prettier than a
stamped foulard for young person, and
nothing more appropriate for summer
wear. My second illustration pictures
such gown. The skirt has three ruff
fles made OF bias stripes. The charming
little guipure figaro is outlined with rib
bon set off with double bow, as indica-
ted. 1t is exactly the same at the back.
There Is also ribbon belt. the sleeves
carrying out the same scheme of garni-
ture.
The Elton jacket has developed into
one OF the RACES of the moment, but
very few of these garments are Elton ex-
cept in name. The true Elton has small
close sleeves, and should invariably be
worn with sleeveless vest, for IL you
make its sleeves large enough to go
over an ordinary gown, you have no
longer an Eton coat. The true Eton
has tailor made turn-down collar and
lapels. Nor should il ever be made use
of as a wrap fo- mu0iing up purposes.
This is ridiculous. The correct summer
girl never makes such a mistake. Her
Elton coat is merely a separate bodic Q
which she wears over different vests
and matches her skirts, while the vests
run in different materials. The coat
must fit the figure snugly. To do this,
the vests should have long openings for
the straps to pass through.
My third illustration presents another
very prettily designed figured foulard,
with a deep lace ilounce and lace basque,

How TO Rcpa,r straw Hats.

1t is convenient to know how to
repair straw hats, as those of the
children of the household get sadly
battered in brim and crown. One
should always keep one old straw hat
of each of the ordinary colors-black
and brown and white-to supply ma
terials for repairing, and to this end
1t Is wise to avoid buying the fancy
straws. as the plain braids are much
more durable and useful. Black
thread No. 40 is used for all sewing
of straw, except the finest grades OF
hand-sewed hats, and the domestic
milliner may well follow the trade
rule. The straw should be wet or
dampened as it is sewed, as this will
prevent its breaking. When brim
is ragged. rip of the torn braid and,
taking a braid that matches, deftly
weave the ends together and sew
around the hats edge as many rows
as are wished. The brim can b.
made to turn down by stretching the
upper edges OF the braid tightly as IL
is sewed, or made to roll up by hold
ing the upper edge of the braid
loosely, the member guiding the re-
suits by her taste and judgment as
she sews. Torn crowns are replaced
in the same way. Braids that do not
match can be utilized wherever the
trimming will hide the patch, and
questionable low crowns may thus
be transformed into those of any
desired height. Bazaar.

AN accident occurred to cabman
in Chicago which seems so reasonable
and logical in its nature one wonders
that he docs not read of such mishaps
every day. Some portion of the har-
ness gave way and the shafts shot
into a perpendicular position. The
jehu, as natural consequence, found
himself precipitated upon the hard
pavement with painful emphasis.
This accident calls fresh attention to
q well-known fact-namely, that the
hanson cab is the most uncouth, I'M
comfortable, unreliable and ridicu-
lous nightmare Of a vehicle ever de-
vised by deprayed inventive genius.
1t is sort of balancing machine
with the horse at one end and the
driver at the other. When the driver
is a heavy man, one can imagine the
difficulty with which the poor animal
catches bis hoofs into the cobble-
stones as he pulls his load along. AS
for the uDending feature, there is NO
reason why passenger should not
consider such diversion possible at
any moment That cabs have not
hitherto turned upside down with
frequency can be attributed to nc
other reason than public good luck.

SINCE 1t is becoming more and
more the fashion that the account
between husband and wife in cases of
marital infidelity shall be settled
with sthe pistol, 1t would, perhaps,
be we'll to insist upon an accurate
knowledge Of the use OF firearms as
an essential condition Of marriage.
1t is certainly needlessly cruel to do
the thing up bunglingly when called
upon to shoot the betrayer of ones
honor. Take, for instance, the case
in Paris, where a lady of the first
social rank disposed of the woman
with whom the husband had been
guilty. The outraged wife fired five
shots from a revolver into the victim,
and even then did not succeed in
killing her on the spot. The wretchcd
creature fingered in agony for some
hours. Since society seems inclined
to regard the shooting as perfectly
proper under the circumstances, and
indeed as in "very good FORM" 1t GER
tainly should encourage the instruc-
ton necessary to the taking Of bet
ter aim In the first place. 1t may
be right to kill, but it is not con-
tended, so far as we have heard, that
1t is right to torture

FROM Montreal comes the informa-
tion that number OF Canadian CAPT
talists have seriously taken in hand
the project OF connecting the Georgian
Bay and Lake Ontario by means of a
ship railway. There was talk of this
before the Tehuantepec scheme re-
ceived its quietus by the death of
Captain Eads, but never until now rs
anything more than Q possibility. II
is now Stated that Z. L. Corthell, a
Chicago civil engineer who was asso-
ciatcd with Captain Eads in the
Tehuantcpec business, has Just made
a thorough inspection of the proposed
route from point near Collingwood
to another near Toronto, a distance
of about sixty-six miles, and pro-
nounced 1t entirely and easily practi-
cable. The plan is for roadbed Of
fifty feet with six steel tracks, and
the estimated cost is not more than
$l5, 500, 600 for road capable Of car
rying vessels up to 5000 tons burden.
A corporation called the Hurontario
Ship Railway Company has been Or
gained to carry this project through.
When that is done and some improve
ments in navigation Of channels con-
Meeting the lakes and Of the ST Law
renee River are made the traveller
can take ship in the port Of Chicago
and sail to any seaport on the globe,
slxty-six miles Of the distance over
land, without leaving his vessel.
This may be done before the century
is out Then look for the Tehuante-
pee ship railway, unless in the mean
time the Nicaragua canal comes in to
meet all the requirements of COM
merce In that quarter. Truly this is
century of wonders, and those who

Crepons are much affected by young
girls. They are usually made up of a

latter being invariably trimmed with
three rows of narrow ribbon, brought
