sets an example which others are
bound to follow, and to the educational

very near.
1t is interesting and comforting to
know that no woman now living can be
held accountable for the long-train
abomination. This pleasing fashion
was introduced into England nearly
five hundred years ago by Anne, queen
of Richard Ii. It was the same enter
prSing lady who introduced the enor-
nous head gear of which our theater
hOnnetS are the closest descendants.
Anne, who seemed to have thirst for
experiments, went even further than
this. She introduced the side-sadde for
woman horsemanship and abolished the
cavalier style OF riding then in vogue.
At the time of Gen. BOulanger's
tragic death some reference was made

with and nursing her sick mother. She

Coghlan at Mrs. SommerS' SEMINARY
for Young Ladies'" in Dublin, Ireland.
Now, that duels are the topic of the
day. it IS more or less Interesting
to recall this one. Rose was the
aggressive party then as now, and the
fight, she pleasantly announced, was
to be to the death. The meeting took
place at in the evening. There were
two seconds, and the principals appro-

Foils were used. and before the affray
ended Miss Coghlan had received Sc

this she pierced her antagonists arm

shrieked at all this gore, and the teach
ers hurried to the scene. The sequel
is painful. Miss Coghlan was sent home
in disgrace, and her colleagues were
given lecture which served as guide
