 It Is certainly not the right thing to study hats when Patti is doing her per functory, middle-aged best in 'La Traviata," but I own I did neglect Violetta for space last evening to con- slider spring millinery. The impression that April headgear makes, as you see it in an audience, is one of very big and very soft, deep tinted flowers and of excessively long streamers. One woman in every three within the range of my opera glass had SO many ribbons and so much lace behind that she was obliged to take the accumulations round into her lap and set guard over them. In at least half 8 dozen nearby instances the floating scarfs would have reached the floor.

 One of the prettiest hats anywhere in sight was worn by young woman with dark blue eyes, a dainty pink in her cheeks and perfectly white curly hair. It was of silvery-gray crepe de chine, with a comical little conical crown of the same stuff braided and a loose pet aled, silky-gray poppy touched with pale yellow filling in all the front over the eyes. It had wide chiffon scarf at the back, caught together in two or three places with peoples and narrow ribbons.
 There was good deal of pink and black and good deal of yellow, but most, perhaps, of green. Ecru and pur- pie suited famously one tall and hand some matron with warm flush of color who sat in our immediate vicinity. Her

either microscopic and flat or micro scopic and tall. The tall crowns were few but pronounced; the flat crowns were many and made of jet in a ma jority of instances. Both tall crowns and fiat crowns had perpendicular bows never a great number of them-for trimming, at the extreme rear; and, wired apparently to the tallest bow, or else standing out from any suspicion of support, like New England spinster, was straight and sky-piercing flower stem with an immense jonquil or f1eur de lis stretching up from the top of it on tiptoe.
 With jet crowns went lace brims, Irish point ordinarily. With the jet went also, and not always harmonious ly, rhinestones. As, for example, in the nearest box sat pretty blonde in green. Her attendant swain discovered something the matter with glittering hairpin, and, obediently, she bent her head to have the trouble remedied. This means, of course, that she was taller than her knight, but in New York such disproportion is getting so congruity.

DR CYRUS EDISON, of New York, thinks that Americans go at too fast a pace, and they do this not only in busi- ness, but in pleasure. He thinks that the tendency to always be in 8 hurry in hurry to get rich, in 8 hurry to go from place to place at a great rate of speed whether on land or water, in a hurry to see all that is to be seen in the world and to learn all there is to know inevitably leads to hurried death and also to deterioration of the mental and physical well being of the people He therefore pleads that they should build up their minds and bodies by physical exercise and rest.

IT has often been stated that anything
 was possible in Washington, provided enough money was put up; and the pur- chase of site for the new Washington postoffice, by authority of the billion dollar congress, in the disreputable To- cality on the south side of Pennsylvania avenue, where the ground is only about two feet above ordinary high tide in the
 Potomac, and where the engineers are now driving forty foot piles in search of foundation firm enough to build upon, certainly fun nished a convincing argu- ment that the statement is in close prox- imity to the truth, and the high price paid for the ground makes It certain that the money spent by the real estate lobby in manipulating the deal, all came back with several hundred per cent in- crease. The same gang is laying the wires to unload another section of this swamp land, which it either gowns or holds options on, at a nominal price, on the government, as a site for a new patent office, and specifically providing that it shall be located on the south side of Pennsylvania avenue, and the two daily papers, both of which own avenue property, will help the lobby to get it through, and some of the senators and members who pushed the postoffice bill through will also help. Democratic senators and members should refuse to aid these spectators, and they doubtless will, when the real status of the matter is brought to their attentIon-they have been misled by Washington newspapers,

DISPATCHES from St Petersburg bring word that the proceeds of the New York concert for ths benefit of the Rus sian famine sufferers has been received and are being used in such manner as United States Minister Smith directs. This fund amounted to 13,000 roubles The original calculation was that little less than eight roubles would be suffi cient to save one life and provide food until a new crop. Owing to the lapse oi time since this estimate was made the amount necessary could be reduced tc six roubles or less. The proceeds of the New York concert would thus suffice for the saving of some 2,OO0 lives.

One theory OF the construction Of an
enormous river and harbor bill, is that
certain members of both political parties
want to force President Harrison to
veto il. They proceed on the SUPPOSE
ton that such an act would make him
unpopular. We doubt very much il a
veto would have that effect. The bill is
too large and it is full Of jobs. Mr..
Harrison would gain in popularity in
many quarters by disappearing it. This
brings to mind the old and wise sug-
gestion Of Gen. Grant that the presi-
dent should have power to veto single
items in appropriation bills without kill
ing the measures entire. Many years
ago Gov. Hoffman, of New York, secured
the adoption of a provision in the con-
stitution of that state which allowed the
governor to veto individual items in
appropriation bills. The effect was
most wholesome. The jobbers could no
longer make themselves secure by tack
ing their schemes onto necessary bills
where they could not be got at. The
governor was able to block them with
out causing the defeat Of other legisla-
ton. Millions of dollars were thus
saved annually to the tax payers Of the
state and that is why the state treasury
is to-day in a sound and solvent con-
dition, and state taxes are a mere trit1e.

A Painful Accident to u Son of Ex-Nlayor
Kleinschmidt
Eugene Kleinschmidt, son of ex-Mayor
Kleinschmidt, met with a serious accident
yesterday while riding ont Broadway. He
was riding a very fiery horse belonging to
his brother Arthur, and was going out
Broadway, following tho Lenox car. On
the car were his father, the ex-msyor. and
his brother Arthur. who were watching the
boy urging the animal to overtake the
motor. just before the car was about to
turn from Broadway alongside the park
the horse and rider caught up. Eugene
horse kept shyinR and finally made a break
for the sidewalk. The boy stuck to the
horse, very gamely trying to make him
keep the track. The horse, however,
jumped the board walk and began plunging
and rearing around. Young Kleinschmidt,
after several Jumps, lost his seat and at the
walk. E1-Msvos K~lein9sohmidt, Conn.

jumped from the car and ran to the injured

placed in the buggy of Walter Bradshaw,
which happened to be near, n driven ia
his home. only a short distance away, His
mot1er ana 6lsser were on the pOrtlco walt
ing for the ex-mayor and his ons to come
to lunch. and saw the accident from that
point. DR.. G. B. Miller was called. He
found the boy suffering from a terribly Out
bruised face and a severe hurt to his hip.
Across the forehead, just over the eyes,. was
an ugly cash, and the eyelid of the left eye
was cut in half. Fortunately the ball OF
the eye does not seem to be injured. His
mouth was also cut and swollen, and hit
nose badly Scared The injury to his hiI
seems to pain him worst Of all. Dr.. Miller

be attended by every democratic voter;
careless work at the beginning will mean
bad work all the way through. This is

EASTERN prejudice against the pro-
posed railroad TO Cooke City, because II
would desecrate Yellowstone park, has
been overcome by the segregation bill
us passed by the senate. This bill re-
stores to Montana the corner OF the
park through which it is proposed to
build the railroad, and thus makes the
Cooke City mining region free to all
railroad enterprises. The house should
not bother longer with the Mineral rail
way scheme, which wants u monopoly
from congress. Cut off the corner OF

there first, whoever chooses to build it.
