practlced Indeed, the spirit of the oc-
casion may be said to comprise an object
lesson on the success with which the
bicycle has established itself as a substi-
tute for the horse. Many features will
suggest the horse show of few weeks
since, If only by contrast.
The mechanical department is unusu-
ally well equipped The manufacture
of a bicycle from pedal to spoke will be
shown in its various stages. Some OF the
most skilled workmen In the trade will be
seen practioing their dexterity. The
stock In sight will embody a higher Pc
cuniary outlay than has ever been made
for such an occasion.
The attendance promises to DO quite
large, The personnel is practically list
of all the persons who have achieved
eminence, professionally or as amateurs,
in connection with the wheel. The trade
committee comprises L. H. Johnson,
chairman; j. S. Bretz, e. d. Loane, Jr.,
@. A. Persons and A. o. Very. The
clubs represented include the Philadel-
phia, the county organizations as far west
as California and the American wheel
men.
The only source of friction connected
with the event had reference to the place
for holding the show. Philadelphia con-
sidered herself entitled to the honor and
battled for it with all the strength of con-
viction. However, the matter was salts
factorily arranged and now there is moth
ing to mar the general success of the
coming display. 1t will be the most i'm
portant event in the history of the bicycle
as machine that has taken place
since Baron Won Drais gave his celefier

player without is then called in and
one of the company takes him by the
hand, at the same time thinking in
tensely of the thing agreed upon. He
must not move unless the first player
moves. The player who went out must
keep his mind quiet, trying to think of
nothing in particular, moving in any
direction he feels impelIed to move and
doing whatever he feels impelled to do.
The player will very often do the very
thing he was required by the company to
do
There is no general agreement as to
why this should be the case. 1t is argued
by some that the players mind is really
influenced by that ,of the one who holds
his hand. Others maintain that the sue
cess of the experiment Is usually the re-
suit of chance. Again it is alleged that
the player who has his mind bent upon
the act in question thinks of it so intently
that he cannot help showing the other, by
unconscious muscular movements, what
is to be done. 1t is generally found that
certain players succeed better when they
are leaders, and others when they are
led. Instead of merely taking hands. the
player who goes out often holds the back
OF the others hand against his forehead
Sometimes the one who goes cut holds no
ones hand at ali but the entire company
think very earnestly of what they have
agreed he shall do.
So the round of fun is run. It rarely
happens that Christmas games are well
under way without all sorts of tricks and
plays arising out of them or being sug-
gested thereby. The real difficulty
usually lies in making beginning.

woman wore a black velvet mantle Of
some description and it was invariably
trimmed with insertions of rich lace In
my opinion it Wed very successfully with
an ermine cape or two that was scattered
in between that array of black velvet and
seal and brocade. The handsomest had
short ruffles of velvet, with a lace inser-
ton put OF an inch or two inside the edge;
and had lace bands running down the
front and at the bottom of the cape.
There was but little edging One triple
ermine cape was truly magnifcently
lined with pure white, and made of three
very short capes, the uppermost scarcely
more than a ruff1e. Another triple beauty
was of fine white cloth, each cape edged
with ermine. Lace was introduced very
prettily in connection with a sable boa,
that was tied in front with long loose
bow of deep yellow point.
There were some wonderful gowns there
that night, also. A heavily corded gray
silk had skirt that was divided in four
by cordings of scarlet velvet that ran
round it at equal distances. The bodice
was not visible, but the beauty of the
scarlet cape compensated for its conceal
ment. The cape was short, Just to the
waist, and a single one. It was almost
hidden beneath the double ruf11e of deep
lace that fell over the back; in front the
lace was brought over the shoulders and
down into point at the waist. The lace
was quite fiat giving a soft, quaint appear
ance te the cape.
A couple of overskirt effects were worth
noting. A brilliant red cloth sable edged,
fell over black. Only few inches OF
the black were visible, and these were
closely embroidered with bright copper
shades.
An all black satin had a double skirt,
the INNER inst q tTifla lonpar than the
lower, both edged with SEAL At the back
two long black satin tabs f1oated grace
fully about as their wearer moved, dis
playing a lining of pale blue satin, that
matched the tiny turquoise toque she
wore. EVA A. SCHUBERT.

evince an unwillingness to "play,n let

one can witness the hilarity and down
right fun the following games afford
without longing to participate in them.

some one who is not playing takes away
one chair from the end of the line. The
music stops suddenly and all who
can do so sit down. OF course, one
player is left standing as
one chair has been taken away. and that
player is out of the game. The music be-
gins again and the game goes on, new

only one player is left. He has then got

are: ~ That no one must touch a chair

In Memoriam.

Eugene, the sweet little son Of DR.. and
Mrs. b. A. hattison, fell asleep in the
arms Of Jesus at Mccormick, S. c., on
Saturday morning, May 18th, 1893, age
one year and twenty days.
The angel of death came and the sun
beam of this bright and joyous home was
gone. The bud just unfolding on earth
was nipped to blossom in Heaven, and
leaves only its fragrance here. :.
The innocent prattle, sweet smiles and
beautiful little face will no longer be en-
joyed. Oh, how sad to part with such a
bright little angel! but he was too pure
and good to stay here, 30 our Heavenly
Father took him to his home in Heaven,
where all is bliss and love. Therefore
we must humbly submit to the will OF
Him who knoweth best.
ONE WHO LOVED HIM DEARLY.
