A curious result of the religious riots
in Bombay has been the exposure of
the hollowness of the plea that has
been pat forth for the crow as scav-
enger. Lazy governments in the east
have been wont to excuse their sani-
tary shortcomings on the ground that
"the crow, the pariah dog and the
kite may be relied upon to clear away
the offal in the streets, but the smells
of Constantinople and Smyrna have
not be en- observed to be much the less
because the dogs eat of the offal
thrown from the houses, nor has Jeru-
salem or Cairo been found to be any
sweeter from the presence of the mon
grels who destroy the repose of visit
ors. In like manner the Bombay crow
has failed to justify his ancient reputa-
ton. During the Bombay riots, when
the operations of the city scavengers
were brought to standstill, dead yer.

All kind of capcs made of all manner
of material will be worn this fall.
Those for drcssy occasions grow con-
stantly shorter, but for everyday street
wear they arc cut full and flowing,
falling low over the hips in circular
form. Some of the newest capcs are
rather close fitting and on all the collar
seems to be the feature.
Fur capcs which are already in the
market are very full with beautifully
! cut collars about the shoulders. AL
that l have seen are of good length,
falling well over the waist. and look
far more comfortable than the short
ones SO much affected few seasons
ago.
Large cloaks will be in vogue for the
winter. Thoy are made in soft wool
en- material lined with shot silk.
Jackets are closely rivaling capes In
popularity this season. The most
striking feature in this garment is tho
full flaring skirt. The collar is more
in evidence than ever before. Some
drop with n dcmure air, others stand
up in a manner truly astonishing.
Some of the newest ones are trimmed
in big buttons and tho i-orc dressy
ones are deliberately embroidered in
silk.
The jacket represented in the picture
is well worth describing. 1t is charm.
ingly different from any l have seen
and is quite suitable to the season.
1t is made of green cloth, tight fitting,
with drapcd revcr of black satin on
one side. The large sleeves are of
satin. and the neck is finished with a
satin ruiz
| The becoming neck ruches and boas
arc more popular than ever, and there
| is absolutely no restriction regarding
the material with which they are made.
Fur and feather boas are more elegant,
but those of ribbon are very chic. A

| is much used, as it does not fall away
from the neck as those OF lace are apt
to do. The newest arc laid in bog

A Proceodi rhai i'ail Of Action and
Excitement.

Urci,cmrnt.
A loose. sandy spot is chosen for tho
breaking az tho bronco. the raine ny
which tho wild horses Of California and
Arizona are known. Squealing. strug-
glinr. biting, licking, bucking, rolling
in the dust and double back somer-
sault-thcsc are parts Of the grand per-
fornance whcnevor bronco is broken
10 the saddle. Capt. Bomke describes
10 his book, con The Border with Crook, y
The fun and excitement associated with
brcalling "broncos' by n troop OF
United States cavalry.
The animal was first thrown, blind
folded. and then the bride and saddle
were put on, the latter girthcd so tight
ly that tho horses eyes started from
their sockets. Then, armed with pair
Of spurs of the diameter OF a s0ap.plate
and mesquite club big enough to fell
an OK, tho Mexican "vaquero" got into
the saddle, the blinds, were cast off, and
the circus began.
There would be one moment OF doubt
as to what the "bronco" was going to
do; now aud then it might seem for a
few seconds as II n really n,ild-man-
hkNth iAlu nNtl nllll W lnt llbNt
by some mistake OF the quartermhstor's
department. But this doubt never last
ed very long. The genuine "bronco"
can always be lmown from the spurious
one by the,fact that when he makes up
his mind to buck" he sets out upon
his work without delay, and with vim
that means business.
II there were many horses arriving In
a bunch There would be lots of fun.
The men would mount and amid the
encouraging comments of the lockers
on would begin the task of subjuga-
ton.
Tho bronco nearly always looked
around and up at bis rider with an ex-
preston that was beniguant; then he
would roach his back, get his four feet
punched together, and await develop
ments. II the rider foolishly listened
TO the suggestions OF his critics. he
would always mistake this temporary
paroxysm Of docility for fear or lack Of
spirit,
'Arnah, thin, shticls yer lphurs int
him, n iTiarty,' some foolish bystauder
would call out. No sooner did the rider
heed this evil advice and strike the
! hroncols tanks with his roWels than
the air would be filed with revolving
mass of manc and tail and flying hoofs,
while the lrishman would shoot like a
meteor into the sand and pillow Il up
With his chin.
