The races ~ advertised some two
weeks since were duly presented at Riv-
erslde Park July 9Th. As there was no
excitement In the village to attract VS.
itors, IL Was evident at an early hour
that a large number OF people would
attend the park before the day Was over.
Long before the time for the races, peo-
pie were crowding on the grand stand or
leaning on the fence around the track.
The course Was In excellent condition,
and those Who took notice Of this fact
truthfully predicted an exciting race.

During the Fall Season.

what the Women of style Are Wearing
During the Fall Season.
Following the English fashion straw
hats will be worn until holidays Some
of the newest of these have the brims
faced with fancy braid in contrasting
color one specially handsome model
being of black Milan with facing of
lace braid in the natural color of straw.
The trimming is of loops of the braid
glossy wings and aigrettes in black.
While round waists are still fashion
able, there are many basque bodices of
various styles. One model is shown
with no black seams, but this is desira-
BILE only as a novelty, as the effect is
by no means pleasing, save in excep-
tional cases. The style and figure must
match to be harmonious.
Enormous quantities of narrow vel
vet ribbon are used for dress trimmings.
Row upon row of this material is seen
on cloth and other wool fabric. A
white broadcloth has the lower part of
the skirt almost covered with velvet
ribbon, set on in an open arabesque
pattern.
French lace and various imitation
laces are much liked. Old-time black
laces of various sorts are being hunted
up among the family heirlooms. Black
Chantilly, guipure and Brussels lace
are the height of fashion. The finer
and older, the more the lace is approved.
A fabric that may be described az
moire velvet is one of the new impor-
tations. The smooth surface of the
pile is slightly stamped to produce this
effect, which is extremely pretty, MAX
ing the surface into fine watered lines,
very dressy and elegant.
Black lace is used in enormous guam
titles Ruchings collarettes, plaitings,
shoulder ruffles bertha fiounces. wide
or narrow bretelles, and indeed, every
imaginable way of disSosing this ma
terial seems to be approved.
The fancy for changeables is running
riot. 1t has reached all classes of dress
goods, even mohairs and all grades of
suitings.-N. y. Ledger.

When done, lay on hot platter, sea-
son with salt and pepper, butter gener-
ously, turn hot plate over them and
let them stand five minutes before
serving. Venison should never be
roasted unless fat The shoulder is a
roasting piece and does not need paper
and paste. 1t should always be served
on hot plates, as it chills quickly. It
is best perfectly fresh, but in cold
cold weather it can be kept some time
by washing with milk and water and
drying perfectly; then rubbing every
part with we'll powdered and mixed
ginger and pepper.

WILD CAMELS.
An Almost Incredible Story Which Comes
from Spain.


An Almost Incredible Story which Comes
from Spain.
Wild camels in the strict sense of the
term, camels whose ancestors were
never domesticated, aye entirely un-
known. Such animals, SO far as natu-
ralists are aware, have not been in ex-
istence within historic times. 1t ap-
pears however, greatly to the surprise
of the world in general, that camels
have been living and breeding in a wild
state in southern Spain for about sixty
years.
When Mr.. Chapman, one of the au-
thors of "Wild SPAIN" was exploring
the marismas or marsh lands of Anda-
lusia in 1888, he noticed far away on
the plain two large animals evidently
watching him. He approached them
with all possible caution, but while he
was still quarter of a mile away they
took alarm, wheeled about and made
off.
AS they turned, Mr.. Chapman saw
for the first time what they were
camels. He was astonished, but there
could be no mistake, for, as he says, "a
camel is like nothing else in creation. J"
In a communication to the Ibis he
mentioned what he had seen, and one
of the editors of the magazine, Mr..
Howard Saunders, an eminent ornithol-
ogist, appended foot-note to the effect
that he himself had seen small herd
of such camels in the same region in
1868, but had never mentioned the cir
cumstance in print on account of the
incredulity with which the statement
was certain to be received.
The wonder of the thing is increased
by the nature of the marismas, which
are subject to inundation for six
months of the year, and would seem
to be as ill-adapted as possible to the
wants of an animal which is always
associated with arid sandy deserts
In point of fact Mr.. Chapman's state
ment, supported as it was by the testi-
mony of Mr.. Saunders did not escape
disbelief and measure of ridicule. 1t
seems to have been abundantly con-
firmed however. Mr.. Chapman himself
has seen the camels since on several
occasions
In January, 1888, he saw herd of
nineteen, of various sizes, knee-deep in
the water of the marsh.
Our whole shooting -party-includ-
ing seven or eight Englishmen-en-
joyed the sight, the herd remaining in
sight for the half-hour we spenG at
lunch on the edge of the marisma.
With powerful field-glasses we brought
the camels close up, and watched them
putting their heads down as though
grazing on the grasses beneath the
surface"
The camels appear to have been
brought from the Canary Islands in
1929, and to have run wild not many
years afterward. Youth's Companion.
