The Improved EIan.


 He would be supplied with four arms, two in front, two bshind. The fret two should be long to allow for reaching vio- tusls at a lunch counter If within sight The rear arms should be shorter and Adsp- ted to carrying home all the purchases made in the wife's interest; also, to use when the front srms grow weary at night psrsding an infant. His brains should be nicely advised, so that If he becomes too much absorbed In business or politics or the man around the corner the excess of weight on one side would cause him to droop his head like weeping willow. This valuable acquisition would enable his wife to determine his occupation and csAse tc be jealous when no cause exists. A novel attachment would be a daily memorandum blank space, which would receive the i'm. presion of his wife's last list of errandr thereby avoiding the mailing of letters in coat pockets or the catastrophe of mol sending up some coal. Another good use would be to enable helpless man to fud a shirt or collar button without calling | his wife in tones of thunder, after re- ducing his bureau drawer to chaotic con | fusion. A combination attachment would enable the man to cast up accounts with one front arm and write love letter-to his wife-with one rear arm, in summer, leaving him two arms wherewith to fan himself, chase mosquitoes, etc. His teeth | should he minus nerves and not breakable | his back of structure that could not ache He should have pair of wings to use when he wished to catch his train, and the fac. ulty of being invisible ct times when hs would like, as at present, to sink through the floor. Two sets of eyes, front and rear no external ears, a glass door into hi stomach, came over lungs, no liver ol spleen, should be his outfit.

CROSSWIS5.RInERx.

California has glorious climate, and 1t also has some glorious women. They are free and independent. Some of them in San Francisco, Alameda and Oakland are showing their freedom snd independence by locating their legs on horses in tho way men do. They call it riding crosswise, which Is @ pretty good name for 1t. In order to ride crosswlse they have to have clothes that will allow them to so ride, and we feel sure that women in this region will like to know some of the details of the per formance, which bids fair to spread and become national. The crosswise rider wears tights, any sort of shoe, and cloth gaiters to the knee. Over the tights is worn divided skirt, full enough to hang gracefully, and of the same cloth and ma terial as the outside garment. This ekirt is walking length. With this skirt is worn blouse -waiet-India silk in summer and cloth in winter Then comes the outside garment. This Is simply an ulster of con- ventional cut and appearance In material 1, varies from chevlot or serge to the finest | pE0h0clotu. It may po hooo Sioec-Atbiue or half-ftting, according to the taste ant figure, although the closs- fitting ulste gives the trimmest appearance. The ul sters are all double-breasted to poin about six inches below the waist. Her the buttons go from the outside to the in side of the garment. The buttons an button-holes are concealed by flap. | the back the ulster is cut with little full ness and is open all the way up the bach Here, also, arc buttons and button-holei When walking, the ulster is closed b means of these two rows of hidden bu
 tons, and as it is precisely of walkin length the rider can walk any distance an be in correct street dress. The ulsters al
 very pretty. Some of them have sing
 cape, others have triple military cap' lined with silk. When on the horse u

CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE.
 The Register the other day authoritative ly announced that the chairman of the Republican State committee Is the man who got the fat fee from the Board of Education for Legislative work" at Hart ford It will be remembered, and of course without any connection with the idea of fees, that the same gentleman off ciated as master of ceremonies at the meet ing of those who came together the other evening to see the old members of the Board of Education renominate them selves and to hear them recount and praise their own mighty works. He has been conspicuous in the short and decisive campaign conducted in their behalf, and his newspaper organ has done its bss: to help him and hurt some of its other own CTS. It may also be remarked that this in teresting situation has included what seems to bs strange lack of loyalty to old and tried friends on the part of .he gentleman, who was as successful iR his great school campaign as he was in bis great political campaign.
 We congratulate him. We also con- graduate those who have found in him such loyal and efficient helper.

cerkserew curls, In an almost straight line across the ears. This makes the front set of curls lie on the cheek almost. Two nt- tie ones stand guard each side of the part and the hair waves from the part before from temple to temple is emphasized, and yet the space allowed for the forehead to actually show Is reduced to hardly more than that filled by the eyes. An effect of very large eyes is produced.
 If this way of dressing your crowning glory does not suit you, there are many other equally stylish methods, and three pretty ones are shown herewith. In the upper and central one the hair Is drawn up in Pompsdour fashion over a wire cushion, and Is arranged in @ loose soft coil In the back. At the temples there are few stray curls, as 1t is almost too trying for the majority of faces to brush the hair entirely of the forehead. A fllet of jet Is worn having ribbon bow In the center and two pert, upright loops with a jet buckle. Below at the left is another ex- ample. Here the hair Is waved and drawn to the crown of the head, where 1t is loosely coiled and the ends punched in tiny curls. This style is particularly be- coming to regular features
 The last of the trio will require long thick hair, which is waved and arranged In a soft knot in the nape of the neck: while the forehead is framed by s short, fluffy bang. All four msthods described are pretty, but every woman must select the one best suited to herself

WHAT TIT MEANH.

There need be no doubt about the real meaning of the verdict given by the voters of New Haven yesterday. The interest was general, the vote was big one, and 1t was not unduly influenced. The great majority for the new ticket plainly shows that the people are tired of the way busi
 nees has and has not been done by the Board of Education. The circular sent to them with the names on it of some of our distinguished citizens whose names are usually to be found on such circulars didn't impress them. They didn't zee the momentous importance of allowing the same men who have mismana red things to keep on mismanaging them. They didn't see the vital necessity of having the same man chief legislator and treasurer of the Board. They didn't see the necessity of pinning their faith to two men as the only ones capable of spending money and increasing the taxes. They didn't like the treatment of MT. Curtiss. They didn't like the illegal payment of fees to lobbyists or | a lobbyist. They didn't like the self-per- petuating feature of the old ticket. They | didn't like the uncommon anxiety for re- election displayed by the old members. | They couldn't see why a little, thankless, unproftable office was worth making such | an open and eager grab for. And they | didn't relish the idea that there were men of such responsibility and standing on the old ticket that they were indispensable to the district. This, of course, is all wrong, but it is in human nature. Some people are 80 mean that they won't go to church because those who do go are so good
 l The new members have a good deal to learn and good deal of responsibility to bear. But we have no doubt that they will be found equa! to their duties. We have no fear that they will make any worse work with the High School and the Manual Training School than the old mem bers have, and we think they will occasion ally do something without playing pro tracted series of games of chess before hand. They have fine opportunity. The public has been solemnly assured by the old members ard their friends, including the distinguished and customary signers of
 the usual circular, that nobody but the old
 members will be able to do educational
 business as it ought to be done. We shall
 be very much surprised if tho new mem
 bers don't show more vim, skill, decision
 and efficiency than the old members have
 shown. They can't very well show less

From the New York Hersldl
 A certain New York millionaire club man, famous for his dinners and his say ings, Is just now relating 8 good story against himself. He has recently returned from & years absence abroad, and has nat urslly forgotten few names, placing those as rule, on the wrong person, so that his attempts at hearty recognition have been somewhat dangerous, yet amusing.
 He was going down Fifth avenue the oth- CT day, when he caught sight of @ figure which in the distance he seemed to recall. Increasing his somewhat measured walk he presently passed the man and then retrsced his steps.
 A glance at his face wss sufficient. He kuew him and recollected as he advanced toward him cozy little dinner by the win dow in the club dining room, where he had listened so attentively to the stories with which the man now before him had oe- luged the conversation
 The stranger looked up ag, "Well, my dear fellow, I'm glad to zee you," tell up- on hie cara.
 A look of keen bumor lighted up his eyes as he clasped, rather reluctant, the spesk- er's extended hand.
 "You are very kind" he murmured; 'very kind, sir" "Why, what nonsense. Here. I'm just going to lunch at Delmonico's. You must come with me and tell me some more stor- les"
 "Storiesl What stor!esi" gasped his old friend.

and summer resorts. A few days ago s thin. anticipated specimen of the granger species arrived at Milan, Tenn, on the train from the south and began making inquiries about rates. He was instantly surrounded by the Illinois Central agent and the following conversation ensued:
 "Going north or east, sirFn
 "Yes, north, was the reply.
 'AhI Step right up to the ticket win dow. Great through line, sir. Land you in Chicago six hours ahead of all compsti- tors. Finest sleeping and dining oArs in the world. Butter on two plates. Chick en and good bread and molasses all over the table. Come right in, sir"

 ''Goin' to Angelina"
 Instantly maps were produced. and fol ten minutes two pairs of eyes inspected them closely. Then they looked al each other and both asked one question:

 The railroad maps disappeared, likewise the agents, while the countrymAn boarded a one-horse wagon for Angelina.

PaUL's PROCLAMATION.

That Mr.. Paul Neumann should
write a letter to the Provisional
government for a political purpose
IS not at all strange, but that he
should expect his little political
dodge to have any weight with the
public is altogether strange
stranger than truth and fiction
have been ever yet in the annals
Of Hawaiian politics. Personally
Mr.. Neumann is a popular citizen,
as far as transient social popular
ity goes. He is hail fellow, well
met with many people ! but when
it comes to politics--after Mr..
Neumann's Hawaiian record-his
letter to the Provisional govern
ment gives the intelligent public
that terrible tired feeling" for
which there is no medical remedy
in the royalist pharmacoppia.

WISE AND OTHERWISE.

Paul Neumann's open letter to
President Dole does not seem to
have had the expected effect. The
Bulletin apologies for the letter in
a sort of half-hearted way, in which
it declares Mr.. Neumann's inten-
tons were of the best and that he
"meant in all kindness to save the
personalities of President Dole and
his some highly-respected coadju-
tors from the humiliating conse-
quences" alleged to be awaiting the
establishment of good, economical
government in Hawaii. A valued
correspondent" has a somewhat
livelier appreciation of the absurd
ity of Mr.. Neumann's letter, and
does not hesitate to call the grand
old fee-taker political chump.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1893-07-18

The point raised by the eloquent
fee-taker that the annexation cause
is based upon false reports for
warded to the Harrison admins
tration, seems to be somewhat of
an afterthought, when viewed in
the light of that ex-royal power Of
attorney which Mr.. Neumann
carried to Washington in his
pocket, and denied to the
press of the United States that
he had. When Mr.. Neumann as
sumes to speak for the American
people he places himself in posi-
ton quite as false and untenable
as when he uses the plural eve"
to represent the Hawaiian people
in making demands of the Provis-
ional government. Mr.. Neumann
simply represents himself and his
political and royalist clients, but
nobody else. As far as the politi-
cal future of Hawaii is concerned,
neither Mr.. Neumann nor his
friends viii be in it in any event,
until they get out of bad political
company. The people are fully de-
termined that hereafter good gov
eminent Of some form shall prevail
here.
