envied by the ordinary summer girl who
vegetables in a fifteen dollar week hotel
somewhere in Jersey or on Long Island.
It is question now which is the most
'up to date the horse racing girl or the
yachting girl. They are running a close
race for first place. Any girl can wear a
yachting cap, a REFER and white duck
shirt and look real nautical, thanks 10 the
sunburn gathered by day on Coney Island
beach or few afternoons in the Park, but
it takes real experience to talk about the
merits of famous racers and show a pocket
full of losing pool tickets. am inclined to
think the horse racing girl is usually
genuine. while the yachting girl is usually
a fraud.
The race track girl has the best Of it as
far as costume goes, too, fo- she is not tied
down to the narrow limitations which
yachting prescribes. She can let her fancy
run riotously free in the way of striking
effects, and she usually does. Go to Nom
mouth if you would see what effective
raiment an ingenious and courageous girl
and good dressmaker can produce. There
is delightful air of bravado in the style of
all the dresses the pretty girls there wear
which says as plainly as could words
This is awfully bad taste, and very loud,
but it's worn because it's race track dress,
and so it's all right"

BOGUS MERCHANTS.
Necessity of q Law to Punish People Who
Rob Farmers.

Necessity OF . Law to Punish People Who
Rob Farmers.
Inspector Hollinberger of the detective corps
has made up his mind to secure a law for the
punishment Of the bogus commission merchants
who are engaged, so it is charged, in robbing
farmers in all parts of the country OF large
quantities Of produce, and with that end in
view he held consultation with District
Attorney Birney this week and requested
that official to draw up bill for prese ntation
to Congress early in the session. The prose-
cutor promised to do what he could in the
matter. Complaints have been received in
large numbers recently, and the inspector is
tired of having to answer that there is no law
here under which these parties can be prose-
cuted.
The scheme of these men is to quote prices
in advance of the regular market prices and
give references. In that way large cargoes Of
various sorts Of produce are shipped TO them,
and all they have to do is to pay the freight
In many instances the parties SO victimized live
SO far away that they will not come here TO
prosecute, while some Of the near victims some
times get their money by appearing and max
ing sworn complaints

THE CASE OF MIR. NoRpHoFr

interest In the Rumor That Mr.. Blourt
Has Been Rebuked.
Considerable interest is taken in this citv in
the report telegraphed from Honolulu bv wav
OF San Francisco that Secretary Gresham has
rebuked Minister Blount for his action in offer.
ing protection to Mr.. Nordhoff, correspondent Of
New York Herald, against steps taken by the
Hawaiian government for legal redress for the
alleged bes against it's officials and citizenscon-
tanned in his letters to the Herald. II ia
asserted that Minister Blount counselled him 70
ignore the governor of the Hawaiian court.
and assured him Of the full protection of the
United States government.
The latest reports are to the effect that the
Secretary of State has informed Mr. Blount
that he exceeded his authority in this matter
and that he had apparently acted under a mis-
conception of Mr.. Nordhoff's right to protec-
ton.
THE CUTTING CASE.
The Cutting case, which has been referred to
in this connection. is different from that of Mr..
Nordhoff, in that his attacks on the
as published in the United States,
while Mr.. Nordnoff's animadversions against
the provisional government OF Hawaii were
written in that country and forwarded to the
United States for publication. In both cases
the papers containing the alleged hbels were
circulated in the foreign country.
The Secretary of State refused TO surrender
Mr.. Cutting to the Mexican authorities for trial,
on the ground that the offence alleged to have
been committed by him took place entirely In
United States territory.
The Honolulu dispatch says that Mr.. Nord-
hof had been turned over to the Hawaiian au-
thorities. This may be so, but he was not re-
strained of his liberty, for he arrived at San
Francisco on the steamer from Honolulu yes
terday.
1t is impossible in the absence of Secretary
Gresham, Private Secretary Lands and As
sistant Secretary Adee to get definite informa-
ton in regard to the alleged rebuke of Mr..
Blount.
