THE cow RIOTS.

The bull fight in the Amerissn Board somewhat obscured for American readers the COW riote In Rangoon. The story of one is as interesting az thst of the other, if not ss important. Fall accounts of the former have been published. Full accounts of the latter show that just before the commencement of the Mohurrum, at the feast of the Bakur-id, which means in Arabic "the COW feast,' the Mussulmaas had been acc astomed to kill COW or bull. Many of them resided in a street called Twenty ninth street, and had done so for years. Latterly Hindu had purchased land from Muasulman there and had built 6 Hindu temple next his house. Just be- fore the eve of the festival he collected some Hindu lsttisls or fighting men and petitioned the magistrate to restrain his Nussulrlan ne!ghbors from killing cows, alleging that if they did go there would be @ breach of the peace. The magistrate, without hearing any objections the Mus sulmans might urge, gave an ex parte or der restraining all Mussulmsns from kill ing COWS in that street. Under the Indian penal code the magistrate was entitled to pass such an order, but he appears to have misconceived the intention of the section. However, the Muesulmans became naturally irate at having re- ligious ceremonial exercised for many years so suddenly stopped, and meetings were held in which the obnoxious order was loudly denounced. Iu the meanwhile some of the younger members of the party purchased COW in an adjacent street Git may be assumed for the purposes of slauahter) and were leading it away when they were attacked by party of Hindus and an affray commenced. It was most unfortunate for the peace of the town that very large majority of the police were Hindus and Sikhs who vener' ate the COW, and they at once sided with their co religionists and commenced bat i tering the Mussulmans, who retalisted with
 brickb The Mussulmans begged the
 magistrate to send for British troops, bat
 he obs,inately determined to restore quiet
 with his Hindu police. This 1t was tha
 led directly to the subsequent riots and
 bloodshed.

A SOCIETY NOTE.

It is not often that we get interesting Society news from Hartford, Society thsre being much less thriving than New Ha- ven Society, ard not ss abundant in Court Journals and Paul and Polly Prys. But the Hartford Courant has heard some thing which bears the marks of truth, and which is of vital in terest to Society everywhere. This Is that it is going to bs good form this win ter to be poor. For once at least Society is to be honest, and use Its tact and its adaptsbility to some purpose. Hitherto the idea has been to be, or to seem to be, rich and comfortable. This idea has been carried out at great expense and no. little discomfort. The time having coae when it will be too expensive and too uncomfort- able for large part of Society to even pre- tend to be rich the truth is to be confessed and parsded.
 The idea Is a good one and a sensible one. Hard times are knocking with une- qual feot at every door, but they are knock ing, and their knocking must receive at tsntion. In giving 1t attention Society shows it's skill and its grscefulness. It docs not abdicste in favor of Poverty. It simply invites Poverty to sit with 1t on Its throne and bs its favored If not exactly Its welcome guest. Just what shape the fes- tivities in honor of Poverty will take re- mains to bs seen. Perhaps We shall have salt pork soirees, hasty-pudding at homes, chiccory or dandelion coffees, "yarb" teas, popcorn and cod fish balls. But whatever the programme, Society will carry it out with the game care and zest that marked it's msueuvers before Cordsge "busted" or Rubber lost its elasticity. And Society will come out all the brighter in the spring for drinking water instesd of champagne and living generally low instead of high.
 The only difficulty that we can see in the plan is that 1t will make it even narder than it is now to tell who Is really in 8, c'ety. That difficulty need not, how ever, be ooneidsred in regard to New Hs- ven Society, for almost every body here has already been mentioned in the Society Notes of the Court Journals. If poverty is really to be the thing 1t only re- mains for the New Haven Paul and Polly Pry's to complete their list by daily visits to the Town Agents office. It might cheer some of the poor creatures who haunt that mournful place to discover that by an unlooked-for turn of the social kaleidoscope they are at last In the ar engagement, and that the condition which they find so inconvenient is really good form. Their admission to New Haven Society wouldn't, to be sure, warm and clothe them, but 1t might help them to re- alizs that they are members of the human family

Stunning-street gowns are made of Hs- vans brown serge. One swell example has a very full skirted coat, bustoned tight over vest and shirt front and clasped by a silver belt. The skirt is full and plain,

 The woman who has, as 1t were, sacrificed everything for small waist, has now a chance to show that waist, and huge hips and big circumference below the belt will be disguised by the fullness of the skirts of the coat.
