larger than an ordinary handkerchief,
but more often it fell over the dress,
and not seldom to the feet. This style
was restricted to DANES of high rank
The lower classes used a cloth cap,
with pieces sticking ont on each side
that resembled the ears of an ape.
Addison tells US, in his Spectator, how,
when Thomas Connecte launched his
invectives against it from the sacred
pulpit, the women made great bon
fire of them all-but no sooner was
he gone than, like snails, they shot
out their horns when the danger was
over.
Katherine Of Aragon covered her
hair with a soft drspery, fastening it
TO diamond frame that pointed over
her forehead, and was carried down
each side of the face. Queen Mary ''wore
a curl that was so massive and ponder
Gus with gold and jewels that she was
fain to bear up her head with her
hand"
1t was not much later thai the women
adopted a wagon" headdress, which
seemed most grotsque of all 1t was
made of gold threads, drawn by six
dapple grays of blown glass, with
coachman, position and gentlemen
within. OF course only a lady of quality
could bear such headdress with be-
coming gravity. In moments of haste
or excitement, her dignity must have
been difficult to maintain, for even the
most stolid Of waiting maids would not
be insensible to the ridiculous attitude
of a mistress who exclaimed, as poem
of that period has it:
"Nelly-where is the creature fedt
Put my post-chaise upon my head"
Some high danes preferred sailing
TO rolling with swift wheels along
smooth paths, and these evolved from
their couture a wonderful ship, with
flags flying and sails set
After such absurdities, the women Of
to-day may fairly congratulate them
selves upon their moderation. And yet
it takes little more than a breath to
send them all flying in one direction.
a beautiful actress viii arrange curl

When Emma Eames. as Elsa, wears
those wonderful braids, the whole
world Of women begins 10 plsit and
coil. When Melba drops her hair in
soft waves, in Carmen, all the irons
that were laid away are again brought
forth, 70 manufacture the soft ringlsts.
When Sibvl Sanderson moves majestic

Greek couture, all the world puts a
hllet in its hair; and when Bernhard
shakes out her locks IN her CleOpatran
moods. there il nothing 70 be done but
regret that society viii not permit the
lOose-falling tresses.
But womankind gets this benefit, a.
least, from all her impetuosity-that
she need 10 longer follow any particu-

society women, indeed, pay scant cour-

thought possible for Gov. Flower to

Unexpected and unprecedented fac

1892 to puzzle the politicians and per-
plex tbs party prophets, but since No
vember OF that year affairs have set

New York is once more the great bat

publican parties.
It looked for time as though popu-
lism had so asserted itself in the west
that it could lay claim to a dominant,
even If transitory, existence; but the
elections of last fall and this spring
proved otherwise. New York may
safely reassert herself as the pivotal
state. a position which she never has
really lost.

Gcauism.
The times and the state of business
mans mind favor the candidacy of Cor
nelius \. Bliss The treasurer of the
republican national committee occupies
an unusual position with regard to the
politics of the party. He has been
identified with the struggles of the
party for the last two decades. As a
business man he is widely known. and
as leader in all the greater public
movements he has been conspicuous
Mr.. Bliss has been engaged in factional
fights. and at the present time, as a
member of the committee of thirty, he
Is opposing the -Milholland move
ment. But even SO, his connection
with the committee of thirty has been
that of a man who acts from convic-
ton rather than mere factional pref
udice. This fact is recognized by his
opponents, and for this reason Mr..
Platt's opposition means less than it
would in the case of any other man
who can be classed as anti-Platt. 1t is
said by Mr.. Bliss friends that he will
make no active canvass for the govern
orship, but that if the convention
shapes itself upon lines favorable to
his nomination, then he viii consent
TO be named.

convention of 1896 than to the nominal
ton of a governor. This cannot be
done unless perfect harmony prevails,
and, judging from the number of can
dates already in the field. this is not
likely. II no satisfactory nominee can
be decided upon whom the voters of
New York could accept as a candidate
for national honors, then Mayor
Schieren, who was born in Germany
and who is therefore ineligible to the
presidency, may be chosen. Even
though he possess the Erie and Gen
esSee vote, Roberts chances for sec
ond place on the ticket are much bet
ter than they are for first, with the
strength of the convention pretty
evenly divided between him, Senator
Lexow and Speaker Malbv.
At tie present moment there is but
little doubt among the leaders of the
republican party that the next COVER
nor of New York will be either Joseph
II. Choste, Cornelius y. Bliss or L. w.
Russell.
Just what course the leaders Of the
party viii pursue in regard to the con-
yention has not yet been determined.
Mr.. Morton's advice in this matter will
have great weight. A number of
prominent republicans viii visit Europe
next month, and Mr.. Morton is not so
far out of the general route of travel

senator will permit the others wishes
to receive unhampered and unembar-
raised contamination. This fact IS
recognized by every democrat, and for
this reason there has not been rush
to launch early boorns through the
newspaper press.
1t is believed by a majority Of the
democratic leaders that Gov. Flower
viii be reDominated. He is already
assured the support of Tammany; this,
it is stated, in payment for the veto
of the anti Tammany bills, so
called, and more particularly the
Lexow appropriation bill There
is one reason in particular why
Nr. Hill and Tammany Hall should
desire the nomination of ROs-
well p. Flower for governor-Mr. Hills
ambition to be the choice of the next
national convention. So early in July,
1898, Mr.. Hills plan Of campaign was
mapped out. 1t was known, for Mr..
Cleveland himself had SO stated, that
the New York senator could not expect
any favors from the administration,
and that in the last political viii and
testament of Grover Cleveland Mr..
Hill would not be even named, much
less be the chief beneficiary. For this
reason it was decided that Mr.. Hill
should make no effort to please the ad-
ministration, but should ALLEVIATE as
many as possible from fealty to the
president and try to secure a personal
following in congress and among the
business men. The defeat of the nom
nations of Messrs. Hornblower and
Peckham gave the senator the prestige
he desired in congress and the income
tax feature of the tariff bill his golden
opportunity to make for himself high
place in the estimation and respect of
businessmen; more especially the bust
ness representatives of the east and
north.
Senator Hill stands to-day much bet
ter with the men who accused him of
disappearing them at Albany and
OF trickery and peanut politics than he
has ever stood before. lie has become
a national figure and his name is men,
toned with respect and liking in Wash
ington. But Senator Hill is too good a
politician to believe that any machine
man can be elected governor of New
York and too good partisan and care
full of his own ambition and plans ever
to consent without a struggle to the
last ditch to the nomination of an adj
ministration man, for such consum-
nation would blast his hopes for higher
preferment-the presidency.

of the old machine will be directed to
