WILL SHE WEAR IT?

Design for = Rational Bicycle Costume
Submitted By Vogue With Oomments
on Boomers and Long skirts.
UTANTED-A SUITABLE MODEL FOR A
w cycling costume for women.
Thus writer in Vogue begins an
article on what women should wear
when riding bicycles.
Most women riders cling to the long
skirt. she continues, a few have ventur-
ed into "blOomerS" with long coat up
pers. and an occasional rider has ap-
peared clad In top boots, knicsebockers
and short skirts.
No one as yet-at least in New York
has had the temerity TO don short
skirt costume and appear 10 1t sans leg
gins, sans top boots.
Men cyclists regard even the nom
expansive trOuser leg as an undesirable
handicap, and they discard il in favor
of knee breaches. And women find the
weight OF long skirts an even heavier
tax on their strength and serious
drawback 10 the enjoyment OF cycling.
At every upward movement the knee
has to lift a mass Of stuff, and when
only mildly stiff breeze has to be faced

a Very Good way to Neglect Duty.
chicago Record


It is interesting 10 learn that the peo-
pie who form the inner circle Of society
in Washington are aggrieved because
the wife OF the President OF the United
States has been attending 10 the duties
and cares OF her home and her family
a. the expense OF her duties as social
leader. The society element evidently
feels that il is entitled 10 have Mrs.
CleVeland's presence TO enjoy and dis
play on dress occasions, and instead
Mrs. Cleveland persists in staying at
home looking after the babies.
No doubt the opinions Of the Wash
ington society people on this point ate
very important, but they are chiefly H.
teresting at present In that they shdw
the great difference between Washitg-
ton people and American citizens. The
latter. remembering what a mother
Mary Washington was aud what her
motherhood did for the world, are
mighty we'll pleased to find beautiful
and cultured woman OF the modern day
who might have the social world at her
feet but who prefers to follow ia the
old-fashioned way and be true TO Der
womaDly instincts.

RAILRoADs-WeaK.
STOCKS-The share speculation to-day
was characterized by considerable ACTIVITY,
but the increase in the volume Of business
was due to the inauguration or selling
movement which included Sugar, St. Paul,
Burlington and Chicago Gas, and in
lesser degree, others Of the active shares.
The pressure to sell was most pronounced
in Sugar. There is growing 0ellet that
the refining sugar interests Will not re-
ceive that consideration which they have
claimed TO be assured in the
tariff oil If it should reach final passage.
The speculation in Washington is oecom-
ing very unsettled and the outlook is not
so clear as il was few weeks back for
the sugar people The shares OF the sugar
trust are, however, supported, and after
several attacks to-day show only decline

before the large pipe required for the

been completed and the planthas been

which is the largest ever cast on this

casting this big pipe was found to be
in working order so that the plant is
now ready to begin work on the big

foundry will start up next week.

begging, we think it would do more real
good, as the city has been divided into dis
tricts. with two or more workers in each,
whose duty it is to look after the worthy
poor in their districts. and where aid is
needed to report the same to the society.
after g careful investigation has been
made, when the necessary help will be
given. BY helping in this way the people
who are deserving will receive aid. and
begging will be encouraged. An instance
came under the writer's notice, some two
weeks ago where man begging on the
south side secured three overcoats in one
block from as many kind ladies. Now you
can understand why it is better to have
one general distributing point where they
have better opportunities of knowing who
need help and those who do not. II there
are any cases of destitution that have not
been looked after will you please send
postal card to Miss Davis, Humane society
rooms, who will see that the cases are
looked after. This would greatly help us
in our work.
The Humane society has been enabled to
do great work this winter through the
of Mrs Walden and others, who
have given US so readily when called upon.
There never bas been more calls for assist
ance than now. EX. Com.

EXCELLENT ANCE.

A! G. Fields minstrels showed last night
at the Crawford opera house to one Of the
largest audiences of the season. The COM
pany is very strong this season. and is GER
tainly entitled to the fair reputation il has
among theater-goers. The performance
was notably free from the cbestnuts usu-
ally peddled about by minstrel companies,
and the sayings of the end men were ex-
ceptionally bright, new. spicy and witty.
The singing was admirable. and every
number was accorded an encore.
The specially work was better than last
year, and that is saying good deal, for it
was then Field gained the popularity here
that filled the house for him last night
from the orchestra to the second heaven in
the gallery.
C. A Rose presented each member Of the
company with button-hole bouquet, and
Mrs. Bowen presented Mr.. Field with a
fine basket of flowers.
The company chartered Frisco train
last night. which took them to Joplin, Mo.
