B1oomers and Leggins.

The bicycle costume of women is facing
the struggle through which the female
bathing costume passed twenty-five years
ago.
Seaside bathing on any large, gregarious
scale began after the war. 1t existed be-
fore. There was not much of it, When
bathers began to multiply along the New
jersey coast women were wearing skirts
which came below the knee and shapeless
monstrosities in waists. Itwas impossible
for anv woman to swim or enjoy herself in
the surf with this clothing, and it added
very seriously to the risks OF bathing.
There WAS great cutlery in the early
seventies, when daring young women VINO
had been at Dieppe and Biarritz on the
French coast shortened their skirts, cut
their waists to fit and in general reefed
their bathing dresses in all directions. Ex-
actly the same criticism was made which
is now heard on the subject Of boomers on
bicycles. Good people objected to the
short bathing dresses. mice people" hes
itated about wearing them. The news
papers made fun of them.
In spite OF all this the short skirts won.
They are seen on every beach. Every one
wears them. All conventions are fully
are seemIy. They are graceful. A
woman makes herself ridiculous if she
wears anything else. The world, all
worlds-the social, the religious, the femi-
nine and even the masculine world tsilliest
of all on these matters)-have accommo-
dated themselves to the short skirts and
exposed legs of the bathing dress.
On the bicycle, skirts are in the way.
They are a nuisance. They catch on the
wheels. They twist into the dust-guards.
They catch the wind and balloon into

MUCH SELF-DENIAL.
The Oakland Corps of Sa1vationists
Raise Large sum.

The Oakland Corps of salvationists
Raise Large Sum.
The self-denial week of the Salvation
Army was the most productive ever held
in this city. The sum of $685. was raised
through this medium in week, and En-
sign Reed does not think there is any
corps in the division that will exceed that
sum.
at is surprising how much people can
save if they only deny themselves what is
not absolutely necessary. Of course, all
this sum is not raised by the actual men,
bers of the Oakland corps, but it represents
their work either in self-denial or in solicit
ing subscriptions. In the garrison, where
the cadets are being trained for officers, the
boys have lived for a week on the bare
necessaries of life that they might have a
little money to give to the fund. 1t may
seem strange to hear of people going with
out milk and sugar and butter and all
such trifles, but when we look at the result
the effort is surely we'll directed.
1.-THE visit of Mrs. Booth to the coast and
the large increase in the number of
auxiliaries has materially helped the
work Of the Salvation Army. Many of the
auxiliaries have gone into the self-denial
fund and have done nobly. l think | am
right in saying that in no other way could
such a respectable sum of money have
been raised. We should have done even
better had it not been for Mrs. Booth S
visit in one sense, because most of our
soldiers are poor, and many spent all they
could spare in attending her lectures.
However Oakland will not be far from the
top of the list on the coast"

weapon. The arrival of the police served
to stop what was in fair way to become
murder.
John Maloney and James Conlan are
friends. James OMAHA and Edward
OMAHA are brothers. Each is prepared
to fight for the other, and early this morn
ing each pair did what it is prepared to do.
Just how the affair started no one seems
to know, but Thanksgiving morning was
only an hour old when North Oakland
was in tumult. The O'Malias and Ma
loney and Conlan would not agree about
the result of turkey rattle. There was a
dispute as to the winning.
One OMAHA held ticket marked 9 and
Conan had ticket marked 6. They were
plain pasteboards, and 8 won. Now. a
8 upside down is q and 6 is 9, and on
this similarity four men prepared to take
each others Ives if need be, before they
would consent to lose prospective turkey.
The peculiar part of the ARRAY is the fact
that both contesting parties changed their
cause of action as the number of beers in
the argument he turned it upside down
and started in to argue and fight that 6
was the winner Conan was not going to
submit to any compromise that would end
in peace, SO he vociferously declared that
he had held his upside down all the time,
and that it was not 6 but 8. James OMAHA
backed his brother Edward and John Ma
loney sustained Conlan.
After satisfying themselves that arbitra-
ton was ont of the question an attempt
was made by Conlon to impress his views
on the O'Malias by hammering their heads
with a beer bottle. The indignity was re-
turned and when the police arrived LAGER
ated heads and clothes literally adorned
with blood and arms fiourishiDg bottles
were all mixed up.
After separating the combatants all four
men were taken to Jail and charged with
assault with deadly weapon" Edward
OMAHA will also have to account for carry
ing concealed weapons. John Maloney

OAKLAND, CAL. Nov. 2S.-One of the
strangest cases that have come to the atten-
ton of the local authorities for some time
past, and that had flavor of Puritanism
in New England, developed here this
evening, when r. G. Chisholm arrested
his young wife and turned her over to Of
ficer Curtiss, who locked the young
lady up.
Mrs. Chisholm is not long married, and
is very slight, fair girl, 20 years of age.
Her husband arrested her because she
used vulgar language 10 him.
Mr.. Chisholm accompanied his wife and
the officer to the City Hall and saw her
locked up. He did not tell the jailer the
nature of the language complained of nor
the cause which led to its use, but seemed
contented to swear to complaint.
About two hours after his wife's arrest
Chisholm returned to the prison, ex-
pressed great regret at having had his
wife imprisoned, and expressed a desire to
bail her out. He produced the necessary
cash and was allowed to walk off with his
wife

TWO WISE DOGS.
One Rides on Streetcars and the other

One Rides on Streetcars and the Other
Likes Brass Buttons.
There are dogs and again there are dogs,
wisely observes the Cleveland Recorder.
There is the dog with the human intellect
that travels with the side show to the
greatest show on earth" and picks out
the letters that spei1 the words cat and the
like, and then wags his tail with ''you
amt in it, expression.
But the dog am about to speak of dis
counts all intellectual dogs known to the
business, and even the educated hog"
This dog is of the water spaniel variety,
and he lives in the East End. He has
friends downtown, however, and visits
them frequently. The funny thing about
this dog is that he won't walk any more
than he absolutely has to. He doesn't
have to walk downtown either, for he
waits until a car comes along and "dead-
heads" his way.
He makes call or two on lower Superior
and then rides home. at 5 o'clock in the
evening this dog has been known to go ont
on the street and pick out Cedar-avenue
car from all the different lines and yarie-
ties Of cars running east and west along
that Gro wded thoroughfare at that hour
If the car happens to be one of the modern
kind he stands on the running-board and
if not, he climbs up into the vestibule with
the motorman. When he gets home this
dog gives a yelp and the motorman stops
to let his passenger off. That's what call
dog-On intellect.
Speaking of dogs reminds me of another
brainy variety. This one was an Irish
setter and as handsome and intelligent a
looking specimen of the canine family as
l ever saw. He was raised in an army
post in the northern part of Montana, and
seldom if ever saw person in civilian 8
clothes. Everything was brass buttons
and Indians with the Montana dog.
When his master was ordered to the re-.
cruiting office in this CITY the dog came
along as part of the family. He was un-
used 70 city life and missed the brass but.
tons. The dog was not vicious, but he
eyed every one in the attire of civilian
with suspicion. But the dog found a few
friends. The postman on the beat imme.
diately fell into favor with him-those
brass buttons were what he had long been
looking for.
Do you know that great MANY women
are just like that dog-dead stuck on brass
buttons and gold braid?

ugly shapes. They worry nervous and
sensitive women as to the precise exposure
in progress about the boot tops. Occult
tapes and bands are invented and adver-
tised warranted to Delay skirts and reef
them down to proper behavior.
Boomers and Iegglns are the next nat
ural step. They provide costume suited
and seemly. Objection is made. So there
was to the short bathing skirts. The new
costume is shock. So was the old. it is
the subject of unpleasant remark and
some remarks which are worse than I'M
pleasant. But it is right. 1t meets the
needs of new situation. Social conyen-
tions and the conventions of dress will
accommodate themselves to the new cos
tune just as they did to the bathing dress,
and, as with skirts in the surf, five years
from now the INCEST and most fastidious
will be wearing costumes at which the
most daring now hesitate.
Even the leggins are an unnecessary
concession to foolish prejudice. In our
summer climate they are hot and uncom-
Portable. They add cost. They wear out
rapidly. Being conspicuous. they have to
be kept in perfect order. They add one
more risk, and no small one, and loose
strap or button may mean serious fall.
Why wear them? How altogether sensible
the women are who are appearing on the
bicycle with boomers that come to the
knee and stockings below.
Nor should one thing be forgotten.
These changes are most easily made and
made to the best purpose by those who
enjoy recognized position in society.
They owe duty to all other women.
There is none which such women should
take more pains in meeting and dis
charging just at present than the adoption
and wear of the only sensible costume on
bicycle, boomers to the knee and stock
ings beyond.-P Press.

OIL TO COME BY STEAMERS.
One Tank Holding $4,000 Gallons Now
En- Route Here-The Cheap Fuel
Problem.

F. W. Flint, one of the wealthiest men of
Los Angeles and director il the Los An
geles Oil Exchange, is in the City to estab
lish enormous crude petroleum oil tanks.
One tank, which was ordered some time
ago from the East, is now on the way and
will be here in few days. 1t will hold
$4,000 gallons.
Other great tanks are soon to be built,
also. They will be erected at the Potrero,
so Mr.. Flint stated last night at the Grand.
The Pacific Rolling Mills, which has de-
cided to use crude oil instead of the ordi-
nary fuel heretofore used, has contracted
for tank to hold 1000 gallons. Other
large manufacturers in San Francisco, Mr..
Flint says, are also making arrangements
to use oil.
1--WE intend to put on steamer at San
Pedro,' he continued, ''to carry the oil to
this City, and it will run regularly. For
the present we will ship the oil by rail
from Los Angeles to San Pedro, but little
later we will build pipe lines to San Pedro
| to convey the Oil.
| "The Los Angeles Oil Exchange now con-
trolls a product of $500 gallons OF oil day
| from the Los Angeles wells, and has a con-
tract for this product for three years.
"We feel that the time has arrived to
| bring the oil here, so that manufacturers
and others can use it, At present every
public building in Los Angeles Is utilizing
| it, and it is in the schools and dwellings,
so that now you rarely see a load of coal on
| the streets in that city.
I "Our Oil is great steam producer. The
Pacific Rolling Mills, which made test of
it, found that one pound of ore evaporated
sixteen pounds of water. The Santa Fee
railway engines, to the number of twenty,
are now using the OIL regularly. and will
increase at the rate of two engines a month.
1.-THE Terminal and Redondo roads are
also using crude petroleum. We will bave
ample storage here. There will be no
| question about that. The enormous $4,000
| gallon tank which is now en- route here
| from the East should be here inside of a
| week."
| Mr.. Flint has been selected by the ex-
change to make all the arrar gements
here, and he will open offices. Pipes
already convey the oil from the wells to the
railroad at Los Angeles. Probably before
spring the pipe lines will be extended to
connect direct with the oil steamers at San
! Pedro harbor.
