temperance campaign in New York this autumn, the facts in the case are being made known. They may result in the complete abandonment by this lady of her present field of endeavor.
 Lady Henry Somerset's oldest son is likely to inherit rich and ancient title in England. Even without this grati- lying prospect he is very well off, in- deed But he is not so aesthetic as his mother. Nor are the other near rela- tives of the lady so severe in their ideas about drink as she is In fact, many of them seem to be quite out of sympathy

A style so convenient as the long skirted coat will be long in dying. The skirts of this garment will fall to a little above the joint of the hips and will be cut full, quite like the coat in the regimental uniform that Washing ton designed, except that it is shorter. The coat is worn over either shirt waist or a soft silk waist. The former is "most smart" the latter most pretty, and hence most sensible

Now the bicycle bloomer suit might seem to scout the idea of conventional ity, but there is much even on wheels to prove it.
 After all that has been said about the bloomers, there is this to add:
 The society girls in Newport didn't wear them last month, though now and again they might be seen worn by a visitor.
 The girls of millions and of mansions are not wearing them this month in Lenox, though boomers a-plenty may tour it through, flashing from one big town to another. The east wears skirts. The west takes to the innovation more kindly And the west in this case be- gins at the longitude of New York. Here, numbers give courage.
 Yet it is still true that short skirt, close, natty jacket and leggings are the mode in bicycle wear. By a short skirt one means six inches from the ground, though such skirt seems, when the fair bieyelist is pedaling to be much shorter than it really is.

The autumn dress will illustrate the conservatism of fashion in a very diff ferent way.
 The cut and hang of walking skirts will be what they were in the spring, and the use of horsehair or other stiff Things will be quite as general. Tri- fling innovations will be more apt to appear in the bodice Here the tailor made ideal of primness no longer holds undisputed sway, and there is decided return to fluffy and feminine effects. Such are the so-called cascade revers, which were modish at least five years ago, when sleeves were still of modest proportions, though expanding. A berthe of lace, or sheer muslin edged with lace, is one of the most charming

GREAT nRrrAIN,s LAST ASSUMPTION

If it is true that the British govern
ment has said to the representatives of
this government that it will listen to
our interposition in behalf of Nicaragua
If the United States has assumed a pro-
tectorate over that government some
novel complications are likely to arise
which involve new questions. It in
wolves practical denial of the claims
asserted by the United States in the
Monroe doctrine. The British position
is that the United States has no right
to protest against the occupation of the
territory of any of the small nationalities
to the south of us unless it has assumed
a protectorate over them and become
responsible for liabilities to other ma
lions. 1t is even declaration by Great
Britain that it has the right to seize any
territory on this continent and put it
under British rule or a British protec-
torate.
1t is not too much to say that such an
affirmation upon the part of Great
Britain will attract wide attention and
call forth a very general protest on the
part of the American people. In 1924
the United States affirmed the Monroe
doctrine, and all administrations and
congresses have since affirmed it. That
doctrine is to the effect that after that
declaration the United States would not
permit European powers to obtain
further dominion on this continent by
invasion or treaty because such occu-
pancy was inimical to the struggling
republics in South and Central America.
Napoleon III, while we were engaged in
civil war; found pretext to set up what
amounted to a French protectorate in
Mexico, but the prompt assistance rem
dered to the Mexican republic just as
our war closed and the movement of
troops to the Mexican border with the
evident purpose of driving off the foreign
invader caused the French Emperor to
basely abandon to a terrible fate the
man he had sent to be his emperor. The
whole American people applauded that
action in 1865, and they hold to the same
policy now.
The administration has shown itself
weak in it's treatment of all foreign COM
plioations. but it now has an opportunity
to redeem itself. To strong administra-
ton this question would afford an occa-
sion to display that craftsmanship which
Seward displayed during the war and
Fish exhibited in the settlement of the
Alabama claims Such men would UNI
doubtedly be equal to the task which
the attitude of Great Britain seems to
involve, but are President Cleveland, Sec
rotary Gresham and Minister Bayard
equal to the occasion?
