One tennis suit attracted my eye, with the

soutache A belt and ends of black ribbon
finished this pretty suit A sailor hat Of
dark red straw with black band was to
be worn with 1t. A suit for girl Of IA
was of dark blue linen with three rows
of white titan braid around the skirt
and two rows ON the belt. The blouse and
sleeves were of pale blue linen, and there
were five rows Of dark blue braid on the
sleeves. A little Elton jacket to match the
skirt finished up this natty little suit. A
pretty blue straw O'Shanter with blue
ribbon went with this, but red knitted
one was also said to be as suitable and
would be more striking.
Golhng suits are so various and yet SC
little varied that there Is scarcely anything
new except perhaps the stockings, and
these are also used by all the athletic
young ladies for tennis, mountain wear
and bicycling. They are intended as a
protection against accidental bruises and

they are anything but beautiful

and make her his wife. Doty was formerly
a resident Of Washington and his brother
Is an Episcopalian minister. His mother
was close friend of ex-Secretary Bayard
whose influence procured for young Doty
the Tahiti or Society islands mission dur
ing President Cleveland's first term. Doty
has weathered the storms of changing ad-
ministrations and for nine years has served
his country In the south Pacific.
Doty was but 30 years of age when he
first went to Tahiti and soon became the
accepted lover of Miss Paloma Brander,
the princess of Titiaroa, a small island OPP
posite Tahiti. She was the daughter of
John Brander, who has made millions as
Tahiti merchant. The course of true
love apparently did not run smooth, for
one day Miss Paloma sailed away from
Tahiti, and unlike the cat she never came
back For Il time Doty was disconsolate,
but he finally concluded that there were
other pretty maids in the south Pacific,
for he speedily fell in love with Miss Tutae
Muna, q dark eyed heiress who owned
acres of cocoanut plantations. The engage
ment was announced and the wedding
day set but once more Doty failed to
marry his dusky flancee.
One day while Doty and companion
were walking along the beach they saw n
young native girl struggling with u cap
sized canoe in the surf. Doty is n strong
swimmer and man Of courage, and in
very melodramatic fashion he plunged into
the water, caught the imperlled maid in
his arms and swan with her to the shore.
The only thing naturally that could follow
such gallant rescue was wedding. The
girl was only 16 years of age and was
Miss Maeva Tumera Raoul, the half caste
daughter of wealthy resident of Tahiti.
Mr.. Raoul did not object to the atten-
tions of Doty, but when marriage was
mentioned he protested that HE daughter
was too young
Undaunted by such a rebuff, Doty per
suaded Miss Raoul to elope with him. The
lovers hurried to boat one dark night,
fed to Sir Charles Saunders island and
were promptly married according to the
native rites. Mrs. Doty is considered q
beauty In Tahiti. She has long dark hair,
big, soulful eyes and a slender, graceful
figure. She speaks three languages and
plays every musical instrument known tc
the Tahitian.
