Notes of the Came.

Hart has been taking notes from Beck
ley's book. He very nearly upset Hassa-
mer in the first by running across the
base bath.
The game scheduled between Washington
and Pittsburg for July 16 and II viii be
played to-day and Friday, which are open
dates for both teams. This prevents jump
back here during the next Western trip.
The game to-day will be called at $50.
The crowd was big one, filling all the
seats. and the ladies were out in great
force.
1t would have been worth good money
TO have won first blood with two holidays
to follow.
Let US be thankful that ST. Louis ard the
Colonels fell down with us.
CoDny Mack does the schoolmaster act
in a very public manner when his men fail

WHEELERS WILL SHOW UP
Crack Events of the Great Columbia

Over One Hundred and Sixty of the
Best Cyclers in the Circuit VIII

Indications now are that the bicycle meet
on Columbia Field at Seventeenth and G
streets, on Decoration Day, will be the
biggest affair of its kind ever held in this
city. There are over 16O entries in the
the entries are all the cracks of the circuit,
of which this city is part.
Every afternoon finds the track crowded
with the racers, putting on their finishing
touches, with the hope of taking off few
seconds from the best each has done before.
The track is in fine condition, indeed; so
fast that 1t is expected that several records
will be endangered.
Fred Sims. who will be Que of the great
drawing cards, is taking lots of prac
tice daily. He will go up against such
cracks as Jack White, of Baltimore; Cause,
of the Road Club, and Won Boeckman, un-
attached, all of class B, and the events in
which these riders will appear viii alone
be worth the price or admission.
The novice race will be an interesting one,
as well as the one mile open.
The committee in charge of the meet hopes
to arrange a race for an open unpaeed mile,
which will be an interesting event, as
each man will virtually be riding against
time.

one ticket admits to the full card of racing.
Trials, of which there will be twenty
six, will be run in the forenoon and the ten
finals in the afternoon.
The prize list is an extensive and very
valuable one. One of the latest prizes
donated is a very handsome gold medal
valued at $40, presented by the wide
awake Georgetown Cycle Club, which
takes enough interest in the event to pre-
sent the medal unsolicited. 1t will be
put on the one quarter mile open, in addition
to the prize offered by the management.
In adtestion to tho Evening Star and Even

The bow is fashions fad. It has burst into bloom everywhere. It is omnipresent. The old, the young, the tion of femininity has yielded to it's magnetic influence, and it has become fashions crest for 1895. How long it will reign in the feminine heart re- mains to be seen. Time only can prove that. Gentle woman has cast her own fair form before it's shrine, and her lingerie, her hosiery, her gartcrs, her shoes, her gowns, her millinery, her neck wear, her fans, flowers, bon bons, her huff, her parasol, every accessory within and every accessory without everything seen and everything unseen -all-all are decorated with this recent fad of fashion, and the power behind fashions throne dares not predict where it may end.
 Gentle woman has had other fads She embroidered her gowns with sum- flowers and cat-tails at one time and in her hand she carried sunaowers and cat-tails; later she worshiped at the shrine of the rose and still more recent ly she smiled with favor upon the vio- let. She bowed before Napoleon and Trilby, but her subjection has never in any instance-no, not in all instances put together-been as complete in it's nature as in this reign of the bow.
 She has gathered the bow from the bric-a-brac and from the piano legs and tied it about her own anatomy her neck, her knees, her elbows, her waist; she has picked it from his shoulders and from his head, and she has encouraged it in every locality to

 However important are all these con spicuous bows, the true sentiment of +ha bow never penetrated deeply into tbo feminine heart until fair woman piled it to the decoration of her nnder wear.

While the bow adorns baa underwear, it will stem the tide fbst tends toward boomers. My lady fies her robe de nuit with ribbon bows o+ the neck and wrists and ties a blossom in with the loops.

ONE THANKSGIVING.

It was Thanksgiving day and tbe kitchen so full of delicious odors that Mr. Beebee fingered in it after break. fast watching his wife make her Dies.
 "0le Mis- Lockers goin' to the pore. house tomorrow, she remarked.
 .'So?" ejaculated MT. Beebee, nan of few words.
 Why, yes, father, where you been for two days not to hear it? Coin to the porehouse at Thanksgivin', an her with two married daughters!"
 Mr. Beebee puffed at his pipe, making no reply.
 Jane Rose said she'd take her ma if she'd wear false teeth"
 "False teeth, hey ?s
 'Yes. I'd like to know how she'd even have cut her own teeth if her ma hadn't took care of her while she was doing it;s she made dive at the unof- fensiye cat, the pore ole souls most heart broke Sary Loo won't have her ma because hel grammar's bad.s
 Mir. Beebee took his pipe out of his mouth long enough to say: Who taught her to talk, wonder?" and im- nediately replaced it.
 That's you, father,' cried his wife, admiringiy, you ain't much of hand to talk, but when you do you say some- thing" The sole reply was d grunt.
 She was over to tn graveyard last week to see her husbands grave; says she can't ever hope to get over from the porehouse bein' sech poor walker
 Mir. Beebee's pipe was done, and he knocked the ashes out. "She ain't goin nohow," he said.
 Matthew Beebee, you don't sayl"
 "Th' church has labored with her da'ters; they're goin' to have her week about. Don't know it herself yet though; Jane Rose don't want her till after Thanksgivin goin' to sur prise her tomorrow"
 Well, if you wouldn't try the pa. tience of saint, lettin' me most spoil my Thanksgivin' over it for nothin'. There comes Mis- Roach, father; you watch the pies while run out and tell her. Say, Mis- Roach, ole Mis- Tooker ain't goin' to tn porehousel" she cried breathlessly.
 q know she ain't-" her face was very grave.
 "Who told you?"
 ''Thc doctor; she died an hour ago.
 An she never knew she wasn't to go to the porehouse; never knew Jane Rose was comin' fer her to-morroWs
 Not word of it; last thing she sala was: Is the porehouse wagon com0 yit? ]"
 Mrs. Beebee sat down upon the steps, her apron over her head, and WePs aloud.
