RIGHT TO WEAR BOOMERS.

ELIZABETH CADY STANTON ridicules
IL the idea that a woman doesn't look
well on a bicycle. mo woman could
look worse on a wheel than a man bent
at an angle of 40 degrees, and with coat
tails flying" she declares As for dress
she does not doubt that in time women will
look pretty and graceful in long stockings.
knickerbockers, tight fitting sacks and
military caps
Il like trim vessel in storm, with all
sails reefed. They will, as an object lesson,
illustrate great natural law; that woman
is a bifurcatcd animal, and does not run, as
she seems to the ordinary observer, like a
churn on castors, a pyramid in shape fror
waist downward being with two legs
for free motion must of necessity have
bifurcated garments. This revelation OF
legs has been great shock to some sensi
tive souls. and the debates on the question
of what women should wear have been as
hysterical as on the first point, should she
be permitted to ride at all?
''As she decided the first for herself and
defiantly rode off in the face of her OPP
ponents, she will decide the second point,
and wear what she pleases, gradually max
ing changes in dress and wheels, as added
comfort and convenience demand, and popu-
lar prejudices must yield her undisputed
sway in this new field of activity. just as
they have other strongholds from time to
time in the past"

QUEEN LIKES ANTIQUES.

THE recent celebration OF Queen Vic
turlas birthday recalls how strangely
she sticks to old customs. She has
until recently resisted the introduction at
Windsor and her other residences of any Of
the modern Improvements now deemed in
iispcnsable by people OF nearly all classes
of society.
To Illustrate the queens faithful adher-
ence. where possible, TO old fashioned ways,
it may be mentioned that in her own phi
yate rooms her majesty will not use coal
for her fires, but insists on burning only
n special kind Of wood blocks, the pre-.
pairing Of which is regular business. In
this iab. the queen can scarcely be ami
mated by dislike to coal as a novelty:
her objection is to the smoke and dirt which
the coal fire causes. In like manner she
refuses to use gas, which is at all events
discovery of more recent date.
The queen remains faithful to candles.
oil being burned equally with gas. And
not only that, but the electric light. which
is distinctly modern device and which
is free from the Objectionable features
peculiar to both oil and gas, has not SO far
been admitted to her maiesty's household.
There is an excellent electric light plant
in Windsor Castle, and certain parts OF the
building are fitted for the light. but it is
risidIy excluded from the queens rooms
aud from the greater part OF tie palace.
The telegraph wire is an absolute neces-
sity, aud her ma icsty so far realizes this
that, wherever she may be, direct tele-
graphic communication with the rest Of the
world exists. Aud now the telephone has
become in everyday life almost as essential
as the telegraph. A special wire has been
put up between Windsor and London to
place the castle aud government offices in
direct communication by telephone. and
henceforth her ma jesty will be able. IL she
pleases. while comfortably seated in her
own apartments, to converse with the pre-
mier or minister at Whitehall or in rarlia-
ment almost as easily and literally as if he
was in her presence.

ENJOYMENT RAIN-PRooF.
Showers Did Not Detract From St.
AlOysius' Fair Crowds.


The unfavorable weather last evening
had little or no effect on the attendance at
st. Aloysius festival and lawn fete
The ladies and their assistants at the
various booths were kept busy, business
In their several lines being in no way
interrupted OF lessened by other attrac-
lions. The chances on Father Colgan's
picture are climbing up to the thousands,
and no doubt a neat sum will be realized
from this source. The merry -go-round ant
the dance pavilion, on account of the shell
ter they afforded, were largely patron
lied
The special attraction last evening was
the acrohatic performance of Howard and
Lee, two Washington boys, who are art
lists in their line. In the early part of the
evening there was an exhibition OF fancy
dancing by Master Chris Spoesser, who
danced hornpipe in fine style.
The special feature tonight will Re the
"fire car" The car will Re run on the
roller coaster tracks. On toard the car
will be several persons who as the car
moves rapidly from one end of track to
the other, will keep up constant dis
charge OF rockets, roman candles and ether
beautiful fireworks. Besides this another
amusing feature will be a cake walk by
professional walkers. And in addition
to all this there will Re fancy dancing By
some OF the local favorites.

A LIVING BY PHOTOGRAPHY.

| A CERTAIN young woman less than
| "A year ago found herself cast penniless
upon the world, with no talent for
anything in particular, and NO training
except as an amateur photographer. She
had her OUTFIT, OF course, and at once set
i out to tile neiglIboriDg suburbs to search
forOrders. Her tradela with those country
| folks who could afford set Of professional
| photographs or OF weather. patrons who
preferred natural sitting to the stiited one
obtained SO often at the photographers.
Weather suburban residents wanted their
| country mansions taken from every side
| and in every aspect. They wanted photos
OF the favorite hooks and bosky delis
about the country grounds.
The albums which she composed of views
| bleach town Units different aspectssoid like
hot cakes for a reasonable price. One sam
pie album she composed and exhibited
about the place and received orders for
others. This was really one Of the most
fortunate of her inventive genius.
Amateur theatrical stars were another
class which formed extrava CANT and de-
voted patrons. In suburbs where the
craze exists for performing under the trees
with starry canopy, she had orders
to be photographed in their di fferent
costumes. The various scenes were desired
in several sizes and tones. And groups
We're ordered by onlookers as well as per-
formers on pretty souvenirs. In the country
she received calls TO the animal and pro-
duce fairs. Many We're the orders for
such homely subjects as the prize pig, the
COW who won the medal, the finest colt
and SO on through the enure farmyard
list.
When the first start was secured she in
troduced many Innovations in her work.
Photographs upon china Were added to the
album sale and these were another real
financial success. The album sale was very
extensive. because the little volume. being
charmingly bound, formed charming re-
mcmbrances OF many summer Trip or of
childhood haunts. The advantage in the
work-it is almost sure to strike the woman
at first thought who understands camera
talks the fact that the necessary camera
outfit is so easy OF access. The materials,
instruments aud so on required are so few
ana so reasonable in price that it is perhaps
the cheapest makeup" In any OF the wo-
mans meters which are at present spring-
Ing up all around us.-Chicago Hs-ouicie-

Edward Thornbur9 Is Ill Unto Death

Threatened Eviction From Their

A huge basket OF provisions Furnished
by The Times brought Joy last night Il

one of poverty and sickness and the edict

In the paragraph quoted below the Santa Fe New Mexican mAkes an ex. oellent suggestion, aud one which ought 10 be carried into effect by con- gress. We quote:
 "We notice that the California State Miners' Association has sdopted res. olution memorializing congress to ere ses department of mines and min- ing. Certainly there is quite as much need for such department as there is for . department of agriculture, but we sincerely question the wisdom of increasing the number of special de- partments of tho government in the manner suggested The crestion of a department of mines and mining would establish . precedent for an almost endless multiplication of de- psrtmsnts, and doubsless we wocld soon have . department of the nail and ssrew trust, . department of the fuel combine aud 60 on sdfinitum. Our impression is that it would be better to abolish the department of sg- ricuiture end create in lieu thereof . department of industries with bureaus under it covering sgricul.ure, mining, manufacturing, etc. This is merely . modest suggestion. It is not neces- sarily binding on congress"
