New YORK, Oct. 2l.-The Herald
says: The Protestant Episcopal church
of the United States is about to organ
ize an army of uniformed evangelists
who will be under military discipline
and compete with the Salvation Army
and the American Volunteers in the
field of Christian work among the poor.
This important project has been decided
on at meeting of prominent clergy
men from different parts of the country
held in the church missions house. The
matter came up for consideration some
time ago, before the parochial mission
society. A committee of this represen.
tative body was appointed ito
investigate the army project. The in.
vestigating committees report was
read and recommended the adoption of
the army scheme. A committee was
appointed and it Will at once proceed
to complete the de, IS of the organiza-
tion. The plans will include the best
features of the Salvation Army and of
the Church Army of England, from
which the former organization sprang.
Uniformed corps of trained evangelists
under military discipline will be sta
toned in different cities. The men will
preach in the streets and be aided by
bands of music. The work ultimately
will include the erection of laborer'
homes and lodging houses for men, and
rescue homes for fallen women.

making the most idiotic grimacss.
My husband, my husband" shrieked
the woman, falling forward in dead
faint.
And so It was. Driven insane, as so
many are by the sufferings of the des-
ert, the poor fellow had wandered to the
border and had been rescued, but too
late to save his reason.
THE BEST CROSSING.
Good sturdy travellers used to long
rides and abundantly provided with
money. boast that they can cross the Mo-
jave with as little discomfort as others
can follow mountain trail for q week
These travellers go mounted upon mules,
70 whose saddles are hung water bags
without number. One solitary rider
Vent with three mules harnessed fast to
his own, and each was covered with
great rubber bags, each Of which held
twenty-five gallons of water.
So great is the heat that the rubber
has been known TO soften, and provis-
ion must be made for this. An i'm
properly finished piece of rubber will
collapse when most wanted, namely
when the sun gets driving and thirst be-
comes Undesirable.
These wealthy mine owners, for such
they are that cross the desert with
such abundant provision for their COM
fort, unfurl great canopies at midday
and sit under them with the beasts. At
night they travel, and as the sun comes
out they unfurl the canopy again and,
bathing the feet of the animals with wa
ter they refresh themselves and lie
down 10 sleep away the first hot hours
Of the day.
1t is unsafe to sleep during the very
strong heat. for the animals may b.
come maddened by the sun and dash out
their brains. Or the sun may slant and
creep under the canopy and burn the
sleeper hopelessly. Neither is it safe TO
battle in the burning sun, for terrible
water blisters will rise almost instantly
upon the moist skin.
Humanitarians. who have at heart the
follies as well as the virtues of mankind,
their necessities as well as their avarice,
have seriously considered the establish
msnt of stations where the MOjaye tray
elers can get supplies before starting
cut. stations where water and water
bags. food and proper raiment are sold
cheap, far below town prices. And this
lookout for their comfort would be
enough TO carry them safely across. In
the hottest month they would be boarded

Paris, August 12.-There are still
number of enthusiastic riders here who
prefer to take their outings on the back
of a well-groomed trotter, though the
deserters who have gone over to the
wheel are in the majority.
Unless you have read the advertise
ment for horse-trotting saddle, an En-
glish invention that is warranted TO ca
reer around in a canter, or trot or gallop
in your own room, you can have no idea
of the benefits received from horse-rid-
ing. The Princess of Wales mounts her
hOrse-trOtting saddle every day, and by
pressing button she can canter or trot
to her hearts content, with the blissful
consciousness that her circulation, COM
plexion, figure, and lines are being
greatly beautified all the while.
PRINCESS IN RUSSET.
For these rides the princess wears q
very loose-fitting coat OF russell over a
habit Of russell linen. Her hat is a rus
set Derby She dresses FOR this ride as
carefully as for the dress parade OF the
Ancient and Honorable Boston Her
russets are now the London rage, and
soon will be the rage in America, for We
put on russell at nome when the leaves
begin to brown.
But | don't believe the fair, athletic
looking equestriennes That | see each
morning on the bride path of the Bots
would accept this house horse-saddle as
a subs.ituts. For they look as though
they enjoyed to the fullest the freedom
of the out-of-door exercise.
Just think how fine it must be to view
the crowds at the Bots from so exalted
a position as TO tread ones way along
the wild, green bride paths, and to
stumble, all by chance, upon a delight

1t is difficult TO say just what kind OF
habits are being worn most. for through
these summer months there is notice
able an unique variety in habits. Some
still cling to the dark cloth habits. They
are conservative ones and they are IN
the minority.
A stylish habit I saw was of black
rough cheviot. with strapped seams.
The waist was double-breasted, button
ing over stiff linen chemisejte with
small black bone buttons. The basques
were long and not very full. A low
Derby and white gauntlets were worn
with this habit
There is a jolly rolly-poly red-chesked
American girl who drives out every day

generally she wears dark green skirt,
