some miraculous way so that they are
worn in a stif breeze with apparent COM
fort. And the short Louis XVI capes that
are fashioned in silks of all sorts of bright
attractive shades, look we'll with the dark
upholstery of victoria as a background.
one of the most interesting personages
to be seen in the Bots is the popular Meta
"Gyp." Mounted on her well-groomed
thoroughbred, she dashes along the bri-
die paths at a very lively gait. Her habit
is a modest dark gray, double-breasted
jackets, quite long, with a ripple back
and the dark gray skirt is short and is
scant as possible.
Mrs Morss, the wife of the American
consul general, has a beautifully appoint
ed equipage, but just now one misses this
familiar turnout among the other car
rldges that roll along through the great
gates into the Bots. Both Mr.. and Mrs
Morss are spending quite little time in
Naples now, and the horses and victoria
were taken along. Mrs. Warden Pells
