Form of Head Covering With Neither

Form OF Head Covering With Neither
Excuse Nor Explanation.
From the London Daily News
The tall, cylindrical hat is perhaps the
most hidecus. the most uncomfortable, the
most inconvenient, the m ost perishable, and
the most tenacious of all articles of head
gear known to history.
Our male ancestors wore odd and un-
handsome things; shoes whose prolonged
tips were attached to the knees, ruffs
about four feet in diameter, tights Of in
credible tightness, and so forth, but these
foolish fashions never lasted long, Men
wearied of them or were laughed or preach
ed out of them. But the tall hat sits as
tight and eternally as Theseus on the hu-
man skull. Like the corset on woman, and
far less excusahly, 1t seems to be q per-
manent institution.
True we are more emancipated than our
sires, who played golf, and even cricket, in
orthodox tall hats. Advanced thinkers
wear Devastating caps round. cloth caps,
socialist or Bible reader f1at-shaped soft
black felt things, and the Tyrolean or
Monte Carlo hat which lady described
as more brigand than socialist. In the coun-
try tall hats are little worn now, except
by elderly physicians and solicitors.
Thus. there are seeming tokens Of the de-
cline Of the tall hat. but it holds its own
firmly in London and Paris An eminent
cool his intellectual brow; still, he wears it.
Few persons who do not positively pose as
enemies Of society" or friends of the
people" Germs curiously Interchangeable
have the courage to wear any other head
gear In town, even at Lords. Yet no NOR
tai has good word for the tall hat, ex-
cept doctors who carry stethoscopes in
theirs.

The Last Stand of a Manned Fox-

from the Richrnond Dispatch.
A fox was captured near Heathsville, Va,
recently, that possessed only three legs.
Several young men were on their way 10 the
village when dog belonging to them start
ed the fox and gave chase. A hound be-
longing to neighbor was then turned loose
to assist the other dog. When the fox re-
allied that there was no chance for his
life he crouched behind bush, waited for
the dogs to come up, and gave battle. He
was soon dispatched, and, on examination,
was found to De minus leg. The missing
member had been cut off, presumably by a
steel trap, close up to the shoulder, and the
wound had healed up nicely. Those who
saw the chase said 1t was wonderful what
speed the fox could make, although thus
disabled. The poor fellow has probably had
to devise many cunning trick and use his
wits to the utmost to prevent being caught
by the many packs Of hounds that have
been hunting around here during the fall
and winter.
