LIVELY BUDAPEST.

Budapest, as everybody knows, is
formed of two cities separated by the
Danube and Joined together like New
York and Brooklyn by great bridges.
Buda Is city hundreds of years old
and rises on a great hill covered with
yellow houses with red-tiled roofs, and
surmounted by fortresses and ancient
German-looking castles, and the palace
of the king, with terraces of marble and
green gardens running down to meet
the river 1t is still picturesque, for
titled city of the middle ages.
Pesth, just across the way, Is the
most modern city of Europe; more
modern than Paris, better paved and
better lighted, with better facilities for
rapid transit than New York, and with
houses of parliament as massive and
impressive as those on the banks of the
Thames, and not unlike them in APP
pearance. Pesth is the Yankee city
of the old world, Just as the Hun
garians are called the Americans of
Europe 1t has grown in forty years,
and it has sacrificed neither beauty of
space nor line in growing. 1t has mag
nificent public gardens, as well as a
complete fire department; it has the
best club in the world the Park club;
and it has found time to put electric
tramways under ground and to rear
monuments to poets, orators and pat
riots above ground. People in Vienna
and Berlin tell you that some day all
of these things will disappear and go
to pieces; that Pesth is enjoying a
boom and that the boom will pass
and leave only the buildings and cleo
trio plants and the car tracks, with
no money in the treasury to make the
wheels go, round l do not know
whether this is or is not to be, but let
US hope it is only the envy and I'M
charitableness of the Austrian and
German mind that sees nothing in pro-
gress but disaster and makes advance
ment spell ruin. People who live in a
city where one is asked to show a
passport permit and a residence card
in order to be allowed to mount d
bicycle, as / was asked to do In Berlin,
can hardly be expected to look with
favor on their restless, ambitious young
neighbors of the Balkans. Scribner's

have been looking The last few days
at some designs, or rather some cos
| tunes, for the bicycles girl, and out of
all that 1 have seen 1 have selected
three to write something about. The
first is made of black land white shep-
herds plaid cloth, very light and fine.
the skirt trimmed with five broad bands
of black braid which commences lust
below the hips and finishes at the rear
at the knees. The braid plays an i'm
portant part, too, in the adornment of
the bolero bodice, being arranged in
military fashion in front with barrel
buttons, while it does duty in mar
rover form as a bordering The cos
tune is completed by full killed vest
of white crinkled silk, softly ruffled
at the neck and held in at the waist
by a band and bow Of black satin,
while the sleeves are distinguished by
quantity shaped cuffs trimmed with
braid and softened by frilling Of silk.
1t seemed to me that such a suit as
this would be always smart and very
durable, as bicycle suits go.
The second costume was built in cloth
of the fashionable shade of mauve,
lines of white and gold braid terminal
ing in graceful scrolls outlining the side
seams of the skirt and figuring with
distinction on the bolero bodice, the
sleeves and the epaulettes in company
with an edging of black gallon. The
full front was a charming affair of
white chiffon and terminates at the an
kles.
The third costume was Of dark mauve
cloth, with collar, revers and cuffs of
violet edged with a fine fancy braid in
violet and gold. The little Elton coat
which, by the way, boasts of silk
lining-is turned back with very dainty
buttons in gold and steel, touched here
and there with blue enamel. When the
weather demands extra warmth and
protection it can be fastened across in
double-breasted fashion. All the cy-
cling costumes described can also be
used for walking, thanks to the clever
ness of the up-to-date[@ methods of the
purveyors of tailor77made affairs.
Flowers are in # evidence in new
fashion, observe, and1are largely used

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, July 49,
Early morning devotional services were

Gay in connection with the convention
of the Baptist Young Peoples Union
OF America. At 1 o'clock the pulpits
of the city were filled by the visiting
leading Baptist church of the city, Rev.
j. w. Conley, D. D., of ST. Paul, Mimi,
preached an eloquent sermon. to a very
large audience, his text being Acts

Six hundred dollars was subscribed

Resolutions were adopted expressing
grateful thanks that the debt of $685.
600 of the American Baptist Foreign
Mission society had been raised, and
expressing the qualification of all Bap-

United States was united through the

Tonight's services closed the regular
convention proceedings, though several
rallies will be he'd tomorrow, and a
service will be held at Snodgrass hill
in the national park, at which patriotic
addresses and songs will be mingled
with the religious exercises.

ment of loyalty.
The military branch of the order is the
best organized of any organization attached
to any secret society, and it numbers three
men for every one in the regular army Of the
United States. 1t is recognized fraternally
by the government departments and orders
from the war department and the headquarters
of the army are interchanged with those from

The next supreme lodge meeting of the
Knights of Pythias will be held at Ind!anap-
Oils in 1898, and with it will be held the BIZ
ennial encampment of the Uniform Rank. In
the words of Mr.. Colgrove, This will be the
largest demonstration ever made in this coun-
try or any other country by any secret order, -
1t being the twentieth anniversary of the BIZ
ennial sessions of the supreme lodge. 1t
is expected that there will be present all
the way from 1901 600 to 100000 members OF
the order, besides great many others. The
grand lodge of Indiana has appropriated $15, 00C
for the entertainment of the visitors, and the
Commercial club and other bodies have appro-
priated $4,000 more, which indicates what
kind of an affair it is destined to be. The
military branch will be in camp, like that
held in this city last summer, and it will be
a great gathering.
Gen. R. o. Philpot, Of Owatonna, the head
of the Minnesota brigade, is expected to join
the party at Grafton, N. D., and aid in pay
ing fraternal visit to the knights of Pythias
of North Dakota.

he will attend the grand council of North Da-

Talking about the Pythan order. Supreme
Chancellor Colgrove said that no fraternaI or
der in America is in a more vigorous or bet
ter general condition than the Knights of
Pythias today. The order numbers half mil
hon of the best men of the North American
continent In the province Of Manitoba there
are 5000 members; Ohio has 81, 000 and Min
nesota 5000 members in good standing. The
knights of Pythias is the only order which

mauve and yellow. The yoke was of
transparent lace inserted cleverly in
a very original bodice of white benga-
line, While the coloring of the en-
broldery was prettily repeated in the
WaiStband.
The last of the notable gowns I
noticed was of dove gray MORE with
a zigzag satin design upon it. The
skirt was finished with a lace inser-
t'on at the hem and the bodice, of
bolero shape, was Of lace over white
opening on a soft front of white
silken muslin and lace. There was a
little puffed edgings of gray chiffon
and white folded collar. A fawn
colored satin straw bonnet trimmed
With black velvet and tea roses was
worn with this costume, having a
nigh black and white rosette at one
side.
1t is the superstition that there are
brides at all times Of year, and that
is why l suppose that there is such
an lncessant lookout kept in their be-
half to secure something new The
very newest idea this season is to
use silk Maltese lace as trimming for
the wedding dress. 1t is very charm
ing in wonderful shades Of ivory and
cream. Furthermore it is very popu-
lar. and [ think we might very easily
say this year that not only happy is
the bride the sun shines on, but happy
Is tie bride whose gown is trimmed with
silk Maltese lace.
Some one was telling me the other
day that 1 ought to write more about
What the summer girl wore. Did you
ever hear anything so ridiculous? was
the bona fide summer girl ever known
to wear anything but white, unless it
was bathing suit or a bicycle cos
tune? Certainly not. She wears to-
day what she did yesterday and what
she Will wear tomorrow. If only we
could all be summer girls. But then
we can't, and really. for one, don't
feel like crying about 1t.

Near Sixth avenue south he met a stranger
who invited him to have a glass OF beer.
Cook recprocated the favor, and the stranger
kindly inquired about Cooks home, business,

and see the city. This he consented TO do,
and the pair strolled along towards Elliot

park a stranger stopped them and asked Tor

friend pulled out a lock and offered to bet
the second stranger that he could not open
