IT will probably be attributed to the bicycle that the dreaded reform in horseback riding has at last arrived says the St. Louis Post-Dispatch Women have taken to riding astride, and this is not from any chance im- pulse of their own, but, says the pio- neers in the movement, from the con siction born of experience and the ad. vice of physicians and other health authorities who kEow whereof they speak. For primarily women have chosen 10 abandon the side saddle be- cause it is uncomfortable and unsat- islactory, and secondaTily because il is less healthful than the simple method which men lave long arrogat- ed to their own use.

UNDER the Mckinley law the duty on hat trimmings was DO per cent ad yalorem, the duty on somewhat similar line of dress trimminge was 90 per cent. Importers engaged in hand ling these commodities brought in dress trimmings inyoiced as hat trim mings, the government insisted on the higher duty and the case got into the courts. At lasta decision is made aud 1t is in favor of the government, sustaining the view of the custom officers. The amount involved Is about S20,00O, GOO or S2J.0oo, 900. No
 injustice has been done to the i'm porters. They have simply been made to pay for what they have brought into this country. The importers set out to cvade the tariff law and beat the government. and they have failed. Too often the decisions os the courts have been the other way.

Defective TOrpedOs Destroyed.

LONDON. Sept. 17.-For several days
visitors have been excluded from the
grounds of the WoOlwich arsenal, Ow-
ing to the fact that large force of en-
ployes has been engaged in destroying
some 400 ,orpedos, together with their
fittings ard which were recently con-
demed as a result of the reports made
to the lords of the admiralty. These
reports set forth that the movements
of the torpedos after firing was ex-
tremely erratic, and that on several
occasions they hsd come seriously near
blowing up the ship from which they
had been discharged. The missiles are
what are known as the Whitehead
patent, and designated in naval par
lance as marx I, star" and ''mark II,
two star" The approximate cost of
the torped"s was 81, 800 each, and hence
their condemn alton means the virtual
throwing overheard of round million
of dollars. A Bismingbam firm of am
munition manufacturers made an offer
to purchase the entire LOT at face value,
with a view to MAXI. G a resale to a for
eign nation whose name has not been
disclosed, but the lords of the admir-
ality decided tn 1t such sale would in
vo!ve the revealing to the naval de-
partment of such nation of the secret
mecha 1ism by which the balance
oh amber of these torpedoes are ar
ranged, and the offer was refused.
Hence the secret was regarded as
worth million of dollars.
