little zouave coat just reaching to the
waist line. This opens over a vest Of
white melton, fastened down in front
by gilt studs set very close together.
This coat is trimmed with black tabular
braid and edged with a most effective
braiding done in dark brown and gold.
The skirt is quite plain, but is cut and
fitted SO perfectly that it hangs in the
most approved manner. The third COS
tune is carried out in melton and has
the skirt so delightfully."- arranged as
to give comfort and safety when on the
machine and a singularly graceful ap.
pearance when walking. The little coat
which is really the chief feature of the
suit is very smartly cut and finished
with a border consisting of two distinct
flaps of the blue cloth and a flap OF
white kid in the center. These flaps are
very prettily repeated ON the collar and
cuffs and both are edged with fine gold
braid. This exceedingly chic coat is
lined throughout with pale blue satin
and fastened in front with two large
gold buttons enameled in blue and
white.
As to the shirtwaists intended for
wear on the wheel their name is legion.
There are shirts in,silk, fine soft flannel,
in zephyr pique and cambria, to say
nothing of the ideal ones in madras with
silk stripes in pale green. coral pink
and turquoise blue, all of which will be
simply charming for warm weather
wea The rundown collar shows nc
sign Of losing favor, in fact, it's popu-
larity seems rather to wax than wane.
The woman who has the least regard
for good appearance when mounted on
her wheel cannot be too careful in Sc
lecting her headgear. The smartest
crowned by an unbecoming or unappro-
pirate hat, misses it's good effect, and
is in fact entirely wasted. Opinions diff.
fer widely as to what is really the proper
hat for the purpose, but in making q
selection there r two requisites that
should never be lost sight of. They are
suitability and becomingness, and GER
tainly the flower-bedecked hats affected
by some cyclists this. season do not come
under this head by any manner OF
means.
The latest cycling shoe shows a broad
toe with patent leather vamp and glace
kid top, fastened owe the instep by a
narrow strap and finished, of course,
with a corrugated rubber sole. This is
said to be ideally comfortable on the
foot, as well as being an attractive sight
on the pedal. This seasons cycling
boots are somewhat different from those
worn last summer. They are very high,
button straight up at the side. while
across the instep is a wide elastic web
bing so placed as to give perfect freedom
to the ankle when working the pedal.

HANNA.s OUTLOOK GLOOMY.
Democrats HAY Control the Next
Ohio LegfsInture.

Democrats May Control the Next
Ohio Legislature.
The recent municipal elections in
Ohio, resulting in democratic victories
everywhere, have rendered quite I'M
certain the complexion OF the legisla-
ture 20 be chosen in that state in No
Yember. Politicians of both parties
naturally ara discussing the situation
with deep interest, for it is to be re-
membered that the new legislature will
elect a successor to Senator Hanna 1t
is asserted by democrats and not denied
by republicans that the democratic pros-
pect Of carrying the legislature and
electing a senator have been considera-
bly, frightened by the test Of strength
shown in the Ohio city elections.
Two democrats have their we on the
s~enatorship. Both of them are rich,
ambitious and great hustlers, and
neither will stop to count the cost with
such a prize in view. These are ex-
Senator Briee and John r. Mclean, Of
the Cincinnati Enquirer. Both will
pitch in from this time on. In fact,
both did pitch in weeks ago. They and
all their friends are much encouraged
by the present situation.
Mark Hanna is desperately in earnest
in the endeavor to succeed himself,
and as his barrel is a good-sized one,
1t will be ON tap from now right along.
Hanna is almost always in a talkative
mood. just now he appears to have
relapsed into a thoughtful strain and
evinces mo eagerness to discuss the les
son of the spring elections in Ohio. It
is understood that the republican mayor
of Cleveland, just reelected, is a bitter
personal enemy Of Hanna and carries
his animosity so far as to prefer a dem
ocrat in the United States senate to
the friend of Mckinley. This gentleman
is said to control the organization of
the dense republican constituency of
which the city of Cleveland is the cen
ter. This means a fight against Hanna
in his own immediate household and
predicts the success of the democratic
legislative ticket in that political di-
vision. The republican boss of Gin
cinnati was washed out of sight in that
city, and it is scarcely anticipated that
he will emerge from the debris in con-
dition TO put up any kind of a fight
in November. The republican factional
discussions, together with the general
party discomfort so plainly visible,
produce a situation of corresponding
citation and depression in the demo-
cratic and republican ranks. It will
make the coming state campaign one
of the most lively interest, not only
locally, but nationally. The republic
an chances for picking up a senator in
another state, which might be named,
are fully Offset by the imminent pros
pect of dropping one in Ohio.-St. Louis
Republic.

THE SPRING ELECTIONS.
A Signal Protest Against the McKin-
ley Administration,

Local elections in off years are not
always indicative of popular opinion
ON broader questions of public policy,
but when they show a marked revul-
sion against the party victorious at the
last preceding general election, we
agree with the st. Louis Post-Dispatch
that it is difficult to overestimate their
significance and Importance.
And seldom has such a revulsion been
more marked than this year. It began
in the Connecticut town elections, was
emphasized in those of New York and
New Jersey, found an echo in Iowa,
and on Monday and Tuesday of this
week had its most significant express
sion in Ohio and Michigan, Wiscon-
sin and Illinois. The great republican
cities of Cincinnati and Detroit and
Chicago and Milwaukee have re-
versed, with tremendous democratic
~majorities, their verdict of last year.
Elsewhere in these states the reaction
is equally marked and equally signif-
can't.
And there is nothing of sectional poll
tics in this revolt against the party in
power. AS all sections have suffered
alike from the continued business de-
preston and the delayed prosperity
wave, so all sections voice the protest
against these conditions. Andi if repub-
lican faulty persists, as it is now per-
sisting, in forcing upon the country a
new bill of denominations for the pro-
lection Of trusts and the oppression of
the people, and if the democrats make
no mistakes and sacrifice nothing of
conviction to supposed expediency, Mr..
Mckinley will find, in the last two years
Of his term, a congress with 100 demo-
cratic majority on his hands.-Illinois
State Register.

Protection Not Favored In xaoExins
IeYsa Own state.

Protection Not Favored In MeEkfau
Iey'a own state.
There is some apprehension manifest
ed in the near west as to the poasihla
effect of the Dingley folly on the POLITE
ical fortunes Of Senator Marcus A. Hanv
ma, that distinguished gentleman who
rejoiced not long ago in the hattering
assurance that he was the whole thing,
but who, for some reason or other and
for some time past, has been hiding his
brilliant light under something. It
would be a great misfortune, Of course,
il Mr.. Hanna should come to grief po-
litically, and when his warm friends
contemplate the didoes that Ohio cut
up last week they are fam to be great
ly worried on his account. The Chicago
Tribune, a very stanch republicans pa
per, feels moved to say:
Senator Hanna's term expires IN March,
1893. It would be a misfortune If the next
legislature elected in Ohio should be con-
trolled by the, democrats, and leave Sena-
tor Hanna out in the cold. But there is no
telling what Ohio will do IL q tariff bill
is enacted whose duties weigh more heav-
lily on than those Of the law OF
1890"
In spite OF It's strong anu unsWeEtlh&
r~epublicanism the Tribune, which, by
the way, is a very able paper, IS orr
daily opposed to the Dingley folly.
1t notes that in certain sections, where
the tariff issue was forced, Mckinley
majoritieB were proportionally smaller
than in other sections, and it remarks
that "the tariff was not a winning card
last fall" and "it does not seem to have
been one this spring." It points to the
way Ohio voters went at the g. o. p.
and dashed it, in spite of the Dingley-
ties generosity to Ohio, they claiming
that the Buckeye state had received
especial consideration at their hands.
And so it goes. The Dingley folly is
challenging considerably more and
more severe condemnation than the Me-
Kinley folly challenged a few years
ago, with this difference, that republic
an denunciation of the latter was as
nothing to that which now scorches the
Dingley policy. The moral of all OF
which is that republican protection is a
good thing to put republicanism on the
shelf. Nothing is wholly bad.-Bing-
hamton IN. W Leader.
