brunette to go in for a white duck wheel rig, whether she rides or not For that matter, wheel suits are used now with little reference to whether the wearer rides or not 1t Is the accepted outing costume. The skirt Is short of the ankles, the boomers beneath are of lightweight material, and in case the costume is white the boomers are white linen and strap with a silver buckle just below the knee. The idea that one must not have white under wheel skirt is now discarded, and women wear white linen or silk bloomers under any wheel skirt. Much attention is paid to the bloomer buckles, and if women go on getting elaborate buckles for that little strap below the knee the header off the wheel will be welcomed as a longed-for chance to show the world a pretty pair of buckles.
 White will be abundant, too, in other dresses than those designed for exer- else and outings. This picture shows model gown that was in white cash. mere, square yoke and collar being blue cashmere ornamented with silk cord embroidery. Below the yoke the white goods was laid in two deep tucks; one side of the yoke Tapped over and, with the tucks, was ornamented with large blue buttons. Three very small puffs capped the sleeves, and metal belt clasped the waist. The skirt of this costume was plain but for dark blue band around the bottom.

L0CKJAW FOR THE SCoRCHER.

The ''scorcher" isn't easily scared, especially when he is in a region not frequented by policemen who can also scorch. But we take pleasure in help ing him to the knowledge that there is more danger in scorching than he has realized. Cyclists lockjaw is the lat est. It is incurred chiefly by scorch- CTS, who hold their mouths open when sailing along regardless of pedestrians or other Instructions. The microbe of tetanus, taking advantage of the open mouths, effects 8 lodgment therein, and then works his own sweet will upon the scorcher. In a few days the jaws are locked up tight, and the scorcher seorches no more.
 Possibly the fear of lockjaw will not greatly discourage the scorcher. Per- haps he would prefer to scorch to death rather than go in any less rapid or agreeable way Some who have been run into by him have felt that he not only ought to be scorched to death, but that scorching after death wouldn't be inappropriate.

A MANHATTAN ULTIUATTN

The latest letter addressed to the president
Of the Rapid Transit Commission by the presi-
dent Of the Manhattan Railway Company may
prove to be the last in a series Of unproductive
communications. 1t certainly seems calculated
to end all expectation Of an important develop
lnent Of the elevated railroad system in the
near future The company is now, it always
has been. willing TO carry ont It's own plans
on It's own terms but it positively refuses to
accept the scheme Of extension proposed by the
Commission and gives sign OF a disposition
to agree to any compromise which the public
or the Commission is likely to approve. The
letter signed by Mr.. Gould Is ingenious IN parts
and vigorous as q whole, and makes pretty in
teresting reading, largely because 1t IS 80 char
acteristic We do not recall any other single
eplstoary output of the Manhattan company
which so completely discloscs It's posture toward
this community and its conception of its place
in the order Of creation. lis managers have al
ways acted on the assumption thar the elevated
roads are chief among the uncovcnanted and
inestlmable mercles vouchsafed 70 the people Of
New-York. and ought to be continually rcmem-
bered in their prayers This attitude, main
tanned with teracity worthy Of a better cause
is sometimes amusing. sometimes cxasperating,
usually Doth. Everybody IS entitled 10 say JUST
how it affects him in the present instance.
There Is no need TO dwell on the contention
that irksOme delays In reaching an understand
ing as to what the Manhattan company could
and would do have been caused not by it, but
by the Rapid Transit Commission; for the com
plcte record Is not public property. and the
Commissioners are presumably able TO take
care Of their own reputation. Nor do we pro
pose TO discuss In detail the question Of suitable
recompense for new franchises. That Is n mat
ter for calculation from data accessible to the
Commission, which may have put the rentals
too high. but which is not destitute OF natural
capacity or expert knowledge as the Manhat-
tan management assumes There are however,
some features OF Mr.. Gouds letter on which
persons not directly engaged in the controversy
may venture to express an opinion.
In the first place. 1t Is interesting to observe
