Coat Wni.tl..

WIN many coats there are waists Of
very elaborate material, brocades OF The
richest texture. satin and velvet, wrought
with embroidery. beads and passcmenterie
OF the most elaborate kind. There are sim.
Mated bolero fronts that are exceedingly
prebty and stylish. These are sometimes
quite as becoming to full figures as the
separate sections. One point, however.
must be noted. The best effect is secured
py narrowing the trimming TO very fine
point, or allowing Ut to cover the snace
from the sleeve to the waist line. Tho
former plan is much the prettier as it
gives slenderness to the form under the
arms.

Crane I. = Great Rhyme.trr.

Charles $. Crane. the generai passenger
agent OF the Wabash. is quite a poet and
has written many nice things. Recently
he read the poem on tho Music OF the
Wheels" written by u, H. Coylc for the
Baltimore Morning Herald. which runs a
follows
MUSIC or THE WHEELS.
When you're riding on this railroad
At n mile -a-niinute crack,
Do You ever note the rhythm
or the wheels Glong the track7
ls there any great composer
or sharps and fats and bars
Can equal In his cadcnces
Tho music OF the cars?
Whether dast,ing through the meadow,
Or the tunnels choklng CRIME.
You will never hear them falter
From the fncaeured ben, OF time,
Charging wildly mongst the mountains.
Or by the rivers bank
You Will always find them playing
Click clickety- click clank.
Every mir that has been written
Since the days OF wicked Cain
Finds III ana perfect setting
In the rhythm OF the train,
From opera 10 comic song,
From Patti down TO Cline.
You can hum all sorts OF ditties
while rushing down the line.
After reading the above. Mr.. Crane got
his typewriter In order. ana by scrcwins
up the poctical lever, ground off tho fol-
lowing:
It's too bad to spoil the story
Told In cadence sentimental "
But It's not no on the Wabash s1,
with its famous Continental"
n you are about to travei
Please note the following points.
The Wabash track is perfect,
And YOU can not count the Joints.
In it's wheels tbes,e Ia no music.
Al nilc-a-mInuta gait;
And OF course there rs no rhythm
On a track that's aip-to-da
There Is no measured beat OF time,
in fact N cent be measured,
We beat our rivals every time,
A fact that should be treasured

THE HOUSE OF LORDS
The Army and Navy of China to Be
ReorCauizad

LONDON, June 17.-In the house of lords
today, the Marquis of Salisbury, replying
to Lord Conemara. Conservative, former
under secretary of state for foreign affairs,
said her majesty's government was COM
municating with the Chinese government
respecting the reorganization of the army
and navy of China. The premier added
that the negotiations respecting the navy
reorganization were more advanced and
there was every hope that distinguished
British officer would make arrangements
with the Chinese government whereby he
would renew his help to renew the Chinese
navy.
China, the marquis continued, had shown
her willingness to accept British assist
ance, the difficulty lying in her reluctance
to give a sufficiently Independent position
to the officers to enable them to overcome
the traditional and deep-seated evils.
In conclusion the premier said: I'VE do
not anticipate catastrophe. yet there can
be but one end and issue of the present
trend of events, SO far as the Chinese en-
pire is concerned, unless the army and navy
are developed on lines involving entire re-

A FAIRY STORY
AN ENGLISH REPORTER SAYS
HAVANA Is HAPPY
Plenty to Eat and Drink, Bands Play.
ing and General Holiday-only
aDozen Beggars

KINGSTON, Jamaica, June T.-(Special
to Herald.) "Phil' Robinson, the English
war correspondent, who, with H. c. Whig-
am, the golf player. escaped from Key West
and in an open boat ran the Cuban blockade
at Matanzas, cables his paper concerning
the situation in Cuba. The defenses Of
Matanzas have been greatly strengthened
Of late. The eagerness Of the ignorant
Spanish officers for battle is quite pathetic,
but It is in effect that at present they mean
to fight to the death. At Matanzas a week
ago there was no sign of starvation. AS
seen week ago it would be impossible for
stranger to imagine Havana was starving
or that the city was blockaded. The band
was playing on the parade and a merry
crowd was promenading. Every seat in the
cafes was filled and the theaters, consider
ing the fact that not woman was present,
had good houses nightly. The hotels and
shops were charging their usual prices and
we only saw dozen professional beggars.
When the blockading vessels are sighted
daily great crowds would rush off to the
shore. Every available cab was engaged to
take the people to the beach, where they
spent their time in jeering the Yankees and
daring them to come within reach of the
Spanish guns. Then they would return
home, chattering and laughing as though
the blockading of the city were comic op-
era.
Captain General Blanco recently issued
several socialistic orders limiting the price
Of staples, reducing rent so per cent and
abolishing payment of interest on loans and
mortgages, hoping thereby to enable the
poorer classes, who are chiefly Cubans, to
