White muslin is twisted about its crown
and forms the strings.
With these high authorities for prece-
dent, the girls who so out to see the Co
lumbia wrestle for victory against the
Shamrock are not going to be aggressive
~ sporty. To read a move! on board the
observation boat is a pose that last year
would not have been considered, but this
. season it is expected to work we'll. The
move presupposes a willowy Tuscan hat,
crowned with LOUNGES and soft, fluffy
curls. The novel itself must not intro
duce a problem" 1t must be light and
clever, a peg upon which to hang con-
! versation, Notwithstanding old
fashioned, perhaps of the Jane Austin
period.
The girl who clings to the yachting cap
and the blouse waist and the other toys
Of a sailor, and who cannot forget what
| good fun it is to hold the wheel of her
| contrast. For after all there is nc rea-
| son why all girls should not be one glory
of the athlete and another of the fluffy
maid.
Some Of the smartest Of the new au-
tumn dresses are making their first ap-
pearances at breakfast and lunches on
yacht board. At a yachting picnic, as it
was called, this past week, a striking
| toilette was Of navy blue and white
| spotted wool, made up with bodice and
! tunic of plain blue. The bodice was of
unusual design. being covered with tiny
box plaits, while the throat was filled in
| with white mousseline.
More brilliant was a red crepe, very
thin and fine, scalloped wherever seal
lops We're possible, and edged with large
bindings of black silk braid. The neck
was filled in with stock and scarf of
| black gauze, below which came two or
| three little cape-like collars of red crepe
scattered over with black. The hat was
of sunburnt straw trimmed with wheat
and peoples.
1t does not appear from the dresses
now coming oven from Paris that the
eelskin skirt will figure much longer.
Panniers, draped skirts, hounces, pompa-
dour bows and pompadour colors are the
novelties fashion seems to be preparing.
. One of the most effective Of the new
dresses is of pastel blue cloth, with a
double tunic. edged with white embroid-
cry. The bodice has a white, embroid-
cred plastron and revers of white panne.
A scarf-like drapery of white mousseline
de sole passes around the sleeves, cross
ing on the bosom. and is carried to the
left side Of the waist, where it finishes in
a sash hanging from a strass buckle and
decorated with black silk fringed ends.
The colors that mark the autumn will
be pale gold, olive, gray, amber, Venetian
pink, which is a new and vivid rose color:
bronze, sky blue and a wilderness of dead
leaf tints lightened by rich reds and
orange. Of lace and embroidery there is
no end, and the new queen of dress fab
RIGS is velvet.

seemed to go bounding along like a ball.
Inc we heard it strike the wall. Some Of
the children, who had followed me, were
on the borders of Mysteries by this time. I
crept into the hall again, my revolver
in one hand and some matches in the
other, and toward the door of the next
room. 1t was moonlight, and as l peeped
through the keyhole I could see the room
suffused with light, but apparently there
was no one In it; yet there was the great
est scampering around you have ever
heard.
For a second continued the tenant.
I could not see distinctly, but when I
looked around the room there was no one
there: nothing to be seen but a ball, a
big rubber ball, a sort Of child's football,
resting in the middle of the floor. / was
dumbfounded: the windows We're locked
and there was no place in which to hide,
SO l finally backed out and went into my
boys room, and told the family that it
was the wind. But that didn't go, for as
l was telling them the ball went scurry-
ing across the floor and the phantom was
after it. Again l went out, and this time
l held the door open and tried to look in.
| waited some moments, but nothing APP
peared, and that was the last we heard of
it that night.
1.-The following night the same thing
occurred. so ! took the ball out and that
ended the noise again, but when l put
the ball back the ghost comes, and 1t has
made the family SO nervous that they
wish to leave the place

workman. L have been around the house
for two years and never heard that 1t

| can get way with any ghost that ever
walked, and if you will let me go up and
try tonight I'll guarantee to find out the
trOuble.'
$50 it was arranged: the man slept IN
the room whic the boy had occupied,
and the ball was replaced in the haunted
room. At II o'clock the man was heard
| to go up and the ball started to roll about.
The ranch hand crept to the door OF the
aext room very carefully and at first
made no attempt to open it; apparently
he was listening; then he slowly opened
the door, listened a moment, and closed
it. and went down the hall to where the
tenant was standing. DO you 10
i see the ghost?' he asked. Well, come on.
The tenant followed him, and after walt
ing for a few moments he saw, through
the crack of the partially opened door, d
little black animal suddenly appear, IN
a broad band OF moonlight, and, rising
up, strike at the ball with his fore paws,
sending it whirling about the f1oor. "A
kitten!' calculated the new tenant, IN a
whisper. No, a skunk, replied the man;
"a polecat-that's your ghost, and !
would be careful how you run in on MIN.
1t was true, and after some search a
small hole was discovered through Whlch
the animal had entered the room. where
it amused itself playing ball by the light
of the MOON"

time he was 80 he was by all odds the
most popular Astor that ever lived in
New York, for it must be confessed that.
though New York boasts of it's money, 1t
is not overfond of it's millionaires.
Mrs. Aston has lived very quietly. Sum-
mers she spends at Ferncliffe on the Hud-
son, the family home, where she eXer-
cises economy combined with good taste
and hospitality. She orders her house

on departing from the country house she
invariably leave a pile of sewing for the
maids to accomplish in her absence. Dur
ing this month she spends a few weeks
at Newport. at the home of her mother
in-laW; and in November she returns to
spend the winter at her Fifth avenue
house. She is the most prudent of the
beautiful women of the 400, and one OF
the most quietly elegant. Mrs. Astor IS
noted for being a fine shot: she is also
a record holder at sailing: she plays golf
like a professional and was booked to
give exhibitions at Ardsley last fall. but
withdrew at the last homer on account
of the crowds that gathered to see her
play, and she is noted for her smartness
in dress, which, mostly black, is modish
and elegant. Fit" is the word used to
describe her peculiarly neat appearance.
Mr.. Astor entered into public welfare
so heartily that it was no wonder to his
friends when he enlisted for active ser

This newspaper has been promising it.
self a treat for its readers in the shape
of an article by that splendidly equipped
young millionaire, John Jacob Aston. who.
in spite of his millions-or because of
them, perhaps-has been able to make al
xhaustiv study Of many topics which
are scarcely understood by men in gen.
eral.
Astronomy. for instance, has been a fad
with the studious man, n he is
today one of the best stronomerS of the
time. Music has also been a study with
him, and. We're he inclined, he could add a
valuable treatise to the musical library.
In the, arts mechanical he is past grand
master, understanding more about the
mechanism of the useful things of cleo
tricityi than any other man except the
Wizard Edison. and in many other things
is he no less gifted, one of these being
the knowledge of church characterization,
he having been closely connected with the
building and decorating of the new Epis-
copal. church at R~hinebeck, of which he is
a V~estryman.
But it was not upon these topics h a
this newspaper sought the work of Mr..
Aston, but upon a much deeper one, that
of the armament of a battery suitable to
go to the Philippines, in fact just such
a battery as Mr.. Aston equipped a year
ago and which did such excellent work at
Manila. Having done what no other one
man did. and having profited by the eX-
perience. MI. Astor woul be we'll fitted

battery and would be pr~e-eminently the

beers of the family went to the man who
was working on the place and asked if
there was anything peculiar about the
house. NO. the man replied; why do
you ask?' Well said the new tenant,
we didn't sleep much last night. We
went to bed early, and not long after my
boy came and knocked at my door and
said he heard some one trying to get in
the house. l crept out into the hall then
went all over the house, but l heard
nothing, so went back to bed. In a few
minutes my boy called to me, and said
that he had heard the noise again. BY
this time the whole household was
aroused. l went into the boys room, but
still heard nothing; then l put out the
light and sat dow to listen, and 1t wasn't
