HAD HER HANDS FULL.
Discomforts of q Woman Who Wore a
Long Skirt at the Seaside.

One would imagine that every woman in
the world intending to vsi. the seashore
would leave her long, trailing skirts at
home. for If there is one thing that makes
a woman look more ridiculous than an
other 1t is to see her toiling over the sands
with her hands full and Vainly trying to
keep her skirts from trailing. One woman
at Narragansett received good practical
illustration of the discomfort of the long
skirt this summer She had been invited
from one small summer resort to another
to luncheon. When she left home the
weather promised to be cool, and to make
herself presentable for the visit she dis
earded her wash waists for a lined silk
one and put on a wooden skirt of the
fashionable length. OF course she must
take her purse, a wrap-for near the
water it Is sometimes very cool at night
and a parasol. This was not unsatisfac-
tory up to the time luncheon was served
and after. Then one of the hostesses pro-
posed a walk to entertain her guests. or
course they must see the water and the
views from the beach OF course in a pic
turesque summer resort the fewer the
cares the better, and then it is so much
better to see the country when walking
1t was only a mile and "A half anyway to
the best spot for seeing the view, and
that Is nothing for the summer girl But
It was great deal for the woman in the
long SKlrI ana warm waist. one udu beeii
obliged to take her wraps, for she was
not to return to the house again. Over
the sands in the hot sun she trudged, al
most melted, her arms full of bundles,
holding up the long heavy skirt. and un-
able to put up her parasol. If ever a
woman suffered more from anything not
serious that particular woman would like
to know when. She has almost feeling
of terror every time she looks at that
long skirt now. 1t represents to her an
instrument of torture. That on the walk
to the beautiful view she lost a good glove
does not give her a more comfortable
feeling about it.

London, Sept. 20.-Captain Alfred
Dreyfus at 8 o'clock this morning left
prison here in which he had been con-
fined since his return from Devils ISL
and, and proceeded to Warn, where he
took the train bound for Nantes. His
departure was completely unnoticed. NJ.
Viguie chief of the secret service, and
M. Dureault arrived at the prison after
midnight. bringing the minister of
wars order for the release of Dreyfus.
The latter walked from the prison to
the Boulevard la Enne, where he en-
tered a waiting carriage and was driv-
en- to Warn station, outside the town.
Matthew Dreyfus met him at the train
and accompanied him to Nantes. While
this dramatic turn in the Dreyfus
drama was taking place. all Rennes
slept, and the departure of the famous
prisoner of DEVILS island was no more
noticed than that of an ordinary trav-
eler.
The carriage which was then wait
ing was the same vehicle which took
Dreyfus to his prison when he return
ed from Devils island. Dreyfus got
in opposite the house where Maitre La
bori had stayed previous to the at
tempt upon his life and alighted about
500 yards from the station and walked
in regardless of the driZZling rain.
The Nantes train came in just as
he arrived. Alfred and Matthew Drey-
fus quickly took their seats and the
train went out of Rennes bearing Drey'

furnished the music Streets car and
other traffic was suspended along the
line of march and the police kept the
crowd of spectators well back on the
sidewalks.
Brigadier General Martin commander
of the Michigan department of the pa
triarch militant, led 100 members of the
military branch of Odd Fellowship and
all were in full uniform. carrying drawn
swords. Their perfect marching, ex-

CALLED HIM AN ASSASSIN
Ramapo Counsel Takes a Fling
at Moss.
PROBING THE SCANDAL
Cannot Get the Names OF the Stock
holders-The Company's Engineer
Could Not Be Found by
the Officers.

New York, Sept. 2O.-The assembly
committee investigating the manage
ment of the departments of the mu-
nicipal government devoted itself TO-
day to further inquiry regarding the
status of the Ramapo Water company,
which had proposed to enter into a
5000, 900, 900 contract with the city.
H. C. M. Ingraham of counsel for the
company was the first witness. He had
drawn the contract for submission to
the board of public improvement, but
he pointed out several material differ
ences between that paper and the con-
tract which would be placed before the
board by Corporation Counsel Whalen.
Witness could not give the names of
stockholders in the Ramapo company.
That company, witness said, could fill
all the conditions of its proposed con-
tract and begin the delivering Of water
in 1908. He was asked to produce Mr..
Nostrand, the company's engineer, but
replied:
He is not in my pocket he is not
where 1 can produce him. To introduce
any Of my friends here to Mr.. Moss
would be like introducing them to an
assassin
Mr.. Moss. counsel for the committee,
took possession of the contracts and
other documents which Mr.. Ingranam
had brought with him.
General c. H. j. Coils, formerly COM
missioner of public works Of New York
city, said he had been approached
while in office regarding the subject
of the city's water supply. The man
who came to him on this errand urged
that the Ramapo company controlled
the only available supply, but the Wit
ness had replied that at that very
time there was stored in New York
reservoirs 36,000 000, 900 gallons of water.
General Comp also testified that dur
ing the Strong administration the as
phalt paving contracts had been SO al
tered to do away with the monopoly
which one concern had enjoyed
George III. Hammond, the commit
tees subpoena server, said that he had
number of men looking for Engi-
neer Nostrand and Secretary Lamont
of the Ramapo company for the last
two weeks, but in vain.
At the afternoon session Corporation
Counsel Whalen failed to appear when
his name was called. Mr.. Moss turned
from the Ramapo matter to the let
ting of city contracts without bids and
the purchase of supplies from favor
ed dealers, but the information obtain
ed was not important. Several wit
nesses were examined and the commit
tee adjourned until tomorrow.
