HAIL 70 AUTOMOBILE GIRL.
woman's Latest Hot Weather Accom-
plishment.

The summer girl of this season is the
automobile GIRL
Twenty years ago the summer girl went
in for croquet. Then came a short spell
of archery. Then there was a rage for
tennis. Then came the bicycle, followed
BY golf, which has had steady and some
what remarkable growth in popularity
Now it is golf-and the automobile.
When not engaged at golf this summer
you will find the typical girl off some
where on her auto" She has set out to
solve the mysteries of this new vehicle
and you may be sure that she will sue
coed, for the average American girl is
both curious and persistent 1t has been
said that the automobile is not a fad, yet
in a social sense it is, and, what is more,
it is a Partisan fad. The French are far
ahead of us in the manufacture of auto
mobiles, and the latest fashions in self
propelling carriages emanate from the
French capital. 4M
1t is a very expensive luxury, this fash
ionable automobile, involving an expen-
diture of several thousand dollars. Per-
haps that is why the summer girl de luxe
has adopted it. Her handsome electric
victoria with Its flaming red broadcloth
Innings and silver trappings will cost more
than the interest on her pas latest in
vestment in dividend-paying securities.
And her victoria is but one Of the auto
mobiles she Will own II Sne Is a young
person of wealth and fashion.
The gorgeous gowns she will wear when
managing levers and brakes and pedals
and buttons will be equally as elaborate
al her ball gowns; for the automoDiie girl

scarlet and white. The automobiles will
revolutionize dress at Newport this sum-
mer. For the first time in years pictur-
esque. fluffy Paris riding costumes will

tailor styles. The scarlet toilet will push
the tan covert to the wall. 1t will double
the cost of the summer girls wardrobe.
Even among Newport millionaires. there
fore automobiles will not be distributed
broadcast without few minutes deliber-
ation
Among the happy possessors of these
new machines is Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish,
Mrs. Hermann Oelrichs. Mrs. Harry
Payne Whitney, the Misses Gerry and
young Mrs. Willie X. Vanderbilt jr.
But the automobile is more than play
thing. 1t is a powerful factor in society.
1t has not only revolutionized dress for
riding, but there is already a demand for
automobile jewelry. In gold and silver
and gun metal the tiny electric cab. run
about and victoria are reproduced for
scarf pins, watch charms, buckles and
lockets.
Automobile red will be the most fashion
able color for the summer season. Auto
mobile parties will be the most fashion,
able diversion at the -seashore and at
mountain resorts where the roads are
good.
AS to the machines themselves. they cost
anywhere from 81, 500 to $1,000, and as
much more as you care to spend in the
way of gorgeous decoration. A very
handsome runabout or victoria, however,
may be obtained for 81 500, and when it
is considered that the new machine may
be operated without the expense of horses
and livery charges, the cost is not SO
great after all

Para. Brazil, May 5.--"Perfection,"
one spontaneously calculates as in the
course of the early evening the little
boat gracefully glides over the placid
harbor. How bewitching to be thus
quietly sailing, inhaling the heavy per-
fume of the Towering trees and shrub
berry and floating in delicate watts
from the hillside. while the big full
moon steals quietly from behind the
city, showing the domes and talest
buildings black and shadowy, then
flooding the city and harbor with her
broard mellow light To the north
the dipper and to the south the cross
stand as double guides, while from the
east a touch of mellowness from
twinkling Venus streaks the rippled
surface. On shore the many rows of
gas lights, as they reach high above
each other like stairways of light, sput-
ter and gurgle and wink to the riding
lights of the many ships in the harbor
as if competing for brilliancy. Still
ness reigns, except directly ahead,
where the long swinging swash of the
flood tide breakers beats against the
quay. And, family audible. is the dis
tant rattle and clatter of conveyances

fused by the din of many CANNES

half stirring, brilliant atmosphere
hangs most charmingly.
AS I near the dock sweet strains of
music from the English club house
band or from piano delights the ear,
and here recur pleasing remembrances
of some afternoons stroll when at al
most every door musical fairyland
seemed enthroned.
The tropical inha bitant is passionate
ly fond of music. Each family that can
possibly afford it has piano and the
daughters learn to play splendidly. 1t
is not at all uncommon to come face to
face with six natives Juggling a piano,

keeps time to the swing of the bar over
their shoulders. When one shoulder
is tired they turn in on themselves.

They all stand on the Chicago platform
and are declared supporters of Bryan
for the nomination. One of the bright
est of the last delegation, Robert e.
Mattingly, has already circularzed the
city in support of his canvass for dele
gate. While the others have not gone
to this extreme, they are all receptive
candidates, and several of them are
quite aggressive. This district will
choose its delegates some time in Feb
ruary next, and they will presumably
be the first selected to next years col-
vention. 1t goes without saying that
the delegation will be solid for Bryan,
free silver and the Chicago platform,
as it was in 1896.
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Spaulding has received letter from
Collector of Customs David G. Browne
of Great Falls regarding the free entry
of teams of immigrants and household
effects, and inquiring whether the
horses and cattle brought by immi-
grants and admitted free of duty are
to be limited to any definite number of
each. In reply General Spaulding says:
You state that bona fide settlers in
duty into that country Is head of cat
tie, and that applications have been
made to you for definite ruling as to
the privilege in this regard accorded to
settlers or immigrants coming to the
United States. / have to state that
such animals, without regard to num-
bers, as are in actual use for the put
poses of immigration are emitted to
free entry, there being no general pro-
vision of law for the free entry Ct i'm

Household effects. which include
horses and carriages used in the house
hold economy, and not those used in
farming or agriculture, are entitled to
free entry. This would exclude cows,
pigs, dogs, ETC., and also oxen not ac-
tually used for the purposes OF inmt-
grafton, the department having dec d ed
that there is no provision of law. for
the free entry of animals imported by
immigrants other than those used IN
the transportation of themselves and
families The number of horses and
carriages to be admitted free as house
hold effects would depend upon the
station in life of the owner. Provision
is found for the free entry of too's OF

steaks and outlets. A correspondent in
