THE NEW LACE GUnIPE AND THE
MITTEN SLEEVE.
TRIUMPHANT "CHOU AND ITS USES.

Correspondence Of the Dlspatch)

Correspondence Of the DIspatch)
NEW YORK. January 2S-Many of the
new evening and dinner gowns are cut
out over a lace guimpe, and have lace
sleeves to match, which are often 50 long
that they fall to the fingers; no gloves
are worn with them. and this permits the
wearing Of very handsome rings.
These new sleeves are coming very
much to the fore, and are becoming alike
TO plump and TO very slight arms. They
transform a simple gown into an elegant
one. and are one of the pretuest fancies
OF the fashions Of tomorrow.
Nothing is so acceptable TO a woman
of any age as n detail Of the toilette
which she can make herself, and which
will give a coquettish variety 10 her daily
apparel. The triumphant "chou,' or TO-

THE -FOUR-HOUR RACE
GIMM OF PITTSBURG WAS THE
VICTOR.
a Heart breaking Contest From the
Start and Ten OF the Riders
Dropped Out

New York, Jan. Louis Gimm of
Pittsburg, won the twenty-four-hou

tonight. There We're eighteen starters
and eight finished They were: Louis
Gimn, Pittsburg; Burns ". Pierce,
Boston: Charles Turville, Philadelphia;
Fredericks, Switzerland; John Lawson,
Chicago; Oscar julius, New York; 7.

Lawson, 449 miles, six laps; Julius, 43I
miles, six laps; Hale, 433 miles, four
laps; Miller, 422 milels, six laps.
l4imm was first by g wheels length;
Pierce second, Turville third, Freder-
icks fourth and Lawson fifth.
The record for the time is 457 miles
one lap. by Pierce. The attendance in
the garden at the close of the race was
10000. The finish was sensational. To
give the five men who had a chance to
win a free field, three of the other COM
retitors who had survived the struggle
were asked to retire from the track
fifteen minutes before the day had eX-
pired. When this was done John Law
son made a desperate effort to make up
the three laps separating him ira the
leaders. He succeeded in catching them
mapping and gained lap. He tried to
repeat it, but the others were after him
and he failed.
The race was heart breaking from
the start. F'redericks, Pierce, Turville
and Gimm never left their saddles for
a moment They even refused to take
nourishment and stimulantS when the
sprint was on.
