HIGH JINKS AT BATH BEACH.
Some of the residents of Bath Beach
and Bensonhurst, New York, are
shocked at the doiDgs of others, it
cluding members of the summer colony,
who make common practice these
warm days of paradiDg about the
streets in bathing suits. The costume s
woi by some Of the batbers are rather
gaudy aud scant. Women who wear
,hem miugie with men in similar st-
tire aud cut up capers that cause their
neighbors 10 blush. Many of the wO.
men who put on bathing suits seldom
enter the water, it Is said. Wednesday
afternoon several young women in
hashy bathing suits were seen spinning
along On their bicycles in Cropsey ave
uue and two others were noticed In o
light wagon. A dozen or more women
were also seen frolicklng about Benson.
horst Park. The women as rule put
on the bathing suits at home or 10
boarding houses and many Of them
walk about uotil after nightfall.
A Brooklyn magistrate. who lived in
Bensonburst for some lime, said last
night: "The scents enacted by these
women and their parsding around il.
bathing costumes are becoming so com
mon that | would not be surprised t.
see all seu bance Of decency left behind
10 ths city wheL the summer
colony comes TO Bath Beach and Ben
sonhurst. Tbeir actions are disgrace
ful."
A resident, whose home is opposite
Beusonhurst Park, said: "'Che VIC
men here t1is summer are acting in a
way that would make them blush
were they to do the same thing in the
city. They seem to have lost all
modesty. Matters have reached such
state that ii is unfit for my wife and
daughter to walk through the streets.
IL is impossible now even TO enjoy the
comforts of our piazza"
Other residents say that the bathing
suit women drink cocktails from morn.
ing till midnight, aud tnat many of
them have the hign-kicking habit.

STEEP STORIES FROM THE
ORIENT.

A remarkable story was brought to
Vancouver, B. c., by the steamer Em'
press of Japan recently to the effect
that a number Of Russian ex-officers
and privates from Siberia had joined
the ranks OF the boxers, and that, hav-
lng reason 10 suspect the fidelity Of
their Chinese transport coolies, the
Russians had killed 200 OF the Chinese
and then loaded their bodies into D
Junk which they set on fire and sci
drifting down the Pei Ho. The story
is published with a number Of corrobC-
rative details 10 several Oriental pa.
pers.
Many Chinese now aver that Prince
Tuan, the rebel esder, is not a men,
Der of the im ,,erial clan at all. He IL
supposed to be the son of the fifth
Prince Tusn, but it is alleged that ht
ls a supposittious son, his mother be-
ing a nurse in Prince Tuan's family.
By collusion with Prince Tuan's wife
the child who is now Prince Tuan wa,
introduced as the Princess's SOC.
Arrivals from TienIsln by the steam(
Empress of Japan say that Seeberg, an
American, of Tieutsin, essayed to carry
dispatches through to Tong Ku. he
went down in customs launch whlcb
was ambushed, and he and seven blue
Jackets " ere chased across country up
til thew reached the Russian camp.
An American officer OF Seymour's CO.
lum is reported to have stated on his
return to TieDtsin that there was more
arms and ammunition OF war in Hsi klu
arenal, captured by Seymour, than III
the whole of the United States.
According to news received by the
Empress one European who was serv-
ing the Chinese was killed in the recent
fishting at Tlentis D., and two men, sup
posed to be Frenchmen. have been TAX
en- prisoners by the allied forces.
