New YORK CRY (Special). For out
ing hats there are felts, but there are
more stitched taffetas, with soft
crowns and high brims. For the BIZ
cycle and for golfng, there are khaki
hats in yeoman and trooper shapes,
some of which have the regulation
chin strap, which, however, is fast
ened around the hair behind. For
such headgear bands of khaki colored
puggaree muslin are the usual trim
ming, with punches of cocks feathers
Or dropping pheasant's plumes, which
have replaced last summers stiff
eagles quilts.
The sailor hat hobs up serenely; it
is little changed in shape, though
occasionally it has an absurdiy high

A Forecast of Summer Styles.

Red foulards and challies promise
to be even more popular this summer
than the blues that have so long held
their own. The model shown in the
large engraving reproduced from the |
New York Sun represents frock IN
figured red foulard. The long, plain
skirt falls in ample fields and has an
overtunic with pointed tablier front.
The tunic is edged all round with Il
broad band of white Cluny lace. A
broad godet plat headed by long
narrow lace insertion raises this tunic
ut either side. The bolero is in red
velvet yelled with old guIpure that ex-
tends upon the shoulders so as to
form Jockey sleeves. At one side
droops lace lapel over which the
bolero fastens with single big but
ton. The sleeves have cuff CORE
spending to the ''jockey-sleeve" at
the shoulder. Red velvet forms the
folded belt. The underblouse, OF
black silk muslin over green silk, is
in artistic contrast to the red of the
velvet and silk. Small tabs of red
velvet finish the stock in the back.
, At the throat is bow in white tulle.
The hat is in red chip faced with pink
| muslin and edged with black velvet
It's trimming consists Of large triple
loopei bow in black velvet ribbon
! with border in pink. A red velvet
chou holds this bow in place and more
choux appear beneath the brim at one
side.
| An absolute novelty in street suits
is also shown in the large picture. II
demonstrates two things-the growing
fancifulness of the tailor made tot
lette, and the overpowering popular
ity of the lace jacket. The suit is o
pale mauve cloth and has a very
short, single breasted, basqued Goa
buttoned snugly down the middle o
the front. Over the corsage and TIL
sleeves Of this coat is the lace JACKIE
in ecru guipure. The lapels are il
white satin, hand painted with violet
and with a narrow edging in blacl
velvet. A broad, fiat collar OF thu
cloth forms an effective background t
! these lapels. Round the hips an
again little distance above the hen
the skirt is banded with many rows
stitching. A cravat of white chiffo
finishes the throat, while the hat is
mauve straw faced with black chiffon
and trimmed with white and blac
| chiffon. At one side of the brin
against the wearer's hair, rests mas
of shaded mauve roses.

ShirriDg Revived.

A great deal of shirring is done on
the lighter gowns. Cashmeres and
veilings this season are often shirred
about the waist to represent corse-

redingote style, the shirring done be-
low as we'll as above the waist line.
In organizes and lawns entire fronts
are SHRED, while shirred Jokes OF

very fond of all kinds of live stock, it

Where Tommy Atkins Gets His Name.

Every British reader should know
the origin of the sobriquet '"Tommy

name of sentry who, when the Euro
peans in Lucknow were flying for the
Residency, from the mutineers, re-
fused to leave his post, and so per-
ished. After that it became the fash

wish to say few words regarding
the Institute that will be held on the IA,
10 and l6 of this month. First, let me say
the committee has faithfully performed
It's duty in securing help from abroad,
thus insuring that it will be one of the
best Institutes ever held in Audubon
county, if not in the state. Geo. Van
Houten, of Lenox, will be here on the
IA. He is man that is well qualified
and posted upon all lines of advanced
farming and fruit growing and is secre.
tary Of the State Agricultural Society
His lecture on the Orient and Occi-
dent" which will be given Wednesday
night will surely be grand, as he is a
very able speaker and has Travelled in
this different countries and is very close
erver.
The second day the state dairy CON-
Issioner will be here and talk to the
institute, which will surely interest at
his time Of so much dairy and creamery
talk, giving facts concerning the magni-
Jude of the dairy and creamery in dustry.
On the 10th, the last day, Gov. Shaw
las promised to be with the people of
Audubon county and talk to the Insti-
tute, which will without doubt be worth
hearing by every farmer in the county.
With the help of such valuable men
.ogether with the papers that will be
read and the discussions of some of our
best farmers Of the county surely it can
- fail to be something worth while for
ry farmer to arrrnge his business so
% be present, whether he be land
ner or renter. Let each and every
help to make it interesting Those
lat are upon the program for papers
should be on hand promptly. The com
mittee has instructed the officers to have
the different subjects heard at the hour
designated for them and in so doing it
will be necessary for each one to be on
hand promptly that nothing may drag.

Popularity of Snakes.

A snake tanner who had trained a
serpent to follow him around the house
and even out of doors happened one
day to take it with him to a strange
place. The snake, unused to the local
ity, suddenly seemed to forget all his
training and, escaping into the bushes,
resisted capture with bites and every
indication of wildness. When caught,
it at once resumed its tame habits.
This tendency to become wild imme-
diately upon obtaining their freedom
and to again become tame when caught
is said to be popularity of snakes

Strange Freak of Fate.

p Says the Portland Oregonian: 1T is
the belief of some historians that the
name Oregon is Aragon in disguise,
that it was given to this country by
the early Spanish voyagers and that
American explorers so interpreted the
word given them by the Indians. The
theory is a. least plausible and indi-
Gates a strange freak of fate. The
name Spain proudly brought to this
distant coast returned to the West In
dies 300 years later to destroy the
power of Spain on the seas! Little
thought De Fuca when he sighted this
coast in 1892 that some day it would
build warship which, under the name
Of Aragon, or Oregon, would be fore
most in the battle that marked the end
of SPANS dominion in the new world"
