i,Is While there is not very much need OF
variation In the styles of golhng toys,
the popularity Of the game, leading a.
It does IN outdoor sports for women,
makes the attempt to 4 originate new
ideas inevitable. The changes may be

your attention at all. But some little
difference serves to add interest to the
game a. we'll az to crafty woman's
ambition for new clothes, according to
the New York Sun, which notes the
following features:
The golf hat Of the season is a sensi.
BILE improvement on those worn before,
as 1t protects the face to some extent.
It IL In rough straw and of helmet
shape, bound on the edge with velvet
and trimmed with a soft scarf Of silk
twisted carefully around the crown.
Then there are the hats Of stitched
pique to wear with the white golf suits.
These are trimmed with the silk scarf
and feather pompons. The bamboo hat
IL the lightest and consequently coolest
variety and very pretty In its hight
cream tint. One point Of fashion In
hats which must be observed Is the alb
sence Of the stiff long Quill 80 promi-
nent last season. This is said to be en-
tirely out of fashion. the silk scarf be-
ing quite sufficient, but where other
trimming is desired the pompons or a
rosette Of ribbon Is the thing. I.
The short skirt Of last season was the
first cause Of the lack Of grace in this
costume, but the new edict calls for q
length which reaches to the top of the
ankles and Is vastly more becoming
than any skirt an inch shorter. Dou-
bic faced tweed which is plaid one side
and plain on the other is the most pop
ular material for the golf skirt and Is
finished with stitching and made with
either box plait or IN inverted plat
in the center Of the back. Gray, tan
and brown are the leading colors, and
Jackets Of bright red or green are worn.
Shirt waists In red and pink linen or

Of the golf outfit and are worn with

: New YORK Aug. 4.-John D. Grim
minis Of the syndicate formed to con-
etruct an interoceanio canal through
Nicaragua under the concessions given
by the government Of Nicaragua to
Edward Eyre and Edward, F. Oragin,
the existence Of which has been pro.
claimed by President Zelaya, said that
the company to construct. the canal,
organized under the laws of New Jer.
sey, would proceed to carry out the
terms Of it's contract without delay.
The capital needed has been secured,
and il the estimate Of cost made for this
government is correct the canal can be
built for the same money aud probably
for less. This estimate is about $780,
Co., Mr.. Crimmins said that the
company would prefer to have the gov
eminent leave the matter in the COM
pany's hands 40 as to permit q private
construction and operation Of the canal
for the benefit of the whole world.
However, be added, the syndicate had
no desire to embarrass the government
and would defer to it's conception Of
policy.
The route has not been selected and
the company has liberty to choose any
within the domain Of Nicaragua. That
preferred by this government would
certainly have preference. The proba-
bility ~is that the route will be that
hitherto called the Nicaraguan. Mr..
Crimmins said:
"Our concession is perpetual It
gives US the right to police the country
for 10 miles on either side Of the canal,
whereas in the Maritime company's
concession policing was to be done by
