Col. James Bell, the man who Is
just now so much in the public eye
because be is close to the heels of
Aguinaldo in northern Luzon is one
of the biggest soldiers in the United
States army. He used to be stationed
at Fort Meyer, Va, and is known to
many Pittsburghers who have been in
the habit of taking trips to Washing
ton. Because of his height, feet 4
inches, he is known in the service as
Little Jamie Bell He is broad
shouldered fellow without an ounce OF
spare flesh on him. He is the coolest
man in an emergency that ever wore
spurs, and the troopers who have
served under him swear by him, and it
takes a good man to have the buck
soldier as worshiper Bell, when he
was captain, used to take great de-
light in having the men of his troop

which shows the good officer. Teach

first step in the drill. the young soldier
throws the pistol upward until the
muzZle points to the sky. Simultane-
ously he uses his thumb to cock the
pistol. On the command fire the pis-
tol is thrown forward toward the OBJ
ject, and the first finger, which is
curled around the trigger, is used to
fire with. This is always a hard thing
tor the new man to learn The i'm
pulse is, when throwing the pistol to
the perpendicular, to press both with
the thumb on the hammer and the first
finger on the trigger. In Bells troop
of the Sixth cavalry there was par
ticular dolt who could not master this.
AS often as he threw his pistol into the
upright position the bullet would go
skyward and it was empty when the
command was given to fire. Bell was
taking pains with the men, and espeG
cially with this soldier He laborious-

his finger on the trigger as he had been

whizzed past Bells head, taking the
button on the side of his cap with it.
Everybody thought the captain had
been shot. That officer stood immoy-

the soldier: IF you do that again I'll
have to put you in the guardhouse."

MUST RAISE THEIR SKIRTS.
Vienna Women Are REQUIRED by
Law to Observe Health; Rules.

There will be no bedraggled skirts upon
the women of Vienna after. the present
date if they observe the law. The local
council has directed all women frequent
ing the public parks and gardens to hold
up their skirts if they would otherwise
trail upon the ground The reason for
this measure is rather puerile. The no
t1ce states that these Enclosures are de-
voted to the recreation of persons de-
sirous Of escaping from the dusty town,
ana therefore the authorities object to
trailing skirts.
Even so far back as the reign of Ed
ward l: long trains wore de rigueur. This
Is what one OF the monks says: Il heard

HAS A woMAN's HEART.
Mrs. s'Timv Woodruff Acted as I'm
dcrtaker for a Strangers Funeral.

Rarely has awoman's kindness of heart
been shown SO forcibly as 1t was last week
at the camp where Lieut.. Gov. Timothy
l.. Woodruff and his wife were enjoying
an outing in the Adirondacks. Gov.
Woodruff received a message from Viii
liam w. Durant, of Camp Sycamore, ask
ing that the carpenter at the Woodruff
camp might make a coffin Tor a boy OF
sixteen in Mr.. Durant's employ who had
died suddenly of cholera. There was no
undertaken within many miles and the
carpenter at Sycamore was away.
The coffin was made of plain boards in
about an hour and half, but it seemed
50 boXlike that Mrs. Woodruff herself
stained and vanished it, making It look
less crude. Still she was. not satisfied
with It's appearance and locked for white
material TO line it, but could find none.
Nothing daunteG, she took white mus
lin gown OF hor own and draped 1t softly
INSIDE the casket. with a little lace
trimmed rufle 10 finish the edges, and in
this receptacle the boys body was sent
to his mQther in New York.
Mrs. Woodruff, ia relating the incident
to a friend, said that she had mover before
undertaken a task SO grewsome and de-
pressing.

even from the Occidental ro3ut of view,
which differs so materially regarding the
beauty of women from THAI OF the Ori-

seftness for which the Japanese women
are famous, her eyes are large and ex-
plessive, and her wealth Of glossy black
hair is worn in the prevailing style,
brushed back from a pretty brow. But
the most attractive feature Nine. Taxa

WINTER SKIRTS.
Prevailing Mode of Finishing VIII
Inverted ROx-Pleat.

The prevailing mode of finishing the
back of skirts at present indications will
be in an inverted boX-pleat, says Harp
ers- Bazaar. The box-pleat and double
and triple box-pleats had a short career
of usefulness. and popular favor, and the
more graceful in-turning pleats are again
the smart thing. AS a rule, these pleats
are stitched fat to the gown for few
inches below the waist and allowed to
fare below, giving almost the effect OF
the habit-back at the top. Of course
many of the gowns with box-pleated
skirts will still be Worn, and some new
ones are being made that way.
Many devices are seen to give the skirt
the desired flare around the foot and
numerous ruffies on the underskirts are
necessary. These and the cleverly con-
structed bustles and little hair-stuffed
pads that the dressnakers insert in the
skirt of thin women give the slightest
figure the correct shape. Small chance
remains for a. woman who is careful and
clever to look plain with the present
style of dress.
