SHIRT WAISTS COME TO STAY.
Some Incidents, Comments. and Pre-
dictions on the Fad

NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-Two shirt waist
men attempted to scale the social barrier
erected against their kind in the Waldorf
Astoria last night. They tackled the men s
cafe first, but were refused things to eat
and drink unless they put on the outer
covering. Then the two sauntered into
the open bar Of the hotel. The bartenders,
all clad in linen coats, informed them that
the seductive Manhattan and the decora-
tive julep were on sale there only for
coated individuals. Later, it is reported,
the couple succeeded in obtaining a beer
on Third Avenue from e. barkeep who
himself was a shirt waist manly birth
and breeding.
The head waiter OF the hypen cafe was
asked If there was any trouble. His SUI
periority was crushing as he replied: Ger
tainly not, sir. There was no trouble. We
informed them that they could not be
served unless they put on their coats. Nor
were they served in the barroom. If any
one wishes TO be served in the Waldorf
Astoria, he must dress properly"
At another hosiery, whose silly season
1t is, judging from the deserted look. the
person in charge said: shirt waists? 1
don't know what We should do about them.
II they came in now, / can't say what We
would do. | suppose We would serve them
There isn't much of this sort of thing just
now. But look out for next year. l think
it has come to stay, and will gain In popu-
larity."

NEW GREAT SEAL.
1t Has Just Been Designed to Re.
place the Old One

LONDON, Aug. 3.-The preparation Of
the new great seal is described by the
deputy master and comptroller OF the mint
in his annual report. 1t appears that the
great seal last engraved lin 1879 had been
impaired ty use. 1t was determined that
the preps alton of the new great seal
should be entrusted to the mint engrayer.
Mr.. De saulles accordingly prepared de-
signs for the seal and countsr-seal. which,
on being approved by Her Majesty, he
modelled and submitted to the lord chaneeI-
Tor before they were reduced TO the actual
size on which the final engraving was eff
fected
The seal represents the Queen seated
on throne, the arms of which are sup
ported by lions. Her Majesty is crowned,
vested in a richly embroidered robe. and
habited in the royal ornaments, with the
ribbon and star of the Order OF the Gar
ter. In her right hand she holds the
sceptre, her left reposes on the arm of
the throne At her feet is an ornamented
cushion embroidered with the rose, sham
rock, and thistle, placed on a footstool.
The throne is adorned with a wreath Of
laurel confined by a ribbon On the Queens
right is a figure Of st. George, fully armed,
and bearing a lance with pennon. On the
left stands st. Michael, resting on his
sheathed sword. Inc panels supporting
these figures bear. respectively, the sword
and scales of justice, surrounded by laurel
wreaths. The legend round the seal runs
as follows: Victoria, Del Gratia, Britt.
Regina, F1d. Def. Ind. Imp"
The eounter-seal represents the Queen
crowned, mounted on her paIfrey, and in
the royal mantle. In her right hand she
holds the seeptre, in her left the orb. in
the field 10 the right, the royal arms on a
shield, encircled by the Order OF the Gar
ter with its motto. Above, a scroll with
the words, "Dieu ct Mon Droit,' and on
either side the rose, shamrock, and thistle.
Below, in the distance, the sea, with
ironclad and sailing vessel, suggesting
the naval strength and trade of the United
Kingdom, which are further indicated at
the base by the presence Of trident, d-l-
phins, and conventional waves, which are
continued in the ornament on either side
the lower part of the counter-seal. The
general treatment is that Of the Renais-
sance.

tering-speclal designs and type-are par
ticularly the feature of this work, and
present one Of the most agreeable and
altogether successful and up-to-date typo
graphical performances that has so far
come to my notice. BY comparison, the
cheap provincial little art catalogue issued
at Chicago in 1898 is nothing short of
amusing. This handsome catalogue of Mr..
Nichols is worthy the splendid American
exhibit and is not less credit to America.
Washington is proud of this success OF one
of her local artists, and congratulates him
upon 1t, as well as Commissioner Peck,
for the catalogue, complete, accurate. and
consummately tasteful, is one OF the things
which must stand for the exhibition long
after the show itself has ceased to exist.
The catalogue before me reveals the well
come fact that Washington is represented
at the Exposition by two able artists, Mr..
Howard Helmick, the painter, and Miss
Clar Hill. the sculptor. Mr.. Helmick shows
an illustration loaned by the Century Com
pany and Miss Hills exhibits are portrait
busts of Presidents Lincoln and Grant

TROLLEY DEAL GOES THROUGH.
Route Between New York and Phil

TRENTON, N. J., Aug. 1.-THE nur-
chase yesterday OF the iron bridge snan-
ming the Delaware River between this civ
and Morrisville by J. B. Shaw & Co. of
Boston, assures the contamination OF the
deal planned to establish a trolley line
between Philadelphia and New York.
J. b. Shaw & Co, Of Boston. and the
Philadelphia Street Railway Company are
here declared 10 be one and the same.
Offices will be opened here next week in

sentative OF the company will be on hand.
Engineers will start on the work OF build

f. II. Gay G. Co. OF Boston. have taken
the bonds OF the company. The Philadel-
ph!a Street Railway Company also owns
majority Of the bonds Of the Morrell
Trolley and Turnpike, although there is
little Likelihood there will be any con-
neeiion between that system and the
through line. The principal hackers of
the company are said to be Mr.. Shaw and
ex-State Treasurer Tumble, both OF bps

The bridge just purchased by the syndi-
cate spans the Delaware Just at the head

NEW CHARITY COMMISSIONER.
appointment of Albert GoettinG for
norough of BrookIyn.

NEW YORK. Aug. 1.-Acting Mayor
Guggenheimer today announced the ap-
pointment of ex-Judge Albert Goetting as
commissioner of charities for the borough
of Brooklyn and Queens, to fill the vacancy
caused by the death of Adolph Simis.
Mr.. GoettinE is ffty-two years old. He
was born at CoblentZ. and came TO this
country in 1858. He served as police JUS
tice for two terms in Brooklyn, and then
two years as a municipal court judge, his
term expiring on January l. 1900. He has
a law office in the Garfield Building. &c
Court Street Brooklyn, and lives in the
Ninteenth Assembly district of Kings. His
appointment was urged by Commissioner
John L. Shea. who recommended him to
Hugh Mclaughlin.
Politicians regard the appointment Of
Goetting as an evidence that relations be-
tween Tammany Hall and the Brooklyn or
ganization are still harmonious. What eff
feet this will have on the possible nominal
tion of Mr.. Coler for Governor is matter
for conjecture.

THE PERIL OF WESTMINSTER.
Fumes of Chlorine CrumblinS the
Stone of the Abbey.

bUNDUN. Aug. 1.-THE dean of West
minister Abbey, realizing the serious con-
dition of the cathedral. owing TO crumb-
ling stonework. appointed a committee Of
experts to examine the building. Their re-
port, which is of the most alarming ma
ture, declares that unless the fumes from
the Daulton poteries at Lambeth are
stopped the abbey will became a ruin in
a few years.
Prof Church says: I'VE were called in
in the nick of time. The noxious fumes
have been rottlng the stOnewOTk beneath
the surface for years. We examined the
chapter house crypt particularly, but fear
the abbey proper, especially the east end.
is in grave peril, too. Microscopic and
analytic examinations of the crumbling
stonework shows that hydrochloric acid
causes the troubles. The potters must be
induced TO use less chlorine or regulations
framed to prevent the escape Of the
fume."
Prof. Church has discovered a mixture
with which to wash the acid-eaten stone.
1t arrests decay and solidifies the erumh-
ling mass.

IN DANGER FROM FOREST FIRES
Big Blaze on kaatersI-tI1 Mountain
Threatens Hotels.

CATSKILL, N. Y. Aug. u.-Fierce
forest fires are raging on Kaaterskill
Mountain, On which the Hotel Kaaterskill
and the Laurel House are situated, and
much anxiety is felt for the safety of these
resorts. The fire started on Thursday be
low the Kaaterskill Falls, one half mile
from the Laurel House.
The flames are sweeping up the hill and
at present are less than quarter OF a
mile from the Laurel House and nearly
one mile from the Hotel Kaaterskill. Both
hotels are filled with smoke, and at the
Laurel House all the guests have left. A
number Of guests have also left the Hotel
KaateTskill.
A large number OF men are at work fight
ing the fire and eudeayoring to keep it
away from the hotels. At present the fire
fighters number geo men. One man en-
gagged in fighting fire lost his life yester-
day The most hopeful report which has
arrived from the locality is that the wind
is blowing the flames from the hotels. The
managers of the hotels are hoping that
the wind will continue in this direction.
A change in direction would mean certain
destruction to both hotels.

months everybody he talked with was

man who believed in changing the Repub-
lie for an Empire, as the Republicans

influential gold Democrats who supported
Mr.. Mckinley In sc, and they told me
that they were for Bryan and would work
day and night to secure his election, be-
