WASHINGTON, Aug, 27.--It is said
in administration circles that in the
event Of the ability OF the powers to
agree upon a Chinese policy that
will preserve the integrity OF the
empire, the plan most likely to be
adopted will provide for interna
tional administration Of the customs
service. Upon this plan representa-
tives Of the several allied powers
having forces on Chinese soil will
be stationed at all the customs
ports OF China to supervise or ad.
minister the service and watch the
revenues with view to ensuring
the collection of the enormous in
demnity that will be individually
demanded by each OF the govern
ments. II is understood that this
or some joint supervisory scheme
OF similar character will be favored
by this Government, and while the
Government may make other pro.
posals for future policy of a diff
ferent nature, there is no informa-
ton in the possession of this
Government to indicate inharmo.
NOUS action on such a supervisory
plan.

Society of Bsggars a Terror of China,

| Society Of Beggars a Terror OF ohina'
All Cinnamon believe in society,
not the society that is banded to-
gether for social amusement, but
the kind that is formed for pro-
lection or aggression. Iu fact,
China is the hotbed OF societies, and
there are more OF them than can be
enumerated by the missionary.
Perhaps the oldest OF these So
cieties is that formed by the beg.
gsrs. 1t is as powerful almost as
that of the Boxers, aud it numbers
thousands in it's ranks, as any one
can testify who has visited the prin.
cipal cities OF tho Celestial Empire.
The head Of this society is called
"King of the Beggars," and he rules
as il he were potentate. He is
recognized by the government, and
his orders are obeyed implicitly by
all his subjects, the members OF the
society.
The seat OF his government is at
Pekin. Before its gates are thou.
sands OF the members OF his society,
and they are repulsive looking
crowd. They fear no man save
their king, and are as likely to
clutch your coat with scaly hands
as not. The only way you can treat
with them is to buy them off.
They prey upon their own race
as we'll as upon foreigners, and one
Of their methods resembles that OF
the famed brigauds OF Italy. 1
accompanied a missionary party to
Shanghai several years ago, and,
with that city as my headquarters
visited several OF the outlying towns.
The beggars there were as thick as
bees.
While l was on an excursion to
Flu Chang, small town about four
teen miles from Shanghai, the horde
OF beggars descended upon the
place. 1t was fairly besieged. Beg
gars sat in every doorway, nor would
they move, and it was impossible to
escape them. For several days this
siege was continued, until finally
the principal merch ants OF the
place siguified their willingness
to pay.
The king OF the horde arrived the
next day, sum equal to $1,000 was
paid over to him, and by nightfall
there wasn't a sign OF beggar.
They had gone to another town
to levy tribute. 51 6
Books could be written OF the
beggars and their methods, but per-
hsps their worst offence is at the
grayeyards. They frequently re-
fuse to allow bodies to be buried
until they are paid, aud l heard
that when the mourners are obsti-
nate the beggars actually jump
into the grave, where they remain
until they obtain the price de.
manded.

is the English box bolero. It is made
perfectly straight front and back and is
in box plaits. Three box plaits are aid
in front, and three in the back. The
opening is at the left side where it is con-
cealed under the box plait and finished
at the shoulder by a choux of satin rib
bon.
, This Jacket is highly recommended to
slender figures and is becoming to stout
ones, as it is cut off at the waist line.
For cycling there is an effort to revive
the English kilt, where one sid plait lis
laid upon the other, plait after plait,
until the whole skirt is Killed. The more
popular skirt is, however, h French kilt
around the skirt, with no attempt at
the side plait.
Another skirt that is struggling for
recognition is the shirred skirt, with
close shirring upo the hips and a box
| plated back.
The time has arrived when every wo-
man desires an outing dress. The aged
Duchess of Rochfoucauld ordered one the
other day, and the young Countess de
Castellane that same day gave her or
der for one, thus showing that young n
old alike go outing.
/ The outing dress as now constructed
is, however, quite different from that of
other days. 1t is much less conspicuous.
| In fact it is built upon almost precisely
the same lines as the walking and trav-
cling towns
A TRAMPING SUIT.
Several very fine Englishwomen, In
Guiding her grace Lady Somerset, are
spending afternoons tramping the
try roads that are now SO fine. For this
| purpose they wear a skirt that is Just
below the shoe tops, a avn Shirt waist
and a little bolero of cloth to match the
skirt. such a costume is far from expen-
sive. yet extremely comfortable. A. Auit
of this kind cannot be too highly recon-
mende to those who either live in the
country or who go to the country, for
it is of walking length and thus obviates
the dust.

THE SUMNER GIRL
OF 1885, 1900

I know the summer girl of today, and
I remember her grandmother and her
great-grandmother. Now, I'm not going
to say which was the sweeter, the old
fashioned girl or the new. The young
men have found both charming. and
that is enough. But there is a wide diff
ference between the demure maidena of
long ago in the wide-spreading crinolines
and big poke comets tied under the chin
and the young women of today in golf
skirts, high boots and alpine hats.
The Old time summer girl wished to be
called ladylike and modest. There wasn't
any such word then as up-to-date. To
deserve these titles she maintained a
deeorous silence in the presence of her
elders. When they spoke to her she
dropped with witching grace a quaint isr-
tie courtesy and If there was a misrniey-
Gus light in her eyes the eyelids dropped
and quickly hid 1t.
Her only diversions were walking and
dancing, and she did not enter into either
OF these very vigorously. But she tripped
a measure gracefully with a,young gal
liant and then went back to SIT demurely
beside her mother.
But you must not imagine thai this
summer girl of the past was was namby-
pamby or stupid. Not by any means!
She was saucy and piquant.
There was no comradeship between
Daily inter mountain. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1881-1901, 1900-08-11

the boys and girls then. There never had
Deen any talk about the equality of the
sexes. The summer girl would sit CON-
tentedly among the old ladies', in their
stiff black silk gowns and white ker-
chiefs, and sew diligently on q bit of
white embroidery. never joining in the
conversation unless she was asked a
question.
Now, this young creature did not sud-
denly vanish from our midst. She merely
gradually merged into the summer girl
OF today. There was no violent change.
1t all came about naturally and quiz
city.
Year by year I began to notice a diff
ference in the girls. They were grow
ing more independent, freer. They didn't
squeeze their waists or their feet, and
they didn't often blush.
Half a century ago there were some
girls who, wen with the disadvantages
of ~hoopSkirts and high-heeled shoes,
went in for outdoor Sports. There wasn't
anything they could not do except climb
even dare these in a omen of exuber-
ance when unobserved.
These girls We're called tomboys. After
awhile they found a sedate outlet in
croquet.
When the short-skirted, bicycling
young woman first came along she was
voted masculine. But she would mount
her wheel and go for a spin through the
shady roads and come home with such a
healthy color, as we'll as a healthy appe-
title, that her critics became her admir-
ers.
That marked the beginning of the pop
ularity of the athletic girl.
The mner girl of 1900 is an outdoor
creature. She scorns to be hampered
by long skirts or feminine frills. She is
tailor-made, Independent and Joyous.
She delights in hunting, wheeling, golf
ing. tennis, bowling and all the sports
of men. h is their comrade. There
isn't so much romance about it, perhaps,
but there is a lot of real fun.
1t seems amusing, but I can remember
the first girl who ever wore a short or
bicycle skirt in the Catskill mountains.
She was called 'bold," and the women
blushed and turned their heAis when she
came by. Now there is hardly 4 girl
without a short skirt, which she Ions
every morning. and is ready for the golf
grounds, for tramping or for any of the
amusements that she now claims as her

Another outing gown-while on the
subject of outing dresses-is being built
for the young Countess de Fourtales, the
leader of the smart set in Paris. This
young woman is giving to cycling and
boating, and has recently taken up the
American fad of pistol practice. She is
striving to cultivate the English taste
for walking. She is a tall, 1.-THE figure and

DOGS THAT HAVE
HAD THEIR DAY
IN PARIS THEY CLEVERLY DYE
THE ANIMALS so AS TO
MAKE NEW DOGS OF
THEM,

Every dog has his day and the white
dog has had his. Fashion now demands
That the dog shall be black, and no mat
ter If his natural coal be white as snow,
Or red as a hazel nut it must be changed
ITO the color of ebony. This does not of
course apply to dogs that have natural
colors or markings, such as the fox ter
rier and the white Spite. Both of these
dogs have their own distinctive colors,
and if their coats We're changed. thew
would be entirely Unbiased. But wher-
ever "a dog is of a general family THAI
cam be changed as to color, it is the fash
ION to give him a coat of dye.
IN Paris the practice of coloring and
otnefWlse metamorphorosing dogs seem
70 pc carried out extensively, and gen
orally for various obvious reasons.
one reason is that some persons who
pet dogs like to have them of a color
corresponding to the fashionable color
or each particular season, and, as dogs
can not shed their skins like snakes, the
necessary changes of color must be pro-
duced by other means. Another reason
is that dog s~tealers find it very profitable
TO give a new hue to such CANNES as
,they may acquire, as it is then lmpossi-

IN a fox terrier can be made by means
OF a tlncture composed of Walnuts and

injure the animals health and the ficti-
'tious color will last to the end of the
season.

is very easy, and is effected by %dua

OUTING GOWNS FOR
ALL WOMANKIND
ARE THESE DRESSES THAT
WOMEN OF FASHION ARE
WEARING THEM IN
THE STREETS.
DESIGNS WORN IN LONDON.

Paris, July 25.-The Princess Victoria
came over from England the other day
to buy an outing suit. And what did
she purchase? Not one of the new French
satin cloths, nor yet the German heavy
weight hunting goods, but Scottish tweed.
Little she knew that she could have got
DIT cheaper and in greater variety nearer
home. Perhaps the princess considers
the privilege of getting lit upon a Paris
model worth more than the saving by
the yard. Either way, she bought the
goods and, after many and tiresome
measurements, departed leaving her roy
al order that the goods may be made up
and sent ITO London.
The colors of the tweed We're wood
browns, ait least six different shades of
them showing in the cloth. It was curl
Gus to see how prettily they blended, the
darker brown disappearing as the lighter
shades manifested themselves The
bronze and leaf shades came out strong
IN broad stripes and the whole was
shown upon a background of tan, paler
than any wood.
The French require two colors in every
gown, SO they tell you, a dash of scarlet
and atouch of black. The scarlet in this
gown was to how in the soft silk vest:
While the black was very simply intro
duced by a narrow black enamel belt.
You will scarcely believe that the stock
Will be of black enamel to match the belt,
with the brilliant silk vest putting out be-
dow 1t. Yet you can imagine how sports
manlike 1t will all look.
- ROYAL HUNTRESSES.
The Empress of Germany, now that
she sees her seven children growing up
around her, is renewing her youthful
Pleasures. A gown ordered for her. by
THE secretary of the emperor, was being
fashioned a few days ago by an elegant
modfste. The order for the dres came
upon royal letter paper and it gave the
dressmaker carte blanche for an autumn
hunting suit. Not daring to depart from
the field colors, she chose for forest green
and built a gown of a smooth green cloth
rather heavy in weight. The skirt was
plain in front and opened at each side
Seam where 1t was secured again with
three gold buttons. The back had a small
box plat.
The skirt scarcely came to the shoe

Run Down Farms,

II every farmer realized what II
costs In labor and money and psecIous
time there would be fewer farms OF
this kind. Many people let things 60
down almost uncOnsciously. 1t is only
n little worse this year than last; last
year 1t was only little worse than
the year before, ard so the difference
Is not noticed. But IL they would CON
trast things now with what they were
five or ten years sgo they would see
that II would do themselves and the

well for every man occasionally to
ask himself whether his capital stock
Is going mp or down. As q rule the
