place was taken by Mrs. Tolbert and Miss
C, McWilliams both of whom are prom

Mrs. Toibert made an earnest plea for
both workers and funds with which to
carry on mission work. and by scale
of comparative figures showed how little
was spent in this work in comparison
with the sums spent for other purposes
For missions. she said. during the past
year there had been expended FIVE mil

work only ten millions, while for amuse-

as the king of field sports. The ter
rible fascination of facing foe that
has by nature been made physically
far his superior has been felt by every
man who is worthy of the name of
sportsman, and the delight of pitting
against mere brute strength and saw
agery the cool, unfinching nerve, the
deliberate calculation and the weap-
ons of precision, which are the
product of trained intelligence and
moral faculties, appeals to all. AS a
rule, the tiger is by nature a coward
who must be sought by wiles and
strategy; he does not take to human
he is unable to catch the more active
members of the animal world. But
when wounded, when suffering the
pangs of starvation, when guarding
its cubs, or ayenging their death, the
tiger is of all animals the most relent-
less and the most cunning in it's on
slaught. Endowed by nature with
every gift that can assist the hunting
carnivora, it is in any of these condi-
tions the most to be feared of all the
beasts that man can meet in mortal
conflict To be successful tiger shot
requires not only the most unerring
ability with the rife, but a nervous
system completely under control, a
GOODNESS and a presence of mind such
as are called for to like extent in no
other form of sport, and a personal
bravery which rises superior even to
that shown on field of battle, when
excitement of the moment and fever
ish lust for blood will often string up
the courage Of the most chicken-heart-
ed to deeds of valor. Excitement
would be as fatal as cowardice. 1t il
rare, indeed, that a photograph can
be taken from life in the natural

to spring with deadly intent. Yet
such is the picture above, which was

manner. Skirts both tucked and plated
are seen on every hand, and their pop
ularity can be safely counted upon. to
the end of the present season. at least.
Many of the newest and handsomest
skirts have the tucks outlined by mar
row braid. 1t is a most decorative
mode of trimming in any case, but is
particularly so when the skirt material
happens to have a plain, smooth sur
face.
owing to the lateness of fall, win
ter hats were rather slow in putting
IN an appearance, but within the last
week or two | have seen some charm
ing models which lead me to suspect
that the headgear worn during the
coming months will be both fascinat-
ing and becoming. One sees just now
black hats, and brown hats, and hats
in blue. ranging in shade from the
Lowell y pale Wedgewood tones to the
darker powder blue. Powder blue is
named as a leading favorite among
all the pretty new shades brought out
this season. and l saw but yesterday
a bewitching hat thereof. in fine felt
with crown. which was somewhat on
the "Tammie" order, most daintily
embroidered in gold thread.
The hat of the moment, however, is
the chic-looking black velvet toqre,
made with the fashionable low, broad
outline of brim, over which is arched
becoming set of little ostrich feath-
ers. A soft bow of black satin raises
the left side, while the full puffed
crown is caught down by a cut-jet
buckle.
Every shade of rose color will play
an important part in the world of
millinery this winter, and among the
new velvet trimmings are a number
of lovely tones, reproducing exactly
the tints of roses, geraniums and
azaleas. For evening headgear there
are many exquisite shades of daffodi;
yellow, as well as a very rich tone of
tangerine yellow, particularly appro-
pirate for dark-haired wearers.
On the fascinating subject of fur
garments one might easily write vol
umes, for no other article of femi-
nine attire is so universally becoming
and so much admired as a handsome
fur wrap. AS the seasons go by and
the art of dress approaches nearer
and nearer to perfection, as much

FINE SPORT IN INDIA.
Tiger Shooting Has n Terrible Fas-
cinatiOn for Hunters who Are
Fond of Braving Danger.

1t is on record that a former and
famous viceroy of India gave to a
newly joined Indian civil servant, in
whom he was deeply interested, some
sound advice: "If you wish to sue
ceed in India learn the native Ian
guages, and devote your spare time
to tiger shooting, to pig-sticking, to
polo, or to cricket, according to where
you may find yourself stationed; but
devote it to one of them" Undoubt-
edly the greatest of these, says Lon
don Black and White, is tiger shoot
ing. From the day when first the ad-
venturous Britisher, with his sporting
instinct, went out to the Indies to
serve John Company to the present
time this sport has been looked upon

would seem perfectly safe, however,
to order either stripes or checks for
the new cloth gown. for never were
stripes and checks seen in greater va
riety and never We're they in more gen
eral demand than at the present mo-
ment. Smart is the only word that fitly
describes the new striped clothes, while
too much cannot be said in praise of
this seasons checked material. A dull
red and black check is to be reckoned
first on fashions list, and is the one
most sought after for separate skirts
as well as for swell-looking tailor
mades."
Tailors are making the coats to
these gowns very short-in fact, they
reach only just below the waist. You
can well imagine the careful and exact
fitting they require, for unless we'll

the present fashion, no matter what

bordered with an embroidery done in
gold thread. AS an interesting item of
fashion news might mention that coat
and jacket collars outlined by braiding
or narrow embroidery are more
sought after just now than those en-
tirely covered with embroidery, which
were so popular when the season first

tailors declare it to be the material par
excellence for the winter tailor gown.
There are interesting things galore
concerning the new skirt. For the mo-
ment it would seem as if every skirt,
whether made of silk or cloth, must
have one or more shaped tiounces, the
main idea still being to have a vast
amount of fullness about the foot. As
a skirt flowing at the foot must by all
the laws of contrast fit closely to the
figure above. it goes without saying
that the skirt clinging about the hips
is still held in highest favor. The new
skirt shows the change in fashion more
in its length than anywhere else.
While the trailing skirt is not consid-
cred passe by any means, the newest
ones are made to just touch the ground
all round, and | am certain, were it
not for the extreme fullness at the
foot, would be most difficult things to
walk in. In this new skirt a very charm
ing change, and very welcome one

in six inverted plaits, three on each side,

NORTH POLE FEVER.
Explorer Baldwin Thinks 1t Was
Born in Him.
Interesting Chat with the Leader of
the Proposed ZiegIer Arctic Ex-
pedition-COnhdent That He
VIII Reach the Pole.

Evelyn B. Baldwin, who will under
take a journey of discovery to the
north pole in the summer of 1901, at
the head of an expedition to be
equipped by William Ziegler, a
wealthy citizen of Brooklyn, is an ex-
perienced arctic explorer, well in
formed as to the topography of the
frozen north. He is a rugged, hardy
and courageous traveller, Injured to the
privations and alive to the dangers
which attend all attempts at reaching
the pole. Mr.. Baldwin accompanied
Lieut.. Peary in his efforts to gain the
pole in 1898 and in 1894, and was a
conspicuous member of the expedition
which was commanded by Wellman
two years ago. The new aspirant for
arctic honors is a native of Illinois
and is an expert meteorologist, thus
uniting in his person all the physical
qualifications and scientific knowledge
which make up the ideal traveller in
quest of the unconquered north
In conversation with New York
World representative Mr.. Baldwin ex-
pressed himself as follows concerning
the proposed expedition:
81 presume the north pole fever was
born in me. l can't remember when
l didn't have it. l remember the first
time looked in a geography and saw
a map of the arctic regions that I
thought it would be fine thing to get
to the north pole.
'Twice l tried to get to the pole,
and know well the difficulties which
confront efforts of the kind. 1 was
with Peary in the expedition of 1898
"a and with the Walter Wellman ex-
petition of 1S9S-99.
81 had planned to go with Andree
in the balloon expedition, and went
with him to Spitzbergen for that pur-
pose. 1t was found that the car
would not accommodate more than
three, and, much to my regret, was
left behind. Yes, l still regret it.
Perhaps some act. call it a blunder,
on my part would have been of serv-
zee to the party. The knowledge and
The Republican., 1900-11-15

experience of four men are better
than the knowledge and experience of
three.
"Mr. Ziegler has placed at my dis
posal more money than will be neces-
sary to carry out the object of the ex-
| petition, and it is seldom that any
arctic explorer has been in a position
to say that.
"The start will be made in 1901. For
| certain reasons it is not advisable for
me to be more definite in speaking of
the starting time. The place of start
ing is now being negotiated for. The
starting place and time, however, are
of no Importance When and where
you wind up are the real matters Of
import.
This is purely an American enter
prise, and great interest is being
taken to make it success. Mr.. Zieg-
ler's one ambition in the matter is to
have the American flag planted at the
north pole in advance of any other ma
ton.
Il have every confidence that we
will succeed. If, however, we do not
get there this time we will try again
and keep at it until we get the results
we are after.
~ start for Europe in short time
to complete certain details of the ex-
petition there. Many applications to
accompany the expedition have been
received from experienced arctic ex-
plorers who are anxious to go along
with the expedition. Nine of these
has been accepted, and until the list
of my associates is complete it will
not be given cat.
81 don't care to say anything about
my experience as balloonist or
whether balloons will be employed in
conjunction with the steamers. L will
say. however, that the expedition will
be practical in every way and the
work will be done on practical lines
only"

TrooDs Located by Songs.

Gen. Kryanowsky has tried the orig.
inal experiment during the recent
Austrian maneuvers of using the sing.
ing of songs as a means of ascertain.
ing the whereabouts of the different
companies of corps d'armee. He
commanded each battalion of a di.
vision to learn a certain song Of war
and to sing it when attacked. In this
way he was enabled to discover when
some distance off which bSttalion was
being attacked by. the enemy. The
songs consisted of old folk songs ia
miliar to the men. To each battalion
were attached few musicians ant
drummers, who assisted the sirgir.
soldiers.
