only brought to earth his first lion, but saved the life of one of his com panions in the chase, Dr. Gerald B. Webb, of Colorado Springs. As it was, the animal fell upon the physician, knocked him to the ground and made several ugly wounds with it's sharp claws.
 Accompanied by John Golf, guide. Gov. Roosevelt, Dr. Webb, "Dick" Stone and A. G. Wallihan started from Meeker for the Keystone ranch 36 miles northeast of there. Four miles from the city the hounds struck scent and led the hunters on hot chase of eight miles. When the dogs were overtaken the lion had sought refuge in a tree. Dismounting, the hunters stood near by and discussed who was to do the shooting. All wanted MT. Roosevelt to do it, but he unselfshly declined. Finally lots were drawn and the vice president elect pulled the longest straw. Mean- time the lion had done some thinking, for just as Col. Roosevelt raised his rifle, the beast sprang straight for the men. A bullet from the colonePs fife met it in midair, penetrating the orute's neck and breaking it's back bone. It fell with tremendous force on Dr. Webb. 'Dick" Stone brought the body of the beast back, and says che colonel is delighted with the trophy of the hunt. It will be mount ed and sent to Oyster Bay.

AGE MADE A DIFFERENCE.

In his "Recollections of a Mission ary in the Great West'' Cyrus Town send Brady says: When my little son could scarcely walk took him to the cathedral one uay, when I re- turned for something I had forgotten after morning service. left the child in the nave, and when I went back to him he had advanced halfway up the middle aisle and was standing where the sun threw a golden light about his curly head. A tiny object he was in that great church. It was very still. He was looking about in every direction in the most curious and eager way. To my fancy he seemed like a little angel. when he said in his sweet childish treble. which echoed and reechoed beneath the vaulted roof: Papa, where's Jesus? Where's Jesus?' He had been told that the church was the house of the Saviour, and on this, his first visit, he expected to see his Lord. That baby is quite grown up now. Not in the faintest particular does he resemble an angel. The other day, when I rode off to the wars, he aston ished even me with his request: Papa, if you get wounded, don't forget to bring me the bullet that knocks you out; I want it for souvenir for my collection' Fortunately for me, if un- fortunately for him, brought him no bullet"

threadbare, yet it is nevertheless a truth, and one we'll known to those who have studied the matter with discrimina ting eyes, that most won- en with their innate love of all that is pretty and becoming are inclined to be eXtravagant. and that womeh- the woman of the smart set, l mean, who is supposed to set the pace in fine 6ressing-were never more reck- lessly lavish than at the present mo- ment. Her gowns are the most sumptuous that money can buy, and usually as perishable as handsome; her dainty neclwear is at once fra gile and costly, while the amount of money represented by her exquisite lingerie and fine hosiery would seem a veritable fortune to many women. Nothing suits her capricious fancy but the most delicatelv tinted gloNs. which are irredeemably ruined by thrice wearing, while her various silken petticoats, each a dream Of loveIiness in itself, are taken as matter of course. Priceless laces and embroideries are cut up in such way that they can never be used again, while only the most expensive feathers and costliest jewels orna- ment her fashionable headgear. And so might run the entire gamut of her extensive wardrobe, but time and space forbid.
 \ reaction is bound to come sooner or later, but just when or where is beyond the ken of man. That there is no sign of the immediate approach of any such change is evidenced at all the leading shops, where the dis play of fine clothing and exquisite fabrics is lavish and costly beyond compare. The subject most talked about and admired in the world of
Waterbury Democrat., 1901-02-02

away into mere nothing at the bare mention of laundry tub. I am bound to say, however, that many of these new goods are not nearly as expensive as at the first glance they seem to be, for they are of such ex- treme width, especially the swisses, that six yards will be found amply sufficient for the most elaborate gown. Swiss mounted over a shim- mering taffeta silk is fascinating and the right thing to buy if one can afford sillSen lining, but where the answers the purpose in the most ad- m1rable manner.
 For those who prefer a snug bank ac-, count to fine raiment there are cool looking dimities and fine muslins ga- lore, not to mention the many hand some silk ginghams and delicately tinted lawns that are seen on every hand and can be procured for the pro- verbial song. But want to say right here that if one has to hire gowns made it is not always wise to economic in the material, for after paying the bill with the long list of findings tackled on by the fashionable dress maker one soon realizes that the material itself is, after all, the smallest item of expense.
 The all-white costume will be the favorite this summer, just as it was last, and, although a somewhat extriav- agant fashion. it is one so universally becoming to both cid and young that no one ought to demur at it's continued popularity.
 There is a decided feelin g in favor for summer gowns of grays and gray greens, while later on we may expect than which there is no more beautiful com bin ation.
 Fashion makers claim that the real ly pictureque tea gown cannot be con- structed unless lace and chiffon play an important part in the manufacture thereof; and, after looking at the latest models sent out by a well-known house, I am inclined to agree with them. The all-lace tea gown, either in black or cream lace, is extremely dressy and be- coming, more particularly when worn with the jeweled girdle of the mo- ment, or q wide embroidered belt, but it's charms are quite lost sight of when placed beside one showing the ideal mixture of lace and chiffon like the one in the picture.
 For wear at this particular season of the year the tea gowns should be of the most luxurious colorings, deftly mixed with Lace, and perhaps touch of fur. For this purpose nothing quite
Waterbury Democrat., 1901-02-02

takes the place of velveteen, which comes to us nowadays in such exquisite oo1orings and; in such an absolute state of perfection that il is permissible, to use it in the construction of the dressi- est of tea gowns. Of course the beauti- ful soft panne velvets are much supe. rior, but these are not at everyboGy's command, and for home wear at least velveteen suits the purpose most ad mir ably. Crepe de chine is another III terri al much sought after for tea gowns, and, as it's draping propensities are vastly superior to all the other ia brics, it is deservedly popular.
 Within the week 1 have seen some delightful specimens of the tailor's art in the way of tailor gowns which are being constructed against the day of need. Some follow rather closely the general style of those worn late in the fall, while in others the changes have been radical in the extreme: Not few are made with their tight-fitting jackets cut with the new habit back. l am wondering how this style will take, as I am quite sure it can only be seen at it's best when worn with long trailing skirt, and the best tailors are not making their new skirts in any such manner, but are fashioning them to just clear the ground, unless ordered to 10 otherwise.
 There are now on exhibition at leading tailor's some very handsome coat and skirt costumes made of the ever popular tweed, the one shown in the illustration being among the smartest looking. To those who have given the matter any attention dur ing the past two months the an- nouncement that the three-quarter coat is the coming fad will not come as a great surprise. It is a length that is not generally becoming, but we can trust to the fertile brain of the wide-awake tailor to make it so. These coats come to us under the joint reign of velvet and silk, and are dressy and chic enough in appearance to tempt the most reso.ute woman. The one in the picture is fashioned of black panne velvet and ornament ed with handsome buttons and worn open, showing g vest of fine. lace. The hat worn with it is in the "three-cornered" shape, style, by the way, that created perfect furore in Paris during the closing days of the exposition.

toque hat set jauntily on her head, passed the porcine individual several times. She evidently was hunting up a particular shade of ribbon or on the search for peculiar style of lace, for her brow was puckered and she seemed perturbed.
 Because she passed and repassed sev- eral times the masher thought it was due to his own charms. On her third trip past the corner the cad raised his hat. The little woman flushed indig- nantiy and there was a dangerous spar kle in her eye, but she continued on her way. The masher looked after her, but decided to await her return. He took up even q more prominent place on the sidewalk.
 of one of the big department stores and pfepared to sail past the masher she evidently had mapped out a cam paign of action. She unfurled her um- brella and raised-it, although the rain was falling but lightly. There was a gleam of revenge in her eye as she sallied out, but the cad on the cor ner, when he saw her coming, smiled complacently to himself.
 When just opposite the rotund mash CT the little woman lowered her um- bre1la, ostensibly to withstand a sud den blast. The steel rod of the parasol was pointing directly at the masher's third waistcoat button and when she charger home the cad howled for very pain. When, with seeming surprise,
 
 it was to see the fleeing form of her tormentor, and as he fled the laughs and jeers of the crowd followed him.
