Fashion in a Nutshell.

The long waist is essential.
A narrow effect is desired about the
skirt.
A fiat effect is desired about the
shoulders.
The hips may be brought into prom
inence by small tuckings or gatherings,
but down toward the knees everything
is narrow, sinuous, full and clinging.

IN CHESS CIRCLES.

Captain O'Farrell Is in receipt Of the fol-
lowing crispy letter of congratulation on
winning his match for the District cham
pionship against Mr.. w. A. Gwyer from
Mr.. Walter L. Campbell resident of
Youngstown, Ohio, but who spends a por-
ton of each year in Washington and then
affiliates with the local chess club. Mr..
Campbell is blind and all his games are
consequently "blindfold and are always
centers Of interest:
Dear Champion: Gwyer in the chess
arena, Is a foeman worthy of any mans
steel and to beat him is surely a great
glory. To be champion in a district in
which good chess players lie around thick
as leaves in Valambrosa is some
thing far greater even. The double
serves and has my most cordial and hearty
congratulations. AS she perches proudly
on your conquering banner may she flap
ncisily her mighty pinions and scream
loudly to a listening world. the triumph of
the Irish soldier, chessplayer and anti
imperialist."
The vicinity of Cape Town must be a
pretty good place for chess players. They
seventy native born players were pGt up
against seventy European born. The result
was draw-59h games each.
There is a good chance for a match be-
tween Pillsbury and Mr.. J. F. Barry of
Boston in relation to his peculiar annota-
ton of the correspondence g1ne between
Johnston of Chicago and Young of Boston.
Despite the fact that the game was lost by
the careless play of the former and not the
good play of the latter, Mr. Barry took the
contrary view and made his annotations in
terrible earnestness. Pillsbury and 9th
took the notes rather humor-
ously and asked Barry what answer he
would make to a certain move in the early
game. Barry replied that he would not
give his analysis away without good cause,
and thereupon Pillsbury offered to play
series Of games from that point or general
ly, and it Is now up to Barry to accept or
decline.
Following is a selection of games from
the New York State Association at Buffalo
last week. Unfortunately none are at hand

Crew to BE Kept at Work Until De-
fender Gains Speed.
Yesterday was not day of rest for the
crew Of the Constitution, now at anchor in
the harbor off Oyster Bay, l.. l. They
will know no tdleness for some time to
come, for the yachts manager and cap
tain. In view of Thursdays defeat, are
bound to keep all hands at work tuning
up until the new boat is able to show all
the speed there is in her. The new main
sail was stretched again, and n new and
stronger club was provided for the big top
sail. 1t was expected therefore that the
Constitution would start in today's race in
much better form than was shown Thurs
day, and her followers hoped for differ
ent result.
There would be little use in denying that
there was chagrin among the friends of
the Constitution over the CONSTITUTIONS de-
feat. Bad sails, it was said, did not ex-
plain 1t. Whenever the wind held true
and showed any strength at all the Column
hia simply walked away from the Constitu-
ton, and this. too, in conditions Of sea that
were altogether favorable to the new boat.
Well-known yachtsmen, who have followed
ali the races between the two boats. were
astounded at the spectacle and unable to
explain 1t.
Today's event. The last before the official
trials at Newport, is anticipated with
Pleasure and much interest. The most no.
table spectator IF the race will be Sir
Thomas Upton. He and his party, coS-
sistipg Of Designer George+L Watson. Mr..
Charles Russell. IMr. David Barrie and DR..
Mackay, have accepted an invitation to
dine at the Seawanhaka Club this even
Ing after the race, where they will meet

Der of the club, and the owners of the
Columbia and Constitution While the din
ner Will be altogether informal, 1t will
be notable as the first Of series of en-
tertainments to De given Sir Thomas by
Americans during his stay in this country.

Committee Suggests Line Upon Which

A dispatch from Havana yesterday says:
The committee recently appointed by prom
inent revolutionary leaders to address a
letter to Senior Tomas Estrada Palma ask
ing for a more specific statement from him
regarding the program he would follow If
elected president of the Cuban republic
designated Juan Gualberto Gomez to draft
the communication. He has performed the
task, and the letter has been approved by
the committee.
Referring to the matter today, Senior
Gomez said the letter was private. but was
in the nature of advice to Senior Palma.
suggesting that he should make declara-
items on certain points of policy.
1.-The letter suggests to Senior Palma,
continued Senior Gomez, that he should
declare that some clauses of the Plat
amendment are Objectionable to, the Gu
hans and should pledge himself, In case an
opportunity arises. to work toward chang
ing these in harmony with the United
States government
with reference to the payment Of the
Cuban army the letter advises Senior Pal

HE is also invited to declare that Cuba

taxes"

LAWSON WON AGAIN
Young SweGe Finished First i'm Grand
Circuit Races Last Night

Another inning If the fierce competition
that has marked the fight for the n. C.
A. championship, was furnished to cycle
racing patrons at Madison Square Garden,
New York, last night, and the victory of
Iver Lawson. the recent arrival from Aus
tralia, adds even more interest as to the
probable outcome.
To the surprise of every one present
Kramer was fairly defeated by bott. Cooper
and Colett in the preliminary heat. The
latter fell to Gascoyne's long sprint in the
trial for the final, while Fisher proved easy
for Lawson.
The Swede is now second to Kramer in
the championship table, having passed
Taylor's score, and he will certainly make
a worthy opponent for the Splinter from
East Orange.
The Boston team, O'Connell and Netting,
forfeited to the New Workers, Hurley and
Schneider, after three heats had been rid
den of their match race. 1t was then a tie
at fifteen points, but the New Englanders
claimed Hurley had been given a point too
much
