Eccentric SUMMER Hats.

Very picturesque and extraordinary
are the hats, but modifying rapidly I'M
der popular disapproval of their eccen-
tricity. Hats made entirely of flowers
in the new shapes are fresh and at
tractive in their coloring, but fortu-
nately are not worn excepting in the
smaller shapes. Never has there been
a time when hats attractive in the
original model can be made SO hideous.
A tulle or chiffon hat made of tucks
and Of the shape that is fiat against the
head at the back and with the brim
turned off the face and trimmed with a
spray of roses is a pretty model, but
the same idea copied in coarse Illusion
and trimmed with quantities Of cheap
lilies of the valley is extremely ugly.
Just now there are a number of hats
in good shapes and in all colors that
may be bought ready made and require
very little extra trimming. There are
soft rosettes of taffeta silk and large
roses with leaves, either Of which is all
that is needed to make the hat look
smart, but the larger ready made hats
of colored illusions and trimmed with
quantities of small flowers are simply
a hideous travesty of the present style

high draped collar band Of lace is trim

the elbow, where it is cut in scallops
and reveals a lace puff trimmed with
ribbon and buckles. At the wrist there
are three rows of sca1lops. The draped
belt is of black satin fastened with a
gold Observation-Disclosures Ledger.

Tt was evident in his swagger that
he was a scion of the British aristocra-
cy, and the most casual observer could
not have failed to note that he was a
stranger to the city. He touched a
well dressed, auburn haired young man
who was lolling in front Of a Broad

Pardon me, me dear man, but could
I trouble you for a match?" After
lighting his cigar he continued: "Bah

NEW 9 STORIES
Ton, Damn and the Lord.

There recently came 10 these shores a
democratic young Irishman in the per-
SOL of the Earl of Clonmel. He had at
got him in it's clutches and gave him a
g~rievous time before he was able to
appear again in the halls of the Wal
~dorf-Astoria, where he staid. Once up
and about he made the best of good
times of it apparently, for everybody
liked him and he seemingly liked ev-
erybody. He went hither and yon, and
the other day he sailed for home, ap-
parently well satisfied with what he
had seen and done (the latter princi-
pally being in the line of horseflesh)
while in the United States. Being dem
ocratic by nature, it fell out quite natu-
rally that Lord Clonmel should be en-
tertained at dinner by the Democratic
club, and so in the curse of events one
evening the earl found himself COM
fortably seated in a private dining
room of the club. At his elbow sat ex-
Sheriff Tom Dunn. The ex-sherif sur
veyed the earl thoughtfully and in 81
lence for awhile, and hen he assayed
speech. "'Tis a wonderful country.
America, is it not?" queried he, turning
to Clonmel. at is" assented the guest
of the evening. "It is So" went on
Dunn dreamily, "for here am 1 seated
at Lord Clonmel's elbow in America,
and, sure, if 1 was in the old country /
couldn't get nea enough to him to
shoot him with a gun."-New York

Certain Of the Spartan women, it is

eff we cut off our hair and give it to

tested.
"Why we can string our beaux with

warmly.

objection was heard, and the fabrica-

Victoria as a Host.

The London Chronicle says the an
nouncement that the king of Italy will
be the guest of King Edward VII this
year recalls the visit paid by his grand
father, Victor Emmanuel, when he was
king of Sardinia, to Queen Victoria.
The king used to tell his friends for
many and many a year afterward lit
tie stories to illustrate Queen Vic
toria's friendly and homely spirit.
When his leave taking of the queen
and the prince consort was formally
over and he was in his apartment on
the point of departure, the queen
knocked on the door and ran in alone

The Sword of "Fighting Mac"

General Hector Macdonald began
1T too humdrum he went for a soldier.

ty of service, and because he was
fond of a scrimmage they gave him
his we'll known nickname. So good

years 6 than it is now-and as lieu

Cassell's Little Folks, Captain (after-

Ninety-second Gordon highlanders had
a talk at Newcastle, in the Transvaal,
with Joubert, the famous Boer gen
eral who died in the second Boer war.
Robertson told Joubert about Hector
Macdonald and his lost sword.
"Ah," said Joubert, "that brave man
must have his sword again! I will
search the Transvaal for it and offer
IS reward for it." Joubert did search
and found the sword in the possession
of a farmer who, On learning the story,
parted with the claymore without re-
ward. Fighting Mac" had the pleas
ure of receiving his good claymore
from the hands of General Joubert
