Why She Liked Shop

They had been talking at the rate of fully IS to. the dozen, these two fait young damsels, and the subject of their conversation was, of course, the wise and witty sayings, the charms ot manner and other admirable traits of character possessed by their respec- tive sweethearfs.
 Don't you like to have any body talk shop when they cormeto see you2" gur- gled Mary.
 Indeed, I do. Who's been talking shop to you?''
 "Oh, Charlie, of course! He's tram conductor, you know, and nearly every time he comes to see me he goes on with his shop taIk.''

opeI,-Air Chmrftfes.

It was only 25 years ago that kitfd- hearted editor of a New York paper had his sympatlffes aroused by seeing a group of street children ordered off the grass in one of the parks. He col lected those children, and took them all for a sail on the bay. That was the beginning of New Y ork's extensive onen-air charities. The country homes open to mothers and babies dur ing the hottest weather, the seaside cottages and floating hospitals, are now numbered by hundreds. St. Johns Guild has two floating hos pitals.--'Woman's Home Companion.

WITH THE HORSES

The trotter Dave Hughes (2:151z) was nabbed at Warren, O., last Satur- dlay on ;t ringing trip, under the liame of Dick M., winner of the 2:S0 tr0t. The horse was dyed a rich chestnut. He was entered by D. w. Cummings of Shelby. O., and was driven by Hark son. the latter claiming to be an inno- cent party if there was any deceEaiol1. Several men claimed the horse to be Dave Hughes 2:1514), raised at the VII lage Farm, at Buffalo, by a Mir McEl- roy It is claimed the deal was worked by William Rush and James Fogerty of Buffalo. N F., the latter being the driver of Dave Hughes ap to the pres ent race, and Cummings of Shelby The original color of Dave Hughes is bay. Rush bet heavily on Dick M- drew his share of the purse and left town. It was said by the judges that Fogerty and Cummings gave Driver Barnes $100 to keep the matter quiet At least he made this claim to the jndges The case is stifl under inves. tigation. while the horse is in Warren O.. in the care of Cummings.
 Osfensibly to settle the question of speed between the two pacers but in reality with the hope of having har- ness horse cover a mile in better than two minutes. the Empire City Trottine club has arranged for match race be tween Dan Patch and Prince Alert The purse offered is S5.000. and the winner takes all.

An fnsInuasion.

It was a, warm Sunday morning in church. Fans were futtering, hymna- als Hopping, handkerchiefss mopping streaming faces; and the minister thought his audience q little lax in at tention. Finally he led up to rebuke for their lack of considerati tion for sa- cred and important things. Said he:
 People are prone to attend to the unimportant things of life"
 And he gave 2 few examples to illus trate the idea. Presently he made his pertinent applied ton.
 'sNow,n said he, lyon are attentive to your own comfort this morning, to the sinful neglect of the holy word Take no thought for the heat," he said, dramatically, 'fer you may be dead to morrow Free Press.

THE DEPARTMENT OF DRESS.
New Materials ana Models ThnA Are Much in Favor with Fsasfion'A
 FUIl6yverS.

Not only the linen, duck. pique and grass cloth suits recently mentioned, but serge, nohair, etamine, canvas, i yelling, foulard, summer silk. and silk and wool costumes are now sold ready ] made in this city, finished in the 1 smartest and most approved tailor fashion, and of the best quality offab- rics, and at very low prices, reports the New York Post.
 White watered silk is one of the favorite materials for bridal and re-
 ception dresses this season. The sup pie moires of to-day, however, show
 much smaller weaves, the watered sur ] faces are very often richly lowered or otherwise figured, and when the foundation is simply moired, it is usually yelled with lace, chiffon, or !, tulle- e-softening the effect of the glinting background, the moife in turn iInparting a particularly beautiful appearance to the airy textile which covers it.
 The light weight coat or jacket is always an essential item in the sum-
 mer outilt, and ono of the popular ! models is in blouse Eton form, which in some cases is dartrtucked at the belt or gathered. A travelling costume l of gray voile over taffeta has bishop
 sleeves and shirred front, and one of gun metal and white striped silk
 has a peplum of the silk joined to a narrow gtitched belt, and the turn back cuffs of the plain close sleeves, and the edges of the rolling collar are | finished with black fagot-stitching in heavy saddlers' silk
 Moired check silks and gatins have appeared. Snal-waved watered silks
 and brocndes will be fashionable for two seasons, and many corded silks
 of the best quality will be used in the
 making or decorating of dress" cos- tunes for the early autumn. 1t is also learned from official sources that the shepherds check craze, both in silks and silk-wool fabrics, has only just begun, and that the demand for these materials will increase continually during this and the coming season. Trained net skirts over foundations of taffeta or satin, white or black, with fiounces of Chantilly, venise, or other handsome lace, are among the
 handsomest gowns of the season. If one is possessed of one, two or three lace founces, the rest of new summer
 costume can easily be made by the purchase of about eight yards of don-
 bIe width net. The net skirt should
 be tucked all around OF with spaces left for insertions of lace, and the founces should, if possible, cover one
 third of the length of the skirt on the
 sides and about half it's length at the
 back. Black Chantilly founces, with l black figured net over white satin, fin ished with bodice accessories of white
 chiffon and black lace elbow frilis,
 form one of the ha1adsomest of the
 black and white gowns fashionable

Jack Harvey Posts His Forfeit to Meet
 Jack Roach on the Mat.

Jack ROdcl O0 tIl0 MdLs
 There is now not much doubt about Jack Harvey facing Jack Roach on the wrestling mat for last night he GOV cred the forfeit that Roach has had up for some time in the hands of the sporting editor of the Democrat. Since the meeting between the two in the Democrat office Harvey has been try ing hard to interest several people in his ability as a wrestler, and he has shown them in private what he is capa- ble of doing Evidently those trials were satisfactory, for he has found several people in the city who are will. ing to back him against Roach, and they have formed pool and raised the S1O0 side bet. Last night Harvey GOV cred the forfeit of $25 and on Monday night he will post the balance of the $100 and sign articles of agreement. Harvey said last night that he only wished he had $1 ,O00 and he would bet every cent of it that he would defeat Roach. He says he willy prove to Roach and his friends that when he laid claim 10 the championship of the world at 125 pounds he was making no idle boast and he will make Jack Roach sorry that he ever forced him in@O a match.
 JOnn H.. heiiy was tUiu EtutS HIUFHiIS that Harvey had covered his forfeit and that the balance of the s100 would be put up Monday night. He did a song and dance at the news and says .sit is the easiest money he ever won. Roach has never been pushed in any match he has ever had.but in private" says Kelly, 'she has been up against tho best of them, and he is the best in the business himself. for he has demon strated that fact. Roach will make short work of Harvey and he will pun- ish this world heater, says Kelly. So badly that he will never want to go on the mat again. If Harvey can raise more than $10O we will take all he brings along in side bets, and the peo pie Of this city will see the fastest wrestling bout that was ever held here. We will be on hand Monday night and we will sign articles right off the reel It will be easy money for us, very easy.' said Kelly. when he was leaving the office

DIFFERENCE IN GEARS.
The Present Emperor Of Russia Ts . Great Improvement Upon <
 His FatfzeF.

Although the present. czsr of Russia possesses almost absolute power over the lives of his subjects he never ex- ercises it. He is noted throughout his vast domain for his kindliness of heart and toleration.. In this he differs great Iy from his, father and predecessor, Alexander. says a London paper. Alexander was an uneducated man. His elder brother, Nicholass had been carefully taught and trained, but his death at the age of 22 placed Alexan- der in the position of heir to-. the throne, and he was then too old to Iearn- He was thoroughly RomanoH, imperious and naughty The one per son with whom he was gentle was his wife, who he treated to the Last as though she were pet chdld. To his underlings he could be absolutely brutal, although toward the end of his life his manners were said to be won- drously improved.
 Before he succeeded to ths throne very painful thing occurred which proved how callous he could be. An officer of Swedish origin had been sent to the United States to order rifles for the Russian army. On his return he had to report to the czarewitch, who was appointed to superintend the re arming of the troops. During the in terview the prince lost his temper and began to scold sharply. The officer replied with dignity, whereupon Alex ander fell int fit rf s.-~s. fttl lnaded
