SOCIA.I.n AND
PERSONAL

Society people throughout the United
States are looking eagerly forward to the
styles for 1902-19O3. which Dame Fashion
will bring out in October. Under her
skiilful manipulation, milady will shine
with new sp1endor at the autumn Horse
Shows. The wonderful gowns which are
now being contrived by cunning fingers
will then make manifest the ukase to
which society votaries will be pleased
to lend obedience.
Then also will appear the triumphs Of
millinery which will crown the soft braids
of milady's hair; the smart little boots
which will encase her shapely feet, and
the gloves worn upon her slender hands.
In point of fact, toilettes for autumn
and winter. as forecasted by the coutou-
RIGS models. show great richness Of de-
sign and finish. Very few strictly tai
lored gowns are in evidence; cloth, where
employed Is so richly trimmed with ap-
pliGue, braid and fur as to be quite re-
moved from the severity with which it
has been trated for the past few years
For indoor and evening gowns the ten
dency is toward all soft and diaphanous
materials These, even. are profusely
trimmed with lace. chiffon and ribbons
in every degree of fufIlness imaginable

NoBoDY's VETERANS.
Warriors Who Wear Medals and TO
Hungry.


London Express. ,-. 49,, -
Those old warriors who carried the gun
in the Mutiny and Crimea nave grey
ance They feel sore In contrasting tnelr
nav and privileges with the men OF TO-DAY.
E'or their services, they say, they were
accorded scanty thanks; ana many or
them are starving in garrets, or occupying
the places in the casual ward. 1t does
seem little hard in these days of highly
naid auxiliaries and the sQuandering Of
pp,tlSc funds in extravagant deals that
manv of these old fellows who did such
God work in a humble way, should be
Ssstitute A few make a living at street
corners selling the evening papers and
one old tottering patriarch lives by the
regular pence of certain clubman in Pail
Mall.
The existence of the destitute long-ser-
vice soldier, has always been a disgrace
to us; and In present times, when We
know the real value of fighting men with
Young blood in their veins, 1t seems
hard that these old warriors. who gave
their first twenty years of manhood to -
nation should be forgotten even by those
who control charitable funds, and who
have raised huge county totals in con-
nection with the present war.
Could not something be done by the
Patriotic Fund Commissioners or other
bodies to set aside a sum from the huge
mass of war collections to Danish deStl-
tuition from the hearths of this remnant
of the Old Brigade? II each county fund
committe4 set aside / per cent OF It's
collection the object would be nearly
achieved and with little help an ade-
quate fund for the old fellows would be
provided.

his Panama by holding 1t out of the car

"Of course they hadn't any business
