THE RAFFIA HAT.

"A New Form of Headgear Which
 Comes From the Philippines.
 Think of looking to the Philippines for fashions, and yet the modern Amer ican girl has borrowed a smart touch from her Filipino sister, and it is even more becoming to her fairness than to the bronze hues of the originator.
 It is the rafiia hat, and it is something entirely new. Raffia is grass, and a grass hat doesn't sound very fetching, does it? But the raffia hat which the fashionable girl is wearing is just the smartest thing imaginable. It is odd enough and original enough to make every woman who sees it want one.
 The raffia hat is made on a wire frame. Strands of raffia are either braided or twisted so that they entirely cover the frame of the hat. Raffia is as light as feather and can be dyed any color, and little less than one-fourth of a pound. which can be bought for fifteen cents, is sufficient for making a hat with green raffia twisted about the wire frame. t.is trimmed with a big red velvet bow, and where the brim fiared at the left side cluster of bright red cherries are caught. This was all but the hat was unusually effective. Its price mark in one of the big New York shops was eighteen dollars. It cost the smart girl who copied it and made it herself just ss.5O.
 She selected becoming wire frame. for which she pair thirty-three cents. She used fifteen cents worth of raffie.
 The cherries cost $1.S0; there were three punches. The ribbons for the bow, which took three yards, was $1.20. making a total expenditure of s3.50. For summer wear at the sea or in the country the raffia hat is the millinary fad of the day. Pale yellow hats of raffia trimmed with black velvet daisies with yellow centers are extremely eff fective, as well as mauve hats trimmed with pale lavender hyocinths.
 Now that the modern girl has diccov- cred raffia, or, more correctly speaking, has borrowed it from the Filipino wo- man, she is also learning to weave 1t into belts and chatelaine bags. This grass. which is species of palm. may be woven into Very attractive portferes, and also made into mats of all sizes. The mats may beused to take the place of do1lies on the table, and the larger ones are very convenient addition to baby's carriage. -Woman's Companion.

States and Mexico, and wintering from
 the Southern States to the West Indies
 and northern South America. Like all
 migrants, their journeeyings are more or less dependent upon the available food supply; they require fish, and they
 must go where they can get it. In the early spring, however, they start north
 ward again, and about the first week in April they may be seen moving along the coast of New Jersey or Connecticut, in scattered focks of eight or ten, sail ing on outspread wings or Tapping in a leisurely manner, crossing and recross- ing each others pathways, bound for their summer homes. They have a
 rather long nesting period for birds which usually lay but once in season. In the vicinity of New York city they begin to lay during the latter part of April, and last July I@found a nest on the Connecticut coast, with young ones which certainly would not have left l their home before the first of August. Ospreys sometimes breed in colonies; sometimes in single pairs. The site se- lected for a nest is usually large tree,
 often dead one, putin many cases the top of a deserted building, an old wind
 mill, or telegraph-pole is appropria- ted. In some places the birds will build
 on the side of a cliff, and rarely on the ground. They are shaid to mate for life, and return year: after year to the same nest, to which a new layer is add | ed each spring, until the structure as- sumes enormous proportions, being four
 or five feet in diameter and perhaps
 several feet in height. Last spring l saw several nests which were about ! five feet high and fully four feet across | the top. These huge structures were I made chiefly of sticks, which had been gathered by both the parent birds, and were lined with seaweed, moss, fibrous
 bark and other soft materials. In such nests are laid the eeggs, usually three E E!.E .GA -tt-T-t

A TRUE SPORTSMAN.

If there is true sportsman on the western continent, surely the American osprey or fish-hawk may claim the title. No slaughterer of game is he; he takes what he requires for food alone: He does not take his finny prey by thou sands in a net, nor does he poison them, nor blow them up and pick their float ing carcasses from the surface of the water; neither does he use deceit, and lure them to destruction by promise of food. He takes them one at time, as a sportsman should, using naught but his own good limbs and the skill which comes of practice. Taking his life in his hand, so to speak, he personally descends into the element of his prey, not knowing whether he will rise again into the sunlight or be dragged to the depths, conquered and dying, by some monster he can neither overcome nor release. An, how I love his wild, free hunting call, as he sweeps far out over some arm of the ocean, to ride like a living cloud, high above the white-caps; not even the hymn of the wood-thrush, rising calm in the hush of summer evening, can stir my soul like this.
 The osprey is one of the largest as we'll as one of the handsomest of our birds of prey, measuring about twenty four inches from the tip of his bill to the end of his tail, and upwards of five feet six inches across his outspread wings. His upper parts are dusky brown, his under parts white, and his head and neck strikingly marked with brown and white. The markings of male and female are alike, except that the latter always has grayish- brown streaks on her breast, while the former may CT may not be streaked.
 Ospreys are migratory hawks, breed- ing from Hudson Bay and Alaska southward throughout the United

gard said that they had gotten to a
lonely place on Colorado avenue. when
he was struck and knocked down by
Page and his money taken from him.
Marshal O'Neil at once took up the
quest for Page. He could not locate
him till along toward morning. Page
had gone to the depot to express his
baggage and this gave the clew that
he was going to attempt to get out of
town.
About four O'Clock he received a
call from the depot that gave him the
information that his man was there
attempting to board night freight
train for Glenwood Springs.
When he reached the depot he found
his man hurrying down the track in
an attempt to evade the officers. but
he was overtaken and captured and
locked in jail.
