The popularity to be expected for
hats of the felts, for dressy wear,
from what was discovered in investiga-
tions of the new millinery of a month
ago, is being verified in their accept
ance among our most sagacious mill
liners and in their willing adoption
by well-advised fashionable ladies.
They will be extensively worn, espe-
cially those of the softer qualities of
the plain material. Miroir velvet seems
still to be the choice in the millinery
textile materials for the objective ere
alton of the richest of the autumn and
winter hats; while gold and silver It's
sues have been employed 1atterly as
combining fabrics, and some of the
most elegant and attractive of the
recently produced models are con-
structed effectively of feather-faced
cloth-smal1 quill feathers also being
laid over naked frames as covering.
Velvet ribbons, and hemmed piece
velvet cut bias, vary the limp taffeta
and soft satin ribbons in the latest
trimming and finish of the new head
wear; and gold and silver grenadine
ribbons, and gold and silver galloons.

of some very dainty and handsome of
the latest of the new models.-Milh-

Horseback Ride of 300 Miles.

The most wonderful straight away
ride ever made by a man was the
gallop of Francis Xavier Aubrey-ci-
devant Canadian voyageur, and a
famous Pony Express rider-from
Santa Fe, N. M, to Independence.
Mo, Sin 1853-SO0 miles in five days
thirteen hours.
In 1852 he had covered the same
distance in a little over eight days,
and his record was on the wager of
$1,000 that he could do it in an even
eight" In the whole distance he did
not stop to rest and changed horses
only with every 100 or 200 miles. He
was a stocky French Canadian, light
hearted, genial, adventurous, abso-
1utely fearless.
For some time he was an overland
freighter; and he also made the enor-
mously difficult and dangerous drive
of a flock of sheep from New Mexico
to California across the deserts of
the Colorado. He was killed in Santa
Fe.-McClure's Magazine.

tailor suits this season are borrowed
from the styles in mems wear. The
cutaway coat is the model for one of
the most fashionable styles of the sea-

also serves as a model from which
have been developed some extremely
good styles In long coats one sees
in replica the paddock coat worn by
men. Ideas, again, have been bor-
rowed from the dinner coat and the
evening coat In waistcoats, revers,

Tip-tilted Hats.

The side-tilting of hats, as well as
the tobaggan slide directions, are no
longer the same marvellous sights. for
the eye is getting quite used to them.
Twice as many hatpins are needed,
and such superbly jeweled ones as
are used make lesser ones look ex-
tremely out of date. The tendency of
plumes is to end upon the hair in the
back ,and is quite definitely accepted.
They should not be worm however,

en-, those who fall below five feet
nine or ten, but naturally there will
not be any such discrimination All

John quincy Adams House.

open to visitors. 1t contains many In
teresting articles owned by the Ad-
ans family and used during the period
when the house was occupied by John
and Abigail.
This house has a more than passing
interest from the fact that it was
there Abigail wrote the famous let
ters to her husband while the latter
was attending the continental con-
gress in Philadelphia. Alone with heI
son, John Quincy Adams, she passed
many lonely days and nights waiting
for the return of the husband and
father and the close of the war that
was to mean so much to them.
AS related in her letters, the house
was besieged with weary soldiers ev
cry day on their way to Boston. As
she wrote to her husband: my house
is in confusion; soldiers coming in fol
lodging, for breakfast, for supper, fol
drink Sometimes refugees from Bos
ton, tired and fatigued, seek an asy
lum for day, night, a week"
This old house, like all buildingi
erected in it's day, is provided with
ample fireplaces, but those glow
ing hearths were not sufficient tt
keep the place warm during the terri
bly, cold winter of 1775-1776, when Mr.
Adams vas away, and Abigail, writing
to him, often had to stop in her cor
respondence because the ink had fro
zen and her fingers were numb witt
the cold
And yet, despite the difficulties un
der which she lived, it was in this
house that Abigail Adams wrote al
this time to her husband: Let us sep
arate from the kings party. Let US
renounce them, and instead of supplf
cation, as formerly. let US beseect
the Almighty to blast their counself
and bring to naught all their devices

saIutes and corsets.

Among the odd official decisions
published in Berlin is that of the
Prussian railway administration on
point of etiquette advanced by sta,
ton master on the lower Rhine, who
asked for a ruling as to whether the
young women subordinates in his of.
fee should not recognize him first on
the street, instead of waiting to be
saluted, according to the prevailing
custom. The government directed
the station master to salute first.
The principal of the girls high
school at Searbruck inquired of the
provincial government if she was au-
thorized to forbid young women to
wear corsets during gymnastic exer-
cises- The government authorized
their rigid prohibition.-New York

Fine Eyelet Embroidery.

The fancy for eyelet embroidery is
Just as much a craze as ever, and it
would almost seem as though it were
summer, not winter, that is close at
hand, to judge by the demand for
this work. But in truth there is no
marked difference between the after
noon gown for summer and the the
sater gown for winter that are now
fashionable. The model that for the
moment is SO extremely popular
serves equally well for one or the
other. A plated skirt of silk null
has above the second f1ounce a band
of the embroidery. The entire waist
with basque frills and sleeves is of
the same embroidery, and, while ex-
tremely simple in general design, is
most expensive. The design original
1y intended for street gown has been
improved upon by being made with
trained skirt. and is in black colors
as well as white.-Harper's Bazar.

Old Orange Tree Still Prolific.

Trait Crump brought to the Bee Of
flee to-day several specimens of the
fruit from what he considers one of
the most remarkable orange trees in
California. The tree is SIS years old,
but shows no sign of intention of go
ing out of business.
In 1S49 Thomas Hanna, an early
day auctioneer. returned to these
shores from a visit to the Sandwich
islands with the tree in a small oyster
can. He presented it to Mrs. Crump
in 1851, after having provided a box
for the tree and nursed it's growth un-
til it was three feet high.
The highest yearly yield from the
old tree has been 1,5OO golden globes,

TWO TowED TO SEA BY A SHARK
Fishermen Encounter Big One Tangled
Up in Their Travis


With an immense shark furnishing
the power, Joseph Bent and William
Jason have broken all records in
South channel, near Cape Cod. They
are members of the crew of the fish
ing schooner Frances ". Silva, which
arrived here this morning, says a dis
patch from Boston, Mass. Their story
is sustained by other members of the
crew Eho witnessed their experience.
Bent and Jason were out in a dory
hauling their trawl. They had pulled
in about half of it when they felt
jerk and then tremendous pull.
Then an immense shark, apparently
as big as the dory, came to the sur
face with a dozen Of the hooks on
the trawl imbedded in him. He
lashed the water furiously and then
with a sudden turn started off in the
direction of the equator.
1T was all SO sudden that we didn't
know what happened said Bent.
Jason and l grabbed the sides of the
boat and away we scooted. The shark
kept straight ahead. There was a
heavy sea running and according to
the men who were near US we were
hidden in the spray raised by the
swift passage of the dory. through the
water. Jason recovered his wits first
and slashed at the trawl with his
sheath knife. He succeeded in cutting
it and let the shark have it all to him.

Her Weddina Slippers.

The slippers that were worn by
Mrs. Lorillard Spencer, who before
her recent marriage at Newport was
Miss Mary Sands, will give an origin
al idea to some of the future brides
who are anxious to have everything
of the latest. Her slippers were of
soft satin. and had the highest and
most beautiful fashioned French
heels, says the Philadelphia Tele-
graph. At the insteps were tiny
rosettes of orange blossoms. With
these were worn the prettiest of
stockings, worked with hand en-
broidery and inset with long medal
lions of duchess lace A pair of hand
embroidered stockings such as these

Squirrels this year are more pIenti-
full than ever known before One
man, Mr. Williams, is known to have
killed more than any other two hunts
men, He has already killed 1S6.
He had three Waterbury watches
He would get into the woods and go
to two hickory trees where the squir-
rels feed. He would wind the
watches up, put them in small tin
can and to each can a string. Then
each was tied to the limb of a tree.
Then he would get in some secluded
spot AS the watches would tick

squirrel cutting nut and could be
heard for a great distance. Every
squirrel in the neighborhood would be
drawn to the trees, where they sup
posed their companions were having

rel has been killed by being decoyed
in those two trees by this new device.
