few days ago for being disorderly and
creating a nuisance, made bold but
unsuccessful attempt at self-destruc-
ton. He had been confined with a
couple of other prisoners in a large
cell. In some manner unobserved he
had broken an empty ink bottle and.
securing the sharpest and most jaggy
piece of glass remaining, watched his
chance and sawed deeply into his left
wrist in an attempt to sever the ar
teries. His Jail companions presently
noticed the blood streaming upon the
cell floor, and. grabbing the fellow,

Where Wishes Are
Considered Powerful

" HE custom Of wishing. and according
efficacy to certain objects and places
In the granting of wishes is old as
the Garden of Eden. Indeed. the desire to
definitely wish for something and to watch
for the fultillment of the wish has chung TO
humanity with strange pertinacity.
In the old world there are many cities
and towns harboring rustic places, such as
wells, stairs. stones and bridges. that are
credited with an infallible power to grant
wishes Happily. the idea seems to prevail
only about inanimate objects. for were
chattering individuals intrusted with grant
ing wishes strange tales might often be
ruthlessy disclosed.
AT the ancient town OF Chester. in Eng
land. there Is a world removed flight of
wishing stairs. They stand by the wharf
from which the little boat leaves to sail
down the River Dee en- route possibly to
Elton Hail. the country place of the Duke
are crumbAng to ruin under the many hur-
RED feet and ardent wishes of those who
have tried to fulfill their memorable de-
mands. In order to obtain the wish these
stairs decree that the wsher must run up
and down three times while holding the
breath and thinking intently of the longed
for desire Naturally, this Is no simple
feat to accomplish, as the stairs are quite
long and the exertion Of running makes 1t
almost impossible not to renew the breath
These stairs, however, have behind them
the wisdom Of centuries. teaching them to
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1906-11-04

Impose this task. When wishes do not
come true they generally escape blame,
since 1t is likely that their demands have
not been met.
In all England there Is hardly a more
amusing sight than to sit at the foot OF
these stairs and watch the w1shers run
ming up and down. Not one out of fifty
accomplishes the task while holding the
breath Most of them are in their gaia
day mood, and often the friends that are
with them, by clapping and testing. cause
them to burst out laughing. to lose their
breath and SO to forfeit their chance OF
getting the wish. But one trial must be
made in a season, and for the opportunity
there Is no fee.
In the Yosemite valley the beautiful
Bridal Veil Falls is today regarded as
closely connected with fate and the grant
ing OF wishes. Indeed, every year stran-
gers from different parts OF the globe climb
with much difficulty to the narrow ledge
under its misty, flying spray and wish IN
tently for something that they fancy VIII
bring them happiness.
This legend originated probably when but
about fifty natives lived in the valley
There were then among them only two
young girls, one being POLITICALLY called the
'.Rose of Sharon and the other the Lily
| of the Valley" When the latter was at
length married to man from San Fran
cisco the ceremony took place under these
falls. 1t was at a season of the year when
the creek is no larger than an ordinary mill
stream and becomes. as soon as 1t takes
its perilous leap Of $40 feet, but q play
thing to the wind. The spray 1t then
tossed enveloped the lovely bride. mingling
with the veil over her face. The wishes
which she ardently whispered to the falls
were eventually granted. and have been
now for many years an inspiration to other
young girls, and matronS al well, to test
the same power.

SEYg HE horse show at Madison Square
Garden, New York, is the au-
tumn clothes show, and as an
III exhibition of DIR, has no equal.
From all over this country people
come for this annual event and the end
and aim of every woman is to appear more
smartly gowned than her neighbor, and In
7 cidentaliy to see what said neighbor Is
wearing.
For weeks ahead dressmakers, tailors.
milliners furrers and jewelers. are busy
getting up special designs which, now for
the first time displayed before the public,
are expected to receive the mark OF public
approval This is the date when odd fads
make their first appearance. Some woman
noted for her taste and originality in
clothes sees At to attempt some eccentricity
of detail straightway that eccentricity is
noted copied or rejected. Taken altogether,
it is not to be wondered at that tie autumn
horse show is an event indeed.
Fashions have changed greatly since the
first Madison Square horse show, and in
fact quite different style of dress now
prevails 1t is not considered smart to
wear an elaborate cloth gown with trailing
skirts in the morning. At that time of the
day the rather severe tailormade effects
are considered correct not the too severe,
however. and this year there is more than a
touch of femininity about these tailored
as regards finish of the mems morning suits.
The lingerie waist, the colored velvet collar
a touch of contrast in the waistcoat. even
when there IS braiding elaborate
trimming, show that the too severe models
are not much in favor. Extremely smart.
all the same, are these tailor-made cloth
gowns, perfect in cut and finish, skirt short
enough to clear the ground and at the same
time to give glance a the immaculate
shoes. There is an exceptionally short skirt
that is worn this year but it is too eXag
gerated to be classed among the best styles
invisible plads and checks in cheviots,
tweeds and camers hair materials, serge in
blue, much becircled and idealiZed out of
all resemblance to the ordinary; everyday
blue serge costume. and smooth cloths also.
These latter, with little or no trimming,
are tremendously popular. There most
charming shades of color in the darker
grays and tans, really light browns, that
make up we'll in this style of gown, while
tweeds are becoming and effective, although
they require to be well made and carefully
fitted, for as is the case with all absolutely
plain clothes, the defects are more notice
able than when there Is lot OF trimming.
The only occasion for appearing elabo-
rately clad at the horse show fore noon
is when there Is to be luncheon and an
immediate return to the garden Then It
is possible to appear only for short time
before luncheon hour gowned most elabo-
rately in preparation for the afternoon. Most
elaborate, indeed are the costumes that are
worn for the afternoon-cloth OF the finest
texture, velvet. and even thin materials halt
hidden under the luxurious cloth. Fur
wraps are all in keeping. Such a variety
OF style and such endless range Of color
were surely never known as this season.

gown is of the chiffon, or chiffon cloth
trimmed with bands Of the cloth. Over botf
the cloth and chiffon is the embroidered de-
sign in varied shades OF leaves. Velvet IL
often used in place Of the cloth and the
embroidery is In silk. satin and velvet
These gowns are complete in themselves
but the wrap or cloak worn with them must
be on the same order Of cloth. A long pale
gray velvet coat or wrap. trimmed with
chinchilla or sable, is In itself a handsome
garment, and worn over gray gown, such
as Just described. IL we'll worth the price
asked for it, and that 1t is a goodly sum Ia
easily understood. The long fur wrap. chin
chilla or sable, that Dame Fashion recon-
mends for her followers who do not have to
consider expense is. however, too costly for
the majority Of womankind to possess, and
consequently the cloth garment Is more
often seen. There are, however. shorter
wraps Of the most costly furs that are ex-
pensive enough to suit the most extrava-
giant. Again, chinchilla and sable lead IN
the race for popularity, but there are any
number Of less costly furs that are effective
and fashionable This matter of smart
wrap must be carefully considered for the
horse-show outfit and no end Of trouble Is
taken to have it smart, becoming and orig
inal The expensive fur wrap can be worn
with all gowns, but the cloth or satin one
must be more carefully planned to accord
with the gown.
Altogether. as may readily be imagined,
the fashionable costume for horse show
week is comprehensive enough for a brides
trousseau, when the morning costume, the
afternoon and the evening gowns, the
wraps, the furs, the hats and all the minu-
tiae are considered, for the same morning
gown cannot be worn every day, nor the
afternoon one be seen more than twice. and
yet the prudent, practical woman brings for
ward the argument that to wait until the
great event takes place means that 1t is far
e4sier to plan out the winters outfit after
seeing so many good gowns than 1t Is to de-
eide beforehand. At all events, there are the
clothes to be seen. and at the same time
there is an unexampled opportunity to wear
suited.
