BIG HAT HELD
PACIFIC EMPRESS
PITTSBURG, Apr. %.

PITTSBURG, Apr. %.
There vas whole peck Of trouble
at the East Liberty station on the
Pennsylvania railroad the other morn
ing The Pacific express was five min
utes late in getting away after it had
stopped to let off a pretty girl who
came over from New York. She had
on her new Easter hat and 1t was a
dream, Ii was as big as dining room
table, and that's what caused the
Pacific express to leave five minutes
late.
The young woman put on her hat
before the depot was reached, and
when the train stopped she started out
of the Pullman at brisk gait. Sud
denly there was grinding noise, and
the young woman came to a stop The
aisle along the side of the Pullman
was not wide enough for the hat when
it was on top of the young woman's
head. The conductor was shouting
that the train would have to start, and
there was all kinds of excitement.
Then the porter started to push the
young woman from amidships, but it
wasn't t any use.
Finally one Of the male passengers
made suggestion, which was acted
upon. The young woman removed half
dozen hat pins, and, after much care
fnl r1RnpnUnrino fha h,t 80
did also the varnish on both sides of
the car. The hat was then tipped side
wise, the young woman got out and
the Pacific express got away. The hat
which caused all the trouble measured
80 inches from stem to stern.

Earlier Straw Hat Season,

A Philadelphia halter predicts-per.
haps the hope is father TO the predic-
tion-that straw hats will be seen in
general use much earlier this year than
ever before. THE old CUSTOM" says
the Quaker City merchant, used to
make the open season for the straw
lid extend from Memorial day to Sept.
l, but the college boys have started
the custom of wearing straw hats early
and late and have about broken up the
old dates. Every year the start is
earlier and the end later. Out at the
University of Pennsylvania the first
straw hats are worn at the Princeton
Pennsylvania baseball game, which is
always played on the first Saturday in
May, and the light headgear Is kept on
deck until October. At Princeton the
boys put on their straw hats in March
II 1t is warm enough and keep them
on until November. You see the col
ioge boys own the town up there, and
they can do about as they please in the
matter Of dress. At any rate, these
college boys have their imitators in the
would be bloods about town, and as n
result the straw hat season has been
extended a full month, and we hatters
are already preparing for the rush"
