s0ClETY's TATTOO CRAZE.

Philadelphia Women Have Had Ever
lasting Bushes Attached to Cheeks.
Hidden in an upper room Of the ex-
elusive Racket club In Philadelphia a
famous London tattooer is now engag-
ed In etching all kinds of designs upon
the skins of Philadelphia's fashionable
society folk.
His work is not confined to the mas
culine element either, and for that rea-
son there is real commotion The
artists speciality is tattooing a blush
upon feminine cheeks, the kind of a
blush, it is said, that lasts forever
and that nothing can dim There are
couple Of women who have had this
done, but the prime cause Of conten-
tion In the Walnut and Spruce street
belt is the desire of certain debutantes
and matrons to have various figures
tattooed upon their upper arms, backs
and on the lower limbs. Dragon gar
ters and interlacing snakes are the
decoration most favored in the latter
case.

MARATHON's ITALIAN VICTOR.
Dorando Pietri Tells How He Won the
New York Race.

Dorando Pietri Tells How He Won the
New York Race.
That Dorando Pietri did far from
what he is capable of in the Marathon
race at Madison Square Garden, New
York, Thanksgiving eve was his opin-
Ion as given in an interview to
New York World reporter the other
night
Why, do you know" said Dorando,
while training l always run the mile
in less than six minutes, but in my
race with Hayes the majority Of the
miles required more than six minutes.
what do think Of Hayes?
think great deal more of him than
did in London, for 2:56:1s 2-5, which
was Hayes time in England, is very
slow for the Marathon.
"My policy was to keep ahead of
Hayes all the time, and Il had little
trouble in doing so. At the beginning
of the race / was a little nervous, as
always am, but soon got over that,
and after the fifteenth mile l knew
that all I had to do was to keep cool.
did not plan to run away from Hayes
until the last mile, and when the time
came for the squirt I had plenty Of
speed left and could have gone faster
IL had needed to. didn't have much
practice for the race. / ran only
eleven times between the London and
the New York race.
"Was tired after the race? Oh,
no. sat up and chatted with friends
until o'clock and then got up at in
the morning and took four mile walk
after breakfast
Il am ready to run Longboat or any
body else. shall stay in this country
for two months. and want to get as
many races as possible. incidentally
want to see as much of the country
as possible. like America very much,
and was very much impressed with
the splendid demonstration in my hon
or on the night Of the race"
In response to a question as to how
he explained his collapse at London
Dorando said: 81 had no attendants
during the last two miles, and my
throat was parched, and my head was
so hot that thought it would burst.
But I am quite sure that I could have
finished without help. The officials
who lifted me up were my undoing.
How long have been running? Five
years, but two of them spent in the
army"
Dorando Pietri is fancy confec-
toner by trade, and his home is at
Carpi, in the province of Modena,
southern Italy. His inseparable COM
panion is his brother, Alpiano Pietri.
Dorando weighs at present about 13O
pounds and is about five feet eight
inches tall. He says that he is much
over weight and expects to train down
to 120 for his next race,

Heavy Clothes For AutomobiIists.

Woolen mills to weave fabrics for mems
apparel of most extraordinary thick
ness" recently remarked a Philadel-
phia importer. 81 can show you sam
pies of cloth of almost three times the
weight of ordinary winter goods. They
are made of such heayiness to give ad-
equate protection to those who will not
let the severest weather keep them
from their loved diversion of motoring.
For making up suits Of such extra sheft'
the tailors of course have to charge a
good deal more than for their custom

clothes will ask from S110 to $125 for

CONFEDERATE FLAGS.
Tho Stars and Bars and Then the Red
Battlefield.


Battleflas.
The first Confederate flag was the
stars and bars, a blue field and three
stripes, one. white and two red, and
on the blue field seven white stars In
a circle, a star for each state that up
to that time had seeded. In battle,
however, it was seen that this banner
bore altogether too close resemblance
to the stars and stripes, and thus
there came into use the Confederate
battlef1ag, the origin Of which seems
to have been as follows:
This is the statement of General
William l.. Cabell: when the Con
federate army commanded by General
Beauregard and the Federal army con-
fronted each other at Manassas, it was
seen that the Confederate flag and the
stars and stripes looked at distance
so much alike that it was hard to dis
tinguish one from the other. General
Beauregard, thinking that serious mis-
takes might be made in recognizing
our troops after the battle of July Is,
at Blackburn Ford, ordered that q
small badge should be worn on the left
shoulder by our troops and, as I was
chief quartermaster, ordered me to
purchase large amount Of red fan
mel and to distribute it to each regi-
ment."
This Confederate battlefag was
adopted in September, 1861, and was
designed by Generals Johnston and
Beauregard. Red was it's color, with a.
blue st. Andrews cross reaching from
corner to corner and white stars on
the cross representing the different
southern states. The women Of the
south made these flags by hundreds
out Of their red and blue silk dresses.
Miss Constance Cary, who afterward
became Mrs. Burton Harrison, the well
known novelist, was one Of the three
southern girls who made the first three
battlefags. = Magazine of American

Bryan,s Confession.

A confession that startles the
Bryan following has been made by
Mr. Bryan In his Commoner. 1t Ia
to the effect that the Democratic par
ty is impotent in its ability as an
opposition to the Republican party
and that Socialism is the only thing
that will be able eventually to defeat
the Republican party. The confess
. sion Is an admission of his poor lead
ership and a notification that he be-
lieves the Democratic party is on the
verge OF disintegration. The New
York World comments in part as fol-
lows on Bryan's confession:
Mr.. Bryan in a Commoner editor
ial on "The Growth of Socialism"
warns the Republicans that they
may boast of their victory" but that
Just as the Populist party grew I'M
til 1t compelled consideration Of the
abuses that led to its organization.
80 the Socialist party will grow un-
til;it forces those ut the head of the
Government to look into the wrongs
That are done and to apply remedies. .
What an astonishing confession of
Democratic impotence under the
Bryan leadership! 1t is the Demo-
cratic Opposition that should compel
the party in power Ito look into the
wrongs that are done and to apply
remedies That is what an opposi-
tion is for. Yet Mr.. Bryan sitrren-
ders this function to the Socialists,
apparently convinced that the great
Democratic party is powerless to do
its own work.
