This Season

When one comes to the subject OF
fancy buckles and ribbons or silk
belts, description falters, for the
buckles of the day are legion and are
of all grades of beauty and value. Many
handsome designs are turned out in
old-fashioned canoes and in coral and
the semi-precious stones, and imita-
lions of these stones are used in every
imaginable way.
Amethyst topaz, tourmaline and
chrysoprase are particularly liked by
the designers, but of course vast ma
jority of the designs are turned out
in cheap limitations of these stones.
Hand-wrought buckles, unique in de-
sign and made by artist craftsmen,
are sold by the jewellers, but Of course
bring high prices. One worker in
precious stones and metals has made
a specially of designs in wrought cop
per and Mexican opals shading into
the copper tints and has produced
some extraordinarily beautiful buck
les, particularly certain ones of Egyp-
tian design.
The iridescent interior of the alb
alone shell is also used in combination
with metal for beautiful buckles, and
malachite, lapis, jade, paste, all the
jewels of semi-precious character,
have their uses for the buckle-design-
er's art.
Metal buckles of great beauty with
out stones are also made and just
now graceful shapes in gold or silver,

over their entire surface, are much ad-
mired.-F'rom the American Register,

The woman who takes as her life
motto DO it at once" is the woman
who is not bounded by an accusing
forgiveness is chiefly for things we
have not done.
The only time one is sure of is the
present; putting off to some more con-
venient moment is to lay up a reputa-
ton for rudeness or slovenliness.
The woman who believes that to
apologize is TO accuse will rarely have
to back water on her belief if she
gets into the do-it-at-once habit.
Do it at once is but another name
for the little drops of water" pre-
cept of childhood. The mighty
ocean" of accumulated duties will
never swamp you if each wave is
breasted as it comes.
Doing it at once is like oiling a
dusty pike. 1t. smooths the path of
life and smothers complaint and criti
cism.
Much of the fret and nerve rack
ing comes from postponing the things
that might just as well be cleared
off at once. One is worried until
they are done, and more worried if
they are not done.
The girl who sews the first rip
never has to take day off for mend
ing.
The housekeeper who writes down
an order when the cook says it is
wanted; who cleans off one finger
mark, rather than huge smears; who
believes in Strengthening up when
needed, rather than spasms of clean
illness, is the one whose household
machinery never gets clogged.
The woman who puts an advertise
ment in the paper when the cook
first gives warning rarely has to rough
en- her hands building the kitchen fire
and peeling potatoes.
The girl who answers her invita-

The woman who sends her checks
as soon as she gets her bills, who re-
turns her obligation calls within a

chic, for, worn with the proper back

Another garniture is in something the
form of a square bertha with long
ends depending down the back. This
is made of filet net and lace, daintily
touched here and there with sparkling
jet. This comes to us from France,

VIDMAR TIED WITH
MASTER SCHLECHTER.

PRAGUE, Bohemia, May 30.-Greatly
to the satisfaction of lovers of chess in
this city, NJ. Vidmar, after a stern
chase. succeeded at last in overtaking
c. Schlechter, of Vienna, and tying with
that master for first place in the inter-
national chess masters tournament, the
ninth round of which was played at the
exposition here today.
Vidmar was opposed by Bardeleben,
who succumbed to the Bohemian SUI
perior tactics, while Schlechter could
only draw with Leonhardt. The Ameri-
can, Marshall. was defeated by O.
Duras, also of this city. 1t was a great
day for the Bohemian school of chess
players, the more so as Kvicala won his
game from Spielmann. In the other
games Janowski won from Proxies, Ru-
bernstein defeated Mieses. Suechting
scored against Treybal n Salwe drew
with Alapin. The game between Rabin-
owitsch and Teichmann was adjourned
in an even position.

LEACH CROSS TOO
CLEVERF FLOR STURDY
YOUNG LOUGHREY
East Side Boxer Outpoints the
Philadelphia at Roman
A. c.

NEW YORK. May S0.-Leach Cross
put his knowledge of dentistry into
practical use in his fight with Young
Loughrey, of Philadelphia, at the Ro-
man A. c. last night. The clever young
dentist performed various operations on
the incisors and molars of his opponent,
albeit the Quaker was an unwilling pa
tient. In every round Cross landed
telling punches on Loughrey's mouth,
and after the second round the fighter
who stood six rounds of Terry McGov-
ern's pounding presented a CORY aspect.
Cross fought an exceedingly clever
battle, and Loughrey set a terrific pace,
but Cross kept up with him all the
way, and at the end the Philadelphia
was very tired. In the fourth round
Loughrey tore into Cross, swinging both
hands furiously, but Cross covered
neatly, and when Loughrey had shot
his bolt the dentist let loose a few that
he had been saving for the moment,
and L%oughrey heard the bell at the end
of the round as sweet music. At the
end Cross would have been entitled to a
decision on points, if one had been given
by the referee.
In the other bouts Sammy belmont
knocked out Lew Fisher in four rounds.
Ed Smith fought a draw with Jack

TERRY M'GOYERN PASSES
OUT OF PUGILISTIC GAME

that make men CHEEKY for a time but
which only hegets sorrow n re-
morse. Terry McGovern has zone into
retirement and it is no fake farewell.
Listen to a letter received from Joe
HUMPHREYS whom 1 knew when he
was a mere money chaser for other
sports who had the bank roll and who
gave Joe a chance to make a few dol
lars by placing their money. Joe
Humphries's greatest stock in trade
fifteen years ago was his name for
honesty. When he writes this letter to
a friend of fifteen years standing his
word can be taken for granted that
he is convinced that Terry the Terrible
is terrible no more. Here is the letter:
Dear Sir-You will do me a favor by
publishing the following in your sport
ing column:
II wish to announce the retirement
of Terry McGovern from the prize ring.
Never again will the little Brooklyn
whirlwind be seen in a real battle. His
showing in his recent fight with Spike
Robson was a bitter disappointment to
his many friends, and particularly my
self. After the bout was over l had a
heart-to-heart ak with Terry and con
WINGED him that his fighting days were
over.
TERRY has been fighting for fourteen
long years, during which time he met
and defeated all the greatest little men
the world could produce. Today he can
look the world in the face and say he
never was guilty of a dishonest act
during his career in the prize ring. Nc
Govern and his pal, Young Corbett,
will pay baseball and give boxing ex-
hibitions in the small W during
the summer months. In the fall Terry
will go into business.
"McGoveru is one of the very Few
fighters who have retired with a bank
roll. At the present time he a suf-
fcient funds to carry him over for the
next ten years, thanks to his friends,
who were not found wanting in his
hour of need.
Through McGovern's retirement the
prize ring has lost the greatest, gamest
little fighter that yer put on a glove,
He has requested me to thank the
sport-loving public for the kind and
generous treatment he has received
during his career, and also to thank
the many sporting writer's throughout
the country for the nice things they
said about him during his fourteen long
wears as a fighter. Yours sincerely,
JOE HUMPHREYS"
Good-by. Terry. If your friends had
told YOU the truth they would have
advised you three years g on that
Thanksgiving Day at Hartford, when
Young Corbett. fresh from the wilds of
Denver. sent you down for the count,
that vour fighting days were over.
You were the %squarest little fighter
who ever donned a glove. and more
than this can be said of no pugilist.

Possibility That Great Horse
May Start in Belmont
Stakes.

NEW YORK, May 30.-The conviction
expressed by all the connections of
James R. Keene's racing stable on
Thursday that the unbeaten colt Colin
was hopelessly broken down was
changed yesterday to belief that the
colt would recover so completely that
there is hope hat he nay be able to
start for the Belmont Stakes this after
noon.
The singular change in this belief. as
welcome as it is surprising to patrons Of
racing, is due to careful examination oil
the horse, which was under close obser-
walton all day yesterday by expert vet
erinarians. The result of these obserVa-
tions, completed in the evening with the
aid of Trainer James Rowe. when the
bandages which had been on the colts
legs all day were removed, convinced
the veterinarians that Colin would
stand for racing again. Last night II.

MILK FED HORSE
To run IN BIG
ENGLISH DERBY
Hatmaker's AzOte Has Never
Tasted Corn or Oats in
His Life.

LONDON, May 30.-In the English
Derby. which will be run next week, the
great August Belmont colt, Norman Il,
and the Vanderbilt starter. Seasick,
will have to meet in competition a horse
raised entirely on dried milk n a
small quantity of hay. This thorough
bred is Azote, which will be started by
j. R. Hatmaker, an American, who
raised him.
Azote is the most remarkable horse In
the country. He has never eaten a
grain of corn or oats, his food from
birth being dried milk and hay. He has
been raised on this as an experiment of
a scientific character, designed to show
that horses develop better and faster
on dried milk than on vegetable foods.
1t is claimed they work harder and
train better than horses undo usual
care. Hatmaker claims that, though
oats and corn may do for ordinary
horses, the thoroughbred Rseds some-
thing better in order that the best re-
suits may follow training.
Hatmaker has been experimenting for
some years. and he claims that in dried
milk he has found the greatest of all
horse feeds. Liquid milk was tried on
Azote, III he could not absorb enough
of the liquid to keep going. Then he
dried process was tried n has worked
admirably. Azote is fed seven times
daily, and altogether consumes sixteen
pounds of milk during the tw~enty-four
hours. This represents the nutritive
substances of eighteen gallons of liquid
milk.
The experiment is interesting horse
men throughout the country. and the
race of Azote will be watched with
interest.

NOT INJURED AS
BADLY AS F%IRSTTHOUGHT

De Courcey Forbes made a statement,
authorized by Mr.. Keene. as follows:
1.-The injury to Colin, which was ut
first thought to be the bowling of the
tendons of both fore legs, turns out in
the belief Of James Rowe, his trainer,
and DR.. McCully, the veterinary, to
have been caused either by stepping on
a stone or in a hole, resulting in a vio-
lent wrench. There is and has been no
soreness in either leg, and the horse has
never taken a lame step. the swelling
having subsidized as suddenly as 1T
came. His tendons are perfectly
straight.
I'm view of the interest and the at
tachment of the public for Colin and the
sympathy so feelingly expressed, Mr..
Keene wishes to let every n know of
the great improvement in the horse.
And that net only does he hope now
that Colin win race again, but that If
he passes the final examination to be
made by DIR. McCully and Mr.. Rowe on
Saturday morning, and 1t does not RAID,
he may run for the Belmont Stakes"
