LIMP A LA MODE.

Will the new feminine limp become fashionable in London? asks the Lon don Mirror.
 This is the question women are ask ing on learning the statement that up- to-date Parisiennes have affected a fascinating little limp.
 Most changes of modes necessitate to a certain degree a new manner of walking
 The directoire gown demanded a slow, gliding step; the de-beflounced petticoats of forners days canscd wn- men to toddle when they held up their skirts. Now comes the limp. which. it appears. is born. of the polonaise.
 Gowns with the polonaise or apron skirt have been the range in Paris" a representative of well known west end firm told the Daily Mirror yester- day. and we have brought over mod els of these gowns to London.
 They are wide around the feet. but are tied tightly below the knees
 The return of/the polonaise means many changes" the Daily Mirror was told. ''as there are so many varieties.
 Some very short skirts are to be introduced as worn in Paris. which reach only to the boot tops and dis play high-le legged. colored boots.
 ''The limp is probably the result of the polonaise. which is fastened tight ly around between the knees and the ankles.
 Any attempt to hold up this style of dress would necessitate some kind of eccentricity of walk"
 A model new evening gown shown in polonaise fashion is quite short in front. and with a train at the back. The feet and several inches of stock Ing are visible and the wearer of this gown would cause as much sensation as did the manakins who first donned the slashed directoire gowns in Paris.
 The limp is a refined form of con tortlon which follows on numerous others to which the fashionable wo- man has recently had to submit.
 First, she was allowed to disclose the possession of hips. then hips. be- came an 'unacknowledged asset.
 Then there was the geographical problem of the waist. From the nor- nal waist the waist line has been moved to under the arms, the low waist was obtained and the ro-waist fashion has prevailed.
 One might almost say that the ad- option of the new gowns may give a woman the appearance of having two waists. one below the knees in -addi- tion to the ordinary waist

 DEATH OF C. o. LEWiS-C. O. Lewis died yesterday afternoon at the - Sisters hospital after a long illness He came here for his health about two years ago.

 FRESH FROM AVIATION FIELD -H1s l. Latham returned yesterday from Los Angeles. where he has been on business. After he had disposed of it he made hurried run out to the .aviation field and saw the planes go round. If he should go out of the real estate business he would become an aer6naut. T. w. Chamberlain re- turned the day before from Dos Angeles. Mir. Chamberlain says it is impossible to describe the excitement which takes possession of the crowd on the field while watching the maneuvering airships. He saw Paul. han go after the. height record, but the most striking performance was one that no one was expecting. While another thing was being done. Paul. han made jaunt out into the coun- try, and while the crowd was think ing about something else he returned to the field from the rear of the grand stand, sailed over it low down and settled on the ground in front of it. A marvellous thing is the French mans <manner of alighting. He set ties down upon the bicycle wheels at tached to his machine without the slightest appearance of a jar.

After three failures, George

successfully negotiated the Simplon
pass at an altitude of 1000 feet in
his menOplane and at 2 o'clock was

the $4,000 prize offered the first
aviator to successfully make the
flight, between the dates of Sep

Chavez was last reported passing
Simplon Kuhn and appeared to be

his trip being successful, since
