MARY GARDEN WORE "THEM."
And New York Got Real Excited over
the Double Hobble Skirt.

New York, Nov. IA double bar
relied hobble skirt appeared on Fifth
avenue for ten very exciting minutes
yesterday and then melted into the
Plaza hotel and was lost to view. But
the interesting sartorial innovation
had rather big time during its brief
swift stroll from the Hotel st. Regis
at Fifty-fifth street, to the Plaza, four
blocks further up.
To all effects the frock had been
plated narrow from waist to ankle,
but as the wearer hastily ran across
the avenue to escape a green motor
bus it was evident that it really con-
sisted of a pair of extra narrow hob
BILE skirts-one for each leg of the
wearer.
More than forty women and not a
few men waited on the pavement to
see the wearer of the double barreled
toddle skirt take up her line of march
again, but seeing her audience, she
hailed a passing taxi and was whirled
to the Plaza.
And everyone gasped and said:
Isn't 1t just like Mary Garden to
spring a frock like that?"
For the wearer of the new and un-
hobbled hobble skirt was none other
than Mary Garden.

Astapova, Russia, Nov. 17.--Count
Tolstoi's malady up to o'clock this
afternoon had taken no definite, turn

ported that Count Tolstoi desires q
reconciliation with the Greek church.
from which he was communicated
following the publication of his work,
Resurrection" in 1901. According to
today's papers the holy synod held a
secret session yesterday at which the
relations of the count and the church
were discussed.
Astapova, Russia, Nov. 1.-THE
condition of Count Tolstoi at this
hour, 1850 a. m, practically is not
beyond hope of recovery. Only his
intimates VINO nave been with him
since his flight from Yasnaya Poliana
are permitted at the bedside.
The authors wife and others of the
family who have come here have
been refused admission to the room
in which the husband and father is
lying lest their unwelcome presence
excite the patient.
Tula, Russia, Nov. 17.-Count Leo
Tolstoi is still alive and even said to
be slightly improved this morning.
His condition, however, continues
critical and for many hours the symp-
toms have been such as to give rise
to frequent reports that the end had
come. Such a report eminated from
MnGpnu o.
time before its untruth could be es.
tablished.
The aged author passed a restless
night at the home of the station mas
ter at Astapova, to which he was
removed when illness seized him dur
ing his attempted pilgrimage from
Shamardino to the Caucasus where he
had hoped to end his days in solitude.
At o'clock this morning the count
was sleeping. His temperature,
which was 101 last night, had fallen
to 100. The inflammation of the lungs
was less menacing. On the other
hand the pulse was alarmingly higher
and intermittent. The weakness of
the heart action was the cause of the
greatest anxiety and the physicians
were prepared to resort to the use of
oxygene. The case was aggravated
by the condition of the kidneys, which
were greatly swollen and intiamed.
Hasn't Seen the Countess.
Countess Tolstoi has not been ad-
mitted to the sick chamber and even
the fact of her arrival has been con-
cealed from Tolstoi lest knowledge of
her coming may over-eXcite him. The
count was not pleased when the pres
ence of his son Sergius was made
known to him.
When Sergius entered the room
and was recognized by his father, Toll
stoi was plainly angry and showed his
annoyance by asking:
"Why did you come? How did you
know that | was here?"
The younger Tolstoi pretended he
had learned his fathers whereabouts
from a railroad conductor, but the
count was not satisfied with this eX-
PLANTATION.
At the same time Tolstoi was de-
lighted at the arrival of his friend
Count Vladimir Tschertkoff. The lat
ter remains constantly at the bedside
with the physicians and Tolstoi's
daughter, Alexandra.

conscious. His physicians have hum

Gov. Elect Foss, the Vermont born
governor-elect of Massachusetts, who
has undertaken to drive Henry Cabot
Lodge out Of the United States SEN
ate, is not going to find smooth sail
ing over the entire length Of the
course he has picked out. Lodge,
with all his brllliancy and remark
able intelligence, has lost strength
during the past two years because Of
his afflliation with Aldrlch, the in
teretss" man in the upper house Of
congress, and his defeat for a re-elec-
ton is not improbable. At the same
time the attitude of Foss. and espec-
tally the manner in which he has put
forward his opposition. will deve'ope
not a little criticism. In this connec-
ton the Springfield Republican says:
There are many who think that Mr.
Foss' political success this month

a popular uprising throughout the
country which was largely born OF
disgust with the high cost OF living

larger one had Mr.. Hamlin been the

has gone to his head, and is Liable to
work mischief to the public policies
which he honestly advocates. Are
there no spots upon the political gar
ments of Mr.. Foss? Has his free
handed spending Of money to achieve
results at the polls been for the bene
fit OF our political life? In the impet
uosity. the rancor and the wild inten
sity Of his charges has our governor
elect kept in touch with the best ira
ditions Of the commonwealth and tina
high respect which ought to attach t
our governor? 1t is time for him t
recognize that there is a glass house
in his own neighborhood. The effec
of bombast Is to weary the public anC
to beget reaction unfavorable to tn,
