the new riding movement. The superior
safety of the cross-saddle appeals to them.
The autumn golf season holds many al
lurements to President Taft. and he and
the other members of the presidential fam
lily will not come to the White House for
good until about the middle Of October.
The secretary of state will soon relieve
the first assistant secretary, Mr. Hunting
ton Wilson, so that the latter, who has been
at his post all through the heated term,
may leave Washington for vacation trip
with Mrs. Wilson. The latter has been
ranking official hostess here ever since the
scattering of the administration circle in
July. Her most important duty along this
line was the entertaining the royal prince Of
China.
When Prince Tsai Hsun's brother was
here in the spring, as head of the modern
Chinese army, fifteen automobiles were re-
quired to convey his attaches from place to
place, and more than threescore seats
were needed for their entertainment at a
place of amusement.

Of the late Senator Hanna, first rode up

Washington gasped and Miss Hanna was
voted just too western" for anything
Her daily ambles on horseback were at
tended by a gaping throng who openly
argued for and against the "straddlebug'
riding for women. Some pronounced the
new fad sensible" but the majority de-
clared IL entirely too radical to be gen
orally adopted and Washington feminnity
went calmly on it's side-saddle way.
All that is changed now. For many years
before athletic little Ruth Hanna unwit-
tingly startled Washington the girls of the
great west from those whose only mount
was the patient burro to those whose ia
theirs owned famous stables, had been rid
ing man fashion in the saddle Little by
little the west has converted the east to it's
way of thinking that the side-saddle for
women should be abandoned, both as I'M
safe and uncomfortable.
The southern girl held out firmly for the
side-saddle of her ancestresses. asserting
that the position astride a horse made a
woman look awkward and unfeminne The
southern girl has been the hardest to con-
vert. Even Miss May Howard, now Mrs.
Bloodorn, the best known woman rider in
| Washington society made her famous test
trip with the navy officers sitting the same
sort of a saddle her Maryland grandmotn-
eEs and grandaunts had ridden a hundred
years before. Yet Mrs. Bloodorn admits
that when playing polo she rides astride
and that she finds that position quite as
easy and graceful as the side-saddle seat
She also thinks that girl can learn 10 ride

TO BORDER HEROINE

A statue has been dedicated at Portage,
N. Y, to a singular figure in American
N Y, to a singular figure in American
Hiokatoo, one Of the most warlike and
cruel of all the Seneca chiefs. She was
captured and adopted among the Indians
when George Washington was a young
officer in his majesty's forces in America,
and yet there are people stlll alive who
have met her in the flesh, relates the New
York World.
1t has been said by Europeans that
Americans, living so close to the vast
romance of their early history, are al
most unconscious of it, and probably they
are right. How many people have heard
of Mary Jemison? Yet a great deal of
the border history of both New York and
Pennsylvania is dependent upon a book
that she wrote in her old age, because she
was in the thick of 1t all for nearly half
century. When Stone wrote his celebrated
life of Brant, more than seventy years ago.
he borrowed freely from Mary Jemison.
and her narrative is the sole authority
for the details of many important events.
Her husband, Hiokatoo, was much older
than she. and in many respects he was
the fiercest of barbarians. At Braddock's
defeat he captured two English soldiers
and afterward burned them both with his
own hand. His wife tesufies in her book
that he killed babies. generally tortured
captives, and that war was the very
breath of his being. But, she says, that
during the fifty years they lived together
he never spoke an unkind word to her and
always treated her with the greatest gem
tleness and consideration.
Mary Jemson did much to mitigate ths
sufferings Of women and children carried
away by the English and Iriuois after
their raids upon the Mohawk and Genesee
valleys. She lived past 80, and died re-
spected among the people on whom her
husband had made such cruel war.

NEW YORK, oct. 1-(Special to The
e)-The recent nervous breakdown Of
Mrs. Adolf Ladenburg, necessitating her
taking a long rest cure, emphasizes anew
the fact that the pace set by New York
society is pretty nearly the pace that kills.
The demands on the time and strength
of society woman who IS at all popular
are almost beyond belief and quite beyond
the strength Of any but the strongest.
1t is not strange, therefore, that the close
