ST. LOUIS.
Spots That Might Have Stirred the
Fancy Of Charles Dickens.

From the st. Louis Republic.
Apparently It Is the program for the
son Of Charles Dickens to hit only the
high places in st. Louis. It viii be lit
erary high life and silver. cut glass and
mahogany under the high lights. This
will be enjoyable, Of course.
But we fancy that the literary low life
Of the town also would appeal to our
visitors distinguished parent II he were
alive and well and able to put in me
time. Charles Dickens missed q good
deal Of atmosphere and color when he
was here in ~, and there is even more
now that we wish he might enjoy it only
vicariously. as 1t were.
Save the mark! Nobody could take the
liberty to suggest that our esteemed
guest undertake to explore them. but It
is certain that a great novelist himself
would be repaid by nosing into some OF
the rat holes, cobwebby garrets. rough
alleys and eerie, elin rocks and roosts
Of old st. Louis. What places to prowl in
are ''Helrs Half Acre with the Bottoms
Gang, the dens of Market street and the
hole where ancient Tom Kelly had his
bloody prize ring; Hop alley, the hives on
the levee under the bridge, the novels
that stink of commercial hides or reek
the joints and kens and souphouses of a
great city of the real American soil!
What Jerry Crunchers and Artful Dodg-
ers and Cables and crtpples, beggars,
orphans, sots and slovens-and what dia-
logue!
Old Clabber alley and the ''Patch,"
North 9Th street, Biddle and High. hold
different shades of the material that
Charles Dickens delighted in. So does
many a downtown cross street that runs
into the railroad yards, and there are
grimy spots on Manchester that might
have come out Of Dickens descriptions.
Perhaps our pOorhouse and insane
asylum and the old Four Courts exhibit
old Olive street he would find Sairey
Camps as well as fortune tel1ers to re-
joice his spirit. Let us not forget the
musty bookstalls, curiosity shops, pawn
shops archaic boarding houses, and espe-
cially the moldy old furniture marts that
are fairly sitting and sticky with Dick
ensian atmosphere. not forgetting our glue
factories, either.
This Is a charmingly human old town.

SWIMMING BEGINS I
AT BATHING BEACH
ON THIRD OF JUNE
Hours Limited This Year to
Keep Little Ones At
80 School.
" time is nearly hero

"Swimmin' time is nearly here.
Saturday, June 8, will mark an epoch
in the life of the small boy of Wash
tngton. The bathing beach will be
opened on that date.
For a time the hours will be limited,
DR.. w. B. Hudson, superintendent, hav-
ing learned from past experience that
the temptation to play hockey when
the beach is in operation is not to be
resisted. Until June q, therefore, the
date Of the closing of the schools, the
pools will be opened from to p. m.
only, and from 10 to 6 Saturdays and
Sundays. Being a firm believer in edu,
cation DR.. Hudson holds that the closing
of the beach during school hours is
necessary.
How Days Are Divided.
On Tuesdays, Thursdays. and Satur-
days, the beach will be opened to the
boys, and on ondays, Wednesdays. and
Fridays to girls. The hours for the
regular season, which begins June p,
will be from 10 to II a. m. and from 2 TO
and $50 to 6 p. m. Ladies days Will
be on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fri
days from to 10 a. m. and from to
p. m.
last year, DR.. Hudson is anticipating a
busy season. The number of persons
using the pools last year was 5S,669. OF
this number 2,546 were women and
girls. More than 1000 men and boys and
225 women and girls were taught to
swim.
Funds Are Limited.
Except for maintenance, no appropria-
ton was made by Congress for the
bathing beach at the last session. 1t is
the opinion of the Commissioners that
four pools in that locality will be suf-
ficient for several years, but in the
meantime Dr. Hudson has recommended
that pools be established in other sec
tions of the city and suburbs, project
Of which the board approves. The Com
missioners are in favor also, and will
probably provide in their next esti'
mates for the erection of small bathing
houses along the river front for the use
of expert bathers under official surveil-
lance.

COMING STYLE IN TRIMMING |
Some Cardinal Points That Are Sure
to Be in Vogue for the Hats
of Fall.

II you propose to trim your fall hat
yourself, you cannot go far wrong If
you place a pert pair of wings or a
sharp pointed bow directly at the
back, and the back trimming must
show a trifle above the high crown,
from front view. Many of the hats
may be reversed and worn any way
that proves becoming. For example,
the smart little hat of velvet with a
rolled brim faced with a lighter col
ored material and having a pair of
Mercury wings directly in front, might
be whipped around the other way II
one desired, so that the wings would
come at the back and the hat would
be equally modish and correct. This
hat has the very tall pointed tor
pedo" crown and is perfectly round
at the base. The crown is covered
with brown velvet and the wings are
brown with flecks of coral pink color.
This model promises to be favorite
with younger women. The hat Is
worn, as the picture shows, slightly
tipped back on the head.
