row told him he wished to learn who,

NEW YORK, June 2S.-Louisa Cape
tillo, a young writer belonging to one
of the most prominent families in Porto
Rico, and called by many of the pro-
gressive women of the island the Porto
Rican Jeanne dare" has arrived in this
CITY with the aVoWed declaration that
she was going to awaken New York to
o real sense of freedom in politics, dress,
end matrimony.
Today she appeared on Fifth avenue
in a trouserette costume of the sensa-
tional sort guaranteed to stop traffic on
any thoroughfare, and which she is
trying to have the local suffragettes
adopt al the symbol of emanCipa ton.
1t consists of a dainty lace and linen
coat, full length, thrown Carelessly over

inch or two above the ankle to the

When Miss Capetillo left her new resi-
dence, at "A Lexington avenue, the coat
was allowed to fly with the winds. At
Fifty-seCOnd street the crush of car
riages, taNis, and limousines became Sc
bad that a policeman had to ask her Ia
pin down the front of her coat, as far
as her knees, at least, or else he would
have to call another sort of conveyance
and put the matter of progressive femi-
nine styles up to higher authorities. Sc
Miss CSapetllo pinned it down.

SO and rs cents and 81. The smaller ones

tween Thirteenth and Fourteenth. They
wear WELL and owing to the possibility
OF loss, which Is so great with these ear

better to buy than the solid gold ones.

pretty sterling silver-spangled bracelets,
which are marked 30 cents. With the
exception of a narrow beading, they
are perfectly plain and come in all sizes.

against the Thomas cat. and he nearly
fell off the fence.

asked humping his back and stepping
nearer to Smudge.

Smutge very meekly, for he never had

black kitten, with white on
the ends of each paw, hence her name,
and Smudge was all white excepting d
black mark across one eye and extend
ing on to his cheek, hence his name,
Smudge.
Mother Tabby kept them clean and
slick looking that Is. she did the best
she could. Tlppy-toes was always clean
with shiny coat and she never
stepped into the mud or any place that
would soil her white shoes, of which
she was very proud. But Smudge was
not SO careful Of his white coat, and
he would roll anywhere that he hap
pened to be and walk under bushes and
crawl under fences, rubbing his white
fur the wrong way until he looked
very little like the slick kitten his
mother had dressed in the morning.
