1t was Miss Ruth Poyntz, ex-

started the thing. In a lecture
here, she said that men of fashion
throughout the country are grad

Several Pittsburgh men indig-
nantly denied the imputation.
They didn't wear corsets, they
said. Furthermore they would

being seriously hurt last Friday after
noon. She, in company with Mrs.

without their knowledge. The tongue
of the vehicle came in contact with the
wheel of the buggy turning it over and
throwing both the ladies to the ground.
Mrs. Mark, in her effort to hold her
horse, was dragged a short distance,
but the harness giving way saved her
in a measure, no doubt. As it was she
was badly bruised ABOUT the face, but
is improving nicely and will be well
again in few days. No blame would
be attached to the driver. as he was
not aware of their intention to stop, as
was done, for Mrs. Vannier to get out.
