Formed Without Confusion.

Mrs. Richard Coke Burleson, grand
marshal Of the procession, was busy at
an early hour preparing for the start.
She was assisted by five aides, all eX-
cellent horsew0men, who rode astride
and dashed here and there giving hur-
ried commands and bringing order out
of chaos. Miss IneZ Mulholand, the
herald, whose trumpet blast was TO
signal the start, was dressed in royal
purple and sat astride a nettlesome
charger.
Virtually no deviation was made
from the order of march as already
made public. The allegorial floats
found their way into lire under the di-
rection of mounted aides; delegations
were assigned and the various sections
placed in their individual positions.

at the foot of Capitol hill was a num-

CHINESE TROOPS ARE HOLDING OUT
 AGAINST REBELS

Washington. July 25.-Reports to the State Department from the Amer ican legation at Peking declare that in the fight near Shanghai, the navy, being regularly supplied with funds, remains loyal to YIan Eh1 Kai while the Chinese merchants at Canton also are opposing the rebellion from busi- ness considerations.
 On the whole the government troops are successfully withstanding attack of the rebels at the Shang Hai arsenal while the Southern troops on the Punkow line are reported to be retreating. At Hankow a majority of the people are thought to be favorable to the rebels, but the vice-prestdent who Is located there, is confident of his ability to prevent an uprising.
 The Chinese troops are reported to have sustained defeat in a fight with the mongoIs, ninety miles north of Ka1gan. where a separatist movement is under way.

A newspaper story reports a smaller demand for playing cards When the boys stole out of sight to play high loss of popularity. Possibly now. when nearly every one plays. there is not quite the attraction of naughtiness.
 spartans who declined to learn bridge might have been. very good. But they have been very lonesome. The craze has followed the neglect of family life. When the men sheep ishly slip out to meet choice spirits at club or lodge, any one might know the women would turn to bridge or some thing.
 But bridge has only swayed the cir cles of society alleged to be the more select In simpler neighborhoods, pitch, euchre, and other primitive competitions have still held sway.
 Are there many families who gath CT as formerly for a household or neighborhood game? It sometim es seems as if the bridge craze had had the result to train a few experts, and discourage playing by others.
 Mastery of the game becomes 50 complete that one no longer plays simple and bung1ing games as for merly with Dad and the Boys, or the Young Lady Across the Way" Such bonehead work can no longer be tol- erated. Interest in the game is aroused only on meeting at select club competitors whom it Is some satisfa ction to crush

REGULATING COSTUMES

Now comes the police superinten- dent of Indianapolis, with a regula- ton that women wearing the new split skirt must also wear undergar- ments. Also a Milwaukee judge has fined a woman for wearing skirt that did not come within 12 inches from the ground. The latter official would find considerable work at any bathing resort.
 While these efforts to enforce mod esty are of course well meant, there 1 is an authority that is far more ef1- cient than any official created by the works of man. And that authority is Madame Grundy, the spirit of gos- sip, who soon enough places her fa- tai veto upon departure from com mon sense and womanliness. It can be predicted that the near future will see radical changes in wo- mems dress. For centuries conven- tionality has compelled them to swath themselves in various layers of inner and outer clothing. These not mere 1y concealed the form and motions of the body, but made healthful exer- else difficult. The principal reason why women have missed the stinula- ton of athletics has been that custom did not permit them to dress for such exercise.
 Any costume that hampers and re- stricts the physical development of half of the human race is all wrong. Time will see changes that will permit =1Enen to engage in athletics wtkA men on nearly even terms, as far as clothes go.
 Of course much of the alleged i'm modesty complained of in prevailing styles. is not due to a reasoned con- viction that the old fashions hamper

This building will be the second of the University Hoepi- tai group of buildings to be erected under the new plans for rebuilding the entire, Hospital system, which now occupies almost two city blocks in West Philadelphia The other modern building or wing which conforms to the new plans is the Clinical Building, finished a few years ago. The plans provide for ethe walls of all the build ings and wings being brought out to the Spruce street building line. The building will have de hoore, and pipe attic and roof garden. Later is is pro- posed to add four, and possibly five, stories to this building, which as near ly as possible will be in the Jacobean style. and will be constructed of brick and limestone, to conform to the gen eraI type,of the later buildings erected on the University campus. The cost of this wing will be about $400, ,000.
 The proposed mem orial to Mike Murphy, as suggested by the Evening Telegraph of Philadelphia, is attract ing much interest The movement is becoming widespread, and it is be- Ieved that the funds for a suitable memorial will soon be provided.

CORONER PHELAN's FINDING.
CNew Britain Herald. )


 The report of Coroner Phelan on the railroad wreck at Stamford is much more temperate than the report made by the interstate commerce com ission and yet 1t discusses the various features of the wreck with commend able thoroughness, finds no one crim- inalIy responsible and says that the death of the woman, upon whose case the report is based was accidental. The coroner's inquiry was of course the most exhaustive and he obtained more detailed information than did any other body or commission. Engineer Doherty who was in charge of the engine which caused the damage, is not regarded as incompetent, on the contrary it is felt that his only error was his misjudging the distance from the Stamford station when he should have applied the air brakes. There is some doubt as to his physical abil- ity to be an engineer because he show ed nervousness, but the coroner thinks that this condition was made more acute because of his narrowly escaping striking a child previously on the track.
 The coroner is of the opinion that the public is entitled to every precau- ton against accident that the road can give, but that it is not compelled by law to use devices unless they have been approved as having superior val ue over those now in use. There must be some reason exercised in such matters and he believes that the com pany did it's duty as required by law in this case and that neither itself nor it's servants are criminally respon- sible for the wreck.
 Upon reading the report one is struck with it's completeness as re- gards the various features discussed and also the fact that there is no dis position shown to be severe on the railroad which seems to have been condemned in all previous reports. Presumably this will end the contro versy and the corporation will be left alone to make such improvements as safety may require consistent with their value for the purposes used.
