WHERE WOMEN HAVE
NO CHOICE OF HATS

In Russia the maiden who is fancy
free may dress her locks as she wishes.
But not so the wife-she must hide her
hair. So, as a recompense for this saCri-
fee, she dons a hat which may we'll be
called weird. In shape II is not unlike a
bishops mitre, and il is adorned as the
fancy or the purse of the wearer die
tates. Gold. silver. and even precious
stones have been used in decorating this
kokoschnik. as II is called.
In certain parts OF Spain a hat similar
to the Russian style is worn. Particu-
larly Is this popular with the dancers
among the Toledo peasantry. although it
must be very hot and uncomfortable for
this purpose.
The Dutch maiden of Amsterdam pins
her faith-and her head-to a hat which
resembles in shape an inverted flower
pot. 1t may not be the style most suited
to her round, placid face. but she would
not change It for the very latest thing"
in smart millinery.
On the island of Marken. In the Zuy-
der Zee. the fashionable hat is again of
the mitre shape, but with the addition
of wide, Tapping wings. Farther north.
in Norway. a maiden on her bridal day
dons a traditional erection which can
best be likened to an eccentric castle or
a gigantic chess-board. In the province
Of Alsace-Loraine the women wear a
huge, winged head-dress.

about to tear down the statue Of Gen.

gave forth a bitter formal statement de-
nouncing the alleged 'sacrilege."
rs there nothing sacred with our
American people?'' the old soldier said.
do we cherish naught but our selfish
desires, our pleasures, and greed and
graft? Are the memories of our past
heroes forgotten in the onrush Of COM
mercialism? Even in this commercial
age there are a few monuments in our
greatest cities. Washington. Philadelphia.

1T is at the Fifth avenue entrance to
Central Park, classic. spirited in design
and pre-eminently American. 1t was
by patriotic friends in the most appro-
PIRATE place in New York where millions
OF our own people and foreigners who
appreciate vaIor and patriotism can sd-
mir and adore.
THE proposition 20 remove this splendid
st=tue OF the master mind of war. tee
genius, the hero to make place for a
dog kennel OF an entrance to some under
ground railway is abhorrent and saCTi-

appeal 10 the city to prevent the removal.

The propositions have been laid before

in such definite form as would have glad

Landed in United States.

Chinese government feels keen disap-
pointment at the action in permitting
Hwang Hsing. a fugitive revolutionary
leader, to land at San Francisco last

he either be extradited to China or re-
fused permission to land.
Hwang Hsing has been in hiding in

MEXICO CITY OPTIMISTIC.

Mexico City, July 19.-There is a gen.
eral feeling here that armed strife be-
tween the constitutionalists and federal
lists is about to cease throughout Mexico.
This is largely due to statements in the
papers today that President Wilson is de-
termined to recognize President Carba-
jail.
II is rUmOred that Huerta is on board
the British cruiser Bristol at Puerto
Mexico. Another rumor is to the effect
that Huerta will shortly take the field
in person in the Southern States against
the government. The Zapatistas operat-
ing in that section have not shown any
united strength of late.
