Gawd's sake, man, take my word for
1t, an don't put your money on the
Dane!'
Others thrust themselves between
them. At first Kazan had snarled at
all these faces about him. But now
he lay back against the boarded side
of the cage and eyed them sullenly
from between his forepaws.
The fight was to be pulled of In
Harker's place, a combination OF sa-
loon and cafe. The benches and
tables had been cleared out and in the
center of the one big room cage ten
feet square rested on platform three
and half feet from the floor. Seats
for the three hundred spectators were
drawn closely around this. Suspended
just above the open top Of the cage
were two big oil lamps with glass re-
Electors.
It was eight O'Clock when Harker
McTrigger and two other men bore
Kazan to the arena by means OF the
wooden bars that projected from the
bottom of his cage. The Big Dane was
already in the fighting cage. He stood
blinking his eyes IN the brilliant light
Of the rejecting lamps He pricked up
his ears when he saw Kazan. kazan
did not show his fangs. Neither re-
vealed the expected animosity. 1t was
the first they had seen Of each other,
and murmur Of disappointmer
swept the ranks of the three hundred
men. The Dane remained as motion
less as rock when Kazan was prod
: ded from his cage into the fighting
cage. He did not leap or snarl. He
regarded Kazan with dubious ques-
tioning roise to his splendid head and
then looked again to the expectant and
excited faces of the waiting men. For
few moments Kazan stood stiff leg
ged, facing the Dane. Then his shout
ders dropped, and he, too, cody faced
the crowd that had expected fight to
the death A laugh Of derision swept
through the closely seated rows. Cat
calls jeering taunts flung at McTrig-
ger and Harker. and angry voices de.
manding their money back mingled
with a tun1ult Of growing G'rcontent.
sandy's face was red with mortitica-

Pantaiette Costume.
Plouant Skating Costumes.

Among the costumes, particularly
youthful and chic, are the box coats,
worn with short hartng skirts and tas-
selled Tam-o'- Shanters. The Norfolk
model, too, is much in favor, and the
sweater in some popular vivid tone
combined with skirt of corduroy or
tweed. Is prime favorite. Each Of
these suits allows the ease of move
ment 80 necessary to this sport, and
the grace Of line so much sought after
in all costumes.
Fabrics favored for skating suits are
tweed, in it's various mixtures Of soft
browns, reds and grays; sweater cloth,
warmly and wildly colored lambs
wool, 80 light and warm: and number
less novelty woods and other fabrics
favored for sports use. Corduroy
should not be omitted; In wide and
narrow vale, 1t Is being used for both
coat and skirt, The colors are pleas
ing and OF course the wearing quail
ties of corduroy are too well known
and appreciated to require mentioning.
Corduroy lends itself particularly well
to the belted Norfolk models for golf
ing and other out-of-door sports, as
well as skating.
Goats Are Unlined.
The belted Norfolk, the sweater coat
and the box model, now worn for
sports are all Of them unlined unless it
be perhaps shoulder yoke of satin or
heavy silk as sort of body founda-
ton. This fact makes the fashioning
of them at home much simpler mat
ter. Sport clothes, being more or less
Of luxury. are of necessity expensive
when purchased ready made; mater
ials however may be purchased and
the garment made at home very reas-
onably. A particularly effective suit
seen recently, was developed in a soft
sage green English coating; it was re-
versible, the underside being checked
in soft blues, green's, reds and browns.
Collar, wide cuffs. lapels and belt
were made with the check outside; the
coat was fastened with large brown
