HATS OF The HOUR
Parisiennes Are Devoted to the
CIOChe Shapes.
Enormous Picture Types, Worn by
Pretty Women, Are Conspicuous
at the Races.

At the fashionable race meetings
and in all the smartest restaurants,
asserts a Paris fashion writer, one
recognizes that war of hats is in full
swing. Quite early in the spring sea
son Lewis-who has great influence in
the feminine wOrl2-announced the
speedy arrival of very large picture
hats, with wide, fiat brims and rather
low crowns.
And side by side with these models
he shOwed-at Monte Carlo and Biar-
ritz-cavaller hats Of remarkable out
line, the sort of hat that Cecile Sorel
has always worn.
Now it happens that the more &C.
lectic Parisiennes have become devoted
to cloche shapes-large and small. In
fact, so devoted are they to these
charming styles that nothing can in
duce them to look, seriously, at other
models. The favOrite hat of the hour
remains the cloche-large or small.
At the races one sees enormous pic
ture hats worn by very pretty women,
but these are almost always name
quins, who have been paid to show off
some particular style. 1t is a rare
thing to see a real Partisan elegante
wearing a remarkably wide-brimmed
hat. We shall watch this little milli-
merry war with interest.
At least two of the most influential
milliners III Paris are determined to
make big flat-brimmed picture hats
popular, but no one can say, decidedly,
that this effort will be really auccess-

HOW HATS MAY BE RENEWED
ironing and Bleaching Simple Matter
Which May Be Easily Accom-
pllshed at Home.

A hat which becomes limp with
dampness may be restored by press
ing It with warm iron over damp
cloth. A white straw or leghOrn hat,
writes a correspondent, may be
bleached by washing with soap aud
lukewarm water after which 1t should
be well brushed with Oxalic acid solu-
ton or a paste of lemon juice and sui
phur. If the oxalic acid forms bub-
bles when poured on clean white pine
board 1t is too strong for use and
should be diluted. II the straw is brit
lie and soap and water cannot be used
on it, It should be well brushed before
using the oxalic acid and rinsed with
clear water afterwards. The hat may
be dried by covering It with a cloth
and pressing with a warm iron or plac-
ing It In the sun.
Black straw mats may be cleaned
with a piece OF, velvet which has been
dipped In gasoline. If 1t is still not
black enough after this process Ia I'm

FASHION BRIEFS

Embroideries show an oriental In
fluence.
Wool trotteurs are smartly trimmed
with latticed ribbon.
The Florentine neckline is seen in
almost every dressy afternoon gown.
In frocks the skirts are nearly al
ways more elaborate than the bodices.
The newest fans are Of dyed
coque feathers mounted In tortoise
she'll.
A perky little vest of white linen
embroidered with black silk livens up
the dark tailleur.
No spring wardrobe is complete
without the popular canton crepe
frock. 1t is all the rage just now.
The smart shops are showing all
black underwear. Even milady's night
robe is thing of clinging black lines
and laces.
Several smart hats have a high
back trimming which Stimulates Span
ish combs. These often are made Of
lace or plated malines.
Evening gowns shill show predilec-
tion for gray-and if it is not gray,
then 1t verges on it by being a soft
violet mauve or lustrous blue.
As the season progresses one will
see the gay hats bedecked with cher
ries, which are now being worn I'M
covered, draped with black lace which
in many cases will reach to the ell
bow. The lace invariably is very soft.
In this season of utter simplicity
deep folds Of the material are often
the only trimming allowed-and, by
the way, they are very smart. A
charming organdie dress is thus fash

trimmed with three horizontal folds.

FIRST POLO MATCHES
PLAYED IN LONG AGO
English Team Brought to United
States in 1886.
Member Of Nottingham Club Writes
Interesting Letter Describing In
ltial Contests for Interna-
tional Title.

In 1886 John Watson brought an
lEnglish team to the United States to
play the first matches for the interna-
donal polo cup. What comment that
visit causedl Americans were eager
20 see the game and everyone knows
with what avidity it was taken up
when society said 1t was good to look
upon.
The following letter, written by a
member Of the Nottingham team, who
played in those games, will be read
with interest, even though the writer
has begged not to have his name made
public. The letter follows:
American polo in 1886 was not, as
far as team play went, up to the
standard of frst-class English polo
The American rode very handy ponies
Il believe mostly Argentines. They
were not so well bred or as fast ponies
as ours. The American team did not
play well together and thought too
much of their individual play. They
had not then mastered the backhander
and did not try to keep the ball up
and down the middle Of the ground.
The English teams had learned their
polo to start with mostly in India,
where there were full-sized grounds
600 and 200 yards), and no boards.
1t was, therefore, necessary to keep
the ball in play by playing up and
down the ground.
"The Nottingham team was cap
tanned by Mr.. Watson, one of the best
players of his day. When playing a
practice game before the matches he
over-balanced himself and fell off his
pony. His Craftsmanship on this ac-
count was much criticised by the
American press. He was, however, a
very strong and good horseman, which,
/ think, the Americans realized in the
matches. We were to have played
several matches in the United States,
but as the Nottingham team beat the
best team the United States could
then produce in two consecutive
matches, the other matches fell
through.
"The ground at Newport was very
good and well kept, but much too
small even for ponies Of the height
then played. The game in the United
States was commenced by placing the
ball In the middle Of the ground. The
no. rs started from behind the line
and galloped for the ball. This rule
was decidedly to our advantage.
