GAY CARRIE CARELESS
TAKES A PEEP AT SOCIETY WO
MEN IN HUNTING ARRAY.
Hew Women of Fashion Dreas When
They Go Out for a Day’s ADort With
F'fle or Gun—hiding to Hounds aa a
Fashionable Past.me-Woman Who
Do It—Life in a Hotsl.
(Copt/righ t 1990 i
New York, Nov. I.— lt isn't necessary to
have a box in Scotland t ow, when para
goes a huntin’, for he can gather up his
loins under a yellow leathern belt— and,
girding on his armor of corduroy, hie him
to Staten or Long Island.
Mamma.inst ad of tarrying at home with
“Bye Baby Bunting, ” goes also and takes
Miss Bunting with her if that young lady ts
grown np.
Nsw A ork’s most fashionable women are
found at these bunting meets. The exercise
iu tbe open air “o’er moss and fed" is ex
hilarating avd the early morning exercise
and exci ement are thought to Le good for
the complexion.
Among the most skillful riders 1 1 hounds
are no le s notable sociery people than Miss
Metcalf, Miss Bonuer, Mrs. Eliot Roosevelt,
Mrs. August Belmont, Jr., Mia Bradley
Martin (when she is in this couutry), Mra
Willie K. Vanderbilt, Mrs. Jack (Jowdei,
Mrs. Belmont Purdy. Miss Daisy Hurst and
Miss .Sally Hewitt. Tbe neelv welded
Mrs. Charles Havemeyrr (bee Moss) is an
enthusiastic rider to hounds.
The hunting suite ate charmingly be
ftr>ming. Little pe >k ops or Derby* are set
slightly ajsunt, anti pulled well down over
the cheris e.i bangs of the fair riders. The
riding skirt is so very contracted that it
must be buttoned down the i.de after it is
ela'pej around the waist. A full gore is
set over the right knee, and the right side
of the skirt is made short to display the
trousers beneath and to afford greater
facility in ease of accident
The wai'l is and üble-breasted. with stand
ing collar, and a thickly wadded jacket of
the same nia enal is provided to slip on
when the brush is over.
An actress i know actually has the hardi
hood to don short skirts and leather leg
gms and go forth, gun in hand, duck
•uootitig.
Tte Scottish garb is the most popular
one. Plaid st ckings, plaid belt and collar
and a bonny feather stuck in the cap.
The sport is rough and exciting, requir
ing such a s'rung consututi m and so much
practice that lew are strong enough or
clever enough to become even passable
sportswomen.
Avery large wbi'e cotton pigeon on a very
email green iree is ihe first object of tue
would-be -portawomau’s skill. Next tbe
pigeon is placed upon a taller tree; then is
ma le smaller until it is n> bigger tha i u
sparrow; finally it is swung to and fro.
when she can hit this undulating creature
ten times out of every ten tue sp rtswoman
is teady to go forth in quart of the unhappy
duck.
She dr esn't make the duck very unhappy
at firs , fo she gets so excited that she
couid i.ot hit a baru door. After a lit le
practice, however, she becomes “most ex
ceeding ca'am,” and outdistances her
brother upon ibis, his own ground, os she
does everwnere else.
Another hunting rig even more chic than
tbe o.her which is sold to tie much worn in
France by ladies who enjoy the woods has
a white vest, Brutnu el necktie, dark red
jacket aid trousers, fhs legging aro of
black velvet with gold buttons. Cork-soled
canvas shoos, gauntlets and soft hat com
plete this cost i me.
Mrs. Willie K. Vanderb it is said to bo
twice as fascinating as ever in her hunti >g
dress. A favorite ■me has a Highland kilt
reaching to tbe calves, calf-skin shoes, grey
corduroy legging and a tv eed vest and
jacket. The high c .liar stands erect, wi fl
out ornamentation. Various convenient
pockets are for ammunition, and other light
equ.pments. A silk hand-rker hisf is tied
on the bead whe crawling through bushes,
aud a brandy flask is takeu to be used in
case of accident
Avery interesting story Is told of one or
Sew York's piettiest society budlets.
r This pretty young girl, so the story goes,
fell much in love with a Handsome, but
ineligible young fellow, who belonged to a
swell set aud the Unity Club, but who, since
his fati.er deals not in soap, perfumery,
sugar or barrel-, has not as much of this
wo. ld’s goods as he might otuerwise pos
sess.
The guardian of the young womam
frowned s darkly upon the match that the
poor girl was not allowed to take cart in
social spoi ts wheu there was the slightest
risk of meeting the young man.
At the Westchester hunt meet last week
the girl, who is an elegant rider, longed to
be present aud ake pai tin the game. But
all in vain were pleadings, cajo.ery, player
or tear. The stern custodian absolutely
and strict ly forbade it. The young woman
stamped her pretty foot and burst into such
paroxysm of weeping that in de-pair the
advice of the family physician was sought.
As the ie-ult, the young woman was able
to affect a compromise; she would take her
own little two- eated road-cart, and with a
footman and duem.a, make one of the c m
pany of old folks who always accompany
the riders in carriages.
Just as the signal was given anti all were
ab ut to start, the afflicted youns woman
turned to . er auenna and begged to be
allowed to ride with “Dear Mrs, 8., who
will take good care of me, you know."
Nothing loth to be relieved of her uncer
tain charge, the duenna accepted, and out
skipped my young lady to join Mrs. B. in
her carriage. Away they sped and no one
missed Miss Lady until the few who were iu
at the death noticed that her you ig man
was now here in sight, and that the carriages
as they came rolling up did not contain the
love-lorn maiden.
All sorts of dreadful things were con
jectured. Mrs. B. had not seen her. She
must, therefore, have been run over mak
ing her way t Mrs. B.’s carriage. She had
fainted suddenly, and in the excitement no
one bad noticed her. She bad been kid
naped, had died of grief and thwarted am
bition—no fate was too terrible to present
itself to their excited fancies.
But what is that dusky speck in the far
distance? It comes nearer and nearer. It is
young Lochinvar! And who shall take the
horrid task of telling him of his fair one’s
uncertain fate. With bowed head he hears
it and then all turn and at once ride rapidly
homew rd, totally forgetful of the hunting
lunch that lies spread for tnem at a neigh
boring tavern.
Scarcely had they sped more than a mile
when the young woman was found quietly
and happily seated upon a wayside stone
awaiting their return.
“I missed Mrs. B.,”said she sweetly, “so
I walked part of the way, hoping to meet
you on your return.”
“Walked!” gasped everyone but young
Lochmvar, who w as straugely silent, “how
could you have walked all that distance in
such a short time? Why, we fairly flew to
make it."
“But,” smiled she who had a lover bold,
“vou sea you went m-much further than I
I otdv came up to meet you."
Glances were exchanged, but no words
were spolt-n as the party resumed its line of
u, , ly , the obßervin g o'ies noted that
bits of black lace net, exactly similar in
pattern to the truant young ladv T s j retty
gown, were Been sticking upon the irregu
larities of the saddle ridden by “tue” young
man. B
V*ho will say, after this, that riding horses
and sed lies won’t c irry double?
The favorite song with the hunting set
since then has been “Love Will Find the
Way."

DRANK WHIKYaND DIED.
A Five-Year-Old Boy’a Brain Para
lyzed by a Pint of the Beverage.
From the Philadelphia Press.
Pittsburg, Pa.. Oct. 27.—Brady Cun
ningham, a 5-year-old boy, died to-night at
his parents’ home in Allegheny from paraly
sis of the brain, caused by driukiug a pint
of whisk)’.
The little fellow got the bottle of liquor
from a kitchen cupboard this moruing, and
when discoN ered by his mother half an hour
later was lying in a stupor with the empty
bottle beside him.
A physician, who was summoned, by
using a stomach pump, drew a pint of
whisky from the boy. It was not iu time,
however, to counteract the deadly effect of
the alcohol, and the boy died this evening,
without regaining consciousness.
The physician decided that tbe liquor had
paralyzed the brain.
Violins for Girls.
From the London Daily Xetrs.
The violin has now fairly taken ite place
as an instrument for girls. The only ques
tion, indeed, seems to be whether it is de
signed to supersede our old, but uot invari
ably welcome friend, the pianoforte. We
are reminded by an article from the pen of
Mr. Joyce Barrett, in the Il’oiiian’s World,
that this is after all only a revival, as w
learn from figure# in sculptured stone in
our ancient cathedrals. St. Cecilia, more
over, is depicted by the old painters quite
as often with a bowed instrument as seated
at her traditional Organ. The list of dis
tinguished living iadv violinists is very con
siderable. As to the common charge of
“ungracefulness," Mr, Barrett “overrules
it at once.” Nothing more elegant than a
good style of “bowing.” Giving violin les
sons is now not riou ly one of the most
profitable branches of tbe music mistresses’
profession. As there is really more work
than tlie good teaohers can do, it is not sur
i prising 1 1 learn that there are many bad
teachers wno are supplying the deficiency
1 —after a fashion.

New Yorkers Try the Code. But
Btlcx to tbe Method Adopted by
Germans Students in Their Dally
Tests of Strength and Skill witb
Each Other.
From the Sew York Herald.
“I could kill you!”
“You dare not meet me elsewhere! ’
These sentences were exchanged by two
well known clubmen a few nights ago in a
billiard room in Broadway.
Each man was held by friends as each
a igrily hissed out the words quoted above,
for they had quarreled and had just ex
changed blows.
When next they met it was in orabat,
with steel in their hands, and blood was shed.
It was a foolish quarrel that had no real,
tangible, understai.dable basis, and yet the
two ineu proceeded to extremities, as if
some vital question was involved or some
nice point of honor at stake.
The duel that resulted was a secret shared
by only fire persons. Much was involved
in keeping tbe matter secr-t, for both were
men of high social position and they are
married and have families. Up to the
night in question they wore good friend. —
indeed, their wives had been and are on vis
iting terms and very intimate.
A WOMAN AND POLITICS THE CAUSE
The two gentlemen with some friends
were out late that night discussing politics,
and before they separated on tbe ay home
one of tbe party suggested a game of blll
ards, and they dropped into a Broad wuy
resort. While tbe game procieledpilit.es
ware still talked. The immediate on use of
the quarrel was a woman, of course. The
name of a prominent candidate w -s men
tioned by tbe clubman, C E , in con
nection with a woman, nnd the other,
G V——, resented it hotly, being a
partisan, and characterized tbe assertion as
a “falsehood.'’
Pa rhi ps it was tbe wine firing the head
of bis opponent that promote i tbe net; a
blow followed and they clinched. Wtnla
tney wore being separated C E
said: “1 would kll you," and his wuilom
friend dared him to meet him els iwh re.
Nothing inure was said. The two men
did uo“ care to make a public exhibition of
themselves, and each went his way with
anger in bis heart.
Both men are good boxers, go and shots
and good swordsmen—in fact, all rouud
a hletes. A challenge pa-sed between them.
A mu ual friend, who is one of tbe finest
swordsmen in the city and a member of the
Racquet Club, suggested, after fist trying
to arrange m .Hers amte ibly, that the duel
should be f lUyht after the German univer
sity fashion, with svoriis. C E
and G V l.ad i een in Heidel
berg and knew t.ef >shi in and consented.
SWORN TO SECRECY.
The very first thing was to swear all
hands to secrecy. Besides the principals
there were present only the sec mds and the
umpire, wh > is the swordsman I have re
ferred to. These five men met shortly after
daybreak across the Harlem river and pro
ceeded to a secluded snot not fur from a
boat oiub house on the sound.
The moruing was raw, but this did not
ne'er the combatants from stripping t>
their undershirts. The seconds had arranged
that first blood should end the matter. Tne
weapons used were foils, with leaden bot
tms fixed a short distance from the keen
points The two man saluted each other
courteously as tbe foils were placed in their
hands.
THE COMBAT.
At the word thev advanced and crossed
swo. ds. C E — was a trifle the
taller, and with a rattier longer reac i, but
G V was wiry and alert, At
first they merely plaved with each other
and were very cautious in attack. The
taller man’s swift lung.s were skillfully
parried, but he had constantly to shift his
ground, being closely pressed by his oppo
nent. They seemed pretty evenly matched
in strength as well an in scie.ice, f<r they
fought fully fifteen minutes without either
getting an advantage. But as they fought
they became more eager, and at las :, a thrust
in tierce drew blood from C— E —.
He was struck in the right shoulder. He
went on with the combat, however, but
umpire and seconds interfered, and it was
well they did, for the button on the foil of
C E had slipped, and there was
dauger of a fatal termination of the fight if
the terms of the duel had been disregarded.
The wound was bound up, and both men
resumed their clothing, just as if nothing
had happened. Before they went their
several ways they saluted each other. On
Monday uigbt C— E was all
right. They met at a theater and shook
hands, and thev are now as fast friends as
ever, but refrain from dUoussiug polities or
women.
A SANGUINARY DUEL.
Georgia Neighbors Fight and Both
iieeeive Fatal Wounds
From the Philadelphia Pi ers.
Atlanta, Oct. 20, A desperate duel to
tbe death was fought near Danielsville,
Madison county, yesterday afternoon, in
which William Sanders, a prominent
planter, was killed and William Martin, his
neighbor, was fatally wounded.
For some time there has been bad blood
between the men. Each has appeared in
court as a witness against the other, and
several times serious difficulties have taken
place between them.
The trouble culminated on Saturday.
Martin lives a quart-r of a mile from San
ders, and is a tenant on the plantation of
Sanders’ sons. Yesterday Sanders beard
shooting in the direction of Martin’s house,
and looking out saw his own hogs running
from Martin’s, He at once concluded that
Martin was shooting them, Martin having
been prosecuted upon a charge of that kind
' before. Bo Sanders took his gun end
started to Marti n’st When asked what
he meant by shooting at tbe hogs, Martin
siid he would shoot him (Sanders), too,
if he bothered him, and the shooting be
gan.
Martin emptied his double barreled gun
and five shooter at Banders. Four shots
took effect, any one of which would have
been fatal. Sanders shot at Martin five
times, three from a pistol and two from a
gun. Throe of these took effect. Martin
will die.
Banders’ son was within fifteen feet of
him when he fell. The son had called to
the men to stop. Banders did stop, but
Martin kept on until his weapons were
emptied.
Hindoo Marriages.
From Ihe London Spectator.
What we are seeking is only an improve
ment iu the marriage system of Hindoos;
and to break up the Hindoo ecclesiastical
system for that purpose, while we legalize
and protect Mussulman polygamy, seems to
us doubtful justice. If a widow wno re
marries, or father who keeps his daughter
unbetrothed, needs legal protection from
external violence, let them have it in the
fullest measure—the case, we believe, oc
curs, the widow forfeiting property she
ought, to keep—but to prohibit ecclesiastical
pressure, or ecclesiastical protection of the
temples against excommunicants, is outside
the legitimate fuuotton of any government.
It ould be as hard to abolish Hindooism
as to prohibit exc 'mtnunioaiion, and not a
great deal more just. An improvement of
t iai kind—if it be an Improvement, and for
our part we believe caste to be the anti
septic of Hindoo society—must come from
within when the time is ripe, not be forced
upon a people from outside. We sb übl
not feel very benevolent, or very civilize i,
either, if millions of Hindoos, declaring
that Uiay could no longer protect their
Hindoo purity, elected to become Mohara
■ medans—and that has happened iu ludia,
I though on a smaller scale, before now.

We cannot tell a lie. We
did it with our little hatcliet.
We struck right at the root

sure and see our goods be
