nEN Violet Lin
toWVn g" ar d announced
6 * ie was * n
* or literature
there were those
among us who
kvV? 'VV scoffed. Violet
\'Vy was so alarming
t'/// ly pretty, one
(9 would never sus
pect her of pos
sessing brains. She was one of those
girls with alluring faces —the sort of
beaute-du-diable of which Ouida is al
ways writing, eyes of most unholy
blue and lips which could smile a man's
6onl away. A fascinating minx with
the most graceful and winning man
ners; a being of moods, tender, rcpel
lant, kindly and icy by turns, she had
created havoc and strewn devastation
wherever her daiuty feet had trod.
Suddenly she wearied of the endless
round of gayety and fashion to which
from her teens she had been accus
tomed and amazed her coterie by de
claring her intention of writing real
istic novels. Of course everyone said
it was merely a fad and would soon
blow over. But it didn't, that was the
astounding part of it.
Ifer first novel attracted more than
passing notice. She was commended
for her original and audacious style,
her clever plot and a certain dainty
feminine touch. She was written
about, interviewed, her beauty and
talent were praised by tho paragi<ph
crs and all the details of her luxurious
life were brandished about the coun
try. From being merely a typical so
ciety girl, a young vroman of elegance
and fashion, slie suddenly became a
somebody to bo pointed out and stared
at and raved about.
This spasmodic adulation pleased
Violet. Slie had always feasted upon
flattery but now she reveled in it. !jhe
threw herself into a life of feverish
emotion, became cynical, disdainful,
and thought of nothing but her miser
able ambition.
Local coloring came to bo an abso
lute mania with her. She was al
ways prating of "atmosphere" and
"realism." One can stand a lot of in
fernal nonsense from a pretty woman,
but really poor Violet often grew ac
tually tiresome with her endless rhap
sodies about "the divinity of realism."
It was just after publishing her sec
ond novel, a combination of ingenuity
and wickedness, a smartish, brackish
story you wouldn't have liked your
sister to write, that the girl decided to
go to the far west in search of "local
color" for the next attempt
"Yes," she drawled, with the fine
lady air of disdain sho had assumed
since her success, "yes, I am goiug in
search of local color and a hero. 1
may take a cowboy for tho latter—
who knows? They tell me those fel
lows are delightfully original and as
breezy as the winds from the Rockies."
Sho made up her mind she had not
been misinformed when, a month
later, sho met Jack Weatlierby.
Wcatberby was a child of the plains,
lie had never been east of the Missis
sippi and had an infinite contempt for
the land of the rising sun. lie had
hunted for a living; he had been a
cowboy and raised as much of a rum
pus iu mining camps as the next fel
low. Now he owned his own ranch
TIIE IIERO OF THE NEXT NOVEL.
and herds; had settled down some
what and had begun to think he would
like a wife and home.
lie was a handsome fellow, as fiery
as the mustang ho rode and as tender
hearted as a woman—some women.
llis ranch lay in the shadow of the
Sangre dc Christo range, next to that
of the Athertons, where tho New York
girl was stopping. Its acres stretched
to the shadowy foot hills and over
them roamed the sleek, wpll-fed crea
tures of which he was so proud.
It was two days after her arrival
that he saw her first. Ho had ridden
over to see Tom Athcrton, the big
muscular Englishman, who was his
particular crony, and had come down
tho trail with his customary "Hark"
and "Whoop." As though ridiug the
sightless couriers of the air, he dashed
up to the little flower garden,
aud chains jingling, sombrero flapping,
and letting out a yell which could have
been heard in Denver. And there by
the side of pretty Mrs. Athcrton, sat a
stranger, a vision, an angel. The as
tonished ranchman blushed and stam
mered like a school boy as lie bowed
awkwardly and apologized for his
Apache-like descent. Who was this
divinity in palest pink, this radiant
creature with hair like gold and eyes
of heaven's own blue? "My friend,
Miss Lingard, from New York," Mrs.
Athcrton had said. Pshaw! She was
a celestial being straight lrom Para
dise.
I have always pitied Weatlierby.
Never for one moment could I blame
him. He was a primitive man with
savage instincts lurking in his breast.
Ilrave, loyal, straightforward himself,
how couid he dream of the treacherous
jruel blows one little soft white hand
was capable of dealing?
Violet found this sturdy, brawny
ranchero a delightful study, and de
cided he should be the hero of her next
novel. His quaint wit and poetic fan
cies born of the mesas and the moun
tains, his forcible and often ungram
matical speech were faithfully noted;
his emotions were plaj'ed upon, his
heart was probed. And he never
dreamed he was being experimented
on. He h T ed this exquisite creature,
this dainty, soft, purring beauty, as ho
loved his life. He coveted lier and
longed to shut her close to his big,
faithful, honest heart.
At last came the night when Violet
carried her passion for "atmosphere"
and "local coloring" to its climax.
They had gone for their customary even
ing stroll, and had climbed up a lofty
butte to a broad ledge of rocks. At
their feet yawned the canyon, tre
mendous, awful, black, save where the
moonlight touched the opposite wall
with ghostly llncrers. Back of them
loomed the range like the battlements
of a phantom city. Through tho pines
in the canyon tho wind caino sighing
in mournful cadence. While far, far
below sounded the faint rushing of
water—the river tumbling and foam
ing along over its rocky bed.
"What a weird place," cried Violet
with a pretty little shudder, "and
what a ghost-like night. Why did we
never come up here before, Jack?
What a scene!"
Weatlierby was lying at her feet
where he had thrown himself to rest
after their cliinb. i-Ic turned his face,
white in the moonlight, toward her,
and fixing his dusky, unfathomable
eyes upon her, said: "I kept this place
for this hour. I meant to bring you
lIK STOOD AS IF TURNED TO STONE.
here when I got my courage to the
point where I could say all that is in
my heart Many a time down there,"
pointing to the ranch lying below, "I
have looked up here and thought of the
time I would bring you to tell you how
I love you."
For one instant Violet felt a queer
little thrill. The simple dignity of his
declaration almost moved tho worldly,
cold-blooded girl. Then she thought
of her local coloring. "What a situa
tion for iny novel," she said to her
self; then aloud, gently: "So j r ou real
ly love me, Jack?"
"Love you?" he echoed, passionately,
as ho rose and sat down beside lier.
"Violet, look," taking her hand, "my
heart lies here in this dear little hand."
Then throwing all reserve to the
winds, he seized her and kissed her,
inadlj', tempestuously.
She struggled to free herself and at
length succeeded. "How dare you?"
she demanded; "how dare—"
"How dare I?" he cried. "Why,
dearest, I love you—l love you, do you
hear? And you, you love me a little,
do you not?" Ho was approaching her
again, when she said, contemptuously:
"No; not a bit. I have simply been
studying you."
110 stood as if turned to stone.
"Studying me," ho said, in a queer
voice, "studying—why—why?" he sav
agely demanded, as ho caught her
wrist and held it in an iron grip.
"You were so different," she fal
tered, a bit frightened at his sudden
ferocity. "I wanted a new type for
my book, you know. I suppose Tom
told you I write books—"
An absolutely murderous look swept
over Weatherby's face. "No," ho
said, "no ono told mo that. So you
write books? And you wanted to put
mo in it—was that it? Answer me,
answer me."
"Yes," she murmured, faintly.
"And that was all? You never loved
me—never meant to marry me?"
"Why, no, how could I? lamto be
married in the fall to a man in New
York—•"
A snarl like that of an infuriated
beast interrupted her. Livid with rage,
he sprang toward her. Once again ho
crushed her, shrinking and trembling,
to his breast, then dragged her to the
very edge of the canyon, guping like
the bottomless pit to receive them.
And as her agonized screams pierced
the soft summer night, Weatlierby,
still holding her against his outraged
heart, stepped off.
They found them next day in the
bottom of the canyon. Violet's lovely
face was past recognition, but on
Weatlierby's lingered a smile of such
awful triumph as would have pleased
the arch-fiend himself. —Truth.
ELLEN OSBORN'S LETTER.
A Great Lesson in Dress Learned
This Summer.
New Gowns Seen on the Sea, on the Ten
uis Court and on the Driveway-
Harmony in the Sum
mer's Gowns.
COPYRIGHT, 1805.
The greatest of dress lessons is har
mony. And we have learned it this
summer. In all the goodly array of
clothes in Newport, pale tints in soft
fabrics frilled with dainty laces blend
each into each, with the wonderful
green of the lawns and the blue of the
skj' and the changing sparkle of the sea
to give relief to them and background.
Here is a white muslin with just a tint
of the pink of the late wild roses be
neath its folds. There a mauve cam
bric oil afloat with Valenciennes.
Against the red awnings of the veran
da stands out a green and white sheer
linen, crowned by a huge lace hat tied
with white ribbons under a saucy chin.
Under a spreading tree that looks as if
it might go back to the days of the
Norsemen and Newport's famous old
stone mill is a slim little maid in a frock
of white grass lawn, striped with pale
blue. Dark blue ribbons are tied at
her throat and waist, ard a dark blue
sailor hat is set back on her pale gold
hair which coils in a curly nest just at
the nape of her neck, where it is pret
tiest and for the ordinary, straight
haired girl least possible. A yellow
muslin is half seen through the meshes
of a hammock, while out in the broad
sunlight, the one splash of vivid color
in the cool, breezy summer landscape
is a dress of scarlet linen under a wide
leghorn hat rmched with red chiffon.
A fete on John Jacob Astor's yacht,
the Nourmahal, brought out the pret
tiest marine dresses of the summer
and gave us a foretaste of what we
may expect in September. The pictur
esque group that leaned over the rail or
IN FULL FEATHER.
with bared heads walked back and I
forth in the faint, salt, sun-warmed
breeze, seemed to be all in grass lawn,
alpaca or white serge. The serge frocks
were best; that of Mrs. Duncan Elliot,
for example, who wore hers with a
piquant little velvet hem of huckle- !
berry blue and a blue tie to her white j
linen shirt with its stiff cuffs and col- I
lar. A blue belt and a smart blue coat
with white revers finished a most talc- j
ing costume.
Miss Pauline Whitney, who of all
the girls at the summer resorts attracts t
most attention, showed a proper regard I
for the eyes that were bent upon her
by rewarding them with a glimpse of
a blue and white striped flannel skirt,
worn with a blue lawn shirt and a
white necktie. Shaped revers down
the sides of the skirt were buttoned
with big white club buttons. A blue
elastic belt was stitched with gold cord.
A white box coat was now in evidence
tnd now thrown on a deck chair. The
blouse had enormous bishop sleeves,
whose top almost touched the Panama
hat that was simply trimmed with a
blue ribbon band and big blue bow.
This was harbor yachting. Mrs. C.
Oliver Iselin can tell all women what
to wear when it comes to a cruise. On
bard the Defender she paces the deck
U dark-blue serge, of rough make,
with plain skirt, close-fitting bodice
and square sailor collar of white cloth
whose narrow pointed revers come to
the belt and fasten there. The belt is
of white elastic and the hat now a blue
sailor and now a yachting cap with
white buckle and band.
At a tennis party on the lawn at the
new breakers the summer girl had a
chance to show what she is reserving
for the end of her campaign. Miss
Gertrude Vanderbilt, who has a little ;
time for outdoor dresses as well as for
coming out balls, wore a very graceful
frock of striped pink and white wool,
6oft and sheer, with the waist of deli- j
cate cream white veiling. The blouse
had two wide-reaching collars like
wings, one of white and the one above
it of pink silk like the pink of the dra- ,
peries. Pink cord nnd tassels made
dainty lacings and the soft pink belt
was tied in the back with a big bow.
The puffy sleeves came only to the
elbows and a tiny cap was worn, show
ing the soft curly brown hair.
Another noticeable dress was of
huckleberry blue mull linen—a very
delicate midsummer material that
young girls who are wise affect just
now. It had a plain, flaring skirt with
n deep hem, and a blue and white ac
cordion plaited blouse, finished with a
white fichu collar, knotted with a soft
bow over the bosom and edged with a
wide frill all around. A white silk belt
clasped the waist, and the very girlish
hat was of white straw decked with
daisies and cornflowers.
New four-in-hands appear every day
on Hcllcvue avenue, and such proces
sions of coaches, low-hung victorias
nnd smart traps could be seen nowhere
else in the world. There is one turn
out that for two days past has espe
cially interested me. In spite of very
correct liveries and exceeding proper,
stiff backs, the coachman and footman
have a queer Japanese look about the
eyes. It's my fancy that they're made
up for exhibition, to suit the whims of
a very beautiful and very eccentric
girl. The young woman who rides be
hind them has oriental eyes herself,
slightly so by nature and a touch more
by art, and the whole effect is just ec
centric enough to attract attention, not
enough so to be outre. The girl wears
white striped silk with a broad black
hat. Nobody knows her, but every
body sees her nnd everybody appreci
ates the bold stroke, and yet not too
bold, by which she has made herself in
forty-eight hours a center of observa
tion.
Mrs. Alva Vnnderbilt has departed
from the rule sho seems to have laid
down for herself this summer of con
spicuously simple dress and appeared
in her cart on the ocean drive a day or
two ago in a dazzling gown. It was of
buttercut yellow mull, shirred over a
silk skirt of the same color. The bodieo
was a shirred blouse with huge puffed
sleeves, black velvet belt and black
bows upon the shoulders. The hat was
of fine yellow straw, bent and fluted
i and tied down with black ribbons.
1 Sprays of golden rod trimmed it and
I suede gloves completed the outfit.
| At the coaching parade the most
effective dress was of black gauze
draped over white taffeta silk and
, trimmed with pearls. A full Marie An-
I toinette fichu of white chiffon was
gathered across the blouse to knot upon
the bosom.
' On the fair lawns of Mrs. William F.
i llurden's beautiful new house on the
Cliffs garden gowns flourish every day
and .all day. Miss Evelyn Burden wore
the other day a white spotted muslin
over pale green silk. Fine yellow lace
made ruches for the skirt and a quaint
ly gathered fichu. Her broad leghorn
hat was trimmed with grasses and yel
low chiffon.
A pretty young matron with a fresh
complexion wore rose red gauze over
silk of the same shade. White drill
with a white muslin blouse was simpler
but equally summery. The accessories
were pink sash and white hat trimmed
with pink morning glories.
ELLEN OBBOIIN.
A Butterfly Worth a Fortune.
It has only been three or four years
since the expressions "as pretty as the
Ilankins butterfly" and "worth as
much as the Ilankins butterfly,"
were among the colloquials at
j Saratoga and other eastern wa-
I tering places. The expressions arose
in this way: One of the favorites
I at the places mentioned was a Mrs.
I Ilankins, of Chicago, who wore as a
| jewel a butterfly inches long by
j a.hi' inches wide, made of pure gold and
set with a row of 70 brilliant diamonds.
Besides this edging of pure gems, there
were 124 others of the same kind scat
tered over the body of the jewel. The
gem body of this golden insect was a
large Hungarian opal, and the tail was
made of emeralds and rubies. Mrs.
| Uanklns valued the ornament at 115,000.
[WERE WE IT FAULT?
Spanish Indignation Over
the Allianca Incident.
j Clniiiipri Now That the Vessel Tie
ally Carried Arms for the Rebels
and That Wo Displayed n Cross
Abuse of Strength in Demanding
an Apology from Spain.
Madrid, Sept. o.—Count Hobkirk, the
Frenchman who was on board the
American steamer Allianca at the time
she was fired upon by a Spanish warship
off Cape Mayai, Cuba, is now in this city.
In an interview last evening he said that
t he Allianca was so close to the shore that
he could see the inhabitants clearly.
When Captain Crossman, the master of
the Allianca, saw the Conde do Vcnadito,
the warship which fired on the American
vessel, he was enraged because he knew
he would not he able to land the arms
he had aboard the steamer. Ho ex
claimed: "I will kick up a nice row
when 1 reach the United Stntes."
Senor Muruaga, formerly Spanish
minister to the United States, has writ
ten to the paper* stating that he resigned
because he had proof that the Conde de
Venadito was right in firing on the Alli
anca. He would not consent that
Spain should give humiliating satisfac
tion to t he United States for an incident
in which the United States was at fault.
Moreover, he adds, it is known in the
United States that Captain Crossman
smuggled arms to the rebels in Brazil
(luring the civil war in that country,
and that he now carries on a brisk trade
smuggling arms to the insurgents in
Cuba.
Senor Muruaga adds that ho had the
statements of witness that the Allianca
carried contraband of war and that sho
was only a mile and a half from tho
Cuban coast when the Conde (le Vonn
lito hailed her. He sent these state
ments and a full report of the occurrence
to the Madrid government and they con
cealed them. The Spanish press is in
dignant over these revelations and
violently attacks the United States and
the Spanish government. The news
papers declare that the action of the
United States in sending an ultimatum
was a gross abuse of strength, seeing
Spain's difficulty at the time.
DUPLICATE .MONEY ORDERS.
Postofiieo Department Put To Con
siderable Trouble.
Washington, Sept. s.—The postofllce
department has been put to considerable
trouble lately by the issuance of dupli
cate money orders for those alleged to
have been lost, misdirected or possibly
stolen by dishonest clerks. All dupli
cates have to lie issued by the depart
ment here and last year application was
made for the issuance of more than 30,-
1)00 such orders. The department finds
that in many cases both the original and
the duplicate have been paid, and in
some cases suit has been brought to re
cover the money. In order to obviate
such entanglements in the future First
Assistant Postmaster-General .lones, at
the solicitation of the auditor, has
adopted a rule not to issue duplicates iu
the future until the expiration of sixty
days from the date of t he original money
order.
