TIGHT DRESS DOOID TO VANISH Paris Decrees Full Drapped Gowns Shall Take Place" of ' Sheath Costumesr-Fash vionable Fur Will Be tlie Moleskin: r J By Countess de Carll. (Hctnt New by Longest Leased Wire.) Paris. Nov.' 2S. Though Paris Is tht recognised city of the Initiative In fashion, it Is a recognized fact that it Is at the American houses of the Paris colony and the houses where Americans visit that one sees the most beautiful costumes. It Is a matter of astonish ment here that there has been such aa outcry In America against the dlrectolre, the fsylphe" and the "sheath'i costumes, because here all the American women wear them. ' It is whispered, however, that this winter will see an end to the erase for tight clinging dresses, and that next spring we shall be wearing gowns that are draped and full. But let us talk of furs, and cer tainly they have never been so beau tiful and sumptuous. They are made In ell shapes and of alt kinds of fur, from the. long slbeline -coats, whose soft sup pleness lends itself to every movement, to the redingotes made of ottoman, lined with ermine, and literally loaded with 'magnificent embroideries. Then we have those beautiful loose sleeveless coats of ermine, which are thrown over the evening dress when go ing to the theatre, not to mention those delightful Japanese cloaks in all sorts of fur, made with long sleeves and ev ery luxury of elegance. Among the novelties this season are the quaint little stoles whloh are put over the head, the two enda being joined In a sort of muff trimmed with tail.. - Each year the price of furs goes up. A skin which has become particularly expensive ia the slbeline, which has a thick, furry tall, but a tiny body, being- so much In demand that a single skin costs $3000. , There Is, however, one thing in favor of these almost price less furs their durability. They last for generations. ... . . A fur which will be very fashionable this winter Is the moleskin. I saw Princess Bdmond de Pollgnae In tin Rue de la Paly one afternoon wearing a beautiful long coat of moleskin over a move-colored tailor-made skirt and a tulle blouse of the samp shade (tbeso tulle blouses dyed to the shade of the costume are a feature of the season). Baroness Henri de Rothschild, too, who is always in the height Of fashion also wears a moleskin coat in the new dlrectolre styles long 'and with large revers, the back cut in a point and tho sleeves fnll and long.

New York, Nov. 28. "Old Faithful of the Fifth Ffeld Artillery, United States, army, has been ordered put on the retired list with all the honors due to long and faithful servk-e. Old Faith- IUI. WIIU UBL'U l vv Kliuwii ai ruumiii, and later as Peking, is a horse, and there is not an officer or enlisted man in the entire service who has not lis tened to the stories of this old horse's wonderful Intelligence and his splendid battle record. At the beginning of the Spanish American war Putnam, as he was then called, was young and strong and was earning a livelihood as a draught horse in New Haven, Conn. The Tale battery was then organised and among the ani mals procurea ror pulling tne oranance of that command was Putnam. Putnam took to army life as a duck does to water, and in less than six weeks what he didn't know about pulling an artil lery gun carriage' was not worth know ing. The fame of the animal spread throughout the regular and volunteer armies, and us one of the regular com mands ordered to Cuba needed a first class, Intelligent artillery horse, Put nam was transferred to the regulars, and went to Cuba In time to take part in the campaign that ended in the ca pitulation at Santiago. He made such a fine record at El Caney and In the assaults on Santiago proper that when the war was over Putnam was brought back to the United States and sent to Port Hamilton, In Brooklyn, as a "eap ual." to recuperate, from the strenuous service be had gone through. A few months at Fort Hamilton made a new horse of Putnam, rend early In 1899 he wan ordered to Manila as one of-the artillery horses of Battery V of the Fifth Field artillery, under com mand of Captain Reilly. The fall of 1899 was one of the most strenuous in the history of the Philippine war, and during October and November of that year old Putnam did the work of half a dozen horses, participating in every engagement that the troops under Gen eral Swan fought In the expedition through Cavtte province. The Boxer Outbreak. The following year came the Boxer outbreaks In China and the organisa tion of the allied armies for the res cue of the Teking legations. The Ninth United States infantry and a battery of field artillerv were sent to China to represent the United States In that ad vance, the commander of the Americans being Lieutenant General Adna R. Chaffee. The finest artillery horses In the Philippines were sent along to pull the field guns, and of course one of those horses was old Putnam. Putnam shared In every one of the engagements In which the allied forces participated, and long before Peking was relieved he Vas the best known horse that ever trod Chinese soil. So well did he do his work- that- the sol diers dropped Putnam ns his name and substituted that of Peking, for It was said they knew that If any part of the allied armv reached the Chinese can- Ital it was a 10 to 1 net tnat mis 01a horse would be In at the finish, and so he was. Failed First Field Oua. " Whan the allied armies arrived In sight of Peking the old Yale horse with another horse, known as Corregldor, was pulling the first of the American light field guns. The American artil lerymen had orders to take a position on a hill overlooking Peking, and the gun that Peking and Corregldor were pulling was the first that was ordered Into position, just as they had started . 4 POSTUM A Liquid Food For Brain, Body and Nerves. X TheiVt a Reason" up the hill the traces behind Corregldor broke, ana tne artillerymen were in a quandary when one of ' the gunners shouted: "Cut Corregldor loose and let Peking pun it up oy nimseir. -There was an answering veil of ap proval and a moment later, straining every muscle, Peking started up that 1 hill, and the soldiers tell to this day j how he 'arrived there In time for tne American gun to open fire first on the troubled city. Since that time Peking has had but one name, -Old Faithful, and under this he has been ordered re tired by the war department. After the Chinese problem was solved Peking went back to his old regiment In the Philippines, where he has since served on duty every dav until a few weeks ago. Then Colonef Edward T. Brown, who had always taken an Inter est In the horse, noticed- that he was getting too old and fat to do his work as well as formerly. Under the Ameri can laws no horse can be brought hack to the United States from the Phillp- fines on account of certain diseases hey are subject to on the islands, which they might infect the animals at home. Colonel Brown did not want Old Faithful sold to the Manila cart ped dlers, and he recommended to General Pershing, the department commander, that the long and splendid services of Old Faithful entitled him to an old age of peace and comfort at the ex pense of the United States government. General Pershing agreed with him. and so did General Weston, the commander in chief in the Philippines. Now the secretary of war has acquiesced, and from now on till the end of his life Old Faithful will be cared, for by the gov ernment he haB served so long and well. FRANCE PROTESTS BALLOON INVASION 'United Prr 1-ou-d Wire.) Paris, Nov. 28. Protest against the invasion of French territory by German army officers who neglected to secure passports and crossed the line In bal loons is made by newspapers here. The papers declare that hardly a day passei that some German officer doe not land from a balloon on Fieneh soil. An of ficial is quoted as saying: "It's getting so you can't shake a tree In France without dlslodaina a German arrtur officer. "You can hardly glance up to see what the weather looks like without getting a dose of Berlin ballast In your eyes. It used to be that a German armv of- fleer who wished to cross the frontier required passports. Now all he needs is a oreese. "In the course of time, if the supply of balloons and armv officers last, the kaiser may have a bigger fighting frc on this side of the line than he has in Germany." Mrs. Maria Ludlam of Oadby, Leices tershire, England, is 100 years old. She has long been a smoker and her friends have marked the anniversary of her birth by sending her parcels of tobacco.'
