Paris Decrees Full Drapped

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.

The fashion of adorning ourselves
with fur has gone so far as to invent
ornaments for the hair made in this
precious material, and at the opera I
Saw two tall, fair American women with
bands of Russian sable clasped togeiher
with diamond clasps made in the form
of a Greek ' headdress.
But alas for comfort as regards our
feet this winter. Our dresses are made
so long In front that we have to lift
them to walk, and therefore we ar-s
doomed to fancy shoes. The newest.
footgear even for the daytime is pointed
slippers with large fancy buckles and
high heels.
In contrast to the full and fluffy
way of dressing the hair which has been
I In vogue for the last few seasons we
1 are now dressing our hair as flat as
possible. It is even said that the hair
I must not be waved, but drawn back
I straight and flat in the stvle of the
directolre, and instead of curls and
puffs, a long plait simplicity masses of
ornaments are used, nothing being too
fanciful or original.

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

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."
