It did not make m very good flag. At first Clancy moved down the safe side of th bridge, and wig-wagged there hastily. But what with the flag being so (poor for the purpose, and the background or the ridge being bo dark, those on the Dolphin, did not see it. I Bo Clancy had to return to the top of the ridge, and outline himself and his flag against the aky. j "As soon as the Spaniards caught 'sight of his silhouette, they let go like i mad at it. To make things more uncomfortable for Clancy, the situation demanded that he face the sea and turn his back to the Spanish bullets. This was a hard game, mark you to stand with the small of your back to Tolley firing. Clancy thought so. Everybody there thought so. We all cleared out of his neighborhood. -If he wanted sole possession of any particular spot on that bill, he could have It for all we would Interfere with him. Clancy In a Hurry. "It cannot be denied that Clancy was In a hurry. I watched him. He was so occupied with the bullets that snarled close to his ears that ha waa (obliged to repeat the letters of his .message softly to himself. It seemed 'an Intolerable time before the Dolphin answered the signal. Meanwhile, we gated at him, marveling every second What he had not yet pitched headBong. He swore at times. I "Finely the Dolphin replied to bis Eantle signaling and he delivered his essage. When his part of the tranictlon was flnlshed he dropped like a brick into the firing line and began .to shoot. The blue neckerchief still 'fluttered from the barrel of his rifle. I am quite certain that he let it remain there until the end of the fight."

der what the programs of the Thomas orchestra's concerts during the last nineteen years in Chicago if they Kad been correctIy Indexed contain no record of a performance of the Schumann concerto for violoncello and orchestra, yet they list the name3 ot many" Important visiting and resi'dent masters of the instrument. we have. In the meantime, heard a Spendcd on the Thomas concerts for ! musical entertainment, -have not aetually heard the composition until it - as brought forward yesterday by the 'young Dutch "cellist, Paulo Gruppe. , now we know why other 'cellists have avoided it. Not only is it enormously difficult, but much of the beauty of the solo part is nullified by an inadequate orchestral accompaniment. At least that which Mr. Stock played for Mr. Gruppe gave the impression of insufnicent volume and body of tone to properly support the solo part. Chicago Tribune. SPECIAL MUSIC.

In In nor nf Mr VrnnV Kllintt CONCERNING LEADER. Leopold Stokovski's scheme . for this year's course of the Cincinnati Symphony orchestra is a mirror of his musical contemplations, modified by the demands of musically educated audience such as that which has been trained in Cincinnati through local orchestral work and periodical May Festivals. This is the second season in Cincinnati for Mr. Stokovskl and he Is moulding bis orchestra into the classical form which the modern day has established for the production of the masterpieces and the treatment of the expanded orchestral work or our times. As the orchestra, the permanent orchestra, as we know it now, is a question of evolution, and as that evolution consists not only of the broadening out of the forces but of the elimination of useless or interfering material, and also of an attainment of virtuosity, the graduated steps are, in themselves, a study of the capacity of the leadership, leaving the significance of that leadership to the general scheme.

FADS AND FASHIONS

New Ycrk, .Dec. 10. To those interested In the vagaries of the fashion the display of women's costumes at the recent horse show furnished a valuable and fascinating object lesson. It was an interesting fact that at the afternoon sessions at least three out of every five well dressed women were in" b!ack or black and white. Evei the young girls were not exception to that ru'e and many of them looked charming n their jaunty black velvet suits or frocks, worn with wiiite fcx f.irs and broad brimmed girlish white beaver hats or quaint little white velvet cr beaver toques. After black and white the colors most afteeted by t'je modish women among the visitors of the horse show j seemed to be certain shades of dark j violet and purple, grays of the vaiw, (mouse and medium tones ratlier than on the taupe shades so Ions popular, land the deep blues, one saw red cf the burgundy tone, and rather more ! dark brown t'aan usual, though for ; Home reason or other it is the exceptional ccstume in brown which succeeds in looking noticeably chic. ', lu tlio evening, of course, there wes jmore light coloring in the toilettes, yet i even here there was a predominance of black and white and of sombre tones. A flash of cerise, rose, coral, gold, ligit clear green oj vivid blue brightened the effect here and there, and there were a few evening frocks ; in delicate tones and ia white touched jwith black-or with silver or gold, j Venitian held precedence over Irish 'lace for tho embellishment of tho 1 handsomest black velvet frocks, but ; often there was no heavy lace at all. ifr.r cr satin cr embroidery supplying itre heavy trimming, while soft, fine lace gave the necessary becoming relief. The use of the fur upon short 'ccet and skirt costumes was very gen eral and wliere the des'gn was cleverly ; handled ar.d the fnr of good quality) the results were excellent. ! The sulphur and mustard yellow.?' and browns were used fcr some good 1 horse show frocks, the afternoon wool-1 len costumes in these shades being worn with dark furs and often- trimmed with b.ack velvet- or dark fur, while for evening satins, crepes, chif fons and -velvets were in order. Light 'tones of velvets, however, were not wasted for horse, show purposes, be lng too delicate and easily soiled.

Bancroft, president t the .Illinois State Bar association, iu speaking on the subjec t of employers liability at a recent meeting of that body declared .that the chief importance of such legislation did not lie In the legal questions involved nor In a sure recompense for injured workmen. --It lies." he said, "in the fact that if a plan is found for insuring every workman against loss through accidents in bis employment It will not only end the personal Injury disputes between employer and employee and relieve the courts of a very large burden, but it will also preserve the independence of the men ami their families and at the same time remove entirely the wasteful antisocial Influence of such strife and unite, as they should be united, the employer and the employees in a common interest and purpose."
