Ar OIen Which Will tlclp la tha Detail. lBKiclnl Cornseionilnice.l New Vohk, Aug. 13. Tho iiwfui nml ttncomfortftblo scantiness of riding hub its is giving way to a more graceful anil womanly arrangement of tho skirt with a little drapery placed on tho sides which lays across tho limbs in ploaslng folds It takes away that drawn, skimpy up giearanco whilo adding little to tin length or weight of tho skirt Such 11 chango will bo welcomed by every ludy who rides, for If she chance to bo very thin it hidos her hotlines?, and if rather stout tho folds In sotno way deceive the eye, and thus tho habit is an all round blessing. When a lady can afford to hire her habits mndo by a tailor slio is glad, but there aro many who cannot and who yet llko to ride. If thoeo ladlos will read this carefully they will bo ablo to make their own riding hablta just aa well an a tailor. A riding habit consists of a pair of trousers, a basquo and skirt. I give no illustration of tho trousers, for some ladies prefer tho loose, Turkish style, which any tyro can cut and tnako, and thoso who prefer tho others can get n pattern in any of the stores that make a business of selling patterns, and they are plenty oven in tho smallest towns They should be roomy to admit of bending the kueo over tho pommel. The basquo is llko any other, only that it has small postilions at tho back ami la stitched around tho edge for a fin ish. The collar is high and close, or rolling, to but ton over a chemi sette and collar, as is preferred. Tho seams aro all whale boned. Short riding cor sets, if any, are to bo worn, as thoso with long steels often cause perious Injuries. Many ladies wear no corseta at all, but a close fitting undervest. In making the basquo, as well as tho skirt, every seam should be pressed flat as soon as it is sewn, with a hot iron, on the wrong side. Tho senm should bo mois tened first, untl stylish tho pressing should not KIDINO IIA1I1T bo omitted on any senm. On tho left side the seams can bo sowed straight all tho way down, and then but tons and loops can be set ou tho side seam, so that when walking tho skirt can bo loopeil us as shown In tho pic tures, and these let out when on tho horse, lint tho plaits on tho left side aro sewed in with tho seam to luiu. the dra)ory across tho right leg when in the saddle. The trousers nro made rather wider around tho ankle than before, to make tho foot look smaller Black surge, cheviot, diagonal, Thibet cloth and camel's hair aro all suitable materials for riding liabits. Thoy do not require skirt lining, but should be hemmed about four inches deep at tho bot tom, with a thickness of buckram tacked firmly inside, and the top edge sewed to a piece of flimsy material which is then hemmed to the outer material just as u man's pantaloons are hemmed. Some sow flat pieces of lead in the hem on tho seams, but with tho interlining of buck ram thoy aro not necessary, and are sometimes a source of danger with a high spirited horse, as they flap against his sides. The hat is a medium high "stove pipe" for those who consider themselves very stylish, and does look better for ceremoni ous park rides, but for everyday riding DETAIIS OP IUIMNO I1AIIIT a neat fitting derby, with a half cockade of black ribbon at one sido, is perhaps better and not so apt to give ouo a head ache. Tho ugly llttlo jockey caps that some affect aro decidedly in bad tasto for a lady on horseback, for she It conspicuous enoun tu U10 qulotest of garb and head gear without trying to bo odd. Tho hair should bo braided snugly and fas tened strongly In one close coil with tew flouting ends, except when tho rider U a very young girl. Even then It is sater to have tho hair arranged in such a fushlon that it cannot blow into the eyes. Gauntlet gloves of dogskin or suede are do ngeur, and in place of tho English crop, whitVi Is quite out of place here, a dainty tapering ltKle whip with a K CITY COURIER, SATURDAY, AUGUST 22, prettily carved Ivory or tnotal handle li used. A pocket for tho handkerchief, some extra hairpins and a small bottlo of smelling salts should bo placed ou tha right side where it is easily roachod. When tho wenthor grows chilly tho habit basquo should bo interlined with quilted satin, or a chamois skin vest should bo worn, and this should come up closo in tho neck and reach well down below tho waist lino In front. This precaution will prevent any possi bility of taking cold on tho client, which Is always a great danger to lady riders. Hlack Is altogether tho most ladylike and stylish habit, but many young la dies llko color, and bottlo groen, navy blue, A.A. brown and dark plum are ad tulssible. A very few aro seen of puppet and wilt gray. In making the habit basquo it must not bo drawn tight anywhere. The arm sizes must bo roomy, tho sleeves longi'i and looser than for another dress mrl around the waist it must bo free ami quite looso enough to permit of n ver long, full breath, otherwise a short ridi will give tho riderasovero pain In In-i sido. Across tho bust in front it inuM bo roomy, but between tho shoulders In tho back it can lie qui to snug, and aid to keep an erect, squaro shouldered ihisI Hon. Mentioning that tho hat should bo held on with a stout elastic, finishes tho talk ou a riding habit, and 1 hope every lady will bo ablo to have and to uso one, Oi.ivk I1auit.ii YOUTHFUL SUCCESSES. Yoinitf Men Who Have Won In l,ltar- turi', Hrlencn ami Art. IJOSTON, Aug. 13. Clyde Fitch, the brilliant young dramatist, whoso "Dean Urummeir was It his or Richard Mans- ll.vl.1t.. ,l.A .!.... nl l..fr ....n.... la lieill O Wll IIIU I'lllV Ul IIHI BV.lOUIl, 10 1 onlytwenty-flvo.' lie graduated at An, ! herst a few days after Ills twenty-first oirtliuay, ami since men no mis none much literary worn in auw ioru ami IJostoti Doth cities claim him He lives, howover, In Now York in luxnri ous (iu-tlo-siecle apartments at tho Slier wood. Since "Ueitu Urummell" achieved no great a success, Mr. Fitch has written a ono act comedy, "Hetty's Finish" for the Boston Museum, "A Modern Match," a three act comedy, accepted by Augustus Pitou, and a comedy for Mrs. John Wood, to bo enacted at the Hoyal Court theater, London. lie also wrote the com plete novel, in ono of this year's numbers of Lippincott's, "A Wave of Life." said to have had a larger sale than any of their magazine novels since "Tho Quick or the Dead." His "Frederick Lemaitro" has been translated into French and will be produced at Paris. This is tho first American play translated for this pur pose. During his visit to tho French capital to superintend the rehearsals, Mr. Fitch Is said to have been tho guest of Sardou, an honor accorded to few Science rarely accords honors to the young. Recognition, as a rale, come; only with years ButMerrit L. Fernald is an exception. At the ago of seventeen ho is assistant botanist and herbalist at Harvard, and is well known in scientific circlea He bears his honors modestly having contradictod many wild state meuts of some ovorimaginative para graphists Many young men in New York are at tho head of magazines and newspapers, either as editors or as proprietors James S. Motealf, of Life, is one of the young est and the mo.st prominent of the edi tors. Ho was born at Buffalo thirty-thros years ago. His first literary venture was Tho Modern Ago an electric monthly of which ho was autocrut in his twenty- fifth year In every position ho has been a tireless worker, and his success is fully deserved. If his countenance keen blue oye, smooth shaven face and firm set mouth bo an outward symbol of his na ture, he is, then, critical, determined and lacking in sympathy. It is a natural and easy transition from tho editor of Life to ouo of tho cleverest artists of that bright little paper. Clif tonl Uarieton, the nanusomo young draughtsman, whoso work, both on Life and Harper's Young People, has brought him to tho front rank of "black and white" men, is only twenty-three years of age. Providence is his homo, but for the last three years he has been living in New York, where, since the beginning of 1600, ho has been a teacher at tho Art Students' league, and also a member of tho board of control. His drawing, al ways accurate, is distinguished by strong personality and sympathetic interpreta tion, and his effects are intelligently con ceived and positive. Charles Dana Gibson is another of Life's well known artists, ami iu his spe cial line society sketches is acknowl edged to bo unequaled. He is a tall, stylish looking fellow, rather heavy of faco and form, and fond of society. When Paul Peel, of London, Cauada, was awarded tho gold medal at tho Paris salon last year, "the graybeards" wore filled with surprise and chagrin, The idea of this "youngster," thirty years of ago, walking off with the prize was gall ing to them. But art Is no respecter of ago, as many successes of tho past few yearB ovidence. Bastieu-Lepage was but twenty-one when he began exhibiting, and in bis thirty-first year he paiuted his great work, "Joan of Arc," now hanging at tho Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. Even before ho was twenty-six he had taken a medal at the Paris salon, another tho following year, also ouo of tho second prizes at Rome; and iu his thirty-first year was decorated with the cross of the Legion of Honor. Where over Mario Bashkirtboffs Diary goes Le page is known, and interest in him nml his work is quickened; and his untimely death occurring a few weeks after her own is more and more deplored. Alfted St ,lohuton, who died recent ly, was only thirty-three years old. He will long bo remembered, however, b) his delightful additions to our literature "A South Sea Lover" and "Camping Among Cannibals" aro probably tho be.si of his many books The brilliant color lug and the fresh charm of narrative tu tho latter book, while distinctively otiu inal, yet reminds one strongly of "T pee," Melville's masterpiece ALL A MATTER OF TASTE. nehif a lllnlngut.
