FrOIn the August Number of the Hat
Trade Review.
This year we may regard it as a rath-
eI pleasing fact that. as a rule pretty
I well established by an extended record.
iAugust is an "of! month" in the hat
trade—~a time for vacation. recreation,
contemplation and anticipation: or un-
der prevailing conditions of unusually
uttseascuable weather and the general
disposition to await the introduction of
all the autumn styles preliminary to
large buying. It would have ranked as
a quiet month. Now that the results of
the summer selling are known, the
shelves have in one way and another
been cleared of the light- -welghts, and
profits have been counted. purchases
by retailers will doubtless begin in
earnest and duplicate orders from
wholesalers will come fonard in in-
c reusing numbers as the cool days and
frosty nights of autumn run tlteir
course to thc (lose of the year. We
trust that the sincerely entertained
hopes of increased prosperity will be
fully rcaiized by the trade at largo~
manufacturers, wholesalers and re
tellers everywhere-as the reward of
merit manifested In good business
methods.
Soft hat brims are somewhat smaller
than they have been. wingy hats not
being regarded as quite as “fly" as they
were last season; popular brims are
2% and 2%, and In instances 3 inches
at the front. and somewhat narrowar

Crowns are 5%., 5% and 6 deep. the
middle number being popular with

SUITS NOT WITHDRAWN.
Rumors of Settlement of the Qulntard-
Irsdley Case.
It Is stated that. negotiations tend-
Ing to a settle ent of the litigation
arising from he est-spade of Miss
Alico Bradley and Charles E Quin
tard are In progress. There are at
present suits brought by Mrs. Quin-
tard against Miss Bradley for $50,000
for allcnatlons of affections; also a suit
brought against Mr. Quintnrd by his
wife charging abandonment. A com
fercnce was held In New York last
Tuesday. both Mrs. Quinlard and Miss
Bradley being represented by counsel.
Mrs. Quintard is credited with say-
ing that there will be no settlement
on the basis of a transfer of a part
of Miss Bradley's property. The
salts which are filed In the superior
court of this county, have not been
withdrawn.
HELPING OUT A POET.
Shortly after the, publication of Ten-
nysou's famous poem, “A Vision of
Sin." the laurcnte was somewhat star
tied to receive from Mr. Babbage. the
renowned arithmetlclsn, a letter which
ran as follows:
Dear Sir—l find in a recently pub-
llshetl pocm fro mynttr pcn, entitled "A
Vision of Sin." the following unwar-
if rInIabIe statement:
"Every moment dies rt man.
Every moment one is born."
I need hardly point out to you that
this cnlucuintion. if correct. would tend
to keep the sum total of the world‘s
population in a state of perpetual cqui~
poise. whereas It is a well known fact
that the said sum total is constantly on
the Increase. I would therefore take the
libcla,§ suggesting that in the next
will your excellent poem the or-
roneous calculation to which i refer
:hould be corrected as follows:
Every moment dies a man
And one and s sixteenth is born.
I may add that the exact figures are
1.167. but something must of course be
conceded to the laws of meter. 1 have
the honor to be. sir yours. sincerely
