The victoria of ‘a decade ago was a Nght concern intended for one horse, then it got heavier and was built for two horses, and. indeed, it would be imposible for one horse to draw one of the larger ones. At first they were rather high. then they became low, with s long sweep from the back to the driver's seat. Two years ago they were as open as possible and the occu- nts, when the top was down, were very visi- le, but now the new victorias are higher, the buck is high and the body is «hort. Ifanybody wants to study these different types of vehicles just let him go up Connecticut avenue any fine afternoon and he will see them FASHION IN VEHICLES. It Changes Almost as Frequently as Do Fash- jens in Clothes— The Evolution of a Man's Taste in Carriages as His Means to Gratify It Increase. EOPLE WHO WENT tothe Dumblane races Tuesday and Thursday bad a fine opportunity to observe the various styles of vehicles that are now used by those who keep up with the fashion on wheels. In the infield there was everything, from the village cart to the tally-ho coach, and how easily some of them roll over the road could be observed om the way out to the tr: There were o few sidebar buggies there, a number of light buckboards and several dog carts as heavy a8 hansom cabs, There were victorias, with long, sweeping bodies and perches for the coachman and footman up among the clonds almost, and there were high-backed “chunky” victorias cor- rect according te the latest wrinkle. Fashion and good form are as manifest in the weulth that goes on wheels as in anything else. In point of fact a swell is more particular about his carriages thay he is about his personal ap- pearance, and just as he gets new clothes when | the cut of his old ones changes although they | may not be worn out, so does he change his ear- | Tages as soon as new styles come in, ‘This is not as heavy an item of expense in Washington as it is in other centers of wealtb, for the Teason that earringes last longer bere than they do anywhere else.

HER HEROIC JOURNEY ACROSS DARKEST AFRICA TO SRE FOR HEUSELY THE CONDITION OF THE WOMEN IN THAT COUNTRY—SOME OF HER WON- DERFUL EXPERIENCES GRAPHICALLY TOLD, For one plucky little American woman— charming combination of femininity and fear- lessness that she is—to have traveled 400 miles into the interior of Eest Africa is of itself a matter for marvel. For the same little woman to have made that journey unaceompanied by | another white person, trusting herself in that | savage land to the merey of hireling natives, and to return safe and unharmed, is unprece- dented in the annals of exploration. Yet that is what Mrs. M. French-Sheldon did, and she was alive and well in Washington last night to teli of it, ‘The journey was made by Mrs. Sheldon at her own expense to investigate the conditions | surrounding the life of the women and‘childreng of the interior tribes.

The ivory market at Bagamoya is shown, with its great piles of elephant's tusks, every one of which has costa human life to bring to this place. A touching picture of the little slave children, torn from their parents in the inter- tor, touches the hearts of the ladies in the wn ence. It is neceseary in tandem driving to be high ‘up above your horses also, and the dog cart is well arranged for this. The village cart, which is a low, two-wheeled vehicle, is a mcst conven- ient and useful little thing. Its proper uses are for shopping in the country town. It can hold ‘any umber of ba ules, and the lady who drives it has no difticulty in gettirg in and out as often as she chooses. It is true that it drags heavily on the horse, but it is not intended for driving Jong distances in, and it is a dit ble cir- cumstance that many village carts wabble, but this can be prevented if the box is skillfully swung over the wheels. It must be admitted that the village cart is not as good as the basket phaaton, but no two-wheeled vehicle ever is as good for ordinary driving purposes ag a four- wheeled vehicle. say THE BUCKBOARD. The ultra followers of fashion gave up the buggy for the cart and now they have given up the cart for the beckboard. This is a sensible ebange. as the buckboard is the vehicle best adapted for every-day pleasure driving. Yet the buekboard of the cities is not at all the gen- uine buckboard of the mountains. The latter is a cheap vehicle designed for use over rough roads, where «prings would be pretty sure to break. It consists of several strong springy planks, about six feet long, with stout, medium- sized wheels at the two ends. This wagon drags rather heavily, but is hard to break and is com- TRAVELED IN A PALANQUIX. She traveled ina palanquin made of wicker work, which two natives carried. At night when camp wag made che slept ina tent pitched in the midst of her little army, who, in smail tents, lay between her and the prowling lions of the night. A murmur of admiration goes aronnd when the camera flashes upon the canvas the picture of Chaka, the Abyssinian, the slayer of men, stalwart savage, but who had a heart as tender achild for the little woman under his care. Next a chicken coop with pickaninny astride of it. The lecturer explains that chicken rais- ing is a national industry and that they havea great proneness for the same fowl #o much affected by their colored brethren in America. Next the picture of a village of hostile na- tives who were bad men. She was warned against them, but entered unarmed and unes- corted. She was trested with every courtesy and sent away loaded with presents. “Six weeks later Carle Peters, the noted German fo meeps pelled to reached the same place and was com} kill 120 natives before he could fortable.

Finally she arrived at Lake Chara, that mys- terious body of water bubbling and foaming in a voleano’s crater, rising and falling in sudden movements, obedient to some unseen subter- ranean force. The lake is shunned by the natives of the surrounding country, who believe it to be the home of the devil. No ore would go with her to it at first. even her own men sharing the general superstition. Eventually, however, by dint of double pey and sundry presents, she induced men todeseend the steep sides of the crater with her and lanreb her pontoon boat on the lake. She circum- navigated the Inke and took photos of its inter- esting headlands and the snow-capped moun- tains towering above its troubled surface. Her return to the coast was but a repetition of the incidents of the first trip and was made without mishap. In fact, the whole journcy of this lone Woman wns accomplithed without ac- cident or misfortune to mar it. Her deductions from the observations made of the people are fl they are happy, innocent set, with a great deal of native mirth and are savage only when goaded to it by the attacks of invading white men, ivory merchants and slave dealers. quite different. In many cases steel springs are sed to assist the spring of the planks, and the body is made shorter and higher. There are a good many buekboards made on the old Brineiple, but they are so improved that it is ieult to trace a resemblance to the rural tray "nm heavily in the middle and contin yup and down like a seesaw.

Now, coaches are a modern invention for the amusement of very rich men. They have no wwe in the world; they are simply toys. About ten yeurs ago they were nesrly all built in imi- tation of the gemtine old-fashioned mail coach, which used to be used in England betore raii- Toads existed.

Anybody ea go out to Falls Chureh and see for himself. But the American stage coach was not @ beautiful or comfortable convevance. It wax roughly built for rongh work, and did not di materially from the stage coach that one fi in the far west now. ‘When the modern “coach- ing” became the fashion among rich men they accepted the English coach, and it is still used by many of them. Butit ix so uselessly heavy and witha! ungainly that it has given way in a number of cases to the drag, which is a high- seated vehicle, boliing considerable number Of people and possessing all the advantages of the coach with none of its disadvantages. Not east among its advantages i* the fact that it conte very much less. You can put it down asa fact that the man who keeps a cogeh and a drag is rich, and that ae would Ss ogee deal richer if he gave them ‘THE WOMEN OF AFRICA. Being a woman she was afforded many oppor- tunities, which would be denied a man, of studying the women. She found them a gen- crous and kind-bearted wet and not heentious. Polygamy prevails, but it is not the polygamy of Turkey. When a man has more plantations than he ean work he takes an additional wife to help him. She is bailed with delight by the other wives, who see in her only another broad back toshare their burdens, After the exhibition of the stereopticon views the lecturer exhibited a number of cuxios which sbe brought back with her, and they were examined with jaterest by the audience, Jt was only a year ago that she made the trip to Africa ani nlready she is desiring to go back. —+——— Ready for the Ball, From Judge. small fortune in the first » them Up requires a yearly ex- t to support twe or three or- EXPENSIVE VEMICLES. @xt most expensive vehicle ix the landagy-J# can cost anywhere from $1,000 Up.
