New York.—Plans for the establish ment of a veterinary dispensary and hospital for horses whose owners can not afford to give them proper treat- ment, have been determined by the board of managers of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Horses of cab drivers, peddlers and | poor owners will be entitled to treat- ment at the dispensary for a nominal fee or free if circumstances warrant. Beyond the relief which the handling by expert veterinarians of hundreds of cases of brute suffering will afford, it is believed the educational effect will prove valuable. Instruction in the prevention of disease in proper feeding, harnessing and general care will be given to all who care to at- tend the clinics, Nurse Elopes with Un Wing.

Mrs. S. S. Charles, of New York, claims the distinction of introducing \the fad, which was followed by half a }score of summer girls, who appeared to enjoy the sensation which they pro- duced. One girl, who refused her name and carried off her charge in a hurry to dodge photographers, met with a | mishap when a big wave toppled her and the bear over in the surf and dis jeusted lifeguards were compelled te |“rescue” the bear to placate his ex- \cited mistress, who burst into tears | when her treasure floated on top of a |big breaker. $1 a Ki Bride Gets $385.
