HATPINS AND WOMEN.
American efforts to regulate tbs
length of women's hatpins, In order
to lessen the danger therefrom, are
the extreme of mildness when com-
pared with the drastic measures
adopted by the railway administration
of Saarbrucken, Germany. In this
country numerous municipal bodies
have discussed the hatpin question,
and a few have fixed upon a certain
number of Inches as the length to !
which women could lawfully go in the
wearing of hat fasteners, says the j
Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph. So i
far as known, however. there has
never been an attempt to enforce such I
an ordinance—probably for the rea- '
son that American women are consld- •
ered able to regulate such matters for '
themselves. It remained for the afore-
said German railway administration !
to prescribe a desperate remedy for |
what seems to be regarded over there ,

The Percussion Cap.
There was a long, tense silence.
The cowled figures had risen omin-
ously; Miss Tborne paled behind her
mask, and her flrfgers gripped her
palms fiercely, still she sat motion-
less. Prince d'Abruzsi broke the si-
lence. He seemed perfectly calm and
self possessed.
"How did you get in?" he demand-
ed.
"Throttled your guard at the front
door, took him down cellar and locked
him In the coal-bin." replied Mr.
Grimm tersely. "I am waiting for
you to burn it."
"And how did you escape from—
from the other place?"
Mr. Grimm shrugged his shoulders.
"The lamp Is In front of vou," ho
said.
And find your way here?" the
prince pursued.
Again .Mr Grimm •• shrugged his
shoulders. For. an instant longer the
prince gazed straight Into his in-
scrutable face,-then turned accusing
eyes on the masked figures about him.
"Is there a traitor?" he demanded
suddenly. His gaze settled on MJss
Thorne and lingered there.
