THE HAWKESBURY HANDICAP WINNER.
Ellerdale, the Hawkesbury Handicap winner, hails from the coaly city of Newcastle, where she showed fair form on eeveial occasions The best performance to her ciedio, though, was at Kandwicic on the Ist of January la?t, when she won Tattereall's Cup of 2 milee, and beat a good field in the time of 3min 36sec. Mr Scarr's treatment of the mare in the big Sydney handicaps in comparison with Mr Barnard's, the Victoi'ian handieapper, is very marked, and was actually the "straight tip," for in the Hawkesbury and Metropolitan Stakes she respectively was allotted 6st 121 band 6&t 61b, while for the CaulHelcl and Melbourne Cups she is weighted at 7st 61b ineachevent, a very marked difference. Eller dale's win on Saturday nowraisesher weight in the Metropolitan to 650131b. Her chance of winning again looks a rosy one, but it is a strange fact that, up to the present, Cardigan is the only horse that has yet succeeded in annexing the double. Although Lamond started favourite, he appears to have thoroughly difigraded himself, while, stange to say, Torbillon's name is missing from the starters. It is fair to assume that Ellerdale's party were heavy winners over the race. Hlppona.
Popular watering-place wraps are Directoire capes of white velvet with yoldbraidecl edges, or of white cloth braided with metallic braids. It is a great piece of folly for a man to be always ready to meet trouble half way. If he would put all the journey on trouble be might never meet it. A popular youthful toilet at the fashionabls resorts is a tinted-silk blouse waist with skirts of lace, either white, or matched to the blouse in colour. Esau sold his birthright for a mess of pottage, and left Jacob's establishment dead broke. If there had been a waiter to i fee he'd have gone out in debt. ,
