CHAT WITH DIR. WARY wALKER.
Her Admiration for President Cleveland
Benefits of Dress Reform.

dement's of Dress Reform.
From The Chicago Ne,cs.
1T is such a relief" said DR.. Mary
Walker, in referring 20 the subject Of
dress reform for women, as she sat in the
fremont House parlor yesterday after
noon, her slight figure clothed in mems
garments, which consisted Of black trou-
sers, a black Prince Albert coat, tall
white collar, about which poorly fitted
black necktie, ornamented with a large
gold slab pin. Her feet were encased in
boots, while about her shoulders
she wore a narrow black sash, the
utility Of which was not appar-
ent. ga woman dressed in mans
attire does not attract half the at
tentiOn that is accorded to one dressed in
the height of fashion," she continued. 81

pants of which did not know me, and,
therefore, did not gaze on me any more
than they would on any man. A woman
fashiOnably dressed entered. and she was
stared at by everybody. This dress re-
form is not only for health-it is a moral
reform and financial reform as well. A
man can never appreciate how much OF
womans thought and time Is taken up in
selecting materials and deciding on styles
and other details Of fashionable clothing.
Then it costs lots of money. All these
tribes are done away with by adopting
the mans dress, and woman is allowed
time to improve her mind and consider
more important affairs OF life.
Glow disgusting to think of the silly
things that a man feels called upon to say
when in fashi0nably dressed woman's
presence. You never saw man shower
me with such stuff. Usually man COM
prebends that woman WHO'S sufficiently
strOng-minded to adopt the dress reform

their places. All ask of them is to show
me the same respect, and no more, that
they would another man.
'Pohtics? Well, l supported President
Cleveland, although | don't think Presi-
dent or any other man should live with
out a wife. The Democratic victory last
fall was one of the grandest conquests Of
reform over corruption that ever oc-
CURED. No one not familiar with Wash
ington life has any idea Of the corruption
in all branches Of the government under
the Republican administrations. l do
not pretend to say that all the Republic
cans were dishonest or corrupt, but the
tendency was that way. and no one man

That's the reason why the victory over
such powerful agents was so remarkable.

A CABBY DONE FOR.
The Trick of Marquis Disguised as an
ArchbiShOp
From the Ayr Scotland Adoertissr.

From the 4 gr (SeotIandI Adgeytjssr.
Inc Marquis of Waterford was driven
home one night very late, or rather verv
early in the morning, by a stalwart and
sWellish-looking cabman. He occupied
at the time the Archbishop of Armagh's
mouse IN Charles street, st. James square.

from town. Jumping from the hanson,
ne was soon admitted by the hall porter.
who had waited up for him, and whom he
ordered to give the driver half sovereign
and dismiss him. Cabbv, so far from
being satisfied, expressed himself abus-
lyely to the servant, 1lingng him back
Inc half sovereign, although it appeared
that he had been engaged by the Marquis
only something under an hour, and
telling him that in Offering him less
than a sovereign his master was any
thing but a nobleman and a gentleman.
Finally he declared in a loud tone of voice
outside the hall that he should not think
OF taking less than sovereign. and that
ned have it, too. The insOIent bully
then waited for a moment or two to see
what effect he produced inside the house.
The Marquis, who had Just turned into
the morning room off the hall. heard al
that the cabman had said, and. being
rather partial to polishing Off DULLES i'm
those days, made up his mind on the spot
to give this particular one a prime taste
OF his quality. Perceiving his uncle's
House of Lords costume hanging up in
the morning room, he instantly donned
1t, three decker wig, gown, lawn sleeves
and all, and turned to the cabman, who
was then recommending his abuse and
swearing more fiercely than before. Halo

before the porch of the great house and
tucking up the lawn sleeves. as well as
the tail Of the gown, for action, sis that

hearing Of an Archbishop? Ifyou're not
off like a shot this moment, you profane
scoundrel, I'll give you the rights Of the
church with my clerical knuckles, and

Will make you keep civil tongue in vOul

cabman did not want pluck. Moreover,
he never thought for a moment that be had

phen B. Elkins the other day that ought
to furnish a moral were Mr.. Elkins in the
habit of devoting his talent to missionary
work. Some years ago Mr.. Elkins was
younger and less famous than he is now,
but he was ambitious. AS the story goes,
there was an influential old farmer whom
Stephen was anxious to concihate. The
old fellow had odd notions, and among
them was one that no man was worth
anything, morally, mentally or physically,
who was unable to do a full days labor
in the hay field. Steve went down
to visit his ancient friend i'm bliss

Judging ability. He had not been long at
the farm when he discovered the Old gen.
tlemans theory practically applied.
Stephen was young and confident, and be
boldly sailed out with the haymakers on
one of the hottest DAYS tha5 ever siZZled
over lOWlands. 1t was something out Of
his usual line, but Mr.. Elkins toiled away
manfully. The sun grew hotter and hot
ter and the mixture of water and mol2s-
ses which served for refreshments began
to lose its cooling effect. on came the
amateurs garments one by one, but
this did little good. AS his clothing
grew lighter his temperature steadily
grew higher and higher. Mr..
Elkins perspired as he never perspired
before. He endured it until be could
stand ne more, and in a moment Of weak
ness acknowledged himself beaten by the
weather. Ambition or no ambition, he
wanted to get cool. The farmer heard his
confession and suggested an ammonia
sponge bath; that was cooling if anything
in the world was. His visitor eagerly
adopted the suggestion, and, dragging his
parb0iled length TO the house and secur-
ing ammonia in abundance, he pro-
ceeded to the solitude of his room
to take his bath. IL worked beauti-
fully at first, and he was charmed,
so charmed, in fact, that he kept il up un-
til he began to experience very strange
sensations, sensations that kept growing
more and more peculiar until be was en-

Chinese TaiIors.
10. q HoNl Konl Letter.

from HOHg ho0g LetJeF.
The Chinese tailor absolutely swarms
in Hong Kong. l have counted twelve
neat shops in walking a quarter of a mile
on the Queens road, all Of them having
English signs and subsisting entirely by
foreign patronage. And these are only a
small part of the aggregate. There are
probably in this colony several hundred
Chinese ''merchanP' and iOurneyman tai
Tors subsisting in the same manner. The
suits they make cost from So to 500, and
are all OF European stufls. The cut may
not equal that of fashionable New York
tailor, but the garments are usually good
and becoming. 1t is not easy to estimate
the number OF persons i'm Hong Kong who
wear so-called European apparel. In
Guiding resident Europeans, half-breeds,
Portuguese of all tints, officers and sail
ors, Parsees and men of unclassided col
Ors and uneXplainable social affiliations,
there may be $4,000. In Europe or Amer
lea a community of that size would give
employment to twenty or more tailoring
establishments and a small army Of jour
neymen. There is, in fact, but one for
eign merchant tailor following that dis
tinctiYe trade, and he leads a precarious
existence. There are, besides, two for
eign firms doing a general mercantile
business that have tailoring departments.
The Chinese tailOrs supply the remaining
demand, and il may be said of the Hong
Kong male community that it is decently
and comfortably, if not eXquisltely appa-
relied. The Chinese tailor is periDatetlc.
You hear a knock ut the door of your hO-
tel. You open it and the ''tailor man"
walks in, smiling blandly, his samples in
a handkerchief under his arm. If you
select a suit he whips out tape measure
from under his tunic, takes your proper
