PARIS MILllNERS.

lola Tells OF an Interesting Glass Of
Women I'm the Gay City.
lola, who has undertaken to write
about nearly every class of the labor
ing people of Paris, says of the MILL
ners: "Thc ranks of modistes are large.
ly recruited from the schoolmistresse
who can not find pupils, daughters OF
theatrical people who shrink from ex.
posing their children to pesils and trials
Of life on the stage and girls whose par
ents have come down in the world.
Never does farisian milliner allow
herself to be called All ouv'iere. She is on
the contrary Il demoiscllcs and the very
poorest of these demoiselcs would die
rather than cross the street like work
girl, that is to say without hat and
gloves. In some great milliner houses,
dignity is SO much thought of that the
staircase leading to the modesto room
is often marked les Escalicr DIES Kris
tes.' The apprentice milliner who has
paid a premium is allowed to sew wire
around hats and to work on old mod
els, while the charity apprentice picks
up pins from the floor of the workroom,
runs crrands and carries parcels and
bonnet-boxes all over Paris. After two
years apprenticeship the modiste be-
comes IN opprctcusc and earns about
$40 month, eagerly awaiting
the time of her elevation TO the POI
sition of trimmer. These trimmcrs are
the swclls of the profession. They are
to be met with every where looking
for hints. They are at the first nights
of the new plays scanning with close
attention the audience and the act
resses. They attend fashionable we'd
dings at the Madeleine. and even hunt
in the book shops on the quays, get
ting suggestions from old-fashioncd
prints Not so well paid, but also inn
portant, are the sellers, who have TO
possess great deal of tact, and if they
can speak English, and wait on Eng
lish and American customers, they get
as much as $500 n year. Mllncrs are
divided into two classes, those in shops
and those in private rooms or apart
ments. The shopkccping bonnet-maker
is not creator of fashions and fire.
quently sends her most aristocratic-
looking assistant in the guise of a Gus
toner TO the private rooms of leading
milliners In order to ask for and get
hints from the novelties of the season.
Sometimes the trick is discovered, and
vengeance Is taken in many ways Pc
culiar TO the inventive female mind.
Once when one of these forcwomen
was detected by n fashionable Nine.
Mantalni she locked her up in closet
and kept her there on bread and water
until her crcstfallen mistress came to
claim her.-N y World.

SOME of the newspapers are making
merry over the fact that all attempt wa.
made to stuff the ballot-box while til.
members of the Methodist general con
ference, recently In session in New York
were voting on candidates fsr bishop
In couple of instances two tickets with
the corners turned down 80 that the,
locked like single ticket were found
They were evidently voted by one per
son, with the belief that they Meuld sep.
arate in the box and do double duty
But, so far as we can see, this attempt t.
tamper with the franchise only proves
that some Democratic politicians were
present as lay delegates. We don't be.
lleve any of the ministers did it. A
Methodist preacher might possibly be in.
duced to stuff himself with yellow. legged
chicken, but they are certainly not given
to balletbox stufing.
