CoIffures Among the Tenements'
NclD York sun.

Almost the last thing one would expect
To find in the east side tenement dis
trict is a hair-dressing establishment.
1t would seem somewhat dubious that
the sign Bangs Cutand Curled" should
have much attraction in neighborhoods
where the bakers window is tempta-

the fear OF the law.
But there are good many OF these
''parlors" where you would least expect
TO find them. There is one on Temp
kins square, another farther down on
Avenue A, and still others between
there and Grand street, where some
pretentious ones do a thriving business.
The shop girls are the chief hope OF tn
Grand street hair-dresser. 1t is gener-

whom Do Women Dress to Please?

~--D
Whom Do Women Dress TO Please?
There is a certain set of questions
over which people unfailingly wrangle.
The public setting off Of one OF these
Queries is like the firing OF the first gun
in battle. A fusiIlade Of argument is
sure to follow.
One of these deadly questions is
whether women dress to please men or
their sister women. The Boston Globe
sent the inquiry to various people whose
views it thought might be of some in
terest. and printed page OF answers.
OF course, the conclusion is the one al
ways furnished by these journalistic
symposia-that is, tho doctors disagree,
and there is a verdict OF 'siX or one and
half dozen of the other"
Possibly, in this case there may have
been a balance Of power with those who
believed that a woman goes forth with
an eve to the effect she will produce on
her feminine neIghbors. Some OF the
debaters agree with Harriet Prescott
Spofford, who thinks that women dress
to please themselves alone, not men,
nor vet other women. Mr.. Walter
Chase of the Boston Camera Club begs
not 70 be considered egotistic, but
thinks he has detected a feminine
hankering after masculine approval,
and in a climax Of conviction breathes
a reference to decolete evening gowns
and Narragansett Pier bathing suits.
Some Of the correspondents shoot wide
of the mark, and get OF vigorous u
rades on their favorite hobbies.
And all this time fashion pictures are
being made and fashion articles written,
and whatever styles those pictures and
articles depict will be adopted, no mat
ter how vigorous feminine protest Is
raised or how loud howl OF masculine
derision is emitted. The small boy or
phans in an asylum do not put on blue
Jean jumpers TO catch the eye OF the
small girl orphans. Neither do the
small girl orphans wear gray stuff
gowns and sun bonnets In order to
charm the small boy orphans or to Gre
ate envious admiration in the souls OF
the other small girl orphans. They
both yield to the mandate Of a superior
power. In their case it Is the rule OF
the institution. In the case OF men and
women it is fashion.

There was curious shake in Anna's
voice as she spoke to her sister, though
she tried to keep it steady.

MOB OF STRIKERS.
A SERIOUS LABOR RIOT AT ASH,
LAND, WIS.

ASHLAND, Wis, Aug. Ia crisis
was reached in the lumber showers
strike during the morning. The strik-
ers openly defied the officers Of the city
and county, closing with them in a
hand to hand battle, in which blood
was shed freely. The Shores Lumber
company sent word to Mayor OKeefe
that it would commence loading its
boats with non-union laborers. and
asked for police protection. The mayor
sent Chief of Police Schwarz and some
officers to the docks, where they were
joined by Sheriff O'Brien and deputies.
They took stand on the tramway OF
the do1k. Work had hardly commenced
on the dock when a
Great Mob OF Strikers
swarmed down over the dock and
tramway. The foremost Of them were
forcibly handcuffed hy the officers and
others were arrested who were after
wards rescued from the police by their
fellows. A desperate hand to hand
contest followed. in which revolvera
were fourished and several shots fired.
The officers were nearly lal bruised
with clubs and stones. The advance on
the tramway was finally checked, but
the strikers then swung down under
meath the tramway and made for the
boats, reaching them ahead Of the Off
GERS. There an awful scene of brutal
ity was enacted by the violent mob.
Non-nnion men who where loading the
boats were
Struck Down With Clubs
and terribly beaten as they fed panic
stricken, followed by the strikers.
They were met BY the officers, who pro
tected them from further violence.
Forty Of the ringleaders among the
strikers have been arrested.
Mayor O'Keefe says the president Of
the Lumber Showers union had assured
him that no violence would be commit
ted. He now swears that the city will
protect the non-union labor at any cost.
The mob was composed not only OF
lumber showers, but of coal beavers, ore
punchers and all that class of dock Ia
borers. The men have become so in.
Inundated that it is hardly possible to
get them started at work again. Mayor
O'Keefe is now doing his best to get
then. to return to work, where, he says,
they will be protectected If he has to
raise an army to DO it.

Why was the income tax removed, while
other forms Of national taxes that fall 40
heavily on the poor man were increased?
Where is there any wrong in causing the
man whose income exceeds $500 or 81, 900,
to pay tax, of say two per cent of this ex-
cess, toward the support of the government

and his business. Is it just for family,
who scarcely earn fair living, to pay more
