Business Women.

1t was a famous saying of Lord
Brougham-though attributed by
him to somebody else unknown-that
it was the whole end of king, lords,
and commons, and of the whole ma
chinery of the State, to bring twelve
good men together in a jury box. In
a similar way it was once a by an
experienced American lawyer that the
most important result of all the great
recent changes in the position OF
women-new laws, new education,
new professions-would be found in
the creation of a race OF business
IN who would look after their
own money matters, instead or
trusting them utterly to men.
It is inevitable that this result
must in some degree follow. A race
of women brought up to read, write
and cipher, to keep books and send
business letters, to study constltu-
tional law and political economy, to
sit on. school committees and charity
boards, to manage tenement houses
and prisons, to practice law and med
icine, and make their own wills, can
not possibly remain in that state OF
pupilage which was once II only
natural condition OF their sex.
Whether it is pretty or otherwise, a
race of business women is upon us:
For observe that it is not needful that
each individual woman should do all
these things in person, or, indeed, any
of them; the most secluded woman
still feels the effect of the general
change, just as the disturbance OF the
central waters of a lake finds its way
at last. though enthusiastically, into
the remotest nook. The social altera-
ton is in the air, in the newspapers,
in the whole habit of life. A promi-
nent philanthropist in a city of a
hundred thousand inhabitants once
called my attention to the fact, and
proved it by comparison of docu-
ments. that whereas. forty years be-
fore. all the leading charitable assoc

pleasing color for summer and is made
up without a vestige Of trimming, ex-
cept rows of carefully executed machine
stitching. The single breasted cutaway
coat shows g line of the vest, which may
be of red vesting or white pique. The
collar and link cuffs, as well as the white
ties, are copied from the modes followed
by men.
Another idea for the simple gown,
without which no wardrobe may be ac-
counted complete, according to the New
York Sun, shows a plain gored skirt of
mixed tweed in tan, with all sorts of IN
expected colors manifesting themselves
in unexpected places. A full bodice of
tartan or of the seeded taffetas with
changeable luster is worn under a but
toned zouave of tweed with a wired
shoulder frill lined with the silk and
edged with lines Of tartan cloth. Atwist
of silk and cord edges the skirt at the
top, and a folded s'stock" collar of silk
finishes the neck. For the more dressy
gowns of silk and wool mixtures corded
silk, plain satin, and all the c~uriously
seeded and fiecked silks, the tiny pat
termed brocades 81 woven in together IS
to have the pattern scarcely defined, are
used in combinations. One gown stands

ELIZABETH, March 90. 1895. This city was
visited by a fire yesterday morning, which
destroyed the machine and blacksmith
shops of Moore Brothers. together with
five dwellings, and most Of their con :
tents. The fire spread SO rapidly
that at one time it was
feared that the entire portion of Pine
street, between Front street and the
water front. would be destroyed. The
total losses reported are about 49,, 600. of
which Moore Bros. sustain $65, 900, fully
covered by insurance. The others were
partially insured. It is thought that the
fire was the work of an incendiary.
