THE CIRCUS TODAY.

Politeness should never be lost sight
OF anywhere, and the managers of the
Adam Forepaugh Shows want 1t dis
tinctly understood that they regard
their patrons as their guests and as
such entitled to all the courteous treat
ment that would be extended to Thorn
in private house or place of business.
There must be many hundreds of per
sons whom the public come moro or less
in contact within the ordinary pursuits
Of life that are found to be moro or less
rude. All the employees of these shows,
however, are given no choice in the
matter. The managers require them to
be absolutely polite and at all times
attentive to tho comfort of tho visitors
to the shows.
II you should receive any discourtesy,
therefore, you will confer favor upon
the managers if yon will at once report
tho incivility. Do not think that it is
too much trouble. 1t is duty you owe
not only to yourself, but also to tho
public. BY SO doing you may save
some relative or friend from similar un-
pleasant experiences. II you bring tho
matter to the attention of the proper
authorities, who may always be found
at the main entrance, tho person offend
ing against you will be surely, severely
punished.
Tho Adam Forepaugh Shows have
been touring America for the past thirty
years, and it is the desire of the mana.
gers that they will continue to tour T.
for thirty years more. They do not look
upon this as their last visit to our CITY,
and want their establish mont conduc ted
in such a manner that you will find it
always pleasure to visit these shows
and give them hearty welcome. The
managers know that you will not unless
you arc treated we'll, go that they are
not entirely unselhsh in asking you to
report the iii conduct of any of their
employees.

THE PROPER CAPER.

New tea gowns of rose colored india
silk are trimmed with ecru guipure lace.
Japanese wash silks are in constant
demand. When black satin appears with
a slight corded surface, it is designated
as arabian satin.
Narrow widths Of water silk ribbon
are used for alternate bands, with lace
and jet insertions, forming handsome
dress and cape garnitures.
A velvet ribbon edged with a tiny,
single row Of cut jet spangles makes an
effective and very booming fiat trim
ming for silk or sheer wooden gowns.
Alpaca is this year used for bathing
suits, this fabric, it is claimed, being
in every respect better for bathing in
the surf than serge or the heavier wool
ems that absorb great amount of water
to no purpose.
Very pretty tennis and yachting cos
tunes are made of cream white hop
sacking finished with white silk ma
chine stitching, the short open jacket
showing a blouse of white fayetta striped
with wool lace insertion.
Very wide turn over collars and cuffs
of linen are Worn. They are not univer-
sally becoming by any manner Of means,
but they are made less trying" by the
addition of very fine torchion lace to the
edges of both collar and cuffs.
Covert cloth and shepherds check
fancy suitings, in so inch widths, arc
used by ladies' tailors for walking and
travelling costumes for the present sea
son. Black velvet ribbon is the chosen
garniture for these gowns.-New York

list The circle of which least is known,
though many hear of it, is the so called
Washington club, which is supposed to
be a sort of committee for the local Four
Hundred and to have a mysterious po-
tency in deciding who is and is not in
society. 1t is spoken of with sort of
awe as truly formidable body
Minor Clubs.
So far the clubs of note. But what
shall be said of the scores of organiza-
tions among the women workers in the
departments-theirr reading circles and
musical parties, their combinations for
religious purposes or mutual help, their
little dramatic societies, their talking
groups and even their progressive
euchre clubs? Their name is legion.
There are thousands OF women in the
government service, hundreds more en-
gagged as clerks and typewriters and
scores working as editors, correspond
ents and local reporters. And then
there are the state associations, of which
every state largely represented here has
one, and at most of their meetings the
women are in large majority. In short,
Washington is the paradise of women,
provided only that their positions are
secure. But there is the cause of con-
slant anxiety, for over the head of al
most every woman employee hangs the
threat of dismissal like the ever trem-
bling sword Of Damocles suspended by
a single hair. j. II. BEADLE.

them the Seven Wise Women-organ-
lied the club. After considering a great
variety of names derived from Greek,
Latin and the modern tongues, they
took the first sound of each of the four
relations held by woman-namely, wife.
mother, daughter and sister-and there
from compounded the truly original,
though apparently aboriginal, title of
Wimodaughsis. Tt was a happy conceit.
Having been occasionally compelled to
coin word myself, 1 regard their ac-
ton as quite stroke of genius.
The constitution declares the objects
of the society to be mutual improve
ment, the education of woman in politi-
cal science especially and in almost
everything generally, providing a pub
lie parlOr, reading room, library and
gymnasium, as well as a meeting place
and starting point for ladies visiting
the capital and generally a wOmans
home and social exchange. Rev. Anna
H Shaw was the first president, and the
membership rapidly increased to near
400, but at the annual meeting a few
days ago Mrs. Ruth @. D. Ravens was
elected president and Miss Fanny Ed
wards secretary. The board of directors
is elected by the stockholders, and these,
who may be called contributing mem
y
them are Susan B. Anthony, Mrs. E. C.
Stanton, Miss Clara Barton, Mrs. Clara
B. Colby, Miss Laura NJ Johns of Kan
sas, DR.. Caroline NJ. Winslow and many
others eminent in the arts and profess
sions- The society extended its work
so rapidly that it soon had classes in
nearly all the languages taught, as we'll
as in drawing, the Delsarte method,
sewing and elocutiOn, and it is now
running five classes in French, two in
Spanish and two in German. It has

for which it still owes a considerable
debt, and incidentally it may be added

From Art to Dressmaking.
When the society had covered almost
the entire field of women interests, the
inevitable trouble came-the trouble
which always comes to such societies
and in Washington more than elsewhere.
The changes in the departments are usu-
ally so sudden and unexpected and the
disappointments of place seekers are so
many that there are often hundreds of
women thrown ont of employment.
Their natural resource is to such a So
ciety as this, not so much for money
help-in fact, that is very rare-as
for help in getting places This kind
of work had to be given up entirely sim
