The Lake Charles echo. [volume] (Lake Charles, Parish of Calcasieu, La.) 1876-1898, 1894-11-16

There has been a lot Of nonsense talk
ed about Frenchwomen being so much
ahead Of our American women in the
matter Of bicycle riding They may
have started before our society women
did, but America has caught mp ana
now leada
inst imagine g bicycle in Q Newport
ballroom taking part in eotillon, and
its rider was one Of the -Four Hundred,
and no less a person than Mrs. William
r. Trayers.
The scene beggars description. Mrs
John Jacob Astor was leading the CO.
tillan with Count Castellane ct a sur
prise party given by Mrs. Paran Stevens.
One of the figures was flower figure.
Then came Mrs. Trayers, attired, Of
course, in full evening dress and riding
on her bicycle, which was almost bud.
den under dollars and dollars worth Of
flowers caught into bouquets and bon
tonnieres for fayOTs. Ah
Now perhaps they will stop talking
about our American society bicyellsis.
Just give them chance. Hereafter th'v
can set the style, and Paris can follow.
It makes one glad that Mrs. Trayers
is such q skillful rider Suppose IL had
been amy one less accomplished, there
might have been crash, fall aud even
q header on the ballroom floor, for II is
whispered that beauty and fashion IN
their attempts to learn to ride the wheel
have no smarter guardian angels than
an ordinary mortal has, and that many

The custom is not by any means obso-
lete in many Of our large cities Of pro-
hihiting the best women in the land
from ordering a meal in certain restau-
rants after dark, provided they are un-
accompanied by male escort A short
time ago widow of culture and means,
accompanied by a grown daughter, ar
rived in New York city at the Grand
Central depot a few minutes past p.
m. They came down town in Fourth
avenue car as far as Twenty-sixth street
and went into one of our most fashion
able restaurants, but before they had
taken their seats at a table were politely
informed that ''ladies unaccompanied
by gentlemen are not served here after
dark. - This mother was probably more
hurt than offended when she informed
us a few days afterward in our Office
that she knew that such rule existed
many years ago, but supposed New York
had progressed beyond any such dis
crimination
The best women in the state and
throughout the country should inform
themselves Of such customs, and q very
sure way to aid in their abandonment is
for tho better classes Of women who
have husbands, fathers and friends to
accompany them 20 refrain from patron
izing any firm that inficts a similar i'm
dignity upon women who, through the
dispensation Of Providence, are com
pelled 70 travel at times without male
escorts, and who ought to have the
same privilege Of supping Or dining at
the hest restaurants whether their hus.
bands or fathers are with them or not
