YOUR COAT COLLARS.
A Tailor Can Tell Whether You're ,
Beat or Not.

A Tailor Can Tell Whether You're u
Beat or Not.
From the New York World.
The man who thinks he has the best OF
his tailor had better take off his coat and
examine the tag under the collar, where
with great care the fasllioner of garments
has sewn it. There let him look at the
stitching which binds that innocent-looking
bit of linen to the CLOTH Let him then see
whether the tailor is fool or not
AS surely as bad habits leave their mar
upon the countenance of the wicked, SO the
seal. The honest man. the beat, the slow
payer. the schemer and the dolt are known
by the stitches. BY their marks We shall be
understood, or words to that effect.
The object of this new Sartorial fancy is
to enable knights of the shears to tell at a
glance whether You are good pay not.
It's all in the threads, as it were. Here Is
the key to these ingenious tabs of the tailor.
The Jog stitch is the one regularly used
for good customers, who require good work.
The criss-cross Is significant of slow pay.
The stitch, with dots and daShes, which
looks like the Morse alphabet, tells the in
curing tailor that it's owner is bad risk
The reverse dot stitch shows the good fell
low who wishes his friends to dress WELL
but hates like thunder to pay what they
Will finally owe on his Introduction.
Inc round curves are used to indicate a
mean man, and the tag with convex loops
at each corner is a sure black eye for the
wearer. It's a good scheme altogether, the
tailOrs think.

Cables IN MEXICO,
The Worst Drivers of Public and
Private Carriages on Earth.

Private Carriages on Earth,
From the Mexican Herald.
The sad circumstances which surround
Paymaster Hills death bring to mind the
curious coincidence that within a hundred
yards of the spot where he received his
fatal injuries three men have been knock
ed down and run over by carriages. Reck-
less driving was in each case the cause of
the accident. The whole street from the
Zocalo to the Iron Horse appears, indeed,
to be a regular death trap. not only for
bicyclists. but also pedestrians
The condition of affairs is this, that, al
though there are some of the best riders
en- earth in Mexico City, there are the poor
can exist for a travelled man than to
watch the average Mexican coachman
navigate" his vehicle a dismasted Dutch
lugger, in a gale of wind. surrounded with
iCebergs, is the poetry of motion COM
pared to it. Who does not recall the pic
ture of large-hatted driver with the rib
bons festooned round his ears his legs like
monkeys encircling the starboard and port
lamps, with the hopeless expression Of a
soul going to torment. "yanking' his
horses round a corner? The Mexican coach
man has only one thought. his idea of per-
lection is a carriage with pole long
enough to yoke in an elephant and ter
minated with enlarged addition of a
bishops croZier. and then. with a madden
ing yell, to hit precisely-with his badly
bitted horses no easy task-a corpulent old
gentleman in tina small of the back or
fracture the skull of a gamboling child
Ihere Is only one post that the Mexican
driver can fill to perfection, and that is to
ur1He cheap funeral car, on iron rails.

bicycles can only be used to advantage in
a territory represented by two-thirds Of
this country. In other words, the wheel
can be used in states the population Of
1,OOO,O0O wheels next year this represents
the sale of a bicycle to one out of every
forty-five Of the population. This Is only
for the new crop of wheels and there are
no means of ascertafning the number of
old wheels which will be ridden When
this fact is taken into consideration the
ratio would he reduced considerably. This
ratio includes men. women and children
and barring the infants and others unable
to ride. the ratio would be more apt to be
one rider out Of twenty-five of ridable
population. -
Mr.. Spalding was surprised at the number
Of wheelmen in this city. The smooth and
broad streets, he thought, made a regular
cyclers' paradise, and he did not wonder
that the local wheelmen took advantage
of such inducements for cycling The
weather last Saturday was rather threat
ening. and on Sunday the rain made things
disagreeable. Had the weather been clear
Mr.. Spalding would doubtless have been
much more surprised at the number of
wheels ridden.
The Barred Racers.
In connection with this 1t is well to re-
mark that he is championing the cause of
Cabanne, Titus and Murphy, who were
held up for unfair riding at st, Louis on
announced by the racing board of the
League of American Wheelmen last week
as follows: BY vote Of the racing board,
Messrs. L. D. Cabanne. st. Louis, Mo-;
c. NJ. Murphy. Brooklyn, N. Y, and F. j.
Titus, New York city N Y, have been
placed upon the list of racing men who are
permanently barred from further partici-
patton in league. races. This suspension
dates from September .. 1885, the men hay
ing been permitted to ride under protest,
pending settlement of their case.
No case in the history of the League of
American Wheelmen has created so much
interest, and the result will likely be the
taking away of racing control from this
organization and transferring it to some
other organiza lion, most likely the Ma
tional Board of Trade of Cycle Manufac-
turers. The arbitrary action of the racing
board has rot only incensed Mr.. Spalding,
but almost all other manufacturers having
racing teams on the road. The star cham
Der proceedings of the racing board and the
refusal to grant an open trial are made
the basis of the attack. Mr.. Spalding
claims that the league is incompetent to
handle a case of this kind. and he is push
ing the matter hard in fact, almost too
hard for Chairman Gideon and the other
members of the racing board

1t Was Graphically Illustrated by n
Dish of Apples.
From the New York Times.
Howard is the white-hairad boy who

Metropolitan Steamship Company, bright,
polite youngster, who goes to night
school, and whose reasoning is equal to
many mems.
Mr.. Walker, the veteran executive of the

day and gravely listened.
DO you know, Mr. Walker, my grand
father says that a boy forms all his habits
according to the company ne keeps. If it
is bad company. he forms Dad habits If it
Is good company. he is sound and good"
Yes said Mr.. Walker. thoushtfully, Il
guess grandfather is about right"
We had a dish of apples on the table
when grandfather told me this. and there
was speck on one of them. Grandfather
says: Now. Howard put that dish of ap-
pies in the closet. and don't let anybody
touch them. Next Sunday we will look at
Them"
YES" responded the veteran wonIer
ingy.
Now, Mr.. Walker, what do you suppose?
Why when We took the apples cut rext
Sunday, the apple with the speck on it
was very rotten, and all the other apples
right around it had specks on them, too.
You see, Howard, says ;yranIfa ther how
bad company has hurt the other good ap-
pies. Just so bad company causes bad
habits I'm going to grow DIP with good
company"
Right, my son. and you won't tend tele-

WHEN THEY NEEDED MUSCLE.

which Wa foremost in the exercise was
ever considered 1.-The smartest ship in the
fleet" The upper yardmen were always
the coming men. They had most oppor-
tunities for distinguishing themselves, were
the best known, and were most under the
eye of the authorities. They developed
great muscular power in chest shoulders
and arms. Their lower eXtramities suffer-
ed, and one always knew the men who had
been upper yardmen by their tadpole-like
appearance when they were bathing
But nstha modern steam line-of-hattle

specimens formed a very small minority of

upon the speed with which the upper yards
were crossed and sent down. In harbor

From the indianapolis News
Il haven't much hair on my head" said
Superintendent Mansfield of the Indian
apolis and Nincennes, but what little

this afternoon. Several of us were coming
down the Union tracks as No 20, the fast
train on the Indianapolis division, was
pulling out
AT Delaware street three tramps were
standing. By the time the train reached
that point it was going at lively rate.
Each of the tramps selected a coach, and
as the train rushed by caught the iron rod
That extends under the side of the car,
and swung beneath the train in front of
the trucks Like acrobatS they turned
over the rod and rested their feet on the
brakebeams, and, as the train rolled on,
settled down for a ride A single mis- Ike,
slip of the hand, or the failure to place
their feet on the hrakebeam meant for
them horrible death. l was so frightened
at their recklessness that I fairly lost my

That was common trick" said Frank

sit and observe the steadness by looking
along sights at the horizon. The sensation
of steadiness while seeing the ship rolling
and pitching about under one was a curious
one, and many people who tried it eXclaim-
ed that here at last was an alienation, If
not perfect remedy, for sea sickness. 1t
Is true that the rising and falling motion is
still there, but this can be to great extent
avoided by taking a position somewhere
about midway between the bow and the
stern. But the angular motion of pitching
and rolling is equally great in all parts of
the ship, and can be escaped only by some
such coEtrivance as here considered. A
small cabin kept steady by an apparatus of
this kind could he easily fitted on the English
channel steamers for seats in which many
persons would be glad to pay a high price
a rough day.

Sea Sickness.
From Casscll's Magazine.
A steady platform at sea-most people who

They must not be disappointed, however. in
finding that as yet its advantage is enjoyed
only by search-light projectors. but must
hope, as they may. with reason, that before
long it will be extended to suffering human

with pendulum, or by converting it into a
pendulum by suspending it on a pivot and

the bowl of the mariners compass or to the
swing table commonly used on board yachts
as examples of objects Steadied by this
means. But II he will look along the ton

thus obtained is of the same order as that

BADLY INJURED.

Narrow Escape of a Young Lady
Yesterday.
A frightful looking accident, though
the result was miraculously not serious,
occurred at the corner of Center and
Washington streets yesterday afternoon.
Miss Minnie McNally, a sister-in-law OF
Jas. Mcnamara, was riding thorough
bred horse on South Center. The ami
NAL is racing horse, used to hurdle
jumping and high spirited. He became
frightened and dashed up Center street
The lady was unable to control him but
she kept her head and intended to ride
him out Central avenue and let him
wear himself out.
She reached the corner of Center and
Washington just as George Morse, who
was driving up Washington had
reached the crossing. Her horse tried
to jump over the obstructing buggy and
SO nearly succeeded that only one of his
hind feet caught it. Horse. rider and
buggy tumbled in heap. The lady's
chin struck the ground and was badly
cut. She was apparently dead, but on
being carried home rapidly recovered.
Mr.. Morse's buggy was reduced to
kindling wood.
