In Chicago
CHICAGO, Nav 24.-Mrs. John oher-

on Prairie avenue. on The Philosophy
of Fashion, incidentally saying things
kind and unkind of Mrs. Paran Stevens
and Ward McAllister, the two last leaders.
and not going out of her way to fiatter
New York society in general.
'A1l American fashion and what we
call position" said Mrs. Sherwood, sis
the outcome of influences and institutions
most interesting to the philosophical in
quirer. Why set or coterie hold sway in
any city from New York to st. Paul is
an unanswerabe conundrum.
The lecturer said there had been q
steady degeneracy both in dignity and in
the seclusion that should enwrap family
life since the days of Mrs. Belmont, Mrs.
Fish and Mrs. Astor. and the chief suf-
ferer from the chronicles of the press had
been Mrs. Paran Stevens. MANY din
ners," she said "much wine, late sup
pers, balls, theater parties, operas and
coaching parties; the very free and un-
trammeled intercourse of the sexes--all
these things have been quoted as the eX-
PLANTATION of certain social com bustion
and vim. Whence comes this sudden
corruption of domestic infelicity, these
Scandals. this terrible ;nalaise to modern
society? In London they attribute it to
the Prince of Wales. In France they call
it lin de seicle. What shall we call it IN
New York? The influence of leaders, or
