Sensible Young Women Meet.

To the Editor:
Your entertaining and instructive paragraphs
in THE Evening World must certainly create
for you many friends and admirers. You very
often quote the dongs and sayings Of women.
and it is in this connection that wish to write
you. The General Society OF Mechanics and
Tradesmen. OF IS East Sixteenth street. New
York. has. since 1857. each year graduated q
class OF from thirty to fifty young women In
shorthand and typewriting. This school received

tion. These classes have formed Alumnas.

ings the first Monday. generally. OF each month
At its last meeting. held Wednesday. Sept. H.
p. NJ, at 1875 East Twenty-third street, the fol-
lowing topics were taken up: Recent Experi-
ments In Hypnotism an Aid In Medical Cure. I"
''LincoIn's Friendship for Women and women
as a Factor In Business Life" besides which
there was a musical and literary programme
You will see by our programme that q wide
variety OF topics are discussed. Instead Of gos-
sip and tea drinking the time is occupied in
profitable Intellectual culture-another evidence
OF the advancement OF women. N, y.

STRONG MEN NOT ALWAYS SAFE.

Professional strong men sometimes get
before the public In n ridiculous light.
Even the old-time Samson had a knack
of putting the laugh on himself, as wit
ness his folly in permitting an amateur
female barber to cut his hair.
Sandow. the magnifithewed. allowed
woman fakir to set Ills glorious
strength at naught. and there are others

much ease as II they were fire-crackers,

the presence OF u tiny. mountaineering U
mouse.
Now comes Duncan Ross. the wrestler,
whose biceps are supposed to be strung
with steel. and has his wife hailed be-
fore a police Justice for beatin him.
What is the matter. anyway, with the
women into whose hands our strong
men oonfide their lifting and hitting
power and health? Have they no hearts
that they can thus ruthlessly abuse and
chastise their robust iron bar bending
and chain-burrting helpmates? Fie upon
them. Such women should be asha med
OF themselves for raising their hands
against their husbands.

NOT SAT- FACTORY.

The report comes from China thai
seven of those convicted OF the murder
Of the missionaries have been executed
by decapitatiOn. But at the same time
the story is told that only poor. uDin
fuential tools have suffered death and
that the real promoters OF the atrocities
have been protected
color is given to this rumor by ths
character of the inquiry and the refusal
to allow It to be conducted under the
supervision OF the American and Eng.
lish authorities. II there IL really any
foundation for II. the investigation Is
worse than q farce. and our Government
ought not to rest satisfied until the ex-
act truth In known.

s!onaries with the severest penalties OF
the law. Bat these edicts have as little

Caues and ClOaks,

A smart paletot is noticeable for Its
double Havelock and the origna ar
rangement of an epaulet-llke shoulder
cape. This Is open in front and back
and bordered with five rows of stitching,
narrow soutadle running along each
row Of stitches.
Another form has a loose front with
small standing and turn-down collar of
velvet. Two large buttons are on the
collar and two below the waist. The
Havelock leaves the front entirely free,
reaching only as far as the first side
seam. The back is drawn blouse-like
in natural folds under buttoned waist
belt. This belt can be widened and
three series of buttons are provided for
the purpose. With widened belt the
back Is sacque-like, and over 1t is at
tached long, narrow hood.

Japan's Queer styles.

The common objection among woman
kind to letting their age be known Is
not shared by the ladies of Japan, who
actually display their cycle of years in
the arrangement of their hair. Girls
from nine To fifteen wear their hair In
terlaced with red crepon IN semi-cr
Gle around the head, the forehead being
left free with a curl at each side. From
the age of fifteen TO thirty the hair is
dressed very high on the forehead and
gathered up at the back in the shape OF
a butterfly or fan, with twistings Of sill
Yer cord and perhaps a decoration OF
colored balls. Beyond the milestone OF

a singular hre occurred yesterday In

Grand avenue and cost fifty thousand
dollars. The ballroom was on the

NEW WOMEN AND OLD MEN.

New women have the floor to-day:
Old men are seldom heard.
We bark to what new women say.
We hang on ev'ry word.
New women throng the city streets
And climb the country hills.
With them old men cannot compete
Except in paying bills.
New women have the public eye:
Old men are crowded out.
New womsn's aims are always high.
Whatever they're about
New women tell US how to vote.
Through life they show the way.
But all the cost you'll kindly note
Old men still have to pay.
New women talk and write at length
on all the well-known themes:
They show unwonted force and strength
In philanthrop!c dreams.
Old men are quickly pushed aside
by woman's vim and dash
But in tho end It's not denied
They must supply the cash.
New women do a lot Of good.
We all, OF course. admit.
And doubtless II they could they would
Do plenty more Of it.
New women are reforming all
In almost ev'ry cline.
But II old men were not In call.
Pray. would they have the t!me'

4 Public Need.

To the Editor:
Numerous public toilets on our streets wouid
do away with vast amount OF sunerins ana
greatly increase the general health. 1t seems
almost criminal neglect that a city OF nearly
Two millions OF people and with such grand sew
er.ee facilities as New York should overlook
such a very important fact. In all European
clties YOU ana public toilets for men and women
distributed throughout the cities. and where the
streets are too narrow to permit OF building
them why We could copy the French system
and rent stores for this purpose. as Is done In
Paris In this regard New York stands behind
the civilized world. pocioN'
