REPEPLIC SPECIAL.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL.
Philadelphia, July 3.-The women Of Pit
karin Island In the South Pacific are going
about In coats and vests and other garments
Of male apparel. There are no dressmakers
on the island. and the only ships that
ever stop there are freight carriers. no i'm
pnrtation of gowns or millinery from Paris
or any other part OF the civilized world can
be made.
The officers of the ship John A. Briggs,
which has Just arrived here. tell of their
stop at the island on April q last and how
they were shocked by seeing all the town in
male attire.
The natives are all DESCENDANT OF the
mutineers of tie ship Bounty. They tell
a sad story of how the supply Of feminine
finery had finally given out, and there be-
Ing no department stores in that part Of
the world how they had been obliged TO
put on the clothing OF the men.
Touched by the story toll! and the un-
wouted sight, the officers Of the Briggs ran
sacked their cabins for old dresses. hosiery
and ether articles Of clothing left by the
wives Of former masters Of the ship. They
could find but few garments. but the Pit
cairn Island women accepted them with
many protsstations of gratitude.
There is a fine chance for dreSsmakers In
that part of the world. the officers say.
