JOHN PAUL JONES.

A friend asks us, "Why should
such a fuss be made over the
body of Paul Jones?" The an
swer is, because in some regards
he was the foremost man of his
age; because his career was with
out a parallel, because he was
the father Of the American navy,
and because he won great honor
for himself and for his adopted
country. Notes few Of the steps
up which he mounted to everlast-
ing fame. Born of mental par
entage, no education save how
to read and write at an humble
parish school; sent to sea at
twelve years of age in the rough
est company; what would be
looked for in the career of a child
like that? But see: He was a
mate at seventeen; captain at
twenty; slave-trader, East India
man and Virginia planter before
he reached the age of twenty-six;
naval lieutenant at twenty-eight;
captain at twenty-nine; commo-
dOre at thirty-two; at thirty
three the ocean hero of the Old
World and the New; the most
famous sea victor of his time;
patronized by kings; petted by
duchesses Of royal blood; made a
knight of France; thanked by
Congress, and more than all
these, the trusted friend and
valued associate of Washington,
Franklin, Jefferson, Lafayette,
Hamilton and Morris; at thirty
three selected as special envoy to

difficult and intricate of missions

Oregon has established the
whipping post for ife-beaters.
Certainly wife-beaters deserve
beating of some kind, but as |
read of the first chastisement-
the observing crowd, the barred
back, the skin gradually yelling
out its blood, the groans of the
victim-I wondered if in the ere
alton of SO brutalizing a drama
we were not paying a high price
for the cure. Whether the public
was not being hurt worse than
the back of the man brute. Still
that cannot be, for this is a law
and the Law is all wise, with
out fail. | thought, too, what a
soothing effect this would have
on the lower nature of the man,
and how it would tend to make
him return home to love the wife
who had testified against him.
AS | understand the case, he had
deposited his wages with her,
and because she would not give
them back to him, he beat her
and struck her in the face and
bruised her badly. So far as he
is concerned, / am not wasting
any sympathy, but | am Won
dering how his being beaten and
then turned loose with a lacerat-
ed back will tend to elevate pub
lie morals or increase happy
homes, or even prevent wife
beating.-C. E. S. Wood in Pa

One of the details that Lady Gordon
insists upon is a very high corset, for
which she has her own special pattern.
1t is very straight front and is much
too high to suit the American taste. In
debutante dresses she is said to display
wonderful skill and taste. She always
insists that these gowns must be white
and lined with soft china silk so as to
make no rustic, and they must be very
clinging. On the other hand. when she
is composing gowns for married wom-
en- and widows, especially the latter,
she shows a trace of the world, the
flesh and the devil, which is a part of
her character and from which she, of
course prays to be delivered.
Miss Margaret Angiin. that most
charming actress, showed me how the
models for Lucille (as'Lady Gordon is.
frequently called) were mad9 to walk.
A most extraordinary gait it is. The
body is bent forward and the shoul
ders heave UP and down, actually. as
Miss Anglin said, with the rhythm
of the music AT bal masque given
this year IN this city we were treated
to a sight of an emotional gown.
perhaps the only one that has ever
been seen here. 1t was probably not
bought of Lady Gordon, but it was
sufficiently in her style to entitle it to
be shown at any of her functions. The
gown portrayed mysticism and was
called "The Sorceress.' That ii was
handsome and appropriate goes with
out saying.
The picture of Miss Anglin is one
which was taken of her in an emo
tional gown, the name of which . is
The vale of tears and ii was chosen
b. Miss Anglin for her dress in the
third act of Camille" Rem amber-
ing the play and the exciting emotions
af that third act. one can appreciate
ard understand Miss Anglin's idea,
which is certainly a poetic one.
We have all seen the poster which
portr2ys Miss Anglin in her little
brown dress and hat and thereby
hangs a tale When Miss Angln
called upon Lucille to select n gown
and saw there some of these brown
dresses she was greatly pleased with
them and ordered one for herself. But
Lady Gordon said. with a tilt OF her
eyebrows .'Ah, madame, that dress
is our uniform and | hardly think you
would care for that Miss Anglin in
sisted, however, and finally secured
the gown. This uniform dress is worn
by Lady Gordon and her models and
is as attractive and artistic as thei,
art can make It. Lady Gordons idea
is. of course. to create emotions by
pleasing the eye and appealing to the
senses and her success is certainly
assured. 1t is perhaps extravagant
and q waste of time to devote So rniicI
thought and effort on personal attire
but still there is something pleasing
in the idea that ones raiment should
be becoming and appropriate TO the
occasion. One of the pleasures of life
The San Francisco call., 1905-05-14

is to give pleasure to others, no mat
ter what direction ones efforts may
take. And in the matter of clothes
personal ideas are generally much
more effective than merely technical
and professional assistance.
1t is quite possible for every woman
to form her own ideas of what effect
she may desire to produce and with a
little thought as to her own emotions
she may be able to design something
far superior to the ordinary garb from
the dressmaker. Bestowing a name
upon a gown will often have an effect
in fashioning it. One special effect
that Lady Gordon strives always to
attain is a graceful carriage and a.
soft. gentle appearance, which certain
ly seems to be a great Improvement
over the ordinary heavy and careless
motions OF some women.
The emotional gown has another in
teresting aspect and that is, does the
proper and intended emotion suggest
itself to all beholders alike? Is 1T not
sort of puzzle picture-find the
emotion? But the mere fact that 1T
suggests any emotion at all is GER
tain raison d'etre-and the resultant
emotion may possibly depend upon
the fram of mind or the MOOD of the
spectator. who will perhaps he just
as moved BY IL as If he or shs should
be properly impressed with the exact
emotion which the dress was intended
to convey. The same thing may be
said of music. Certain motifs may be
intended to convey ideas that may not
penetrate the mind of the listener.
His mood may not be for the moment
inA sympathy with the straiiss that
reach him and he may conceive an en-
diffaronf idea from the nrODer
one. but he may enjoy it just as much
as if he had solved the mystery fully.
To what extent emotional gowns will
be adopted remains to be seen. but 1t
is certain that their recent first ap-
pearance has already caused 4 consid-
cradle sensation and we are simply
awaiting Developments.

Campbell calls them) and the upper

1t is row known as the "Piccadilly

After the fulfilling of all these require
ments and after mastering all these
accomplishments, the models are ar
rayed in these beautiful creations of
dressmakers' art. and the gowns are
then appropriately named and are

THERE is nothing new under the
sun, not even the Emotional
gown" Londons latest fad. Al
though ostensibly the invention
of Lady Duff Gordon, who
named it, the gown is but another in
stance Of the revolving cycles of fash
ion, as it made an appearance even
more spectacular than it does now
good deal more than 100 years ago, in
The days Of Marie Antoinette, leader Of
the fashions Of her time. It was one of
her gowns that Horace Walpole. the
eminent author, wit and statesman, de-
scribed as q dress of silver tissue,
trimmed with pink blossoms of olean-
der: pleasantly refreshing 10 the emo
tions."
1t must have been a beautiful crea-
ton and no doubt had a name to cor
respond 10 the emotion il excited, did
the historian but record it. 1t is not
then TO be wondered at that an ar
tistic, emotional woman like Lady Duff
Gordon, a leader in the fashionable
world, should try to produce an effect
in the matter Of dress that should be
new, striking. artistic and luxurious
and the result is the reign of the emo
tional gown" Her creed is that every
lire and fold and the color of ones
dress should portray an emotion. This
may seem to be q refinement too
subtle for every day use, but it has
meaning to the Lady Duff Gordon ana
her kind that at all events they think
they believe in. There is certainly
some basis for il. slight as it may
seem, for We all know that colors have
a significance and meaning of their
own and convey the corresponding
emotion. White. of course. signifies
purity, and black sorrow. or sometimes
conspiracy. Spenser in the "Faerie
Queene" makes white mean faith or
constancy. while blue is hope and yei-
low is charity. So my Lady Duff Cor
don has basis 10 buLd on and has
just begun TO make her deals real.

TIE way of love demands also that

Two things are involved in the pur-
