SPECTACULAR MOURNING.

Spectacular mourning" says
DR.. Max Feidner, in a Berlin pa
per, ''is an American weakness.
The big black botdered mourning
advertisements in whi>h we indulge
are not to be seen here, but cards
with deep black borders, printed or
engraved, according to the bank
account of the bereaved family, are
sent to the friends who leave cards
or send messages of coincidence.
Much display is made in this way.
Black clothes are bought after a
death in the family, even by the
poorest people, and this makes a
death double blow. Some people
have the courage to wear the
clothes which they have and to
| avoid high colors for a while, but
the great ma jority are afraid that
their neighbors will think them dis
respectful, and good clothes are
sold, given away or dyed. Much
of this spectacular mourning is idle
show and heartless, and it is moth
ing unusual to see women who
would think it a sin against the
dead TO wear anything but black
indulge i'll all kinds of pleasures.
A woman versed in the mourning
usages of this country told me that
there are three distinct degrees in
mourning dress. The initiated can
tell if the woman is broken hearted
and inconsolable,' sadly afflicted
or simply in mourning While
the American may make more dis
play in the way of mourning gar
ments, I have seen no black bor-
dered business cards like we see SO
often in Europe"

Nelson's Tig.it,ng Men.

or the wooden walls OF Eug.uAu.
the great sailing ships In which Ad-
mlral Nelson won his victories, .at,
OF the men who worked them. E.
critic writes: Though beautiful 10
behold and terrible to fight with.
those old mon-of-war were more Of
ten than not abodes Of tyranny and
wretchedncss. The violence OF tho
press gangs, which seized men OF all
ages and occupations. was but q pre-
lude to the oppression that followed.
Decent men were herded indiscriml-
nately with rufflans. the rights OF
free-born Englismen were rudely
snatched from them-for them,
thenceforward. there was no law
save tho will OF the captain and the
dread articles OF war. Shoregoing
leave was nonexistent. the food was
ntrocious and scanty. punishments
were barbarous. and the only thing
served out with any liberality was
rum. on which the men got drunk
and then were flogged for that OF
fence at the gratings next morning.
In Nelson's time the seamen had
few pleasures save the prospect OF d
hot fight and his daily pint OF rum.
But to these must be added the vain
glorious satisfaction he took In his
clothes. When rigged out in his best
he frequently wore rings in his ears
and silver buckles on his low shoes:
his short blue jacket would be deco
rated with gold buttons and colored
ribbons sewn down the seams to give
an additional gayety; his waistcoat
might be red or canary yellow and a
black silk handkerchief would be
knotted loosely round his throat. AS
tho finishing touch his hair would
be hanging in a cue down his back.
The broad collars were first worn as
a protection against the grease and
pomatum used in dressing the pig
tail.
But all these fripperies were dis
carded when the guns were cast loose
from their lashinss and the linstocks
were lighted. 1t was the custom of
the men when going into action to
strip to the waist. They took their
black silk handkerchiefs and bound
them very tightly round their heads
over their ears. so that the roar Of
the guns might not deafen them for
life. 1t was remarked that men go
Ing into action always wore a sullen
frown, however merry they were In
their talk.
Methods followed In that day
were curiously primitive and toll
some. but the results were undoubt-
edly satisfactory, save to the name
less and numberless sailors who met
grim death on the black and blood
stained decks OF In the dark horror
OF the cockpit. That those hardy
and careless men often faced death
or disablement with Jest or a cheer
only renders their unconscious hero
