NIGHT COLLEGE IS ONE
OF LATEST DEPARTURES

go by day. School teachers are In
the majority in the college, but there
are lawyers and men in many lines
of business who wish TO get the bene-
ft of a college training. even men in
factories and motormen or engineers
who wish 10 rise. and as a preliminary
seek 20 gain the many rungs In the
ladder which education will give. A
large group of students is composed
of well-to-do married women who live
I'm the neighborhood Of Washington
square. Stuyvesant square or Gram

literature or language courses. There
is a small contingent of japanese in
the night college. including a young
woman. a graduate of the normal
school at NagasaN. japan, who last
year took courses in English philoso-
ply and sociology, and there is a Chin.
csc student who specializes In eco
Monies. The large out-oftown con
tingent is composed mainly of teach
ers and principles from small towns
who have no college degree.

Visiting Cards.

There is much doubt existing as 10
young unmarried women having Wis
iting cards Of their own.
In the most formal social circles a
girl never has a visiting card OF her
own. To do so argues one Of three
things. either that she has adopted a
profession and is in business. has be-
come an old maid or is OF a definitely
independent character Yet there is a
difficulty in defining the age when a
girl may have her own card. One girl
becomes the mature woman while an
other Of the same age may be still the
ingenue at 80.
Circumstances are frequently such
as to decide for a girl; character also
has much to do in the matter. as now
adays young women OF what may be
termed higher positions strike out IN
dependently, writing. painting, pro-
fessional nursing, etc, which entities
them to visiting cards OF their own.
But II the single woman has mother

The Short Woman.

The short woman's petticoats should
match her costume in color.
And so. when practical. should her
shoes
She should wear a pointed toe-cap
in preference to a plain yamp, as IL
will give the appearance Of length TO
a short. stubby foot.
Color. too. has a lot to do with IN
creasing or decreasing ones size.
Gray, white and red increase It; the
dull blacks decrease II.
Lengthwise braiding or trimming
will give height; as also do tiny
lengthwise tucks; thin transparent
collars decrease the size Of the
throat.
Rough-faced goods. also glossy sur
face materials. such as satin. add In
creased size to the figure Flat sur
faced goods. such as cashmeres
voiles. chiffon. lansdownes and soft
silks. certainly decrease size.

AMERICAN SKIRT IN PARIS.
Coat Which Is Worn with It Is Hail
Long and Half Fitted.

There is a certain vogue for what is
called the petit costume d'homme.
in Paris, a fashion that is supposed to
have come from America. The skirt is
short and less voluminous than the
fashionable Paris short skirt. and the
coat is half long and half fitted, with
the suggestion Of being a little too
loose for the figure, and there is a
flower in the lapel The big hat is
worn on the back Of the head and ad-
mirably suits the rather tired SLOUGH
which seems 10 be the fashionable
gait Some Of these suits come in col
ored linen, particularly the blue linen
that workmen's blouses are made Of.
This material should not be trimmed
with white lace; the lace must be
dyed TO match the stun, or passemen-
terie may be used.
Gloves for the afternoon are general
ly Of some soft shade in tan OF gray,
but for the morning. especially if the
costume is white. a loose wrist glove
of rather heavy white kid Is consd-
cred chic. The wrist is lined with
color and IS worn carelessly turned
over bit This color naturally
matches the parasol or the hat or
some accessory Of the toilet.
Children's gowns in their completely
and elaborateness keep pace with the
others about them. Ones attention is
attracted especially with the number
Of colors drawn on for the costumes
Of little girls. amadOu, pale green. even
mauve. being worn by them. They no
longer wear socks after they are out
Of babybood, but white stockings and
white buttoned boots.
There are any amount Of variations
Of the skirt and coat suit. 4 woman

Of the hotels the other morning had

in the fashionable amadOu color Il
was the heavy tussor, as correct and
suitable for tailored costumes as any
cloth. An embroidery OF soutache
about ten inches wide trimmed the
skirt. running up the front in a deep
point, and the short modified kmonO
sleeves were covered by the braiding
The coat fastened with a point and

bust, and the sides sloped away in an

GOTHAM FIREMEN ANSWER
MANY ALARMS YEARLY

A VISITOR to fire headquarters in
n East Sixty-seventh street was
prompted to inquire how the number
Of calls in a year in the busiest fire
houses Of Greater New York com
pared with the number Of calls for
a year in the busiest districts in Lon
don. He was told that there was real
" no comparison possible, as the New
York fremen answered more than
twice as many calls year as the Lon
don firemen.
Il was found later that this was
rather undertaking the case. Truck
IS at 81 Attorney street answered
more calls in the year 1906 than any
other company in Greater New York.
II responded to 1.122 alarms in the
year and did duty at 500 fires.
Engine II at 81 Ludlow street was a
close second with LOOP calls during
the year. Of which only 227 turned out
TO be real fires. In other words, the
men OF these two companies had to
answer an alarm before sitting down
TO breakfast, dinner or supper and
then some.
The figures for London show an
amazing disparity. The Whitechapel

HOING to night college on the part
VI OF New York men and women Is
one Of the latest developments OF this
nocturnal city. which wants night TO
be Just like day. and therefore has its
all-night banks. allnight stores and
restaurants, allnight dentists and bar
Der shops, and practically everything
but an all-night sleep. The lecturer

point to a rather novel sight in Wash
ington square, massive college
building with the windows Of its class
room brilliantly lighted. But this night
college Is not TO be classed with the
other night features Of New York. Its
students are not butterflies so fond OF
pleasure that they have no time to
sleep before II o'clock.
The night college is called the
Washington square division Of the
collegiate division of the New York
University. The majority Of the stu
dents are school teachers and profess
sional men who desire to complete a
college education. but are unable to

In autumn millinery there still is a
tendency to wear hats with rundown
brink. having exceedingly high and
prominent crowns Of velvet and cas-
cading plumage so set as to hide the
crown in front completely. Another
new plumage setting is TO cover the
hat crown totally and increase the
crown dimensions by this means enor-
mously. Velvet poufs, rosettes and
bows will turn out to be the autumn
trimming for straw hats, in dark col
ors. as well as for many Of the sum

shades. We may expect rather

Black tailor-mades, unless Of the

tory as those Of other colors. Brown
is one Of the standbys Of the average
American woman. as It is a shade that
tones in with her hair. Gray and
blue are regarded as all-yearround
colors and consequently are popular
with The economists. while green, pur-

shows conclusively that Il Is a certain
preventive of that dangerous disease.
