Berlin Society of Scholars and Artists
Proposes New and Unique Gar
ments-Discard Linens.

Berlin.-A society of seventy per
sons has been organized in Berlin for
the purpose of reforming the style of
mems garments. 1t is composed of
persons from all sorts of professions
and aims at abolishing trousers, sub
stituting knickerbockers; while coat
and waistcoat are to give way to
sort of loose blouse hanging well
down to the knees. Linen of all sorts
is to be discarded
The newspapers treat the matter as
more or less absurd; and some Of
them challenge the members of the
society themselves to appear In pub
lie in the new garb The Cologne Ga
zette goes deeper and points out that
Germany can have no influence over
the worlds fashions for mems cloth
ing because of the predominance of
the military uniform over civilian
clothing here. where even the en-
peror never lays aside his helmet for
silk hat.
1t thinks that the fashion for mems
garments will continue to be set at
London. for "a popular dandy Of Lon
don clubdom has more influence In
setting the fashions than the whole OF
this society of German scholars. art
