ORGANIZE SOCIETY TO REFORM
STYLE OF MEMS CLOTHING
German Social Club Would Substi-
tutc Knicllerbockers for Trousers
and Loose Hanging Blouse for
Coat

Berlin.-A society has been organ
lied in Berlin for the purpose of re-
forming the style of mems garments.
Ii is composed of persons from all
sorts of professions and aims at alb
olishing trousers, substituting knick-
erbockers: while coats and waistcoats
are to give way to a sort of loose
blouse hanging we'll down to the
knees. Linen of all sorts is to be lis
carded.
The newspapers treat the matter
as more OF less absurd, and some of
them challenge the members of the
society themselves to appear in pub
lie in the new garb. The Cologne
Gazette goes deeper and points out
that Germany can have no influence
over the words fashions for mems
clothing 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.
It thinks that the fashion for mems
garments will continue to be set at
London, for "a popular dandy of
London clubdom has more inwluence
in setting the fashions than the
whole of this society of German
scholars, artists and writer's"

GIVEN BACK TO OLD REGIMENT

New Ycrk.-An act showing the
feeling Of regard between the North
and the South took place at the home
of Mrs. G. H. Smith, so West Ninety
fourth street, Manhattan, when Mrs.
Eugene Quinlin of New orleans pre-
sented to Colonel Charles o. Davis
of the Thirteenth regiment an Ameri-
can flag, relic of the Civil war.
Mrs. Quinlin is the daughter of F.
+. Trinchard of New Orleans, who
was in the Alabama light artillery
during the war Francis ]. Quinlan
of Brooklyn was standard bearer of
Company A, Thirteenth regiment,
New York. Before he died, in 1904,
he asked that the silk flag which he
carried in the war be returned to his
regiment.
When Quinlin was discharged for
disability in 1868 he moved to New
Orleans. His son, John F. Quinlin
married Miss Eugenia Trinchard in
1899 The sons death occurred in
1903 and in 1904 Quinlin passed away.
The daughter-in-lay, Mrs. John F..
Quinlin, took possession of the flag.
Recently she got into communication
with Colonel Davis of the Thirteenth
regiment and the meeting took place.

Complaint was made to the police by
white persons in the Pullman.
The negresses protested loudly up
