New Workers Like to Walk

members OF these clubs are trained to
such fine physical condition that these
long arduous walks do not affect them.
For variety sake the routes are
, changed frequently. Many long walks
are taken up both shores of the Hudson
ms far north as Ossining on the east and
Nyack on the west. Along the Palisades
is one OF the favorite routes.
1t should not be presumed that all the
c.ty's able pedestrians are attached to
these walking clubs. That idea would
be erroneous. for there are many pedes-
TRANS in this city who hold aloof from
clubs owing to their desire to walk
when they want to and as long as they
want to. They do not wish TO be bound
by rules. routes or time schedules.
Generally speaking. all. New Workers..
to a greaOr % rfss extent, are pedes-
TRANS. With the numerous car lines
and the innumerable cars. it is difficult
to conceive how the people OF this city
first came to form the habit.
1t Is fact. however. that New York.
ers prefer to walk. In the early morn
ing, II you visit Central Park or prac-
tically any OF the parks in Greater
New York. you will he greatly sur
prfsed at the large number Of pedes-
TRANS you will behold INDUCING In their
favorite pastime and exercise. In Gen.
trail Park you meet them on the Mall
You find them circling the large reser-
voir and you discover them on the East
Drive. But no matter what part of the
park you visit you will find the pedes-
TRANS, who like the exercise and the
fresh air that accompanies it-they
relish both Of them.
| Those who have formed sedentary
habits and those who dislike to arise
early these mornings might be imbuet
with the idea that the pedestrians who
ramble through the park on pleasant
mornings are mostly men. That idea II
erroneous for there. are many womer
there too, and when 1t comes to watkins
the women can almost equal the men ir
speed and endurance. That is the womer
who are sufficiently trained to endure
the strain imposed upon them. Some Of
them make a circuit Of the large reser.
voir In Jig time.
There are In the city at the present
time many persons who indulge In shor
walks before going to business For In

walking IL one Of the first char
i acteristics noticed by visitors to
the city, especially by those who
come from the South.
ut strikes me as peculiar" remarked
Southerner to a New York friend the
other day. that New York people do so
much walking. Up to my arrival in this
city my idea had been that New Workers
were always hustling about. but that the
trolley cars. the elevated and the sub
way were resorted to when they were
convenient
"As soon as I arrived In the city dis
covered that my impression was falla-
cious The conditions were Just the re-
verse. Apparently New Workers. love to
walk and they grasp the opportunity to
!ndtgS In their favorite exercise when
ever they can. 1t il shanks' mare for
them as often as they get the time. The
question Of time seems to he an impor-
tant factor in the habits Of New Workers

would rather walk a mile or two than
take a car II they can spare the time.
THE most peculiar phase Of the mat
'er is that so many transportation lines
are convenient. Why. on almost every
svenue-certainly on all the important
ones--you have surface car lines. On
Fifth avenue and Riverside Drive you
have stage lines. For those who wish to
travel at greater speed you have the
subway and the elevated.
Still with all these conveniences New
Workers. prefer to walk. This Is in d.
rect contrast with the custom OF the
people In the city from which ! hail.
In that city are many car lines. but they
are well patronized. The cars are al
ways crowded be they bound north. east.
south or west There seems to be
horde OF people bound In all directions
al all times.
"A popularity OF the situation is that
people In that city use the cars no mat
ter how long the ride will be. II they
are going three miles or three blocks
they use the cars. Evidently they do
not believe In wasting their energy or
shoe leather. They had rather invest
their money In car rides. ! was AFFLICTED

difficult matter to walk two or three
miles with my friends when ! reached
this city. They seemed not to be both

me so that I was tired out. However

The Southerner's comments ON the
New Workers. fondness for walking are
well founded. Perhaps In no other city
In the United States are the Inhabitants
so Interested In walking.
The habit has developed to such IN
extent In this city that WALKING clubs

NEW YORK, January 23-The
Oriental effect of fashions inspired by
Japan and Turkey, as well as semi
Oriental ideas from Russia and Bull

than was anticipated, even by their
fortunate sponsors. 1t is said, how
ever, that this tendency Is on the

hesitation is but the prelude to new

Smart little separate jackets are
going to be worn this spring, In
strong and vivid colors. The leading
points In these coats will be the lin.

caded silks and satins are being used
for the lining, which is of as much if
not more importance than the outside
of the coat.
A young friend of mine wanted
one of these loose and baggy Jackets
but could find no jacket pattern that
expressed just the idea she had In

liant thought of using the Beau Brum

Her fingers were nimble and clever
and she proceeded to make 1t her

did. The result is shown In Fig.1

While no official dispatches had

the Torreon conference was pro-

Mutiny among Mexican Federal SOL
Hers nea American outposts at Vera
Cruz was a subject of interest In
American official quarters. Several
messages from Gen. Funston report
ed that fighting between the Federals
and mutineers was in progress. The
Mexican Federal commander pre-
viously had warned Gen. Funston that
the m~utineers had threatened to at
tack the American lines.
An element Of humor was injected
into the situation when a r~epresenta.
tive of the revolutionary junta at
Vera Cruz asked Gen. Funston for
to go out and direct the
mutiny. Officials here see danger
for Gen. Huerta should the mutiny
cut off his exit from Mexico City. His
early departure is assumed in official
but If the mutineers triumph

could expect safe conduct to the gulf
