THE AMERICAN WOMAN.
"BAB' TELLS HOW THE ENGLISH
AND FRENCH WOMEN
VIEW HER.
A>D THEN SHOWS THE AMERICAS WOMAS
OF TO-DAT AS SHE IS—‘‘SHE GETS
THEBE”—A MQDERS SOCIETY
PLAY—A PES PORTRAIT OF
WARD M'AL LISTER.
New Tore, November 14.—[Special. 1—
For a long time the English papers have
been writing abont her and finding fault
with her, but now the French papers have
taken her up, and they see nothing in her
that isn't good and charming—by her I
mean the American woman. The English
woman saw the little gaucheries she com
mitted, saw that she was bubbling over
with the youth that comes not only from
scarcity of years, but from purity of air
and a new world, saw that she was differ
ent from her, and, therefore, like the av
erage Pharisee, concluded there could be
nothing good in her.
A FBENCH ESTIMATE OF AMERICAS
WOMEN.
The French woman didn’t say much in
the beginning, but she looked and listened.
After a while she said: “What beautiful
feet and hands these Americans have !”
Then a little while after that she said.
“Ah, ha! these Americans are dressing
better than we do; they are taking the best
of our milliners' creations and the best
that the English tailor gives, and they
look well on the street and in the evening
also.” Then, soon after, the French wo
man sat down and began to talk to the
American one, and she confidentially told
the man she loved this: “Do you know
that these American women have not only
our quickness of wit, but the English abil
ity to keep quiet when they want and they
are the women of the future.” This is
the French woman's decision boiled down
to a few paragraphs, but nevertheless she
keeps on writing pages upon pages about
the American woman. After one of us
has read her articles, we give a look at the
glass and say: “How farsighted these
French women are.
WHAT THE AMERICAN WO MAC! IS.
For ray own part, I don't consider the
American woman the creature of the fu
ture. I regard her as the individual of the
present. She is healthy, wealthy and
wise—enough. We don't want her to
know too much—the nation objects to it.
We like her just as she is, without one
plea in favor of dress reform or physical
culture, and we grow extravagantly proud
of her when we see her contrasted with
other women. She may be a bit like the
lily of the field, toiling not. nor spinning,
but when she is, it is because the Ameri
can man considers it his greatest pleasure
to have a lily in his establishment and to
admire it. When >he does toil she does it
it in about half the time that it would
take the Frenchwowan, and if it is a ques
tion of money making, can do more in one
day than the average English woman
couid in a year. 1 don't believe in her
having to make money. 1 belong to the
association that believes in the cuddling-
up-close-to-a-man-aud-being-taken-care-of,
but my heart does beat a bit quicker when
I think how an American woman can do
it if she wants to. She has a lovely de
termination to “get there”—and she ar
rives on time. It is simply and absolutely
blissfully beautiful. That sounds exag
gerated to a man, and I don't know wheth
er those are adjectives or adverbs, but they
express what I mean and therefore do
their duty in life.
A MODERN SOCIETY PLAY.
There are some things in this world to
be more than thankful for, and one is that
the general American woman doesn't
write plays; exceptionally she does, and
they usually die a saddened sudden death.
The reason I am glad she don’t write a
play is because she doesn't in this way
expose what little ignorance she may have
to the public at large: she lets the men
commit themselves in that way. I saw a
play the other night that had been talked
about for weeks: about which I bothered
and fretted for fear the masculine element
who was going to buy my ticket wouldn't
get me near enough, and after that play I
went home and put my arms around my
fox terrier and thanked the powers above
that I was not the author of that drama.
It was supposed to be a picture of the so
ciety of to-day, and it was really a picture
of society that wouldn’t have been toler
ated by the cowboys. Doctors came into
fashionable drawing rooms and talked
about events happening upstairs, events
that are, of course, necessary, but
WHAT DOCTOR IN DECENT SOCIETY
gives a lecture on obstetrics before a crowd
of young men and young women? Then
all the men wore huge dance cards and
pencils as big as policeman's billies hang
ing on the lower button of their waist
coats. and they referred to these dance
cards with exceeding glee. The cast en
tered somewhat after the manner of the
old nursery rhyme
-Here we eome. two by two.
Dressed in yellow, pink and blue.’’
The women all sat on one side of the stage
and the men on the other, the sheep and
the goats being divided.
Then, when a young man was intro
duced to a young woman I quivered with
delight, for I thought it was going to be
something after this fashion, judging from
the surroundings. “Say. Maine, let me in
troduce my friend. Gawge,” and that
Marne would raise her eyes and say: “He
take in the play was they ought to have
used the lullaby first and the pistol after
ward. That soothing song would hare
knocked over any wronged man and the
pistoi could have been used effectively on
the young woman. Oh, it was a night
WHEN I WAS THANKFUL I WAS A WOMAN.
Felt sorry for anybody? Well. I can't
say I did. Either the S3eing of many
plays has hardened my heart, or I think
that somebody, some censor of social af
fairs ought to be called in to give a glance
over the play before the public are invited
to witness it as an exponent of society
manners. The theatre ought really to be
a school of good manners—that is to say
when the so-called society play is to the
fore, it should picture to the men and wo
men in front just how the very cream of
good breeding looks and behaves.
A PEN PORTRAIT OF WARD M'ALLISTER.
No Mr. McAllister is needed to decide
this:
And, by the by, did you ever see Mr.
McAllister? He is without any exception
one of the vulgarest looking men imagin
able. I stood by him the other afternoon,
and his shoes didn’t look a bit brighter
than his brains have been proven to. TTi«
coat didn’t fit well, and he looked like an
reason of the number of entries being so
large that the judges could not dispose of
one set before another was on. The after
noon. then, was really the time to see the
arena, the box stalls(all of white wood and
ornamented with festoons of golden straw
tied with blue-ribbon, the gentle and beau
tiful beasts within, and to comtemplate
with ease as well as admiration the kings
of the turf, Palo-Alto, Bon-Ton, Mam-
brino Chief. Very many well-known
horses are in this show, and the pretty
creatures look as proud as a prims donna
at the plaudits they call forth. The ugly
beasts, in disposition as in looks, are kept
in the subterranean stalls which honey
comb Madison Square Garden. They were
out in one class Monday, both afternoon
and evening, but while they were under
consideration the jumpers were getting
ready, and nobody paid much attention to
enormous weight and extravagant fetlocks.
The jumpers were the attraction of the
evening and along about 10 o'clock the
twenty-four entries, many of them ridden
by prominent society men, like Foxhall
Keene, started. How they did go, and

The Democratic Club has the most elegant

An attraction at the ultra eccentric sa
lons of the city who is certainly a novelty
is a poet whose inspiration comes at call
in the most crowded parties. He has
outwardly to distinguish himself from the
herd a fall of lank, light hair, an expres
sionless eye and a painfully pale complex
ion. At the house of Mrs. Edmund Rus
sell on Sunday night he, after the hostess,
was the most remarked person present.
Mrs. Russell, it should be premised, is the
high priestess of Deisartism, who lectures
in concert—although that is hardly the
correct expression—with her husband,
and whose, gowns are only less remarkable
in color and texture than are some of the
clever things she says. On one occasion
after inveighing against ugly dress, ugly
bric-a-bac and crude furniture she ad
vised the ladies of the audience to “go
home and smash something ugly” in re
membrance of her. She was non-plussed,
however, on descending from the platform
when a little woman came forward and
said: “Now, Mrs. Russell, you told us
to go home and demolish something
ugly". I would like to begin right here
with that red gown you have on T’ Bnt
to return to our poet. In the course of
the evening when he had dwelt among the
clash of tongues in a Thebiad of his own,
his cne came to him at last. Some one of
the party proposed to him the theme
“Woman.” He sat with a fore-finger
dipped into his opaque brow for the space
of five minutes, then began. Everybody
was so intent on watching for the rhyme
and counting feet in ;order to catch him
tripping, that after he had spun out about
a hundred lines, nobody was quite certain
whether he had delivered poetry or dog
gerel. Fortunately a stenographer was
present and caught the following lines
from'which the gait of his progress may be
measured as by a stop watch:
•* You come—you ofttimes lingering stay.
And who is he would say thee nay*?~
Or bid thee - inward take thy way?
For where thou arc is kope and joy.
For deepest pain r hou art alloy.
Yet there are men who call thee toy!”
There was a sigh of relief from almost
every lip when he had finished, but that
doubtless arose from the pleasure every
one felt at beiug relieved from the strain
of remembering metrical laws.

ever before.
THE NEW ROBE DE NUTT.
The modem fashionable woman's liking
for furs has shown itself in the most
amusing way. When she goes to Tuxedo
or to some country house to stay over
night, her nightgown is of white silk with
a broad white silk collar piped all around
with Russian sable, and the mandarin
sleeves have a finish of the same. Her
white Turkish slippers are lined and out
lined with fur to match, and her one hope
is the house will catch ou fire and that,
without burning down, it will yet necessi
tate her going out into the halls in this
fascinating get-up and with her hair in de
lightful disorder down her back.
a man's opinion of woman.
A man's opinion about a woman is al
ways curious, so I asked one the other day
if a woman in front of me, whom I had
been admiring for an entire blocs, was not
what I call pretty woman.
He said, “No:” and when I asked him
why. he answered me thus:
“She is no? pretty, because her hair is
in disorder, and a man likes a woman’s
hair to look smooth when she is on the
street.
She is not pretty, because there is a line
of black under her eyes to enlarge them,
and a man likes a woman to have a clean
face.
‘•She Is not pretty, because she is con-
fc’ous that she is attracting attention, and
. grn likes a woman to be so lady like on
the street that she passes by unnoticed.
“She is not pretty, because her hat is an
exageration. her hips are padded, and be
cause a man likes a moman to be real and
strongly objects to bizarre headgear.
“She is not pretty, because she doesn't
walk well, she minces one moment and
trots the next, and a man likes to see a
woman a little slow and dignified in her
movements.
“She is not pretty, because her mouth is
too big. and a man -had rather have a wo
man with no mouth at all than one with
one that seems adapted solely for election
eering purposes.
“She is not pretty, because she is bad
form, and if you were a man you would
have seen that at once and would have
passed her by as undesirable.’" So much
for the opinion of a man.
Again I render thanks that I am a wo
man. Bae.

London, November 13.—The trial of

THE PRIDE OF THE NAVY.
A fWMrtli War Toad Wholly d
The United States of America, by its
officials and the employes at the Brook
lyn navy yard, will soon launch the
largest warship ever set afloat. Not the
largest yet begun, bat the largest so tar
completed. Brooklyn is foil of glee and
eaflaon all the Union to rejoice with
her, for this is the most thoroughly
American war vessel ever baflh
Her hull was dnogwad by the bureau
of coostrnctioa, her engines by the
barean of steam engmeewng, and aP her

ordnance by the bureau of ordnance. AD
the metals in her are the product of
Amwfifjui mines, furnaces sod rolling
miTLo, and from the first blow to the
launching all the work was done at the
Brooklyn yard. She is christened the
Maine and dswspd as an armored
cruiser. She was authorised by act of
congress of Aug. 3, 1888, her cost is not
to exceed $2,500,000, and she is to be
ready for active service by Oct 3, 1892.
Her dimensions are 310 feet length be
tween perpendiculars, 57 feet extreme
breadth, 21$ feet draught of water and
6,848 tans dsplacement She will be
run by two vertical triple expansion en
gines, which are to be placed in two
separate water tight compartments and
supply 9,000 horse power, with a pre
mium of $100 for each unit of horse
power attained above 9,000 and a pen
alty of the same for each unit below that,
but in no case is less than 8,000 horse
power to be accepted. Her economy of
fuel is to be such that she can be coiled
for a voyage around the world, and her
machinery and guns to be protected by
steel plates that will resist any shot that
can be fired into them.
Extraordinary care is taken to test ev-!
ery piece of iron and steel used. The \
motors are to be two screws of three!
blades each and fifteen feet in diameter,j
and the total weight of the machinery,
made by the Qnintard iron works, of j
New York, at a cost of $750,000. will be !
about 890 tons. Her speed is to be at the j
rate of 17 knots an hour for 960 knots, or j
15 knots per hour for 1,617 knots, or at a ;
10 knot rate for 4,250 knots. Her anna- j
ment will consist of six 6 inch breech [
loading rifles, four 10 inch breech j
loading rifles, four 6 pounder and two
1 pounder rapid firing guns: four 37
millimeter Hotchkiss revolving cannon
and four Gatling guns, distributed fore
and aft and on the sides in the usual
manner.
The largest guns, the 10- inch rifles,
will be mounted in pairs in two revolv
ing turrets on the well known monitor
principle, and will fire projectiles of 500
pounds each, 250 pounds of powder be
ing required for each charge. The
Marne will also carry two torpedo boats.
Such is a brief description of this ocean
monster of which the first keel plate
was laid Oct. W, 1888, and which will,
the navy officials are confident, be long
the pride of the American navy«nd a
match for anything that floats.
A Home for Ex-Coattetai
The rapid growth in New York city
of societies for social and industrial re
form is attested by the erection every
year of new buddings for their use. The
event of thi3 year in that line will be
the construction of a home for ex-con-
victe on Wes* Sixty-third street, be
tween Tenth and Eleventh avenues.
The growth of the society engaged in
this work and the success it has at
tained are among the most encouraging
evidences of practical reform in dealing
with criminals.

THE PROPOSED HOME.
ized as a society for aiding discharged
convicts to earn an honest living, and
began the work in a gma.ll building on
Water street. From that time till las*
January some 2.400 men had been re-
into idie home, of whom 1,121 had
been furnished with employment else
where. The work grew so rapidly that
the organization twice removed to larger
buildings, and it has now paid $17,000
for three vacant lots on Sixty-third
street, and begun the erection of a build
ing which is to cost $60,000.
The method is simple and practical.
A few manufactures requiring little
room and machinery are carried on, the
ex-convict thus earning something more
than his support, and as fast as possible
the inmates are furnished permanent
employment in places where they may
begin life anew without the stigma which
is such a hindrance to reform as long as
they remain near their former homes.
The society has already raised one-third
of the $60,00C needed for the new build-
ins.
Seems to Be a Good Thing.
A system of sewage much in vogue in
Europe has been adopted by the city of
Worcester, Mass. Large tanks receive
the sewage, and when the work of chem
ical precipitation has been accomplished
the water which remains is so pure that
it is said it might be drunk with safety.
