CURIOUS INDUSTRIES.
Odd Employment for Skillful Men and
Women.
From the New York Morning Journal.
A few years ago there was hardly a man
dressmaker hi the city of New York or the
whole United States. At the present time
there are scores of them in the metropolis,
and no large city of our country is with
out one or more artists of this description.
We have Redfern ns an exponent of English
ideas ol dress; Lanouette is evolving pretty
French conceptions out of charming mate,
rials; Joumaok is giving a German twist to
modes from Berlin, and Eugene Underhill
os the American Worth, the manipulator
of all styles into some arrangement of his
own. These four men are accomplished
gentlemen. One of them is a college grad
uate, and the last mentioned is not only a
musician, but a fair writer of verses nnd
sketches from nature, conventionalizing
forms for the exquisite embroideries made
in his establishment.
Of the newer industries for men. of a
unique kind,.are the menders for bachelors,
the men who go to tho lodgings of single
gentlemen and keep their wardrobe in re
pair. This is an anti-matrimonial trade, as
it makes single men so comfortable in tlieir
belongings that they do not repine over
gloves and hosiery that need repairs.
Certain trades are considered especially
intended for women, such as dealing in false
hair and cosmetics, and women like to deal
with women in such a business, as it gives
no shock to a woman’s vanity to ask another
of her sex to supply her with those articles,
but it would to ask a man. If a man were
to disguise himself as a woman nnd visit our
well known establishments for cosmetics, he
would be infinitely amused at what he saw.
Women enter these places, plain, middle
aged and unattractive, and leave them
young, lieautiful and fair to behold, in short
they have had a facial make up at the ex
pense of.? 5 or SO. The hands and feet are
also made a study, and women manicures
nnd chiropodists are numerous. This trade
may be said to be lively. We are fast imi
tating the French women, who do not con
sider the toilet perfect. without the aid of
this profession.
Still another unique occupation for women
is to mend dolls, at very good
Mended Here,” is tho sign on a Sixth avenue
establishment of this kind.
For several years hundreds of women,
many of them ladies born and bred, who
have' become impecunious through the exi
gencies of cruel misfortunes, have taken up
the business of buying dress goods and send
ing them C. O. I). to every part of our coun
try for a petty commission. They extend
this trade to every kind of merchandise,and
have garments made up. One lady who has
an office and many assistants, has built up
a large business of this kind in New York.
Circulars are sent out by these commission
merchants far and near, telling what they
will do in this way. Trosseans or wedding
wardrobes are purchased and made perfect
for young ladies in the far South and West,
even to the bridal bouquet, which is sent in
an air-tight box.
Sometimes a breakfast, a lunch or a sup
per all ready to serve is ordered in this way,
and sent to a distant city, and one lady has
become an expert in buying crutches, false
teeth and other odd but essential appliances
for comforts of this kind. A 61,000 or
S!,SOO is not considered a large income for a
woman to make in such an employment.
We have female photographers. Indoed
the most famous of these is one who is
called "The Society Photographer,” and
who makes it a rule never to picture an
actress or other women than those known
in the beau rnonde.
Architecture has been taken up by some
clever women as a profession with success,
and wo have some lady students in law, but
they are few in numlier in comparison with
the number of women studying and prac
ticing medicine. Lady journalists are so
plentiful that every newspaper employs
them, as women have a faculty in writing
on certain topics not enjoyed by men, as
their perceptions are keener and their im
agination greate* than men.
A bright woman has turned her knowl
edge of art to use in guiding ladies through
picture galleries and libraries and to see
collections of objects of art in our city. She
is paid so much per hour for the time she
consumes in this way. This is an especial
privilege to ladies who are strangers in New
York.
Still another bright woman has, perhaps,
conceived tho most unique industry in the
world. She is a person who had everything
wealth can give, nnd with wealth refine
ment nnd culivated tastes.
Becoming impoverished she asked two or
three of her friends to help her start what
she felt would prove to be a profitable trade.
These friends are noble women and con
sented. The lady undertook to arrange the
drawing-rooms of those ladies at stated pe
riods in the most artistic manner for a cer
tain sum. She hired an assistant and went
to each residence in turn, had her maid as
sist her remove all the furniture out of the
drawing room in operation, cleaned thor
oughly, and then placed its adornments in
agreement with nor ideas of grace and
beauty.
These charming artistic arrangements of
furniture of course attracted attention, as
they were all splendid, fashionable man
sions, and people began to talk about it and
make inquirie-. The result is that tho lady
has raised her price and has more than she
cun accomplish in this way. She has. too,
added a branch to her former business. She
purchases decorations for rooms that she
thinks require them, anil this industry will
develop into a decorative industry. Com
petent persons will be hired by her to
arrange charming rooms while she will
hewmm a designer and decorator.
A “MOANING” CAR.
Imaginative Carondelet Poople Devel
op a Sensation.
From the Missouri llepublican.
A haunted car is what tho local passen
gers traveling on the St. Lons, Iron Moun
tain and Southern Railroad are talking
about and discussing just at present. The
car in question is passenger car No. 4tit>, of
fail- apjiearanee, but of some uncertain age,
if the plush seats and some of the other in
terior fixtures be closely or critically rx
! mined. It i ; called by the trainmen an ex
tra, for it. is only hitched to a train when
travel on the local during some part of the
day is heavy. A car becomes nil extra from
age or other circumstances, and from the
tab's told on Ifitl it is sure that ago had in th
ing to do with its getting on the super
•nnuated list, to bo used only in emergen
ce -s.
It items that the passengers who have
“pot onto the haunted racket" nro net the
first parties to ninko the discovery. It has
'eon an open secret with trainmen for some
tifio |ia-i When the car is used in the day
time it; behavior, if behavior it may bo
calhsl, although nothing compared to the
scenes that can Is’ w.tncsnod at night, is -till
>s_'t very pleasant to those of sensitive nerves.
When iii motion it lias the t >ndcney to omit
a low, moaning sound, much like that which
"scape. from a human being whoso body is
mcked with pain. Those who have heard
the moan assert that it is so roil ns to lie
suggestive of some person und rgoing tor
tines. At times the moan is varied from n
low one to aloud one, with an occasional
screech of tin' most blood-curdling kind,
thrown out as if to fairly paralyze the list
'■nor. For a while the moans are hushed in
stillness, only to be again refloated. In
Carondelet, and esixieially among tho wom
en folks
TIIE “MOANING CAB,”
as tbev have got to calling it, is well known.
a nd whenever they ride on tho local or Do
Goto train, they will recognize the car in an
Instant, and under no consideration can they
l>e induce Ito enter or ride in it. The train
men hold the ear’s peculiarities in great
awo, anil it is doubtful whether that car
could be coupled on to a through train
l*>und for Texas or the South They do not
object to running on It during tho daytime,
with short. trips to this city and back to
Carondelet or lieHoto, but the line is drawn
'* ÜblAiUs A Uuuu lmnd was heurd to re
mark not long ago that he would not go on
a long trip with car even if he had a
baggage-car full of “rabbits’ feet” to ac
company him, and a rabbit’s foot is regarded
by railroad men of high or low degree as an
amulet or charm to ward of all evils and
accidents. That they all carry them is a
well-known fact.
The attention of an Iron Mountain off!
cial was called to the car’s peculiar actions
and in order not to work upon his super
stitious nature, the interrogator suggested
that the car’s axles needed greasing. “Man,
alive!” was the exclamatory' response. “She
is swimming in grease, now, and those creak
ing, cackling and screeching noises you and
i hear won t down. People say she is
haunted and I reckon she is. She went
through enough bloody scenes in her time
that I know of to sot her crazy, and I am
sure those noises you hear are not natural.
They are not made By wood and iron and
what the expert calls friction. They have
hunted for friction and greased all the
joints, and all to no purpose. The spirit of
some of her dead are following the car to
have revenge. Tlfcre are some engines that
are unfortunate and there are some cars that
are unfortunate, and this car has had more
than its share of accidents while on the
road. So I don’t wonder in tho least that
tho
SPIRITS YELL. AND GROAN
on this ear by day and appear to mortal
eyes at night when she is on a side, track in
the yards at, Carondelet or DeSoto. Brake
men, switchmen and others in the dead of
the night, when duty called them near that
car, have seen spectral figures twisting the
brakes, pulling the bell cord, slamming tho
doors and windows, reversing tho seats and
getting off and on. just like they' were hu
man, breathing beings instead of shadows.
Yes, lots of people have seen these ghostly
visitors. Ido pot know whether Caronde
let or DeSoto people have seen the ghosts,
but I know they all talk about them. The
ear has been through two train robberies, in
both of which lives were lost, and it was on
this car that a Texas desperado down in the
Lone Star State let his gun fly and killed
three persons. Last year a train was
ditched on the Iron Mountain railroad near
De Soto, and several passengers were
drowned; well, in that car the bodies were
found. She has had her number changed,
but ill-luck hangs to her and now she is a
make-shift.”
Another railroad hand who would be
likely to know something about the car was
approached and the subject mentioned.
“No, you can’t get anything out of me.
The old man is as mad as blazes about
tbo talk already out, and swears if he
hears any more of it somebody around
here will be made a ghost of sure enough.
They don’t bother me much since the
change.”
The third party interviewed proved
rather unmanageable and was very short in
his answers. The burthen of his story was
more in the shape of advice than informa
tion, and was to the effect that people should
mind their own business and let that of
others alone. He denied all knowledge of
the subject.
Meanwhile, the people of Carondelet have
something to talk about, and the story of the
haunted car is given with different varia
tions. according tojthe strength of the listen
er’s nerves.
WOMAN’S FAVORITE TIPPLE.
How the Delicious Ice Cream Soda has
Superseded Pink Lemonade.
From the New York World.
“Strawberry and vanilla mixed, please,
and don’t make it too sweet!”
There is the succulent sound of a syrupy
pour, a gentle fizz and a gurgling gush, a
delicate splash, as a lump of icecream finds
its way from a big metal scoop to the depths
of the crystal glass, another agitato , appets
sfdnato, fvrioxo, top-off fizz, and the fair
“guzzler” of Gotham is served with hor
ice cream soda.
Other people drink ice cream soda else
where, but not as they drink it here in New
York—which is by the hour, by the minute,
by the gallon, by tho liquid ton. From
early morn to dewy eve tb stream of
femininity and the stream of soda pass,
ceaselessly, behind the window shades of the
confectioner’s, where the delicacy is sup
posed to be served in its fizziest and most
fascinating form. At a big desk, near the
door, and lieneath a dangling placard,
which bears the following instructive legend:
“Buy your soda water checks here,” sits a
placid and cold young woman, warbling a
monotonous refrain. “Oneor two? Plain or
cream!” and dealing forth small solferino,
waterproof tickets, which are eagerly
pounced upon by tho thirsting swarm and
hurried away to the marble bar presided
over by the rapid, elusive soda niter clerk.
These clerks are usually girls, and they
manipulate tho ice cream soda with a pleas
ing dexterity born of long and assiduous cul
tivation. They flit noiselessly among the
array of bottles, deftly distinguishing Vichy
from Apollinaris by the sense of “feel,” ex
tract the juice from the slippery and decep
tive lemon in the twinkling of an eye, never
confuse chocolate with cranberry, nor insult
the palate which craveth pineapple by the
offer of sarsaparilla.
They mix and scoop and stir and serve
the pushing, scrambling, insistent mass be
fore them silently, swiftly, neatly, and with
an air of toleration which gives a qualified
pleasure to the recipient. The writer fol
io iveil one of these nymphs f the soda water
fount to a quiet corner, whither she had re
paired to quench her thirst with a glass of
clear, calrf water, and when asked why she
did not take an ica cream soda she responded
briefly with an, amiable “Ugh!” expressive
of nausea, which supplied all conversational
deficiencies. Later, moved to further con
fidence, she placed one round jersey-clad el
bow on the counter, mussed up her bang
with one plump hand and proceeded to dis
course, glad of a brief respite from the eter
nal mixing process.
“I don’t see how they, can drink it! But
then they don’t live in it, as I do.”
“Beon living in it long?” she was asked.
“ ’Bout four years now,” with a giggle
which ended in a groan.
“Oh, yes, but you don’t serve ice cream
soda all the year round, you know."
“Don’t we? Well! 1 should remark that
we did. Why, the lush begins hero before
May 1. and it keeps up hardcr’n harder all
through June, July nnd August. In August
the people tear in here and drink two or
three sodas right down one after’n other.
They thin off through tho fall till winter,
nnd then though we do an irregular busi
ness on the ice cream, we sell the sodn hot
with bouillon, coffee and chocolate. S lems
’s if people have got to drink something in
New York all the time.”
“Thev scorn in a hurry for it to-day.” At
that moment a sharp piking and prodding
match to get to tli" counter took place be
tween a paras >1 and a pair of elbows.
“Ilah! That’s nothing. They always
fight more or less —usually more. Ladies
ain’t very polite in stores, anyway, ladies
ain’t,” with naive conviction. "\\ liy. I’ve
often seen 'em take aim and comedown on

They most always forget to stop at the desk

inconsiderate rabble in the midst, of which

an Infant or two on her way up to the desk,
gralis a chock that was intended for some
body dse and shoulders a path unrtre

sisterhood. Hho secures tho only idle clerk,
over the head* of two or throe other women
who have been waiting ten minutes for
their turn to come around, and having
swallowed her soda water in one gleeful
gulp, she pursues a triumphant course in
blissful indifference to the destruction I
beneath her chariot wheels.

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 10. 1887.
Gotham soda water fiends prefer ginger
beer to the nectar of the gods, hut b ’cause
of the hope of some amusing commentary
from behind the bar.
“Oh. my! I couldn't tell you that, but,”
with a confidential lowering of the voice,
“you mightn’t believe it, but do you know
I've’ got so I can tell ’em all apart—just
what extracts they’ll take, I mean, and I
can set ’em up —excuse me! you know’ what
I mean—almost before they open their
mouths. You see, it’s this way. The school
girls all want strawberry and vanilla mixed,
and the dark ones want coffee or chocolate,
und the blondes, they take pineapple or
lemon, and the old ladies call for sars’p’rillu,
’cause its cooling to the Wood, and tho
girls who come in with fellows
want ‘just vanilla plain’—kind of
innocent and simple—and the young
widows always ask for Vichy, with ‘a touch
of lemon.’ That’s where t-hoy’re smart.
They can drink Vjcliy standing up straight
and looking over the top ol’ the glass. They
don’t have to hang over it and snap for the
ice cream, when it comes up, with one of
those long spoons. Then Vichy don’t get
up your nose and make it red,' and make
your eves water. You’ll have to excuse me
now—l’ll get bounced for loitering. Six'

Anil with a cheerful grin this small, slangy
soda water philosopher skipped back to her
position at the other end of the counter.
LITTLE GIRL AND BIG BEAR.
A Wee Berry Picker Attackod, and
Saved by a Brave Dogr.
A dispatch from Phoenicia, N. Y., to the
New York Herald says; Little Maggie
Curren is five years old, and is as brave as
she is pretty. Maggie lives with her lather
in Mink Hollow, in the Catskill Mountains.
When William Curren left his home this
morning to work tit haying, he told his
daughter she might try and pick some
blackberries close by.
By dinner time Nfaggie had a large din
ner pail half lull of tempting looking fruit,
when she was suddenly startled by sex'iug a
big bear come out from a dense thicket and
come toward her. Maggie said “shoo!’’ a
number of times, but the bear merely
growled. Then she picked up a thick stick
and liit the intruder a crack over the head.
At this point the bear caught hold of her
dress and began dragging her into the
woods.
Tho little girl screamed lustily for help,
and it came speedily in the shape of her
father’s ivatch-dog Carlo. The intelligent
animal seemed to grasp the situation at a
glance, and it attacked the bear in the rear
so as to make it drop the child. Carlo bit
the brute so effectively that it was forced to
let Maggie go, and then the courageous dog
kept fighting Bruin for all he was worth, so
that the child could have a chance to run
home, and she improved it. After she got
there the whole neighborhood turned out,
and the mountain side was thoroughly
scoured. Carlo was found with the blood
running down his sides, and as ho wagged
his tail he seemed to say: “I saved Maggie,
anyway.”
The pursuit of Bruin is still being kept
up, though it is liclieved by all hunters that
it is hiding in a cave. There isn’t money
enough in all tho Catskills to buy Carlo to
night.
The thrilling adventure is the theme of
the countryside, and little Maggie is asked
to tell her story over and over again.
The Stolen Horse Went Home.
From the Poughkeepsie Eagle.
About a year ago a young man named
Fred Patterson, of East Fishkill, was
arrested for stealing the horse of a Mrs.
Neal in Connecticut by a man who said he
was a detective from Massachusetts, and
gave his name as McNamarra. He told
wonderful stories of how he had tracked
Patterson, and Patterson was taken into
Massachusetts as a prisoner, Mr. Charles
Horton, of East Fishkill, believed Patterson
to be innocent, and coining to Poughkeepsie
gave his reasons for so believing. Deputy
Sheriff Downey also came to the conclusion
thut, Patterson was innocent. Then with
others he went to work to defend the pris
oner, and the result was he was declared in
nocent and discharged. Now comes the se
quel. The real thief has been captured and
has confessed, and Mrs Neal’s horse was
found a few days age in the town of Web
ster, Mass. His tail hud been cut off and
banged, his mane had been cut off, and he
was emaciated and utterly broken down.
Tho parties having the animal would not
give him up, notwithstanding other parties
who know the animal before he was stolen
fully identified him and a replevin suit fol
io well. Then came a novel test for a further
identification of the horse. The man’s son
in Webster, Mass., brought the horse to the
town in Connecticut where Mrs. Neal lives,
and the animal was placed in a livery stuldo
and fed. Afterward he was taken and
hitched to a carriage, and the agreement
wasthat the horse was to be allowed to go
whichever way he pleased to sec if he would
go to the place from which he was stolen a
year ugo last April. He went to the barn
and into a certain stall that was to be the
final proof that lie was Mrs. Neal’s horse.
A large crowd of people collected to watch
tho test. After the harness had been placed
on tho horse he was hitched to the carriage,
and, the reins hanging on the dashboard,
with no one in the vehicle, the poor, ema
ciated, homesick, and abused animal, went
straight to the barn, th • doors of which hail
been left open, and entered stall No. 5 with
a neigh and a snort, and inside of him he
probably sang “Home, Sweet Home.” This
settled the question of identification, and
the Massachutts boy went homo to his father
with the story.
