SEPTEMBER NOTES. The Camping Month and Notes About Women. AMY Voiik, Sept. —September is the camping mouth. There are few men who have not enough of the . Bohemian in their make up to epjqy an escape from civiliza tion into the wood.-. but the woman w ho can camp is not .an average member of her sex. The woman Who can be induced to live ill a teat at all, however, usually enjoys it ell the more keenly from the sharp contrast which a bed of hemlock twigs and a diet of fish, broiled on the end of a sharpened stick, offer* to the over-nice conventionalities of modern housekeeping. I was talking with an experienced Adiron- j clacks men alsnit camp outfits the other day. He said he saw no reason why a camp should not have all the conveniences and most of the luxuries of a modem household. A camp with spring beds, hair mattresses, good table linen, silverware and an abund ance of cooking utensils; a camp with three or four French cook meals per diem and a course dinner served with dainty completeness, a camp with daily papers and a telephone seemed to him the acme of comfort. Aghast at such heresy, I asked him why he didn’t demaud an elevated railroad, import a stock exchange and establish a counterpart of the whole mechanism of so ciety he was supposed to be running away from, or, better yet, refrain from pulling up his anchors in the city at all. Then I asked him how he would get his sybaritic outfit into the wilderness. He was neither crushed by ray logic nor withered by my scorn. “In wagons,” he replied, calmly. “Of course the thing can’t be done with such completeness except in the case of a permanent camp, pitched to stay at least a couple ot weeks; but if your ambition is to be perpetually on the move, I don’t want your company iu camp.” “But did you ever see a camp with a tele phone?” “No; but the thing is perfectly feasible, and my ideal camp has a telephone whether the actual one has or not.” My luxurious friend was right in saying that to a permanent camp pitched anywhere near a wagon road any amount of pernici ous comforts can be transported. I have myself seen a sewing machine and a piano in a tent, and oberved a florist's wagon de positing a load of greenhouse darlings to be coaxed to take root and bloom in the door yard fenced in outside. But camping out of this sort is, my philosophic Adirondack friend to the contrary notwithstanding, not camping at all. It is merely living under canvas an everyday life that' is much more tolerable under slate or shingles. A camp may be pitched anywhere. I have known a family who understand the art of relaxation to drive three miles from home and camp in a romantic cow pasture with the best of results. The supply of milk was unfailing. The cow pasture was to be sure, an exceptional one, with a beautiful outlook of river, field and hill. I have myself camped within a leisurely afternoon row from New York City Hall, under the Pali sades, opposite the city, and know few better places. Thousands, of people go further and do not fare worse, as the hanks of the Ad irondack streams, or of Lake Champlain, or lake George, or of the St. Lawrence, or of a hundred other picturesque if less known pxiols of blue water within the next six weeks will testify. A camp tent is seldom made of canvas nowadays. It is too heavy for any but a three months’sojourn Oiled duck is better. Ordinary bed ticking, if set at a sufficient angle, will keep off a long rain. The acme of luxury, especially on a walking and camp ing trip combined, is a tent of India rubber gauze, such as the bicyclist Stevens carried round the world. I have lived some days ip a hut or hemlock boughs that answered all purposes when it did not rain. • It is in eliminating superfluities from necessities in the camping outfit that the test of a woman’s capacity for enjoying the woods comes in. If she cannot content her self with the meagre list outlined below, the chances are she would lie happier on a hotel piazza. A light and simple outfit which assumes that time in the wilderness is too valuable to spend in housekeeping allows to each member of the party necessary toilet articles, a blanket, and writing or sketching materials: also one tin plate, sliding cup, knife, fork and spoon. The pails for boil ing coffee and carrying water, the tin stew ing or frying pan. with its handle riveted on, belong to the party in common. Any multiplication of dishes, or napkins, or table cloths always takes from the flavor of genu ine camp life, and in a camp often moved is Utterly impracticable. Camp dress for a man means flannel shirt and knickerbockers. For a woman it means n loose, short flannel gown, with no whale bones in it, weighing not over a pound and a half; half worn shoes, stout and without much heel, and a soft felt hattbat will stand l ain, which items may lie as picturesque iu color as one chooses to make them. It is a mistake to wear too much clothing, but a jacket, for cool days is tolerated. So equip ix i men and women cannot fail to come nark to civilziation better iu mind and body than when they left it. THE ART OF DRESS CUTTING. How It is Taught to Pupils for a Small Sum. New York, Sep. 3.—The tyranny of pro fessional dressmakers, their misfits, their high prices, have so worn out the patience and exhausted the pui-ses of women at large that the new movement which aims to make every woman her own dressmaker is meet ing with enormous success in England. There are several firms in Loudon, all I be lieve American, who profess to teach dress cutting by means of the chart, or “accord ing to Euclid,” the measurement of the fig ure at certain points indicating that which it should Vie at other points, and so with neck, sleeve, etc. I remember my mother tmving one of these charts of a traveling expositor of their merits some thirty odd years ago in Cincinnati. She never was able to utilize her purchase and ever after labored under the impression that Euclid and the man who sold him had both sold her. Par be it from me to insinuate that the present-day systems have anything in common with the unmanageable sheet of card-board which caused my dear parent so much disappointment and vexation in days gone by; nevertheless, I believe it is con ceded that it is not given to every one to master the art Of dress cutting. But who is to know which mind will prove rebelious against tuition and which will absorb in struction as easily as Mark Twain assures us the otter dispenses “otter of roses f” For tunately, for the instructors in the science of dress cutting by chart, no woman can tell whether it will prove a failure or a suc cess: the consequence is go where one will among these new instructors, one is sure to find a crowd of eager pupils hanging on the mistress’ lips as if sh were an oracle, or intently scanning upon the chart, the net work of lines Which indicate the course a woman’s body ought to take, “according to Euclid.” The promise is made by these teachers that the whole art of dressmaking, including cutting, fitting and draping, shall be conveyed to a pupil for the sum of about fs'jO. Those who acquire proficiency in this necessary trade are said to find no difficulty in procuring lucrative situations, and it is rather interesting to hear, as indicative of the rapid advance of civilization in semi bar borous lands, that dressmakers who cut stylishly and tit elegantly are much in de mand in New Zealand and South Africa. Millinery also is uow taught in theNeschools and the old delusion has been dispelled which led one to believe that to be üble to make a bonnet, was to possess a power divinely given, on the same principle that |>oets are ’“>rn, not made. To make a bonnet you must first do so and then so; and particu larly must you avoid that and also this. ■ pti must master the art of concealing art, which in this case consists in putting in the necessary stitches, all of whicn must lie sod 'hourly concealed. To line your full-faced j*>iinet you out your velvet on tbs cross; to line your smooth-frotited brim your velvet on the .-t rnight. This in the algebraic lav*concerning bonnets; but even after you have learned all this and able to hide your stitches every one, and to cut your velvet on the straight or on the cross strictly as required by tho guide, still there reniaius an untouchable and indefinable power —a faculty of summoning prettiuess into a bows loop, or of indicating the true pose of a culled flower, which makes all the differ ence between “a love of a bonnet” and its antithesis. Olive Logan. SHOT BY A REJECTED LOVER Mabel Harton’s Narrow Escape from a Tragic Death. A dispatch from Weaverton, Pa., to the New York Sun gives the following account of a remarkable shooting ease near that place; “Band Knox Snyder, a young Englishman, attempted to murder Miss Mabel Harton in the jiarlor of the handsome residence of her father, Janies Harton, near this place, Sunday evening. Ho had been her affianced lover, and she had just told him that she could no longer receive his at tentions, when he drew a revolver and fired two shots at her. one taking effect in her left ear. Their meeting and the causes which led to the shooting are told by Miss Harton as follows; “Owing to ill-health my father was ad vised two years ago to take a trip across the ocean, and together we sailed for Europe, where almost a year was spent. In England we became acquainted with an Englishman who gave his uame as Baird Knox Hnyder. He was a guest at the hotel w here we w ere stopping. He appeared to be a man of means, and, seeing that my father was an invalid, took a deep interest in us. He was kind and courteous, and spent much of his time with my father, who was rapidly growing weaker. Mr. Hnyder said that he had never been in America, but was making arrangements for a trip across the ocean, with the view of making America a per manent place of residence, and that it would be a great favor if he could accompany us on our return home. We gladly acquiesced in this, and said we would give him ample notice of our departure so that he could join us. Several months later, during which there was but little improvement in my father’s condition, his attending physician said it was useless to remain any longer; that his patient was beyond any hope of re covery: that he could get just as good medi cal treatment at home, and that the trip across the ocean might be beneficial. We at once decided to return, and in two weeks, w ith Mr. Snyder, we sailed for New York. His genial disposition and kindly attention to my father made an impression that left no doubt that it would end in a love affair. The third day of our voyage he approached my father and asked his consent to our mar riage. It was a suiprise, but not wholly unexpected, and my father expressed him self as satisfied, but said that the matter rested entirely with me. There was so much tenderness and apparent sincerity in his proposal that I consented, but on account of my father’s feeble condition I refused to set a time for our nuptials. My mother's death having occurred some years ago, my father was very much worried about my future in the event of his death, but the turn affairs had taken on the voyage seemed to enliven him, and, strange to say, a marked im provement took place. The trip to New- York was so enjoyable that, at the request of my father, I urged Mr. Snyder to ac company us to our home here, w r here we would be pleased to have him remain until he decided where to locate. The offer was accepted, and, after a stay of five weeks, he went to Pittsburg, where'he decided to re main. The .most affectionate letters were exchanged between us, aip,d our wedding was set down to take plao p the latter part of September. “After Mr. Snyder’s departure father talked about our approaching nuptials, and as I was the sole heir to his estate, which was considerable, he suggested, very wisely, that, ere it would be too late, it would be well, as Mr. Snyder was a perfect stranger, to inquire into his business in Pittsburg. My father, therefore, decided to go himself, having much improved, and he started forthwith to Fittsburg, where he remained about four days, unknown to Snyder. He learned, however, to his utter astonishment, that Snyder was looked upon as a profes sional gambler and confidence man, and that he was a frequenter of the worst dens in that city. To remove all doubt, my father employed a private detective, who shadowed Snyder and discovered that he was traveling under an assumed name, and that all the rumors about Snyder’s character were true. My father returned home much depressed and disappointed. He soon com municated the result of his mission to me. I was deeply affected, but at once resolved to break off the engagement, and wrote Snyder a letter saying that obstacles over which I bad no control had arisen, and that a union between us was now impossible. The next mail brought a letter from Snyder containing a peremptory demand for his ac cusers’ names, but I sent no reply.” Sunday evening Snyder came to town and appeared at the Harton mansion, but Mr. Harton refused to admit him. Snyder re fused to go away until he was heard, and finally succeeded m gaining admission, with the understanding that the interview was to be the last, and that he would discon tinue further attentions to Mabel. The young couple met in the parlor, while Maiicl's father sat in an adjoining room. Snyder demanded to know who his accusers were, that he might promptly disprove wliat he claimed to he base slanders. Mabel said she had the most convincing proof of the truth regarding his character, and that it was useless to attempt to deny it. Snyder grew violent and assumed a threatening at titude, declaring that unless she revealed the names of his accusers they would both die together. He drew from bis coat pocket a revolver and fired two shots in quick suc cession, one of which entered her left ear and embedded itself in the jam of the door. With a piercing shriek she fell to the floor. Her father rushed into the room and, in his feeble condition, grappled with Snyder, but the young Englishman violently flung him to the floor and then hastily left the house, exclaiming; ••You will never be the wife of another, and the man who has vilified me will meet the same fate.” In a few minutes Mabel recovered con sciousness, and arose with the blood oozing from her wound, which is not considered dangerous. Forgetting herself she directed her attention to her father, who is so com pletely prostrated by the shock that it may result fatally. Miss Harton is only 30 years of age, and is an amiable and accomplished young lady. She says she saw Hnyder point the revolver at her,' but was powerless to move or give an alarm before tne shots were fired. She thinks had she attempted to leave the room ho would have shot her dead. Snyder has not been heard from since. Miss Harton is jicwitive that when he saw that in the event of her father’s death, which was then rapidly approaching, she would come into poMewion of all bis prop erty, he arranged his plans to share its en joyment, and that it was her wealth and not her happiness he was so anxious about. Hnyder is about 38 years of age, of prepos sessing appearance, and higfily educated. Nothing further is known about him, but it is certain that bis true character was re vealed at Pittsburg. Ae 001. Ingersoll Gets Older he Grows More Serious. lYom the Botttn Herald. Another well-known figure that sauntered up to Mr. Mackay’s table the other evening and remained there for a moment or two was that of Col. Robert G. Tngersoll, whoso face and form are familiar to at least nine teuths of the metropolitan populace. As he walks along the street eight out of every ' ten people turn around and stare after him, j and tho only reason why the other two do not follow the same course lies in tho fact that they are so well acquainted with Jnger ! soli's presence as uot to feel any further i curiosity about him. lugersoll has changed I remarkably within the past year. At that distance lack he had sueoeoned in reducing , himself until frotn a noticeably fleshy man I lie bad come down to the orduiany portly | iiroportions. The theory was given out THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY, SEPTEMBER .1, 1887. that he had brought about the change by confining himself exclusively to a meat diet—in other words, that Col. lugersoll had cut off from his list of edibles all vege table matter of every kind. Tile cure cer tainly does not seem to have been at all per manent. The great heretic orator is fatter than he ever was before in his life, and moreover, he has grown rapidly old. As he walks from place to place liis shoulders stoop forward, and his clothes hang upon him ungracefully, and as though they had been made for some other man. lugersoll, with all his superabundance of tissue, used to be a rather natty and elegant being. Now he looks more or less slouehy and care less, and he has also grown serious in his manner. In former days his face iieamed continually with a smile of broad and ex pansive proportions. Now he goes along, ■ with bis hands folded behind him, his eyes fixed upon the pavement and an expression of deep and solemn meditation upon bis countenance. He brightens up, however, when he meet* anybody he knows, and the old look of geniality comes back into his face. „ - They do say that after lugersoll had his severe illuess’last winter he has uot been the same man iu the bright and airy carelessness of his daily life. Ido not mean by this that there has been any alteration in bis views of the hereafter. It is merely that his man ner has changed and that he has grown to take a more solemn and less light view of tilings. He was a pretty sick man during that illuess of his, and a good many of his friends thought he would never get well enough to resume the practice of his pro fession. He is, however, busily engaged in his law offices, and when the fall term of court opens he will be one of the busiest employed attorneys in New York. Inger soll’s practice is enormous and probably nets him a larger income than is commanded by any other lawyer in New York, barring Roscoe Conkling, who they say is taking close to £200,000 a year in fees. liigersoll is the attorney for Mackay, Stokes, and that clique of operators in telegraph companies, and his income from that source alone is large enough to enable him to live in the most expensive and gorgeous style- Inger soll himself is not a great spendthrift, but what he lacks in this direction his daughters make up. It is said iu New York that they “blow in” very large sums annually in the ways which women most delight to follow, and the big dry goods stores profit to a very large extent from the lugersoll family, year in and year out. The Ingersolls occupy a handsome mansion on Fifth avenue when they are in town, The members of the family, I believe, are away just at present at someone of the summer resorts, but the head of the home, so to speak, prefers to re main in New York and apply himself to his law cases. The Summer Resort Hat. New York, Sept. 3. —I think a word must be said in protest against the un utterably ugly and vulgar aspect of many hats affected by women at the summer resorts this season. We have become hardened to a great extent to the slip shod dowdiuess and flabbiness of modern tennis costumes, and there may possibly be some good reason why tennis players should adopt a slovenly and unbecoming attire. But a broad-brimmed soft felt hat without any trimming whatever and perched rak ishly upon feminine heads, although the rest of the dress may be and probably is in excellent taste, is absolutely devoid of ex cuse. These hats are at once hideous and unrefined, and giVe any woman w£o ivdars them a fast, common appearance. There are any number of women who seem to think that the country during summer ad mits of every kind of license in matters of the toilet, and that there is no better Way of showing one’s renunciation of town forms and ceremonies than by a reckless display of idiocy and coarseness. Broad, soft felt hate are, it is true, worn in Paris this season and at the foreign watering places. But a French woman, no matter what station in life she might occupy, would have sufficient good sense and taste to shun headgear so wholly unadorned as is that worn by many Americans. The French hats of this style are wreathed in tulle and are ornamented with long delicately tinted scarfs that are knotted about the throat. A hat of this kind is both useful and picturesque, but should be rigorously avoided by every woman who has not youth and grace at all events, if not beauty. Yet, unfortunately, it is precisely the fat . the aged, the decrepit, the bewigged and the gawky people who affect such startling monstroeities of attire as untrimmed crush hats. The sailor hat is certainly outrageously misappropriated, but this last invasion into the domain of the beautiful is even worse. Clara Lanza. He Got Advice. From the Griffin {(fa ) Sun. A gentlemen from tbe country bailed Col. T. W. Thurman, a well known Griffin attorney, on the streets yesterday, and on coming up with him, said: “Colonel, I want a little legal advice, which I am not able to pay for, and which I hope you will give me.” “Very well,” said the Colonel, “I am always willing togiveadvice free, especially mi the street, and to my friends. What is it you want to know I” “I want to know how I can get out of working the roads,” said the gentleman. “Let me tell you, my friend,” said the Colonel, “about twenty-odd shears ago the Yankees shot off one of my legs, and I’ve never had to work the roads since. The best way to get out of road duty is for you to go aiid have one of your legs cut off.” The four children of Dr. W.
