MEN WHO LOVE DRESS. BOW THE PASSION GROWS UPON ITS VICTIM INSENSIBLY. Bo mo Notable Examples in New York— Robert Garrett, Berry Wall and Rob ert Hilliard-Frank Lord’s Perpetual Frock Coat Judge Fitch's Full Dross. New York, Nov. 26.—The interest which tnen take in their attire is more rapid and intense than tiiey are usually willing to ad mit. While there are no such possibilities for varieties, picturesqueness and general Intricacy in the clothes of men as there are in the complicated attire of women, the art yf the tailor has developed sufficiently with in the past few years to give a man who makes dress his study plenty of material to loader over. The number of men who make their clothes the most absorbing ob ject of their existence in New York is by jo means small, and some of the wardrobes which club and society men sport would astound a primeval citizen who considered a frock coat, a dross suit and some rough tweed clothes for business about all that a man could desire. When the statement was published that Robert Garrett had ninety pairs of trousers iu his wardrobe, it was re ceived with evidences of disbelief in some quarters, and yet there are numbers of inwi in New York wiio count their trousers by the score, and who are not particularly fop pish at that. The passion for wearing clothes grows on a man insidiously. A friend of mine, who is rather violently disturbed over the matter of his personal appearance, in discussing the matter tho other day, placidly remarked: ROBERT GARRETT ANT) HIS WARDROBE. “Frank R. Stockton once wrote a story that a man who hought a Queen Anne grate Was then lured on from one purchase to another under the spell of the decorative craze until he was obliged to build a Queen Anne cottage to match his belongings. The man who falls a victim to clothes does it a good deal in the same way, and Stockton ought to be able to write a corking good Story about a poor wretch who goes off in a sudden flight of vanity and extravagance and purchases a pair of overgaiters, from which he is led on to boa monumental and stupendous fop. It is when a man commits his first indiscretion in the way of elegan cies of attire th v. his downfall”begins. If you are dressed in rough clothes and wear heavy boots you will look well as long as your attire is in harmony, but the very in stant you buy a pair of overgaiters you ob serve that your trousers look a bit frayed at the bottom. You buy new ones. Then you find that you want to have them ironed to fie in the style. They are ironed. After this the conviction is slowly but surely forced upon you that the shoes are not quite up to the standard of gaiters. You buy new thoes, and patent leather ones, of course, ns there is no use going half way. By this time there is no shadow of doubt that tho coat looks rusty and, after you have bought anew coat and vest, you find that a fancy waistcoat is almost as necessary as food. You buy the waistcoat. Then, after a short struggle, you are obliged to admit that smooth-bosomed shirts are by no means in harmony with the rest of your attire. Hence pique and ribbed fronts, huge cuffs, tower ing collars. After this expensive cravats and, finally, if you are not very careful, a fierce and ungovernable yearning for a sin gle glass. This is the place to draw the line, though it is not always drawn by the well dressed men of New York. Then you want a rose in yqur buttonhole and, finally, you sally forth with the latest beaver hat and the reddest of gloves and feel yourself com pletely dressed. Then the trouble is that, by the time all this is accomplished, you suddenly discover that the overgaiters look a little bit frayed. Then tho boots need ro varnishing and theifs is a wrinkle in tho back of the coat, but, worst of all, the trousers bag a bit at the knees, and it is the unwritten law of swelldom that by bis trousers shall ye know him. From that time on about one-third of your life must tie given up to considerations of dress or you will miss accomplishing what has be come a cherished and overmastering ambi tion My advice to mankind is beware of the first step for fear you become a N JR son If f ~ SQL fe- I " E. BERRY WALL. What has always struck me as being rather curious is the unquestionable fact that in nine cases out of ten the most expensively dressed men are tho least dressed. Take Mr. Garrett ajain, since he seems to be the sensation of the day. I have seen him wear twenty suits a week and yet never look par ticularly showy or striking. His tendencies were toward sack suits, and he never felt absolutely at ease unless he had one on. As ho was pudgy and plump of ligure and lial a fut face, made fatter by a pair of side w hiskers, the sack suit only shortened his stature and made him look less imposing than any other possible style of clothing. A lot of men amused themselves watching Garrett and criticising his apparel about two years ago at Delmonico’s. He actually wore five or six suit of clothes in the course of the day, and they ranged in material from a dark gray to a heavy brown and reddish plaid. The coats were cut precisely alike and they fitted the rotund millionaire perfectly. But at no time did he look any thing more than n well-to-do young grocer or a ruddy cheeked truckman dressed for a Sunday 'outing. Garrett’s collars were t timed over, he wore sturdy English walk ing boots and a low crowned derby hat. There was no doubt that ho had fifty odd sack suits. It is curious how men w ill run into one fashion of apparel. Somebody told Frank Lord twenty years ago that he looked vastly attractive in a frock coat. Ho has never w orn anything else since. But he is one of the best dressed men in New York, for the coat is moulded well to the figure and the sombreuess of the attire is lightened by w hite overgaiters and a white waistcoat which shows above tho -lapels of the coat. He wears also a bright scarf, light gloves anil a big rose to help out the general effect. Another victim to a fixed fashion of attire is Judge Fitch, of the St. Nicholas Club, lie weal's evening dress morning, noon mid night. Winter and summer it is always the same. He is always clad in a clawhammer coat, low-cut waistcoat and light tie. Dur ing very hot weather he is apt to wear a light straw hat, the effect of which with the evening dress is decidedly odd. There was a good reason for the supremacy of Berry AVall among men of fashion, for, despite the fun that is made of him, he is unquestionably a well-dressed man in the fullest sense of the word. It is very seldom that he is betrayed into wearing loud or gaudy clothes, except at race meetings, where it is generally considered that a man is justified in light checks ami horsey clothes. I saw Berry Wall one day at Sleeps head Bay, clad in the coolest looking covering imaginable. He wore loose trousers of very light material, in a small, black and white check pattern. The coat was similar and without lining or pqekets. It was almost as thin as writing paper. Mr. Wall wore a shirt of heavy ribbed material, und the cravat and a very low waistcoat were made of precisely the same stuff. Everything was pure white, including the buttons and bind ing on the w aistcoat. The shoes w-ere of untanned leather, very low and light, and the hose black. Mr. H all wore a light straw hat, and was the picture of comfort and coolness amid a sweltering multitude. He wandered about with the careless air of a man who is at ease, though there were oc casional snoers at tho unusual nature of his attire. I rather suspect that the majority of the men present sincerely envied him. But Mr. AVall is not often led into extrava gances of this sort. He has a great many suits of clothes that are of irreproachably correct pattern and form. And, by the way, Berry AVall is by no means tho doit that the papers are so fond of painting him. He is simply an amiable and rather dissi pated man, with a fondness for clubs, racing and the lighter amusements of the hour, but he is not a bad companion or by any means an unpopular man among men. 808 HILLIARD. Mr. Bob Hilliard, w'ho has wrested the title of king of the dudes from AVall, goes in for elaboration in clothes. He will spend weeks in perfecting various harmonies in his attire, and will then appeal - in what might he called a symphony in one or more cardinal colors. One day everything he wears is either brown or assimilating closely to that shade, and then, again, the color of his scarf, luuidkerchief, gloves, shirt, waist coat, coat and gaiters will be gray, red or any other shade that happens to strike his fertile fancy. It is his originality in these details that has made him king of "the dudes in the face of the less violently assertive Berry AVall. The world seems to run on about the same, however, no matter how a man dresses, but it is worth observing that nobody ever thinks of the attire of Jay Gould and of the only millionaire who has ever shown a violeut leaning to ward foppery has been beaten out of his railroads and telegraph enterprises and generally badgered about until he has nothing left but his attire and what was formerly a colossal fortune. Blakely Hall. A BELLE OF BAD METAL. Vain, Selfish, Heartless, She Goeth Forth Conquering and to Conquer. Here from Harper's Bazar is a descrip tion, written with a scalpel’s point, of a somewhat cruel creature; Men are not individuals to the belle, but merely numerals—number seventeen, or whatever the case may be; as for their boat iDg hearts, their longing souls, she does not trouble herself at all; all that she wants is the offer of their devotion—their scalps to hang at her belt, so to speak, that all the world may see and count. She is by no means a sentimental girl, for she has no emotions unless we call her desire and de termination for conquest an emotion. She does not think of others. There are girls who love physical exercise for itself; they will ride over rough country, they will row against tho tide, tnoy will shoot and play tennis in the torrid zone, they will skate and tobog gan, they will walk before breakfast and swim for the mere love of it, not to show a pretty costume, a neat and shapely foot, a daring spirit of skill But the bolle, as a usual thing, cares for none of these employ ments unless they accentuate her charms, unless they add to her laurels. If shooting and dancing and rowing parties were all composed of the feminine element the belle would care for none of them. She cares nothing for walking without an escort; even talking, that exer cise in which she is supposed to excel, bores her if there are no men to listen. She has a contempt for the feminine intellect; but, surround her with admirers, and she is in her element—she sparkles and flashes if there is any brilliancy in her. There is no trouble she is not willing to take in order to win; she will dance in mid-summer, although she bates it; she will yacht, even at the risk of nausea; she will picnic, although she trem bles before spiders and snakes. She loves the reputation of belle, and if America does not furnish her a wide enough field, she goes to Eurojie or upon the stage. If she is one among a largo family, not content with pos sessing the lion’s share of personal attrac tion, she receives and accepts without a de mur tho best of everything in tho way of adornment. She is expected to make the great mutch of the family, but it is more often tho belle who becomes the old maid than her sister, who is reudy to love, and is not always reaching after a match that shall lie brilliant in everything but love. Tho old belle still believes in her power to fascinate; she cannot resign her kingdom gracefully; conquering hearts has become such a habit with her that she cannot live without the fond delusion that her charms are as fatal as ever.
