WOMEN'S NOTIONS. T!:o New Idea cf tire Social Men agerie. New York, Nov. 2#.—-It is getting to be the ambition of every Ne’.v York woman, as it lias long been that of every Parisian dame, to hav e a salon. To catch a desirable assortment of lions, to pare their claws, to induce them to roar gently as auv sucking dove, to knot colored ribbons in their tawny manes aid to lead them about like the sawdust procession at Baniuin’soua more delicate and roses-eented ■scale; this is the new ideal, and social men ageries multiply. The salon proper, that is the political salon, does not exist in New York. Partly from the nature of New York politics, and partly because the woman who could hold one has not yet appeared. In spite of the new interest of women in practical matter’s, even in politics, the woman at whose house statesmen —supposing statesmen abundant in New York —could rendezvous, discuss all sides of a question fairly and without heat, feel as in the old French days that there was an open Parliament with a charmingly int elligent Speaker, whose smites were suffi cient guerdon lor their oratory: a woman at whose house politicians could be encour aged to defend their convictions—or abandon them, has not. yet been evolved. The New Y ora salons are literary, musical, artistic or all three mixed. Polities Is almost an unknown subject in them. None of them as yet is very extensive though several are growing. A New York salon commonly takes the form of a “Sun day evening,” and a woman to have an at tractive gathering every week must be an agreeable hostess, have plenty of tact, Ire above jealousy, and have more than an average share of brains. THE GATHERINGS THAT COME NEAREST to deserving the ambitious term of salon are not the result of lion-hunting. They have grown of their own accord almost without knowledge of the woman who is their centre. They are impromptu, so to speak, and the pleasantest meeting places of the city. Miss Mary L. Booth editor of Harper's Bazar , has a salon of this kind where one sees the people best worth know ing in the city. Kate Sanborn, who has a pretty suite of rooms at the Windsor, is so ■witty and vivacious that witty and viva cous people gather to her by instinct. Mme. Demorest’s receptions are rather more of dress occasions, but are frequented by people who can write and people who speak and }>eople who can appreciate other folks who do these things. Mrs. Martha J. Lamb, of the Magazine, of American History, is a delightful hostess, as people who are fortun ate enough to be her guest know. Mrs. Croly, ‘ r Jennie June,” and her daughter Vida have pleasant, “at homes,” where pleasant people go. Mrs. Laura C. Holloway lives in Brooklyn and her Sunday evenings touch a wider circle of human interest than such gatherings often do. Mi’s. Lillie Dever eux Blake, the woman suffrage writer and speaker, is at home to people with ideas, not all of them, by any means, of the more radical sort. Mrs. Frank Leslie’s evenings are cosmopolitan, and include about as many varieties of people, of the more inter esting sorts, as there are in the world. Ella Wheeler Wilcox has not ent rtained in New York much as yet, but her evenings are expected to be informal and on a more or less original plan. The salon, as I said, is becoming popular, and a great many women trv to hold an imitation of one who can’t, 'this leads to the multiplication of mutual admiration societies, which of ail stupid ways of enter taining are about the mast insufferable. It is for the better success of the cotton and wool salons of this sort that anew code of etiruette for the government of lions ought to be formulated. The lion masculine has an inconvenient way at inopportune moments of sulking and refusing to roar, in sinking contrast to the behavior of the lion feminine, who on an average is more amiable and ready to go through her programme of tricks. THE NEW YORK ASSOCIATION of Collegiate Alumnae held the first of its winter meetings in the library at Columbia College last Saturday afternoon. Collect ively the representatives of the higher edu cation made a nice looking set of girls. There were one hundred or more of them, all in demi-dress, with dainty little bonnets and pretty gloves They were well groomed, as horsey New York likes to put it, fresh and wholesome looking, and very simply and quietly gowned. Not one in two dozen wore any jewelry, and there weren’t cosmet ics enough in the crowd to bring a blush to the cheek of a plaster of paris angel. The results of calisthenic training were evident in the superb carriage of the head, the erect grace of the figure, and the ease w ith which every girl walked. They had mastered the art of locomotion. There wasn’t a suspicion of a swing or a sidelong mince to them, and whether gloved or un gloved they knew just what to do with their hands. They were a fine set of women physically, and if girls who don’t go to school looked half as healthy there would be a splendid next generation. There wasn’t a hint of slang and by the shades of tutti frutti, they wouldn’t have known what to Jo with gum. They talked about philanthropy, social ism and anarchy, and there seemed to be a good deal of sound political and social econ omy stowed away in their heads. A number of thoughtful women who are not “gradu ates’’ meet with them as guests very fre quently . Miss Grace H. Dodge, the School Commissioner, Mrs. Josephine Shaw Lowell, sister-in-law of the poet, a phalanx of women physicians, and one or two women dentists being fairly constant attendants. MRS. YOUNG, OF FALL RIVER, has eriven half a million dollars, well, if not wisely, to build a common schooihouse in that city. The munificence of the gift, in comparison with its object, is explained by the claim that the school, when completed, will be the finest in the world, and that it will be provided with a big telescope and a fine gymnasium. All these things are very gcod, but it seems to the unprejudiced observer that a good enough schooihouse, all things considered, might bo built for a small fraction of that money, the remainder of which might be devoted to more pressing work. Astronomy is a very interesting study, but one that is hardly likely to be earned far enough in a public school to need the use of a big telescope, while a gym nasium. though a great necessity, needn’t cost much. but how much actual suffering there exists in the mill district, of which Fall River is the centre, only those who have investigated it can know. The Legislature of Rhode Island was compelled a t'ew years ago to pass a law compelling married women who habitually work in the shops to stay at home at least three weeks when a child is born. Before that the jxior mothers had often been driven by actual want to re-enter the shop with only a few days’ respite, and the gravest dangers to public health were the natural result. But the kindly meant prohibition is sometimes cvatlod, and, where enforced, often entails as much hardship through need of ready mo ey as it was de signed to prevent. The children too ore put to work so young and kep at it so steadily that they don’t learn much of writing and arithmetic to say noth ng of astronomy. Undoubtedly a $500,000 school is a good thing, but somehow it doesn’t seem to come first. MRS. JAMES G. BLAINE, JR., is acquiring a reputation as one of the most charming women in New York. She lives very quietly, but is seen constantly at the theatres, where her bright face and modest bearing is becoming well known. Mrs. Abbey Sage Ricnardson is a fine-look ing woman in a stately sort of way, and promises to be a prominent figure in the literary and semi-literary circles of the city this winter. A prominent candidate for election as prettiest woman in New York this winter is n Miss Hecksher, who goes everywhere and whom everybody likes. Miss Winslow, the Boston beauty, is fre quently an evidence, and looks beat as she appeared a few evenings since in the Ogden Goeiet box at the Metropolitan Opera, in black lace, with black leather fob setting off her white shoulders and masses of light hair. Mrs. Alice J. Shaw, the pretty whistler, has started a score of imitators, but they can’t begin to equal her trills. Ellen Terry's daughter is very English in her modest retiring way. She hasn't the amount of conversation in her that an American girl has. It is an item in the cost of a wedding now adays to hire “family servants” enough and to costume them properly to make a good showing in the pews reserved for the retain ers who want to see the flower of the family joined in the fashion bonds of matrimonv. E. P. H. PLENTY OF LIBEL SUITS. More Fun in New York Newspaper Offices Than in a Circus. New York, Nov. 26.—There has been a heap of fun in the New York newspaper offices during the past fow days. I say fun, but it was a sort of grim humor, and it may prove very sorrowful to the publishers be fore tho robins nest again. It was not boisterous fun, but every newspaper man in town h.as had a good laugh. The fun consisted in libel suits. Not a publisher on Newspaper row has escaped. It seemed as though the watchful managing editor was off on a holiday and the office boy was ruiming things. The first shock came to tho Mail and Express office. It was iu the form of a badly spelled and hor ribly written letter from an indignant father. A paragraph had crept int 6 the Mail and Express stating that a talented and beautiful young lady who resides not a thousand miles from our City Hall had wed ded a burly negro. Her name was printed in full, and her beauty and accomplish ments were dwelt on to the fullest extent. The newly made husband’s name was given also, and the item closed by saying that an indignant father had driven his daughter from his door forever. It was a revolting story, to be sure, and Its publication annoyed the publisher of the newspaper quite as much as any one else, for he is a high-toned, dignified gentleman, who believes in everything except sensation alism in newspaper writing. A council of the editors was immediately called, and the person who furnished the information was notified by telegraph that if he ever put his foot in the Mail and Express office again he would be met by a strong-armed Celt, who had instructions to hang and quarter him. The matter was turned over to the lawyers of the paper and a meek and humble apology printed. It was hoped that the irate father would take the explanation and the apology in the proper spirit, and would withdraw his suit, but he did not. He instructed his lawyers to proceed without delay. As quickly as the man who furnished the item could communicate with the office he did so. He had made a discovery. It was not his fault that the paper said that the beautiful girl had become the bride of a negro. He produced his original manuscript, and lo! and behold not a word about the husband being a negro was found in it. The newly made husband was described as an illiterate fellow, far beneath his wife in the social scale: He was said to be a prosperous gro cer in a negro settlement in New Jersey. Ah! That was a discovery indeed, then *a close inspection of the copy revealed the fact that it was the telegraph editor who had made the error. He had only glanced at the manuscript hastily and immediately concluded that the groom must be a negro or he would not take his bride to a negro settlement to live. So without more ado the item was captioned in this stately and at tractive way; SHE MARRIED A NEGRO! * A CHARMING AND TALENTED YOUNG GIRL WEDS AN ILLITERATE BLACK MAN’! Here it became necessary for the tele graph editor to explain to the publisher. The interview was painful in the extreme. “Blast the negro anyhow!” he said, as he left the awful presence of the publisher. “I hate negroes! I shall dismiss the colored woman who does my washing at once!” What care was exercised in the office for a day. Every editor and reporter walked on tiptoe as he passed the desk of the unfor tunate telegraph editor. His face was a study and his heart heavy. It was a sad scene. But the night dispelled the gloom, and morning came as radiant as a Boston girl taking her third plate of beans. The air was crisp and the sun shone brightly. Then it was that a clever young reporter was sent to interview a man who had just applied for a divorce. It was a good interview. It was highly entertaining and amusing, but it contained so many misstatements that the husband wrote to the wife that he was not responsible for it. The fair lady threat ened him with a cowhiding, and a big brawny brother came forward and de manded an apology from the husband. He brought husband and wife together, and they fell on each other’s necks and wept. The dove of peace spread its wings and the couple were reunited, the divorce papers torn up, and they agreed to join issues and sue the paper for libel! When the blood fell upon the Mail and Express office, there was weeping and wail ing, gnashing of teeth and tearing of hair. The city editor took a day off and the tele graph editor joined him in his solitude, while the poor reporter went over to the City Hall Park and picked out a bench upon which the sun shines. He is there now. He will winter there. No sadder place could bo found than the Mail and Express editorial rooms. How cautious nil the editors and reporters were. A hundred times each day they walk into the managing editor's room and submitted items for his sanction or disapproval. “In the present state ol' things,” said the telegraph editor, “it won’t do to take any big chances. Now here’s an item that says John Jones, of Norwich, was arrested last night for rushing the growler.” “Tut, tut, fhat won’t do,” was the manag ing editor’s reply. “Well, how shall we put it?” “Just change the name and make it John Smith.” “But it wasn’t John Smith, it was John Jones.” “Oh, yes, of course, but Jones might sue for libel, don’t you know, and Smith would not do it, for he would not know which Smith it was. See? Yes? Oh, of course. We must give the news, but we don’t care to revel in too many libel suits.” At this point the literary editor stuck his head in the door and sn id he bad been re viewing a book on “Prehistoric Man” in Ohio. “Do you suppose John Sherman will sue us if we give Prehistoric Man—?” “Better eliminate tbe word Ohio and in sert Dakota. We haven’t any readers in Dakota! Ob, that’s a good way out it, eh?” And so it went ail day—a gloomy, cheer less day. But joy came with the evening. The Mail and Express was no longer alone in the field of libel suits. The Telegram printed a lot of cuts of nude figures and Anthony Comstock, the conservator of morals, immediately began to protect the public. While the editors of the 7 elearam were discussing the situation the Times printed Swinburne's tragedy, and the American publishers talked seriously of pouncing upon the Times for vitiating the American copyright. On the heels of this came the annonneement in the Sun that Pierre Lori I lard had lost #225,000 at baccarat to Allen Thorndyke Rice. Lorillard denied it all and entered a suit for #50,000 damages. Of course there was a mild circus in the Sun office, and while this was going on Anthony Comstock jumped on tho World for saying that he had struck a small boy and had used vile langnge. Then Fred Gebhard sued the Evening Sun tor 850,000 tor railing him a blackguard. The next day the Herald contained an expose of some mining frauds, and the projectors of the mine jumped on tho Herald with both feet. And so it has been going on. Every newspaper office in town has felt the blow of the aggrieved iu some walk in life. The only ]>aper that I happen to know of that has escaped is the Banner of Zion. But no one knows what a dav mav bring forth. Foster Coates. Jiieeveatol the season, Theatre Friday. J THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29. 1887. CHEAP ADVERTISING. ONE CENTRA WORD.
