THE BUSTLE
Whence if Comts Where it QoeFr
Investigations of a Curious
Kew Tork Keporter
la the Domain Ordinarily Forbidden
Man The Wind Bernhardt
and Other Varieties
to
It occurred to a man who is paid lor
writing articles about everybody but him-
self that is to a reporter ol the New York
Evening Sua that the pesky thing which
a young woman has concealed about her
person would be a good subject to inves-
tigate So he went up to Fourteenth
street and dropped into a big dry and
fancy goods store He was told by the
sleek floorwalker that the bustle depart-
ment was down stairs and that it was in
charge of a young lady The reporter
hesitated He began to appreciate the
delicacy of his position To talk about
the mysteries of a woman5 toilet with
his own Bex was one thing but to ap-
proach a woman on the subject was quite
another However he mustered up cour-
age enough to draw near to a counter be-
hind which stood a matteroffact young
woman
What do you wish sir said she
Well madam the fact is you see I
am in search of of I want a little In-
formation about about
Yea sir about what and just a
ehadow of a smile began to dimple around
her mouth The reporter gathered him-
self together and blushed a little just a
little and replied desperately
About bustleB
The young womans smile deepened
into a broad grin as she said
What kind do you wear sir
Excuse me madame I came in to
find out what kind you and the other la-
dies in this big town woreand how many
different stales there were
Oh Well there are more styles of
bustles than the e are herrings in a box
and new styles are coming in at the rate
of three or four every week
By this time a bevy of girls had been
attracted by the conversation and they
began to gather around like butterflies
around a rose making remarks in under-
tones like this
One of them cheeky reporters
Wants to know about bus les The idea
Did vou ever hear of noh a thing
Tell him to ask bis gin
Alter the excitement had died away
ana the girls louod that the reporter was
really a seeker after knowledge they vol-
unteered a good deal of information
Among the bustles which were brought
out for his inspection were the following
Wind Bustle Made of rubber shaped
like a watermelon Meant to be inflittd
before using A small rubber tube leads
into it Has a tendency when in position
t j lift wearer upon her toes When these
are worn life preservers are unnecessary
Bernhardt Bustle Long and lean
Made in one pit ce R aches to the middle
of the thigh Constructed mainly of cot-
ton cloth Not worn much now Cheap
Licgtry Bustle Very popular Folds
together telescope fashions when wearer
sitsSpiral
Spiral Bustle Made of steel wire ar-
ranged in spiral shape Three inches at
its greatest diameter Tapers to a point
at each end The improved spiral bustle
is made of either two or three springs
one above the other No nonsense about
these Indestructible
Brooklyn bridge bustle otherwise
known as the twostory or suspension
bustle A combination of bustles one
suspended from the other reaches aown
to the knees at the bottom is a spring so
that it will give to the movement of the
knees
Ojestory bustle Supports the waist
drapery of the dresssmaller than Langtry
and much the same shaje
Straw bustle Saaped like the npper
hail of a bird cage can be used as a base
bill mask
Coathanger bustle Made from the
pieces oi copper wire sold by the Bowery
fakirs which are used to keep the shoul-
ders of a gentlemans coat in position
very cheap and serviceable popular
among shop girls who have brothers
Envelope Bustle Sold in an envelope
Three spiral tprings shaped like big bo-
logna sausages and each one covered
with sateen Tied together at the top
Very nice say the girls Very queer say
the men
Health Bustle Three spiral springs
one above the other on a crescent shaped
piece of xardboard it might have been
something else anyhow it looked like
cardboard Warranted to shrink only
when sat upon Great snap for the
maker Fifty to GO cents
Elite Bustle Crescent shaped made of
steel reeds A sort of collappslble coge
Not common One dollar
Princess of Wales Cant hold a candle
to the Langtry Impossible to describe
Not popular Sixtynine cents
Haircloth Bustle From threequarters
to a yard in length Ssmi cylindrical in
shape Expensive from 2 up Not
v orn by Grand street girls
Washbuard bustle About ten inches
long and ribbed like a washooard Very
good article for the dealer

Among the other items of Interest
elicited were the facts that the busjie is
one of the most indispensabl JajcU e8 ol
womans apnarel She couicfVRlispense
with a sealskin sacque or an Easter
bonnet but a bustle never Some wo-
men however have an aversion for the
bustle proper and so as a compromise
they have a pad inserted in the dress jnst
jbjsflSW the waiBt In order to impart that
graceful tilting swing to a dress which
adds so much to the appearance of a
woman three reeds are sometimes set
into the dress skirt In the rear Ttwyarg
arranged about ten inches apart find thjjr
girls say they answer the purpo se U
which they are used to perfection
The trigin of the bustle is lost iaspie
dim obscurity of the oast Theresas a
story which needs confirmation that
Cleopatra wore a bustle previous to the
asp episode But it is a fact which cannot
be gainsaid that the Presidents lovely
rt5
hare not kept pace with recent enlighten-
ment call for tnem occasionally
In order to find out if the use of
bustles waa injurious to health the re-
porter called on Dr E H Bemis at 88
Fifth avenue The Doctor said
As the frame of a bustle is almost in-
variably made of Iron or steel I should
say that in general the wearing of bustles
Is injurious to health As the great mass
of women in large cities are engaged in
pursuits which are detrimental to health
and which consequently deplete the
nervous system it will readily be seen
that to have a magnet at the base of the
Spinal column which is constantly
stealing vital force of magnetism must
be injurious Of course to those women
who nave a surplus of nervous energy the
bustle is no injury on the contrary it is
a benefit This depletion extends to the
base of the brain and thence to the eye
sometimes producing paralysis of the
optic nerve
Have you ever had any cases where
injury resulted from the wearing of
bustiee
Yes sir lots of them Highheeled
shoes hairpins and bustles produce more
headaches than the people are aware of
You see upon a weakly person the drain
is continual The bustle becomes charged
with nerve force is taken off at night
and resumed the next morning And so
the process goes on day by day and what
seems at first to be a very slight Injury
becomes in the end almost incalculable

CHILDRESS
The County Seat Question Settled at jLaat
County Notes
Correspondence of the Gazette
Childress Tex Oct 7 After a con-
troversy of six months the county seat
question in this county has been ter-
minated by a new election and the selec-
tion of Childress formerly Henry as the
permanent location The people cling-
ing to their first love demanded that the
name Henry be changed to Childress
whica was agreed to on the part ot the
Fort Worth and Denver company and
now peace and harmony prevaileth with
prospects for a good town in the near
future Several business firms have al-
ready declared their intention of locating
hereThe
The number of large ranches to be sup-
plied from this point makes It an im-
portant trading point for merchants who
have only been waiting for a settlement
of the location of the county seat
One of the necessary evils of which we
are now greatly in need is the newspaper-
man A good live newspaper man wouid
do well here
The population In the county is rapidly
increasing notwithstanding the delay in
the classification of the school lands
Tne past season has demonstrated that
this is a farming country Though our
farmers are not numerous what few we
have boast of good crops on sod land
We have had plenty of rain and during
the past week have been blessed wih a
superabundance causing great rejoicing
ea the part of farmers who are sowing
wheat Childress county promises to be
one of the farming counties of the Pan-
handle

THE COROSEiiS TERDICT
The Blame for the Kouts Accident Fixed
on the Railway Employes
Valparaiso Ind Oct 14 The ver-
dict of Coroner Latherman in the Kouts
disaster is as follows I find the de-
ceased as far as I know to be as follows
Dr William Perry and daughter a family
supposed to be Mills four in number
one unknown man not burned supposed
to be from Dundee 111 and one un-
known man who came to their death by
reason of injuries caused by fast freight
train No 48 of the Chicago and Atlantic
Rillway running into passanger train No
12 at the Slate Ditch watertank
about 12 m Monday October
10 The coroner places the blame
of the accident primarily on
the train dispatcher and the management
for permitting the freight to run so close
on the passenger whose engine was dis-
abled on Dorsey as the engineer for
running at the rate of twentyflve miles
as the evidence showed and not keeping a
closer lookout and also on the manage-
ment the train dispatcher and Conductor
Parks of the express for the latters not
knowing or the management not inform-
ing him that the freight was only from
two to three minutes in his rear
FOKKEST AND HIS MEN
Tho Wizard of the 8addle Stirring Mem-
ories of War Times in Tennessee
Dr Kelley of Nashville delivered a
lecture atMonteagle Tenn last week on
Gederal N B Forrest in whose memory
a monument It is to be hoped will soon
be erected at Memphis Dr Kelly was a
colonel in the Confederate forces and was
presented to Forrest who was a man to
attract attention anywhere He stood
six feet high had a large massive head
projecting forehead calm gentle digni
fltd manner On horseback his presence
was grand He knew a good horse and
could ride one appreciatively The day
before the battle of Shlloh Forrest was
made a colonel Dr Kelly second in
command lieutenantcolonel In G34
they were sometimess euarated In pass-
ing Dr Kelley said he did not believe
Tennessee or the south appreciated the
fine capacity of Forrest
Lee once said in reply to the question
Who has diaplayed the greatest aptitude
for tactics A msn I never saw in
West Tennessee General Forrest
Johnson said that Forrest was bettei
suited to certain difficult places than any
man ia America
A little incident was recounted of For
rest Calling upon a wounded prisoner
at his home he asked for the wounded
man then said to his wife Madame I
turn this prisonor over to you The
womans rapture shone through tearsana
she threw Tier arms around his knees
Forrest was touched The drops fell
upon his hands as he took his chargers
reins from the aides hands and rode
away
Forrests ethical side of character was
not developed His superstitious belief
in Gods power mothers and wifeb
prayers sustained him He rode by Colo-
nel Kelley with the words Are you
praying So ami AfterCblskamauga
Forrest was so aggravated by the failure
to pursue the advantage that he told
Brayg It was an outrage Shortly af-
ter this General Forrest was placed under
General Wheeler of Alabama Forrest
always believed that had the victory of
Fort Donelson been followed up the whole
command of federals could have been
captured So indignant was he that in a
rage he resigned his command to Bragg
but President Davis would not accept It
Two points the lecturer endeovorer to
make clear the effect of Forrests
strength upon military nen the impres-
sion he made upon the world of the power
and proper use of cavalry In modern war-
fare A courier captured crossing his
line had this dispatch Look out
front flink and rear Forrest undoubt-
edly across the river Persistent fertil-
ity of resource was the ground of his
success In the battle of Nashville For
rest had a conspicuous part He was at
HftLrfreesooro The fight was at General
Handings to the Camberland river The
figjii began at the Spence house at 9
oock At 5 oclock they had made
tj 9ir way to the Davidson house Here
pf the report be true of numbers in the
last article In The Century 1300 men
were held at bay lor eight hours Every
individual private of Forrests command
was trained to an unbounded belief in
power to succeed
The last day the fight was on the
Granny White pike It was a stubborn
fight Forrests men were still confront-
ed by overwhelming numbers Here
their endurance came from Forrests in
fluenc
Dr jJKelly had been asked whether
Forj t could have commanded a large
lot lti
In answer he could testify that the
practical suggestions of the natural war
rior were the safeguard of the Confeder-
ate army under Hood Forrest took

doctor or lawyer undergoes in the pro-
fessional schools Millinery indeed has
grown into a profession but one which
when mastered thoroughly pays a
woman better than almost any wage
earning pursuit she can enter
To become a firstclass workwoman re-
quires from six to seven years time Ac-
cording to the figures given me by the
head of the largest establishment in N w
York it is worth from SS to 30 a week
for mediocre to good hands 50 to 75
or even higher figures for trimmers and
designers of exceptional talent
I spent an hour yesterday in a millinery
workroom where some sixty women are
employed and watched the evolutian of
a round hat The raw miterial of a hat
is its frame and this went through the
hands of the chief designer
This is a French molel she said
and altogether too low crowned ano
flatrimmed French fashions jump from
one extreme to another last season hats j
were high this season they must be low
That is Parisian doctrine but in modify-
ing it for American tastes one must
shade off a little more gradually A few
touches with the scissors and manipula-
tions with the Angers gave the inchoate
hat a more jaunty and tiptilted look and
then it went to a miss in her teens with
long yellow braids of hair who sa Bir
self at a window j
I sew wires about the brinsp of hajs
and straw bonnets she told me JJL >
have been here eight months and they lye
just beginning to let me ut
in silk linings snipping some lengths
of brown silk for the purb8e
The hat whose fate I was watchia i went
from her hands to those of spretty
girl somewhat older and with Jarly two
years experience who faced jit oaintilj
with velvet It was then passed to a
milliner proper as the word is used in a
somewhat restricted technical sense who
prepared It for the trimmer The milliner
put a band of pheasants plumage about
the rim and covered the crown with a
glossy plush blending shades of brown
bronze and olive to match the feathers
The milliner was a piquant brunette She
had ueen at work nearly four years and
aspired shortly to become a trimmer
This important personage who keeps
about four milliners busy supplying hex
with material received the hat last of all
mounted it on the ends of her fingers
gazed at it reflectively for a minute and
then proceeded to concoct a bow whlcr
she planted in exactly the right place on
the front and pronounced it done
The little apprentice girl who sews
wires doesnt earn more than 2 or 3 a
eek The older gir1 who can be trust-
ed to cut velvets and plashes for facingp
is paid anywhere from C to 10 The
milliner who is often a woman who
hoped to be a trimmer but never deveL-
oped ability enough for that grade of tmv
profession does nothing but put fie ou
er cover of lace or plush or beadtf uppjf a
bonnet and is paid from 10 to JL4 A
trimmer has to nave inventivlLglfts and
besomething of a designer If she hgs
genius in this line she can name her own
wages JF
Millinery is becoming so muco of a fine
art that it attracts better educated girls
every year It is going to be a profest
sion to which it will pay them to turn
their time and attention in preference to
teaching

HOW TO 2HAKE BONNETS
Intlde In formation Concerning the Work of
Milliners
New York Mail and Express
There are 10000 milliners in New York
and Brooklyn about one bonnetbuilder
to every fifty adult women Ten years
ago an artistic milliner was something of
a rare bird Today it is safe to say the
best New York milliners are hardly ex-
celled in the world The imported bon-
net is still looked upon by society women
as the model of what a bonnet ought to
be but in 3pite of the continuous growth
of wealth and dress expenditure imported
bonnets have appreciably diminished in
number In the past five years
Your bonnet is in the custom house
Mrs Browne it came by La Champagne
feut the steamer was Irate in getting in and
those officials are so tiresome that I dont
expect to see my goods before this time
tomorrow So sorry to disappoint you
Mrs Browne looked vexed as well a
disappointed Isnt that too dreadful
I had my plans all made to start for
Lenox tonight but theres no use going
without that carriage bonnet from Virot
Do send it around the instant it comes
in

At this point in an actual discussion

French milliners little boy who had just
trotted out from the penetralia of the
work rooms came to the rescue of both
parties with the zeal of enfant terrible
