COSTUMES AND CUSTOMS. ‘Fhe Growth of Commen Seuse in Fashion. ‘HIGH HEAD-GEAR TO THE AX&—SOCIAL SEGREGATION —THE PROBLEM OP THR MALE ESCORT—THE PARIS COSTUME AND THE ENGLISH WALKING DRES— PREMOXITIONS OF SPRING. FromourowmCorrespondent. si New Yore. Jan. 29, 1887. Newspapers may say what they please, but fashion does not have it all ts own way now-a- days, by agreat deal. The convenience of others must be considered, or there is protest and flat re- velilon. What chance did any one stand at the theaters or elsewhere in the days of the towering head dresses? So high were they that the roofs of the Sedan chairs had to be taken off to allow the structuze to come through. Now, there 1s almost Social revolution because the hats and bonnets are three inches higher than ordinary. ‘The pen- duium always swings to the other side, and a re- aetionary movement has set in which looks to the removal of all impediments in the way of bonnets and hats at theaters and in public assembiles. Men remove their hats, it is sald; why should not women? In a public gathering, where every one has paid equally, every one has equal rights, and 1f men are to be deprived of those rights, out of some tmaginary need of concession to @ social idea, they will cease to invite women to the theater; they will cease to go to theaters or pub- ite places that women frequent; they will sepa- Fate themselves still more from the social life of women. This is What the growlers say and they are quite capabie of carrying ft out. In fact, they act on this principle now. Matinees, which occur once a Week, are crowded with women, no men visible. Evening performances every day in the Week show an average of five men to one woman, the afternoon reception has taken the place the evening party principally, because it was apassible for ladies to Hud male escorts, he Lyceuin theater has made an herole attempt 'S, not only to take off their bonnets Dut add brighter touches to their has provided a cloak room and & attendant who furnishes checks and as- a necessary. Great theater parties ave becotue a feature, the ladies without bot and in more elegant costumes than has been ule of late years. Twenty-five or thirty Years ago theater dress presented a much Mghter and ied appearance. White or light bonnets, m: lowers were de rigeur. The dresses were de and tulle searts and flowers formed the neck dressing for young te induce ki married arm unmarried ladies, whe the’ older onesexhibited rich lace capes and berthesor fichus. ‘The dres was much less conventent than {tls to- day, except for Lilies who stepped from the din- ner tabi cloak to thee: r thelr aply Unrowing an opera shou. ne adoption of the Short street dress bas had the generat effect of lowering the iard of dress at home and upon semi-publte occasions—the temptation to save trouble by making no change the dark cloth Street or shopping costume being in nine out yen too St resisted. Naturally men toliow the lead and gladly eseape the ‘thraldom of dress nd gloves Whenever and under what pretext Wey can. The absence of the bonnet ievitably leads to a different style of dress. Street costume is not compieve without hat or bonnet.

Ithas become fashionable of late to learn to fence; and there are ladies who take private les- sons of the same master of the art who taught and still continues to give lessons to Mra. Langtry. A great deal is sald about the dress, but tte that 1s Correct and much that isabsurd.” At the School of acting connected with the Lyceum theater fencing 43 taught sclentifically as part of the regulat course; and some of the young ladies are already ‘ousidered experts. The dress insisted upon con- sists of blouse or Jersey waist,lous trousers—pruc- Ucaily a divided skirt, gathered into a band below the knee—long black hose, spun silk or wool, and low tennis or fencing shoes without heels.’ The underwear should be a combination garment of flexible wool, a corset belt—not corset, which can- not be worn ‘during this exercise—a combination cotton garment over the first and covering the elastic belt, and then the upper dress: no skirts. ‘Oceastonally, for convenience, the skirts used in dancing are worn; but they are not considered the correct costume. Black hose are preferred to any titers. Fancy hose are out of place and white are absurd; they would not now be used even if the costume Were otherwise all white. ECCLESIASTICAL DRESS FOR WOMEN. A clergyman in Melbourne, Australia, has, much to his own surprise, originated a novelty in the dress of women. Objecting to the changing fash- fons and colors in the dress of women choir ers as tending to divert the minds ot thelr associates and the congregation from the services daty berore them. he Invented a modification of the surplice gown or vestment of the boy singers and the clergy, and induced the young women to adopt it for church occasions. ‘The dress, includ- ing the cap, js very much like the one in which the Princess of Wales Fecetved the ‘of Doctor of Music In Dublin, and which has £0 often as to De famillar to Iost | ment he would immediately cominence tasting for life of the Hon.

From the Sacramento Record-Union, Jan. 15. ‘The following explanation by Sergt. Barwick of dew formation shows what a difference there is in the temperature of the air near the surface and several feet above: “A few days ago there were several killing frosts, and ice formed, while the signal service self-registering thermometer only recorded 33 or 1 degree above the freezi point, Now, lower than that woul give is degrees, which, in all probability 1s some- what near the polnt the thermometer reached dur- ing the two or three cold mornings a few days ago. Prot. Henry E. Alvi after several hundred ob- servations, utters the following conclusions on the formation of dew, viz., ‘That on clear nights the temperature of the air four inches above the ground is lower than four feet above by about 10 or 15 ‘and the soll three inches below the surface Is always higher than that of the surface itself, The-soll exhales moisture during the night and most of the moisture seen on plants in the morning is transpired by the plants themselves.
