Two elaborate head-dresses a from the ae are Legere in one - rr f the cases. These have no crowns, but are HEADGEAR OF ALL NATIONS. | Stapiy bands to go about the head, ornamented with rooster feathers.

Among the hats and caps in the collection none is more interesting than one from the Madeira Islands, worn by both men and women. The cap is of black silk, round and conical, running into a little point like a rat tail. This cap is set jauntily on the bead. raked far over to one side, and gives quite a gay air to the | gallant who wears it. | Hanging up in Prof. Mason's office is a Mexi- | can sombrero of heavy drab felt, corded and | bound with silver bullion.

If it is allowed to get dingy and the brim in front is pulled down and it seems almost ready to collapse, the fan it once pictures a man who is shiftless and despair- ing and who slinks through the street with his hat pulled down over his eyes. But this ia the sentimental side and not the science of hats. In the National museum there are scores of fig- ures representing natives of different lands, all having their characteristic headgear. Besides, stored away in boxes or cuses are hundreds of hats and caps of all kinds. The ethnologist studies hats with as much interest as he studies the habitations of men or the implements with which they hunt or fish. So it happens that there is a large collection of hats at the National museum. The styles and manner of manufacture are as varied as are the peoples of the earth. Prof. Otis 'T. Mason, eurator of the department of ethnology, to whom a Stak reporter broached the subject of hats. remarked that in sp ing of hata one Jaust not lose sight of the fact that hats had their orfgin in some cases from a desire for ornament, and in others for the sake of use. “There,” he said, ‘is a primitive hat, the sim- plest Bat in the world.” He pointed to the ife-size plaster figure of an Arapahoe chief painted in life-like lines, in whose back hair was thrust a single eagle feather that stood straight up in the air. Among the American Indians Prof. Mason said | the number and character of feathers thus | displayed and the manner of wearing them had their signiticun: There are several cases Protect Their Heads.

A napless old beaver, | | \ SompRERO (™exic0) Pat =) Corea, the land of the morning calm, is also called the land of hats, because of the great va- | riety of hats found among the peopie there. Some of these styles have been displayed on the streets here by members of the Corcan le- | gation. There are gauzy looking hats with | Sery email crowns and h uge umbrella-like hats that seem to be balanced on the head. The } smallness of the crown of many of the hats is | accounted for by reason of the fact that this | part of the hat is intended to cover only the top-knot of the wearer. A peculiar hat worn by the Corean courtier looks something like a helmet. It has a double crown, one to fit the head and the other providing a sort of dome into which the top-knot fits. There are two | gauzy flaps extending from the back for- ward. When the wearer is not at court these flaps are turned up so they do not show, | leaders of fashion, | the secret cireul but in the presence of the king they | are spread out. ‘They represent ears, and | their meaning when ‘spread open is that | the wearer is ready to listen to the commands | of the king. Another singular Corean hat is a | great round mat of straw worn by a monrner. | This goes with a costume of coarse cloth. The | hat is bound down at the sides so as to almost conceal the head and face of the wearer. carries in his hand a screen or fan, and when in | the road anyone approaches him ‘he holds this | screen in front of him so that it, together with | the hat, com ly conceals him, A Corean | who has money to live on and hence does not have to goto work may spend three or four years in this unsociable kind of grief. filled with the head-dresses of American In- dians. Those of the plains Indians are most ornate and cumbrous. Some of these are ex- ceedingly heavy and are worn only on cere- monial occasions. One splendid head-dress worn by a Sioux chief was deposited in the mu- seum by Mr. E. Francis Riggs. It has a crown of plumes and a great trail of feathers to hang down behind the warrior’s back. Many of the Indians wear hets or caps of dear skin or plaited material. Of course those who have come mach in contact with settlers or traders show it by the style of their headgear. That is frequently the first sign of semi-civilization, An old warrior who loafs around a trading post may wear his aboriginal leggings and blanket bined with a stove-pipe hat. When stove- ate were first introduced among Indians, y they punched the top out of them the first thing for the sake of ventilation, as they did not care to have their heads hot. ¥ Indians go bare g their hair braided or bound in “*sIn bits of flannel, Among the sontheru Eskimo, chiefly by the women, are worn ornamental headdresses, o—.

The Eskimos wear also fur hoods which are attached to their coats. with buttons, whose colors denote the order or rank of the wearer. Among the coolies round umbrella-like hats are worn, These serve for | shelter from storm and sun, in the place of umbrellas when it rains and of parasols when the ra the sun beat down uncomfortably, ‘The coolie carrying tea or other commodities. as he serves asa packhorse, has a yoke on his shoulder and travels with his burden through the country day after day, and his hat has to be almost like the roof of his house.

Others are combina- ; tions of scarf ond fez. with a button and tassel. | The Mohammedan often lays out all his means in the purchase of a beautiful piece of silk for his turban, Among the Indians of the and the skans there are several forms of hats.

The modern hat of Europe and the United | States has come down through many stages of | development. Prof. Mason thought the stove- | pipe hat owed its origin to the desire of man to | increase his height and his seeming import- ance.

The stove-pipe hat, or silk hat, sents the most advanced step in hat > It is the hat recognized as had ge clore on dress occasions in every civiliz country. First they were called beavers, because they were made of beaver fur, and the name still sticks to them, although now they are made or, at least, covered with silk or a fine silk plush. In fact they are made chiefly of calico, The body or form of the best French silk hats is made on a block by covering it with two or three layers of calico, which is stiffened with shellac. When this calico hat is made the silk covering is drawn over it. The outside is then “veloured” on a wheel, and receives the ine gloss. which the the purchaser afterwards seeks to preserve by the use of many little arts, The silk hat has many names. It passes through several styles in a year. The hat worn one fail looks old fashioned the next fall. The addition of a trifle to the height, a modification in the curl of the brim, or a slight change in the out- ward curve of ‘the crown, approved by the often sends thousands of bran-new stove-pipes to the graveyard of hats or to the second-hand store, to be sold to persons not fastidious about style. They were called stove-pipes from their resemblance at | one time to lengths of stove-pipes. Another name by which they are recognized, a sort of slang name, is a plug hat.

Mr. Balfour Declines to Explaina Se- cret Circular to the Police. In the house of commons last evening Prof. Stuart, radical, asked Mr, Balfour, the chief | secretary for Ireland, whether the circular sent to the Irish police directing them to col- | late all secret information regarding the doings of members of the national league was de- signed to aid the London Times? Mr, Balfour replied that he made it a rule neither to own nor deny the truth of allega- tions regarding the issue of secret circulars, Mr. Parnell demanded a straightforward answer. The circular, be said, was a fact. If it was intended for government purposes, Mr. Balfour had nothing to conceal, His refusal to | explain implied that there was something to be ashamed of, {“Hear, hear.”] ‘The use made of the circular proved that the government was not neutral toward the commission mves- ing the Times’ charges.

RELIGION IN The Presbyterians and Evolution and the Episcopalians and the Color Line. A Charleston special to the Philadelphia Press says: There is trouhle in the Episcopal and Presbyterian churches in South Carolina, In the presbytery yesterday occurred the elec- tion for delegates to the Presbyterian general assembly in the south, The vital issue in this church is the “body of man,” which was made an issue by the expulsion of Dr. V the theological seminary of South Carolin Dr. Woodrow was a religious adherent of Dar- win, and believed in the evolution of man, sub- ject to the divine act of creation, He was ex- pelled some three years ago, but his case has been brought up again and again before every presbytery, synod, and assembly in the south ever since, Atthe Charleston presbytery to- day a distinct issue was made and the anti- Woodrow delegates were elected by a vote of 23 to 14. The colored man is the issue in the Episcopal church. He has been an issue for six or seven | years. Three years ago he became so promi- | nent an issue that nearly one-half of the par- isbes represented in the diocesa secede ii oodrow from ‘The next convention mocts at Aiken in May.
