THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C., SATURD COMFORT AND STYLE. Fashionable Carriages and How They Are Made. EQUIPAGES OF THE RICH. —_—_——— History of the Modern Vahicie—Styles im Vogue This Senson—The Woods Used — The Park Turnout — Horses, Harness and Coachmen. ——_ Written for Tam Evgxrne Stan. (Copyright ACH fashionable modern carriage builder has his own designs and studi | S¥ lines and curves, contrasts and harmon- (Ries. As imagination bodies forth a new pattern of vehicle it is carefully copy- righted. Though protected by a duty of thirty- five per cent the carriage builder needs a pretty penny of ready money. The artistic faculty comes high. Men to properly transiate it into wood and iron, paint and varnish, must needs be skilled artisans who command the high- est wages. Material, too, is expensive. "The carriage builder seasons his knowledge by along apprenticeship, His timber ntust have three years of air-seasoning, sheltered from rain and storm, yet free tosun and wind. So only will it harden into that elastic toughness Fequired for such use. Steam seasoning makes it lifeless and doughy—ready to split or warp er chip on the shghtest provocation. When the three years are up the wood is shaped sc- curately for its last estate, and then thoroughly dried with super-heated air. Any piece that does not come out straight and true i# at once cast aside. THE WOODS USED. The woods used for wheels are oak, hickory andelm. Hickory makes the felloes, often the spokes too, Hubs are ofelm. Painted panels are of ash or whitewood, preferably the latter. “Natural woods” are in the main quartered oak nd buckeye maple. Now and again some en- terprising builder turns out a trap with rose- wood panels. Norway iron is used for the run- ning gear. It is rolled and hammered and tested and toughened almost as though it were & question of a ship's armor. Notwithstanding the builder's warranty, for one year, specifically excludes wear of the tires, Carriage painting és in itself an art, a bighly decorative one at that. For there be red wheels under blue bodies, yellow ones under brown, black ones striped with all manner of lines. In fact Joseph's coat nor Jacob's cattle could begin to match the variety, the stripes and streaks of the modern carriage. HOW THE ENAMEL SURFACE 18 SECURED. In addition the finest work is gone over twelve times with the grain. Each coat dries thoroughly and is rubbed down with pumice before another is laid on. The result is a surface very like enamel, indeed when the last bit of varnish is in place you ean see yourself as in a glass darkly, in the smooth shining of your coach. It is a mighty polish, though. Even without use it in a twelve-month. A carriage ix ice, to Jook smart and span uew, must be varnished about three times a year—each time at a cost of about fifty dollars or thereabout. The experts say, though, that use is not so bad for art of the vehicle as standing in the coach house—in fact that a year there does more damage than two on the road, Also that a muddy carriage should be washed if possible while the mud 1s soft on it, using a good lot of water until there is not even a suspicion of grit or earthy particles to scratch the paint, ‘Take up the water that remains with a big soft sponge. wiping from side to side with the grain of wood and paint. Finish with chamois, going over and over until there is no trace of moisture left. Ammonia decomposes both varnish and paint, hence the uufitucss of keep- ing carringes in places over or adjoining stables.

ORTY thousand men who have been en- in census work during the past month bave been practically mustered out of the service. Here and there are ® few retained to do over work which citizens im some sections of the country feel waa not well done. This army was called into existence to ascertain exactly the number of members in the thriving family of Uncle Sem. For this purpose, during the month of June, they walked the streets of the cities ring- ing the front door belis and going into the basement entrances when they could find no other way. They have ridden across swamps and through forests, and they have seen all and a great variety of people. xperiences of these men could be written out what a history they would furnish dition of the people of the the year 1890. But no such jae made. aa the enumerators upon economic con- ditions. What “hey were aiter were “answers to certain questions in the census and these answers they obtained with a won- derful degree of success when the difficul: in the way are fairly considered. SOME GLIMPSES IXTO REAL LIFE, While this record, however valuable it would be to the historian and the social philosopher, is not in existence, still the little files of the Census Office give tantalizing suggestions of the absorbing interest such a record would In these files are letters from enumer- conditions of life Tt the of the social con United States in iad'no have. ators and sw try in which by slight almost incidental refer- ences and then again by a blunt statement they show something of their and then again the difficulties which confront an undertaking of such magnitude as the de- cennial count of the people of the United States, There were perils of the flood to con- tend with, there were long solitary distances to traverse and there were city slums to visit and Yast solitudes of the plain and forest to pass through. Some of the enumeratorsin their wrestling with these difficulties sat down aud poured out their hearts on paper to the super- intendent of the census or to the supervisors, Then again the supervisors took the superin- tendent into their confidence, giving some in- teres ting details, Too MUCH TERRITORY. Perhaps the most interesting of the letters Giving incidents of the census ecompaign, at least to the patriotic citizens, are the ones which show what an enormous territory is comprised within the limits of the national domain, It is evident that there are vast tracts which are still unoccupied by man. An enumerator whose field of work was ino. tories writes that the roads were difficult to travel and he was obliged to swim streams in order to continue his journey. intendent Porter that he rode on horsebac miles and in ail thai distance he found only three families upon which to try his skill as tor. In his district there were still more sparsely settled regions, and he states that he traveled with tent and camping outfit, as there were no houses where he could spend the night. The enumerators received from the head- ‘imtendent Porter is the ided intimations that they personal surroundings, He tells Super- enume) quarters, where Su presiding genius, must bustle. THEY HAD A BARD TIME. Realizing what was expected of them some of the enumerators endeavored to show the su- perintendent that while he might consider he was having a pretty hard time yet their duties wore also exacting, One of this class writes of his district is wholly in an island with about half @ hundred or more bayous or slews of water, which in most cases are impassible on horseback and for stage. apart and water is approximately all over the swamps.” Another writ work: * Families are widely : “This beat is sparsely set- tled, and it works me nearly to death to make ten families a day, working from sun to sun. I dislike to be behind any one and fall short, but Ido not want to break my neck or kill my horse.” Still another says: “I don't want to break down with the work, but will be compelled to fail if not assisted. When I applied for this district I didn’t know what I was doing, for the work is double what I antici; me insist, even beg you one else to take part of it, CASUALTIES AMONG ENUMERATORS. Other reasons than sparsely settled districts induced enumerators to write to the office for One man informs the superin- tendent that since his appointment be has caught the whooping cough, which obliged him to have some help. He adds, however, a paragraph which shows that even the whoop. ing cough does not lessen his interest in the work of the census, He inquires, * record whooping cough as an acute disease?” His own experience with the disease had prob- ably given rise to the doubt as to its proper classifi T ry 4 {to commission some assistance, ‘above is only one of the thousand and one circumstances which seemed to separate the enumerator from his work, One man was Another was poetica!ly de- scribed as having ‘climbed the golden stairs and gone to that country where ceususcs are not In the case of one unfortunate his house was burned and his right hand was so badly hurt that he could not write, fered with the official career of another enu- merator, who writes that he was not ouly taken sick, but over turned his lamp, setting fire to It was consumed, and so were all his census papers.

One of the chief enemies of the enumerator was his feet. These useful members play an important part in the correspondence with the They were continually becom- ing unfit for use. An enumerator pathetically “Mr Superintendent: 80 sore in my fect that I can hardly move.” He might have written more; but that sentence is equal toacolumn. Thereis a pathos in ite that is really quite touching, ied to touch the official heart is not known, A patriotic Ohio citizen writes: “I was in the parade Dec: field’s monument, and my several army dis- eases that I contracted in the army has become worse, 8o that my health isa wreck and I am fit for any business at the present time what- .

I know he is anxious to do the work and the above is no subterfuge. Ihave accordingly relieved him from duty.” A Maine enumerator writes: work for the last three days, and find myseif incompeteut to do the work. I realize that the Jonger I work at this business the worse it will be for me and my successor.” MALINGERING, 5 It seems. however, that sore feet, complaints of sickness, &c., were not always genuine. An Obio supervisor writes that one of the enu- tors “has petered out and complains of si ess.” He then adds: “He should be ar- rested for lazineas,” n been esting to see what the coarts would have done with a man arrested on such a case, if it had come to trial, might have nished a valuable precedent.’ There seems to have beet: but few cases of interfered with in the di Census Office. writes Dear Sir—I am very simplic!
