FOR SWEET CHARITY'S SAKE. How the Gotham Girls Relso Funds for the Poor. THE LATEST FEMALE PUGILIST Whe Oraze for Dramatic Fame—The Secret Life of a Well-Known Lecturer — Clara Bell Letter, New York, March 17.--Even TLent produces novelity in the feminine world of triviaiity. One of the newest fea- tures of charitable entertainments dur- ing this Lenten season is portrait tak- ing by girls, These pictures are not photographs, but old-fashioned silhou- ottes, such as the grandfathers of this generation used to have made. From the method ot taking it happens that gentlemén are the most numerous and profitable customers of these artistic enterprises, The subject is set before n gheet of white paper pinned to a wall, and by an arrangement of lamps his ghadow in profile 18 thrown. If the opération included then only the trac- ing the outlines of the figure upon the paper, the enterprise would not be 8o interesting and profitable as it has proved, but there is another feature. It takes at least two girls to get out a sl houette in this style. One busies her- self at the paper in tracing the profile, and another holds the subject’s head steady in her soft, white hands while the artist is at work. The subject pays a dollar for five or ten minutes’ occupa~ tion of this kind, and in réturn he gets a black caricature of himself. This matter of amateur photography seoms to be on the increase. It isno uncommon sight to meet parties of girls in Central park with photographic trap- pings and pedestrian costumes. They are clubs of picture takers, who go about in search of fine bits of winter landscape. The park presents a great variety of views of this kind, and the .cl‘h spends many hours even in the roldest weather, searching for them and transferring them to prepared per. Their success in the essentially rtificial Central park led oneof the “young ladies to remark in all innocence that the natural resourcesof the city were greater than she supposed. TFair amateur photographers have wvarious ways of making their work or- mamental. The pictures which they take in their studios or| consrevatories, ore mounted in odd fashions. One girl showed to me a white satin fan on which she had photographed a group of friends whispering to each other. She had a firescreen with artistically arranged groups clustered about the five placejone group was a Halloween party watching ‘chestnuts roasting on the hearth. This gcene might be looked at by anybody, but in her chamber she had pictures that were destined for her eyes alone, gr at most for those of her intimate riends. Around the mirror wasa circle ¥t finely mounted photographs of her girl friends in THEIR PRETTIEST ROBES, @e nuit. ‘‘Here they are eveéry evening to bid’ e good night,” she said; “and I was so leased with the fancy that I‘made his,” showing a ‘group of white robed irls with flowing treeses and one with eautiful hands working at the curl ")uw-rs on her head. Circling around ’hese photographs was a long curl paper on which the words *‘Good night” had been engraved in a fantasticscroll. This icture stretches clear across the head oard of her bed. Onthe foot board was an assembly of fair onesin all stages of attire; girls of the gartar and girls of ‘the cross; one buttoning her shoes and another lacing her. whalebone and watchspring machinery. These were all smiling a “‘Good morning,” One more possession of this versatile young lady amused me. ‘card table to be given as a prize at the next Hrogrcssive euchre party. It had & border of photographs of the cham- ion players of the season all pictured in arious attitutes of u~ium?. An oil painted portrait in the current exhibition at the Academy of Design is exciting a great deal of remark. It is a fine thing in an artistic way, and it is uaranteed as a perfect likeness. Nev- brthelesgs, the original woman cannot pe identified. The reason is simple. The back of the head, neck and ghoulders are shown, but not a glimpse of her face. She has brown hair, flow- ing loosely, and her skin ‘is fair and svhite, but those are not distinctions re- ptricted to few enough women to give ny clue. “Poptrait of a Lady,” is the hie. anfl no othéi“explanation is to be pained from the ¢atalogue, but it is un- ilm'slnod that the model is a belle in fgshionable society. The mystery. A young woman who more boldly follllnflufls notite just now isa priz rest is a ighter. At all events, she declares ierself able and willing to meet any pther living woman in a twenty-four foot ring. I suppose likely she is o hum- bug, so far as real intention to use her fair fists is concerned, but she is exceed- ingly muscular, though prettily femi- nine, and she is connected with a riding academy and gymnasium supported by he upper ten. Her name is Annie i}\n'nm' <, and she is from London, with er English accent unaffected by the Ben voyage. She serves as a practieal flustration of the lessons given by the g‘idhlg master to his pupils. Aund her orsemanship shows grace allied to great gility and strength. I imagine that fer pugilistio pretentions are bosh, but she makes them constantly avowing her Ruxiety to get up a genuine prize fight with some woman. If it is her purpose to merely engage the admiring interest of her gentle pupils, she is successful, for it is almost comical to see the wrapped attention bestowed upon her by the very daintiest daughters of wealth and “culture. The ease with which she performs some athletic feats away beyond the ability of the soft fibered pupils inspires them with awe, and the venturesome belle who went into an impromptu wrestling bout with her in the riding ring, to be promptl though gently thrown flat on her bacl in a jiffy, became at once a heorine in the eyes of her companions, Sleighing is the fashionable diversion of the weelk, and it happens to be one NOT UNDER LENUEN TABOO, Snow is not usually a plenti- ful .uppl’y in New- York, and s of sleighin, are usually short; but the tremendous downfall in Monday’s storm covered the roads of Central park so deeply that runners will slip thereon many a day. Sleighs are in brisk demand, and there are not one-terith _enough of them to meet the demand, people, when fit horses and wheeled equipage, sleighs are often lacking, Extrayagant prices are demanded for anything stylish on runners,and livery- men provided with them are reaping a olden harvest. But the private owners st strikingly handsome sleighs arc nu- orous enough to make a remarkable howing, and vehicles that out-Russian he fur-trimmed and bell-jingling jloighs of Moscow are to be seen. Ju one of those bara-like, cold and It was a small’ Even among rich’| open-ended pocketsof the Bowery called concert gardens, 16ft 6pen to the stroet to divert into thém asmuch of the cense- less procession of sight-seping meén as possible, the vsual half concert, half variety performance was well under way. The routine buffoonery of the cheapest sort of motnte-banks and the sharacter- istic nasal singing of inted wonren in short skirts alternated; when suddenl, two or three persons of taste who had strayed in there was surprised to see a stately, lady-like woman of méatronly yet youthful appearance advance down the stage in a dress of sober black silk holding a sheet of Music in her neatly gloved hands, 6xactly as if she were in Steinway hall inswead of the Bowery. When she opened her mouth she car- rolled as sweetly as a bird. “*Who on earth is she?” the manager was asked. “Oh, she ton’d pelong here,” shid he. “She is a reg’lar lady und ought to peen in der opera.” He told her story and it was strangely Iike 5,000 others, with only the differ- ence that the lady was of {nll)‘-lil(o ap- pearance, good morals and excellent breeding., She had been widowdd and left without means. In her happy days she had taken part in amateur theatri- cals, and when confronted by the neces- sity of earning her own livlihood she had tried to join the stage. Her efferts ended with her being on the Bowery at 810 a week. Every week in the daily papers and the dramatic weeklieb there appear the advertisements of twenty-one tenchers who pretend to prepare Wwomen for the stage. Far more than hall of them are frauds, either broken-down tetresses or sometimes women ndver on tho stage themselves. They frame por- traits of actresses of lesser fame, and hang them up to point to as picthires of graduates of théir teachings, and they make it a point to tell ‘whoever applies for information and advice that she is exactly fitted for the stage. If the ap- plicant be old and thin, or young and rectangular she is précisely like Bernhardt or Mnggh: Mitch- ell; if stout . - an clumsy, she is told that she has the stage pres- ence of Jeffreys-Lowis or Fanny Daven- port. She is asked to recite a pbem or read something like ““Young Liochin- var,” and the last straw is removed from the weight of her doubts, Her voice, accent and all elsé are pronounced needful of only a little training to make them perfect. Strangely enough, all these teachers are doing well in their business. One of the genuine actresses in the business spid last weelt that her experience led her to suppose that at least séven out of ten Lhcnwr-gein? women in town, in every class of life, have an idea that they could fascinate the public from be- hind the footlights, and at least four out of ten have at one time or ahother dressed themselves like some actress they admire in one of her best parts, and have recited her lines before a mirror. All the teachers have all they can do to teachs all who apply, in spite of the -fact that the appearante of a newcomer on the stage, like Mids Rus- pell’s at Daly’s and Mrs. James Brown Potters on her own behalf,are the great events of one season in three. When a pupil’s lessons are over she finds her greatest difficulty before her. One or two teachers are able to give their %upils ITetters to theatirical managers, ut there ave seldom any openings to fill, and ‘most of the teachers simply tell the women to go the rounds'of the theatres and apply at each place. Nine in ten soon. tire of the repeated disap- pointments that ensue, but ence in a while thére is a persistent one who modifies her ambition bit by bit until at last she may be able to get an offer of 210 a week in.a Boweny show to give a dance or sing a song or appedr as a chambérmaid or figuranted in & farce twice o day. “And these are often' the ‘women who reach the highest places in the profession. But they mustbe re- markably energetic and remarkably self possessed. Theyfind their associates THE OUTEASTS OF THE SEX the stage merely because a tradition among outcasts those who are on :the stage have better chances to prey upon men than those who wander the streets. If a genius drops down among them she must battle, often with main physical strength, to_preserve her self respect. must hear the profano and outrageous talk of her companions, she must hear and [feel the bitterness of their con- tempt for moral pretensions, and she must slave at her work patiently in the hope that some variety manager on his everlasting rounds for attractions may see her, admire what she does, and lift her one step higher in her profession with an engagément in one of the stock trayebng companies. Thence, by her genins, persistence ac- quaintancesand good luck, she may in time become a member ofa regular theatre company. Bub every step of her way is beset with obstacles and temptations. Another class of advertisements (against which the law should inter- vene) is that ealling for beautiful women to take positions in companies forming on the rond. No professional company is formed by advertising. The max- agers of all such companies get their performers at the theatrical agencies of which there are a dozen alwayi crowded with men and women clamor- ing for places,y to do everything from the duties of aroad agent or ascene- shifter to the rendition of Hamlet. These anvertisements are a new device of the vrich idlers in the clubs. who prey upon the other sex by gathering those who answer their mppeals, pick- ing out ones that plense their tastes and then either mak- ing divect proposals of outrageous char- acter or actually getting tho woman a subordinate place in a fourth rate com- pany by an arrangement with the man- ager, whereby they .agree to pay him whatever he agrees to pay the woman, This is done when it seems necessary to effect their purposes, but the theatrieal people declare that the evil is more ex- tensivé than any outsider would dream it could be. The clubman who thus se- cures a woman a place enters intq a cor- respondence with her, advances money for her extra wantsaud entangles her with obligations followed by protesta- tions of high regard. It is related of Lester Wallavk that he always inquired of every female ap- plicant for entrance into the profession whether she had been married, buried a child, quarreled with her husband ‘)nd suffered poverty, If not he told her these were requisites for the por- trayal of the eardinal emotions and for simulation of experience with the stern realities of life. \/hether that isa mere tradition of tho stage or not, it is certainly trud that very nearly that standard is set upby a manager who has made his bow to the public as the busi- ness man of an Elgli& star whom we all know. **You must have been married,” he always says to women who apply to him; **if unhappily married or widowed all the better.” Death has recently removed a physi- cian in this ¢ity who was the only per- son able to prove a story which he used to whisper to his nearest friends about alecturess who felt the justice of this advice so strongly that she went to him, and urged himto enable her to secretly marry in order to obtain the necessar experience without .the public lega formality, She was, and is, peculiar THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, /) and strong-minded to a degree.

The True Story of the Origin of a Great Public Convehience. Boston Globe: Various accounts of George M. Pullman’s invention of the palatial sleeping cars that bear his name are afloat. They do not agree in gen- eral or in particulars. In order to get an exact and authentic statement As- sistant Superintendent J. W. Stockton, of the Pullman company, was asked for the facts. M. Stockton reflected a mo- ment and then said that Mr. Pullman told him the whole story some two years ago. His narrative was very interest- ing, not only in itself, but as an illustra- tion of the possibilities of useful inven- tions when attention is once fastened upon them. $ Mr. Pullman’s statement, as Mr. Stockton recalls it, was substantinlly as follows; After the idea had beea con- cieved, and the patent obtained, Mr. Pullman went to Chicago and had his first car built there, putting all his money into the venture, The cost of the work wag about $18,000. In all its essential features the car was the model on which the Pallmans of the present day are constructed. The building was, of course, watched with the utmost care and impatience, but, curiously enough, it was found after the care was done that it was so wide that it would not clear the platforms of the stations on the line of the road where it was to be run. As Mr. Pullman had put all his funds into the coach, and no one else was ready to contribute for the constructing a new one-on a smailer scale, he naturally lost heart in some measure. The car was stored at Chicago, and the enterprise was given up for the time being. No use was made of the vehicle until the assassination of Président Lincoln fin- ally gave the inventor the desired chance to enter on the road to fame and fortune. Mr. Lincoln’s body was to be taken from Chicago to Springfield for burial, and {the question of its trans- portation was brought up, Some one suggested that this unused palace'draw- ing-room sleeping car be employed, and Mr. Pullman hurried to get it ready. The Chicago & Alton railroad, under the strain of the great excitement of the time, sent out gangs of menforth- with along the line to narrow up the station platforms and remove other ob- structions so that the car might pass, This being done, the car was used as was proposed, and, as all the' great newspapers of the world were intent on publishing every item of interest about the burial, Mr. Pullman’s invention of course became the subject of universal comment. From that moment its suc- cess was assured. The Pullman company as it now ex- ists was founded in 1867 with a capital of 81,000,000. Its stock to-day repre- sents neatly $16,000,000, besides $2.000,- 000 debenture bonds. The Pullman cars are operated on nearly eight; thousand miles of railway in the Unite States, Canada, ‘Mexico and England, and in spite of some grumbling about charges, are ‘universally recognized as the finest railvoad equipment inany part of the world.

Not far off the great Brooklyn bridge lifts its prow towers and imperial span a myte hosanna to human genius. Here are ships from every clime, The one I noticed was the British steamship Albany, which stretched along the wharf some 300 feet. A swarthy Chinaman, in a greasy eap and jacket, was scraping the side of the steamer and putting on red lead preparatory to painting it black, He jabbers his native Jargon 10 another Mongolian similarly employed, while still amother countryman of Confucius is shoveling snow into the river from the forward deck. Near by are some of the steamer’s officer’s, 1n blue caps and gold cord, stolidly watching the Scandinav- ian crew, humble descendants perhaps of ancient Norse rulers of the sea, mov- ing here and there along the pitchy 866k 16 blogmatia abediance tp bHien spoken orders. A wreath of brownish smoke is curling upward from a huge black funnel. A pufing and snorting steam-winch is busily at work raising with ropes and pulleys, big chests of tea from the gloomy hold of the vessel, and as fast as they come up these matted packages of leaf, brought 15,000 miles from China to aggravate American nervousness, are piled on the wharf, or loaded upon trucks. ‘Which every few minutes go rumbling out into mnoisy South street. This steamer has brought 1,400,000 pounds of tea, or more than 85,000 chests. The largest cargo of tea that ever came to New York arrived last summer by a new English steamer, after a race of 12,000 miles, and beating another tea steamer five days. A closerace for such a distance. She brought no less than 80,000 chests, or about 4,800,000 pounds. Forty years ago the trade with China was carried on by some of the finest sail- ing ships that ever plowed the sees. The stately clippers and packet ships were manned by American seamen and were the pride of the nation. . The first John Jacob ‘Astor owned the famous Beaver, which traded. to- Canton. He began this business . under peculiar the y 1 oircumstances. Tt was at about the opening of the present centuty that a Tondon official f'the East Indian Trad- ing company gavé him a pass which would admit higships to the jealously uirded trade of Cantor, in which the Sast Indin company had long held the monopoly. At ‘that.time he was. too poor to.own &' ship, and had never thought of owning one. 'On his return to New York ha took the Canton pass to one of the leading merchants of the day and offered to allow him the use_of 4 ?m' o considerdtion of half the profits of the voyage. The merchant treated his proposition with contempt, but graciously acqutesced after thinking the matter over for afew weeks, and in due time the poor young German received his share of the profitsin 50,000 Spanish milled dollars, which were de- livered to him in barrels. A few years later he sent out the famous Beaver. For many years khe brought great car- goes from the onde great port of ‘‘Far Cathay,” and helped to lay the founda- tion of the fortune which enabled Mr. Astor to accede to his wife’s terms for selecting furs for him at $500 an hour. The part that the tea .uh|('m Played in the revolutionary history of the country is, of conrse, too familiar to require mention. The China elippers and pack- et long ago disappeared for most part, and steamers of foreign flags do most of the trading. About 80,000,000 pounds of tea are imported to this country an- nually, nnd‘b&ow York has three-fourths of the trade. Most of the ten cargoes received here are sold at auction in lower Wall street by a tall, slightly-built young man who afow vedrs ago was an inexperienced youth fresh from college, and who now has an incore of from $25,000 to §30,000 a year, mainly from auction sales of tea, of which he has sold more than 500,000 ounds in o day. It is Richard M. fontgomery, a protege of A. A. Low, the Brooklyn millionaire, and a_son-in- law of Mr. George 8. Coe, prosident of the American Exchauge imnk. About forty tea steamers arrive every year, coming from China and Japan By the Suez canal in from_forty-five to sixty days, whereas *in the good old times” the sailing vessels going around the U“Pc of Good Hope required from throe to four months to make the voyage. —— If gome enterprising fellow would now corner the market on Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup he could make hisfortune.

Chicago News: A good story on Sen- ator James G. Fair was told in one of the local stock brokerage houses yester- day by a former member of the San Francisco Stock and Mining exchange, who is now welli known in this oity. Some time in 1885 or 1866 the rumor got abroad that a big ‘‘strike” had been made in the Ophir. ~They shut down the ‘mine, bulisheaded the supposed find, and refused to allow experts or the public on the premises. Fair, who was superintendentcof the mine, ‘assured the people that there was nothing in the supposed digeovery. The specula- tive pu%)lic, well knowing “his reputa- tion as a truthful dispensor of point- ers, coppered .him, and their buy- ing advanced the price of the stock from one hundred and fifly to about eight hundred. 'Fair and his suspected collcague, Banker TIrwin Davis, who were supposed tg be largely short of the stock, were forced, is a matter of self- protection, to open the mine to the pub- io, as any further ‘advance would ox-~ haust thefr margins and ruin them. On the admission of experts to the mine the public were horrifled to dis- cover that the ‘superintendent, Mr. Fair, had told the truth-=absolutely the truth. The résult was a panic and ade- cline in the stock, which was not checked until it had druPped oconsider- ably below the figure from which the advance started. The demoralization and financial distress among the gam- blers in mining stooks was something awful, but the affair won for the wily superintendent the name of ‘‘Honest Jim,” which is still his title on the Pa- cific coast.
