WOMAY FOREVER A MYSTERY Bab's Brilliant Picture of a New Type of Her Bewitching Sex. THE “ONLY MAN" WHO UNDERSTANDS HER Thought of and Seen a Great Deal, Yot Not kve by Her Own Sex—Jane Hading on the Dress of American Wo Understood sason brings forth a new type of woman. And the new type invariably causes the appearance of contrasting types, and the consequence is that pay ing a visit to my lady is extremely in- | teresting, if one happens to ho a student of human nature. My lady who affocts to be something a little ont of the com- mon has long ago given up having an “iat home where everybody may come; it is possible that she may do this ouce during the scason, but k-day ro- | ception means that she invites people whom she fecls comprehend hor. In fact, writes Bab in the Philadelphia Ties, she says they undorstand her, but, a8 she is a delicious little raud, she doesn't like to think even for one | minute that this is true, for then the pretty little game of folly which she plays would lose its interest. The day of dull greens, of faded blues and of sulphur yellows has been given the go- ind my lady who used to des- cant on her adoration of self-satisfying tints is now happiost when she is atfired in a tea gown of brilliant red silk, with slippers and stockings to match. She has her jet black hair done up in a queer knot and fastened with a bright gold comb, while she lies back on a lotof cushions that show oriental embroidery, and her boudoir itself is draped and furnished in the warmest of colors. 1If you happen to be very well acquainted With her you can sit on a quaint, old- fashioned stool at her side and she will rest her hand on your arm—that hand the fingers of which are covered with rings set with jewels, among which the ruby predominates—and she will talk to you after this fashion: * Evory Py “T never knew until now what it was to live. I went through that dull neu- tral life when my soul was satisfied with monotonous shades, and 1 seemed to drift along and not to bave any rea feeling. But one day the great, gloril ous sun_seemed to glow upon me and said, *Heart, awaken! Soul, came forth!’ And the garment that 1 wore became abominable to me. I went throngh all the great shops and was never sutisfied until I touched this brilliant scarlet; that satisfied my eyes and my heart and made me awake from the slecp that had lasted for years. And all life changed for me. And it became brilliant and glowing and full of joy.” Just at this time you happen to notice that on the couch with my lady rests a jet black cat. She sees you look at it, and the hand that has been caressing your coat sleeve smoothes that abominable beast and she adds: “This is the only thing among the silent creatures that appeals to me. It seems to me that I onco inhabited a lmd% like this, sleek- and smooth and wicked.” Soon after this you leave and, getting out into the fresh air, you laugh at it all; admive the good acting, find a cor- tain pleasure in how pretty the woman looks, are glad that she will be forced to buy lots of red gowns to gratify her newest caprice and o cireulute money. and then yowlaugh again at the idea of the cat beinga speeckless creature, for in your mind there ave memories of nights made hideous by its ability to speak—after its own fashion, * **x The next visit you make is to the con- trasting type. The room infowhich you are shown is very simple. The fine cur- tains of last year ave discarded for sim- ple muslin ones, and the chairs, plainly covered with blue and white cretonne, are arranged about the room in justsuch astiff way as they are in a convent par- lor. A potof white lil 1 full hloom is on each side of the mantel shelf, and on the large table in the center of the room is a lamp, two or three religious © books, and possibly a paper cuttor, made of olive wood. You feel horribly out of place. You sit down on one of the chairs exactly as you would in chureh, and you almost wonder if yououghtn't to whisper something in your hat. Five minutes go by, and then the door opens and my lady walks in. After you have talked with her awhile you notica that she has a pretty little trick of throwing her head back 50 that the line from he chin down her throat is visible, and you remember that Balzac says in one of his marvelous studies that this line is one that does more to attract mankind than any other. And Balzac was not talking about the spiritual man. The hands still clasped fall in her lap, but you notice there is only one ring worn, and that has a huge white pearlsetinit. N changing the position of these hands, so white and so vold looking; hands that look as if they might beg for the poor or nurse the sick —my lady leans forward and says in low, almost monotonous tones: It seems or- dained that we should meet: that we should think alike, and that in all this great, wide world there should be but the one man who understands me, and who unconsciously bids mo li i as it shonld be. You never knew this, but I have felt it since the fivst day met you,” *" After this there is a deal more of such talk and you go away wishing that you could warm this saint into being a hu- man being, while you think to yourself how fine it was of ‘her to discover your ability to understand her. But this is all knocked out of you when you drop into the Cad club and you hear a fellow you don’t know telling “about a visit he has made that alterncon to the sweetest girl in the world and how he intended to make desperate love to her the next time because she had told him thut ho was the man sho wus destined to meet and the only one who had ever under- stood her, and when someb iy asks her name he gives that of your fifteentn century saint, who is after all nothing wmore than a nineteenth contury woman amusing herself by a little amateur act- ing That is the charm of-a woman. You ne know what she is going to do. Tonight she may insult you by calling you & coward and a cad, and a few more disagreeable names, and tomorrow she may smile in your face and wonder in the sweetest fasion if sho wore dis- agreeablo the night be..ve. She may fove you intensely, but not systemati- oally, If she did this, you would got to vegard her as you do your bookkeoper. I have thought a great deal of hev; I have seen a great deal of her, but | don't pretend to understand her in the loast. You wonder if Charley Cynic is right. Tdon't. I know. Being a womnan, my opinion is worth something, and L think every woman I know will agreo with me and delight ia the fact that they are books of myst to mankind; such books of mystery that even the preface cannot be read by man, although the whole book is open to everything femi- yino, from her who can read Sanscrit 1891-~SIXTEEN A BIT OF AMERICAN HISTORY, And Somas Money for You for Digging It Ouat.

Jane Hading ~h-xd.\\ morn- ing in hor pretty boudoir at the Hotel Vendome, during which time the actress expressed her views on America and American women in her most naive and charming manner, suys & reporter on the w York World, “Ah!" she. said, “I look upon your American women with wonder and ad- miration. I find them far above the men, their savoir faive, or what you call ‘tact,’ astonishes me. I believe Ameri- can women are equal to anything, and seem never to lose their heads “But I see no women here who seem to work or who represent the neces: for work. They all seem to be rich ladies. American women dress far better than Parisian women, but I think them vory extravagant. A French woman will make $1 go three times as far as an American. 1 fear the ladies who visit Paris from this country have taught the Parisian women very extravagant habit they have spoiled our modistes by pay ing them such large prices for their gowns. “I want to ask yousomething. T heard last night that a lady in town had just paid her dvessmakor $300 for a gown. Do you think it is true? When [ assured Mme. Hading that that was not considered a large price for a dressmaker to charge for an elegant dress her astonishment knew no bounds. She said: *If any one in Paris paia $300 for ever so handsome a costume 1t was considered a wonderful thing.” “I am so charmed,” said Mme. Had- ing, “with the freedom of women in th country. They go about everywhere un- attended and are treated with such re- spect and courtesy. Ah, in my countr women have not the standing they have here. I wish they had.” “Madame,” said I, “why do you not speak more English?

Hading’s manner is one of her great charms: her devotion to her mother and brother most beautiful to see. Me. Hading was attived in a long, flowing biack velvet robe, girdled under the bust with black moire ribbon aftece the style of the First Empive gowns. * ““jen’ai pas o y woman has her own particular She may talk about dress re- form all day till sheis blue in the face, but al’tho same she doesn't want you to think she has to wear a No. 6 shoe.

And what a glorious woman's club ident Dame Astell would have mad she were alive today! And still the foolish mind of woman seems ever bent on ‘‘the pitiful conquest of some poor human heart,” for which the gods be thanked; else how would there be any woman born to prate and prattle of the rights of their scx‘.‘* *% Women ave rallying their forces for the most vigorous campaign ever fought in the cause of woman's suffrage, and mass meetings will be held at the sixty county seats before the opening of the constitutional convention in May, says the New York Sun. The speakers are Susan B. Anthony, who is possessed of doublo energy and enthusiasm when a campaign is in progress. She is booked to speak at every convention, and prob- ably will speak every night besides. For twenty-seven years Miss Anthony has car- vied with her the sting of the reply made by Horace Greeley in 1867, when the question ¢f putting woman's suffrage 1n the constitution at that time was re- «d to a committee of which he was chairman. “This is the negro's time, and the women can wait.” The women have waited, and this time Miss Anthony is determined to win. Mrs. Stanton has retived from the open conllict, but she is the nestor of the camp and will wield her vigorous pen to good purpose, and with Miss Anthony think out the plan of attack. Miss Carrie Lane Chapman, fresh from her great victory in Colorado, where she was the chief orator of the campaign, will also be one of the speakers. She is a young and pretty woman, with a magnetic, ringing voice and a giftof inspiring eloquence. Rev. Anna Shaw will place her ready wit and un- Nagging enthusiasm at the disposal of the committee, and Mrs. Emma Smith Devoe, who won her laurels in the South Dakota campaign, and is eloguent in an unusual degree, is also among the speaker: Muvs. Lillie Devereux Blake and Mrs. Jean Brooks Greenleafl and a host of other gifted women are rallying all theiv powers for the supreme oppor- tunit, 1f any one thinks these war horses of the movement are dispirited old chavgers they would be greatly sur- prised to look in upon the gathering of young and attractive women whose names figure on the suffrage committee. An- other surprise is in store for the belated individual who cherishes the tradi- tional idea of a dowdily dressed, shoet haired suffragist. Every head is beau- tiful, with its crown of braids, from Mrs. Stanton’s snow white puffs, Miss An- thony's gray and glossy bands of hair, combed smoothly down each side the parting, to the curling locks of the younger women. They are well and fashionably dressed women, too. Miss Antheny looks like & gentlewoman of the old school in the velvet gown she is fond of wearing, with the bit of fine old point lace in the neck and sleeves, and the younger wcmen dress in the conventional style of the day, without eccentric conceits.

IT FOUGHT IN VAIN FOR LIBERTY Hard Siruggle of the Captors to Subduo the Muny Armed Creature—Story of Encounter R racd by One of tho Participants. The Stanford university has tele- graphed that it wants the monster octo- vus captured at Pacific Grove, Cal., on the 6th to place among its exhibits, It is not an everyday occurrence, the cap- turo of un octopus, especially one of the of thelong u-mnclwmp. men made captive at that place. Conse- quently much interest is taken in this strange creature of the deep, offering as it does a splendid opportunity for stuay- ing its specics. And so Stanford wants l)wm'[u]nh and wants it very much, The big creature is dead, yet the peo- ple who gaze upon it keep at a safe dis- tance, for vhey do not like the lovk of those long, powerful tentacles, seeming to fear that they might be grasped in the wicked-appearing, snakeliko ap- pendages, with the numerous cupules, or sucking cups, on the under side, which cling 8o tenaciously to whatever they touch, . Tho Capture of the Octopus. The story of the capture of the octopus was but briefly told. Thest le between themen and the fish wasexciting in high degree and was recounted in the San Francisco Chronicle by Mr. Hill, who led the party, as follow “Last Saturday afternoon, while in an idle mood, I thought that I would walk down to tho beach, and with some who were theve try my luck at curio finding The extreme low tides for the last few days have afforded excellent chances for those interested in the study of marioe life, shells, et “I was much interested in some shells that I had found, when I heard at some distance off in the direction of the water a loud commotion, such as would be made by the thrashing of the water with an oar. The noise came from a ity in the rocks, and not wishing to venture there alone I called on a friend, and we hurried in the dirvection from which the sounds came. “In going around the cornerof a large mass of rocks we were somewhat fri ened at secing at the bottom of a deep cavity what at the time appeared to be six or eight large snakes, all seemin best Ling to escape at onco. On look ing a little closer we perceived to our tonishment that th were not snakes, but were the armsof a large octopus, commonly called a ‘devil fish.’ It was trying to capture some large eels that had been held captive in the same trap. “Not being very well acquainted with the habits of this rare monster, but much elated over our discovery, we im- mediately summoned some fricnds to share the strange sight. **When the octopus perceived us the long arms instantly stopped thrashing the water, and by the discharge of a pe- culiar liguid it changed the clear water in the cavity to that of inky blackness, which totally obscured it from our eager gaze. The Monster Shows Fight. athering all the implements we could find, such as iron hooks, sticks, gunnysacks, ete., we tried to secure the fish. But this was easier said than done, for it was as much opposed to being taken as we were eager to capture it. We tried to tire 1t by letting it fight against our poles, but this was of no avail. “A large ivon hook, such as used by abalone hunters, was then secured. Armed with this we were more than a match for the creature. We managed to get the hook around its neck and with the aid of some ropes weat last landed it on the bank. But our capture was far from being complete, for no one would venture inrange of those large arms that were waving about in all directions, and we came very near losing our prize, for upon seeing the water the creature lifted its .arms and scurried over the sands at a swift rate. “At the suggestion of a bystander, however, we quickly checked the crea- ture's progress by throwing gunnysacks over it, which momentarily destroyed the use of its arms and sucking cups, and then we lost no time in placing it in alarge sack. We conveyed it, after some little trouble, to my residence and placed it in the largest vessel we could find, wishing to keop it alive as long as possible. We then covered it with sea water, but it again turned it to jet black and effectually hid itself from the yiew of the large crowd that had gathered. After several changes of water it finally stopped coloring it and appeared to be dead.” Seized a Man's Arm. Me. Smith, a clerk, was among the ctators, and bad from the begiuning nifested mueh interest in the cateh. He said: “The sudden change of atmos- phere with the rough usage has prob- ably killed it,” and’ lewsurely proceeded to prove his statement by~ placing his arm in the vessel and taking hold of the octopus. With a yell he pulled his arm out much quicker than it went in, with one of the octopus’ tentacles clinging to it. After some trouble he succeeded in liberating himself. The specimen is, ithout doubt, the largest over caught in the vicinity. The creature is of a reddish-purple color, whick chang, when oxposed to the air. The next morning, after having been left out all night, its color had changed to a muddy white, and as the sun touched it gead- ually the natural color veturned. It has eight large tentacles, which average in length about seven and a half feet. These ave covered with hundreds of cupules or sucking cups. The body 1s short but thick, the head heing very dis tinet. The octopus bolongs to a section of dibranchiate cephalopods, The most peculiar thing about the body is the mouth,which, instead of being farnished | with teeth, has a black hill resembling | a parvot. The eyes are large and white in color. The pupils ave black and run clear across th , making it appear | as though the eye were divided into two parts, The appeavance of this marine mon- ster has brought vividly to the minds of every reader of Vietor Hugo's “Toilers of the Sea” the realistic man- ner in which he has deseribed this crea- BIG OCTOPUS CROARS | ... ture.
