WEARS FIFTH AVENUE GOWN AT COST OF $9. How In it done? There in no secret about it, at least among these girls, and when a bevy of them discussed | the question with me it was quite simple. There was the beautiful blonde de- singer of lower Twenty-fourth street, who wore that pretty flowered dress with the purplish tinge, beautifully draped with the daintiest white lace bodice, who confided to me that the whole thing copied from @ Paris model cost her exactly $9, the same style now appearing in one of the Fifth avenue shops supplied by the firm she works for, and which ts marked $45, She explained that she bought the wds at wholesale price, $1.37 per rd. Being wide material it took very little to make the dress, und | the lace and trimmings were also bought at other wholesale houses. | After basting the dross together her- self just as she wanted it she em- ployed 4 seamstress by the day who completed the creation, and there you are. Another, a brunette, whose hair waa | done in the very latest style, wearing the most delightful dark blue silk dress with a Roman striped tunic | effect, told how she bought it at sample house on the east side, which | made up these dresses only for de- signers, and this dress, which would have cost in an uptown store about $60, she got for $14.50. Then there was the chic little model in apple green, with the bustle pan- nier eect, having a real lace waist and a hand embroidered, old rose, crushed velvet girdle that bespoke close acquaintance with the best taste of coloring und designed after the 1880 revival And e0 on | might continue to 4 $15 a week. EXCLUSIVE AND DISCRIMINA- TING IN TASTE, Besldes, their taste for the best things the market offers is constantly cultivated, and their efforts in the direction of exclusive siyles is as marked as those of the whoman who pays fancy prices. One young wom- an, who wore an olive green coat suit (two tler skirt and high waistline, with chiffon bodice to match) suid: “Tam glad you admire this dross, It is the first time I have worn it, al- though I have had it for several months. But my dressmaker made others like it, and I just couldn't bring myself to wear it.” Another girl, wearing a tango col- ored crepe fabric gown, with a black silk pointed apron tunic, lace Robe- splerre collar, told how she had the dress made some time since in “ad- vanced style,” but was just beginning to wear it now, since It fitted the present fashions. In like manner some hats worn by {these girls were of the very newest plaque and plateau of the tip-tilted | variety, coplos of those worn tn the eighteenth century, and trimmed with dainty little French flowers. [ut to }go on with description would tax the ability of the most prominent | dress critic. Suffice it to say that, | notwithstanding the cry of ‘how the other half lives,” at least in this mat- ter of dress the girl in the heart of the east side is not lacking in the latest adornment. In no other country has the young woman who works such opportunity for enhancing her natural charms by way of dress as in this, In Paris the average shopgirl works twelve hours a day and has little or no time left to sew or study the fashions. Besides, her wages are much lower, and she cannot afford to buy, even at wh the ma- terials that the American work- ing girl may have. In England the conditions are much A few weeks ago, when | was in a |congeated section of London, the poverty seen was much worse than on the east wide, and the young women there would have looked with awe and astonishment hgd they been able to see their sister workers at this dance, Nowhere in the world has the worse, Girls in the districts similar to the east side certainly suffer by comparison in almost every way, but! especially ‘in this matter of clothes, CLUB WIELDER SOUGHT IN STRANGE SHOOTING.

Despite the protest of residents of the Washington Heights section inst locating the new Magistrates’ Court opposite a public school, It wan said to-day at the office of Chief Magistrate McAdoo that the Sinking Fund Commission would undoubtedly choose the site at the corner of One Hundred and Fifty-seventh street and St. Nicholas avenue. Chief Magistrate McAdoo and the Board of Magistrates are in favor of this location because they will be able to get an old public brary building on that corner at a much lower rental than they would be able to rent any other desirable site, “The people of this section of the elty,” said Edmond A.
