Wealthy Women Who Order Their

'ARTISTIC STTLES IN DRAPERIES.

Elnmed IlaL
E1ELT FASHIONS FOE THE COMING FALL
rwiiimuj ron tub bupitcii.1
The first scarlet is on the "swamp maples,
'and tLe summer toilets show signs of wear,
tokens that the season is in its last waning
quarter. The town modistes are at work
languidly on dresses for their regular cus
tomers who leave orders six monthB ahead,
and are content to have their elegant con
servative materials, Henrietta cloths at $3
a yard, and crapes at $6, wait 11 mouths or
so before they see them home. Life is a
routine of ease and prevision for such peo
ple, who lay out plans three and five years
ahead, and have such a contract with fate
that things fall out much as they have or
dered. One lady of lamily and fortune in
Uew York, who went into society seldom,
kept 30 black dresses of sober, good ma
terial, hanging in her wardrobe, only six of
which, perhaps, were ever put on in the
year. Nevertheless, each season, she had
them rigorously altered to suit the mode and
put them by, to be saving of them, as her
ancestresses were when brocades or stuffs
were bought for a lifetime.
"What comfort we might have now if clothes
and house linen were made up to last for ten
years. There are fine old chintzes and
India silks up in the attic of this house
which were made when the Itecamier style
was originally in vogue, with full snort
waists cut on the bias, and slender gigot
sleeves, and there is as much wear in the
fabric now as in half on the counters to-day.
Isn't it better to pay a dollar a yard for
print as women did 0 years ago and have
some good of it, than to make up six cheap
dresses for the wear of one? I know an ar
tistic lady given to studious pursuits who
seriously "plans for herself, to have fine,
firm unbleached cottons and linens dyed art
colors, indico blues, licht and dark, old reds
and pinks and logwood dahlia shades and
make them up in pretty and becoming styles
not to be altered until the gowns wear out.
For a woman no longer young the idea is
not unsuitable, and inspired by thorough
taste, her toilet would always wear a dis
tinction, only it takes a woman of figure
and breeding to carry out individuality like
this.
STYLES TOE DRAPERIES.
Speaking of special styles, the artistic
thing now is to design your own patterns for
draperies or dressend have them printed as
well as embroidered Jor you A very pret
ty set of curtains for a country house whero
something was desired that would wash and
wear, was of the best unbleached sheeting,
a yard and a half wide, at 25 cents or less,
wnich went to an artist furnishers to be
stamped in various floral patterns, in wild
clematis, in greenish white blossoms and
dull leaves, in old pink single roses or blue
succory stars of that soft lotely hue which
makes beautiful the waysides now in all
2ew England. The blocks are cut by hand
and dyed in fast colors without finish, and
on the mellow ground the quaint pleasing
designs have an excellent air of use and
charm. The French houses choose the fin
est quality of cotton sailcloth for printing
iu hydrangea and hawthorn patters for
chatcaus in cretonne.
Some qrtist writer tells of castrts above
the Tweed where boudoirs are furnished in
white brocade satin and velvet, renewed
each year to suit some grand dame, bnt
equal refinement and more is conveyed by
the linen coverings kept fresh by constant
washinrs. The sofa cushions in linen
damask are so deliciously cool on a hot day, I
jjl jinen curuuus biucjiiiik ui uncu ruses,
have an elegance the white velvets never
know. You can't get it with tile pounds of
potpourri you buy, which has a culinary
smell like mince pie, it is so strong of
spices. No one out of five hundred has the
gift ot making potpourri as it should be,
with the scent of flowers rather than the
pantry spice box.
THE LATEST ENGLISH PERFUME.
The new English perfume is white clover,
the breath ot meads and honey scent;
breathed with open windows in a long cool
summer room iurnished in white matting
and bamboo with turquoise linen curtains
and cnshions it harmonizes benignly. Such
a room to be in keeping requires the fashion
able cut crystal globes lor roses, the clear
glass illy vases and tall silver lamps, with
primrose, saffron or turquoise silk shades.
The most elegant suites lor country houses
are white mahogany, a clear wood-like
hickory with a rich creamy tint, made in
the simplest lines with a bevel of high
polish or a bead of carving in slight relief
and the finest effect. There is a reaction
from the bold renaissance carving which
educated modern eyes grow very tired of in
a frv seasons, and the richest suites are in
studied plainness and perfect finish.
I really think Boston is the place to buy
artistic lurnitnre at reasonable cost. One of
the artistic shops, whose name is a guaran
tee ot fine workmanship and absolute taste,
will sell you beautilully finished suits in
choice woods, something out of the common
in material and design, from 44 to $80,
which my dear New York dear sometimes
in a double sense, I regret to say would not
sell for less than ?7o to $125, machine-made
at that. A very pretty style for ornamental
pieces, upright pianos, for instance, has in
cised or sank carving in dull wood in a pol
ished panel, with the effect of rich engrav
ing. Cherry wood in its light natural color,
highly polished, is quite as admired as
mahogany, and it is our Northern mahogany
lor all intents and purposes.
PnOTOOBAMIIC FURNISHINGS.
Some pretty-individual conceits in furn
ishings are noted. "What to do with photo
graphs is often a question, and the last way
ot disposal is mounting them in the upper
panels of a folding screen, where they are fit
ted in silk, plush or cretonne flat borders,
with isinglass slipped over the picture in
lieu of glass. Below is a ten-inch space of
polished wood with shallow railed shelf to
hold china, and drawn silk of cretonne be
low. An octagon tea table has large cab
inet photos arranged below the border with
wood frames and isinglass (ace, which is
lighter and less likely to break than glass.
Or a row may be set on the wall like tiles
with flat wood framing, and beveled glass
over each which helps the tile effect.
Choice views or fancy pictures are Bet in
long plain frames, a wide view, for instance,
ir the middle and panels of cabinet size at
each end. The fancy for grouping small
pictures in one frame,is old-fasihonedand in
good effect, for related scenes or portraits
have an intelligent interest which adds to
their sentiment and valce.
A frame tull of Mary Anderson's pictures
is very ornamental, for she is better in pho
tographs than in anything else. In her
dashing directory dress and plumed hat,
voluminous niusliu and lace cravat and
rane, she looked a feminine love-lace, or a
beauty of the last century just ready to
elope if you gave her the chance, and her
various pictures in park dress were perfect
studies of costume. Her last pictures awak
ens regret, for they tell that ill fate ot some
sott has gone over her. She looks as if she
had a love affair and her heart had been
broken she who used to look so much like
nothing as a tiger cat oi a woman. She who
has played with and tortured many hearts
has met her fate and grown better for it.
She looks as if for the first time she had
come in possession of a soul.
A lot ot new photographs every month
gives more news of celebrities than the
papers. The time will come when our news
papers will be one-half photographs and
half the rest phonograph. Hodjeska has
taken to wearing the rakish Becamier gown,

and parti her hair on one side not to advant
age. AN tjnbecomino costume.
To tell the truth, that dress looks like the
mischief on nine-tenths of the women who
wear it, on any of them, indeed, not thin as a
wasp. The side-parted hairalwavsis a sign
of character given to intrigue and does not
suit the distinction of Modjeska's original
style. If I had a girl to bring up, two
faults in dressing she should never commit,
namely, to wear a decollete bodice or part
her hair on the side. It has a fast and loose
look, that is an invitation to mischief in it
self. Intimations of early styles the coming
fall offer new combinations in color, black
and pink, the serviceable old pink, to be as
fashionable as the. green and black last
spring, iron gray and lemon especially in
autumn harmony, with peach and ecru for
gorgeous toilets of sunny September mati
nees when color is so vivid and grateful.
Por fine dress, indoors or out, white, brown
and gold will be "the princess own." Por
instance, gowns of light brown cashmere or
wool canvas, with lronts of white laine
lightly embroidered in gold and brown, bon
net of' white laine crown, straw lace front
and fancy brown ribbon. Striped black silk
will take the place of moire for dresses and
jjuucis, ricu coru stripes ana sauu airjucs
coming especially for the latter. Bush hats
and fancy colored straws, which look as it
woven with dried grass, dyed green or red,
are most stylish for late summer, and the
choice for trimming, I beg to add, is not
"grass, poppies and field flowers," but gar
lands of ivy, seedling grasses and hedge
berries, or gauge scarfs the color of the hat
and dress, with sharp wings accenting the
folds.
ANSWEBS TO COBEESPONDENTS.
Ican't look over the burying ground of letters
on my table to find the name of the young lady
who writes to know the duty of a maid of
honor at a wedding. Bnt as such qneries de
mand early answer, she has nothing to do but
to walk Into church before the bride, and
alone, just far enough ahead not to interfere
with her effect, stand at her left at the altar and
bold her clove or bouquet when the ring is put
on. At the close of the ceremony she follows
the bride and stand near her in receiving,
makes conversation, flirts with the best man
and throws the- first slipper after the carriage
if such a finale Is Indulged in.
She shall also be nameless who desires to
know the etiquette of rehiring In a Pullman
car, havine leit home only for short journeys
previous to her wedding tour. Judging from
the manners of very modern young women in
drawing-room cars, traveling in fashionable
parties, one would say that manners were otiso
lete. at least as they were understood 20 years
ago. The easiest way of disposing of one s self
while the porter is getting tho sleeping berth
ready is to Journey to the dressing room, trav
eling bag in hand, wash off the dust, remove
the dress and corset only, and slip an a wrapper
of pretty print in which a lady can face
strangers witnoui seeming undressed, xne
traveling dress is hungup at tho foot of the
berth, and pat on In the dressing room prop
erly in tho morning, without the bother of try
ing to dress in the cramped berth, behind cur
tains which fall apart at each motion.

History of the Evolution of Placing
Wagers on Turf Events.
HOW PEOPLE ARE BENEFITED.
Han-to-Han Betting Too Simple for Weak
Unman Nature.
BOOKMAKERS HERB AND IN ENGLAND
rWMTTEJI FOB Tint DISPATCH. 1
According to the newspapers it is the
habit now-a-days to talk about the evolu
tion of a certain form of belief, or style of
living. It has often occurred to me that a
man need not be very old gin order to re
member the changes that have been made
in the methods of wagering on races. In
the early days say 25 or 30 years ago, about
the only form of betting was what is called
the "man to man" style. Many lovers
of the turf who were in the habit
of frequenting the old Fashidh course
and the Union course on Long Island
will remember that this method was
popular on those race tracks. It is
about the simplest form of betting there is
known; a man would stand up in his' place
and proclaim, "I'll bet $50 on Snowflake,"
or whatever the name ot the horse might be.
Another man would catch his eye and say,
"I'll go you," "it's a go," or "taken," and
the money would be put up in the hands of
some neighbor and the stake was paid over
as soon as the race was decided. The trouble
with this style of betting was its very sim
plicity. I don't know whether the style of
racetrack audiences deteriorated or whether
the strain was a little too much for weak
human nature but certain it is that this style
of betting gradually grew into disfavor.
It was all well enough for two men who
were acquainted to take each other's word,
as they would frequently do in those times,
without even putting up the money in the
hands of a third party, but generally there
were too many losses' to make this scheme a
success. Very often a man could not find
the stakeholder; the temptation was too
great for him ana he had simply skipped
with the money. Then, as I say, one of the
parties might be a "welcher!" For the
benefit of the general reader I may say that
a "welcher" is a man who lays a bet, but
absconds if he loses.
THE AUCTION POOL STSTEM.
This system of "man to man" betting was
followed by the auction pool system, which
became popular with sporting men almost
from the start. The first man to try this
scheme was a Dr. Underwood, of Lexing
ton, Ky., a man who eventually became
well-known to, and generally liked by.sport
ing men in all parts of the country. This
system was as simple as the "man to man"
method of betting, and was certainly per
fectly square. Standing on a chair in front
of the leading hotel or in some famous
sporting resort, Dr. Underwood would com
mence somewhat in this way: "There are
eight horses entered for this race Bosie
Lee, Uncle Tom, Fleetfoot, Winall, Dandy
Jim, Nimrod, New Orleans and True Blue
how much am I offered for. first choice?"
The doctor would generally have something
to say about the pedigree of the different
horses, which turfmen did not pay so much
attention to in those days as fhey do now
when the daily newspapers and sporting
journals give very full information about
such matters.
The audience would then bid just the
same as they would at any ordinary auction,
the auctioneer trvinc to raise the amount
offered as high as possible. The first choice
would, of course, represent the favorite.
"We will say that sold for 5100. Then the
same process would respectively be gone
through for second, third, fourth" and fifth
choice, supposing there were eight or nine
horses in the race. Then the auctioneer
would say, now, how much am I offered
for the field?" or the remaininc fonr or five
horses neither of -which, usually, according.
w ine judgment oi turimen, stood mucn ot a
chance of being a winner. So much would
'be oflpred for the field. The auctioneer
would make entries of these bets in a book
and receive the bets in cash at the time
they were made. His entry1 in this case, we
will say, was something like this:
First choice Fleetfoot $100
Second choice Uncle Tom 75
Third choice Rosie Lee 55
Fourth choice Dandy Jim 40
Fifth cholce-WinaU 23
This would make the pool consist of $305,
and whoever bet on the winning horse
would take the pot, less 3 per cent commis
sion due the acutioneer on the winner, or 2
per cent on the gross amount. It will be
seen that the winnings under this system
were very large.
PEENCH MUXUALS.
The auction pool plan of betting was soon
introduced on race tracks all over the coun
try and was quite popular. It lasted for ten
years. Then Leonard Jerome introduced
the French mutual pool system which had a
run of about ten years. He brought over a
number of the machines from Paris and
they were first used at the Jerome Park race
track. This system is a modern one, and is
still very popular at the present time. It is
a mutual system; a man buys his tickets and
the money, after the race, is divided among
those who hold the winning tickets less 5
per cent which goes to the race track.
The habit of betting on races had now
grown to such large proportions and there
were such a large number of men at the race
track who wanted to get their money down
in such a short time before the race that it
led to many of the large betting men becom
ing bookmakers. There are now, in the
neighborhood of New York alone, about a
hundred bookmakers and most olthem have
plenty to do. The bookmaker puts up his
odds against the different horses and the
man who wagers backs the animals accord
ing to their figures. A bookmaker arrives
at his opinion ot the value of a horse by
watching the recorded performances of the
different racers, studying out their pedigree
and looking at them on the race track be
fore they enter the race; it is simply a mat
ter of good sound judgment Very often the
pnblio on the race track compel the book
makers to alter their judgment, putting
their money on some mysterious horse about
which the betting men may not be so well
informed as the men who bet. One great
thins to be said in favor of the bookmakers
in this country, and it should constantly be
borne inmind there has been no "Welcher"
found among them yet; they would be the
first to suppress him.
BETTING IN ENGLAND.
In England, where racing is a good deal
more popular and fashionable than it is in
the United States the bookmakers force the
public to name the favorites. In our coun
try the bookmakers think they are pretty
smart and in order to facilitate business (as
they only have about 20 minutes' time be
tween each race) they put up the price
against each horse; but the public occasion
ally forces the bookmakers to alter those
prices showing clearly that the public some
times know more about tfye merits of the
horses than the professional betting men.
There is a certain fascination in taking
"tips" on the races even if you don't fol
low them. Ot course they are not a safe
guide, because the man who gives you the tips
takes them from half a dozen different sources
and very few of them are alike. Some of these
tipsters, however, are quite lucky in making
ineir eeiRcuons. udo ul uiq uiuest men in me
business was once rich and lost all his money
on the English turf. While he was in England
he sold tips and now follows every important
race meetlDg in this country. He only claims
to name the horses that ought to win if they
have a fair chance.
We borrowed this Idea of tips from England,
where turfmen have varlons theories in regard
to betting on races. Some, for instance, never
bet on a horse until the day of the race; they
invest on the race track. Many bet on the
large races as soon as they have an opportunity
to do so; sometimes they want to bet on horses
before their owners have decided to enter
inemior tne race, come tninn me proper way I
to bet Is to follow the stable money: It la anrnad 1
that the owner of a horse will not Invest his I
BETTIN&'. ON -'ElGES;
;W
ygJBTJRfDlBPATOH,
'money on him unless he has confidence that he
will win.
GOOD FOR THE HEALTH.
It Is sometimes stated that a good many
yonnc fellows are hnrt bv coinc to the races.
This Is not the fact. If a vounz man is not-t
able to take care of himself ho will get hurt
wherever he is; he need not go to the races to
get ruined, ha can stay right in town. The
class of yonng men who want to throw them
setces away as the saying is will do it whether
they patronize the turf or not; but very few
young men co to the races; they haven't got
money enough.
The fact is that going to the races. If it Is not
carried too tar. is very beneficial to health. A
man has to take a pleasant ride or sail to reach
the track; there he is onr in tho open air and
there is enouch excitement about the various
contests to make him forget the cares and wor
riments of tho day. I know a great many
elderly men who have followed tho
rates for the past 30 or 40 yean,
and they have done so because they believe it
is good for their health. Some .of them bring
their wives, giving them monoto bet on some
of the events; of course it tickles a woman
when she rinds she has won a bet, it she loses it
doesn't come out of her pocket, and If she wins
she holds on to the money. The attendance of
women at races is growing every vear in our
country, and I have read that in England, at
this vear's Derby, there was unusually heavy
betting done by the women. Some women won
enongh on the Duke of Portland's horse to
carry tbem throngh the gown and bonnet crisis
for several seasons; married men know that
means a good deal of money.

AN OLD-TIME BANKEB.
Interesting ItemlnUcencea of Mr. John Sny
der, Cashier of tbo flank of Pltubara
far Haifa Century A Finan
cial Barometer.
twnrrras yon the pisrATcn.j
A half century ago John Snyder, Cashier
of the Bank of Pittsburg, was recognized by
all as our city's foremost financier. He had
"been associated with the bank from its
Origin, first as teller at $400 a year, and
afterward as cashier, successfully weather
ing the financial storms of '37 and '57 with
out a loss, leaving a reputation behind him
as one who made no mistakes in his estimate
of men.
He will be remembered by all old Pitts
burgers for his jquaint, old-fashioned ways
and manner of dress, havinz chanced very
little in these lines from the style in vogue
in Lancaster ccuntv, when he drifted to
this city in youth. The old-fashioned broad
brim and blue coat, with wide turn down
shirt collar, covering the coat collar, which
John Snyder wore up to the last, were well
known objects in this city a quarter of a
century ago. Modern fashions had no en
ticements for him, and the quaint, old
fashioned ways and methods of dress were
rigidly adhered to up to the last of his ca
reer, when he was the recognized authority
in this city on finance as when he was the
young teller at the time ot the war of '12.
John Snyder entered upon his business
career as horseback mail carrier between
Philadelphia and Lancaster. In pursuit of
something larger he drifted to this frontier
settlement in young manhood And at the or
ganization of the Bank of Pittsburg became
its teller, and in a few years cashier, which
position he held to the end of his busi
ness career. For a half centurv or more
John Snyder was the ruling spirit of the
bank. His judgment was law to the direc
tors. An old-timer whose father was tided over
the financial storms of '37 and '57 through
the timely aid of John Snyder, said a day
or two ago: "My father had no claims on
the bank and was in moderate circum
stances, but had no trouble at any time
getting accommodation from Snyder, when
apparently wealthy men and prominent
customers of the bank failed to get paper
discounted. Cashier Snyder looked much
more to the character of his customers than
their apparent wealth."
Another old citizen remarked: "I have
often heard my father tell that when he was
in close quarters after the panic of 1837,
John Snyder volunteered all the assistance
needed, though he had not a particle of
claim on the bank. My father bad not
much ahead in those years, but bad estab
lished a reputation for integrity which the
ofd-fashioned banker recognized and was
ready to reward to the best ot his ability."
An old-timer being asked to-day if he
had any remembrance of old John Snyder,
replied: "I think I do, and no man stood
higher in this community in the olden time
than he. It used ito be said that the con-,
anion ot h nances conld be estimated by the
width of John Snyder's shirt collar, the
width growing with increasing prosperity."

EVERYONE ADMITS
That the success of a town is dependent
upon the relative size and importance of its
industries and likewise upon its location
and advantages. "Without enterprises of
moment to support its population, general
business languishes; without public im
provements people prefer to live elsewhere.
At
WILMERDINB
The presence of both these elements prom
ises success and the rapid sale of one hun
dred and fifty lots, on which buildings are
in course of erection, confirms the prophecy.
THE "WESTLNGHOUSE AIB-BKAKB
"WORKS, located in the town, is the most
phenomenally successful manufacturing en
terprise in the country, and its army of
workmen, with their families, would alone
constitute a thriving community.
The various public improvements at "Wil
merding are being pushed along as speedily
as possible, including the laying of the
street mains through which the town will
be abundantly supplied with pure water.
Substantial plank sidewalks, sewers and
natural' gas add to the public comfort.
Double-sized lots at all prices. For choioa
