"Of the women that enter tho business," said a circus man to a neswpaper reporter, "their origin is not always certain, but a majority of them are born into the business and know nothing outside of it There are a few notable exceptions, but perhaps a majority of them ars women of the ordinary mental attainments and peculiarly exclusive lives, however contrary to common opinion, that may seem. Until they are married, and that is generally very early in life, they are almost invariably accompanied by their fathors, brothers, or mothers, whose (sur veillance ia usually very strict Ladies who ride.or perform daring feats look down upon the members of their own sex like the pretty Montague, who are not acrobats. Thoy declare that such ladies 'havo no talent' A woman lwrn pretty is regarded by them iu the same sense as a woman born with a beard or no arms merely as a curiosity. Cir cus people seldom care to make acquaintance outside of the business. This applies particu larly to tho women. Knowing that they are not regarded as a class in as fair a light as they should be, they return the same sort of distrust, and outside of their most intimate family friends hardly know or trust any one. Perhaps. to emphasize this faet.Ican cite an in stance in my own experience where I have been with a company which included some thirtv women, and. a'lthough I stood close to the management, my acquaintance with the women was never more than the ordinary ex change of salutations except with two, and they were both married ladies and old enough to ho my mother. Publio opinion concerning circus women is almost entirely erroneous and does them the greatest Injustice, although this opinion derives its origin from the very excln siveness the woiwn depend upon for their pro tection. The public knows circus people as lieing all of one kind and class, whan ia truth there as is much diversity among them as is Eossihle to conceive in a like number of people anded together in any other calling." Ia Telegraphy. "Front which sex do youget the best oper ators?" "From among the men. Some years ago 1 employed operators from both sexes indiscrim inately, but now I employ men exclusively, with the exception of a very few ladies whom I have right under my eye. "What is the difference between them?" "I think it lies principally in the N fact that while the men adopt and carry on telegraphy as the work of their lives, tho ladies take it up as a temporarv employment, which will soon enu oy uieir gemug uuarrieu. i'la We came acroee the following paragraph a story the other day: "Bertram half smiled as he looked Into her face.

Kroun in tbe Nuuikinr, Voidest 1st tbe Hliade. Dcmorest's Monthly. lied hair is coming into fashion in England In other words, the demand for more color in dress is now supplemented by a fashion of a good deal of color in tho tresses of beautiful women. Poets sentimentalize over the auburn locks of young maidens, but physiologists are cruel enough to point out the fact that the most civilised nations have dark hair, and that red and auburn tresses are aigaof.a descent from a savage ancestry.. Cold- weather and exposure results iu a llcbiug of the com plexion and tho hair; hut When men and women arj well chid a:id well warmed, tho He.cretious of the body are bo affected as to darken the hair and'lieard. - When the time arrives, should it ever como, for; mankiud to live under cover, and never be exposed to the rude bli.stB of winter, then will dark iiair be universal. In KugliHh society it ia said that red-haired girls are ' asserting themselves,' and are no longer content with the blue garments and adornments which havo been their herit age for ho many generations. They now affect warm goldon "browns, orange-tinted yellows, ruddy cream colors, terra-ootta, and the whole range of such tints as are found in primroses, butternuts, chestnut-browns and dull gold colors. One charming, red-haired woman in English society wears a gold band on her hair, and dresses in gold-colored velvet . 80 cos tumed, or in a dress of chooolate, relieved with amber, or of a tawny red and gold,' she is a striking pictnre on the trottoire. j Woairn and XewMpsvper Wark. Quito a change is taking place in the social aspects of the daily press, audit is a little curi ous that fewer women are employed upon it th&u was the case ten years ago. Then, two, -three or four women, were employed, in. a more or less regular capacity upon almost ey ery daily paper in ' this eity, whereas , now rarely more than one - has- been retained, and these mainly on personal grounds,nd bytnak-. ing for them special pUcos. There are women contributors among the "outsiders," who do special work and send it to the office, but the number of women on the regular staff of the. daily press is very limited. The causes of this ehange are not far to seek.- Men do not like to deal with women in business, and there ' is a sense of restraint in the presence of women in' regard to tobacco, talky working with coats off and the like, which in offices composed of twenty men to one woman, becomes burden some," and is popularly not considered to pay. If a woman is employed she must be shut up in a room by herself; and 'this is' not always available. Moreover night work is more dim cult for them than for men - and -it- is always necessary to specialize their ftmctiouCT They cannot be sent out at any hour to glean new in regard to impending events, or sodden dis asters; at least it is easier to allot men for oca work. Her Weak: PlMt John Wannamaker. : It is not the lack of mental capacity, but of physical endurance, which is their weak point In system the man is' apt to be superior, but tho woman more than makes up for this de ficiency by a quickness of perception which amounts almost to intuition. . Bui, when you get a good woman, "to too often goes t her work all on fire with al... does the iwork of three in one, and, thus overtaxing heretreogth, is probably ill afterwards to pay for it. Bui the great trouble is that women do - not" make business their life work, .as men do. The young ones, especially, are merely in the store until they get married", and looking forward to that, do their duties in a half-hearted way, which is sure to fail of euocess. Of coarse there are honorable exceptions' to this: rule, and we have many valuable women in our em ploy. Women are quick to - learn and deft to execute, and there is no reason why they should not learn anything if they onlj set their minds to it No, it is not a question' of mental capacity,but of concentration and phys ical endurance. ---- ; Women ieatlt Demoresfe fen!

" Kew York Sun. ;; "You'd take hor for a gypsy, wouldn't yon? said one of Jus tice Nachor's court attendants yesterday morning, when a woman who de scribed herself as Annio Devine of W Tillary treat, Brooklyn, was arraigned to answer for obtaining 3 and a silk handkerchief from Miss Bridget Conners, a domestic, employed at 78 Taylor street, Williamsburg. "But she isn't," he continued. "She's on a sort of a new racket that is just beginning to come to our atten tion. . She came to our door, judge," Miss Con ners testified, "and taking me by the hand, after looking hard at me for a short time, she said: . It's good I have juat called. There is a corse upon yen.

You must give me 93 in a silk handker chief, and take this little piece of silk and place It under your loft side when yon go to sleep. To-morrow I will call around and - give - you your money, keeping only your handkerchief, and Luring back this bit of silk.' It was true that I had some trouble on my mind, so I gave her $3 and the handkerchief. When she failed to call the next day I told my sister about itr -"I live in Bedford avenue," said the sister, and two days after my sister called a woman came to the' door and began talking to me just as my sister told ma the woman had talked to her; so I grabbed her. but she got away from ma Capi Brennan afterward caught her."
