PRETTY FEET.
The Extravagant Prioos Now Or
leans IiadloB Pay for their
Shoo-Xioathtjr.
Xcw Orleans Tliucn.
"Yes , air , " said a down-town fash
ionable sliuomakur to a Times repor
ter , "I do a biff business on wlmt you
ini lit cull a small scale. I haven't
such a great number of customers , but
those I have pay mo well for my work.
I only employ eight assistants , seven
of whom are women and girls ; but
they know how to do the work allot
ted to them to my complete satisfac
tion. I make a specialty of my busi
ness and 1 get orders from a great
many dilForont places. "
"What is your specialty ? " inquired
the reporter , becoming interested.
"Shoeing pretty feet , " was the sen
tentious reply.
"You don't call these pretty shaped
shoes , do you ? " asked The Times man
pointing to a rather awkward looking
pair."Well
"Well , no ; but they arc intended
fora lady who thinks nho has pretty
fcut , and so Ion ; ; as aho is willing to
pay a high price for the delusion I
don't object. You nee , that when a
lady buya her shoos from me her ac
quaintances immediately jump to the
conclusion that she lias pretty feet.
If they are undeceived afterwards they
are too polite to say anything to lior
about it "
"Aro Now Orleans ladies yory par
ticular about what kind of shoos they
wear ? "
"They are indeed ; in fact they nil
are. so far us my observations go , and
I think I ought to know. Why , I
have been paid as much u 150 for a
pair of shoes by a lady who was par
ticularly anxious to give her feet u
pretty showing. Since the fashion of
short dresses has como into vo uo I
have boon put to my wits' end devi
sing new methods for making
foot look smaller. There are
a great many devices for ac
complishing this end , and among
them shading und coloring are not the
least important. A lady should not
wear the same colored shoos during
the day as she does at night , if she
wants to deceive people as to the size
of her feet. "
"Aren't high hods a great help in
your business ? "
"Of course they are , hut it is Very
dillioult to adapt thorn to some people
who arc slk'htly sway-backed , or who
lean forward a good deal in walking.
1 have to make allowance for nil these
peculiarities , and the task is very dilll
cult too , sometime ! ) . And then there
ate deformities in the foot that
liavo to bo provided apainst.
I wan very tnuch amused one tune at
ouo of my regular customers. I re
ceived an order to make as neat n pair
of alioca ns I coirld according to the
menauro that was sent mo. I expressed -
pressed some surprise to the bcator of
the order nt the dimonsixnn stated ,
when Ias told that the shoes
Intended for u female , but the bearer
said that the shoes were for an old
servant. Well , I nftcrwardsfound out
that the shoes ere actually worn by
a lady who WAS 0110 of the richest and
most fashionable iu ilio city. "
"You spoka of gutting orders from
nilaidu places \\horo me tlioso
iilnccs ? "
"Cities nt the North and \Vojt. ' I
don't . , know that there is anything in
the \\orld that is so well calculated to
excite ciivyns a pretty foot , nnd when
Uh person can boast ot such a possession ,
lie or she is voiy apt , if poverty does
not stand in the way , to make the
most . of it. A pretty foot is a , foiluno
' [ o u woman. Last year I made a pair
of shoos for a lady who had as * pretty
feet ns ever were fashioned. It was a
pleasure for me to make the Mines , ; uul
when they were finished I put them
in the show window in u very con
spicuous place where 1 could admire
them at my leisure. Pretty soon ail
nicely dicssed gentleman stopped andj j
began looking at them very attentive-
ly. Presently ho entered the store
ami inquired if they were for sale 1
told him no , that they were made for
one of my customers. Ho lookcdmir-
prised and asked the lady's name. I
uouldnat give him this much satis
faction , but told him whore she lived
.
however. , I was considerably sur
prised to learn afterwards that ho was
calling at the house , and more sur
prised still when the lady , accompa
nied by the gentleman , called at the
store three months later. She called
him 'dear' then , so j guess they wore
married. "
"In what part of the country are
the prettiest foot to bo found ? "
"Hight lioro in New Orleans. The
creole people , you know , are famous
for their pretty feet , but I've found
that some of the American ladies have
as much to boost of in this respect
ns the Creoles. There is some
thing else that you perhaps
don't know. I've boon written tea
a number of/ times lor 'models. ' In
Now York end Uoston. where a good
deal of statuary work is done , the
artists need models for foot as much
ns they do subjects for the face and fig
ure. It is an impossibility to find
a perfectly formed human being , and
hence an artist or sculptor has to work
from models taken from different
sources. Thcro was an artist from
Brooklyn visiting hero last year. lie
came to see mo ono day , and during
his stay said that the prettiest feet ho
had over seen in his life were
these of the old creole gentlemen.
Tlioro is a heap of truth tn that re-
inarlc. An old creole gentleman is the
only matured man that can justly
pride himself on the beauty of his
feet. You see they know how to lake
care of their foot , and when they _ got
old they can wear as close fitting shoes
as they did in thpir young days ,
American gentlemen can't say that
much , and yet everybody accuses the
young Creole of being moro of a dandy
than the young Amor cans. "
"Do you see as many pretty foot
now as formerly1'
"No indeed ; pretty feet nro becom
ing very scarce. I don't know what
tiio cause of it is. It's strange , too ,
that people's foot don't grow smaller ,
because I read that the races are ret
rograding , and in the course of t-vo
hundred years a man six foot high
will bo considered a giant. Children
are becoming so plentiful nowadays
thai parents cannot afford to keep
them in shoes , and hence their feet
are allowed to spread more than they
should. That's ' ono cause of ui'ly
foot. "

DASHED TO DEATH.
How the HandCarwas -Hurled
From the Trestle Bridge by the
Special Funeral Train-
FjttsbutR Leader.
The frightful accident on the Vitts-
burg and Lake Eno railway Tuesday
morning was one of the saddest and
certainly the worst in all its features
over known on the road. It has caused
a fooling of the most intense horror
throughout all Beaver county , and in
fact wherever its terrible details have
become known. The accident , as its
particulars became thoroughly known ,
growa iu magnitude. Last evening a
Leader reporter found , upon making
inquiry , that n great feeling of indig
nation has become apparent among
the friends nnd neighbors of the men
whoso lives have been so cruelly taken
away. This feeling is against the
lailway company , and has itn origin
no doubt ia the many' wild and con
flicting rumors that are lloating about.
lloliab'le information makes the fuels
appear as follows. The train Unit
left Washington Friday night by the
Baltimore nnd Ohio railway was a
special containing 11 number of jour
nalists , together with the coinmandory
of Templars , of which the late presi
dent was a member. It was the object
to reach Cleveland in advance of the
train bearing the remains of the presi
dent.
The trip > vas made without any in
cident of especial note until this city
was reached , about G:30 : Tuesday
morning. No time was lost in trans
ferring tlio journalists to the J'itts-
burg it Lake Erie depot , where s spe
cial train , an en ino and two curs ,
was in waiting , the roar car being ono
of the handsome Woodruff drawing-
room coaches. Conductor Baird wus
in cliurgo of the train , while the master -
tor mechanic of the railway , Mr.
Kainuul Ilaincs , was the unginecr.
Ho is a thorough mcchumc , and an it
was intended to run to Cleveland
xhould bo extra fast as well as safe ,
every precaution was taken and the
best crow obtainable was placed on
board. The train was scheduled as
the second section of train No. 7 ,
which leuvoH the city nt 0:40 : in the
moining. The first section pulled out
on time and reached Beaver , twenty-
eight miles distant without impedi
ment. At Beaver the boss of u mini-
bor of carpenters employed on the
road , Jamca Kobison , approached the
engineer in charge , 11. II. llogers ,
and asked about the second section ,
observing that Rogers' engine had
signal flags , indicating that it was
followed. Jtoblson said lip wanted to
taku hia workmen , eight in number ,
to Falls ton , two miles further down
the road , for the purpose of continu
ing work on n now depot , in progress
of erection nt that point. Ho asked
Honors if there won n probability of
danger if the run was attempted be
fore the second section passed , Hogors
says ho cautioned Kobison not to at
tempt the start , as the second section
was running lively without stop , and
would likely p.iss his train ere Youngstown -
town wai reached. Kobison laugh
ingly replied that ho would risk it ,
saying if thehand-cnr nas shuck , that
was all it would amount to evidently
meaning that the men could jump in
lime to save themselves.
Hopoit nays , the first section passed
on and Kobison and hit men proceed
ed to load the hand-ear with carpen
ters' tools. Half way between lloavor
and FnlUton the little stream known
as Hr.uly's run empties into the
Itenvcr river. The railway p.mos
over thn mouth f the cieok and the
crossing is made by a ( resile work or
bridge at a hoighb of thirty-live foot ,
llobison knew that ton minutes
must olapio according to the regula
tions of the line ore the second section
could follow the first. A portion of
these precious ton minutes was con
sumed in loading tools on to the hand
car Then all was pronounced ready
, and nine mon boardud that little car.
j Nine great strong men in the heyday
of : life , seven of tliom on their ride to
death.
They wore .James Kobinson , a resi
dent of llridgowntor ; .liimes JUldwin ,
of I'hillipsburg ; Riclmut Brown ,
Beaver ; Stephen Foster nnd Elijah
Corncy , llomewood ; George Vankiik ,
Alliquippa ; Joiimio I'etorsun and
Richard Irwin , I leaver , nnd William
Gr.ihum , Biidgonater. The fog that
was visible \ \ ith daylight hnd not yet
oniiroly lifted , somewhat obscuring
the view , but the men had no fear ,
and sped on their way in joyous con
versation. Tlioy moved rapidly until
the bridge across Biady's Run was
reached. Then there was a roar nnd
rumble , nnd , as Peterson described it ,
ho turned his head to look , when oh ,
horror of horrors , the second section
was spending around the curve at a
speed of fifty miles an hour. On it
came with frightful velocity , while the
mon lout all their strength to
the lovers of the car , but it was
a snail's pace to the speed of
the flying iron molister that came
pulling , hissing along. "Men , jtniip
for your lives ! " shouted Putoraon ,
nnd ho sprang with ouo of two others
into the yawning nulf beneath. The
engineer Of the train saw the hand
car through the fog , nnd he states lie
reversed his engine ns soon ns possi
ble , but it was too late. The pilot of
the engine struck the little car with n
great crash , forcing the trucks nearest
it up , and pushing it along to the oth-
DC end of the bridge as if in auger at
the miniature obstruction , throw it
spitefully into the ditch. There the
train came to a halt , and in an instant
all were out and speeding back to the
bridge , looking for the m6n who wore
on the hand-car when the crash came.
What a sight met the gaze of that
horror-stricken party. Poor Baldwin
rested on the trestle , his head nearly
severed from its trunk , the blood ooz
ing over the tics and dripping down
into the gulf beneath. He was stone
dead , poor follow , struck by the
coupling or "bull nose" attached to
the pilot. Dr. Smith Townaond was
on.bqard , and at once went to the aid
of the mon , The scene is well de
scribed at thin point by ono of the
journalists on board. Ho says :
The special came dashing around
the sharp curve on the high trestle
bridge at a speed of forty-live miles
an hour when the engineer was horri
fied to see only a short distance in
front of him a hand car with nine
mon on it. Ho reversed the engine ,
but the train had slackened but little
when it came upon them. Two of the
men jumped from the hand-car for
ward on to the trestle outside of the
rails before the engine struck it.
Here they managed to hang on for
life while the train wont sweeping by
ever their heads. Ono man was
mashnd to jelly against the front of
the boiler , the whole front of the en
gine being spattered with blood and
brains. Another was struck and killed
and his body thrown oil'on to the
trestle , whore it hung suspended
across ono of the ties until removed
after the train had boon stopped. The
man's face was completely torn off ,
and was u most shocking spectacle to
look upon. Still another was caught
by the pilot and carried to the end ol
the trestle , where the dead body fell
off. The others were thrown
down over the trestle thirty
live foot to the ground
below. On stopping the train the
party went back and picked up the
men who were dead and laid out the
bodies. Dr. .Smith Townsend , health
oflicer , who was the physician who
first attended Garliold after lie was
shot , wus on the train with the
Knights Templar , and lie immediately
got to work to do what he could for
the wounded. Richard Irvin and
Peterson , whb jumped nnd clung to
the trestle , were only bruised n little
and did not. need hia attendance at all.
James Robinson was badly wounded
in the leg , which wan dressed.
Many men , women and children
were soon on the snot , the latter
moaning nnd crying ; the men were
sullen. Somo'onu in the journalistic
pany on the trestle halloed to somt
men below to briuj up the wounded
men , so that they could be attended
to by the doctors. They yelled back :
"Tho railroad did the bloody work
and they am the ones that should fin
ish the job. "
The journalists say the accident wus
the result of a foolhardy piece of dar
ing on the part of the hand-car men.
They had been warned by Engineer
Rogers that it wan coining , Not
withstanding this , they attempted lo
cross the trestle ahead , of it. The
foreman said lie thought ho coult
make the other und , wlioru hn ex-
dected to take the car from the track.
