</div><div style="margin-left: 80px; text-align: left;">
</div><p class="tm9" style="margin-left: 80px; text-align: left;"><span class="tm7">Shakespeare could write a play,</span></p><div style="margin-left: 80px; text-align: left;">
</div><p class="tm9" style="margin-left: 80px; text-align: left;"><span class="tm7"> But he never saw the day</span></p><div style="margin-left: 80px; text-align: left;">
</div><p class="tm9" style="margin-left: 80px; text-align: left;"><span class="tm7">That he could wear his collars</span></p><div style="margin-left: 80px; text-align: left;">
</div><p class="tm9" style="margin-left: 80px; text-align: left;"><span class="tm7"> Just this way!</span></p><div style="margin-left: 80px; text-align: left;">
</div><p class="tm6" style="margin-left: 40px;"><span class="tm7">. . . [T]he spring styles are more generous in novelties for men than for women.</span></p><div style="margin-left: 40px;">
</div><p class="tm6" style="margin-left: 40px;"><span class="tm7">The greatest changes comes in the style of neckwear. . . . The front of the new collar is high and straight like the back. It fastens invisibly upon the side. . . .</span></p><div style="margin-left: 40px;">
</div><p class="tm6" style="margin-left: 40px;"><span class="tm7">Another collar is very tall and turns over with small points at the front. This is a very dudish collar. It is called the Derby,” but is much less sporty than the “Churchman,”
which is very tall, turns over and has broad lay-back points. . . .</span></p><div style="margin-left: 40px;">
</div><p class="tm6" style="margin-left: 40px;"><span class="tm7">But the Easter dude is not confined to collars for his new dress. He has an assortment of marvelous new neckties, the most popular of which is the stock. . . .</span></p><div style="margin-left: 40px;">
</div><p class="tm6" style="margin-left: 40px;"><span class="tm7">The new four-in-hands and Ascots are very much flowered. They are of richer material, cost a little more and are kept for frock coats and semi-dress occasions. The tie for all the time is
the string. This is very narrow and makes into a butterfly bow. . . .</span></p><div style="margin-left: 40px;">
</div><p class="tm6" style="margin-left: 40px;"><span class="tm7">The Easter dude may wear a great deal of jewelry, exclusive of the “sparkler,” which he may prefer to omit from his wardrobe. He may provide himself with jewelled trouser fasteners
for bicycle use, and incidentally snap them upon his shirt sleeves in the stress of athletic or office exercise, and he may have pretty hose supporters - garters - with jewelled clasps. . . .</span></p><div style="margin-left: 40px;">
</div><p class="tm6" style="margin-left: 40px;"><span class="tm7">The Easter dude will be very particular about the small belongings of dress, and for that - as John L. Sullivan said of Mrs. Fitzsimmon’s presence at the prize-fight - no real gentleman
will have any criticism to make!</span></p><div style="margin-left: 40px;">

a blush-rose so passionately that he lost his brains in the attempt to express
himself.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is why the dude nowadays
halts in his speech, for his language is too profound to run smoothly.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Any attempt at easy and correct conversation ends

certify that the specimen of the dude submitted to me was subjected to chemical
analysis, and, strange to say, when I got through with him there was nothing
left of him.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There was a very minute
brown spot left in the chief retort, which under the microscope looked like the
chewed end of a paper cigarette, but I won’t swear that even that was left of
him. (Please send check when convenient.)</span></p>

senior he learns how to classify himself and wilts. Genus Lemuridae, mostly
nocturnal, soft wool (instead of brains), and looks best when stuffed.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Some day they will be used by ladies for
their hats instead of humming-birds.</span></p>

on Architecture), with an air of eternal sopition (obsoltete – that’s why I use
the word) bout him, eyes as opium-soaked as an eastern houri’s (a mixed figure,
but one which will give me an advertisement), and a tongue as eloquent as a

cliques who think Ferris is a “Righteous Dude.”</span></p>

sluts, bloods, waistoids, dweebies, dickheads - they all adore him. They think
he's a righteous dude.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">But Ferris
was not the first “Dude” to be described as “righteous” – he missed that honor
by more than a century.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And although
Ferris’ status as a “righteous dude” was apparently a positive evaluation of
his character, the earliest examples are snarky jibes aimed at wealthy, young Republicans.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">In June 1884
during the early days of the Presidential campaign that would pit the Democrat
candidate, Grover Cleveland, against the Republican James G. Blaine, a
Democratic Congressman from (appropriately for Ferry) Chicago predicted that if
Blaine ran as a Democrat, he would attract Democratic support as well, losing the
votes of only a few uptight New York and Boston Republicans.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">“Were Blaine the Democratic standard-bearer, the Democrats
would adore this brilliant man,” and he predicts that Blaine will receive the
votes of a dozen Irish-Americans for every vote lost through the bolt of the
swallow-tailed, white-chokered, super-righteous dudes of New York and Boston
who style themselves Independent Republicans.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Blaine had
been stained by a corruption scandal eight years earlier, after the discovery
of letters implicating him in an influence-peddling scandal.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He proclaimed his innocence, and some of his
supporters insisted the letters were forged.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>But the scandal still haunted Blaine in 1884, with a coalition of “Independent”
voters opposing him on moral grounds, using the so-called “Mulligan Letters” as
their primary point attack.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>An article
in support of Blaine predicted their attacks would fail, and listed “self-righteous
dudes” (presumably Independent Republicans) among Blaine’s critics.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">For the grand combination party of all the talents,
copperheads and Pharisees, self-righteous dudes and Tammany Hall men,
forged-letter mongers, and holy political perfectionists, this mouse brought forth
by the laboring mountain, this popgun that was to have been a columbiad, this
tempest in a teapot which their united genius has evolved, must be a bitter
disappointment.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">An “extra
righteous Dude” made headlines in a more honest style of contest a half-century
later – professional wrestling.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But
whereas “super righteous” or “self-righteous” appear to have been intended as sarcastic
insults in 1884, “extra righteous” in the context of professional wrestling was
intended to suggest that it would be an honest match – “as clean as the driven
snow” (or nearly so; OK, so perhaps also sarcastically).</span></p>

The word, "dude," was coined in 1883, and the members of the Knickerbocker Club of New York City (whose members were purporteldy descended from the original Knickerbocker settlers of New Amsterdam) may have been the original "Dudes" who inspired the new word. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="height: 463px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; width: 560px;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="597" data-original-width="541" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh228qRRDxGHfSKP0erMW_IEEyCAfDISWn1O7F_RuJbs4c9ectPfUMB2w5-yQKNb8YpbQSruaXBmMpwaSc2RVzL7mKV2jeiF76AtMIw8IUlj4S-x3cBMvQo3Xq0DQ-6urkuYlVXorwT3Ipf/w363-h400/sunday+ledger+-+topeka+kansas+-+july+1+1888+page+2+-+knickerbocker+club+window.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="363" /></td></tr><tr align="left"><td class="tr-caption"><div style="margin-left: 40px;">Members of the Knicerbocker Club gazing out their window may have inspired the original "Dude" in 1883.

His high crowned, wide brimmed hat, his well fitting stockings and wide, immaculate collar made of hinm a spectacle of sever fashion that would terrorize a child to-day. Like other dandies, his face agreed with his costume. It was long, doleful, awful. The friskiness of youth was eliminated from his anatomy, and he went forth among the fair sex conquering only in the straight and narrow way. His manners were no jollier than his garments, for be it known clothes are the expression of thought, and always agree with the manners of the wearer. <br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ2sulmDJxsb4RiehftRzNdfTTrmJkqPQ7yGrwhVMW5KqKEaZwB_wYhfcPfqfrD55fZ-gxqGhfwtpK9TEZ44SjFDxIBch9C9qSGmM2aqokyGRZiFgWaRY_cE6tuPmqc2NLKOCn2EMoBhXM/s813/Lawrence+Tribune+march+4+1887+page+1+swells+of+the+past+knickerbocker+beau.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="813" data-original-width="546" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ2sulmDJxsb4RiehftRzNdfTTrmJkqPQ7yGrwhVMW5KqKEaZwB_wYhfcPfqfrD55fZ-gxqGhfwtpK9TEZ44SjFDxIBch9C9qSGmM2aqokyGRZiFgWaRY_cE6tuPmqc2NLKOCn2EMoBhXM/w269-h400/Lawrence+Tribune+march+4+1887+page+1+swells+of+the+past+knickerbocker+beau.jpg" width="269" /></a> <br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-left: 40px; text-align: left;"> The original dude of New Amsterdam, the swell Knickerbocker, was a gay, gorgeous creature. It is even now whispered that Hendrick Hudson was one. He wore extraordinary collars, rosettes on his shoes, and other garments of peculiar extravagance. When gotten up with a view to heart breaking experiences he was a creature to dazzle and overwhelm. You will find him still, done up in canvas and oil, on the walls of his rich descendants in New York. Sometimes, however, hie is very grand in the portrait, all ruffles and glory, when the original spent his life in a butcher's apron. Descendants have a pardonable habit of improving their dead ancestors, and making them up with the times.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-left: 40px; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-left: 40px; text-align: left;">Knee breeches for all men are threatened and will doubtless arrive.

Trousers are the mortal enemy of beauty. They came in with the French revolution. Teh French peasant wore a baggy leg wear on the trouser plan. His conception of democracy was to compel everybody to wear the same kind of clothing. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-left: 40px; text-align: left;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-left: 40px; text-align: left;">Aristocrats wore stockings to the knee, hence the peasant argued that stockings to the knee indicated tyranny and oppression, and his kind of trousers were symbolical of equal rights for all men. And he enforced his theory by cutting off the heads of all who clung to stockings. Naturally men found it to their interest to discard stockings and put on trousers. Hence we have trousers now, and find it hard to get rid of them.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-left: 40px; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-left: 40px; text-align: left;">The modern dude wouldn't say overcoat for the world; but he talks a good deal about his "top coat." And he would hold no communication with a person who spoke of trousers as pantaloons, though the day has been when that name was considered good enough for the bifurcated garments of men, by very respectable people. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-left: 40px; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-left: 40px; text-align: left;">And no dandy who keeps up with the times recognizes such a thing as a cane! Not he. He "wears a walking stick," a thick, stout stick, very strong, club-like looking, consequently very English.<br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div><br /><p></p>Peter Jensen Brownhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00042588192094310236noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917311715414061484.post-58774938362202211082021-04-20T14:17:00.002-07:002022-03-10T14:46:21.957-08:00Dudess, Dudine, Dudette or Dudelet - a Feminine Dude by any other name would "Swell" as sweet <p> <!--[if !mso]>

introduction of the word “Dude” in 1883 solved one linguistic problem and
created a new one.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It provided a word to
describe society "swells," the frivolous, idle sons of Gilded Age millionaires who affected an
English accent and wore a monocle, a short overcoat over a long jacket, tight
trousers, pointy shoes and sucked the silver tips of their canes; but created
the need for a new word to refer to the frivolous, idle daughters of Gilded Age
millionaires.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">“Female Dude”
and “Lady Dude” were useful, but not very expressive.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">The female dude is running to the Langtry style.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Hat and dress are of the same material.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Her bonnet is small with na oblong plaited
crown, surrounded by a turban-like roll.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>No ornaments are worn to adorn it.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Her hair is wrn a la Circassian, standing straight out in front and on
the top, the back being gathered in a careless twist, with a strand or two
hanging as if it had escpaped from the hair pin.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Her dress is covered by a tight fitting coat
that is trimmed with velvet and braid a la militare.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Patent leather shoes peep out from the lower
borders of her coat, and a stand-up collar keeps the head as straight as a
vise.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When two dudes meet each bend
forward the whole body, they cannot bend in the middle, and just as you expect
to see them fall on their faces they recover themselves by an effort painful to
see.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">“Fine aft,” says the lady dude.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">“Very find aft,” replies the male dude.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 0.5in;"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Then both smile so that it wrinkles the paint on their faces,
they think of this, check themselves and look like a couple of chattering apes.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">A more
academic approach to the question (surprisingly, perhaps, not from Harvard),
questioned the suggestion of “Dudette” as imprecise and misleading.</span></p>

subject, not on the dudes but on the word, the name.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now if the new outgrowth from slangdom is to
be admitted into the King’s English upon an equal footing with other common
nouns let us settle upon some decent termination which will make it applicable
to the fair sex, for it would be absurd to say that there are no female dudes,
for you may perhaps have noticed that a lady writing to the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Catahoochee Gyraffe</i> to inquire what is
the feminine of dude, to which the editor very complacently answers dudette.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 10.0pt; margin: 10pt 0in 0in 0.5in; mso-line-height-alt: 1.0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Now where did that learned dictator get his knowledge?
Ancient history is silent on the subject; science it seems has not grappled
with it, orthoepists have eschewed it, and unless he can produce something
better than his mere dictum we are going to rebel; we object to the “ette,” for
many reasons; first, we have too many etts altogether; second, “ette” is not
the proper thing, it is not only arbitrary but, a perversion of the sense of
the suffix, which being a diminutive cannot be bulldosed into a simple expression
of gender.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now, we might call it Dudee
or Doodledoo for that matter, but we have a terminal already in use which is
euphonious, graceful and proper and as we believe in the survival of the
fittest, we contend for its application in this case.</span></p>

two hundred pounder wouldn’t she be a petite Dudette, and when the ladies come
to talk of Miss Antonette being a brunette wearing a rosette and smoking the
fragrant cigarette being a dudette wouldn’t the repetition be monotonous? Well,
allow us to just blandly whisper that it would.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

right to be, the first to inquire into this matter, we think they will agree
with us that dudess is the proper and the only proper feminine for dude.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We have princess, empress, actress, doctress,
and so on, and why not dudess.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></p>

press, the great promoter and director of thought, the great laboratory of
public opinion, will earnestly, and persistently sit down on the dudette, that
is, on the term, the name, you know.</span></p>

fashionable hobbies which has not reached Washington, the society young ladies
would like to have it passed this way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This year it is the proper thing for one young lade to be desperately in
love with another.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She may have a young
man – and most of them do – but unless she id desperately in love with one of
her own sex she can rest assured that she is not <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">en regle</i>.</span></p>

here.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Those of us who have been watching
its rapid growth have been intensely amused at the extremely practical manner
in which some of the young ladies go about it.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 10.0pt; margin: 10pt 0in 0in 0.5in; mso-line-height-alt: 1.0pt;"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">It must not be supposed that because fashion’s whim
commands a young lady to rave about some other young lady’s beauty, and to drip
all manner of literary treacle over thye object of her alleged desires, that it
is at all necessary that her “mash” should be one of her own circle of
friends.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The shrewd girl will never
permit herself to be caught in such a flimsy trap as that.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>She must admire something feminine, and so she
looks about her and usually settles down upon some actress.</span></p>

favorites.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>All three of them are deluged
with flowers and perfumed notes every time they come to town.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Not long ago Miss Winston stopped for about
two hours in Washington on her way North.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>A delegation of young ladies met her at the depot and entertained this
feminine Bunthorne during her stay.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Quite recently Jarbeau played in the “Mikado” at one of our
theaters.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Two young ladies at once
became desperately smitten.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They called
and were cordially received.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Jarbeau
told them all manner of pretty things about herself, her origin and her
history.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They were enraptured, but when
the clever little actress innocently told them that she was barely past 20, and
that she felt just like a school girl, the young ladies looked at each other a
trifle incredulously.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Before they left
Jarbeau managed to tell them that in case they hired a box at the matinee she
would flirt with them from the stage.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The girls hired the box and Jarbeau did as she promised.</span></p>

never moved in society at the capital, but it must be confessed that when one
looks at the average brainless dude who is supposed to entertain the young lady
he does not wonder at the fact that the girls are falling in love one with
another.</span></p>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">John W. Coffey, the “Skeleton Dude,” began
his career as a run-of-the-mill, “thin man” sideshow act under the stage-name,
the “Ohio Skeleton,” in about 1885.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He
rose to greater fame after affecting the distinctive dress and mannerisms of a typical
“Dude,” adopting the title “Duke of Tuxedo,” and taking the stage name, the “Skeleton
Dude.” The stereotypical “Dude” of the day was frequently said to have “toothpick
legs” and a generally weak physique, so the persona fit perfectly with his
physical traits.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; margin-left: .5in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 0in;">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">The skeleton dude owns large estates in Portugal or
somewhere, and his proper title is the Duke of Tuxedo.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>At least so his manager says, and of course
it must be true.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The “Dook” is a native
of Ohio, and his name at home is John Coffey.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>He is a skeleton by nature and a dude by profession.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He differs from other dukes in one respect –
that is, in the matter of brains, John has some.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Living skeletons were at a discount when John
started as a freak.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One day he was
reading the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Analytical Psychologist</i>,
or some comic paper of that kind, and he saw a picture of a dude – a caricature
– with pipe-stem legs and attenuated frame, and he slapped his thigh bone and
shouted “Eureka.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Three days later, Mr.
Coffey made his debut in a Cincinnati museum as “the Duke of Tuxedo, the
Skeleton Dude.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The bills announced that
the Duke had come over to this country to look for a wife, and that any nice
girl who would agree to overlook his attenuity of frame might have his hand in
marriage and half his estates in Portugal.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>The bills didn’t say anything about Mrs. Coffey and the five little
Coffey beans in the little Ohio village, where John used to work as a painter
and paper hanger before muscular atrophy took the flesh off his bones and made
him a freak.</span></div>

1884 and running through at least 1885.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

was also trouble.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> In his previous stint </span>with Mestayer in “The Tourists,” he reportedly got a swell head from
success and demanded more and more pay, which landed him out of the company and
relegated him back to low-grade “variety” theater.<a href="https://a-dude-a-day.blogspot.com/2020/05/single-dude-and-double-dude-we-us-co.html#_edn3" name="_ednref3" style="mso-endnote-id: edn3;" title=""><span class="MsoEndnoteReference"><span style="mso-special-character: footnote;"><span class="MsoEndnoteReference"><span style="font-family: "calibri" , "sans-serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">[iii]</span></span></span></span></a><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And even after signing his contract to play the “dude,”

joined the show and went on tour with them. But being on the road brought new troubles.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In Kansas City, he was accused
of blackmail.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>An account in the press
(perhaps written by Mestayer’s press agent) described the charges as “trumped
up.”</span></div>

he got into another trouble, which the Omaha Bee tells of as follows: “While in
Omaha he got so full of disagreeable bug juice that on the sleeping car his
actions were greatly annoying to the other passengers.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Two or three times the colored porter tried
to quit him, but without good results.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Finally
the porter gave Mr. Bruno a strong thrashing, which had the effect of silencing
the boisterous gentleman for several minutes, but the war broke out again.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Bruno watched an opportunity, and when the
porter’s back was turned, jumped on him and commenced to chew his neck, ears
and cheek.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The porter was so badly
chewed up that he had to stop off and return here yesterday for medical
treatment.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is common for actors to be known as scene eaters, but porter chewers are not frequent among them.”</span></div>

form is riper than the twelve years that have passed over her curly head would
warrant.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Kronberg saw Bruno loafing
around his house yesterday.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He has been

intent.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Bruno was fined $25 for striking

Dude"’</span></a></b></span></div>
<div align="center" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
‘[The following "pome," somewhat inscrutable” by THE WORLD. is
published as of probable interest, "to whom it may concern,"<sup> </sup>like
A. Lincoln’s Niagara letter to Horace Greeley]:<br />
<br />
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
Long years ago, in ages crude, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Before there was a mode, oh! <br />
There lived a bird, they called a "Dude," <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Resembling much the "Dodo."<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
Its stupid airs and vanity <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Made other birds explode, so <br />
They christened it in charity <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>First cousin to the "Dodo."</div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br />
It plumed itself in foreign plumes, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And thought home products no-no <br />
For idiocy it ranked with "Lunes," <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And hence surpassed the
"Dodo."</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<br />
When Darwin’s theory first saw light, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>"The Dude" he tried to think
of, <br />
But monkeys being far more bright, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He made the missing link of.</div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br />
Now lately in this hemisphere, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Through some amalgamation, <br />
A flock of Dudes, I greatly fear, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Are added to our nation.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">In form and feature rather young–</span><br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Somewhat resembling man, sir– <br />
They flit about and speak a tongue <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That is not worth a d–n, sir.</div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br />
Their features, first I would explain <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Are of the washed-out order– <br />
Mild dissipation, feeble brain. <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With cigarette smoke border. </div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<br />
Their feathers o’er their brow they bang, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Their cheek resembles leather; <br />
Their style, inclusive, is in slang. <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The "Strike me with a
feather."</div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br />
Their father’s cuff supports a hat–<br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The head just seen between them; <br />
A coachman’s riding coat at that <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Envelopes all and screens them;</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<br />
Save just below the coat is seen, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Where muscles ought to be, sir, <br />
A pair of pipe stems, cased in green, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Skin-tight and half-mast high, sir.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
To this please add a pointed shoe, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Verandas built around it; <br />
A necktie, either white or blue, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>C’est fini, if you doubt it.</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<br />
Just take a walk some sunny day- <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Be sure the wind’s not high, sir, <br />
For in a breeze they dare not stay <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Before they’ve learnt to fly, sir. —</div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br />
And there in flocks upon the ave <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For ladies they’re but slim beaux, <br />
You see them flitting o’er the pave, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With arms—or wings—akimbo.</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<br />
They have their nests, also a club, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Alas, so misapplied, sir, <br />
Like other birds they love light grub, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For beef’s to them denied, sir.</div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br />
Of stairs their club-house has no need, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For, entering the hall door, <br />
They take a long breath and with speed <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Float upwards off the hall floor.</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<br />
And soaring up are caught with nets <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With ribbons held together, <br />
And after being nursed, the Pets <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Are blown home on a feather.</div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br />
They hardly breathe, they are so light; <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>A smile their coat it creases, <br />
And one who laughed the other night, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Was carried home in pieces.</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<br />
They do not care for cruel sports, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Like foot-ball, cricket, gunning, <br />
But lemonade they drink by quarts, <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Their girling’s "real
stunning!" </div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br />
The Brush Electric Lighting Co. <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Have cased their lights in wire <br />
For fear, attracted by the glow <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They’d set their wings on fire.</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<i><br /></i>
<i>Imported "Dudes" are very shy</i><sup>
<br />
</sup><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Now "Oscar’s" crossed
the ocean. <br />
But native "Dudes" soon learn to fly <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And seem to like the notion.</div>
<div style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br />
If they would only fly away <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>And settle out in China, <br />
Give us the chance, the girls will say <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To hunt up something finer.</div>
<div style="margin-left: 1.0in;">
<br />
America can ill afford <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To harbor such deformity, <br />
And we would humbly thank the Lord <br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>To spare us this enormity.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
“I suppose you have heard of our dudes, Miss Clarwa?” observed a

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: .5in;">
“Oh, yes,” she answered, “they are
becoming very popular in Florida.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>We use
them for alligator bait.”</div>

these was a negro.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He is still
here.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He is as gaudy as a circus-wagon,
and twice as handsome.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>He condescends to
act as a waiter at one of the hotels for a few hours each day, but during the
large leisure of that class, and while his fellows are playing base-ball on
South Broadway, or pitching quoits on back streets, he clothes himself in all
his wardrobe’s glory and promenades Broadway.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>No pains and but little expense is spared in his get up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>His natural color is as brilliant as that of
a new rubber shoe.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>His mouth is as
handsome as a gash in an over-ripe watermelon.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>His necktie is the reddest of the red, his gloves are white kids, and
the tops of his gaiters are dove-colored.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>During his triumphal march the backmen cease from troubling and the
‘busmen are at rest; the little dogs laugh to see such sport, and the tally-ho
coach guard hath not where to blow his horn.</span></div>

represented as descending a pair of stairs, presumably those of the White
House.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One foot is upon the ground and
the other rests upon the last step, while he looks fondly down after a red, red
rose that has slipped presumably from his buttonhole and is falling to the
ground.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The whole pose is intensely aesthetic
and strongly reminds one of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patience_%28opera%29">“Bunthorne” in
