First st. 11-11 lmA MAN IN PETTICOATSiTHE QUEER NOTION OF AN OLD SOLDIER CITIZEN OF MAINE.II© Has a More Costly Feminine Wardrobe Than Any Woman In Town—Visions of Lace, Raffles, Etc.—Weighs 180 Founds, but Wears a Woman’s No. 0 Shoe.Commander James Robbins of the local post G. A. R., Cooper’s Mills, Lincoln county, in T.his state, is one of the prominent men of his community, a citizen generally esteemed as a man of integrity and intelligence. Mr. Robbins has a brilliant war record as a member of the Thirtieth Maine. Ho has lived in the village since 1888 and is a jeweler. His house is a neat cottage house on the brow of the hill as one drives into the Mills. In the narro.w front ball way is Mr. Robbins’ bench, lathe and tools, and here you will find him placidly working away at the tiny wheels and springs.If you are on sufficiently intimate terms with Mr. Robbins you will find him indulging in his hobby. He has one, like the most of us. In his case the hobby is st xrtlingly picturesque, and it may be safely said that he is the most original man in the state of Maine, so far as his curious fancy is concerned. He wears petticoats. Not when he goes down street for the mail and to do his marketing. At these times he slips on the masculine pantaloons. Yet he does not wear his trousers, even, like ordinary masculinity. No suspenders for him. Ho wears a sort of dress waist, and histrousers are buttoned tightly about his hips. He always wears a woman’s number six shoe, with high heels and graceful, slender shapo. Mr. Robbins weighs something liko 180 pounds, and the effect produced by those shoes peeping coyly out from beneath manly trouser legs is startling, to say the least. Mr. Robbins doesn’t mince or toddle, and his shoes seem to tit him pretty well.He reserves his petticoats for the sanctity of the home circle, for the partial retirement of his orchard and for calls upon neighbors with whom his acquaintance is close. Mr. Robbins isn’t squeamish about showing himself in petticoats. He enjoys wearing them, ho has worn them when opportunity has presented all his life long, and he wears them scientifically too. In the first place, there’s no half way business about it. Every detail of feminine attire is there, and Mr. Robbins is rightly fussy about the details.There is no woman in Cooper's Mills who owns so many dresses of such excellent material as does the commander of the Cooper's Mills post. He takes pridein having only the best. His lingerie iselaborately tucked and ruffled, edged wit h lace and fashioned according to the most approved models of any lifdy’s wardrobe. The material is of the finest quality, and when Mr. Robbins lifts his skirts the eye gets a vision of ruffles, lace and “all such like” of dazzing whiteness and immaculate smoothness.He is very particular about his ironing. Everything mu si be starched “up to the handle,” whatever that is, and sometimes Mrs. Robbins finds her hands full and her clotheshorse loaded down like a pack donkey. Amazed neighbors, who were not fully aware of the extent of Mr. Robbins’hobby, have been obliged to ask for more details, when Mrs. Robbins has laconically informed them that “it is Jim’s ironing.” Mr. Robbins’ hosiery is of the long sort, and it is currently rumored that the stockings are hitched up at the sides. His corsets he has made especially for his girth, and these he wears continually. His shape is fairly good, especially when he dresses up for afternoons.In the morning he wears print gowns, for he assists in the housework. Almost every morning Mr. Robbins in his print gown is seen sweeping off the piazza and whisking about the kitchen. He wears petticoats at home almost exclusively, putting on his garb as soon ashe .enters the house. For afternoon wear his gowns are elaborate. Some of them are made by Mr. Robbins, and some are fashioned by local dressmakers. One cashmere dress is quite a favorite, and this is frequently worn by Mr. Robbins when ho promenades in tho orchard. Ho has lots of these good clothes, all of fjffchionable cut, puffed sleeves, and with all the fixings that goto lend grace and dignity. Usually he wears an apron and especially so when at his bench. The apron is white ordinarily and has a bib with ruffled straps and pockets. Therefore does Mr. Robbins present a somewhat unique appearance as he works away of afternoons or sits and converses with his wife.Look at t he gown and you see a stylishly attired woman, but the face is very mannish indeed. Mr. Robbins would be marked in any crowd. His face is full, and he wears a jet black mustache that possibly owes its color to art. His hair is long, black and curly, his voice is deep and full, and there’s nothing effeminate about him except his attire.—Lewiston Journal.t\\rmiirli*ffiurisf sU*er(*is to Chicairo and Boston.
