Men's Suspenders,
Women outnumber men In England,
and It Is a common complaint In many
British towns that "there are no men."
In watering places like Bournemouth
and Torquay the number of l.idy res
idents S'J greatly exceeds that of men
that there Is very real ground for this
complaint.
Yet within 30 miles ft Torquay
stands a town, complete with railway
station, post, telegraph, and shops,
whlrh, though not exclusively Inhab
ited by men, has yet fully 10 times
as many male as female residents.
This is Prlncetown, 1400 feet above
the sea on the ridge of Dartmoor.
While the town proper has but thretj
or four hundred Inhabitants, of whom,
rather less than half are women, there
are nearly 1000 convicts, all men, to
sny nothing of a large number of war
dens, a comparatively small propor
tion of whom are married.
With the exception of one or two
temporary villages, built of tin or
canvas. In which Rre housed navvies.
cnaaired. 0ll new waterworks and rall-
! ways, there are no towns or villages
!n these Islands In which women do
not find a home. Elsewhere, however,
there are several such curious settle
menls.
One is to be found Ir. t'tnh, surel;
the last rart of the world where one
would expect to see a city without wo
men. Its name Is Sunnyslde, and It is
inhabited by some 400 men who work
In the new collieries reecntly estab
lished there.
Most of the men nrc married, yet on
no account are they permitted to bring
their wives Into the village. This
banishment of the fair sex Is not due
to any freakishncss on the part of em
ployers of men. The reason Is a plife
lv business one.
There Is some hitch In the compa
ny's title to the 3000 acres on which
the village and mines are situated.
The law of the state of Utah permits
families squatting rights on the
claimed lands, and the company fear
that If the men were allowed to bring
their better halves to Sunnyslde,
claims might be established to their
cabins as permanent places of abode.
On the borders between China and
Russia In Asia, almost due south ot
Lake Balka'., is a good sized town
known as Malmetehln, which Is ex
clusively Inhabited by men. The place
has a considerable trade, and Is also
a military outpost. An old law for
bids Chinese women to live In this
territory. Indeed, they may not pas-,
the great wall of Kalkan or enter
Mongolia at nil.
Another far western settlement
which Is composed exclusively of men
Is Excelsior City, situated in a wild,
