WHITFIELD’S MUSICAL TALENTS —THE RETURN OF Ms. HAZEN TO SOCIETY AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. | —_——_— | When President Harrison was looking over the country for men of experience in public lat the same time possessing the ac- phical location, 3 prominently ciated with the prospective composition of | new ministry. If the republicans of the | © of Iowa and the chairman of the national committee had bad the selection Mr. Clarkson would have been a member of the present cabi- net and Mrs. Clarkson would have graced that tinguished circle at the capital. But consid- erations which the President could not control, chietly, there being too many pegs for the sup- ly of cabinet holes, forced him to omit the Towa statesman ia the distribution of first | places, but he hastened to avail himself of his | abilities and experience in an office more difti- cult to fill than cabinet minister, that of first | assistant postmaster-general. The detail work | of rehabilitating a civil army of over 60,000 | postmasters requires political and administra- tive generalship of the highest order. The so- ciety people of Washington will tind in the wife of the first assistant postmaster-general a lady who will in every way honor the social life of | the administration and will be a leader in the | second rank in the seale of statutory dignities. | Mrs. Clarkson was Miss Anna Clarinda Howell. med after her two aunts, and daugh- ter of Dr. J. G. Howell, formerly’ of Spring- | field, Ohio. She was born at Urbannain the | same state. where her father was practicing | medicine at the time of that domestic event. Owing tothe death of her mother she was ed by her aunt. Mrs. Judge Halsey, of | Springfield, Obio. Her father removed to Pella, a settlement founded by a company of Hollanders, and so named asa place of refuge commemorating an event of bible history. Upon reaching the age of fourteen. Miss | Howell, who had now grown to be a beautiful | girl, left the home of her childhood and joined her father at Pella, where he had built upa Inerative practice. She very soon after entered the Central university of Iowa founded by the Holland settlers, aud there acquired.a liberal education. ENGAGEMENT AND MARRIAGE. Dr. Howell having remarried, his second wife was cousin to Mr. Clarkson. It was through this circumstance that the young people met, and being brought frequently into each other's society, there grew up that mutual respect and confidence which often leads to love and mat- rimony. In 1867 their nuptials took place at Pella, but the young couple went to Des Moines to make their home. ere Mr. Clarkson and his wife were associated with the social life of the capital of that owing commonwealth. The original home of Mrs. Clarkson's ancestors was Virginia. Her mother, who was Eliza Hen- kle, was a daughter of Saul Henkle, one of the pioneers of Methodism in the west when Ohio was a wildernes THE ANCESTRAL STOCK was conspicuously identified with Lutheran and Wesleyan theology for several generations. Paul Henkle, a native of Rowan county, North Caro- lina, born in colonial days, 1754, was a descend. ant of Gerbardt. a court preacher in German; and one of the earliest ministers who came to America, settling at Germantown, Pa., in 1740. Paul's father removed to North Carolina, but in 1760, driven from his home by the hostility of the Catawba Indians, took refuge in the western part of Virginia. Paul was converted in 1776 by Whitield and ordained a Lutheran | preacher at Philadelphia in 1792. Being an ex- pert hunter and pioneer, he traversed North Carolina and Virginia, establishing churches. In the first decade of the century he made Jobn 8. Clark MRS.

His sacred labors, after all the dangers of frontier experiences, ended in peace at New- market, Virginia, in 182 Two out of three nephews, Moses, Saul and Eli, perpetuated the holy calling in the family. ‘The tirst. Moses Montgomery Henkle, born in Virginia in 1798. became an itenerant minister in 1519, as @ missionary to the Wyandotte In- dians, and preached the gospel in Ohio, Penn- sylvania, Kentucky and Alabama. He estab- lished # religious magazine, and in 1845 asso- 1 himself in the editorship of the Christian at Nashville. In 1847 he established Companion, and later taught in phia and Baltimore. During the civil war he passed through the lines and died in Virginia, while Grant's battalions were fight- ing the battles of the Wilderness. GRANDFATHER HENKLE. His brother Saul, Mrs. C ‘3 maternal in Nashville, Tenn., removed hio, towards the close of the yaarter of the century, having been or- dained for the ministry. He became one of the most famous itinerants of the primitive west- ern M. E. church im the United States. The ame of Saul Henkle was as familiar to the in- habitants of the young settlement spread over the vast region from the Appalachian range to the Mississippi as was the name of Wesley. her tr ther was the father of Dr. Eli . who represented one of the Baltimore districts in Congress with so much distinction, ian uncle of Mrs, Clarkson; ¢ ; Henkle. a well-known attorney of Washington, s# half brother of Mrs. Clarkson's mother, and bis sister.

THE DOMESTIC CIRCL General and Mrs. Clarkson have a family of remarkably handsome boys, Coker, the is eighteen, a graduate of Phillips demy, New Hampshire, in 1844; Har- old. sixteen, a student at the same institution, and Grosvenor, a manly boy of six. who has Jast arrived in Washington with the famil: Aurore de Exeter attaches from Towa. Mrs. Clarkson will visit their w home in a few days to dismantle it during their residence at the national capital. The newspaper property, the Iowa Stale By . which is owned by General Clarkson his brother, will be managed by the latter. It an interesting coincidence in General Clarkson's parentage that while his father was from Maine his mother, who was Elizabeth Goudy, was born in Brownsville, Washington county, Pa., the natal place of Mr. Blaine. ‘MRS. WHITFIELD, A gallant officer of the Union army at his bome in Cinciunati, recovering from wounds received in battle, was a welcome visitor in the household of James Campbell Morrison, A | Methodist minister, to Ohio. | one in early childhood and the other in early daughter, Florence Preston Morrison, was then but achiid. She admired the young officer for his brave deeds, and sympathized with him in his wounds. The officer went back to the war and returned with new laurels, After the war the yougg officer returned to peaceful pursuits, and was honored by his government with civil office in his native city. The child of the times of war, keeping pace with years, grew to maidenhood with every opportunity for a liberal education and the cultivation of her natural gifts. In 1882 Col. amuel Adams Whit- field, the young officer of the war, nd Florence Preston Morrison, the daughter of his old friend, were married in their native Cincmmnati. The Morrisons had a record of warlike deeds going back to the struggles for independence. Mrs. Whitfield on the paternal side is the great granddanghter of General Campbell, of revolutionary fame, and a native of Campbell county, Va. Her father, whose family is connected with the Prestons and the Breckinridzes of Kentucky, at the age of ten accompanied his own father, who was a Mrs. Whitfield’s father has been a resident of Cincinnati for nearly fifty years. He was, for a long time, associated in the hardware business with the late Peter Neff, formerly of Baltimore, and one of whose sons, Peter R. Neff, is president of the College of Music of Cincinnati. After her graduation Mrs. Whitfield passed three years in the study of vocal music. Pos- sessing a voice of rare melody and scope, she became one of the favorite singers among the music-loving people of Cincinnati. She is also an accomplished artist in oil and water from life, or in the production of original works, having been thoroughly trained under efficient masters. COL. WHITFIELD, who was removed by President Cleveland from the postmastership at Cincinnati, and was immediately appointed by the governor of Ohio a member of the board of public affairs of the city of Cincimnati, which he resigned to accept the office of second assistant postmaster-gen- eral, belongs to the same family from which sprang the celebrated George Whitfield, so widely known in England and America, and who closed his career in Mussachusetts. Whitfields came to New England in the early days of colonization. The father of the second assistant postmaster-general is still living, at the advanced age of ninety-one years, Col. Whitfield has the distinction of having been a captain at seventeen and lientenant-col- | onel at nineteen years of age, and therefore was among the youngest officers in the service. He rved five years and was three times wounded in action. Mrs. Whitfield will remain in Cincinnati for some weeks, caring for her two daughters, infancy. The wife of the second assistant post- master-general will be an enjoyable acquisition to the society of the capital, not only on ac- count of her affable manners, but for her mu- sical gifts. MRS, HAZEN. One year after his marriage, which took place in 1865, Abraham D. Hazen, a native of Easton, Pa., and graduate of Lafayette college. at that city. entered the Post-Oftice depart- mentasaclerk. He advanced through all the intermediate grades to third assistant post- master-general in 1877. After ten fi ice his resignation @vas accepted by a demo- cratic administration. and on the sécond anni- versary of that retirement he took the oath of oftice upon his unsolicited restoration to his old Pl The social experiences of Mra, Hazen have, therefore, taken in almost the whole range of | Her uniform kindness for the Yamilies of | departmental service. and consideration soc the clerical branches, and her quiet and unas- suming enjoyment of the official promotions bestowed upon her husband, have made her one of the most popular ladies at the capital ina large circle of friends, Mrs. Hazen is a native of Washington. father, Joseph Hendiey, was a highly respected merchant.

Some Odd and Beautiful Designs for Easter Offerings. A TOOTHSOME COCKTAIL FOR JOLLY BACRELORS— ‘MRS, ASTOR'S BLEAKFAST—RULES FOR PREPAR- ING EASTER EGGS AT HOME. From the New York Graphic. The correct and popular gift-giving season —that is, among the grown-up Four Hundred. Christmas is being again marked as chiefly a children’s festival, as it used to be, and the little ones receive their especial overflow of pres- ents then, but for the mature belles and beaux Easter is the time for the exchange of tender tokens. Of course, the natural and inevitable | Easter presents are candy and flowers, but | | | candy and flowers can be made the medium for giving about anything. Isaw an Easter present the other day in which the confectioner and the jeweler had | been forced into an unnatural partnership. It | consisted of two pretty bon-bons exact! i an ordinary hen’s egg. h had a yelk of gold inside, this yelk being a tiny jewel box that opened with a spring and disclosed a dia- mond ear-ring. The two candy eggs lay in a satin box. The novelty was in having the eggs | of candy. thereby preparing a surprise when they shall turn ont to be not all candy. Eggs as a receptacle for jewelry, that is silver eggs, china eggs, enamelled eggs, are as old as Easter itself, for all I know. The great idea in Easter gifts is to exercise your own ingenuity; to give it an Easter touch by designing something novel yourself, not so much in the gift itself, which can be anything you like, from a parasol to a folding bed, as in or the little details of the temporarily ornamenting its The proper time to give Easter presents is at breakfast. Breakfast is the Easter meal as much and at each plate are each person's presents. Not necessarily all of them, however, The hostess frequently has some design in the cen- ter of the table made up of tokens for each per- son, as, for instance. Mrs. Morgan Dix last year had on her breakfast table a beautifully de- signed white candy bantam hen, with china eggs under her, each of which’ contained a trinket. The numerous progeny of Dr. Dix were permitted to consume the hen, or a portion of er, after their meal of oatmeal and fish, which Was an unusual treat, for they are generally | confined with military precision to a strictly hygienic diet. Mrs, William Astor has ordered several hun- dred dollars’ worth of flowers for the Easter jecoration of her house, and the arrangement | is to be rather novel, as lilies are to be used | azalias for a touch of color. The breakfast however, is to be ornamented wholly with white and ‘pink azalias, because they h ing no odor are particularly agreeable as table flowers, At another Easter breakfast the ex- periment is to be made of having eggs and eggs only, in varied forms, as the basis of the meal. Happily the ingenions hostess thinks this ar- rangement does not preclude the indulgence in shad roe, At a bachelor's breakfast to be given by Harry Watrous at his studio in the Sherwood building, cocktails are to be served ina unique | manner; the inside of a number of eggs will be blown out through tiny holes, and then the cocktail will be put in, sealed up, and the eggs will be broken by the guests, after the manner of those ancient savages who eat their soft-boiled ones out of atumbler, Ostrich and Emu ‘s—that is, the shells—are the things | furnished by jewelers for table decoration; they are mounted on coral, gold. and silver stands, and can be used for a variety of purposes. There is no reason why rich people, though, should have Easter all to themselves, There are lots of pretty seasonable things one can do and make and liave that are inexpensive enough, There is no more fun to be had than by the sim- 38; and a basket of prettily dyed eggs any | table cun afford Easter morning, and they are enough to give the proper air to the occasion, and to make everybody there feel that he or she is having # part in the world’s celebration of the day. Don't go and buy them colored; the doing of ourself will give you as good a time as a jow'een spree, You can make the wine- colored eggs by boiling them with logwood chips; if you put in enough chips you can make your eggs black, but a few black eggs will be all you want. A little experimenting, and you will be able to get the shade you want. For brown eggs, boil them in strong coffee. Boil them with onion peelings, and you have them yellow. Cochineal is a treasure for the Easter- egg dyer, as it is for the fancy confectione with it you can make your eggs any shade from palest ee to the most brilliant crimson, and all in the purest, brightesttints. Other shades you can achieve by sewing your egg up in silk the desired shade, and putting it in warm water in which a lump of soda has been dissolved and then boiling for half an hour. Variegated eggs can be made with plaid silk or with different pieces of silk sewed together fora wrapping. When the silk is removed, allow the eggs to cool gradually, and, if you want them to shine, you can rub them over with batter. Grease can be used to produce effects calculated to make the simple marvel as much as that old monarch, whoever he was, did as to how the apple got inside the dumplin Wherever you put grease on an egg before it is put in the dye, the dye don’t take, and in that spot the egg retains its natural color. The name of the intended recipient can thus be written on, and will come out quite distinct. Eggs can be gilded and silvered easily, though the result will appear something won- derful and expensive. Boil the eggs, and then when they are quite hard rub them’ all over with painters’ size. Procure some gold or silver dust, such as bookbinders use, put it in asaucer or plate, roll the eggs gently in i one ata time, till the egg is covered. For s1 more gorgeous effects, the egg can be first col- ored, and then any design, name or date can be cut on it in the size and the dust. Goldand silver leaf are sometimes used, but they are much more troublesome to manage. There is no law in the nature of things why Easter eggs should be made a hideous combina- tion of colors, nor that to look at a basket of them is enough to give a rhinoceros a toothe ache, When I, asachild, use to dye Easter eggs—it is safe to admit’ that it was before Oscar Wilde's day, is it not?—my idea of a triumph was to have as many and as violent colors as possible, and the result was something to chill the blood. Now thereis room for the exercise of any amount of taste in getting up Easter eggs, A ribbon effect isto be the aim of one Faaket which is to be prepared by a professional con- fectioner for Mrs. Brander Matthews. The basket will be large and flat, and the eggs will encircle, row after row, one in the center, all lying on the lovely tinted, gray-green southern moss; the colors will all be wsthetic, delicate shades, and the result is expected to resemble the parterre of maidens upon which the curtain rise# in “Patience.” These delicate shades are just the things most easily achieved by the amateur, and all sorts of pretty arrangements can be made with ea te my mind the basket I saw last year sent to Mrs. Frederick Freer, the wife of the painter, by her friend, the wife of another ainter, Mrs. Walter Shirlow, was even pret- ier. I don’t know whether or not it was of home manufacture, but it mright easily have been. It was lined with smilax, and on the smilax were — a dozen green eggs of every shade from the lightest to the darkest. It was as charniingly fresh and spring-like as a bunch of mignonette. You see in this sort of scheme you don’t suffer by your eggs coming out mot- tled, which is all the better. Moxtiy Bawx.

The Difficulty of Making a Choice— How it Looks to a Waiter. From the New York Tribune. ¢Two young women enter a well-known up- town restaurant for luncheon, As they sit down one of them begins to tell how hungry she is, while her companion echoes her senti- ments with fervor. “I thought we should never get here,” says the first. “I am actually faint,” says the second, “and Iam going to eat and not talk a bit.” Each of them seizes a bill of fare and begins to look it over. The first runs her eye up and down the sheet, evidently in doubt. At times she pauses for a moment as if she had decided what to order, but she seems to find nothing satisfactory. Her friend has begun an entirely different examination. Start- ing at the top of the list, she goes down it slowly, examining everything carefully. It seems as if she were sure to hit upon a choice. When she reached the last word on the last page. she looks up and sighs, ‘What are you going to order?” she asks with an air of resig- nation. ‘I am sure I don’t know,” is the dis- ouraging reply. The waiter, who has been standing stock still, moves his feet a little uneasil; “Let's begin on the soups, Jen,” says one. and they fall to studginy the soups. After a pause, the one addressed as “Jen” suggests in an apolo- getie manner mock-turtle soup. “Oh,” says the other, “I thought tomato would be nice.” “I don’t care, go long as it is something,” is the repl. ‘ow, Jen, you don’t want tomato. You only say that to please me.” “I do, too; you know I do, “You might be frank about it.” coolly. nee isno reason why we shouldn't have oth.” The waiter wearily changes from one leg to the other. “Well, then, I'll order mock-turtle.” “But I don’t want mock-turtle; you know I don't. I won't have it.” The waiter moves off silently just in time for them to turn and see his back. “Isn't this vexing,” says the one who had suggested mock-turtle soup. “I shall make a The waiter, hav- ing noticed that they are looking for him, hur- ries across the roo “Will you bring us some mock-turtle?” says the one who wanted tomato soup, severely. “No, no, don’t,” protested the other. " “To- mato, served for two.” The waiter looks on helplessly, but does not make a start. “Now, Jen, don't be perverse.” “You are perverse,” Then cones a dignified pause, followed by a respectiul cough to remind them that their order is still hanging fire. “Then,” says one. “let's just have some plain consomme;” and consomme it is. After the waiter returns with their order each says that she hopes that the other is satis- fied. The waiter goes away and returns three | times to get the rest of the order. He tries the shuffling of feet and the changing of positions, but they have finished their soup now and are discussing gowns. Finally the waiter has re- both look up. Jh, what shall we have next?” asks “Jen.” “It’s such bother to order. I wish papa were here. He doesn’t have any trouble.” “I don't feel very hungry now, any way.

The waiter takes the check and the money and starts for the cashier's desk. again, a bow. “Oh, Jen, now you will have to get the bill changed.” “Jen” hunts around for her purse, finds it and begins to look for the bill. “I know Ihave it,” she says, “but where is it?” After going carefully over all the bills she remembers that she spent the ten-dollar bill down-town, “Here's five, any way,” she says with great sat i ‘tion, and the waiter goes off again. Ha ing gotten their change they talk for five minutes more, trying to decide whether they shall go to look at the hat after all or go up to get “Amy.” They finally decide upon the hat, and as they move toward the door the waiter picks up the punched quarter they lett for him In a moment he is back he quarter is punched,” he says with | and leans against the wall with a sigh of relief. 62" The way to advertise is to put your announcement where it will be seen by the people you want to reach.

How a Tar Heel’s Mormon Trip Was Interrupted. From the Detroit Free Press, While waiting at a station in North Carolina one day I was joined by a man who carried an old-fashioned satchel on his shoulder, and who had evidently walked many miles through the mud. He was fully sixty years of age, scrawny and homely, and he simply nodded to me and sat down on a bale of cotton. In about ten minutes along came a woman in homespun, fully his age and about as homely. She had also had along walk. She nodded to me and sat down on another cotton bale. Not a word was said between us for ten minutes. Then, as the whistle of the train was heard in the dis- tance, she said to the man: “Then, Jim, you ar’ gwine off ter jine the Mormons?” “Iam, Hannah,” he replied. “An? you won't take me?” “No.” “And it won't do no good to argufy?” “Not a bit.” “Wall, then, good-bye to you.” She started forward with extended arm, but Cee his hand and seized the satchel and ung it thirty feet away.
