THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON. ‘Written for Tax Evastne Sr, ETIQUETTE AND MANNERS. What To Do and What Not To Do in Society. A NUMBER OF PUZZLING QUESTIONS ANSWERED— WHY A GENTLEMAN PRECEDES A LADY IN PUB- Lic PLACES—THE UNENVIABLE HABIT OF SPIT- TING—POLITENESS TO LADIES IN STREET CARS. The following questions have been selected for answer this week: Should the gentleman precede or follow the lady in Passing down the aiqle to a seat in church? We have answered this question before, but will repeat our answer. Ata theater or concert the gentleman necessarily precedes the lady, because he knows, or is supposed to know, where the seats are situated, and the way thereto; at church the gentleman precedes the lady because it used to be his province to open the pew door. The gentleman in all such cases is the conductor, the guide; he leads in order that he may clear away obstacles, in case of a crowd to obtain a passage, to act always as pro- tector. To come behind is the duty of a proper thing for children to say in re- PSpo” 1 questions asked them by ‘th male and tem: There is no term that is applicable to both sexes or that will do for either sex. If two persons ask a childa question at the same moment a breach of manners has occurred, aud one or the other should withdraw his or her question. But it is not n ¢hild always to say “sir” or “‘ma‘am;” in fact, wccording to the rules of the best circles, child should be taugh' es, papa &c., and often plain *‘y no” may be used if the tone is respectful. The Americans are accused of using “sir” to excess, its over-frequent introduction in con- Yersation being thought vulgar. THE HIGH HAT QUESTION. What are the rules in regard to wearing the hat? Is ft proper to wear a silk hat with a sack coat? With Americans great license prevails in wearing the hat. In England, on the contrary, the rules are very strict, and certain modifica- tions of them have been adopted by a few club men here. According to the English dictum, a silk hat (that isa bigh hat) should be worn with a frock but never with a sack coat, or jacket, as this article is designated by Eng- lishmen. The derby hat, as we call it, must be worn only with a sack coat; but neither the sack coat nor the derby hat is admissable on the promenade or in the “city,” these articles being limited to the train or country. A soft hat should never be worn except when travel- ing or on sporting occasions.. It would be ab- surd to follow the English strictly in wearing the hat, but they are worth heeding; and allow- ing for differences of climate, may be advafi- tageously followed in some instances, Let us at least not wear a silk hat with a sack coat. What is your opinion of wearing celluloid collars and cuts? No lady or gentleman should wear anything but linen collars or cuffs. Celluloid collars are about as vulgar as paper collars, which men so much used a few years ago. Linen is the only proper wear, aud that should be white and im- maculately clean. VISITING IN THE COUNTRY. I sm invited in the country fora few days. How Jong would it be proper to stay under such an invita- tion? jot more than three or at the utmost four A visitor to a country house should al- ways remember that other visitors may be ex- pected at a definite day, and therefore should Rot postpone departure beyond the allotted time. Are white or'spotted linen shirts preferable for sum- mer wear ip the country? Fancy colored linen shirts have no advantage over shirts of white linen, inasmuch as they soil just as easily. Colored woolen shirts of fine texture are appropriate for boating, yacht- ing, pedestrian excursions, picnics, &c. Hence, for all occasions when white linen is not used, they form a suitable substitute. But decorated linen is neither useful nor tasteful, however fashionable it may be. My friend from Buitimore always calls her overshoes “gums.” right? * Is this And in other places overshoes are commonly called rubbers or India rubbers, which is about as bad. Call these articles ‘overshoes.” There is no necessity of designating the mate- rial of which an article of the kind is made. OUR NATIONAL HABIT. We have received not a few letters comment- ing upon the almost universal masculine habi of spitting. One correspondent has favored us with an account of an experience in a New York horse car, which we wish all the tobacco chewers and spitters in the country would prow fit thereby. “There were five of them, three on the oppo- site of the car and twoon my side. All were uncomfortably near, and each man was indus- triously occupied in decorating the floor of the vehicle with discharges of saliva. Three were tobacco chewers, and their copious coffee- colored expectorations soon made unsavory pools at their feet. The other two er a@white saliva which was only a little less copious and nauseating than the other variety. So persistent andso zealous were these five men in this occupation that it looked asif they might have been hired to sit there and spit at so much an hour. “My cheeks tingled at first with indignation but presently the whole thing began to impress me as amusing. Were not these men simply exercising their natural privilege of expecto- rating where and as much as they pleased? They paid their fare, and a car is a public vehicle in which everybody is as good as any- body else; and what is the floor anyway but something to tread upon and spit upon? ‘Their reply to any protest { might have made would j seat fhadeay do nppadal etically expressed to the effect that if I didn’t like their doings I might get out and walk or hire acoach. Totell them that they were i the car floor very nasty and that everybody who came in would have to tread in the filth; that women's skirts would fall into it; that the right their fares gave them was to travel in the car and not to soil it at their pleasure—to have told themall this would have excited their amazement and their ire. ‘The right to spit was to them as natural as the right to breathe; they had never doubted it and had never heard it questioned, and yet they were not people of the low- est clase. They were dressed _tolerably well, and considered themselves, no doubt, respectable citizens, But how did these respectable citizens abide in their own houses? Did they cover the floors of the passages, the stairways, the dining-room, the parlor with stains that the most insensible would scarcely regard as ornamental? Did they snd their wives and their daughters always sit down with their feet in a pool of tobacco juice? And then did they spit all day long as persistently and energetically as they were doing onthisoccasion? I dared not think of their homes, or follow them in their voca- tious—to see and bear them for a duration of ten minutes was more than enough. “Tam afraid that the thought of man asa spitter,as a chewer of tobacco.as a being cease- lessly ejecting unsavory streams from his mouth, is fatal to not a few visions of the race, In apprereheusion how like a god—that is when he seizes upon his tobacco pouch. In action how like an angel—thatis when be squirts his tobacco juice over your newly- poushed boots. “In trath, vile habits like tobacco chewing and spitting kill not only virtue in those who indalge in them, but in who are com- peiled to witness them. “This habit is altogether American—not merely the habit of tobacco chewing, but the habit among men who do not chew tobacco of ceaselessly spitting. The climate is the cause, some say. But American women do not spit more than the women of other countries, and therefore climate cannot be the cause, for cli. lmate is nO respecter of sexes, We of America are a nation of spitters, and are recognized as such the world over. It is not an agreeable reputation, The spittoon is almost an unknown article elsewhere; here it is fairly a national emblem. In many | oa of the country its presence is most revolting. ““Love thy neighbor as thyself’ is the scrip- tural injunction. With all my heart, with one mental reservation, He must not be a chewer @f whacco.” POLITENESS TO LADIES.

The introduction of swimming eal D.C., SATURDAY, MAY 25, 188 FOR THE GOOD OF THE PUBLIC, Washington’s Crying Need of Free Baths. HOW SHE IS BEHIND OTHER CITIES—BOTs WHO EAGERLY LISTEN FOR THE SUNSET GUN—SCENES ALONG THE RIVER FRONT DURING SUMMER EVEN- INGS—HOW WHARF-RATS ELUDE THE POLICE. Just as soon as the temperature of the water gets about 65 degrees the happiest days of the small boy's life have arrived. It's swimming time, and that means a great deal to him. It fills him with thoughts of hours in the water, of leaps from dizzy heights, and baths in cool pools haunt his dreams and makes the musty school-room a bore, His opportunity for a good bath in the streams about Washington is, however, exceedingly limited, and there are few places where it may be had, and is as stolen sweets with him, for the ever-present police- man is always on the lookout. It is indeeda poor specimen of a small boy, though, that can’t escape a policeman, and rarely does the representative of the law make acapture. Nowand then he hands a bundle of clothing to the property clerk at headquarters, the spoils of a raid on the wharf-rats, but the owner cares little for his clothes, and, quickly swimming over to the flats, he sits on a rock, significantly putting his thumb on his nose and giving his fingers a peculiar twist, and there he shiveringly awaits the approach of darkness, while the policeman marches off in semi- triumph with a poor little bundle of clothes, Then, when daylight has melted into evening, the littie fellow makes his way home, taking antage of every shadow and avoiding every passer by. When he arrives home he is sure of something, and, needless to say, that something isn’t relished. It has no effect upon him, how- ever, for the next day he is on hand at the river as promptly as ever. WHEN THE HAPPY HOUB ARRIVES. The sunset gun that booms out upon the still twilight every evening as old Sol sinks slowly behind the western horizon means a great deal to the Washington small boy during the hot, sultry days of the summer. It is anxiously waited and longed for by groups of youngsters all along the river front, and its echoes have ceased to reverberate among the hills of the Virginia shore when the water 1s liter- ally alive with boys diving, swimming, splash- ing, and extracting the pleasures from out- door life that only a small boy car. One after another, like so many gigantic frogs, they spring from old piles,the yard-arms ot istances that would make a man dizzy, wholly unconscious of danger. The exuberance of youth is upon them, and as they shoot through the air their voices sound high and shrill above everything, and as their merry laughter falis upon the ear of the saunterer along the river front a picture of his boyhood days floats be- fore him when the world seemed one great Vane ground and he was shielded from the hard kuocks of life by tender, loving hands. RIVER FRONT 6CENES, The river front in the afternoon is well worth a visit, and it does one good to linger a moment and watch the boys. The policemen are powerless to stop him after the sound of sunset gun has floated up from the arsenal, and no one enjoys the fun more than the good- natured man in blue and brass as be stands | | } twirling his club. Now and then he has a duty to perform, however. for the color line is strictly drawn among the boys, and sometimes | results in trouble. Asa general thing the two | classes keep to themselves and respect an un- written bill of rights, but now and then some reckless exponent of the fifteenth amend- ment will venture ont with his white-limbed brothers, and the result is an aquatic battle, which generally results in numerous black eyes, bruised noses and scratches, THE NEED OF FREE BATHS. The necessity of free baths in Washington was never more evident than it is to-day, and every visitor to the city is surprised to learn that we have no such conveniences, This cai hardly be said of any other city in the country, while few are so well adapted for their estab- hshment, Though no modern house is now | built without its bath-room, there still remain many relics of the old days without this neces- sary improvement, and the tenants in many cases have to go for weeks without anything better than a sponge bath, a poor substitute, but better by far than nothing. There are, it is true, a number of bath-houses in the city, but, with few exceptions, they are of the most expensive description, and none but the rich can afford the luxury of becoming regular pa- sins, however, cannot and will never take the place of the swimming bath. There is nothing that will brace a man up so much, nothing that will make him feel that life is worth living, nothing so refreshing and invigorating as asudden plunge into pure running water. This he cannot have within any reasonable distance about Washington. Its all very well for the small boy to leap from the docks, but it won't do for the man, and he would have to walk a couple of miles to reach a place where it may be enjoyed. It has been urged against the introduction of free swimming baths along the river front that the colored people would monopolize them. This difficulty can be easily obviated, by having separate bath houses, and both races would be better satisfied to have it so. It has also been suggested that a swim- ming bath be placed in the Eastern branch, just above the navy-yard and between that and the arsenal, for the convenience of the people in that section of the city, and this bath would, doubtlessly, be well patronized. Then one might be located on the shore just back of the Washington monument, to be used by citizens living in the central northwest section. Georgetown people might have their bath house built just above the Columbia boat house. Many people, however, would prefer tocross the bridge and have the bath on the Virginia side. THESE THREE BATHS would adequately supply the city with an in- stitution which has been found very successful in other places, and they are almost necessary to the health of any place. Bathing is neces- sary to health, and but few people can afford the time and money required by a trip up or down the river as often as would be well for baths in Washington would give pleasure to a great many people and meet with the approval of anyone interested in the health of the city. A BIVER-MAN'S VIEWS, “Yes, sir, I think itsadarn shame that the boys don’t have no place to swim,” said an old fisherman to a Star reporter a few days ago, as the two were discussing the necessity of a public bath house. “These hyar boys don't have no peace of mind. They come down to the river to take a wash and have to hide their clothes and keep a scout looking out for ther police. I tell you, sir, itsashame that the people that wants to be clean is so harrassed. But ——— in all the boys manage to get thar some how or other, In my time they wern't disturbed, and many a nice swim I’ve bad around these wharves in good old days befo’ the war. No, thar ain't many cases of drown- ing ‘round hyar,” answered the old fisherman to aquestion. “You see the boys learn to swim befo’ they goin around the wharves, ‘cause the water is upwards of 25 foot deep. BIS STORY. “Do you see that ar pile of lumber over to de right? Well, it was right in front of that that I saw de most painful sight that ever fell in my path, and I have been followerin’ the water ail my life. I'll tell you how it was, My boat. the ‘Galoway,’ Capt. Jim Nevitt (some called him Baldy for short), was laying about 50 yards from shore, with a load of lumber, and it was just about sundown, I was settin’ on the cabin splicing & rope when my attention waa calted to a gang of boys on the dock awaitin’ for the sundown-gun to go off before jumpin’ over- board, "Mong the party war a bright little shaver "bout eight year old. I war attracted to him on ‘count his bravery; he would climb 4} to the very mizzen-top of that pile (and it seems to me it war taller then), and overboard he'd jump, amid the cries of the rest of the boys. No one would foller him, they war skeered, and I tell you the sight of that bright pluck made me go back an’ wish I ch & son, Well, to make # long story short, I finished the splice, and went below to see about things. When I come up thar were a crowd on the shore around’ somethin’. WI in thunder is that, says I, so taking the skiff I pulled over to the place. ' Gittin’ up, as quick as possible, and pushin’ thro’ the crowd saw the little fellow, the brave, “ manly one that I ” jist “told yer ‘bout stretched out cold “and lifeless. He was drowned.” As the old man finished he brushed away atear. ‘That ain't all,” he con- tinued, wiping his eyes with an old bandana. “It bad enough to see bim drowned, but the way it was done was the thing. It ‘pears that he climbed up in the cross-trees of a schooner near at hand and attempted to dive, He never came up alive. One of the larger boys went down after him, and after some trouble found him with a sharp stick a-stuck in his head, and he deader'n a .

BISHOP. Views of an Army Surgeon upon the Matter. THE PHENOMENA OF CATALEPSY FROM A PROFES- SIONAL STANDPOINT — ELEMENTARY FACTS ABOUT THE HUMAN SYSTEM—WHAT THE KNIFE WOULD DISCOVER, To the Editor of Tae Evenrxe Sr. Noting your very conservative editorial para- graph in Saturday's Srar, and also the state- ment in the New York Herald to the effect that the friends of Mr. Bishop, the deceased mind- reader, should lay the facts before a grand jury, Iam constrained to offer some suggestions upon the subject through the columns of your valuable paper. The phenomena of catalepsy were investi- gated as long ago as 1850 by Braid, of Edin- bugh, He records « large number of well authenticated cases among the East Indians, Men have voluntarily gone into this cataleptic state; have been buried alive. and have re- mained in a sealed and guarded grave for many days, and have then been disinterred and resuscitated from apparent death, Such cases are about as common as death froma stroke of lightning, and, as in Mr. Bishop's case, they are usually the result of some peculiarity of the nervous organization, heightened and magnified by the habit of voluntarily inducing this cataleptic condition, The vital processes are not actually stopped; they go on, but slowly, ELEMENTARY FACTS ABOUT CIRCULATION. A hasty consideration of some few clementary facts connected with the circulation may serve to show how far catalepsyqdiffers from death, and how small is the chance that a living body should be carved by the scalpel of the anat- omist. Life may be considered as a constant combustion. In'the blaze of an ordinary fire oxygen is tuken up from the atmosphere, and combines with the chemical elements of the p carbon di-oxide, better known as as. This comparatively simple process occurs at a high temperature and with great rapidity. HOW FUEL IS SUPPLIED. ¥ Inthe human organism fuel is supplied by onr food and drink, the proximate principles of | which, the peptonized albumenoids, the ptyal- ized and fermented starches and sugars. d the emulsified fats, are conv d from the stomach and intestines to the tissues, dissolved or suspended in the serum of the blood. i oxygen is supplied by the air which we inspire Inthe lungs it comes into almost direct con- tact with the blood, and is absorbed by the red corpuscles of the vital finid. ‘These microscopic cells, the red blood cor- puscles, give up their oxygen to all the tissues of the body, and take from them, the usua product of combustion, carbon di-oxide; and returning to the lungs, the carbonic acid gas gotten rid of with the expired air. The re- mainder of the waste of the tissues (the ashes of the fire) are conveyed in the serum to the proper organs of excretion, We thus see that the blood is at once the feeder and consumer of all the tissues. [t is brought to the right side of the heart by the veins, thence pumped into the lungs, where it is decarbonized and oxygenated. and is re- turned to the left side of the he: whence it is sent out through the arteries, which ter- minate in the fine capillaries, and’ they com-| plete the circle by uniting to form the veins, THE CATALEPTIC STATE. ow, in this state of trance or catalepsy, this P of waste and repair continues just the same, but more slowly and at still lower tem- perature, The fires are merely banked, they are not putoat. It is a condition resembling the hibernation of serpents or of certamm warm- blooded animals, The cataleptic breathes but slowly, his blood is pumped but slowly by the heart. and he lives upon hia own tissues, thus gradually wasting for the time. Such a condi- tion looks very like death, but a most careful and thorough examination, such as would be made in a case where the body was that of a known cataleptic, would undoubtedly result in the detection of a slight flutter of the heart or movement of the chest in inspiration. As we have seen, the blood is the carrier of all the principles of life to the tiasifes, and takes away trom them the results of their waste. WHEN DEATH RESULTS, At the moment when either process is stopped once and for all the man is dead. There is not any change in the individual cells of most of the organisms; but, nevertheless, the silver cord is loosed, and the golden bowl is broken at the fountain. Now death always comes from the brain, the heart, or the lungs (“the tripod of life"), for the destruction of the functions of any one of these three will stop the circulation ot the blood, that is to say, result in the death of the organism. In the brain lie the nerve centers, which animate the heart, and their paralysis will stop that organ, generally at once, but it may continue to throb haltingly for a little time after the destruction of the brain centers from its own inherent energy, as it has within itself ganglia which are partially inde- pendent of the superior centers, and as the heart, more especially in cold-blooded animals, possesses an essential irritability which willcause it to beat even after removal from the body. If the heart is stopped either by the over- powering of the nerve centers in the brain or y the formation of a clot within itself the blood supply to both lungs and brain is shut off as well as that to the body at large. If the lungs become 80 congested or disabled that they fail to permit the interchange of car- boniec acid and oxygen the man is Kitiea by carbonic acid poisoning. In other words, he suffocates, and when the blood inthe nerve centers at the base of the brain become sur- charged with this poison those centers are also destroyed, and their destruction stops both lungs and heart, ‘The point to which I wish to call attention is the inter-dependence of tl three vital organs, If any one of them is injured beyond repair the other two may continue a mechan- ical action for a very short time, but the death of one is the actual death of them all. Hence if the attending physicians in this case of Mr. Bishop can show such an injury to any one of these three they are at the worst guilty only of carelessness, but surely not of any grave fault, WHAT THE KNIFE WOULD sow. But although the signs of death are gener- ally so evident and apparent even to the un- professional observer, the use of the knife upon the supposed corpse renders the proof about as positive as any factinthe range of human experience well may be. The arteries, having elastic coats, contract and force the blood into the veins as soon as the heart's action ceases to fill them, and hence are found empty after death, Now, if os making an incision there was no arterial haemorrhage, it showed at once that the cirgulation had stopped, andas Ihave endeavored to show, when the circulation has stopped the life bas stopped. And itis to be presumed that unusual care must have been employed in the case, and that the slightest arterial haemorrhage must have arrested the hand of the operator. A CASE IN POINT. The only instance of @ mistake of this kind having occurred, which has ever come to my knowledge, was in the case of the Abbe Privost, and that occurred in 1763. He was stricken with apoplexy, and almost immediately after- ward his body was ordered to be opened. To the horror of the operator a shriek from his subject showed that he was still alive. ‘The ex- amination had proceeded so far, however, that the unfortunate abbe died of the injurivs re- ceived at the hands of the surgeon. We thus see that such an occurrence, while possible, is extremely rare, and it is fair to sup- jose that the progress of medical science has ae sufficient render it impossible that three doctors should together make such a ter- rible mistake. The fact that the patient was a known cataleptic must have rendered them doubly careful, and they must hay e doubly sure before beginning the exami. tion, In short, they may have erred in mal ing the post mortem without proper authority, but the notion that their man was not properly and inevitably dead—that they killed him—is absurd, THE BENEFIT OF A POST MORTEM. It seems to be a general opinion that a mere useless curiosity led to the making of this post mortem, In connection it leptic tendency both as his friends and of profit to himself, such a con- dition would generally not be regarded as unalloyed blessing, but as a constant source of alarm and danger and a earnest medical attention. ery work of all rational treatment is a derstanding of the exact condition eased organ, and in the domain system particularly the much to teach, not only of interest fession but of benefit to the amination of of coroner in this case who has made a mortem wy ® post mortem, and that several days atc the teak ohecte to ni ould be re- } As the years of membered that while Mr, Bishop used his cata- | As brightens about source of pleasure to | As the g! an | “Boys will be roper subject for | If amy eben Written for Tar Evextno Star. HOME, SWEET HOME! The Immortal Song Written by a Poet Without a Home. THE PLACE WHERE IT WAS COMPOSED—A PLANTA- TION ON THE EASTERN BRANCH WHERE PAYNE BAD SELECTED A SITE FOR A DWELLINGQ—A STORY NOW TOLD FOR THE FIRST TIME, Some things there are which by a common instinct mankind hold sacred. Among these are the scenes of heroic deeds, the precincts of patriot graves, and the birthplace of sublime thoughts, in proof of which need only be men- tioned such names as Lexington, Mt, Vernon, and Independence hall, And within the Dis- trict of Columbia there is a spot which the American people, if familiar with its associa- tions, would not deem unworthy of mention in connection with those named, Half a century ago George W. Talburtt, then young and unmarried, was the owner by inher- itance of a plantation of 231 acres, lying just across the east branch of the Potomac from Washingtom, his fee simple domain touching the river at a point opposite the navy-yard. Here he lived in elegant leisure, having about 100 slaves, and, to digress for @ moment, the visitor may still see near his home a row of graves, from which are pointed out the partic- | ular resting places of some more distinguished than their companions for humble virtues, One is remembered as the “coloréd mammy” of a person since raised to some eminence, while another is revered for an intimacy with several family generations. This young man, possessed of case and affluence, was A BOON COMPANION OF JOHN HOWARD PAYNE, whose dust has since become so sacred. The old home still stands, as it then stood, in an Eden bower on the bank of the river, and here, under a venerable chestnut tree, sitting on a rustic seat that encircled its trunk, Payne and Talburtt used to drink their mint julep, sing | their merry songs and talk of the lives they were to lead, Talburtt had promised Payne that whenever he wanted a home, it should be built for him on the plantation, and they would spend their bachelor lives together. Much of the old plantation is now within the modern ) suburban village of Anacostia, and on an eleva- tion that commands a view of the national apitol and its surroundings which quite aVishes the eve with its beauty, etands the house, now owned and occupied by Mr. H. A. Griswold, built in fulfillment of t] romise, The site was selected by F departing on his foreign 1 ssion, but he never | returned to enjoy the home of which he sung; and thus ae d from his vow of celibae: Mr. Taiburtt afterward married and himself | occupied the new house, in which children | of the vill: non, wide | the chiet e, is the mother of J, Harry Shan- ly known as the juvenile orator, But point of interest is yet to be told, for 18 | notwithstanding the claim that “Home, Sweet Home” was written in Tunis or in a Londoa garret, ‘THE ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT, in the handwriting of the illustrious author himself, and bearing his own interlineations, is still in the possession of the family—Mr. Talburtt, having died in 1965—and it was on the rustic seat under the chestnut tree, on the bank of the east branch of the Potomac, so near the mouth as to be practically on the main river, and a little more than a mile east of south from the capitol building, that John Howard Payne, with his own inspired genius | and an aid-de-camp of mint julep, drafted this | immortal composition. The rustic seat, held as a precious heir-loom, is preserved in the attic of the old home; and the chestnut tree, now partly dead, with its top cut away and much of its bark chipped off as mementoes, | still marks the birth-place of this song, that will live while the English tongue is spoken or a thatched roof covers the head of an humble in- habitant of earth, —_—>—___—_ Written for Tar Ev!

During the recently ended social season when the retiring leaders were vieing with each other in giving gorgeous entertainments and setling elaborate tables, the chef of the Stan- ford mansion tickled the palates of the guests on a dinner occasion and set their tongues to wagging about a delicious soup most daintily served. Every one present was sipping it and discussing its excellence unconscious of what they were eating until some one curiously in- clined ventured to inquire what it was. It was real Chinese bird’s nest soup, a culinary concoction which, if made and served as they are wont to make and serve it in the flowery king- dom, attests the fine diserimination of the ori- ental gastronome—in this line of delicacies at least. As Senator Stanford employs a Chi- nese cook the service was doubtless original, THE SOUP I8 MADE from the real nest of the birds. These birds are bats or swifts, much like the American swallow, and congregate in large numbers in caves mostly along the coasts of China and British North Borneo. The nests are made from little fish and seaweed taken from the ocean in the spring of the year and a soft fungoid growth that incrusts the limestone in dam; places, about an inch thick, dark outside an: perfectly white inside. This latter the birds take in their mouths and draw out in a filament backward and forward like a caterpillar weav- ing its cocoon. The nests are gathered entirel; by candle-light at a height of several hundre feet, and though these caves have been worked several hundred years there seems to be no ap- parent diminution of the supply. THE AUTHENTIC RECIPE, as given by the Chinese cooks, is as follows: Take six bird’s nests and soak over night in cold water. Inthe morning wash clean in fresh waterand then steam for six hours. After steaming, pick out all feathers, retaining the juice for the soup. The stock of the soup is then made from either chicken or veal. In this is puta few pigeon eggs, and the season- ing is then a matter of judgment with the cook, —_——— “Boys Will be Boys.” e made assur- | “Boys will be boys.” We resent the old saying, Current with men; Let it be heard, in excuse for’ our straying, ever again!

MARRIAGES IN HIGH LIFE. Distinguished Persons who will be Wedded in the Near Future. EX-GECRETARY BAYARD AND HIS PRORPRCTIVE BRIDE—THE APPROACHING MARRIAGE OF 3US- ‘TICE GRAY AND THE LATE JUSTICE MATTHEWS" DAUGHTER—WILL SENATOR ALLISON WED? The fashionable circles of the capital are just | now on the tip-toe of expectancy over announce- ments and rumors of marriages in high life during the approaching summer and autumn. The first scene in this play in real life, of Cupid among the jurists and statesmen, will be the nuptials of that distinguished supreme expo- nent of the law, Justice Horace Gray, to Miss Jean Matthews, the daughter of his recently- deceased brother on the bench, on June 6. Owing to the sad consummation of Justice Matthews’ long illness the wedding will be rigidly ceremonia! and confined to the imme- diate relatives and the families of the court. The wedding ceremony will take place in the Spot of the late justice’s mansion, which has been the scene of several weddings in the family. The prospective bride is one of the most attractive and intellectual young ladies in Washington. She is well advanced in young womanhood, of fine presence, and” will’ grace the’ court circle with her many social gifts. The prospective groom, who is sixty-two years of age. is the largest member of the court. being 6 feet 4 inches in height, and one of its ablest members. The justice was chief justice of his state before he took his seat on the national supreme bench. He is of Revolutionary stock. His grandfather entered the struggle just after Bunker Hill, as a drummer boy, Being the object of a slight- ing remark by a tory descendant in after years, referring to his partin the struggle, he said. “True, Iwas _a drummer boy, but didI not drum well? I aroused a nation into life.” A REVOLUTIONARY HERO, Miss Matthews, on her father’s side, is also descended from a young hero of the Revolu- | tion, The late Justice Matthews’ maternal | grandfather was Col, William Brown, of Con- necticut, one of the bravest soldiers of the war | for independence. At nineteen years of age he | was one of fifty men in the forlorn hope which | volunteered to storm Stony Point. For his | bravery on this occasion he was decorated by Martha Washington with a badge worked aby herself, one side bearing the word “Merit,” and which she pinned upon the lapel of the ane hero's continental uniform with her own aun Col. Brown was afterward sent in command of the forces to garrison Fort Washington, near Cincinnati, Ohio, which was then in the northwestern territory. Col. Brown went there with his family about the year 1800, The honeymoon of the justice and his lovely bride will be passed in Europe. Upon their re- turn in September they will occupy the stately residence of the justice at. the corner of 16th and Q streets, a brick reproduction of New TWELVE PAGES ud architecture of the colonial period, The bride of the court will be in mourning duriug the coming season, BAYARD-CLYMER, The marriage of Miss Mary Willing Clymer to ex-Secretary of State T. F. Bayard, of Dela- ware, will also take place in the early summer. The Bayards and the Clymers are distantly ated. The ex-premier is an old friend at the Jlymer homestead, and among the young ladies has always been called “Uncle Tom.” The betrothed of the ex-premier belongs to a historic family on both sides, She is the daughter of Dr. George Clymer, a grandson of the signer of the Declaration ef Independence, a native of Pennsylvania, who entered the navy in 1829, as assistant surgeon on the frigate Constellation, and performed other duty as medical officer on some of the most noted ves- sels of the old navy. He was surgeon of the Mississippi squadron from 1863 to 1865, and died in Waahington after along and distin- guished career in the medical department of the navy, HER REVOLUTIONARY ANCESTOR, Miss Clymer’s mother was Miss Mary Shu- brick, daughter of Rear-Admiral Wm. Brand- ford Shubrick, one of the most distinguished officers of the navy. He was the son of a col- onel in the revolutionary army under Gen. Nathaniel Greene, and his aid at the battle of Eutaw Springs. He was a native of South Norfolk against the British. He was lieutenant on the Constitution at the capture of the Cayans and Levant in 1815, and received a silver medal from the Congress, besides a sword from his native state, as a testimonial of his bravery. During the Mexican war he was commander-in-chief of the Pacitic squadron. In 1847, with a naval brigade, organized from the vessels of his fleet of which, the Indepen- dence was the flagship, he captured the cities of the entire western coast of California and Mexico, He later commanded a fleet of which the Sabine was the flagship, and sailing for Buenos Ayres satisfactorily settled the inter- national difficulty with Paraguay. He atter- ward performed duties in the British prov- inces. He was one of the most courtly men of the navy, and after long services, spent on the lighthouse board, died in Washington in 1874. rolina, and in 1813 assisted in defense of | Mrs. Dr. Clymer has two daughters: one is married; the other, the fiancée of ex. spe Bayard, is very handsome, in the thirties, and, in addition to her genial manners, is highly educated and gifted. ALLISON-STOUGETON, The announcement of the marriage of Senator Allison, of Iowa, to Miss Theresa Stoughton, lacks authorative verification, Those who have been most intimately associated with the Sen- ator are disposed to regard the story as a romance, but upon the simple ground that he has never shown the slightest indication of a tender feeling pointing toward the sea of matrimony. It does not seem to be known even by the Senator's friends that his alleged pros- pective bride is now a guest with other ladies of the «Senatorial Canadian trade relations junketing expedition en route for Alaska, and which underwent a few days ago, the experi- ence of a railrdad accident in which Senator Hale was injured. MI88 STOUGHTON is an exceedingly beautiful lady about thirty years of age, daughter of a former patent at- torney of Washington. Her sister is the wife of Paymaster Albert W. Bacon, United State: navy, a native of Pennsylvania, who built the fine residence on Farragut square, occupied by Postmaster-General Dickinson during the late administration, and recently purchased by the Secretary of the Navy, Mr. Tracy. The historic ion which is now being prepared for the residence of Premier Blaine formerly belonged to the Stoughton estate, and was purchased by David King, of New York. The marriage announcement fixes the time for next fall. Senator Allison resides in a fine residence on Vermont avenue, just off Thomas circle, SENATOR ALLISON'S HOUSEHOLD. Since the sad death of his wife the Senator's household has been presided over by her foster mother, Mrs, Grimes, This historic woman, although somewhat advanced in years, enjoys vigorous health, and has been one of ee poate figures in the social life of Washing- on for many years, She was Elizabeth Barak! Nealley, daughter of a prominent citizen of New Hampshire. Her father was closely related to Jonathan Cilley, well known in public affairs, and who, while in the House of Representatives of the United States, was killed near Washington in a duel with William J. Graves, of Kentucky. Miss Nealley went to Iowa with her elder brother in 1846, @ year after the territory be- came a state, e same year she married James Wilson Grii then a rising lawyer, state legislator and politician of thirty years of age.

Mrs. Allison, who was one of the most charm- ing and popular women for ten years in the representative's social life, and afterward among the senatorial ladies until her sad death some years ago, was Miss Mary Nealley, a niece and adopted daughter of Mrs. Grimes. The sister of Grimes, who was Susan Nealley, married Aiden Walker, and was the mother of Captain John G. Walker, present chief of the bureau of navigation. DeB. R. K. ‘POTOMAC RIVER BOATS.
