4 WASHINGTON ROMANCE

EANOTHER JENKINs-CH CASE.
The correspondent Of the Cincinnati GG5ette
writes as follows from this city: "a prominent
army officer, high in rank, sristocratic in line
age, and with hair sIlVered by long and ire
proachable service, married his second and
favorite daughter, four years ago, to young
officer in the ordnance, who was equally wen
connected and highly esteemed. His young
Eife had played a conspicuous part in the
rivalry for belleship, and for two winters bore
her blushing belors thick tp6h her. She was
me6!dm size, fully formed, with bright color,
large violet blue eyes, dashed with black, dark
hair, very Viyacious, and one ofthe best dahcers.
The Major, her husband, was 8 handsome
man, sedate, studious, digniGed and caring
nothing for the butterfly existence Of the verita-
bly, society lover. How could these two ut
terly different fall in love with one snotheri'
was the general exclamation. 'On the princi-
pie, suppose, Of two extremes meeting was
the witty reply.
''In the faint light Of an early summer morn
ing, about two weeks ago, the wife and her
beautiful child were handed from a carriage to
the door OF the pateTnal mansion by young
man, whose white face, stern and rigid, broke
into 10 smile Of farewell as he left the two at
the outside Of the door. At the fort, which lie
ably commanded, young soldier had attract
ed the rowing eyes Of the tickle, noyelty-loving
wife. The men was handsome, and his ply
Fique noticesbly fine. The lady, commenting
upon his aristocrsticRlly small hands and feet,
declared him some expatriated policeman in
disguise, and commenced forthwith showering
npPn bin heT attentions Between an officer
aud q e6fhmon soldier In the regular Army a
Rfest gulf is fixed, which nothing like famil-
iarfty eVet spans. A soldier is looked upon as
something littie more useful than a dog, a
degree better, perhaps, than horse, but peye''
regarded as q man and brother. No converse
ton is held with him; he is peremptorily or
dered, and, like q machine, obeys. That an
officers wife could thus stoop 10 conquer is
hardly creditable, and it is very certain that no
oversight came from the soldier first. A divorce
is now in order, and If certain suspicious can
be proved the child will be worse than mother
less The proud heads Of the parents are bent
low with the disgrace, and their house, always
open and gay, is now closed as If the dead were
within. Better were 1t so. What spirit within
us is It that tempts us 10 do what eternities Of

This transformation has been accomplished
by Mr.. G. W. Utermehle, the well-known cap

eight buildings, with q general front Of one
hundred and sixty feet and a depth Of eighty
They are built of brick, with iron trimmings
and average ten rooms each. The cost Of thG
structures, including the improvements, will
be-about one hundred thousand dollars.
Yesterday evening the buildings were

ors alike partook, and duly appreciated the
revival Of a custom which in the past was con-
sidered one Of the most important points in q
new building. As yet none Of the eight houses
have been rented, but the proprietor has q
number Of applications for each.
Mr.. B. B. Curran is the architect and super
intendent, and to say that he has utilized
space and material with the best possible effect
will but family convey an idea Of his labors.
Mr. Utermehle is also the owner of q row on
the opposite side, which have been remodeled
and modernized at great expense to conform
TO the new grade, and which are today among
the finest business places in the city. They
are occupied by Mr.. Henry King, fancy store;

1t has been q matter Of surprise to many
that two large cities, distant but six miles
from each other, and having population to-
gether Of us, 900, are not surrounded by pleas
ant country towns, gaining sustenance from
the large city, and yet offering all the attrac-
tons Of country home. This want is now
being supplied. Directly between the two
cities of Washington and Alexandria, on the
turnpike and railroad, IS situated the new
suburban town of Arlington Park. Nature has
been lavish in her gifts. The seenefy Is the
most varied in this section; the heights are
loftier and the views beyond compaTleon-the
grandest in the vicinity Of the national capt.
tai. Hourly trains stop at the Park, but two
miles from Washington, Over fifty lots have
been sold. Several buildings wifi be erected

dra and YPsbingtoH streets have at great
cost been beautifully CONSTRUCTED and graded.
4 splendid entrah9 has BEEN made, Joining
the Park with the turnpike. This enterprise
has proved 4 great success, and Arlington
Park Is destined, without doubt, to be the link
that will IN a few years rivet together the two
cities Of Washington and Alexandria.
The lots are OF various sizes, from fifty feet
front to twenty-five acres. This property, be-
longing TO Alexander Hunter, esq, offers great
inducements to capitalists, and, above all,
presents to the workingmen a rare chance to
get country home, within musket-shot of the
city, at an exceedingly low price, and three
years to make the payment, and outside the
District, where the taxes are so light as
scarcely to be felt. For full particulars and

EYCERSLON Trains.

Last week the Richmond, Fredericksburg
and Potomsc and Alexandria and Fredercks-
burg lines Of railway opened their hearts and
sold exc ursion tickets for q round trip from
Richmond to Washington and return for three
dollars. A large number of passengers left
Richmond in the morning and arrived here at
II q. m, spent the day, and left on the return
trip at 6 p. m, arriving in Richmond before
midnight. This is a step in advance on that
line of travel which deserves commentator,
and we hope TO see the experiment once or
twice week during the season. It has been
suggested that such excursions leaving Rich
mond and Washington or Baltimore, on Satur-
day evenings, and returning Sunday nights or
Monday mornings, would attract large num-
bers and become very popular. II Is 70 be
hoped that such experiments viii lead to a
reduction of fares between Baltimore and
Washington and Richmond by this route.
There can be but little doubt that three cents
per mile regular fare would pay the companies
better than the present high rates.

NATIONAL THEATRE

The lGudable venture of bIr. Buckingham,
of the National, in inaugurating weeks en-
tertsinment during this luIl of thespian per-
formances, deseryesthe highest possible praise.
The company, under the talented leadership OF
Mr.. Chas. Howard, performed IN q manner
only to be fully appreciated by being seen. 1t
is difficult to distinguish where go many indE
yidually have distinguished themselves. In
the laughable' clio, "Nitro GlyceTine," the
three partiCipators-Messrs. Howard, Cush-
man and Benn-acted in a manner that con-
vulsed the house with laughter. The songs Of
Miss Katie Howard were incompatible, and
her charming style elected heartfelt applause.
In the great Southern drama, "After the War,
Mr.. Howard, as Uncle Antony; Mr.. Glenn, az
Bill Struthers, and Mr.. Crane, as Hsrpey,
shone supreme. Nor must we forget Messrs,
Fay, Blondell or Master Buckingham. The
entire performance was q complete success,
aud together with the pleasant temperature Of
the theatre, the courtesy Of the attendants, and
withal the recollection and presence Of Mr.
Buckingham, makes it in the best manner
worthy Of a crowding patronage.
THEATRE CoMIQUE.
This favorite place of amusement was crowd
ed last night. An entirely new programme
was presented, which, for variety and excel
lence, cannot be surpassed. The principal fea-
ture ofthe performance this week is the great
equestrian drama Of "Mazeppa, or the Wild
Horse Of Tartary," in which the dsshing Miss
Kate Fisher, and her trained horse, Wonder,
divide the interest. The piece IS well mounted,
and Miss Fisher and her steed are ably sup
ported by the full strength Of the Comique
company. Previous 10 the drama the usual
variety entertainment is given. Miss Blanche
Stanley, beautiful blonde, with q good So
prano voice and a brilliant wardrobe, gives a
number Of songs. The popular Frankie Chris
lie appears in new dance, which was justly
encored; the graceful Autoinnette Kurtz has q
new grand waltz, and Miss Emma Trueman q
brigand dance. The jubilee of Edwards and
Hodges is irresistible, the "Hamlet IN B Flat
being extremely ludicrous. Charles Diamond
gives a remarkable exhibition with the harp,
which he plays with skill, and Wilson and
johnson give Ethiopian sketches. Altogether,
the programme is one that cannot fail TO sat
isfy the most exRctlng, and we are not sur
prised at the great success that Manager
Rogers Is having,
