VIRGINIA, New, July 8.-The CITY il full
of rumors of scandal in high life which
had rise recently at the International hotel.
For some three months Washington wom-
an, known in town as ''the $50, 900 widow"
has been stopping at the hotel. Her name
is Mrs. Allen, and the scandal touches her
and Adolph Sutro. of tunnel notoriety. Last
Thursday Mr.. Sutro and family came to Vir-
ginia to attend the performance of "Pina-
FORE" After dinner the inmates of the hotel
were startled by screams of women and calls
for everybody to come and see. A general
rush was made in the direction of the cries.
which led to the room of Mrs. Allen, where
Mrs. Sutro was beating her over the head
with champagne bottle, and making out
cries, calling her all sorts of names. Friends
rushed in and seized Mrs. Sutro, when she de-
clared that she had caught her husband
with Mrs. Allen. Mrs. Sutro was removed
to her room and commenced making things
,vely for Mr.. Sutro, accusing him of inf
oelity and holding questionable relations
with the woman, whom she continued to de-
nOunce in unmeasured terms. It IS reported
that Mr.. Sutro has long been intimate with
the woman, their relations having been es-
tablished at the East; but, nevertheless, thew
were introduced recently as if they had
never met. That Mr.. Sutro was in the lady's
room he admits, but denies all else. It ia
stated that E. B. Stonehill has been retained
as attorney for Mrs. Sutro in suit for di
vorce, which will be commenced immedi
ately.

Niagara Falls is the grandest cataract
IN the world. Half of it belongs to the
United States, yet it is not possible for
an American citizen even to look at the
falls unless he pays at least twenty-five
cents. Wat ms Glen, New York, is a
wonderful chasm, wild and picturesque
but the free American citizen must nav
fifty cents to enter it.
It is hard to fence in Mount Washino-
ton, and it has not yet been accom-
plished, but as the fares are much higher
than the mountain, the free American
citizen may think he can save money bv
walking to the top. He is mistaken.
He will have to pay eighty cents toll to
walk up. -
The Au Sable chasm is gloomy and
grand, but it costs the American Citizen
fifty cents to see it. The Flume at the
Franconia Notch is worth seeing-seven
ty-five cents worth. The whirlpool at
Niagara is sad and sombre, at least q
makes the free American feel SO when he
goes there with party of ladies-fftv-
cents each. The Falls of Montmorencv
are romantic, historical and beautiful
twenty five cents admission and fiftv
cents toll. And thus it goes.
