The eveut which is to open brilliantly
the s,e!al season Lere is the house-warm-
ing OF the Metropolitan Club ia Its hand
some new quarters Gu tho 2Sth. Tues
far there has been even less sociability
than usual at this season on account of
the extraordinary absorption OF such
society ladies as are already here ia fur.
nishing the new houses into which 80
many o. them are eLtering. Il is rather
surprising 20 SEQ so many prominent and
fashionable ladies attending the auction S
o. hne furniture and housekeeping goods
as one meets here. In this respe, Z
Washington is different from most utuet
large cities. Women do nat lose caste
III the most select social circles here by
attending quietly informing auction,
/ dressed as il for marketing, and bidding
with the same noBohallance with which
they would order roast of their butcher
1t has, perhaps, its pleasant side in be-
iug II frank, mutual admission that they
do not disdain to study economy. Our
salaried officers, indeed. whether in civil
or military life, if they live on their salar-
les, are compelled to do so and their
wives have less pin money than might he
supposed. There are more nice things
in the line OF furnishings and bric-a-brac
sold at auction here than in any other
city, think, which is lrgely on account
OF our changing population, including
foreign ambassadors aud people ofW ealth.
They come for time and are soon off
1gnin.
Hal!ett Kilbourn don't find it such an |
easy matter TO get big sum out of Un- |
Gle Sam as he thought, For the second |
time the verdict given him by Wash-
in8ton jury has been set aside. You |
can rely upon Washington jury to vote

There is 10 doubt that KilbouIns impri
onment for refusing to diYulge his pri-
vate affairs, If they were private affairs,
was illegal, but there is consider bic
douDt about his being entitled to very
large damages. The first verdict OF
Sl0O,OOO was very properly set aside as
excessive and the last one, though utt
much more than half as large, was iu-t
az properly annulled by the court for The
