Mrs. Longtry Socially Considered.

Ncto York Letter 10 San FTGncisco ArgOndm
Socially Mrs. Langtry is slowly but surely
becoming popular in New York. She has a
charming little house on Thirteenth street-a
quiet and respectable, but not fashionable,
neighborhood-wh she gives luucheons
occasionally to friends, aud lives comfortably
with her mother. She has well-mntched
groom and ooachman, neat maid, good
cook, and is n gracious and jolly hostess
Last week she gave luncheon to eight
lodies, who, though not belonging to the
very bo st circles of New York society, were
in their way representative society women
Freddy Gcbhardt is never soeu at her house,
and the Lily's name seldom appears in
tho papers, except in o legitimate way
through criticisms Of her performances Last
week she occupied good share OF tho public
prints, however, in two cases whore she was
sued for damages--in ono instance by John
A. Stevens and in another by an actor in her
troupe. Mrs. Langtry sat down opposite the
jury in court and testified before thcm with
appealing and af1ectionate eyes. In both
instances the jury Strengthened itself, twirl ed
its mustache, folt Of its scarf, smiled fascin'
atingly in return, and decided in favor of tho
Lily with enthusiasm and affection. This
goes farther than anything else to refute the
claim that Mrs Langtry is not beautiful
woman.

Chicago Figures.

CHICAGO, June l0--Widely extended crop
reports received by the FdrmerS' ReUielU show
no material change in winter wheat since the
last report except that the general condition
is not so good. The weather has been excel
lent for spring wheat In Minnesota all the
counties report wheat Us looking finely, with
the exception of ono or two counties where
the average yield it is estimated, will fall
below that of last year. Reports from Ne
braska indicate only an average prospect for
wheat and corn.
The majority Of the Ohio reports are not
such as to indicate anything more than a fair
wheat crop. Indiana has promise of IN
average crop except in the southern portion
of the state, whore the outlook is gloomy.
The same is true of Illinois. Iowa reports
good wheat and corn prospects, and the
wheat yield in Kansas promises to be very
large. The wheat prospects in kentucky are
not as promising as they were a year ago
In Missouri an average crop is predicted
Farmers generally are delivering surplus
stocks of wheat and corn freely.
