many families will spend this winter here who
have never been in Washington for any consid-
cradle length of time.
The, charges are not overly extravagant here

realms of thefashion. The first class hotels fur
nish good rooms and board at So. 90 day or $50
a month, up to Sc day or $40 month. Rooms
in the flats vary ffom $50 to $215 month with

The cost of living for visitors is about % per
cent. higher than in large Northern and Western
cities. The city cannot be so full, either, that
there is not abundant room for more. The Wis

After MANY Years.

MEMPHIS Tenn, Nov. 4.-Some fifteen years
ago, John d. Thompson, residing near Somer-
vile, in Fayette county, Tennessee, having a
spite against neighbor named Bailey, filled a
bottle with liquor, which he poisoned with
strychnine and placed in the road SO that
Bailey would find it. His scheme succeeded, and
Bailey together with two of his children, who
drank of the poisoned liquor died. Their death
remained a mystery until year ago, when
Joseph Thompson, a son of John D. Thompson,
was taken very i'll, and thinking he would die,
confessed the crime his father committed four
teen years previously, and of which he had full
knowledge, having been with his parent when
the poisoned liquor had been placed in the road,
knowing that Bailey would soon pass that point.
Joseph Thompson did not die, but recovered,
and father and son were tried at Somerville on
last Monday. Both were convicted. The father
received a sentence Of twenty-one years in the
penitentiary, the son a sentence of fourteen
years.

The Loan Fund of the Methodist Church Ex-
tension Society.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. l5-The general COM
mittee on church extension of the
NJ. E. Church resumed its session
to-day, Bishop Ninde presiding. The committee
on annuities reported that, in their judgment
the board should not receive funds or anpuities
from persons less than sixty five years of age, or
pay more than per cent per annum, except in
special cases approved by the corresponding
secretary of the general committee This fund
is composed of money loaned by persons to the
Board of Church Extension, for the purpose of
forwarding the work of the board, and on which
the board is required to pay an annual rate of
interest as long as the donor lives The fund
now amounts in all to about $500, 600
The'interest on the fund last year amounted to
about 500, 900, and the income to the fund
amounted to about $1,000, leaving deficit of
$ll, 900, which had to be drawn from other re-
sources of the board. Rev. Mr.. Craig moved
thatan amendment be added that no donation
be accepted untilapproved by the corresponding
secretary and the committee on loan fund. A
member of the committee thought instead of any
other fund being drawn on to make up the def
icit of the loan fund, the principal of the loan
fund itself should be employed. After further
discussion, the report of the committee was
adopted, with the amendment offered by Rev.
Alexander Craig.

LONDON, Nov. .15.-The Times this morning
devotes the leading article to the celebration at
st. Pauls, yesterday, in honor of the centen-
NAL of the conservation of the first bishop of the
American Episcopal Church. In the course Of
the article the Times says: 'If ever it is separ-
ated from the state the Church of England may
LEAN from American precedent that it need not
fear-extinction or humiliation. The American
church has set an example which the English
church would do we'll to initiate, in enlisting the

Washington Special to Boston Record.
Mr. Arthur is having an easy life of it these
autumn days. Most days 1t is near noon before
he appears at the White House, and by o'clock
he is always on the way to the Soldiers Home,
where none but his personal friends venture to
intrude His cottage there is handsome two
story wooden house, with large rooms, open fires
and pretty furniture. He has the same cooks
and servants as at the White House and has
each day as pretty bill for dinner as Delmonico
could serve. He apparently likes the solitude
there, for he seldom invites the governor
or his deputy to visit him. The gov
ernor is Colonel Sturgs, of the Seventh
Cavalry, the regiment which was cut to pieces on
the Rosebud under it's ieutenant-colonel Gus
ter. The deputy governor is Major Lyman, of
the Fourth Infantry, who is brother of Senator
Edmunds's wife, and most excellent officer. AS
showing how scrupulous Mr.. Edmunds is about
asking favors for his kin, L may say that Major
Lyman, although he has an excellent record as
volunteer officer in the war, was never stationed
east of the Mississippi from 1866 up to two years
ago, and then ordered here without the
Senator's knowledge Mr. Arthur takes little

there has settled down to the belief that Gov.
Cleveland and Miss Maria Love- a Unknown
society woman of that city, are engaged, and are
soon to be married Miss Love is described as a
dashing woman. forty years of age more, who
for many years has been "a figure in Buffalo So
siety. Years ago she was at the head of a
small private school in that city. She is sister
of Mrs Thomas Carey, with whose family her
parents being dead, she lives. When Gov.
Cleveland visited Buffalo few weeks ago,
the private dinner which was given him
was at the Carey mansion. The
young people of the Carey and the Rumsey fam
lilies have intermarried and are all addicted to
the fashionable outdoor sports of driving stylish
turnouts of polo, tennis, and the like. The
Carey boys are among the Buffalo independents

Miss Love is well known in Newport and New
York society, and has been abroad several times.
The family is said to have a weakness for some
what startling social surprises, that astonish
more staid people, and Miss Love inherits this
tendency. She is SAID to have money, and
bestows her attentions upon polo matches and
similar social amusements Those who know

life that are calculated to cause a great deal of
bad feeling in the military arm of the govern

quartermasters department for some time and

An American Adventurer.

LONDON, Nov. 15.-There are several city men
in London Just now who feel a lively interest in
Colonel Andrew jackson Rogers, late of the
American volunteers, who has recently been de-
voting his talents to showing Englishmen how
they could be rapidly enriched by investing in
certain enterprises of which he is a promoter.
Owing to circumstances not wholly within the
control of Colonel Rogers, he has become fnan-
cially stranded, and is now undergoinga course
of more or less voluntary bankruptcy. A meet
ing of his creditors was held in the London
Bankrupucy Court in Lincoln s-lnn-Fields this
afternoon. 1t was explained that he had been
honestly engaged in negotiating in England the
sale of shares in certain American financial
schemes which are certainly legitimate and
would probably be profitable The only trouble
was that these promising schemes had not as
yet matured. The report of the ColoneEs pres
ent financial standing showed his liabilities to
be 81 600 and his assets nothing. Some of the
creditors indulged in harsh language. One of
them said that Colonel Rogers had been guilty
of debauchery and dissipation He charged
that the Colonel had feeced the creditors, and
had lavished their money on the sirens of St
Johns Wood and the West End while preaching
morality in the city. Aftera somewhat angry
session the meeting adjourned until next week.
After appointing a committee to look after the
interests of the creditors, it'was made the duty
of the committee to arrange to save for the cred
itors any beneficial interests that may inure in
certain contracts that are liable sooner or later
to come to maturity.
