WILLIAM WALTER PHELPs.

1t is a curious fact that one of the
keenest and most experienced men in the
Congress of the United States, who has
been Minister Plenipotentiary to one of
the greatest nations of Europe, should not
only so carry himself as to provoke this sort
of criticism, but insist upon the peculiari-
ties after he has been informed through
the public prints a thousand times that
he is "the national dude" because of
them. Yet such is the fact. Mr.. Phelps
is one of the brightest minds in the House.
He is well informed upon all the topics Of
the day, good talker, brilliant CONVEX
satiOnalist, not at all exclusive in his
manners, wealthy, generous and not I'M
pOpular-yet pronounced 'Ea dude'' by
everybody. That he does wear his hair
banged, as charged, is a fact. That he
glOries in it, is proven by the tact that he
sits for his photographs with it in this
condition, and pronounced the photo from
which the accompanying sketch is
made the best he had ever had in
America or Europe: OF course, it is Mr..
Phelps vigorous championship of Mr..
Blaine's cause that gives him Just now
much of his special fame. 1t seems pretty
well understood that in the event of Mr..
Blaine's election he is to occupy very
important position under him-either as
Secretary of State or Minister TO England.
He has been from the first one of Mr..
Blaine's most ardent supporters, battling
earnestly the numerous attacks upon him
from every quarter. Personally, Mr..
Phelps is one of the most agreeable men
in the House, and, as speaker, none
command more closely the attention of
the House. In his dress he is scrupu-
lousy neat, but not attracting attention
so much from this cause as from the fact
that he bangs his hair and is somewhat
affected in his manner. He is one Of the
wealthest men in the House, paying
taxes in Washington alone on 800, 900
worth Of real estate, while IN bank prop
erty he is well supplied.

NM Washinrtnn NInnnment

WASHINGTON, Aug 22.-''The seafold-
ing is being erected around the top of the
monument" said the engineer in charge
of the W ashiugton monument, 'tand every
thing is being put in condition for the
construction of the pyramidal top. 1t
will take as long to fix the scatfolding
and make-the arrangements as it will to
do the work. 1t is a novel piece of engi-
neering, and there may be some hitch
about it, but if there is not we will begin
to place the stones in position before the
end Of September, and put the finishing
touches on the monument before Nov. 1.
There is now every indication of this be-
ing accomplished"
The original resolution to erect an
equestrian statue to the memory OF George
Washington at the seat of the Federal
government, which was the first step to-
wards the erection of the present monu-
ment, was offered in Congress Aug. 7,
1888. When Congress finally appropriated
money to complete the unfinished shaft, it
happened that the appropriation was
made Aug. 2, 1876. The first stone laid
on the monument after the resumption of
the work was Aug. 7, 1880, on the ami
versary of the day when the original resO-
luton was introduced and the last stone
of the shaft was laid Aug. 8, 1884. Thus
the month of August is an important one
in the history OF the monument.

Fashion Notes.

WaistcOats of undressed kid are much
worn ON the other side.
Jewels, such as emeralds and rubies,
are fashionable for dress-buttons.
Children's garments for early fall wear
will be composed largely Of plaids.
The newest riding habits are either of
Yankee blue or Confederate gray cloth
trimmed with brass buttons. The skirt is
made rather short and the basque very
tight-ftting.
Skirts will be tucked, 1ounced, ruf1led,
braided, bordered with gold-dOtted vel
vets and other fancy fabrics in brOche
wool or silk, accordion and box pleated
according to fancy.
Butterfly dresses are all the fashion at
the watering places. They are of some
dark-tinted sateen, covered with golden,
crimson and bronze butterflies, and have
trimmings of Irish point, with bonnet
and parasol to match.
GRAY cloth suits Of tweed or flannel,
with plated English jackets, plain skirts
with few tucks and overdress pulled
tightly back, find favor for walking and
travelling dresses. The sleeves are made
perfectly plain and tight-ftting and white
linen cuffs are worn with them; also I'M
dressed kid gloves much wrinkled at the
wrist, but not coming over the cuff.
The newest stockings for wearing with
ties or slippers are of black silk, knit by
hand, the instep being in open work, with
white silk clocks up the side. Next in
favor are the black and white block silks,
and then come the plain black. For
walking boots, dark-crimsOn, brown, ecru
and old gold are all fashionable. When
bronze slippers are worn, bronze hosiery
also appears.

not troubled with affectation in the matter
of dress or manner. Perhaps it is because
the cares of state weigh so heavily on
their minds, or perhaps because their
limited salaries of So, 600 per year for five
hours service per day do not permit
them to dress well. There are a few good
dressers in the House and Senate, but not
many. Hiscock, of New York. is one of
the best dressed men in the House. Nc
Kinley, the tariff advocate, dresses very
neatly. On the other hand, the chief
tariff reformer on the Democratic side,
Mr.. Morrison, is anything but neat in his
dress, The collar of his slOuchy black
coat is usually ornamented with dand-
ruff. Hewitt, of New York. another man
with tariff ideas, does not dress tastefully
or neatly. His clothes merely ''hang" on
him, and are evidently the articles fur
thest from the thoughts or affections of
their wearer. Mr.. Randall is not good
dresser. He wears hat until it is so
absolutely shocking that his wife or
daughter 90 quietly to the halter and
order him a new hat, and, putting it in
the place of his old one, have the satisfac-
tiOn of seeing him don it and walk quietly
off the next time he starts out to his du-
ties at the capitol. Speaker Carlisle has
not been considered a neat dresser, but is
doing a trife better since his election as
dresses neatly, and is one of the men
mostly inquired after from the gallery.
Blackburn dresses neatly and to good adj
vantage, but would never forgive the man
who would call him dude. Wise, the
Readjuster member from Virginia, is one
of the neatest dressers in the House and
somewhat dudelike in his aspect. Jim
Bedford, of Colorado, is one of the worst
dressed men in the House, perhaps the
worst, though that is saying good deal.
Springer, of Illinois, dresses neatly, al
ways wears button-hOle bouquet, and
keeps his boots and hat well brushed.
Those are, however, his sole claims to
fame. In the Senate one Of the oldest
made up men is Gov. Brown, of Georgia.
His clothes fit him loosely, and his long
white beard, growing about his throat
and reaching half way to his waist, gives
him very peculiar appearance. Senator
Logan dresses fairly, Senator Beck none
too well, PendletOn very neatly, Wade
Hampton quite neatly and Van Wyck
like farmer just from the plow.

Correspondence Of the Morning Neaos
WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The national
dudes are just now attracting a good deal
Of public attention. 1t is a somewhat
curious fact that every branch of the ma
tional service from the head down has it's
dude. The Cabinet, the House, the SEN
ate, the army, the navy and the noble
band of government clerks, all are af-
fiicted with this article in a greater or
less degree. OF course the last named
branch Of the service has most, for it is
the largest in numbers, but they are suf-
ficiently numerous in all the ranks of gov
eminent service. Whether the fact that the
head Of the government, President Ar
thur, has been accused of being a dude
has anything to do with this, it is difficult
to say, but it is the fact that the service
from the White House down is thickly
besprinkled with them. Two or three OF
the most notable examples of them are
just now enjoying run of special nOto-
riety. Probably the most talked of in the
whole list is VIM. Walter Phelps, the
dude of the House. Here he is, bangs and
all.

Another national dude, who is now in
the height of his glory, is brewster,
Attorney General" He is never so hap
Ply as when attracting attention to him
self, and, between the recent star route
developments and the swell he is cutting
at Long Branch, he is quite the attrac-
ton. That he has been the great failure Of
President Arthur's Cabinet is pretty gen
orally admitted by friends as well as enc
mics of the administration. OF course,
everybody is familiar with the history OF
his terrible misfortune in childhood, in
which he was so frightfully burned and
disfigured in rescuing young sister from
burning. For his misfortune he is hon.
estly pitied, and his SCARED face is the
more hOnored than if it was the hand
soonest one in all the land. But it is be-
cause of his manner of dress, love of dis
play and foolish attempts at aristocratic
manners that he has gained the title Of
''the dude of the Cabinet" His atfecta-
tiOns, both in dress and manner, are
abOminable, and his administration Of the
affairs of the department have been the
greatest failure of the administration.
Here is his face, from an excellent photo
graph, placed on sale by his authority
with the remark that he supposed the
public had right to see how its servants
look.
In the Senate there are several men who
are accused of being somewhat dudish in
their appearance and manners. Senator
Ransom, who is one of the handsomest
and best dressed men of that body, is
occasionally spoken of in that light, as is
also Senator Pendleton, whose title Of
Gentleman George" coupled with the
fact that he appears quite self-satisfied in
manner, has probably something to do
with the accusation.

wife long occupied rooms on Twelfth
street near G.. The house is kept by an
agreeable lady who takes boarders, most
of the people living with her being ladies
and gentlemen employed in various gov
eminent departments. Gen. and Mrs.
Logan came down to their meals along
with the other people in the house and
were thoroughly democratic in every
respect.
1t has been said that Gen. Logan has a
good deal Of Indian blood in his veins.
His appearance certainly warrants the
belief shat he has. Since Gen. Logan's
nomination he has taken very handsome
private house on Capitol Hill. Should
Gov. Cleveland be elected President and
Mr.. Hendricks Vice President the wife of
a Vice President would again take lead
ing position in Washington society. Mrs.
Hendricks is lady of rare accomplish

Mrs. Logan, and woman of very differ

A BIRD WITH FINE FEATHERS.
Mrs. Moses Fraley, the wife of a st.
Louis grain speculatOr, who created a
great stir at Long Branch by the splendor
of her toilets, has gone TO Saratoga. She
was preceded by the twenty-nine trunks
that she requires to contain her ward
robe. She is said to have ninety-three
complete costumes, with parasols
and foOt-geaT to match. She
sometimes made four or five
changes a day, and left only when she had
reached the bottom of her last trunk and
was obliged to appear in one costume of
black satin en- train, beautifully adorned
with embroidery, a second time. She will
now begin the whole show over again at
the springs, and, as she does not intend to
go home before the middle of September,
she may beam on several other places.
Her diamonds are in keeping with the
splendOr of her dresses; at low estimate
they are worth $4,000. NJ.

Russia and Germany.

BERLIN, Aug. 23.-The Car of Russia
ana the Emperor William will meet early
in September, possibly at Stettin. An
envoy from the Russian Court has arrived
at Babelburg to make arrangements for
the meeting. Gen. Richter, chief Of the
Cars military household, has been
deputed to attend the fall man@uVres OF
the Prussian army. This is regarded as
a fresh proof of Russia's desire to Guilt
yate friendship with Germany.
