Queer Doings at Bryn mawr.
philadelphia Press.l

Bryn Mawr is always good for some inter-
estipg high jinks during the season. An
amusing bit in this way took place night
or two ago and was participated in by many
of the fashionable people at the place.
After dinner, and quite to the surprise of
everybody not in the scheme. half dozen
fashionable women marched into the hotel
parlor, rugged out in fanciful dresses and
and their faces masked. They carried
brooms la sabre and scabbards hung by
brass chains from their girdles. They called
themselves the broom brigade. Mrs. Thack-
ara, Gen. Sherman's brilliant daughter, was
very properly the captain. Her lieutenant
was Mrs. Meredith Baily. They sang very
long and very lovely ballad, the burden of
which apparently was, Pish. pish, the men
all the same, and about twenty of them, more
Enthusiastically attired than the women, came in
before the ladies had finished their perform
ance. They were unier the command of Mr..
Ned Smith. They were envsloped in sheets,
slips being made for the mouth, nose, and
eyes, and two upright fixtures adorned each
side of the head, looking much like horns.
The men also went through course Of bur-
lesque drilling and sang q ballad compli-
menting the ladies'. Mrs. Thackara mean
time had quietly led her brigade out, gath
cred up all the other ladies around who
conld be impressed into service, covered them
all with sheets obtained from the stors.room,
and marched them back into the parlor.
There was some more singing, good deal Of
raillery, and::uproar generally. After that
there were salads and oysters and noend OF
laughter and gossip. Both the ladies and
gentlemen had been coached in the manual
Of arms by Comptroller aud Col. Dechert,

1t was the first evening / was in gor-
dola, and, after admiring the skill and ease
with which the gondolier manipulated his
oar, I was struck with the idea Of attempting
the feat myself. Nothing looked easier than
to initiate that ,swarthy Italian, to stand up
on the rear end Of the gondola and dip the
oar in and out of the water.
" You look tired" said to the gondolier:
:" If you like you may rest awhile and will
row for you,''
Had offered to stand on my head and
row to Milan the man could not have looked
more astonished.
You, signore ?" he exclaimed. "Why,
you couldn't even learn TO stand up here

Capei's Real Mission.

tMgr. Capel In San Francisco Alta California;
II is entirely untrue that ever said am
"going to convert the people of the United
States to Ronanism." II is equally untrue
that came to America to make converts, !"
be they, in the elegant, refined diotion of the
writer from London, " moneyed widows aud
ancient maidens." With my solid convic-
tions and firm belief in the truth of Catholi-
cism, would wish to labor for aud to see
the people Of the States and the whole world
in the one holy Catholic Church, Still, this
is not the motive of my visit. My lectures
and discourses have destroyed some of the
prejudice against the Church, and several
persons have, in consequence, returned to the
Mother and Mistress OF Churches. They do
not happen to be moneyed widows or an
cient maideps," but the majority of them
honorable, truthful men. And in this CON.
nection l may say that Of those have ever
received into the Church the men and wo-
men are about equally balanced in number.

A Talk with Florence.


Now, my boy, you must not expect me
TO tell you any fishing stories," said Billy
Florence, the actor, when a reporter entered
his apartments at the Fifth Avenue Hotel
the other day. "No one can talk Of his
fishing adventures without being accused of
drawing very long bow, and ! will have
no imputations cast upon my veracity. II
has always been wonder TO me that per-
son cannot talk Of any fishing experience as
he can of any other experience in life. But
he can't, you know. People won't believe
him"

Yes, before consulting our engagement

have done IL several times on both sides of
the Atlantic. Dickens saw me play II once,
and upon meeting him after the performance
spologised 10 him for my own interpola-
lions or gags as we call them. oh, no
excuses, he said; everything you said
was Just what such man as Capt. Cutie
would have said, and they suited the char
acter very WE'LL The last time played the
part was at the Walnut Street Theatre,
Philadelphia, at a matinee. The house was
crowded, many old play-Goers who remem-
bered Burton in the character being present,

Grant ON the Siege OF yicksburx,

During the siege there had been good
deal of friendly sparring between the soldiers
Of the two armies on picket and where the
lines were close together. All rebels were
known as 'Johnnies,' all Union troops as
'Yanks.' Often johnny would call,
well, Yank, when are you coming into
town. The reply was sometimes, We
propose to celebrate the Fourth of July
there Sometimes il would, We always
treat our prisoners with kindness and do not
want to hurt them or, We are holding
You as a prisoners of war while you are feed
ing yourselves etc. The garrison, from the
commanding general down, undoubtedly ex-
pected an assault on the 4th. They knew
from the temper of their men that 1t would
be successful when made, and that would be
a greater humiliation than to surrender.
Besides, it Would be attended with severe
loss to them. The vicksburg paper (Which
we received regularly through the courtesy
of the rebel pickets) said prior to the 4th, in
speaking of the Yankee boats, that they
would take dinner in Vicksburg that day,
that the best receipt for cooking rabbit
was, First ketch your rabbit The paper
at this time, and for some time prior, was
printed on the plain side of wall paper. The
edition was issued on the 4th, and an
nounced that We had caught our rabbit. {"

The washington Medals.
lpen: perley roore in Boston Budget.


Daniel Webster, In 1924 or 1925, while
reading the Inteltigencer at his breakfast
table in Washington City, aocidently dis
covered the advertisement of a pawnbroker
Offering for sale the Washington medals. :"
He hasteued to the shop of the broker and
bought the medals at the price demanded.
He then wrote to Judge Bushrod Washing
ton, stating the fact Of his coming into the
possession of the medals, and offering to re-
store them to the family. Judge Washing
ton, in his reply, stated that as admins
traitor Of Gen. Washington he had disposed
OF them and similar articles al auction
among the heirs at.law; that the medals
were bought by Lawrence Lewis, and had
descended to his son, who held minor office
In the Treasury quite inadequate to the
support Of his family. He had therefore
authorized the broker to sell the medals,
After thanking Mr.. Webster for his kind
offer, Judge Washington concluded 81 am
childless and not rich. In few years, at
the longest, the process will have to be gone
over again; and, as the medals are now in
good hands, pray you to keep them" AT
his death Mr.. Webster bequeathed Tie medals
to his friend, Peter Harvey. In April, 1874,
Mr.. Harvey presented them to the Massa.
chusetts Historical Society, and they are
safely deposited In its new fireproof hall.

The spirited social rivalry between the
Astors and Belmonts is one Of the most in.
terestipg phases Of Newport life this season.
At the outset Mrs. William Astor succeeded
in capturing large proportion of the young
people by the charming socisbility and
sumptuousness of her entertainments. The
prestige Of the Astors, as one of the richest
families in the world, naturally mad8 the
Astor receptions, kettle drums, and picnics
very fashionable and very popular. Mrs.
August Belmont is not without ambition to
shine, and she gave some very elegant en-
tertainments, but did not succeed in wrest-
ing the social leadership away from Mrs.
Astor. Recently Mrs. Belmont appeared on
the fashionable drives in turnout that for
the time being eclipses every other turnout
in Newport for its elabOrateness. Its q costly
barouche drawn by four horses. There is
no drivers seat, but positions are mounted
on the two leading horses and gorgeously
attired footman is perched up behind. A
few days ago at the polo ground quite sen
sation was created by one of Mrs. Bel
mont's positions marching through the
crowd of carriages on the driveway and ex.
claiming "Make way, please Make way
Mrs. Belmont's coach is coming!"
