DRESS IN WASHINGTON.
CareIessly Selected Clothes Great
 Mistake.

CareIessly Selected Clothes a Great
 Mistake.
 Attorney General Garland's action in not attending the State dinners at the White House is construed on different grounds by different clements of Washington society, writes Carp to the Cleveland Leader. Mr Garland's friends say that he excludes himself from social Washington on account of bereavements in his family. Another explanation is that Garland has made holy VOW that he will never wear dress coat, that such a thing has never been known to the family, and he does not propose to be the first to introduce it. This matter of dress coat and Washington society has been q trou blesome question to many man be- fore Garland. Senator Joe Brown worried his soul about it for months before he made the attempt, and finally compromised the matter by having a swalloWtall made ot chinchilla beaver, and wearing a red flannel chest t-protector under the bosom of his shirt. Brown was influenced by his health, as we'll as by the fear of his constituents. Ex- Secretary Kirkwood would not wear dress suit while he was in Washington, and he often appeared at the White House receptions in black string necktie, linen frayed at the edges, and coat and pantaloons of broadcloth shining with age.
 Senator George of Mississippi is another man who affects that feature of snobbishness which leads it's possessor to dress roughly in stead of well. George promised his constltu ents in speech about two years ago, that he would neither wear dress coat in Wash ington nor ride in a carriage. He has kept this promise religiously, and he goes about the capital at all times in business clothes.
 A leading Senator, in speaking of this mat tor If draSa the other 0aV said to me: " Pub lie opinion has changed of late years, and the people want their representatives to be dress ed like gentlemen. It is a greater weakness to underdress than to overdress, and it will hurt the man more who affects it. The day of Blue Jeans Williams has passed away. The standard of intelligence is too high for dirt and rags to represent greatness. In twenty years from now you will hear no more of the buncombe statesmen whose.chief cap ital is a dirty shirt, slouch hat and the shake of hand. The day of responsibility has succeeded that of the commonplace and people see that rough clothes do not make the good democrat any more than those of the dude make the gentleman"

A very erroneous impression generally ex- ists in this country as to the manner in which the English language is spoken in the United States. This has arisen in some de- gree from the circumstance that travellers have dwelt upon and exaggerated such pc, culiarities of language as have come under their observation in various parts of the Un- ion; but also in greater measure from the fact that in English novels and dramas in

 The textile manufacturers of Philadelphia
 and Boston are interesting themselves in the
 investigation now making by sub-commit-
 tee of the United States senate into the un-
 dervaluation of imports. In the two cities
 named the practice has affected not alone the manufacturers, but also honest importers, who are unable to compete with firms selling undervalued imports. The result of proper supervision of invoices at these ports has been the transfer of much of the business of importation to New York, where inspection is less careful It is noted that the business of importing, even in New York, has largely left the hands of native and naturalized Americans and been monopolized by resi- dent, but still foreign, agents of houses abroad, who have no interest in this country beyond that of making money.
 Since the death of her husband Mrs Thomas A. Hendricks has been considerably annoyed by letters and communications pur- porting to be from MT. Hendricks which have been sent to her by Spiritualists. One of them pretended to be an autograph letter written by the dead vice president in the spirit land. Mrs. Hendricks is reported as saying that this was very close imitation of her husbands handwriting. but that she could easily detect its spuriousness. 'I do not believe in such things" she says, ''and do not see that any good can come from encouraging them. That they do not come from MT. Hendricks is clear to my mind, for the sentiments in none of the communica- tions are expressed in language such as he would have used. They bear on their face the impress of an inferior mind are inferior to his while alive, and certainly inferior now, if the spirit land, as believe, eievates and ennobles the sentiments and aspirations of the soul"

 general feels sore about his recent expos

FATE OF THE ORPHAN BOZ.
Wreckage Washed Ashore Leaves Nc
Doubt that she Was Lost.

GRAND HAVEN, MICH, Jan. Appropriations
as TO the fate of the missing schooner Orphan
Boy were many and varied, but all left doubt
and hope of an ultimate safe turning up OF the
vessel and crew. Superintendent Robbins OF
letter from the keeper OF the Grand Point Au
Sable station, dated December 80, saying that
there was a great deal of wreckage In his Vi
cinity that had been coming ashore for nearly
two weeks. He says from the booms, spars, and
other articles found, that he judges IL 70 be the
wreck OF a three masted schooner. Among
other things is the stern of a yawl. which bears
the name "Orphan Boy" This, IL Is thought,
settles positively the fate OF the vessel. There
is no doubt that she went down In the terrible
storm OF December 9Th, with all hands The
Orphan Boy left 81. Ignace. Mich, on the morn
ing OF Decemberl L. She was loaded with dry
lumber, a cargo which under ordinary circum-
stances would prevent her sinking In a storm,
even though she had sprung a leak. The last
seen OF her was on the afternoon of December
4th. when a fisherman at Bever Islands saw q
vessel answering her description of that bleak
and desolate coast The wind was blowing
forty Liies an hour, and the mercury had run
down to ten degrees below zero. The vessel
was sailing on northwest course, but IRON the
moment the fisherman beheld the schooner
beating down before the horrible gale not a
word has been heard from her. The searching
without success. Her master was Capt. Aaron
Halliday. The first mate, Bert Smith, was a

who reside In Chicago. The cook, j. +. stick
