MRS. BURNETT's HOME.

Tom Benton wrote his "Thirty years in the
United States Senate" in an old, brown stuc-
coed house of four stories on c street, and it
was in this house that he penned his abridge-
ment of "The Debates of Congress. James
G. Blaine wrote the first volume of his
"Twenty Years i'll Congress" in three different
houses of Washington. He began it while he
was living next to Gen. Beale, and just above
the house where Mrs Sickles used to flirt with
Barton Key. He continued it in his great
mansion on Dupont's circle, which he now
rents to Chicago millionaire for $4,000
year, and he completed it in Senator Win
dom's big brick, just across from where Sec
rotary Endicott lives, and facing SCOTS
circle. Sam Cox wrote his "Three Decades of
Federal Legislation" i'll his pretty green
stone home or Dupont circle, which he sold
for $4,000 cash before he left for Turkey,
and George Bancroft has written a great part
of his historical work in his roomy brick resi-
dence, which looks out upon H street, just
above the palace of the millionaire Corcoran.

minister to England he made extracts fl ON
the public archives of England and France,
and the documents of this collection comprise
more than 200 volumes. His books are in all
languages, and he reads and talks the German
and French like the English. He considers
his history finished as far as it can be, and his
great reputation has been made by laying out
a great mission for himself early in life, and
sticking to it throughout his career.

about one-flfth of column of newspaper.

Especial Correspondence
WASHINGTON, July 9-Washington has
become one of the great literary centers of
the United States, and it has turned out some
of the most noted books and book writers in
the country "Uncle Toms Cabin" was writ

stove while he was Washington correspond
emit, and Constance Fennimore Woolson was
living in modest rooms on New York avenue
at the capital when she wrote "Anne" the
novel which gave her her greatest reputation.
The copy for this book was bundled up for
her by a congressman, who was friend of
mine, and he tells me he sent it off to Har-
peIs' in shoe box, expecting it to come out

for their magazine, and upon its conclusion
published it as a book. 1t was here that Walt
Whitman wrote "The Leaves of Grass" and

JOAQUIN MILLER's CABIN.

There is great deal of literary work being
done here all the time, and in this letter will
take you into few of the literary workshops,
and show you how some writers live and
work. Frances Hodgson Burnett has pretty
house on l street, just below the house in
which Gen. Garfield lived while he was a
member of congress. Her home is a three
story red brick, and its interior, though not
large, is furnished with aesthetic taste.
Curious furniture, old weapons and pretty
bric-a-brac are seen everywhere, and Mrs.
Burnett seems to have a passion for old
oriental rugs, for she has them of every size,
and uses them both on the floor and Oh her
sofas. She does her literary work in the
attic, where she has a room which she calls

BLOOD AND MONEY.

The blood Of man has much to do In sha,inp
his actions during his pilgrimage through this
troublesome world, regardless of the amount OF
present or expectant money in pocket or stored
away in bank. 1t is conceded fact that we appear
as our blood makes us, and the purer the blood
the happier, healthier, prettier and wiser we are
hence, the oft repeated interrogaory show is your

coursing through our veins, bounding through our
hearts and ploughing through our physical frames,
our morals become better, our constitutions
stronger, our Intellectual faculties more acute and
grander, and men, women and children happier,
healthier and mere lovely.

ago, and has not been very well since. She
wrote the story which is now coming out in
St Nicholas under the title of Little Lord
Fauntleroy" two years ago, and has done but
little since then. Mrs. Burnett is married,
and her husband is black-eyed doctor who
looks like an artist, and who is said to have
considerable artistic taste. She has two very
pretty blonde-haired little-boys, and her home
is happy one.

her den. She writes easily, is not particular
about pencils, and often jots down her ideas
on odd scraps of paper. Mrs. Burnett is a
rather pretty blonde, and her years are, l
suppose, under the forties. She is of medium
height, has dark auburn hair, broad fore
head and pleasant blue eyes. She told me
once she could not remember the time that
she began writing, and that her first story,
entitled "Miss Carruthers' Engagement" she
wrote when she was Is. She received $50 for
this from Mrs. Cooley, of the Ladys Book,
and soon furnished them another, for which
she got S35. After a time she became ac-
quainted with Peterson, of Peterson's Maya
zine, and it was only few years ago that she
got into The Century. Her books now sell as
well as those OF any novelist of to-day, and
her inducements to write have been so great
that she overtaxed herself about two Year,

The Excellent Judgment Displayed
BY Many Ardent ST. Pauiites.
Surprises are in store In the near future
for quite number who are generally well
posted on society affairs in st. Paul.
A special stir has been noticeable in GER
tain circles particularly during the past two
weeks. The names of the parties who will
be made happier on this account will not be
generally known until Christmas morning.
They will then receive those superb SOU
Venirs of Christmas, those extremely ele-
CANT presents that have been purchased for
them at Hippler & Golfers 1879 East Sew
enth street, where their grandest display of
MAGNIFICENT holiday articles has called
forth the highest praise in admira-
ton OF the enterprise exhibited in
handling such splendid stock.
Entire satisfaction is expressed by Messrs.
Hippler d Collier in speaking of their ex-
tensive sales. Their larger sized toilet
cases sold rapidly and of these they have
but few left. In the medium sizes they
have had to draw on their reserve. They
still have the most elaborate and largest
toilet case ever exhibited in st. Paul. 1t is
not for sale. Buyers ask for novelties that
they had seen and fancied at Hippler &
Golfers. In some cases these have been
disposed of and they take other articles in
stead. 1t was we'll that Hippler and Col
lier laid in such an abundant supply with
which to meet the extensive calls of their
customers, for the demands upon them for
holiday goods are heavy and their phar-
macy trade, especially in the finest perfum-
cries and fancy goods, is more than salts
factory.
These gentlemen say: "We have laid in
this elegant stock to sell and to keep our
business before the public. That's why our
prices justify such free sales, and therein
lies the success of our business.

AnImportant Move.

The progress in art is evidently greatly
on the increase in this city. especially in
matters relating to pictures and interior
decorations. One of the most important
developments in this line is seen In the re-
moval about to take place of the we'll
known firm of Blakemore & Angel from IL
East Seventh street to 25 East Seventh
street, where they have secured a commo-
dious store which will be conducted as a
tirst-class art emporium.
They intend, from this date, to carry a
full line of artists materials, steel engrav-
ings, imported German photographs, oil
paintings and water colors; also framing
materials of all grades.
This firm has already won for itself an
enviable reputation in its smaller quarters,
and in its new venture, which will be a
credit to st. Paul, it is certainly deserving
OF the support and patronage of all lovers
of art in this section. Notice of the for
NAL opening of the new store will be given
later.

AMONG THE OLD HOUSES.
Elegant Features of One of Our
heSI.KnOWn ESinblish ments.

One of our oldest and most substantial
signs bears the name of John Matheis, who
has for many years been we'll and very
favorably known in the carpet business at
II East Third street. His stock includes
the most elegant goods, and his exhibit of
curtains in laces and other choice goods, is
matchless in extent, quality and reasonable
ness of prices. John Matheis can be de-
pended upon to give his customers entire
satisfaction. and the fact that his store is
the favOrite with our leading people is a
sufficient indication Of the estimation in
which he is held. His stock should be seen
before the magnificent holiday line of cur
tains, draperies. carpets and artistic decora-
tons is reduced by purchasers of Christmas
goods.
