TWO LITTLE nEIREssEs.

Who win Inherit Nearly One Half of
Mrs. Myra Clark Gaines's Estate.
Two little million heiresses, OF this city,
left for q Virginia boarding school few
days ago. They are Miss Christmas, 49,
yearold daughter of Col. Christmas, and Miss
Zuleine Whitney, his niece, year older. The
little children are grandchildren Of Mrs
Myra Clark Gaines, the famous New Or
leans litigapt, and will, with their three
brothers, inherit the millions which must
ultimately come from New Orleans. They
are both pretty blondes, aud will no doubt
be striking figures In Washington society
when they grow up aud come into their
fortunes. For several years they have been
at boarding schools, aud both are said to be
exceedingly bright.
The other heirs have resided In this city
for some years. One OF them, Mr.. William
Christmas, youth OF 10, has evinced
some artistic talent, and has painted some
really Gne landscape views. The brother,
James, little fellow Of 12, is page in the
House Of Representatives, aud a great
fsvorlte among members. Before the pres
ent. Congress has expired, it is quite
probable that he will retire from
service in the House the owner of more
dollars than nine.tenths of those for whom
he ran messages. The fifth heir is Mr.. W.
w. Whitney, brother Of Miss Zueine. He
is now In Massachusetts, with his widowed
mother, but has been for four years at
Principal Carne's academy, Alexandria.
Besides the amount due the heirs from the
city OF New Orleans, almost 81 200, 900, II is
probable that another million will be added
by the passage OF bill introduced into
Congress last session. By this bill about
4O,CUO acres Of Louisiana lands valued at
something over million are ceded to the
heirs OF Myra Clark Gaines as part Of a
grant from the French government TO an
ancestor. The bill has been reported favor
ably from the committee on private land
Claims, and its passage next session Is re-
garded as likely. So each OF the heirs will
have at out 81, 100000.
