rather petite, though she dresses so well
that she looks taller than she really
is. Mrs. Childs generally arranges
her fine glossy tresses i'll the
sweet old style, parted straight
down the middle and combed quite
smoothly over the temples. Her toilets,
it must be Superfluous to suggest, are
mnumerabe. Yet ordinarily she dresses
In the simplest taste. If she were to
pass by this moment she probably
would have Oh cloth gown of some
shade of brown, perfectly fitting, but
devoid of ornaments. A dainty French
bonnet of some shade of brown velvet,
with feather, perhaps, and touch of
gold, would rest upon her well-poiSed
head, the brown ribbons tied in bow
under her chin or under the ear. You
probably wouldn't see any jewelry; eX-
fept perhaps a pair of diamond ear
rings, moderate in size, but of the first
Duality. She would walk with her

She is invited everywhere. From the
beginning of December until the coming
Of Lent invitations fall upon her like
cloud of snow. But she accepts scarcely
my of them. She is, perhaps, the most
Bought-fOr woman in Philadelphia. and
The most rarely seen out. Mrs. Childs
Dn her own part, however, entertains a
good deal in quiet way in her own
house. She is particularly fond of
meeting her friends at table in her SUI
perb dining room. Even at the most
ordinary dinner one or two men serve,
and at large dinners there is sometimes
man servant for nearly every guest.
The table service is something that
any hostess might be proud of. 1t would
grace the presidents table. 1t would
indeed be a revelation to the capital.
Nothing like it has been seen in the eX-
ecutive mansion, even since the days
when Mrs. Washington took primitive
If wifcly pride in her few cups and
plates. Nothing like 1t is to be seen, in
feed, in any other house in the coun-
Try. No, not even in the establishment
pf the late Mrs. John Jacob AStOr. Like
the late Mrs. AStOr, Mrs. Childs also
possesses a superb gold dinner service.
In addition, she has no end of silver,
and, what is of more consequence, she
has an incompatible treasury of china
and glass. Then there are the god and
silver and cut-glaSS candelabra, and
other decorations, worth, if figures may
be permitted. some $4,000. To see her
table spread for splendid dinner
with perhaps the Neapolitan china

something well worth the fatigue of

She makes charming hostess, too.
And, indeed, how could she be other?
for she has had years of social expert
tence of the best kind, and has perhaps
entertained more people of distinction
than any other woman in America.

NEW YORK, December 13-A roman
tic story was recently sent from Edin-
burgh about the discovery of the heirs
of Thomas H Blythe, the California
millionaire. Now comes another stor,
which appears to strongly establish tie
rights of another lot of claimants.
According to this new story the ri, b
Californian originally came from Lon
don, where his nephews, Thomas and
James Savage, and his cousin, Miche,
Savage. have been engaged as chimn' y
sweeps for thirty years. The real name
of Thomas H Blythe is said to haN e
been Thomas II. Savage. When a lac

for stealing silver cruet stand. There
he got ticket of leave and answered to
the name of Blythe, which belonged to
his aunt. From Australia he went to
California and amassed the fortune
now in litigation. Testimony to estab-
lIsh these facts has been sent to the
probate court of San Francisco by the
Savages in London, who in the near
time are following the chimney sweep
ing business.
There is still another feature in the
case which brings in thirty claimants.
1t is said Blythe went to London in 1873
and fell in love with a woman named
Julia Perry. This woman became the
mother of a child named Flora, of
which she told Blythe he was
THE FATHER.
When he went back to California he
acknowledged Flora as his child; even
though she be Legitimate, under the
laws of California, Flora can inhe rit
Blythe's millions if she can prove he Is
her father. Flora has taken steps to
esta blish her claims.

THE HUGEST TRUST" OF ALL.
An Attempt to Combine the Wholesale
Grocers to Keep up Prices.
by Telegraph to the New York Her


MINNEAPoLIs, MINI, March g.
Within the last few days every whole
sale grocer Of Minneapolis has received
circular letter looking to the forma-
ton of what, on its face, appears to be
an ubiquitous and gigantic trust. "Un-
ion" is what it is proposed to call the
new pool, but under any name the idea
is the same, and it is an organization of
the wholesale grocers of the United
States for the purpose of manipulating
prices.
This circular is sent out by firm of
wholesale grocers of Milwaukee. 1t is a
proposition to form a pool. The idea OF
forming a combination to regulate the
price of sugar, it proceeds, has been rid
iculed SO often that the firm sending
out the circular was "almost afraid to
mention it' to any one until several
leading grocers had approved it. 1t is
suggested that pool be formed, and
that every member deposit, in cash,
with the treasurer an amount equal to
at least one per cent. of the total sales
per annum Of the firm such member
represents.
Ruling prices shall be telcgraphed
each day to each member by a COM
nlittee appointed for the purpose, and
those prices must be adhered to under
strict penalty. In each section of the
country an investigation committee
shall be appointed to investigate firms
report d as cutting association prices.
Then comes the regulation monopoly
move. "To avoid this cutting" the
circular says, 'it would be no difficult
matter to arrange with the Sugar Trust,
as well as with refineries not in the
trust, that they sell this product only
to members Of this association. This
would compel every one to join ard at
the same time bind every one to live up
to the rule
a prominent Minneapolis grocer pro-
nounccd it new "combinen that would
surpass in power and extent any mo-
nopoly ever yet formed. 1t proposes,
in short, to so increase the profits on
sugar that the amount Of the deposit
rec, ,uired will be small in comparison.
He says the wholesale trade of the
United States in their line is at least
$4,000, 100000, figuring on population
of 80, 100000 on an annual expenditure
of S335 each. One per cent. of this or
$4,000, 900, is to be deposited. Consum-
ers of the country would be compelled
to pay an additional sum for their SUI
gars so large that s20,000,0O0 would be
small in comparison.

Written by the President in an Album.
[Pittsburg Press.

A lady went to the white house re-
Gently to obtain the Presidents auto
graph. Handing Mr.. Pruden, the ex-
ecutive clerk, bright, clean sheet of
tinted note paper, with her monogram
upon it, she requested that gentleman
to ask Mr.. Cleveland to inscribe his
name thereon. Mr.. Pruden, always
obliging, went to the Presidents private
office to secure the favor for the lady.
Returning in few moments he said /:
"The President sends his compliments,
and says that if you will bring your
autograph album he will be glad to
write his name in it, but he never puts
his signature upon a blank sheet of
paper"
The lady was rather. taken aback,
but, thanking Mr.. Pruden for his kind
ness, returned home to bring her al
bum. The book being trife dingy in
appearance, and also quite full of auto
graphs, she determined to purchase
new one, and have the Presidents sig
nature to "start it," Proceeding to
Ballantyne's book. store on the ave-
nue., she bought new and handsome
album and repaired to the white house,
arriving there within twenty minutes
from the time she had left. Mr.. Pru-
den, smiling, took the book, and re-
paired to the President to obtain his
autograph for the persevering lady.
Returning, he gave the book to the
lady, who, thanking him, left for her
home. Upon arriving there, she opened
the album to gaze on the valued in
scription and found the following:

EST STABLISHED 1868.

Some Of the trains which were SNOW
bound at Bristol did not arrive here un-
til yesterday All had suffered more or
less from cold and hunger. On some Of
the trains only crackers and water could
be procured, and on this scanty fare
they lived for day or more. The conf
pany did everything in its power to get
trains through, but the wind blew so
hard that as fast as they cleared a way it
would fill up again. Not until yester-
day afternoon did any Philadelphia
train get through bearing the mails and
a few newspapers. The latter sold at 4
premium, bringing in some instances as
high as IS cents each. The Philadelphia
and Reading Road is terribly blockaded
also.
The Legislature has not been in SeS-
sion this week, the first time such
thing has occurred in the history Of the
State. On Tuesday there were only
three members present, and a few more
arrived yesterday on trains from South
Jersey. Reports from all sections Of the
State, which begin to come in steadily,
show that the country roads are entirely
filled up and travel is next toan impos-
sibility.
Milkmen and produce dealers were
unable to enter the city for two days,
and there was great dearth of these ar
ticleS.

CIRCUMyENTING THE BLIZZARD.
Two Live Papers Combine and by Using a
Telephone and the Telegraph Get
the News from Two Centres.
IPhiladelphia Times, March II.

philadelphia Times, March H.
The last generation would have
thought the Philadelphia and New
York newspapers of yesterday rather
progressive journals, even when they
were cut off from days record of the
worlds doings; but the present genera
ton, used to the fullest and freshest
news from every civilization of the
globe, regarded yesterdays paper as
dull and lifeless. Everybody fretted
over one day without the news, and for
the first time intelligent readers appre
ciated the matchless offices Of the mod
ern newspaper.
The Times was the only Philadelphia
newspaper that managed to get reason
ably full news from Washington and
New York. The telegraph was knocked
clean out by the blizzard, but the Times
corraled the telephone and finally got
line in operation between this city and
New York, by which it received exclu-
sive news of the general prostration of
business and of the destruction caused
by. the storm in Gotham. The New
York Herald managed to get a tele-
graph line in operation on Monday
night between Washington and Phila-
delphia, but here it was halted. The
Times and the Herald pooled their
special Washington telegraph wire and
special New York telephone and both
received Washington and New York
news, while most other journals had to
do wild guessing all around.
The telegraph lines were greatly i'm
proved yesterday and last night, but
they are yet broken in many sections,
and it will be several days before there
can be an entire resumption Of the
complete news of the world usually
furnished by the progressive Journal
ism OF to-day. The people are now
restive under one days loss Of the full
record of every civilization of the earth,
but it so seldom happens that they can
afford to be patient under the sacrifice.
