Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1889-01-12

The friends of vice-President-elect Morton
are quietly looking over the available proper
ties for his occupancy during his official resi-
dence at Washington. The large mansion Of
the late Mrs. Patten, while spacious enough for
the family and social requirements Of the
millionaire chief officer of Congress, occupies q
jug-handle geographical position with refer
ence to the center of fashionable popu-
lation of the capital. It is at the
extreme end of everything associated
with the polite world of the capital.
A more feasible scheme now on foot is to Sc
cure the mansion Of the late W. w. Corcoran,
Washington's millionaire and philanthropist.
The body of this building was the residence of
Daniel Webster while Secretary of State and
premier Of the administration Of Willard Fill
more, and was purchased from him by Mr..
Corcoran in the ffties. The new proprietor
added the two spacious wings, occupied by the
ballroom and picture gallery on one side and
the library on the other. While the
interior is somewhat old-timey in de-
sign it is rich and artistic. The
dining-room il superbly carved, and while the
finish is in soft painted woods. the Introduction
of fresh coat Of white paint and gilt, with
some touches on the frescoes would be quite
in style, according to the finish Of the wood
work OF the entertainment parlors Of the White
House. The library il in medeval style, and
the parlors large and handsome.
The friends Of the vice-President are dis
posed to favor this selection. Il has Q hall
square OF ground walled in and beautified
along the fashionable Connecticut avenue. The
mansion fronts on Lafayette park, opposite the
executive m ansion. Dr. B. B. K

THEY WILL BE MISSED.

The disappearance of the genial Russo euton
de Strive and his sturdy slavic wife, the
daughter of the brave Onnenkof, controller.
general Of the empire, will be sadly felt in the
corps as well as in Washington society. Notonly
did she give grand balls, but was fond of horse
racing and other sports. In her courage and
spirit Of determination she had all the charac-
teristics OF u woman of so warlike q race as the
Muscovite and the Cossack. Her daughter Vera,
who has all the spirit of her mother, would
have made her debut this season had her
mother returned to Washington this year.

FANcIEs in BOOKS.
Extravagant Prices Recently Paid for Ger.
tDYtNt tain First Editions,

NJ ftlt tain FIRST EOtt1Onss
A summary of the English old book
market shows that illustrated first editions
are bringing prices that not long ago would
have been considered extravaganza. Works
relating to the American continent during
the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries
realize enormous sums; fine specimens Of
old Typography are rising in the market, as
are works printed in Scotland before 100,
and early editions of old English authors,
old Bibles, Testaments and typographical
works.
The value of secondhand works on nat
tural history depends on whether their
plates are colored, those with colored plates
bringing high prices and the uncolored ones
being practically unstable. Art works are
falling; antiquarian, genealogical and her.
aldic works are stationary; theological and
technical works sluggish, and old Greek and
Latin classics, save here and there where
special beauty of Typography recommends
them, are being knocked down in parcels
and inferior lots. .u
A curious development is fad for orig
inal editions of comparatively modern
authors, whose works were issued in parts,

owners, therefore, who tore of, or allowed
their binders to tear of, the paper covers
from the original books, thus threw away
what proves to be worth, to the taste Of
buyers of the present day, many times as
much as the rest Of the book, letter-press
and Illustrations.

TEASING CHILDREN.
A Concentrated FOOliahness That Some
silly People Are Guilty Of

A Concentrated Fooliahness That Some
silly People Are Guilty OF.
Children are largely what they are made
to be. The faults Of their parents and the
evils Of their rearing are fixed in children,
to be part Of their character when they
have grown up. They may be taught to be
petulant, irascible, quarrelsome, and quick
to form their conclusions in ignorance; or
self-contained, habitually demonstrating
their conclusions, polite and Of restrained
temper. The practice OF teasing children
is concentrated foolishness that some
people ore guilty Of. If child has little
weakness, they make that subject or irri-
tation for the purpose Of seeing the picture
Of the angry little one, distorted with . pas
sion that does not belong to II, and they
laugh at the sight Of the injury they have
wrought. But if the child is resentful under
this provocatinn, they are Mortified. the
child IL impudent or vicious and it ought to
be punished. There are two kinds Of chill
dren who do not mind teasing. One is Of .
naturally amiable disposition and will take
q good deal Of teasing before resenting It !,
and the other doesn't care and would -
soon be tormented - praised

How to Stay Young.

Show to Get Strong and How to Stay
So" was the title Of little book that =
few years ago was very popular with
people interested in physical culture.
But book which should tell us how to
stay young would be still more popular.
Saying nothing about the tabled "Foun-
tain of YOUTH" which Ponce de
Leon searched for, there is no question
that much may be done to stay young.
The observance of sound and sensible
hygienic rules, the use of suitable and
wholesome food, and keeping regular
hours, will do much to preserve youth.
One Of the greatest helps is to avoid
worry: When you travel, the best way
to avoid all worry is to take 1.-THE Bur-
lington." Its smooth tracks, its luxurious
sleeping cars, and the delicious meals
furnished on its peerless dining cars,
make "worry" absolutely impossible.

ages, write to Phil Gibson, Agent, G. B.
