Capital Girls, These.

Washington Critic.
The craze for young women to be
something and TO do something, has
struck Washington very hard. Miss
INLAND Fuller, the daughter of the
chief justice. who was graduated al
Wellesley college the other day, is to
read law with her father, and is to be
lawyer. If she will put on the stunning
black gown and mortarboard cap in
which Ellen Terry argues her case she
will be something nice to look at. An
other of the chief Justices culver full
of daughters is studying music profess
sionally in Germany. Miss Pauline
Fuller ruined her professional prospects
by getting married. Senator Wade
Hampton's daughter, of South Carolina,
the very bluest of blue bloods. is study
ing in Baltimore to be a professional
nurse, while Representative Breckin-
ridges daughter Is one of the teachers
in public school in Washington. AS

regular fad, and several charming So

This is not so very much in excess of
the cost of the Philadelphia fair of
1876. 1t shows that a great deal of
money must be advanced to inaugurate
it before there are any returns. The
Philadelphia exposition had an appro-
priation of S1,000,0O0 from the state,
s1.50O,00O from Philadelphia, and guar

successfully that they secure the old

visitors are fleeced, as they submit to it
more readily.

feet of stimulating the rivalry between
New York, Washington and Chicago
for the distinction of being chosen as
the site for the great worlds fair of
1892. The average American is always
ON the make, and the average American
city is always ambitious of distinction
that has gains coupled with it. The
Washington people are relying on their
local advantage of having the members
of congress always with them. The
New York people have organized by
appointing permanent exposition COM
mittee: but, true to the Gotham instinct,
there is yet no definite understanding
about the guaranty fund. It has re-
manned for Chicago to go at the work in
the most business-like way OF all by put
ting up 100000 bid for the exposi
ton, with the understanding that as
much more as necessary shall be added.
That settles it in favor of Chicago, I'M
less the sentime ntal idea of holding the
exposition at the national capital should
prove too strong. New York wouldn't
venture S., 100000 on an option on the
whole American continent.

Old Hiram around Butte City,

III twenty-five years.
An old acquaintance met him at the AS

Uncle Hi, you find New York very
much changed since you saw it last?
Its big buildings, its big bridge. its ele-
waited railways, electric lights. new ho-
tells, etc. must be rather astonishing to
you?" Yes" replied Hiram, this town
has changed good deal but there is one
thing that strikes ME as being very re-
markable indeed. The last time | was
here a man could not 60 very far from
the AstOr house of an evening, if he had
any money in his clothes, without being
hit with sandbag or a piece of lead
pipe and his money taken away from
him. Now, | was down at Monmouth
Park the other day at the races, and l
saw the same fellows who used to do the
sandbag business mounted On boxes,
and people were going up and giving
them their money without any violence
on either side. l think they call them
bookmakerS now. This is the most re-
markable change ever saw in nv life.o

and st. James and moved to the new To-
cality. In time it is notunlikely that many
others will follow them, for the modern
houses are far superior to those in the long
settled portions of the town.
CHAMBERLAIN LOCATION.
Joseph Chamberlain with his young
American wife lives in the new quarter.
The houses are large, the situation very
pleasant and anyone may become a neigh
Dor of Mr.. Chamberlain by paying S120 per
week for the season. One will get ten bed
rooms, two bathrooms and five parlors for
the money but will have to get stables else
where.
At Princes Gate, within stones throw,
a similar house may be had for 81, 900 year.
1t is to be remembered, of course, that all
these houses are fully furnished with linen,
tableware, in fact every detail necessary for
housekeeping in good style.
1t is when people are content to move to
the outskirts of London, that they are con-
fronted with the choice of excellent houses
at reasonable rents In Pembroke road, for
instance, you find a large furnished house
with large garden, tennis ground and
stables which cost only about 81, 200 year,
while in Onslow Garden a house of 16
rooms, with good stabling and house maid
thrown in, may be secured for $50 week.
These houses are very largely sought after
by Americans coming here for month or
two, and indeed there is no better way to
live for large family than to take up quar-
ters of this sort, for the hotels in London
are less satisfactory than those of any other
city in the world. English people do not
patronize hotels when they can help it, and
facilities for renting houses for short terms
are numerous. BLAKELY HALL.

HIS TRUCK A BATTERY,
Driver O'Keefe Has an Experience With the
Electric Fluid.
New York Press.i

New York Press.i
When everybody in Brooklyn was ex-
pecting swirling storm Of wind and dust
yesterday afternoon, the rain came down in
torrents instead, and the lightning played
some harmless pranks in several sections
of the city. 1t was not, however, accom-
panied with the destruction of property and
loss oflife that marked last weeks tempest.
The only case reported of any one being
affected by the electricity with which the
atmosphere was surcharged during the
storm was that of Patrick O'Keefe, young
truck driver of % years.
he was driving down Third avenue
when the storm overlook him, and after
several flashes of lightning he noticed the
fluid jumping about in blue tongues of fire
on the metal work of his truck. He says
also that flashes of light were emitted from
the names and tails of his horses. He was
unconscious of his danger until a binding
flash came as he reached the corner OF
Union street and hurled him from his truck.
His horses stood trembling in terror, prob
ably too benumbed by the shock to run
away. O'Keefe was carried into a corner
liquor store and an ambulance was sum-
moned, for it was thought he had received
fatal shock.
Surgeon Reed arrived and applied RENE
dies that in an hour completely restored
the victim of the lightning. When the
storm had cleared away he left for home lit
tie the worse for his experience with the
fluid. His horses walked lame, but he said
they would come around all right.

GERMS OF CONSUMPTION.
Pathologists of the Board of Health Say
Disease is Not Inherited.

Pathologists of the Board of Health Say
Disease is Not Inherited.
New York Tmes.I
The report Of the Pathologists of the
Board of Health concerning the manner in
which tuberculosis is transmitted from ami
mails to man, and from one human being to
another, deals with subject to which the
attention of sanitarians and physicians in
all parts of the civilized world has
recently been directed. We have frequently
spoken of the remarkable discoveries made
in the last few years by bacterioIogists with
respect to the minute organisms that are the
cause, either directly or indirectly, of infec-
tious diseases. Among the diseases that are
transmitted by means of characteristic
bacillus or microbe is this dread malady,
consumption, to which are due one-seventh
of the recorded deaths in this CITY,
The boards pathologists declare that
tuberculosis is distinctly preventable
disease" that it is not directly inherited,
and that it is acquired by the direct trans
mission of the tubercle bacillus or germ
from the sick to the healthy. 1t has been
held by some that while majority of cases
are caused DY QlrecG ITauSu1SSlOn OF Lne
microbes, entering the system with food or
air, others are really inherited. The boards
pathologists do not seem to admit that in
any instance the malady is inherited, and
this conclusion is in accordance with
the recent tendency of research in
this field. The Introduction of
the disease depends largely, however,
upon the physical condition of those who
are exposed TO infection, and it should be
noted that the children of tuberculous per-
sons may be peculiarly susceptible to infec-
tion because of inherited physical weakness.
1t is pointed out that the mortality due to
tuberculosis may be decreased by thorough
disinfection and by measures taken to pre-
vent the pollution of the air by the germs of
bacilli. As it is well known that the germs
may be transmitted to human beings from
tuberculous cows and beef cattle in meat
and milk, it is shown that for the protection
Of the public there should be most rigid
official inspection of such animals.
The Nation and the States are spending
great sums of money every year in suppress
sing pleuro-pneumonia by condemning and
killing all cattle that have that disease.
This action is not taken for the preservation
of the health of human beings. The meas
ures for the suppression OF tuberculosis in
cows and beef cattle should not be less
severe, for in this case the public health
suffers, and the human death rate is in
creased by the prevalence of the disease
among the animals. .

SUGGESTIONS FOR MOTHERS.
What to Do When One of the Little Ones
Has the Earache or Group.

What TO Do When One of the Little Ones
Has the Earache or Group.
One of our little girls has been troubled
with earache ever since her babyhood, says
a writer in Good Housekeeping. No sores
have gathered, but cold or exposure to
strong wind is almost certain to cause her
acute suffering with earache. After trying
almost everything 1 have seen or heard rec
commended, have settled on this applica-
tion as giving surest and quickest relief.
1t is flannel bag stuffed with hops and
wrung from hot vinegar. 1 lay the bag
over the child's ear, as hot as she will bear
it, cover the whole side of the face with dry
flannel, and change the hop bag as often
as it becomes cool. The warm steam fill
ing the child's ear, soon relieves the pain.
Stuffng the ear with the "heart of a
warm onion, :" tricklings of molasses, wads
of peppered cotton and Jumps of mutton
tallow have never yet, in my experience,
eased earache, and such irritating masses
crowded or poured into the delicate laby-
rinth of the ear may do much mischief.
Another child is the victim of legache,
inherited probably, for well do we remem-
Der what we suffered with Its tortures In our
own childhood. Heat and moisture gave
relief, and, following in our mothers loot
steps, we have routed night after night
from our warm quarters, in the dead of
winter, to kindle fires and fill frosty kettles
from water pals thIckly crusted with ice,
that We might get the writhing pedal e1-
tremities OF our little heir into a tub of hot
Water as quickly as possible. But lately
we have learned that all this work and ex-
posure is needless. We simple wiring towl
from salted water-a bowl of 1t standing
in our sleeping room ready for such an
emergency-wrap the limb in it from ankle
to knee, without taking the child from the
bed, and then swathe with dry fannels,
thick and warm, tucking the blankets about
him little closer, and relief is sure.
A croupy cough can often be loosened and
prevented by swathing the throat with dry,
warm fannels; thick pack of them to
sweat the throat and chest often helps SO
rapidly that it is not necessary to sicken
the child with ipecac or to wake the house
kindling fires or preparing hot packs.
