At an official hour In Washington
few nights ago q distinguished
society belle from New York, one OF
McAllister's four hundred, was
observed to handle the wing of q
chicken with her fingers, and after
wards daintily nibble a "drumstick"
the same way, without the use of
knife or fork. Some Of the cabinet
and administration ladies, only one of
whom belongs to the four hundred,
marvelled at this, and thought IL
showed "lack of breeding" The one
authority, Mrs. whitney, remarked
that the action of the young lady was
in perfectly good form. The list of
things that can be eaten from the
fingers is on the increase.
Ii includes all bread, toast, tarts
and small cakes, celery and asparagus,
when served whole, as il should be,
either hot or cold; lettuce, which must
be crumpled in the fingers and dipped
in salt or sauce olives, to which a
fork should never be put any more
than knife should be used on q raw
oyster; strawberries, when served
with the stems on, as they should be,
are touched to pulverized sugar |;
cheese in all forms, except Brie or
lioquefort or Cumbefort, and fruits
of all kinds, except preserves and
melons. The latter should be eaten
with a spoon or fork. In the use of
the fingers greater indulgence is being
shown, and you connot, if you are
we'll bred, make any very bad mistake
in this direction, especially when the
finger bowl stands by you, and the
napkin is handy.

Saying Eyes 4"

A minister's wife tells some funny
stories about young couples who have
come to her husband TO be married.
On one occasion there came young
couple from the country accompanied
by several friends. The bridal couple
took their places before the minister,
and all went well until the bridegroom
was asked ii he took the young woman
to be his lawful wife.
There was no response, and the
silence had lasted for a few seconds,
when the bride said:
"He's little def; you'll have TO
speak up louder"
The minister, grave, dignified man,
repeated the question in much louder
tone. The bridegroom put one hand
to his ear, leaned forward and said i'm
all equally loud voice, "Hey?"
Then the bride, who had remained
self-possessed through il all, straight
ened matters out by rising TO her
tiptOes, putting her white gloved
hands on the bridegroom's shoulder
and her lips to his ear while she
screamed
Gle says do you want-to marry
-me?"
"Why, of course what else am
here for?" responded the bridegroom,
in surprised tone. And, although
the reply was not quite in form, the
ceremony proceeded to the end.
Another self-possessed bride once
came TO the parsonage with a diffident
and nervous bridegroom. They came
alone. While they were waiting for
the minister to appear, his wife, sitting
in room adjoining the parlor, heard
the young woman speaking words of
encouragement to the young man and
instructing him in the part he was to
take in the ceremony.
"Now be sure that you don't let
yourself get so befuddled as to say mo-
at the place you'd ought to say yes, ,
John, for then we'd have to be married
all over again, and, like as not, he'd
charge double"
The double charge was not made,
however, for John said eyes" in a
bashful, scared manner, when the time
came for him to declare himself.

FINE YACHT RACES

Sailed or Newport in a Gale-The
 Titania Wins the Morgan Cup.
 NEWPORT, Sept. 19.-The first two of the special races off here were sailed to-day. There WAS plenty of wind, in fact, more than the smaller yachts could stand. Several that entered did not start for this reason. In class A, for third-class schooners and third-class sloops. only the Titania and Bedouin entered, both sloops. In class B, for sloops, cutters and yawls between 40 and 50 feet, the Gorilla, Liris, Papoose and Ava were the only ones in. The owner of the Mariquits thought the race was to be tomorrow. The others who entered and did not start feared that the wind was too strong.
 Before starting the regatta committee de- cided to reduce the course for the large craft to 12 miles to leeward and back, instead of 15, in consequence of the high wind. The other course was 70 miles to leeward and back. Both courses were east-bysouth. The preparatory signal was given at 12:15. The starting signal for the big yachts was given at 12:25 Both yachts were hadicapped. The Titania crossed at 12:30:16, the Bedouin at 12:30:47. Both shook out spinnakers as they crossed the line; but the Bedouin's worked slowly and she lost time in getting it out. The Gorilla was the first of the other fleet to get over the line. Her time was 12:34:01. Papoose 12:34:07, Liris 12:36:06, Ava 12:37, At 12:55 the Liris passed the Pappoose. After this all the yachts maintained their relative positions to the finish, but the lead CTS gained fast. About o'clock all took in spinakers. The Titania and the Bedouin had fine race all to themselves, although hardly close enough to be exciting. The Titsnia gained rapidly on the Bedouin, making a large gap between them. Both were fairly flying before the wind. The Titania rounded the float at LAO, Bedouin at 1:42 INV. q Of the other classes the Gorilla rounded at 1:46; Liris at 1:47:46; Papoose at 1:50:23, Ava at 1:51:15. Shortly after the turn the mast of the Liris broke some ten feet above deck. Everything attached was carried with it. The tug at once took her in tow. The Ava stopped to put in another reef and was unable to finish in the time allowance of 1 five hours. Her time was not taken. |
