MRS. ROBERT LINCOLN.
characteristics of the SIf. of Our Munster
tn ~. James.

Charac eristics of the Wife of Our Munster
to IT. James.
Mrs. Robert L. Lincoln. wife of the
new Minister to the court of St
james, is the daughter of ex-senator
Harlan. of Iowa, vino was in the Cab
met of Abraham Lincoln during his
first administration. She was married
in Washington in 1868.
1t was during her fathers residence
at the Capital and that of President
Lincoln that Mary Harlan became
acquainted with Robert L. Lincoln.
Il do not know any thing about
their courtship." said one of the inti-
to me, yesterday. Lincoln was
always an undemOnstrative young
man. while Mary Harlan was viva
cious girl, and fond of society,
although not given up to it. fancy
that Mary had to do most of the court
ing in her own sweet and winning
way. The wedding. as recall it. was
not a swell affair, as society would
have it.
Mrs. Lincoln Is about forty years OF
age and Is the mother of three
children. Some say four. One of
these is an attractive young woman in
her manner and Is about seventeen
years of age. She bears a striking
resemblance to her grandmother. Mrs.
Abraham Lincoln. She has had the
advantages of Il liberal education and
the social requirements incident to
Washington life, although she is not
yet debutante.
Mrs. Lincoln has many friends in
this city, of course. Her home Is on
the LakeshOre drive. near those OF
Potter Palmer and Franklin Mac
Eeagh. She has delighted her friends
with numerous receptions. She has
none OF the nonsense about her
in a social way that is so
characteristic OF the average So
ciety woman. Her receptions are
given to her intimate friends, ant
the number is never enlarged for the
purpose OF including women of rank.
or women whose husbands are
weighted down with titles. She has
never courted the social columns OF
the press. On one occasion, about
a year ago. she gave reception and
one of the papers sent young lady to
write ii up. Mrs. Lincoln received
her cordially and said she would
prefer that no notoriety be given to
the event. The young lady reporter
said she had her orders and she had TO
obey. Mrs. Lincoln laughed and said:
Very well. then i will help you.
You will come in with me and be intro
duced. and you will be one of the
party"
The young lady pleaded that she
was not attired for any such occasion,
but Mrs. Lincoln took her by the arm
and led her through the parlors, MAX
ing her quite at home. After the re-
ception. Mrs. Lincoln assisted the re-
porter in making up her list of names.
IL this may be taken rs an index OF
Mrs. Lincoln's character, the United
States will have nothing to fear from
the wife of its Minister to the court of
st James. Mrs. Lincoln is not what
the world would call a beautiful
woman, but she attracts with her
which is said TO be almost be-
witching. Chicago Times.

The European lady is the idiot Of

the pen of Prof. James Bryce. an
English gentleman and scholar who

ogy:
The average European man has
usually "a sight sense of condescen-
sion when he talks 40 n woman on
serious subjects. Even II she is his
superior in intellect, in character. i'm

he Is her superior. and, consciously or

She is too much accustomed 10 this to

cross an Americans mind. He talks

can lady does not expect to have con-
versation made Co her. 1t is Just as
much her duty or pleasure to lead it
as the mans is, and more often than
not she takes the burden from him, I
darting along with gay vivacitv !.
which puts to shame his slower wits. |
1T need hardly be said that the I
community at large gains by the soft !
ening and restraining influence which |
the reverence for womanhoOd diffuses.
Nothing so quickly incenses the people
as an Insult offered to woman.
Wife-beating. and indeed any kind of
rough violence offered to women. is
far less common among the rudest
class than it is in England. Field

Snappy People.

There is such a thing as a snappy
railroad conductor. When he an
nounces the name of depot he bites
off the first letter and the last syllable.
1t is at your peril you ask him the
name of the next station. While you
are deciding in which of your eight
pockets you put your ticket, he gapes
upon you devouringly, as much as to
say, II have you now! You expected
to get ride without paying for it
eh?" If you venture to tell him that
the car is very cold, he will freeze you
still worse with wondering stare. If
you ask whythere is no water on the
train, he will throw over you the wet
blanket of curt reply, and that is wa
ter enough. He is snappy to the old
lady who is too long getting off, and
the old gentleman who is too long get
ting on snappy about where you put
your feet, snappy about where you set
your yalise. Before many miles all
the passengers feel the contagion from
having been bitten by such a snappy
disposition, and so they get snappy
foo
