The Victory of SIarin.

The Slavin-McAuliffe fight proved the
greatest surprise of the year in pugilistic
circles. Every one seemed so confident
that the Mission Boy" would win that
his defeat in less than seven minutes, and
before the conclusion of the second round
was thunderbolt even to his enemies
McAuliffe and his hackers were so conf
dent that they put up barrel of money
and conceded almost every disputed point
rather than allow the match to fall through,
and then-well, 1.-THE Mission Boy" hardly
seemed to be lin it' after the first round
The only men now in the arena left to
claim Slavin's attention are Sullivan and
Jackson. As McAuliffe gave Jackson a
hard fight, Slavin's recent victory is proof
positive that he is the colored pugilist's
equal, and that in all probability he would
give the great Sullivan an interesting
battle. Slavin is only q years of age. He
was born at Maitland, n. 5. W., and be-
came successfully blacksmith, a gold
digger and an all round athlete. At an
early age he fought his first battle, and
one after another the best men in Aus
tralia, Peter Jackson excepted, succumbed
to his prowess. In December, 1889, he
fought Jem Smith to a draw, but on &C
count of Smiths unfair tactics the Pelican
club declared Slavin champion of Eng
land, which title he still holds.

Organization They Have Formed
Under Masonic lazy women cannot par
tieipate in any of the rites and ceremonies
of Masons. A lodge TO which female relar
1ves Of Masons are eligible has, however,
been formed-the Order of the Eastern
Star its distinctive title.
This order has for its watchword, let
woman ever prove herself Woman's truest
friend" Its badge is the pentsgonal star.
No one can become a member Of the order
unless she is mother. daughter, sister or
wife Of Mason In New York city alone
the membership is 1.24a. Mrs. Eliza Dem
Arrest is the grand matron and Mrs. Chris
tiana Butterick secretary. The names
chosen for the different chapters are most
attractive; for instance, Queen Esther,
Minerva, Crescent, Orient, Rosary. Morn
ing Star, Miriam and Laurel
OF thelatter chapter Mrs. Abbie Hays Ia
the worthy matron and Elizabeth j.
Warner secretary. At the installation of
officers of this chapter an especially inter
esting part OF, the ceremonies is that of in
vesting what is called the Floral Center" of
the chapter with the badges of their Office.
Five sisters represent the five rays Of the
eastern star Adah, as the first sister is
designated, illustrates the binding force of
a VOW. The color and badge given TO her
are blue. Ruth symbolizes devotion to re-
hgious principles, and is typifed by q
golden yellow badge.
The third ray of the star is represented
by Esther, distinguished for her fidelity to
kindred and friends, whose purity Is fifty
shown by snowy white. Martha typifies
undertaking faith in the honr OF trial; her
colors are green. Electa, whose color is
red, symbolizes patience and submission
under wrong. A five rayed floral star
shows these coloTs with which the i've sis
tiers have been invested.
To the warder of the order is presented
badge, door within a star, IAN emblem
of peace, and an admonition that unity
and harmony are essential TO the welfare
of the order"
The prime object of the Order of the
Eastern Star is ito dispense to our sisters
advice in their troubles, sympathy in
their sorrows, aid in their misfortunes-"
Worthy matrons are admonished never to
close chapter without asking, Are any OF
our members sick and in need Of sympathy
or assistanceS"
An effort is always made to cultivate the
social element. to make the meetings home
like, for the sake of those who are not
blessed with homes, and who are perhaps
far from mother, sister or friends, but who
know that in the chapter they will meet
with cordial welcome from their adopted
sisters, and who on that account will feel
encouraged to withstand temptation.
The sisters are content to move in wom-
ans true sphere, shedding light in dark
ened hearts, comforting the Borrowing,
nursing the sick and relieving the dis
tressed. Among the grand matrons Of this
order are Mrs. Augusta Ladd, New Jer-
sey; Mrs. Tanning, Indiana; Mrs. Girls
void, Michigan; Mrs. Alice Cox, Arkansas
Mrs. Moore California; Mrs. Chesney, Kan
sas; Mrs. Ercanbrack, Iowa; Mrs L. j.
Perry, Massachusetts; Mrs Bailey. Con-

heirloom to the lady who presented them
to the singer. Miss Huntington wears
them with white satin gown, and the
effect is very fine.
The lady's pet superstition is over the
number 80" She has signed and begun
so many successful engagements, and
has had otherwise good luck on that
date, that she has come to regard
the number as her mascot. Very many
of her jewels are made in the form
of the figure ''3," and she has numerous
rings-three in number-joined together in
one. Detto, her dog, wears three golden
balls dangling from his collak She sailed
for America on the third of the month, and
was wild with delight when she found her
napkin ring on shipboard numbered 80"
On the street Miss Huntingdon is very
quiet dresser, in no way advertising by her
gowns that she is professional. She is
fond of tailor made tweed gowns, and es-
peclaIly favors dark blue broadcloth cos
TUNES. Her evening gowns are superb
and are usually of white or black In the
accompanying portrait she wears a black
satin, with white fur boa carelessly dis
posed about her whittier shoulders. So
stately is she in this costume that when
she first donned it she was given by her in
innate friends the sOubriquet of "Queenie,"
which pet name has chung to her ever since
Miss Huntington speaks very modestly
Of her success in London, and fervently
hopes that Americans will like her as well
as her English friends. She told me that
she was having a theatre built in London
which Is TO have many American features,
though Of course retaining the pit, as she
laughingly said one could not fancy Lon
don theatre without pit.
I'm London" she said, "at the variety
theatres especially, and even at many of
the others, it is very customary for the au-
dience TO call out TO the actors, encourag-
ing them and calling them by name. Be
tween acts some of my hearers have called

Mr.. Stanley, and the crowd recognizing me,
shouted, Here comes Paul Jonesp and be-
sought me not to go away and wished me
good luck, and SO on, all of which was
naturally very embarrassing.

and an accomplished artist. Miss Hunting

the blind chaplain, page holding his
hand and prepared to lead him to the plat
form. In his private room not far away
the speaker is sitting at fiat table rapidly
affixing his signature to bills and resolu-
tions as they are presented By his clerk.
He glances occasionally at the big clock on
the mantel, and within thirty seconds of
noon rises and walks rapidly into the hall.
As he ascends the steps to his place mem
bers cease conversation and the blind chap
lain is led forward Without sitting down
| the speaker seizes his gavel, raps once in a
| determined sort of way, exclaims 1.-THE
house will be in ORDER" and the daily ses-
sion has begun.
At this very instant two men on the roof
overhead are tagging at the lines, pulling
the big flag to the top of the staff. When
the speakers gavel touched the pounding
board the sergeant-st-arms had pressed an
electric button, a bell had tinkled away up
there on the roof, and the signal was given
| for the unfurling of the flag. Far away TO
the north, across the acres of glass and
gravel roof, and barely visible past the
wall Of the great dome, which here appears
vaster than from any other point of view,
another flag may be seen creeping upward.
In Il second OF two both banners are float
ing in the cool autumn breeze, and the
congress Of the United States is by these
starry tokens known to be in session.
But the man in charge Of the flag must
not leave his post. He may, indeed, retire
to shelter just under the roof, where he
has cory little nook, with heating stove,
cat, pipe and novel But he must go no
farther away. Away up here, seemingly
out of the world, he must stay till. many
hours later. the electric bell strikes twice.
Then he rushes out, lowers his bunting,
rolls and packs it away, and slowly Gescends
the narrow stairs to minsie with the world
again.
/ often reflect, in looking at this huge
building. with its flags flying as signs Of
the activity within, what a world of hu-
man nature. Of human hope, ambition, en-
ergy, struggle and disappointment It con-
tains. Were IL possible for me 20 search il
all out, understand, analyze and describe
it all, what a cyclopedia OF national poll
tics, national characteristics, national &C
tivities we should have. A study Of the
Capitol as o human hive would no doubt
be interesting, but, as a rule, generalitics
are unsatisfactory. This practical, mate
rial world wants particulars. You write
for it poem about the gisn: dome lifting
the brow OF the Goddess Of Liberty into the

Miss Huntingdon is proud Of the fact
that she sang $40 nights in London with
out a hreak-a feat no other American
singer has ever accomplished.
Socially the singer was AS great a success
as srtistically. She was great pet Of the
Baroness Burdett-Coutts and of Lady
Westminster. The Princess of Wales, too,
was greatly interested in her, and one Of
Miss Huntingdons jewels is butterfly Of

IdSSSu, III u u y, HOUR The SLOOCH-
stringy portion. But if Mr.. Houk wishes
to enjoy the luxury of walking on wooden,
and the felicity of the fame won thereby,
what business is it of ours?
To be just to Mr.. Houk, however, who Is
as amiable as he is eloquent, it should be
added here that he is the only man in con-
gress who goes to sublime extremes in his
attire. One day you will see Mr.. Houk as
the congressional SLOUGH, in spotted and
greasy, i'll fitting suit of clothes, dotted
and stresked with tobacco juice and cigar
ashes, and with the bottom of his trousers
under the heels of his coarse rawhide boots.
The very next day, perhaps, you will see
Mr.. Houk the dandy, attired in an elegant
suit made by fashionable tailor, with
neckwear of the neatest, patent leather
shoes, and trousers fair and fitting to look
upon. The Houk of yesterday and the
Houk of today are as unlike as May and
December, and the only explanation of the
eloquent members idiosyncrasy is that
yesterday he expected to see in the gallery
some of his rural constituents from Ten
nessee, while today he is down for few
remarks and has invited number of his
lady friends to come and hear him.
There is the case of Mr.. Springer, of Hi
nois. Probably there is no ADLER, no more
alert or admirable member Of the house
AS leader, a parliamentarian and debater
he ranks with the best men in public life
Yet Mr.. Springer's most famous character
istic is pink bouttOniere! For fifteen
years Mr.. Springer has sat in congress
sat and stood together, for no man is
more often on his feet than he-and in all
that time he has never been seen without
pink bud in his buttonhole. "Mr.
Springer" said l one day, pardon the
personality, but why do you always wear
a pink or red buds" "That is Mrs Spring
er's notion" he replied; 'she is passion
ately fond of flowers. She thinks flower
the emblem of purity and of soul, and al
ways says when she sees man leaving his
home to go to his work with bit OF
flower on his coat that ne goes with lit
tie of the soul of home along with him, to
guide and keep him. A pretty thought, is
1t not? So when | first came to congress
