creased determination to Guido each
other. Vanderbilt still depends upon his
music, and Rockefeller upon his dogs and
horses. Their rivalry will last through
their college course and beyond it, when
they become leaders in New York society.
In the spring of 49, when they graduate,
old Yale may see two spreads such as
were never given under the shadow of her
elms.
Both the young men are of good stature.
Vanderbilt looks very much like his
father He has full but rather pale face,
with dark eyes and hair. He is cultIyat-
ing a mustache. but is not having much
luck with it. He is of pleasant address,
but naturally very exclusive. Rockefeller
is iollier in demeanor He has ruddy,
smooth face, and dark eyes and hair
Two other rich young men are giving
promise of great future usefulness to So
ciety. They are Edwin Gould and young
Phil Armour. The latter is out OF \ ale
about two years. He is % years old, OF
medium stature, and Jovlal cast OF coun-
tonance. Eddie Gould is about year
younger. He is quiet in his bearing but IL
il thought that he will make the hrst real
social success in the history Of his family.
At present his prediction is rather in the
direction of athletic sports and outdoor
life, but of late he has figured in several
prominent society eventS-as usher IN one
or two small weddings for instance-and
there is every reason to believe that ne VIII

from his brother George. who Inherlts
many of his fathers traits. he goes about
his business in his fathers office at the
Western Union building with his coat on
and an air of conspicuous democracy
about him. But Eddie Is more fastidlOus.
He belongs to two or three Of the most
fashionable clubs, and likes TO consOrt
with the swell men about town. A year
ago. when Eddie took his little dyer IN
stocks with the result of making cool
100000 in a very quick timel he invested
in some magnificent horses and a small
dog cart. He quarters his team az a fash
ionable livery stable. and when he rides
in the park as he does frequently,
the marriageable girls look az him
in a way 10 make him blush. When ~

nards. Although il vas said that kocke-

yet he has not kept pace With Rockefeller
in the matter Of horses.

tives for the last sixteen years and has
always maintained high positson on the
Democratic side of the chamber. He was
talked of for the speakershlp at the time
that Carlisle was elected some years ago
and there is no Democrat who has so large
part in the Congressional Record as he.
His business throughout life has been that
OF politician and statesman, and IN his
work he has had good help
meet in his accomplished wife,
Mrs. Rebecca Ruter Springer. Mrs.
Springer is a woman of remarkable liter
airy ability. She has thorough under
standing of political questions, and she is
a bright conversationalist on almost any
topic. She has during her long residence
at Washington made many acquaintance,
and she is noted mere for her earnest and
practical interest In church work.. Her
knowledge of men and of public questions
enables her to be of much assistance to
her husband, and their combined aims,
added to their universal grod-fellowship
and kindness, combine to make their home
the center of the most genial hospitality of
congressional circles. This home is located
on Capitol Hill and not far away from
the House of Representatives. Represen-
tative Springer owns his own house here
and this is thronged weekly during
the season, and / venture that the major
ity of the women of Washington, as TO the
leading lady of the lower House, would be
in favor of Mrs. Springer. for she is better
known, perhaps, than any of the others.
Mrs. Springer is petite in person. She has
large dark eyes, which show out under q
broad, intellectual brow, Swallowed by
waving locks of hair of frosted silver. Her
face is very characteristic one. The
mouth is firm set and expressive, and it
still has the gentle lines of sweetness and
kindness. She is a strong woman and
charming woman, and if Illinois gets the
speakership she will make noted leader.
Ohio always has a candidate. and its
candidate for the speakership at the pres
ent time Is Representative Cultivate. of
Columbus. If Cultivate is elected, the

or's wife probably understands how to
manage public reception as we'll as any
woman here. The McCreary home in
Kentucky is at Richmond. one of the
wealthiest and most beautiful towns in
that state. It is in the very heart
of the blue grass region, and Gov

the town. but surrounded by yard
so large that he is able TO keep his own
cows aud horses on his city estate, and the
richest of Jersey cream comes from the
home dairy to the table. Mrs. McCreary
is straight, slender woman of medium
height. She has graceful, willowy figure
and has an impulsive way of gree ting you
with both hands extended that renders
you certain of her sincerity of heart. Her
hair of a soft golden brown waves
artisticaily over her low, broad forehead
In pleasing harmony with face Of marked
sweetness of expression. To look at her
you would never imagine that she has two
sons at college, and that her eldest son,
who graduated short time ago at Har-

1t is now Q certainty that this years
cock fighting season is going to be an ex-
tremely bright one. A proof OF the re-
newal of interest is that one of the most
interesting mains that has been made IN
long while has just been arranged between
A. b. Suit, of Suitland, Md, and Anthony
Green, of Sacramento, Cal. A picture
from photograph taken for Mr.. Arthur
Lumley is herewith presented of one of
Mr.. Suits most famous fighting cocks,
The Priest, who has come scatheless from
five matches, in every one of which he
killed his opponent in short order. The
main between California and Maryland
will be fought in the East on September
Z, 1892 ian unusual time, but there are
special reasons for it,, Richard K.
Fox having been made the final stake
holder. The articles of agreement were
signed at his office. Each side is to show
seventeen cocks, the lightweight to be four
pounds eight ounces, and the heavyweight
six pounds four ounces, all that weigh
in" to be fought under the rules of the
New York cockpit, with gafs one and
one-fourth inches in length, the blades
round from socket to point and the sockets
fair and not exceeding three-eighths of an
inch; $500 side has already been depos-
tied, and the final deposit of $500 side
on the main is to be deposited few days
before the battles--January 4, 1892. The
battles are for 800 side, the odd fight for
Sc, 600; $3.50 is allowed for expenses to Mr..
Green, the California side, in consideration
of his fighting the main in New York or
New Jersey.
The cock fighting season proper begins
in the North on Thanksgiving eve, and
lasts until the 1st of June, though only
"stags," "chickens"-birds under one year
old-counting from the LIST of March, not
matured cocks, are fought until about
New Years, and there is very little cock
fighting ligitimately after the lst of May.
A cockpit proper is circular space COW

DAILY LIGHT:
In reply to what Mr.. Bryant said
in Saturdays paper about the
bakers strike, let me ask:
Where did the strike come from?
Did it come from me alone or from his
own men? Didn't they ask me to get
their board paid out? II one Of them
says no, then he speaks falsely.
Didn't call Mr.. Bryant into the
bakery and ask him If that was
enough food for five men to work on
IA to is hours per day? He excused
himself and said it would be better.
Sunday, a week later, he called me
into the shop and said if any Of the
men were not satisfied they could
quit. Three did go, one remaining
