already quite well Known in New York
both as concert and society" singer.
She has been in this city only year,
having recently returned from a two
years course of instruction under the

the lively American colony in the worlds
capital. and often sang at tie houses Of
Mrs. Pell, Nine. Sulsemeyer and Miss

sa1nries OF Housekeepers.

"The best paid women in New YORK
city or any other large city, said a lead
ing employment bureau proprietor t.
me yesterday, "are the first class compe-
tent housckeepers. There are few wo-
men who are really competent to take
charge of households like the Wander
bits, the Astors, and SO on. who are
willing to undertake it The competent
woman has had large house of her own
at some stage of her life and has lost
her fortune. She prefers to make her
living in some other way than house
keeping, because it seems to her Il loss of
dignity.
"In England women are bred to the
profession of housekeepers, just rs they
are taught to be cooks, housemaids, lady'a
maids and so on. Here housekeepers aio
housekeepors by chance more than any
thing else. That is the reason why big
salaries are paid to really competent
women. know one such woman who
enjoys q salary of $1,000 IL year, has her
separate table and u servant to run her
errands. 1t is not infreQuontly that
salaries of $1,000 to $500 are paid"

How Mrs. Custer Surcre.

Mrs. Custer is one of the most widely
sought women in New York society,
Though by no means II society woman.
and permanently saddened by the death
OF the general, she frequently yields to
the opportunities Of friends and goes
forth to become the life and soul of the
circle that sh3 chooses to enter. Two
classes of society hold out welcoming
hands to this gifted lady; the literary
world, on account Of the excellent hooks
that she has added to their libraries and
the social world, because her name and
family entitle 4; 20 enter its domains
1t is said tint Mrs. Custer suffera
acutely in writing of her own and her
husbands war experiences. Each men
stroke brings back the past as viyidlv az
II days, and not years, had intervened
between it and tie present. After an
evening of such scenes with her dead
hero and love, Mrs. Custer retires 70 he-

Nonse Plants.

Many plants taken up this fall and
potted for display indoors during winter
will show the want of skill in the gar
dener by dropping, by change of color of
leaves, and by other signs of slowly
dying. When plants get to that stage
nothing will restore them but heroic
treatment, as none but a gardener can
restore them, and as gardeners do not
hang around our houses, to be at hand
in such emergencies, and rs the plants
will die at any rate, we will give treat
ment which will save them if they have
not gone too far.
Heat water up to about ITO degrees,
and with it water the plants as usual;
next day use water up to 1876 degrees,
next day up to $50 degrees; pursue this
five or six days and fine growth will
result. The rationale is that the hot
water expands the sap and sap channels
and thus forces the sluggish sup into
vigorous circulation, and when that is
established the plant only requires
common attention. -Gcrmantown Tele-

should be poured down, or if the pipe IL
full of cold water the next best thing Is
to get as much soda into 1t as possible:
This will soften the mass below ana
make it as soluble as soap, and in few
hours all will pass away. This beats
irving to thaw out a lead pipe with a
red hot poker, which process is equiva-
lent to killing man to avoid hurting
him. A lead pipe will melt under such
circumstances before enough heat can be
got through it to dissolve ice if there Is
anv there.-Interview in st. / Louie Globe

SMALLPOX.
Mr. JOHN ALLEN AT The CORNER OF
SAN JACINTo AND THIRD STREETS
DOWN WITH THE DISEASE.
eome Seven oil Eight Persons Exposed to
tbe COntagIon Are All Now Under
Rigid Quarantine and No
Danger Apprehended.

Monday week ago Mr.. John Allen
who lives at the corner of san Jat into
and East Third street, was feeling I'M
well and during the day getting worse
he sent sent for DR., Lewright.
He appeared to be suffering with
something like mild catarrhal fever
and nothing was thought Of it. Tues
day he was worse and at his request
DIR. Wooten was called and he thought
Mr.. Allen was only slightly i'll and
would soon be out.
Wednesday and Thursday he was
better and it was reported among his
friends that he would coon be out.
Friday however he was worse and
DIR. Lewright being again called
in discovered slight eruption
that bore some resemblance
TO smallpox. He consulted with
another physician and the two thought
IL best TO take precautionary steps,
notwithstanding the diseased had not
tar enough developed to be pronounc-
ed genuine smallpox.
DIR. Lewright vaccinated those OF the
family who had not been vaccinated
and gave instruction that no visitors
be allowed in the house.
He was called to see Mr.. Allen again
Monday evening. He had grown
worse md the disease had developed
into genuine smallpox and DIR. lie
wright no pronounced it. Mr.. Allen
was 10th to believe it as he had not
been out OF the city for six months
past and had no knowledge OF having
met any one from infected localities.
DR.. Lewright was positive 1t was
smallpox, and yesterday with State
Health Officer Rutherford visited Mr..
Allen. DR.. Rutherford, who stands
high in the medical profession, I'M
hesitatingly and emphatically pro-
nOunced it genuine smallpox, and
steps were taken vt once to establish
a rigid quarantine around the place
and all persons known to have bet n
with the sick man are completely
isolated, and every precaution has
been taken to prevent the spread OF
the disease, and no alarm need be
{, AIRED. There are seven or eight per |
sons in Mr.. Aliens family.
1t is the duty of everyone to get
vaccinated and all children should be.
The poor should be vacclnated by the
city. A we'll vaccinated community |
need have no fear of smallpox. THE
STATESMAN will faithfully report every
case which may occur, and the public
will be kept informed.

Chicago, April s.. At midnight to-

side, however, had practically minimized
its claims to Il plurality Of 200 or 800.

was being awaited with Impotence. The
narrowness Of the margin for either party
and the charges and counter-charees of
fraud is making the suspense at most
distracting. The democrats put forward
ne assertion that in scores of instances
the votes for Elmer Washburn. the citi-
Zcns candidate, were deliberately counted
for Hampstead Washburn, the rcpub-
lican nominee, such substitution being
Facilitated by the similarity of the names.
On the other hand, the republicans pro
test that IN one precinct alone at the
stock yards over 100 votes were depos,
tied for names that were refused regis
tratlon, and that some Of the names are
those of persons who have been dead for
weeks or months. In this particular
precinct, it is charged, the affairs were
so manipulated that every Judge and
clerk without exception was a democrat
and the plurality for Cregier was some
thing abnormal. Not afew people tonight
were inclined to believe the many alleged
mistakes and changes in the estimates
were in the interest Of the gambling fra
tcrnity, and were designed to give certain
big bookmakers a chance to hedge out
on their bets.
