Hermann Oelrichs a Lucky Man.

If were asked to name the man most to
be envived in this town | should unhesitat-
ingly say Hermann Oelrichs. He has abun-
dance of money, but, better than even that,
he possesses perfect health. He never
takes medicine: in fact, he doesn't know
what the taste of drugs is like. He never
has pain or an ache, and he sleeps as
easily as babe in its mothers arms. He
is man of splendid physique, and he at
tributes his good health to plenty of good
bathing, walking, riding, boxing and
fencing He can reel of a dozen miles as
easily as most men can walk for half an
hour.
Mr. Oelrichs has, in addition to his good
health, large fortune, beautiful home, a
handsome wife and 4 young son. l see him
on Broadway every afternoon and in the
evenings he goes to the theaters and the
clubs, and is always the center of an inter-
esting group. He is capital story teller,
and can dress salad as well as the la
mented Sam Ward. What Mr.. Oelrichs
doesn't know about good living is not
worth knowing. He can cook canvas
back or stew terrapin as well as any man
in the world. And it is said he can tell the
age of Burgundy by the rich aroma that
comes from it. He gives superb little din
ner parties to his friends, and is even more
popular as benedict than he was before he
married the wealthy Miss Fair, and was
the best known man about town in these
parts. FOSTER COATES.

Clara Morris and Her Hus band.

Clara Morris is enjoying unusually good
health just now, and, what is perhaps more
to the purpose, she is making great deal
of money on the stage. l saw her on the
stleet the other day with her husband, Mr..
F. Harriott, by her side. No one seemed
to know her, yet it would not be hard to tell
that she was of the stage, for her clothing
was fiashy and her ears blazed with dia-
monds. Mr.. Harriott carried small fistful
of dog in his arms, and man and wife they
trudged along up Broadway with no thoug ht
of what was going on about them.
Mrs. Harriott spent the summer outdoors.
She is graceful horseback rider and has a
fine home and stableful Of good horses at
Riverdale- on-the-Hudson. There, when she
is not acting, she entertains sumptuously
She has great many friends and a great
many charities that she is deeply interested
in. She is very fond of young people, and
she has helped many an ambitious young
woman to success on the stage. Her fame
is secure. She still draws as large houses

"8ab's" Impressions on the
Weddings of Autumn.
NOT OVER ANXIOUS TO MARRY.
Young Wives in Boarding-Hou to
Live a Natural Life-The Right Kind
of Wife-Things Upon Which
Women Agree and Disagree.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE getting and
giving in marriage continues on the in
crease, but the more weddings you go to
the more forcibly you are convinced that
the average bride in New York is neither
young nor beautiful, and that she is per-
fectly capable of looking after the gentle
man by her side, who is counted of so little
worth that he is not even spoken of as best
man at his own wedding. Youth and
beauty used to be supposed to go with
white satin and orange blossoms, but So
called swagger air, and rather blase look
oftenest accompany them nowadays.
NOT MARRYING GIRL.
The New York girl is not over-anxious to
get married; she has too good a time while
she is single, and she doesn't propose to at
Lach herself to one man too early in life: or
even to be counted among the young ma
irons before she is about twenty-eight.
This is pure, ABSOLUTE, feminine selfiShness.
She doesn't want to marry for love; she
wants position, and the man with refined
tastes, whose income is small, will find it
difficult to get bride from among so-called
fashionable girls. He thinks he would like
a dear little wife to welcome him home, and
to listen to him if he wants to talk about his
affairs; or to tell him of her day; and after
awhile, it's just possible that he thinks that
she will carry in her arms little bundle
that will be Toms baby and mine for
that's what she will call It, He sees this
vision going away in the smoke of his pipe,
and he gets up, shakes himself together,
and goes
TO DRESS FOR THE OPERA
where he will talk to bright women, good
looking women, brilliant women. But they
are not women who would be willing to sac
ritice one French gown, one new bonnet, or
one single pleasure for an honest mans
love. You think 1 am exaggerating9 am
not.
You have only to read the descriptions of
fashionable weddings to find out who mar
ries the man who has just slender income
of money and a magnificent outcome of
love. These girls leave it until too late to
marry. They have their own tastes set
tleS, and they seldom yield to.a man. His

Edwin Booth May Visit Irving.

Edwin Booth is seriously considering an
invitation from Irving to visit that prince
of good fellows. Mr.. Booth is in very poor
health, no matter what his friends may say
to the contrary. He has long spells of mel
aucholy, and at times he broods over his
troubles so long that he units himself for
eating, sleeping or enjoying the society of
his friends. When in this city often see
him wandering up and down Broadway in
the evening, usually smoking long black
cigar, so strong that it would unnerve even
giant.
Should Mr.. Booth go to London for a
visit he will undoubtedly be greatly lion
lied Mr.. Irving has charming home and
entertains in princely style, and he would
make his fellow actors welcome in the Eng
lish metropolis as cordial as a true hearted
Englishman could do.

The Wife of Ex-senator T. C. P1att.

This tall, gray-haired woman of COM
handing mlen and intellectual face just
entering the Fifth avenue hotel through
the ladies' entrance on the Twenty-third
street side is the wife of ex-senator 7. G.
Plat. She has healthy looking complex
ion and that peculiarly fascinating gray
hair which seems to make the wearer APP
pear young Occasionally Mrs. Platt
wears her hair like Martha Washington did,
which sets OFF her features to great advant-
age. Always elegantly, but not gorgeously
attired, she attracts attention in any social
gathering Ofo late she has devoted
her talents to two subjects, anna
teur photography and national and
state politics. When 1 say politics I mean
politics in its broad sense. 1t is said that
she knows as much about the past political
history of this country as her widely-knoEn
husband, and in hot political campaigns
she has often given him advice that proved
to be wiser than the counSelS of some party
leaders. There are those who assert that
Mr.. Platt,s success in politics is due in
part to his wife's sagacity and wonderful
intuitive wisdom. As a photographer she
is most artistic, and any one of her speci-
mems would be taken for the work of
professional. Her Photographic studies
afford a fine opportunity to judge the bent
of her artistic range. They usually repre-
sent charming bits of landscape, a dreamy
nook and objects quaint and curious. If
she had used the brush instead of the
camera she would have risen to distinction.
Her domesticity. however, is paramount to
politics and photography.

The Author of "Betsy and Are Out"

l saw Will Carlton, the poet, the other
day. His appearance is somewhat peculiar
admixture of the poet, the athlete and the
business man, and if any one could pick
him out for either one or all of these he
would not be far out of the way. for Mr..
Carleton is all three at times. Whoever
has conceived the notion that a poet Is
either dropping, lackadaisical Bunthorne
sort of creature, or a chap who lounges
around in silk gowns, or even fellow
out at elbow and down at heel will
find a living contradiction in the author
of lover the Hills to the Poor House. -
Mr. Carleton is tall and broad-shouldered,
with well-knit frame and rugged consti-
tuition His face is strong and refined. He
wears his hair, which is turning gray,
rather long, but not noticeably SO, and the
style is rather becoming to him. He is a
hard worker and always has been, and has
accumulated a considerable portion of this
worlds goods. He works for money, with
fame as a secondary consideration. He
has been fortunate enough to win both. He
makes his home in Brooklyn, and his resi-
dence is handsome one. His "workshop'
is on the top floor of his dwelling He is
utterly devoid of ostentation and is easily
approached by struggling authors who
seek word of advice. He believes in get
ting as much for an article or poem as it
will bring, and in this connection it may be
said that during visit to Europe several
years ago, Mr.. Carleton wrote a series of
articles for the newspapers in this country.
for which he received $500 apiece. The
number Of newspaper writers in this
country who can command $500 for single
newspaper article could easily be counted
on the ten fingers, even if one or two
fingers were missing. Mr.. Carleton is also
a successful lecturer. He has a lovely home
and beautiful wife.

A Man Whom Success Has Not Spoiled.

Good fortune rests as lightly upon the
shoulders of Charles H. Royt as adversely
did in his younger days, when he was en-
gagged in newspaper work. The author of
so many funny plays like The Brass Mon
key" 'A Hole in the Ground "a Texas
Steer and the like now occupies position
in New York dramatic affairs that he may
well be proud of. He is just now produc-
ing his own play in his own house by his
own company. Only two other men in
New York can claim this distinction
DAILY and Harrigan.
Hoyt's fortune is now we'll up in the hum
dreds of thousands of dollars, or should be,
if he has taken care of his money. He be-
gan life by writing ''jokes'' for a Boston
newspa er at SIS d week. He could not
purchase many luXuries with this sum, but
he never complained. Instead he began to
write popular skits, and soon was coming
money. He still keeps up his work, some
times toiling as many as twenty hours at
stretch. But once he gets a new play
launched and his road companies properly
organized, he takes long rest, and then he
sets about writing another lay. Hoyt is in
good health, is happily married, is a versa
tile fellow, and is of unfailing good humor.
He can do little of everything, including
acting.
His plays2 They make money for him,

good figure. and has blush gray eyes that
often seem to go on long excursions of fancy
while one is talking to him. His hair is
sandy colored and his face is adorned with
small mustache. He hasn't literary
look at all. In dress and manners he would
be easily takan for what he really is-a
Southern gentleman, loving fondly the
memories of the South's past and welded
to the progress now in operation in his sec
ton. Sometimes he diScardS his SLOUGH hat
and appears with high silk tile, without
the frock coat which nearly all Southerners
are partial to- Mr.. Page is a successful
lawyer of Richmond. and never neglects a
law case for literature. He can do an
enormous amount of work.
l asked him once how he managed to at
tend to a lucrative practice and write so
many stories. He said he worked at law IN
the daytime and at night literature claimed
his attention. His capacity for work is so
great, he frequently writes until o'clock
in the morning. He doesn't wait for in
spiration, because his normal condition is
one of inspiration. and he can write story
any time he has the leisure. As to his ne
gro dialect, he told me that it was not man.
ufactured, but taken from life. Nearly all
the negro characters he has so delightfully."-
depicted were from living models.
Page is charming conversationalist, and
success has not turned his head. He is as
unaffected as child and has nature as
tender as woman's. 7. p. O'Connor, the
Irish patriot, and Mr.. Page are bosom
friends, and when the former comes to this
country he GA~ayS goes to Virginia, and for
weeks these modern emulators of Damon
and Pythias have a round of social pleas
ures together. Page hasn't spark of jeal-
ousy in his composition, and a struggling
author always receives his heartiest SYM
pathy, and if necessary his quiet financial
aid,

The Country Newspaper.

If you have anything to sell that
commands trade outside of your
own city, use the country newspa-
per.
In the country newspaper you
have a reliable and effective friend
that does it's mission at more family
firesides than do many of the met
ropolitan dailies.
In the country weeklies the mar
riage bells toll more joyfully than
in the great city papers, and when
the columns of such home paper
tell us that some humble person has
gone from the world we read with
tears, for he was our neighbor and
friend.
The country newspaper is not
only business guide, but it is a
pulpit of morals for the entire COM
munity and county in which it is
published. 1t is a kind of public
rostrum where the affairs of state
are considered it is supervisor OF
the streets and roads it is a social
friend, promoter of friendship and
good will.
