PUBLIC OPINION.

TIE TABLES OF THE MILLIoNAIREs.
Pittsburgh Times.
Many a man compelled to deny him
self the good things of the table to which
he has been accustomed in ordinary
times, in imagination revels in the good
things of the table which the very rich
are supposed to enjoy. Here is an au-
thoritative account of what these good
things consist of, furnished to a New
York newspaper reporter by the cooks:
In one of the Vanderbilt families the
last dinner had before the reporter called
at the kitchen door, consisted of soup,
fish, roast beef, potatoes and celery, with
claret, if asked for. Cornelius Wander
hits favorite meal is a puree, roast
mutton and potatoes, cold chicken with
Jelly, and claret. John T. Astor's is of
oysters, vegetable soup, veal or lamb
potpie, salad, cold meat, pie and Ameri-
can wine, but he is thought to be given
to luxury. Ex-Secretary Whitney, ,iwho
has a large fortune, thinks nothing finer
than bean soup and roast pork, unless it
may be pie. The reporter was told that
the clerks of those men live more ex-
travagantly at the table, and he ex-
claimed; "Poor devils if they don't!"
1t would be safe to say that nine out
of every ten of the men who have sworn
war on society were moved to it chiefly
by the idea that the rich are able to in
dulge in the finest of fine eating. Able
they are, to be sure, so far as money
goes, but physically they would all be
wrecks if they INDUCED to one-half the
extent imagined. The very things they
are enyied for are those they care least
about. An Anarchist, who of all men
is least likely to be hungry, goes out to
blow them up for indulging in dainties
they seldom touch. He and his fellow
conspirators often plot destruction over
viands which cost more than those or
dinarily on the tables of the wealthiest
men in America.
