The Wrong Woman.

Two well dressed women, whose kinship
could be traced at a glance, entered shop
the other day and took seats at the silk
counter. The assistant had scarcely COM
menced his weather report when one of the
women said:
1T Is my duty to warn you that my sis
ter is confirmed kleptomaniac, and that
you must watch her closely"
Aftera alittlewhile the "klep" moved along
to another seat, and the assistant felt it
his duty to give her his most vigilant atten-
tion. Twenty minutes time was consumed
and no purchase made and as the woman
left the shop the assistant flattered himself
tina. the little woman with the Grecian nose
had tried it on the wrong merchant

1t is reproach to the American people
that some memorial to Mary Washington
has not been erected One was begun as
long ago as 1888, but was never finished,
although congress took transtory interest
in the matter, and the senate twice passed
bill appropriating 900 for the purpose,
which was never ratified by the house. The
present association was organized in 1880
and proposes to erect n granite obelisk 50
feet high in place of the monument begun
so long ago and to inclose and adorn the
burial place and provide for an endowment
fund for the preservation of the memorial.
The association has had life membership
medals struck, which may be obtained on
the payment of S25 and which are to descend
in the female line from the subscribers to
their daughters and granddaughters, whose
privilege it will be to preserve and perpetu-
ate the work done by the association.
A curious fact has been made public late
ly about the pictures that have been pub
lished as those of Mary Washington. 1t is
asserted on the authority of distinguished
antiquary that they are not portraits of her
at all, but of Dolly Madison. The gentle
man who said this did not think there was
aportrait of Mary Washington in existence,
but one has been discovered that seems to

Townsend of New York city and was
painted by Mertmuller, whose portrait of
Washington is well known and must have
been done about the same time.
The painting is about 20 inches square
and represents woman of about 60 years
costumed in gown of the latter part of
the last century. The full face is remarka-
BILE for its character and presents a striking
evidence of the genuineness of the portrait
by its resemblance to the well known face
of Washington. There is the same mouth
and brow and the same sereneness of the
eyes, and no one who looks upon the pic
ture will find it difficult to tell whence
came the firmness and good judgment Of

by pompan circumstance enough to make
1t memorable. The royal family and the
royal household were out in full force, and
there were princes, dukes, lords, equerries,
sticks in waiting and grooms enough with
their female c0unterparts to found pop
ulous colony on some desert island if Eng
land should suddenly get tired of taking
care of them.
1t will be remembered that the laying of
the cornerstone of the Imperial institute
was one of the principal events of the cele-
bration of the queens jubilee in 1887 The
Prince of Wales is credited with conceiving
the idea. The cost of construction was de
frayed by subscription from all the British
colonies and from individuals throughout
the empire II was designed not only to
illustrate the industrial and commercial re-
sources of the colonies and India and odif-
fuse a knowledge Of their condition and
progress throughout the United Kingdom,
but also to afford all classes opportunities
to become acquainted with the develop
ment and extension of the natural, indus
trial and commercial resources of the three
kingdoms themselves and to advance the
industrial and commercial prosperity of the
country by the active promotion of technic-
al and higher commercial education. 1t
was to be at once museum an exhibition
and the proper locality for the discussion
of colonial and Indian subjects.
The institute covers an area of nine acres.
The square central tower is $50 feet high.
The actual length of the main building is a
little more than 600 feet, but it was con-
nected with arcades left standing after the
international exhibition of 1874, thus MAX
ing total frontage on one long line of 900
feet. The cost of the building was nearly
$1,000,000. The architecture is renaissance,
and Thomas e. Collcutt was the architect.
Stately chambers have been assigned to
the different colonies, the American and
Australian Icing in the west wing and the
African and Indian in the east wing. There
will be kept ON exhibition in the galleries
samples of all the products of every part of
the empire, and commercial intelligence
department already has its headquarters in
the building. There are fellows of the in
stitute, elected by the executive council
An annual subscription secures for them
the use of the library and reading rooms,
and there are special rooms set apart for
their comfort much the same as at a club.

rope several times. AS a newspaper writer
he welded a trenchant pen, and while al
ways strong party man he never forgot
to be fair. Mr. Mcdonald is tall and fine
looking. His manners are eourtly, and his
conversation, though not didactic, is made
interesting by the immense fund of infor-
nation which he has stored up in his mind.
The Persian mission is not particularly
attractive post for a diplomat, and when a
man applies for it it is quite certain that
epossesses taste for travel and adven-
ture. Teheran is reached only after n te.
dious journey over rough roads by means
of divers forms of conveyance, and even aft,
er one gets there he finds very little that is
agreeable to an American except the nov
city, which is about the only thing a stran-
ger gets free in any part of Persia But
there is a great deal of novelty, and as a
result nearly every minister sent by the
United States to the country of the shah
has made one or more interesting contribu-
tions to magazine literature based upon
his observations.
The shah of Persia is great present Civ
er, and he is also addicted to the present
receiving habit. 1t can therefore not be
money which temptS man to become the
representative of his country in Persia, for
the expensive gifts which he is expected to
give the shah in return for the very ordi-
nary ones received cut rather big slice
out of the small annual salary of ST, 900 at
tached to the position. Outside of the so.
cial duties the minister has little else to do
but listen to complaints of missionaries
and write accounts of anything interesting
to his government or the magazines
Still many persons have long held to the
opinion that with representative who will
zealously watch for every opportunity to
establish intercourse with Persia the Unit
ed States might be greatly benefited by
means of concessions, etc. On the other
hand, it must be borne in mind that the
shah's word is not valued above par even
in his own country, due to the fact per-
haps that while he is always willing to
grant concessions when in a particularly
ecstatic mood he has an embarrassing habit
of revoking whatever he has promised
while the grantee is away on capital rails

Mr.. Mcdonald is said to be greatly i'm

of Persia and it is probable that within
q few months he will shed new light upon
both in his reports to the government.

soUAw CREEK CAMP.

Opals are found imbedded in the rock
like raisins in cake, only not as plentiful
as most people prefer the fruit They are
scattered about at haphazard and not ac-
cording to any special plan. They are OBJ
tanned by blasting or breaking the rock
with hammer, and great care must be
exercised lest they be shattered. Each
gem is inclosed in n stone matrix that must
be cut away before its beauty can be seen.
The ent Sc district in Idaho where opals
are minet is designated Opaline in gener
al way, though there are several distinct
camps. One of the most notable is Squaw
Creek camp, just over the ridge from Opal
inc. 1t is named from creek that gushes
forth as a spring from the heart of a noun
tain near by. Several valuable specimens
have been found there, and the claims are
fast being located by prospectors.

Saved by His wit.

Although 1t is familiar saying that an
Irishman is always s9oiling for fight, still
there is one kind of fighting to which even
the brave sons of Erin are sometimes averse
that is dueling A story well illustrat-
ing this fact has recently come to us.
A certain Irishman, having been chal-
lenged to fight duel, accepted the con-
ditions after much persuasion on the part
of his friends, who felt confident of his sue
cess. His antagonist. a lame man, walked
on crutches.
When the place for the shooting had been
reached, the lame mans seconds asked that
he be allowed to lean against milestone
which happened to be there. The privilege
was allowed, and the lame man took his
stand.
The Irishman and his seconds drew off to
the distance agreed upon-10o feet. Here
Pats courage suddenly failed him, and he
shouted to the lame man.
1--WE small favor to ask of ye, sorp'
'What is it?" asked the cripple.
Pat answered, II tould ye thot ye might
lean agin the mile post, and now would
like the privilege of leanin agin the mkt
one"
The laughter which followed spoiled
everybody's desire for fight, and the whole
party went home without shot having
been flred.-Youth's Companion.

HOW TO SEE THE FAIR
BAxTER'S ITINERARY FOR A DAY AT

Good Advice For Those Whose Time Is
Limited and Who Wish to Make the
Most of It-Get knowledge of General
Features First.
Many people just now are seeking infor-
nation about the best way to see as much
as possible of the big fair in short time
The great majority have but few days to
spend there, and how to spend them profit
ably is a matter about which they would
like to be advised How difficult it is to
advise them no one realizes half so well as
person who has been on the ground from
the beginning. The more one knows about
1t the less possible does it seem that any
thing like an adequate comprehension of
It's wonders can be obtained in few short
visits. Yet people who have time only for
few visits are still further handicapped
by not knowing definitely where to go and
what to look for, and an itinerary for them
from one who knows whereof he speaks
ought to be of some benefit.

sance at It's extreme western gate, in Cot
tage Grove avenue. He will see before him
