g--,A disappointing Census Report.

Chicagoans formed the Two Million

that according TO the best OF his knowl-
adge and belief Chicago had popula-
tion of >, 900. 900 souls. Several banqaets
were given to prove the truth OF the
claim. one or two newspapers took up
the two million cry, aud before the win

cagoan believed In it. But short time
ago came one Graham, superintendent
of the school census bureau, and
bliohted our dreams by stating In cold

metropolis while away the ardors OF

1t seems that at Newport the name
of Pullman Is not in favor. Tnls Is
stated TO be the result of the social tri-
umphs OF the Pullman girls in Vienna
not long ago, they having secured an
entry into the most exclusive circles OF
that gay capital after the efforts OF the
Yznagas, the Stevenenses, the Wet
mores and others had failed. This sue
cess was attributed by the enyious 10
the princely prodigality with which
George M. Pullman launched the mem
Uers of his family on the ocean OF So
ciety abroad. They spent money like
water and won the day.
For long time the fashionabies OF
New York have wished to revenge the
prestige OF the Pullman young ladies,
but, TO their chagrIn, they had no OPP
portunity. They were even obliged TO
receive the PullmaDs. as George NJ. only

In his company who have social in
fuences and can thus further the am-
billions OF his daughters. But when the
strike came and the details connected
with I, showed apparent distress
among the inhabitants OF the town OF
Pullman a scheme OF cruel revenge was
concOcted. A young woman OF New
York whose father is known from one
end Of the republic to the other started
a suhscripii IN for The relief Of the des-
tute in Pullman. All the fashion
ables who were in the clique subscribed
literally, ana quite sum was thus Sc
cured. One member of the Union club
is said TO have given sum that ran Into
three figures.
Meanwhile the Misses Pullmsn could
not be reached by any ordinary means
OF communication, and as it was the
intention OF the conspirators that they
should be Informed OF the attack upon
them the plan was suggested OF send
ing a request TO Georgs NJ. Pullman
himself TO subscribe, the request
to be accompanied by the names OF
those who had already given money TO

swer was received, either because the
magnate did not receive the letter or
because he thought it best not to no.
tice il. But the list OF names included
those of persons at whose house the
Pullmans have received social cour-

More hostllities were planned than
even this, however. The Pullman girls
are to be socially ostracised this winter,
and those New York young ladies who
have been enabled to cut no figure at all
In social affairs because their fortunes

TO enjoy hoSpitalities that are wrung
out OF the wages Of Pullman rent-pay'
ers. At Newport this season the name
Of Pullman is below par, and in New
Yord this winter their social ambitions
will be nipped in the bud.
Thus has 1t transpired that the Pull

A Tilted Dairymaid.

The Duchess Of Hamilton has had a
large stable built for her cows, and
goes there daily, according to English
papers, TO milk her favorites. She also
makes the butter, it is said, which is
used on her table when she has guests.
The stable is built OF marble, and cost
large sum OF money. The Duchess
had gloves made especially to use when
milking the cows, in order that she may
not soil her fingers.
