MRS. VANDERBILT's DIsLIKEs.
She Intensely hates Speaking Ia a
Tradesman.

Anecdotes of the Vanderbilts are still
in order. Mrs. .Alva is always a good
subject, especially at present, when her
domestic affairs are a matter Of c~onjec-
ture. A story going the rounds of her
methods at the marble palace at Newport
is amusing. 1t is a well-known fact that
for years Mrs. Alva- Vanderbilt has not
addressed a mental directly, but has en-
pioyed certain persons to take from her
the royal commands. To talk to a
tradesman or to order anything out of a
shop is too nue. for her nerves, and this
is why, probably. she has never taken
the trouble to visit the Sloane carpet
place., where Mr.. Sloane delights to take
orders and to see that his customers are
well suited, even if he has married a
Vanderbilt.
On one occasion, two Summers ago,
she had a list written and given to the
lodge keeper at Newport, of the people
who were to be admitted and those who
were not. When a carriage drove up the
guardian would peer out of the lodge, and
If the person was correct and on the list,
the countersign was given, the gates
s. well known in Newport, put in mo.
ton. One day one of the jeunesse doree
thought he would call on her, and he
walked instead Of driving to the gate.
his fair hostess strolling along the path
inside. He evidently was not on the list,
but being ava of the existence of
this document. he simply strolled through
Vanderbilt turned around and saw him:
She looked right above his head n
called Immediately for the lodge keeper.
The trembling servitor appeared Turn
man that he is discharged. He had no
right to allow that man with a slight
motion of the head toward the un~fortun-
ate social culpriD to enter" And she
on himself, and has been repeating 1t
recently with great Zest.

STANDARD BRIDAL BOUQUET.

The bridal bouquet in the month Of
-oses is still that of the winter-wh.te
orchids. Fashionable florists admit this
and give as a reason that the flower is
so rare. comparat.vely4speaking,- that
it Isl still costly and exclusive and al
the bridal time something out Of the
common IS always sought. "A second
reason for the orchids ~supplanting of
the traditional orange blossom IS that
it is odorless, and the sweet and rather
sickening fragrance of the typieslnHower
has more than nice been ovefp6wering
to a bride. The aroma Of tradition still

GRAND STREET SIDEWALKS.
Its Dangerous Condition Accusing
the Anger of Citizens.

The miserable condition of some of the
sidewalks is %arousing great indignation
in the breasts of some property owners
and passengers throughout the thorough
fares of Jersey City. Positively some
parts of certain streets are dangerous
at night and in rainy weather.
For instance on Grand street from Paci-
fic avenue on the west side to Paramount
avenue, the sidewalk is tilted at an angle
of thirty degrees and should the I'M
wary citizen not exercise great caution
he will slip. down under a huge billboard
and into the lot six feet below This
state of things has existed for several
years and the attention of the Street
Commissioners is earnestly directed to
at the place mentioned.

ARGUING At ALBUQUERQUE
Receivers Answer the Charges
Made In the Gable
Letter.
Declare That a Separate Regime
Would Disrupt the Entire
System.

ALBUQUERQUE, n. NJ, Aug. Ito
days proceedings in the suit praying for a
separate receiver for the Atlantic and
Pacific Railway was begun by reading aft
davits by General Traffic Manager BisseH
General Manager Robinson and Receiver
Walker. These affidavits denied the
charges as to unjust rates and methods
made in letter of T. r. Gable
and an affidavit of Mr.. jennings
Mr.. Robinson explained that the Gable
letter was written to him in response to
his request, and all other managers of the
system would make any suggestions
deemed necessary.
The opening argument for the plaintiff,
made by Mr.. Jennings, reviewed at length
the history of the mutual relations of the
Santa Fe, San Francisco and Atlantic and
Pacific capitalists, showed that Santa Fe
and San Francisco owned the Atlantic
guaranteeing the Atlantic and Pacific
bonds and by direct advances and dona-
tons as owners.
a history of the bonds under which a
new receiver is demanded was recited, and
q claim was made that such bonds entitled
the naming of a receiver. Mr.. Jennings
complained that the Santa Fe reorga MIA
ton committee had made no provision for
taking care of the plaintiffs bonds Mr.
Jennings was followed by General-Solicitor
Peck of the Santa Fe system in a long ar
gument in defense of the present receivers.
He said:
"a court of equity is the highest court.
The present plaintiffs tried just what they
are now trying when they applied for a
separate receiver for the ST. Louis and San
Francisco. Judge Caldwell answered at
the time they had no right to separate
receiver, since the effect of such q change
would be to disrupt the system without
benefit to any part of it,"
Mr. Peck was followed by Hon. N. B.
Field and Judge Storey, in the same
argument when court adjourned.
