INCOMES.

Washington, Oct. S0.-Clever women do
not hesitate to adopt every reasonable
expedient by which their incomes may be
increased. 1t does not matter how much
wealth they already possess, and IL does
not embarrass them. if by their wits, they
procure an extra check or it's equivalent
each month. Mercenary, ambitious women,
whose husbands are in public life, are linn
itless. That they can trade upon the
names and offices of their husbands is
true, and that they do so is an open secret
in Washington.
Leaders of official society, who have re-
sided for any length of time at the ma
tional capital learn the value of their pat
ronage and good will, and there is com
mission league in good working condition
to which wives of cabinet officers and con-
gressmen belong. The league has no
headquarters, yet it's business is carried
on throughout all points of the city, and
its patrons are all sorts and conditions of
trades people
The wife of an ex-cabinet officer was
notably good housekeeper. Having lived in
Washington through various administra-
tons, she was well known to the caterer,
the butcher, the grocer, and the florist,
and respected because of the length of her
order list. 1t was the custom, at the be-
ginning of every social season, when new
families of wealth became residents of
Washington, for the caterer, the butcher,
the grocer and the florist to request this
wife of a cabinet officer to use her in
fuence in their behalf. In virtue it was an
order on the commission league, for the
cabinet lady, in making the acquaintance
Of the new conner, recommended her IA
vorite tradesmen. If she succeeded in OBJ
tanning the coveted patronage for the ca
trer her dinners and re-
ceptons cost next to nothing.
II the plea I'm behalf of the butch
er met with success, the fillets and game
served at her dinners were the choicest,
and the cost trihing. In the same way the
grocer found it convenient to remember
tais woman with occasional cases of cham
lasne, and the florist to send in palms and
movers upon her reception days. She did
not receive a percentage IN money for her
services, but she certainly got much money
veIue from her venture as a commission
merchant
Another woman, conspicuous in official
society, profitted by her position In still

Origin of the Menu.
From the Boston Transcript.

rIOIn the oOSLOH
1t was the Duke Henry of Brunswick
who was first observed In the intervals of
a banquet to scan carefully a long strip of
paper by the side of his plate, and when
the curious guests ventured to inquire in
to the nature of his studies he explained
that 1t was a sort of programme of the
dishes which he had commanded from
the cook, to the intent that If some deli
cacy which especially appealed to him
were marked for late stage in the repast
he might carefully reserve his appetftesfor
1t. The simplicity and beauty of the idea
appealed instantly to the good dukes con-
wives, and the menu card from that mo-
ment became an institution. In its old
fashioned form the bill was usually writ
ten large, on cards of such imposing d.
mansions that room for only one could be
found at each end of the board. In the
medieval dinner this aid to selection must
have been an absolute necessity, for the
medieval dinner was q mine of surprises
1t was divided into courses, as are our
own dainty meals, but whereas nowadays
the diner has a general idea that fish will
follow soup and that entree is succeeded
by relieve, and can conceive generally the
sort of demand that each course Will make
upon his appetite and digestion, there was
no possible arguing as to what was going
to happen at an early English dinner. and
close study falls 10 reveal the existence of
any principle Of arrangement

CLEANED AT GUYTON,
Various Items of Local and General
Interest.

Interest.
Guyton, Ga, Oct. 30.-S. S. Sollee and
family moved to Guyton this week from
Savannah. They are occupying the Ell
singer residence on Springfield avenue.
Miss T1llie Elsinger has been in Guyton
several days, having some furniture
moved and sent to Savannah.
Mrs. r. @. Ferguson and daughter,
Miss Blanche. have moved to Columbus,
Ga. They have been living here for the
past eight years.
Rev. G. G. N. Mcdonnell spent Friday
and Friday night in Guyton. He held the
fourth quarterly conference, for Guyton
station, last night at the residence of Col.
r. j. Davant. Reports were made by the
pastor, Rev. o. F. Cook, on the various
interests connected with the work. all of
which were encouraging and showed that
the pastor has been diligent in looking af-
ter every department of work committed
to his supervision. The treasurer, C. D.
Rogers, reported the finance somewhat
short with the pastors salary, but is con
fident that the entire amount will be
raised. AS soon as the business of
the conference was completed Mrs. Davant
took charge of members of the conference
and invited them to the dining room. She
had prepared an elegant supper, and the
occasion was an enjoyable one. Those
present were: Rev. G. G. N. MacDonelI,
Rev. o. F. Cook and wife, A E. Bird and
wife, p. M Adams, G. d. Rogers, A. J.

physically speaking, a sensitive plant. and
personally speaking, a lovely violet, all

is equal to the demands of her position
as long as she takes the best of care of
her health. Her malady is one that rem
ders her very susceptible to cold, and her
sitting room and private parlor in the ex-
ecutive mansion are kept up to the tenn
perature of 50 degrees. When Mrs Nc
Klnley drives in her barouche, the win
dow next her Is closed, even though the
morning or afternoon be mild. When she
uses her victoria, it is with the hood rails

because of this susceptibility to cold, and
wherever she goes some sort of dainty lit

TRAGEDY IN MASSACHUSETTS.
A Farmer Found Dead in the Road
Near Fall River.

FALL RIVER (Mass.), July IL
Holder Alonzo Tripp, farmer of West
port, was found dead in the New Bed
ford road at a late hour last night, and
Jerry Manchester, another Westport
farmer, is under arrest in this city
charged with murder.
Tripp had as his mistress a woman
named Mary Reagan. About a week
ago Manchester, who was infatuated
with the woman, married her The mar
riage caused much jealousy and bad
feeling between the two men. About
80 D. m. the last car on the New Bed
ford and the Fall River Electric line,
when one mile out of the city, ran
across Trips body in the road. Mrs.
Manchester was holding the injured
mans head in her lap, while her hus-
band was standing over them. Tripp
expired before a physician could be
summoned. Manchester says that Trip
must have been killed by being thrown
from his wagon. The police say that
the men quarreled about the woman,
and that Tripp was kicked to death.
