HITE HOUSE VISITORS

The President today issued a proc
lamation calling for $4,000 more vol
unteers This will make the total
army strength, regular and volun-
teers, 27S,5oo.
One hundred and twelve thousand
men have been mustered into the
service of the United States.
The Senate met an hour earlier
than usual this morning to resume
discussion of the war revenue bill.
Secretary Long said that he had
received no official report that the
Spanish fleet was at Santiago, and
that an American fleet guarded the
entrance, but he believed the press
reports to that effect.
1t is said that the effort will be
made to keep Cervera's fleet inside
Santiago harbor, and that an at
tempt will be made to carry the place
by storm and to attack the fleet.
General Miles today detached Col
onel Black from duty as Engineer
Commissioner of the District, and as
signed him to duty at Chickamauga.
Reports from Chickamauga Park
contain many complimentary allu-
sions to the District volunteers.
The battleship Oregon sailed from
Jupiter Inlet today.
A reign of terror is reported at
Key West, and the citizens want
martial law declared.
Sentiment in England is divided
on the question of an alliance with
the United States. Stewart Erskine
denounces the war on Spain as inn
moral.
1t is said the President is consid-
ering plan of capturing Porto Rico
before invading Cuba.
The new call for volunteers is
taken to indicate active operations
both by army and navy at once.
The President today issued the fol-
lowing proclamation:
By the President of the United
States.
A Proclamation.
Whereas an act OF Congress was
approved on the 25th day of April,
1893, entitled "An act declaring that
war exists between the United States
OF America and the kingdom OF
Spain," and
Whereas by an act of Congress.
entitled "An act to provide for tenn
porarily increasing the military es-
tablishment of the United States in
time of war and for other purposes,
approved April 22, 1893: The Pres
ident is authorized, in order to raise
a volunteer army, to issue his procla-
nation calling for volunteers to serve
in the army of the United States:
Now, therefore, l, William Nc
Kinley, President of the United

to the aggregate number of 5000,
in addition to the volunteers called

Open EnlistmentS.

Secretary Alger said this afternoon
that the additional volunteers called
for will not be recruited from the
National Guard, as were the first
$4,000, but that the enlistments will
be open. The regulations referred
to in the proclamation under which
the enlistments will be conducted
have not yet been prepared, and it is
thought that there is no occasion for
hurry in this matter until the full
draft called for in the first proclama-
ton has been secured.
1t is further stated that the deci-
sion to issue an additional call for
volunteers was not reached until the
cabinet meeting yesterday afternoon.
The call, it is supposed here, indi
Gates a determination to press the
campaign actively and vigorously
from now on.
Gen. Corbin's Statement.
A statement, prepared by Adju
tant General Corbin today, shows
that when the army of the United
States is fully organized under exist
ing authority, including today's call
for $1,000 volunteers, it will consist
of 278, 500 men, divided as follows:
Regular army. $4,000
Volunteers from states and
territories ......... 100000
Three cavalry regiments at
large 5000

NOT HAWAII BUT IRELAND.

A vry rational suggestion has been
made by. we are told Mr.. Calvin BriCe,
with regard to Hawaii. In answer to the
argument that we need islands to defend
us against Great Britain he points out
that it is difficult to see how Hawaii could
protect US against Great Britain, being
1900 miles away. without a navy to defend
the islands, and if we have a navy to de-
fend the islands. we can, with it, defend
ourselves against this power without the
island. 1t is plain that the Sandwich isl
ands would simply give us something
more to defend. He therefore suggests
that IL we need an island for the purposes
of defense against this grasping power
we cannot possibly do better than take
Ireland. ireland is almost the same dis
lance from M as Hawaii and is close to
England ud the loss of Ireland would

ireland, TOO instead of being nha bited

population with quite a genius for politics
of the lingo kind and strong affection
for this country. From Dublin the bust

do not feel quite sure. but we do know
that the possession Of Ireland would be
good for America and cause anguish to

REPRODUCTIONS AWKWARD.
Some Rules to Make Easy the Meeting of
Strangers

Some Rules to Make Easy the Meeting of
Strangers.
That basis of all polite intercourse. the
introduction, is one of the first rocks up
on which etiquette is wrecked. Men and
women who know intimately far more
are checked by this simple matter of max
ing two persons known to each other, and
often perform the ceremony in a manner
that leaves an irritated impression upon
the minds of the couple introduced.
The very first thing to be sure of be-
fore making an Introduction is that the
two parties are willing to become ac
quainted. 1t must be remembered that it
is correct to introduce the junior to the
senior or the person of lower rank to the
social superior. A convenient form would
be something of this sort: Mrs. Sydney,
allow me to make Mr.. B. known to you.
Or, II should like you to know Miss So
and-So" is a very pleasant way of putting
it. when both parties are Of the same sex.
1t is, of course. imperative that the at
tention of both parties be secured before
the introduction is made, as nothing is
more awkward than the inattention Of
one or other.
When making two strangers known, a
tactful hostess would casually mention
some subject in which they art likely to
find a topic of conversation, for il is very
difficult for some people to start a CONVEX
sation with complete strangers. Criticism
Of the other guests present, to which re-
source some harrassed people fly, Is
not altogether safe, putting aside its lack
of politeness.
There IS the vexed question Of what to
do with the hands when an introduction
is in progress one sees it dawning in the
eyes of one not sure of the correct eti<
quette of the moment.
A handshake between two ladies of like
position, newly introduced, is quite in
order. but it is not usual for a lady to
shake hands when d gentleman is intro
ducedNto her.
At dinner party hostess must intro
duce her guests to each other, but she
cannot be expected TO do this at a
crowded ''at home or evening gathering
it, therefore, becomes permissible for
the visitors 70 introduce their friends
who may be unacquainted with each 9TH
err 1t is also considered natural for
for strangers to address each other cas-
ually, IL they happen to be sitting near
each other for the fact that they are mu-
tual friends of the hostess is sufficient
social recommendation.
However high the social standing of the
gentlemen, lady takes precedence OF
him, and he is introduced to her.
| At a ball gentleman may be intro
duced by steward, or another gentleman
recently introduced. but the lady is not
| bound afterward to acknowledge the per
| son made known to her.
When making an Introduction, tbs
names should be uttered clearly and dis,
| tinctly, SO that there may be no doub;

BAB TALKS ON THE
SERVANT QUESTION.
AnnudlRevieW of the Lady'S M0id--Her Life Below
Stoirs ond Up Stairs and All Over the House.

hold which the girl entered she stole
more than money. She took magnlfl-
cent silver, wonderful jewels, fine pieces
OF -brac, and handed them over
to her sweetheart to pawn, while she
disappeared When the detectives
looked up her references, which her
mistress should have done. they dis
covered that this lady knowing her to
be thief, had yet allowed ker to go:
into other homes as an honest girl.
AS woman to a woman, as house
keeper to a hOusekeeper, have the
strength OF mind to give nothing but
an honest recommendation TO the SER
want who leaves you or whom you
discharge. And never fail to date
your reference, for girl who may be
honest to-day may be a thief next
year while she who may have been
sweet and pure and good while with
you may be deprayed in six months
time
Each Of us, as we enter the little
place that means home, whether it be
a tiny house or a small fiat in some
great city, is overlooking with hope
about the woman who While We en-
ploy her, will yet help make the house
a home. Each of us means TO be good
to her and each Of us wants to make
her happy. How does she meet this
desire on the part of the mistress?
The average servant regards the aver
age mistress as her natural enemy.
Kindness she considers nothing more
than her right. Sympathy she sJls-.
poets, and gratitude is something alln-
7 known to her Oh, / know there have
been faithful servants and there are
good servants, but once in awhile the.
mistress has right to speak, espec-
tally now, when the papers and jour
mails are overlooking with articles from
the side of the employee. You and l,
who engage one girl, arrange for her
a comfortable bedroom. There is a
chest in it which contains a sufficient
Number Of sheets, nillow-cas.s and
towels especially dedicated to this
room. You allow your maid time
enough to put her room in order, and
you beg of her when she gets up to
throw the bedclothes off the bed, open
the window and let the fresh air in.
Perhaps this is done once, perahps
three times, but after that it is con-
sldered waste of time by the mis-
lfeSS u the Kelcnen, and you soon
learn that the linen on that bed
would never be changed if you did not
take some Of your valuable time and
insist upon it,
You have often thought how miser-
able it must be to eat from an untidy
table, to use soiled dishes or to have
scraps represent your bill of fare. So
II one Of the kitchen cupboards there
are cups, saucers and plates and all
the necessary dishes in plain white
ware and with them some small table
cloths for the use of Jane and to add
to her comfort On her arrival you
show her these articles meant to make
life pleasanter for her and as you ex-
plain their use you notice that a look.
half of scorn half Of disgust, comes
over her face. That first night Jane
spreads the little table in the kitchen
