sherman a Large Land owner

Ex-Secretary Sherman is a wonderful
man. Since his return from the West IN
dies, where he had an attack of pneumonia.
he has steadily improved and is able to
ride about Washington looking at the land
ne owns In various sections of the city
This is his favorite pastime when well He
owns some of the most valuable real es-
tate in the city. 1t was through the our
chase of land here that he made much of
his present fortune.
He owns one plot of ground that is a for
tune in itself. 1t Is situated in one OF the
most fashionable sections of the city on
Fourteenth street, and covers half block
1t has always been his belief that soma
day new executive mansion would be
built upon it. 1t is an ideal location for a
presidents home, but it looks as If it would
be years before congress or the American
people would consent to an abandonment
of the white house. This structure be-
comes more valuable after each admins
tration. There is something beautiful in
seeing president of the richest nation IN
the world living In a simple home that is
inferior to those of half the millionares OF
the country. 1t represents the simplicity of
the foundation of the democracy, ana
points moral to other officials of the gov
eminent.
The exterior is a beautiful piece of colon
ial architecture, but not more magnificent
than a dozen other residences of the same
style throughout the country, and does not
begin to compare with the Vanderbilt mar
BILE palace at Newport, which is three or
four time sas valuable from commercial
standpoint
But there are memories about the white
house which hang like garlands around it
and make 1t, to the American visitor in
Washington, one of the most beautiful and
hallowed spots in the world. Democrats,
wings and republicans, all have lived there.

The President and Bishop Ireland

The friends OF the administration say
that the statement now going the rounds
that the president offered Archbishop Ire
land place on the disarmament commission
does the president a great injustice.
This interesting piece of news comes
from Catholic circles, the story being that
the Roman prelate had accepted, but upon
the advice of the pope declined it. 1t is
hardly likely that the president would have
made such an egregious mistake as offer
ing Roman priest such place, and it is
more incredible still to think that Arch
bishop Ireland, above all others, would
have declined it.
He is more active in politics than any
other representative of that denomination
or sect, spending much of his time in
Washington where he has become some
thing of a political intriguer. The presi-
dent himself cannot deny the report but
MS friends are doing So and they say
moreover, that Archbishop Ireland did all
IN his power to get the appointment and
railing wanted it to appear that he had
the honor rendered him.

replete with the most brilliant and memora-
BILE entertainments ever given at the ma
tions capital 1t was at one time the home
of Daniel Webster, In fact for many years
the great statesman made it his residence
and Office alike. 1t is well known that
Webster had little means of his own, and
that the Wing party of his state con-
tributed to his meager salary in order that
he might maintain his position at the capf-
tai as one should with his power and in
f1uence 1t was the most expensive resi-
denee in the city at that time, and 1t Is still
the highest priced property to be rented in
Washington today.
1t covers almost half a block, being en-
tered by a court way and possessing ex-
tensive grounds which have been made Ia
fous by lawn parties of milionaires who
have occupied the house from time to time.
1t is still the property of the Coreorans;
for many years the home Of the great phil
anthropist himself who left the Louise
Home and the Corcoran Art Gallery to
perpetuate his name In this city.
The Home of the Brices
OF recent years it has been the home OF
the Brices. At the time it was leased by
the Ohio senator and millionaire, its front
door opened on the street, but the big
brown steps were removed. This caused
the statement to go the rounds here that
the Brices desired no callers who did not
come in carriages. 1t might have been a
SANDER. but it certainly did cause the ordi-
nary congressional callers to halt and
think twice before running the gauntlet OF
a half dozen footmen and men in livery.
Senator Depew will entertain in the most
lavish style and will sustain the reputa-
ton of this famous old residence
He will have as his feminine aids, his
two nieces, Miss Paulding, known as the
Di Vernon, of New York, and his married
niece the Countess de Brissonnow, living in
Paris.

The ANNEXATION
OF NICARAGUA
President Mckinley Does Not DiSCouF-
age the Idea.
THE SCHEME Is AN OLD ONE
Has Often Been BrOaChed, But Heretofore
Always DiSGeuntenanCed.
SENATOR DEPEW RENTS A HOME
Will Occupy the Old Corcoran Mansion
and the Old House Will Once
Again Be the Scene of Bril-
liant Functions.

Washington, April 12.@Special.) -While
the administration is not giving any special
encouragement to the Nicaraguans who
want annexation to this country, still 1t is
not discouraging them. The suggestion
has been made from time to time for half
a century but heretofore there was no
precedent for such annexation, and those
of the Nicaraguans who favored this policy
were never encouraged.
But now, with colonies lying in the mid
die of the Pacific and others close to the
shores of Asia and some more in the West
Indies, the Nicaraguans who have long
dreamed of annexation see some chances of
success in that direction The annexation
of Nicaragua would settle the canal ques-
ton, and would prove an easy way out Of
the difficulty for the administration.
President Zalara took advance grounds in
favor of annexation, but with public
opinion averse to annexing territory not
contiguous, his efforts met with little ell
couragement.
Foreigners Want Annexation
1t is said the whole foreign population of
Nicaragua want annexation, that the gov
eminent, as now run, there is no security
at all to property. The political disturb
ances there have kept out capital and the
very rich natural resources are practically
undeyeloped. No sooner does man or cor
poration begin to establish a paying bust
ness than either the government officials
pounce down on him and demand a rake
off from his profits or else the revolutions
lists levy tribute on him for their support
The common people said to be docle
industrious and energetic; that they join
the revolutionary leaders only when paid to
do so. The educated class is corrupt, and
the individual is ambitious and unscrupu-
lous. Whether the present movement
comes to anything 1t will take some time
to tell, for it will develop slowly. The
present movement may end as did the eff
fort of the little republic of Salvador to
annex itself to this country. The govern
ment of the latter republic once sent COM
missioners to the United States for annexa-
ton, but before they arrived the govern
ment they represented was overthrown and
the movement was abandoned.
