orally Improved Condition.
The report of the New York County Visiting
Committee for the various public charitable
institutions has Just: been issued for the year
ending on Sent. 80. 1893. This committee is
n part of tho State Charities Aid Association
and has for its President DIR. George G..
Wheelock. 1t is empowered by law 70 visit
all public institutions once a month. and its
purpose is to determine their condition so.that
the public may learn what this may be through
unpreiudiced and bipartisan persons. Each
institution has evidently been carefully
watched and many valuable statistics with
reference to them are appended to the report.
On'the whole it is extremely favorable to the
Department of Charities. many improvements
in the past year being noted. A summary Of
the most pressing needs OF the department is
given.
Among the recommendations is one for a
separate hospital for consumptives, unless
there should be established a State colony for
such patients. Attention Is called TO the fact

things urged are an electric lighting plant on
Blackwells Island for all city institutions: new

worihouse helpers In all the hospitals; the
establishment Of a city laundry on Blackwell's
Island and "A more thorough investigation OF
applicants for admission to the almshouse.
Especially favorable comment is made on
the management of the Infants Hospital on
RandalIs Island. The report says that it has
been transformed from one OF the most hope
less institutions in the department to ono OF
the best. The death tate has been materially
reduced. due to the large increase in the num-

Mrs. George S. StudWell Gives IA Novel En-
te%rtainment at Her Home.
Mrs. George S. Studwell OF 108 West Fifty
eighth street gave an entertainment at her home
last night, her guests being about 200 girls who
work in factories and in the large department
stores. Mrs. Studwell is q member OF tho Chi
Kappa Club. whose objecti Is to improve the con-
dition OF working girls by entertaining them
and bringing them into contact with refined
surroundings. Her husband is a Wall
street broker. TIL entertainment did not
differ in any respect from those held for Mrs.
Studwells society friends. The parlors were
decorated with roses and ferns. and the girls
took off their wraps in dressing rooms. where
they received every attention from maids In
waiting. Mrs. Studwell received as she would
have at a regular social function. The girls
were apparently not a bit fiustered by their sur
roundings. and enjoyed the new sensation i'm
mensely.
A musical and literary entertainment con-
who took part in this was Tom Karl. Lucille
Saunders, Matte Ferguson and Mrs. Asa
Alling, tho latter's coon songs especially de-
lighting her audience. Recitations. songs and
amateurs. Supper was served at tho end OF
the entertainment. The girls were all unat-
tended by escorts, the entertainment being
only for the girls themselves. .
The Chi Kappa Club, of which Mrs. Studwell
is a member. has given a number OF such en-
tertainments. during the last six, years. but
that undertaken by Mrs. Studwell was on a
larger scale than the previous ones; The girls
who were the guests were selected by different
members of the club. Mrs. Studwell said last
night that her idea was to train the girls and
accustom them to refined associations, and
that the results had been most gratifying.

DIRECT ADVANTAGES.

The ultimate reason why gas ranges are COM
ing into use by the thousand in all classes Of
society is that they do better cooking in less
time and with less labor and at "A less money
cost than is possible in any other way. They
do better cook ing because they make a chemi-
cal experiment of cooking: that is. they furnish
just the right amount OF heat, perfectly regu-
lated, which is required to produce the chemical
changes in food which we call cooking The
gas-heated oven is the best for roasting or bak-
ing, The gas broil"r is absolutely peerless for
broiling: A gas flame brought directly beneath
the kettle or pot is the swiftest and best way Of
boiling or Stewing or SauteinE. The consent
ing experience OF thousands of cooks puts all
this beyond all doubt. This is no question Of
theory but OF plain fact. and the fact is cstab-
lishcd beyond caviI. The saving Of time aud
labor which the gas. range makes possible is
obvious; Full heat instantly available speaks
for itself on that point. and SO does the truth
that itis easier to turn a stopcock than it Is to
carry Il scuttlc. But many people are incredu-
lous about the cost being actually less with the
gas range, Well. perhaps they are thinking Of
the time when gas was S2.25 q thousand. We
are now headed straight for dollar gas aud
have almost reached that figure. At any rate.
repeated experiments have shown that a gas
range can be run for 40 to 30 por cent. less fuel
cost. 1t Is this great economy Of the gas range
which Joins with its unrlvaIled efficiency to
make 1t the favoritc it is.-idr.

Cortez family was one OF the wealthiest and
most influential in Manila. Its members
came under suspicion during the Filipino re-
bellion and their real property was conflscated
by the Spaniards. The two brothers had plen-
ty OF cash on hand and are still well to do.
They came to Washington from Hong Kong

had been taken from, them. This consists
