MANSIONS OF THE RICH.
Three Magnificent Homes in the
National Capital.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-Three
magnificent houses are nearing
completion in this city, two of them
built by newspaper owners, and one
by mining king.
The largest private residence in
this part of the country. and prob
ably the most costly of these three
houses is that of Bcliah Wilkins,
proprietor of the Washington Post,
1t fronts on Massachusetts ave. and
extends back several hundred feet.
1t has more rooms than Il good
sized city hotel, and is finished with
the ornate splendor OF a palace
One of the most remarked incidents
of the interior is a staircase which
cost 100000.
a house which is much smaller,
but hardly less expensive. is that of
Robert w. Patterson, editor of the
Chicago Tribune. One great item
OF cost in the Patterson mouse is
the material of which the exterior
is made. namely selected and fin
ished marble. No structure in the
city has used marble so freely. The

been completed, but it is under
stood that they are to be on most
elaborate scale. The land on which
the house is located, too. Is a very
costly item, being one Of the few
points facing Dupon circle.
The third notable house is that of
Tommy" Walsh of Colorado. Ev-
erybody calls him Tommy" in
spite OF his suddenly acquired mil
lions. seems to be a tribute to
his easy, genial way. The Walsh
house is near the wilkins one on
Massachusetts ave, and is both
large and expensive. 1t is on west
ern lines of architecture, big,
square and comfortable. 1t will
cost about million when complet
ed. In Colorado the Walshs did
not go in for society. but they have
been diligent in learning the art of
living and of spending a good in
come since they came here, and, in
time, promise to acquire as secure
a social status as the Letters.

new MANAGER.
]. Andrews to Take Charge
of Base Ball Team.

The Spokane baseball team is to
have a new manager next season
in the person of j. Andrews, who
last season played in the position
of third baseman.
Aside from his duties as manager
OF the club Mr.. Andrews, it is
stated, will also hold down the third
base. 1t is the desire of the base
ball men who govern the home
team to secure fast set of men
for next year and, with Gus Klopf
on second base. Elsey on first and
Andrews on third, there is no doubt
that the infield will be a strong
one.
The new manager made good
record last year and has a splendid
record in the east. He began as a
ballplayer in 1894 and played with
various eastern teams until last
year, when he signed with Tacoma.

LONDON, Nov. 14.-The York
house" at Twickenham. one of the
most interesting residences in Eng
land. will soon be torn down to
make way for a modern villa.
1t has been the home Of one Eng
lish queen, the birthplace of two
English queens and more recently
the English home of the Bourbon
house, of which the Duke of Or
leans, pretender to the throne of
France, the present queen of Portu-
gal and the duchess Of Aosta, who
may yet be queen of Italy. are mem
bers. All of the last three illustri
GUS folk were born and brought up
at York house.
The old mansion, which stands by
the Thames, close to the old church
where Alexander Pope lies buried,
is the property of the duke of Or
leans, and 1t Is by his orders that
1t is about to be sold The duke
says the reason he wishes to dis
pose of his English home Is that it
has become surrounded on all sides
by cheap cottages. There Is a gen.
eral belief, however, that his royal
highness Is parting with his fam
ily's home in exile because he be-
lieves that his society is not likely
to be cultivated in this country to
any great extent in the future.
The duke originally got himself
disliked in Great Britain through
his antiBritish utterances, and then
made his name stencil in British
nostrils by writing letter of con
graduation to Wilette, the French
cartoonist, who published indecent
drawings of Queen Victoria. The
British royal family promptly re.
fused to have anything to do with
him, he was expelled from the
fashionable clubs of which he had
been member and society gave
him frigidly cold shoulder.
Probably, II II had not been for
the emperor Of Austria, the breach
between King Edward and the duke
of Orleans would still be unhealed
Francis Joseph, however, begged
the king to pardon the duke, and
this the king consented to do. His
majesty positively declined, how
ever, to receive him, remarking that
he had no desire or intention of re.
newing acquaintance with his royal
highness.
York house" was built by the
literary earl Of Clarendon, who
wrote his essays in the gardens
which adjoin the house. Lord Clar-
endon presented 1t to James H.,
then duke of York. Here James
lived for years and here Mary and
Anne, queens of England, were
born. The room in which the latter
first saw the light is still known
as Queen Annes chamber"

REBlJRIED.
Body of Gen. Greene Placed
Beneath Monument.

SAVANNAH, Ga. Nov. 1.-THE
reinterment of the remains of Gen
eral Nathaniel Greene, the revolu-
tionary hero, and his son, George
Washington Greene, took place in
Savannah today IN the presence of
"a distinguished gathering. The
ceremonies were conducted under
the auspices of the Georgia Daugh-
ters OF the American Revolution.
The unwilling of the bronze tablet,
which is to mark the old vault in
Colonial cemetery, was the chief
feature of the exercises.
For years the exact spot in which
he was buried was the cause of
much dispute and investigation.
The Rhode Island society OF the
Cincinnati pursued the search last
year. and on March 3, 1901, Colonel
Gardiner and his associates discov-
cred a coffin plate upon which
Greene's name could be plainly dis
cornca. Another coffin of different
metal was also discovered and it
was supposed to be that of General

BAKERS TROUBLE.

A member of the Master Bakers
association said today that the mat.
ter of the trouble now on hand with
the bakers union and the master
bakers was started from the fact
that the master bakers wanted to
retain present prices on bread and
thus protect the union.
The statement that the Quaker
Bread company is backed up by a
few of the retail grocers is being
discussed at length in union circles,
and it is reported that the grocers
who are identified with the scheme
thought by opening a bakery in
connection with their establish
ments they could get reduced
prices on bread.

STATUE OF BAUDELA!RE.

The poet thus reaches a fame
after his death which he never had

fight with poverty. Even after the
publication of .Fleurs de NAL" on
which his fame principally rests,
the poet was in the hardest straits.
Baudelaire's word will never be
popular, for much of it dealt with
morbid and unpleasant subjects,
but its peculiar and strong style
will always be admired by students
of literature. He was greatly in

The first child of the Comte de
Paris and his wife, formerly Marie
Dorothee, princess imperial OF Aus
tria, was the present queen of Por-

duke of Orleans was born in 1869,
and Princess Helene, now duchess
of Aosta, in 1871. AS youngsters"
the children of the great French
house were almost of an age with
the present king and queen of Eng

them day after day. and it was in
these days that the affection which
existed between the late duke of
Clarence and Helene de France"
began. AS years went by they fell
in love with each other and only
the difference in their religions
prevented their marriage. 1t was
reported that when the duke of
Clarence died, though he was form

KH4KI.-

The board which was appointed by the Secre-
tary of War some time ago to consider necessary
changes in the army uniforms will probably
make its report this week, and it has been
limited that it will be in favor of the khaki uni
form for the rank and file of the service. Khaki
has had a fair trial in the tropical countries,
and has been found superior to the wooen
cloths which were once thought Indispensable
for the manufacture of military uniforms. \
recommendation on the part Of the board to
make the use of khaki more general would be
indorsed by all the men who served in Cuba,
Porto Rico or the Philippines not only because
the khaki uniform is more comfortable, but be-
cause its wearer is less conspicuous than his
comrade who wears the old regulation blue.
But while from the practical point Of view
the mud colored material the campaign hat
TO match and knckerbockers are preferable to
the gold trimmed blue uniform with its heavy
and highly decorated helmet. the substitution of
the one for the other will be disappointment to
the people who still look upon the army a spec
tacular body. Modern arms and methods have
driven the soldier of former days out of exist
ence The day of solid formation of columns
advancing shoulder to shoulder" and the pict-
uresque charge has gone by. and battle scenes
of the future will bear little resemblance to
those which illustrate the wars of the past.
The individual soldier has become i'm
portant factor than he ever before, and he
must be dressed and equipped with view TO
effective work; and the change in uniform is an
outgrowth of that condition.
The introduction of khaki will be a serious
blow TO the man who sings Of the boys in blue
and the other boys in gray" 1t will, among
other things emphasize the fact that the days
of the blue and the gray are also over, and that
