Subtle Distinctions of Rank Among
Kitchen sQueens.

Subtle Distinctions of Rank Among
Kitchen sQueens.
In a certain New England city the
going rate Of domestic wages is 81 a
week. One matron, having had many
heart-rending experiences with the I'M
eXpectedness Of her help, was moved
thereby voluntarily to raise the wage
Of peculiarly competent girl to $3.50,
with the hope Of firmly cementing
Biddy to the family. She reckoned ill
in leaving out of her calculation one
Of the strongest traits of human ma
ture-of human nature, at least, as it
disports itself in this land, where all
are free and equal, writes a cOntribu-
tor to Harper's Weekly. But a few
short weeks had passed when this
model domestic, so recognized by the
abnormal attitude Of her stipend, in
formed her mistress that the extra
half dollar week made it impossible
for her to associate with the girls who
were getting no more than 81, and
seeing that there was no society for
her in that neighborhood she would
be forced to move to more congenial
locality. And move she did, leaving in
the breast Of the matron an emotion
not classified in any of the sociological
studies Of mistress and maid that have
come to our attention, but which bring
forth practical fruit in a determina-
ton never again to NEEDLE with those
forces which tend to fix the social
status as between servant girl and
servant girl. Our readers will easily
see the abstruse character of the prob
lem as it is exemplified in this one in
cident-an abstruseness far exceeding
in important gravity that which mars
the harmonies Of life in other circles
where the social standing depends
upon reconcile factors Of relative
wealth and birth and breeding, but
where the immense probabilities of
making the beds and doing the family
washing are not involved. We cannot
pretend to grasp the full significance
of this aristocracy Of the kitchen,
though the untoward practical effect
is clear enough.

The Three sons.

"A poor man called hi, three sons
round,
And then to them he said,
Il can't support you all, I've found,
So you must earn your bread.
Out in the world bid you go,
Your fortunes for to seek;
I'm sorry, but it must be So
You'll leave within a week.
In five years all return to me,
And tell me what you've done.
hope | shall have cause to be
Proud Of each mothers son."
Now John was strong, and James was
smart.
And Tom was fair to see,
Each started out with beating heart,
A-wondering what to be.
The five years passed, and strong John
came
Back home to see his pa;
He said, I've not disgraced our
name
| run trolley carl"
Smart James the next one to return;
A drummer on the road
Was ne; he told what he could earn;
His samples, too he showed.
And then Tom drove up to the door,
Remember, he was "fair')-
He said, MY wife is eighty-four-
But she's a millionaire!"

 CUTS Where Wake is in Progress.
 The fire department was again kept busy yesterday. In addition to several morning fires, there were three bell alarms during the afternoon and even- ing. Box 61 was sounded at 4:56 o'clock and this was preceded by a still alarm lat No. S's house, the members of which
 on their arrival found that the fire was more than they could deal with alone. The fire was in the large stables kept
 by F. s. Hine at 62 Edgewood avenue. How the fire started no one knows,
 but it was evidently in the hay loft when discovered and the whole inter- for of the building was eaten out by the flames before the fire could be ex- tinguished. There were three horses
 and a number of carriages in the barn when the fire started, but they were
 all safely taken out by the firemen.
 It is estimated that the damage win
 amount to about $2,000, and is partially insured. 2<.F 1't MT. Hine keeps a grocery store just 1 around the corner from the stable at 90 Howe street. ,F ssr. While the fire was burning another alarm was sounded from box 161. Some | tar. which was being put, on the root of the new house at i35 Carlisle street set fire to the roof, but was quickly ex- tinguished. The damage was about $25 Last evening at 9:25 o'clock the de- partment was called to the house
 owned by Eli Mix at 115 Hill, street
 The fire was in the cellar of the half of | tine house occupied by Isaac SwirslSy l a dealer in bottles. The upstairs part
 of the house is occupied by d number oi Italian lodgers. The fire, although fill. | ing the entire building with smoke, was
 confined to the cellar which it damaged | to the extent of about twenty-five dol l lars. .f s'
 A sensational feature of this fire was I the fact that in the other side of the house, which is occupied iby Michael [ Donoto, a wake was in progress. Mrs I Donoto died yesterday morning and
 last night number of her friends were
 gathered about her bier when the fire was discovered. The body was taker
 into the next house and after the fire was over it was taken back to the
 burned building and the wake was re.
 sumed.
 All the fires attracted large crowds ol
 people.
