heart of society. And it is largely by reason of such
open doors and easy routes that the celebrity of
literature, art, science, the stage has long since
become as numerous IN New York as the canned
peach.
But in smaller cities it is only when the travelling

most brilliant women in society, that must posi-
lively refuse to offer any advice as to the best
means of capturing the unfortunate artist who is
to be used in this manner. But, captured

hesitate to offer suggestions to the proper serving
of the celebrity than the late Henry Bergh would

almost much interest and Importance in the eyes
of womenkind those kindred topics " What to

shall not of course offer any suggestions for the
fashionable New York hostess; for in the great
social market place in which she trades everything
has its precise value and she knows what to do with
her celebrity, just she knows what to do with the
caviar that gives zes to her dinner what to do with
her too demonstrative admirer and what to do with
her ashes and garbage.
But to the hostess in the smaller towns where the
celebrity is only an occasional rare bird, l would
say: Serve him up at a Sunday night dinner fol-
lowed by freefor all reception and either invite
everyone on your list or seek your ultimate reward
by limiting your invitations to the half-dozen social
leaders of the town. Either course will render you
unpopular, even though it may advance you a few
steps in your social progress Be careful above all
things, not to consult the feelings of the celebrity
whom you have your hook, or to ask him whom
he would care to meet 1t is better to per-
init him to know your intentions for fear he should
wriggle off and escape.

WHAT TO DO WITH THE CELEBRITY

tHE salon mcrobe, native to France, reached
New York by way of London toward the
close OF the last century, and exists here
in the form of sort of social eczema or rash known
to local practice entertaining celebrities or
forming delightful literary and artistic circle :"
1t would be difficult to compile complete list
of the salons that the metropolis has known within
the last quarter of century. In that time scores
of women, some clever, cheeky, and some
combining both qualities, have striven to attract
the notables of literature art, and the stage-"irl
terestng people, as they are called-and to use
them as the nucleus of a salon. Some of these at
tempts have been costly and ambitious, and others
ludicrous, while nearly all have been ruined by the
pushing, vulgar hon-hunting element that came
Crowd1ng ill., sometimes unlimited and sometimes
hidden by the weak-minded hostess, who feared
that her little group of celebrities would be wasted
unless she could exhibit them bound to her chariot
wheels, to a mob of outsiders.
In the present year of grace lion hunting is car
ried on in New York with far greater ferocity and
sportsmanlike skill than in those simple DAYS when
only the most advanced and daring hostesses in
Vlted opera singers of to their Sunday enter
tainments. And the celebrity of to-day, when
caught, is fed on champagne and terrapin whereas
in the beginning of the salon period of our history
thin sandwiches and thinner punch were his unhappy
lot. There was one salon, indeed, which lasted
only single Sunday afternoon, just long enough
for a local bard-the author of Give but a rose
leaf stepped in dew, and will feast for ave to de-
entire cold roast duck before the eyes of the
Mortified hostess, who had deemed it sufficient for
the material needs of fully a score.

ALLEGED FALSE PRETENsEs.
Man Under Arrest Says He Has Ship
load of Horses

Charges of false pretenses were preferred
against Nathaniel McIntire, colored, twen-
ty-four years of age. arrested yesterday
by Policeman William E. Stewart of the
Anacostia police station. 1t Is charged that
he collected small sums of money from sew
eral persons In Anacostia by inducing them
to believe that he is a Cuban and that he
has a shipload of horses and mules en-
route here from Cuba AS a matter of
further inducement, 1t is alleged. he prom
lsed that he would sell to certain parties
because they had befriended him, horses or
mules at ridiculously low prices. One man,
IL is charged was promised a pair of car
rfage horses for $50 and another was prom
ised a working team for similar amount.
Mclntire, the police say, has been living
on Sumner avenue. Hillsdale, for about
seven weeks, but he did not spend much
time there Several days ago Policeman
Stewart learned of his alleged method of
obtaining money from persons living In the
vicinity of his home and began making in
qufries. He learned Sunday night that McIn-
tire had returned home and he thought he
would wait until next morning to arrest
him. AT an early hour the policeman went
TO his house, but was disappointed to find
that the man had left the house and started
toward this city. He was oyertaken near
the bridge and arrested. McIntire insists
that he has horses and mules coming, but
his claim is disputed by the police
