Washington and Its Social Life
Especial Correspondence

Washington, April 26.-As society
center the capital ranks high In that
respect it probably holds first place
on the list of American cities. Far
above its eastern rivals its aristoc-
racy holds its head, and never yet has
it, by any slump in the social world,
been compelled to come down from
the summit where it has stood for
many years and where it is likely to
remain. Many reasons are assigned
for its standing in this respect today,
the prime one, probably, being that
it is the seat of government. That
reason alone puts it upon it's dignity
more than any other But its lofty
position is principally due to the num-
Der of officials of the government,
foreign dignitaries, and the states
representatives and their friends and
those who spend the winter months
here for enjoyment, all of whom are
ready to do their part and participate
in making each season "howling
success" or in better English, an as
tentatious social Utopia.
Although New York is about ten
times as large as Washington. its so
ciety circle is but little larger. Bos-
tons social faction also suffers in
numbers, although comparatively it
ranks better than New York Phila-
delphia is behind the others mainly
because of its business and industrial
enterprises. Newport, however, gives
Washington lively race All of the
eastern fads. and a great many which
are not eastern, may be found in the
Rhode Island city. 1t is said that
even Paris. the proud mistress Of the
mode, has TO ''go some" when New
port is a contestant for social honors.
In the latter place society is more of
a gay, fiippant kind. often accom-
panied by amusements somewhat on
the same order. These conditions.
however, are not true of Washington.
for here an aristocratic dignity pro-
hibts fashionable excuses.
While the United States govern
ment permits no title or nobility as a
distinguished mark of citizenship. the
society circle of its capital is yet ex-
elusive enough to closely resemble
the accommodation spirit which pre-
walls at the courts in Europe. No pro-
letarian ever rides on the aeroplane
of washington's society.
The social season lasts throughout
the winter, beginning at about the
time congress assemblies and closing
four months later During that time
events of Importance to the society
editor crowd upon each other with
rapidity. Receptions. dinners. balls.
teas and entertainments form but a

men, together with the diplomatic
corps, dine and wine freely.
Conspicuous are the dress of the
women and decorations in the home.
None but the experienced can de-

must suffice herein to say that its col

effect charming. The men, of course,
appear in evening dress with silk
hats, that is at any function after 6
O'Clock. An invariable rule has been
established as to their dress. Decor
ations are superb. Flowers, palms
and ferns, intermingled in designs of
many colors, in which the American
flag and myriads of electric lights
often add gloriously to the scene, all
present at night a magnificent picture.
Together with this. the lights strung
along the outside of the buildings
wherein festivities take place, the
uniformed footmen on the walks lead
ling to the entrance, the scores of car
lriages blockading the streets for sew
leral squares, and the large, beautiful,

harnesses and bright gold or silver
buckles,-all combine to produce a
beautiful and alluring effect. A night
scene at the white house. on such an

few. who are frequent participants in

FARMERS IN THE LEGISLATURE
HOT ON THEIR TRAIL.
ALL RIGHT TO USE FERRETS
Cotton Tails classed a, a Great Pest

Also Not in Favor of Superfluou5
Inquests- Socialist Measure Killed
On Hand.

Farmers and fruit growers of Wis
consin are to have the liberty of pro-
tecting themselves against the de-
predations of rabbits, the assembly
Saturday refusing to allow an anti
ferret bill to be advanced without an
amendment clearly permitting the
owner of land to exterminate the rab-
bit pests. Mr.. Turner'S bill was on
the calendar for engrossment and
Mr.. Ties offered an amendment to the
effect that the prohibition of hunting
with ferrets should not apply to the
owner or occupant of land or to any
one having permission from owner
or occupant Mr.. Turner opposed the
amendment, declaring that he did not
think it would be right to allow the
owner of land to exterminate rabbits
Friends of the amendment retorted
that they did not think it would be
right to allow the pests to operate on
valuable trees and shrubs so that the
hunters from the cities might have
better sport Mr.. Hager said he had
suffered annually hundreds of dollars
of damages by reason of rabbits, and
he said that the horticulturists of
the state were damaged annually thou
sands of dollars by the barking of
trees and shrubs. Mr.. Ties related
how an entire new orchard which he
triel to start had been destroyed by
state-protected rabbits. DR.. Miller de-
nounced>the taking of rabbits with
fererts as cruel and inhuman, as the
ferret is sent into the rabbits burrow
and the rabbit is then caught in a net
and dispatched with a club. He said
other means were available to kill
rabbits, such as trapping, shooting or
otherwise. T. M Thomas wanted to
know why it was any more cruel and
inhuman to catch rabbit in a net
and kill it with a well directed stroke
of a club than to catch the rabbit in
a trap and allow it to suffer a slow
death or wound it with gun and let
1t die in a hole or brushpile. Mr.
Hager said he would be in favor of
a bill to protect the horticultural in
terests of the state from the doctors.

He declared as an experienced gard
ener that the rabbits we're a costly
nuisance and that it would be far
better for this country ii these pestifer-
GUS animals were destroyed, and h..
did not care whether it was done with
ferrets, guns or traps so hong as the
protection afforded TO the property
holder was effective. The bill was
ordered to engrossment after the
amendment had been adopted by an
overwhelming vote
Watching the Coroners.
The charge that many coroners are
grafters was made with determination
in the assembly when the bill to re-
peal the inquest law of 1905 was up
for engrossment. Mr.. Jackson
wanted to know why the repeating
measure was favored, as he thought
the law of 1905, requiring the ap-
prevail of the district attorney before
the coroner could hold an inquest,
was a good law and the change pro-
posed was in his opinion letting
down of the bars against any Justice
of the peace holding an inquest and
causing the county large and unneces-
sary expense. Mr.. Mckenzie vigor-
ously opposed the bill, declaring that
the coroner of his home county,
Waukesha, was enc of the corOners
xrh h0 q
they wanted to have power to call and
hold inquests Unfortunately SO as
to increase their fees. He declared
that the bill, which proposed a return
to the old system, was an invitation to
grafters to mulct the county The
judiciary committee had reported the
bill favorably and Chairman Ingram
desired to have it re-referred for
futher consideration, but the as
sembly refused to do so. and also
killed slight amendment that was
offered. Then it seemed certain that
the bill would be killed summarily
in the absence of its author. Mr.. Ban
croft, but finally it was sent back
to the judiciary committee.
No Limit to Damages.
The Bancroft bill eliminating the
restriction that not more than $4,000
may be recovered for damages in case
of death by accident was advanced.
This bill would make railroads liable
to damages of fair amount as deter
mined by trial regardless of whether
the injury caused death or not. AS
the law now is it infrequently is not
to the disadvantage of the railroad
companies to kill instead of simply
to MAIN.
Another Socialist Resolution Killed.
The Thompson resolution for leg
islative investigation of the liquor
traffic, involving the definition of the
saloon as the poor mans club was
killed, after the author had explained
that he thought that insufficient in
formation was available at present to
enable intelligent dealing with this
great problem.
