ATTRACTS MEN OF WEALTH.
Homes Of Millionaires Increasing In
the Capital City.

The multi-millionaires' colony OF
Washington is growing at a rapid rate
at present, and the influence OF wealth
is felt more and more with each ses-
sion of congress. Bonanza kings OF
all the world seem to have a curious
weakness for the beautiful American
capital, writes ]. c. Welliver, in the
New York Herald.
Washington, with something less
than 10000 population, the capital Of
the richest nation on earth, is being
rebuilt at a marvellous rate in marble
and magnificence. Augustus Caesar
left as his proudest boast that he
found Rome in brick and left it in
marble.
Thus the change which has come
over Washington In recent years Is
one of the most interesting aspects
of later day American developments.
Americans are probably more familiar
with the curious frontier town, neither
northern nor southern, which was
founded by the first president in
wilderness, captured and burned by
the British in 1912, three or four times
on the verge of capture by confeder-
ates during the war between the
states, and which for nearly century
was in grave doubts whether 1t had
a proper excuse for municipal exis-
tence. than they are with the beauti-
full modern city which is being de-
veloped there.
1t is only within a decade and
half that wealth and society have
recognized the possibilities of Wash.
ington. The national capital nova
days lays strong claim to the distinc-
ton OF being the intellectual and the
social as well as the political center
of the nation. Thither go more and
more Of the authors, the litterateurs,
the scientists. the retired kings Of
trade and finance, the men who have
distinguished themselves.

oINEp OFF COSTLY MUTTON.
Humorous Story of Old Times, Told
by Washington Correspondent.

Out in Georgetown, says Washing.
ton correspondent, there are many old
homes, whose gray walls have with
stood the ravages of the ages. and
nave weathered the gales that have
swept the country in its shifting pan.
Drama OF events. On the site of
Georgetown college once rolled the
broad acres owned by Protestant
Thuldkill, who gave his grounds to the
Catholic church. The Thuldkill family
was one Of culture and refinement
and the several institutions of learn.
ing that owe their origin to the older
generations stand today as enduring
monuments.
or Protestant ThuldlIill, there Is told
an amusing story. 1t is related that
at the time he resided on Georgetown
Heights he was n noted breeder OF
live stock. When merino sheep first
attracted attention in this country he
lad obtained a small flock, and had
been negotiating for some time for a
ram. At length 1t reached Washing
ton. He mounted his horse and rode
anxiously to see and possess it.
1t was splendid animal, with a
price correspondingly high. He
bought it, engaged cart and negro
driver and hastily addressed a note to
Mrs. Thuldkill, saying that several
gentlemen would dine with them and
to have especially leg of mutton.
cooked in superior style. adding, also:
"The colored boy who delivers this
fol
to it,
The ram was tied up and the pre-
liminaries of the feast arranged. In
reference to the mutton Mrs. Thuld-
kill consulted her steward and they
concluded from the tenor Of the note
that the animal sent by the cart was
to supply the leg of mutton for the
festive board. So, accordingly, this
costly and fine ram was slaughtered
and his plump quarters dressed, gar
nished and served.
After some preliminary libations at
the sideboard the guests were seated
and a generous slice of mutton was
placed on each plate. They unani-
mously decided that 1t was very su-
perior and the host heartily indorsed
the sentiment and turned to his de-
lighted spouse and inquired from
which flock 1t had been taken. She.
of course, responded: 1T was the
large ram you sent for the occasion
this morning"
This was too much. The old gentle
mans queue stood on end. His face
was fairly purple. He rose from his
chair. nearly upsetting the table. He
brought his fist down with a thump.
and, with an emphasis. sent his guests
away convulsed with laughter, despite
the fact that they had not been per-
mitted to finish the meal.

Specters Hard to Get Rid OF.

Washington is a city of many haunt
ed houses. Scattered over the town
are numerous dwellings. seemingly at
tractive enough, which remain year
after year vacant and unrentable. to
the disgust Of their owners and the
real estate agents. Once in awhile
one OF them Is hired by strangers. or
by some person who takes pride in
lack of superstition and finds the low
price asked temptation. For q
brief period 1t is inhabited. then aban-
doned with almost ludicrous precipi-
tation, and shut up once more. Spooks
at the national capital appear to be
exceptionally Industrious and persist
ent in the production Of what experts
in such matters term phenomena"
and usually there is only one satisfy
ing cure for the trouble. namely. to
tear the specter-cursed building down.
In one instance where this was done,
however, the supernatural manifesto
tions were located in the cellar, so that
It was actually necessary to dig up the

Tho Ideal Listener.

An attentive listener is a Joy, but an
inattentive one is trial to the soul.
Listen with your eyes, your whole
face, your heart and your mind and
you will achieve a triumph. Look di-
rectly at the person talking to you
and never allow your gaze TO be de-
fected to other things which may be
happening about you, for this at once
shows lack Of genuine interest in what
is being said to you, and naturally
gives offense.

Doo BROUGHT His Friend.

An English lady, who had been from
home some time, was recently greeted
on her return by the old sheep dog
with great delight. So pleased was
the animal that he at once went OF
to farm seven miles away to sum-
mon another dog-an old chum-to
come and see his old mistress. This
dog was blind, and. after the introduc-
ton, was taken back safely by its ca
nine friend.

.,Y 49, -.

In the barbarous days of old, when
every man had to watch carefully over
his own safety, when.two persons met
they offered each to the other the
right hand, the hand that wields the
club, sword, knife or other weapon Of
war. Each did this to show that the
hand was empty, and that, therefore.
no trouble needed to be feared. The
handshake was the treaty of peace
in word, the way they had Of show
ing each other that they meant to be
friendly.

fulness and self-reliance. It is COM

to the best schools and acquit them
selves well at the universities, that
they are afflicted with a kind Of help

Druses Do Not Pray.

The Druses, a people of SYRIA num-
bering about $4,000, regard prayer as
an impertinent interference with the
Creator. Their religious creed is most
ly kept secret, no converts being al

door of mercy was kept open for 2j
years and was then finally and for

no dust or dirt and the atmosphere is
smokeless?
Ay, indeed. So far as these things
go, Washington deserves it's enviable
reputation. But how about what is
underneath? 1t is not enough that
city shall be clean on the outside The
trouble is that, where such matters
are concerned, people rarely bother
themselves to look beneath the sur
face. Yet 1t appears from recent dis
coveries that very disgusting and even
alarming conditions exist in the eating
houses. the bakeries, the ice cream
and candy shops, the grocery stores,
and the laundries of the national cap
ital.
The truth is, doubtless. that the
same sort Of conditions, equally dread
full and disgusting. exist in similar
establishments in every city in
the country. Nowhere are such
places properly inspected and 1t
naturally follows that in many in
stances they are unclean. Washing
ton Is first to take the matter up, and
is pushing the crusade against mis-
chiefs Of the kind with an enthusiasm
that cannot fail to produce results
results so obviously beneficial that in
all likelihood they will inspire the au-
thorities OF other municipalities to un-
dertake similar measures of reform.
The crusade, which has been going
on for only few weeks. has already
brought to light good many facts
nf u,h TO
people even TO dream One OF these
facts Is that the average restaurant
of good class, while clean and in
viting outwardly and from the view
point of the customer. is on the inside.
especially in respect to its culinary
plant, outrageously filthy and unsani-
tary.
Take for example one eating-house
on Ninth street, In Washington. 1t
bears an excellent reputation. and is
freQuented by many of the best peo-
pie In the city One Of its attractions
is its obvious cleanliness. But, as dis
covered by the health authorities,
when they examined the place. this
cleanliness is all on the outside. They
found two kitchens in the rear, both of
which were in a condition for which
filthy would be mildly descriptive
term.
Apparently the cooking utensils
were never cleaned at all-not from
one years end to the other. Occasion
ally they were scraped. when the accu-
mutation of grease and other dirt on
them was so great as to interfere with
their usefulness. Pans employed for
frying chickens-the fried chicken is
a favorite dish in Washington-were
half an inch thick with ancient lard
and other extraneous substances.
In each of these two delightful
kitchens, the floors and walls of which
were covered with greasy dirt. was a
closet of the most primitive pattern!
Seems horrible. does 1t not? But ex.
ceptional? BY no means. On the con-
trary. Judging from the investigations
of the health Office. such closets. sim
ilarly situated, are to be found quite
commonly in the kitchens of restau'
rants-New York American
