ferhaps tne most notable feature of the in
vasion OF Washington is found in the number of
FAMOUS and wealthy widows who have taken I'm
their abode there most of them purchasing nv
ows who have adopted Washington are Mrs
George NJ Pullman, widow of the founder or the
sleeping car company Mrs. Mark Hanna Mrs
John Hay, Mrs. Albert Clifford Barney Mrs r
Hit, Mrs. "Phil' Sheridan, Mrs John A Logan

mining king; Mrs. Mary Scott Townsend who in
herited many millions made in PENNSYLVANIA coal
and oil interests; Mrs Slater, who requires 1s
servants to minister to her lone comfort in a
monster mansion and number of others

the price of real estate in Washington to advance
by leaps and bounds in those favored sections of
to a considerable extent monopozed by the fash.
