SECRETART MANNING’S SUCCESSOR.
Washington’* official society is much
more deeply iuteresti-d in the identity of
Secretary of IDe Treasury Manuing’s suc
cessor than most peop e Imagine. So
clety’s interest results Id m the fact that
tne wile of the new official—Secretary
Bayard being unmarried—will rank next
to Airs. Cleveland on state occasions.
Ph< Uld the new Secretary be an unmar
Tied man. Airs. Kndlcott, wife of tbs Sec
retary of War, succeeds to this position.
There woulu then be, of wives ol
cabinet officers, only four, and of
these Mrs. Lamar is eiderly and
cl a peculiarly relirmgdispositioD. Mrs.
Endicott Is in poor health, and therefore
Hot always to be counted on at ceremo
nial occasions, although conscientiously
present whenever It is possible. Mrs.
Whitney and Airs. Vilas alone remain to
be luliy depended on for social leadership
In the executive circle. It becomes
peculiarly a matter of interest that tms
broken line should be reinforced by tne
acquisition of a lady of tact, breeding and
amiability, radiant in health and spirits.
Jilrs. Manning is a difficult woman to fol
low, for sus was a rare combination of
resolution and gentleness—a woman tall,
Kracelu! and fair to look upon, with a
stately walk that mane hm a picture
beautiful in memory on occasions wnsn
•he came down the stairway of state hnd
into tue Blue parlor leaning on
the President’s arm. It is said of
ber that during her two years of official
life sue has not. been known to make on ;
mistake. In view of tj mental woila
ment consequent or. tbe critical condition
of ber nusnaud's health inis is saying a
great dial. Mrs. Ala .mug’s uepailure
leaves a void wnich it will bo haid to till.

SENATOR BROWN'S VVIEAI.TH.
The impression prevails in Washington
that Senator .100 Brown’s willingness to
ho i bis famous coal mine property in
Georgia is not so union the result of a de
sire to he rid ot the cares incident to its
ownership as to the tact that toe wily
Ben ator baa worked the bonanza for
pretty near all there 1* in it. It is said by
men nee who to know what luey
ire talking about that the mine is not
worth anything like s2.ooo,hii;i, mid that
the prospective purouasera will insist on
Butung down the ngurus consul l rablv
before they invest, lit lact, the Senator’*
whole estme is rot estimated here to be
worth over $2,000,000 or SIi,SOO,UOU at the
outside. 1 here ts not much probability
that the distinguished Georgian will let
ariypartof bis holdings go lor nothing.
Once he cots possession he is pretty apt
to bold on tenaciously.
LUDICROUS MISTAKES.
Congress always sows a crop of In.
fliiuous mistakes during the rush which
has come to oe characteristic of the last
hours of a session. The engrossing and
enrolling clerks of the two h ouses, work
ing steadily as ibev had to do last week
for forty-eight hours, w thout cbtin;:i* to
take even a cat-nap,mid scarcely acbance
to take a cup of coffee, come to be so ut
terly worn out that they scarcely know
what they are writing. There is an om
nipresent danger that mistakes of
a serious and costly nature will
toe made, but this fact has not
yet sufficiently impressed itself on the
scions of legislation to remedy the evil.
In 1883a misplaced comma in the river
and harbor bill cost the government
hundreds ot thousands of dollars. The ;
crop of blunders is harvested by the De
partment ol State when it puts away the
originals ot ttie acts of Congress in iis
archives. One of the queerest bills this
year was an item in the naval appropria
tion hill under the heading “Marino
Corps,” making an appropriation lor
“furniture for horses.” Of course it
should have been “for houses” of the offi
cers stationed at the barracks here. But
every test applied to the words failed to
make it anything else but “iurniture for
horses,”
THE FAST SET.
There have been some very gay people
Here during the past winter—both men
and women. Home of the flirtations aud
escapades have been scandalous in the
extreme. Ol the high rollers among the
meu few have been able to keep pace
w ith the sons of three or lour prominent
Senators. Senator Fair’s son, of course,
eclipsed every one of bis age by his ra
■lou* million dollar escapade. Young
Fair aoon afterwards was sent by bit
iatbsr to a ally less full ot temptations.
Just what be ia doing now to keep up hie
! reputation nobody teie seems to
know. Another mUslng lace is
tua of tne dashinc son ot
a i rmnjifo' Senator from the South. His
m r r> Is stul dear to a tost of anxious
creditor* upon wnom be forgot to call be
fore bis departure. He was a very lively
youth while here, however, and some of
Lis pranks are still food for gossip among
the admiring young men of the town.
Alabone’s son was also bard to beat.
Another young fellow of the same stamp
plaved the part of a highway robber, and
coolly and successfully passed it off as a
oke.
RIBBON DECORATIONS.
1 be Custom Carried to an Alarming
ly Ridiculous Extent.
New York, Alarch 19.—The ridiculous
custom of decorating every available ob
ject in tbe house with bows of ribbon bas
extended even to candles—not the kitchen
candles of course, but those intended for
bedroom and parlor. The ribbon* are of
any color tnat may happen to piease the
eye ot the mistress of the house, and are
aitacted to tbecandle close to the candle
stick where, naturally enough, they pro
duce a most Imposing effect. It Is per
bsps unnecessary to state that this kind
of car.die is not meant to lie used. On
the other hand, it is permissible to eat
one’s dinner roll, wnich is likewise
adorned witn a ribbon tastened about It.
T nere is some consolation in this tact.
Doubtless, however, we shall soon be
treated to the enchanting-spectacle of a
sirloin of baef with a broad satin sa*b
round its middle, or perhaps a roast
chicken garnished with a brilliant cra
vat; in lact. devices ot tuis kind admit of
no limitations.
Speaking of ribbons, it is noticeable j
that the number of scarfs and draperies 1
in the drawing-room is rapidly (iimin.sh- j
ing. It oas become possible to sit in a j
cnair without undergoing the torture o! i
having the back of one’s neck scratched j
by tinsel embroidery, woiie tne voiumi- !
nous loids of silk and linen that once
swathed the sofa and dangled over tiie
edge of the piano are now hardly to be
seen in fashionable houses. A few fine
embroideries give a striking a: and artistic
appearance to a room, but their employ
ment should be regulated bv the ordinary
rules of common sense that unfortunately
are not displayed in every household. To
taxe a long scarf, tie a great knot in the
centre and pin it to the back of a couch
with tbe ends outspread like tbe wings of
a gigantic bat hat naught to do witn
eitner beauty or art.
But it is a'curious fact that to abandon
one absurd fashion means, generally
sneaking, ro adopt another equally non
sensical. Hence, weeast aside meaning
less draperies and come to—candle and
bread bows. Clara Lanza.
A DISTINGUISHED COMPANY.
How a New York Swell Entertained
Home Well-known Men.
New York. March 19.—1 heard a story
the other day about a prominent young
swell. He invited a friend to a midnight
meat, and when the friend hesitated tbe
swell said by way of inducement: “If
you will come I will introduce you to
some of tbe best known men in tbe
country. Among my guests will be men
whose names you see in tbe newspapers
almost every day.’’
I he friend pictured himself seated at a
table wi.'b probably a member of the Cabi
net. two er three Senators and Congress
men, distinguished journalists and a few
well-known actors, and readily acoeptert
tbe Invitation. Still, ne wondered how
such distinguished men could consent to
be the guests cf a young rnan who pos
sessed a limited intelleet, no particular
cuann of manner, simply because be had
a rich father. When he entered tbe room
in a prominent restaurant where the din
ner was to he served his surprise was all
tue greater. There he saw a lot of men
with scars on their faces and with flashy
attire seated about the table. On the
right of the host was Ucd Leary, looking
us dfgstifb and as a Supreme Court judge,
and seated opposite was Jere Dunn, with
a smile that seemed to be frozen upon bis
lace. Next to him was a Mr. Miller, who
is known to lame as a shrewd confidence
operator.
There were also several men who had
made reputations as pugilisis. There was
great disappointment over the absence of
John L. Sullivan, who was unable to be
present on account of bis broken urm.
Tb'- young host, who wore a dress suit
and a pair of eyeglasses, seemed to be
happier than he had ever been before in
his life, and even his friend was so
on armed with the novelty of his compan
ions that be invited them all to bo bis
guosts ou a similar occasion.
