AMERICANS IN LONDON.
6omo Distinguished People Who Cole-
Prated the Fourth of July Abroad.
A London letter to the Philadelphia Press
fays: There has never been a more remark
assemblage of American lions of all
ti/.i'.s and both sexes than were brought, to
gether by Mr. Henry Gilliq, of the Amari
,,n Exchange, to celebrate Independence
Pay ii. a party at Grcsvenor gallery. For
3)>rc the masterpieces of art that hang upon
walls of hall end ante-room were for
gotten. while the people who represented
every State and city in the Union
thronged about, the more distinguished
of ilieir countrymen. The great spee-
A u i a r featuro of the evening, as they say
it the circus, was the appearance on the
door, arm in arm, of Mrs. John Bigelow
ind Buffalo Bill. A more extraordinary
"ouple could hardly be imagined. The
weather was worthy of the day in its in
‘ol iso warmth, and the long black locks
falling over the shoulders of Mr. Cody so
glistened with that appropriate article of
toilet, bear’s grease, that the scalp would
have slipped through his fingers of the most
iesigning of savages, while Mrs. Bigelow’s
.] a sio brow and diamonds struggled to
utshine each other.
Col. Cody is tall and slender, the lady
tliort, and, as Pickwick rudely said to Mr.
Tapper, “fat” Again Mr. Cody wore his
hair in graceful ringlets, Mrs. Bigelow hers
In a jaunty bang, and while the famous
scout was “killing” in high neck and long
sleeves, the famous society woman was
■stunning” in a neck so low that my ink
turns red at the mention of it. As to sleeves
there was no suggestion. Buffalo Bill
ivalked erect, severely serene. Mrs. Bige
low wore a perpetual smile. The latter, by
the way, came to England on the steamer
chartered for Buffalo Bill and his troupe,
and acted after her arrival as a society
■whip” for him. Now it has come to this,
that some English people present inquired
who that “stout lady” was to whom Col.
Cody was so kind.
MR. BLAINE AND MRS. POTTER.
There are many clever and distinguished
Americans in London now, and not a few of
them were present, but the Hon. Col. Cody
outshone them a'l as a star, until he was
suddenly extinguished by the arrival of Mr.
Blaine. Then “the subsequent proceedings
interested him no more,” and he left.
IV hen the famous statesman appeared in
the supper room with Mrs. Janies Brown
Potter on his arm there was a sen
sation. I never thought Mrs. Potter beau
tiful tiefore, but on this occasion she was
radiant. Her face sparkled with animation,
and a gown of crimson silk and coronet of
Hashing jewels became her admirably. At
once a background and a foil the figure of
Mr. Blaine rose beside the fair Southerner.
Stalwart and erect, his keen dark eyes
sweeping over the assemblage, and with a
voice clear and resonant, ho responded to
the toast of “The Bay Wo Celebrate.” The
cable has given you that perfect little re
sponse, but neither word of pen or wire
rould describe its effect nor the apprecia
tion of the exquisite tact which made it
felicitous to every American present.
HENRY IRVING AND ELLEN TERRY.
Among the most interested of Mr. Blaine's
listeners was Henry Irving, who looked
pale, thin and scholarly and wore an “lie
never-smiled-again” kind of an expression.
With him was Ellen Terry, as fascinating
off as on the stage. You know how tall
and graceful she is. Well, now she has
grown plump, too. Her arms aro round
and pink, and her neck has foresworn hol
lows. I hope Heaven will preserve her
from too much flesh. At present she is just
right.
Sarah Bernhardt, you will remember, is
fond of wearing her hair in *w!iat is called
the “bushy bramble” fashion. Miss Terry
has also taken to it with success. Her
yellow hair stands out around her face as if
somebody had been raising it. Nevertheless,
it, is becoming and picturesque, though I
wouldnt advise any ordinary woman to at
tempt it. Miss Terry wore a black velvet
gown, scooped out at the neck, with a
ragged-looking white ruff inside. The gown
was quite ltxwe, hung straight down iu
front, and had Watteau plaits at the back.
What a woman she is! Sho made a few
remarks to me about some people present,
and while she talked it was with every
muscle of her face, even her ears seemed
expressive aud her eyelashes equal to the
nine parts of speech." I never saw such a
play off eatures in anyone else. The funniest
part of it all is that it makes everything
she says seem wise, witty and wonderful.
Afterward one is astonished to find that
nothing was said worth remembering.
Mr. Toole, the comedian, with rosy
cheeks and black wig, looking as deliciously
funny as he is, was there. I saw him talk
ing to Antoinette Sterling, who remem
bered her American birth on this occasion.
Mme. Sterling is the Mrs. Stonda! of the
concert stage. She is the favorite ballad
singer of England, lives in a palace near
Hyde Park, bought from her own earnings,
and lias a remarkably happy domestic
record. She is a very large woman, vftry
stout, and with squarely-cut features and
R massive head. She wears her hair
combed back from her face, and braided
into a thick loop bow on the neck. Her
lace would be plain but for the expression of
intelligence and goodness which is stamped
upon it. Madatne Sterling wore a pale-blue
cress with a train brocaded over with great
flowers. Nearly as largo hut not quite as
stout is Olive Logan, in black, with plenty
“I clack lace, that set off a good complexion,
line blue eyes and soft gray hair.
ESMERALDA IN LONDON.
The most interesting character in the
r- "!n, to many people, -.mis Mrs. Frances
Hodgson Buniett, who is spending the sum
mer in London. She is a woman of medium
height, and has a wonderfully shaped head,
compact, clean in outline, and beautifully
pmsed on a round while neck, sloping into
shoulders that you seldom soo except on an
English woman. Mrs. Burnett has had her
hair cut off, and it clings closely
to her head in little waves of gold.
Her brow is low and broad and her
nose perfectly straight, terminat
ing m well-curved nostrils. She has a deter
mined chin and a firm mouth. I wasstruck
iy the fact that with two other exceptions
sue was t he only woman present who made
■" Use of cosmetics, and she did not appear
I'nJe, though she wore a tight fitting black
|j" Wn p ’it low and without ornaments of any
, pi's. Burnett told me that “Littio
Lord rauntleroy” (her youngest boy) and
brother found tho fourth of July in
London very dull and were exceedingly
■‘i"glisted to discover that their little

WHY JACOB APPEARS SO ILL.
Soma Inside Facts That are Rather In
teaosting.
New York, July 23.—Throughout the
trial of Jacob Sharp the warden of the jail
furnished to the reporters daily bulletins,
tolling how dreadfully ill the old man was
during the night, how he was unable to eat
breakfast and how it seemed doubtful if the
prisoner would bo able to got to court.
After the con viction Sharp’s condition was re
ported to le precarious; he was liable to drop
dead at any moment. IXis weak and broken
appearance was graphically described In
the papers, and reporters were detailed to
bang around the jail to get the iii-st news
in the event of his sudden death. Ilis law
3'ers feared that he would not be able to en
dure the snook of being sentenced, and they
declared that ho would die immediately if
sent to prison. Everybody was asked to
pity the sorrows of a poor old man, who had
done nothing hut steal a million ortwoand
buy a board of Aldermen. Judge Barrett
was urged to have mercy on this interesting
invalid and impose only a fine, so that he
might go home and die in the bosom of his
family. Jacob was so weak that he had to
lie carried into court to receive sentence,
and he could scarcely raise his head from
his breast. He could not stand while sen
tence was being pronounced, but when the
Judge gave him only four years and a fine
that is less than the fee of one of his law
yers, old Jacob Sharp could not wholly con
ceal his satisfaction at the success of his
plan. There was a sudden recovery of ani
mation for an instant and a gleam of tri
umph in his eyes. Then ho recollected, and
sunk once more into a semi-stupor. He was
taken down to the Sheriff’s office to wait
while the place of detention, pending the
transfer to Sing Sing, should be selected.
The reportei-s were not admitted, but were
kept waiting outside for official news. The
official news given out was that the long
stay in the Sheriff's office was caused by
Mr. Sharp’s sudden and alarming illness.
That report was given out, as all the re
ports about the boodler’s deplorable condi
tion had been, by his legal custodians and
his lawyers. It was simply and absolutely
false. One man connected with the press
had quietly w alked into the Sheriff’s office
and taken nis seat in a corner where nobody
paid fmy attention to him. He asked no
questions, did not make himself conspicuous,
and he closely observed everything that oc
curred. He saw' Jacob Sharp’s miraculous
recovery from his semi-stupor and dejection.
He saw this feeble old man talk in a very
animated and healthy manner to his coun
sel for half an hour at a stretch without fa
tigue. He saw' the officers who had charge
of the prisoner go to him for instruc
tions and listen in a deferential manner to
what he said. Their attitude toward Sharp
w'as singularly similar to the attitude of
servant toward an employer. There was
nothing in their manner to indicate that
they wore turnkeys and he a prisoner. The
Sheriff w as in doubt whether he had a right
to send Sharp back to comfortable quarters
in Ludlow Street Jail, or if Sharp should
be sent to the Tombs like any other crimi
nal. He said he would take legal advice on
the matter. He consulted with Sharp’s
lawyers and then retired to his inner office.
The legal advice must have come by inspi
ration? for no lawyer was summoned to that
inner office. When the Sheriff came out he
was satisfied that ho had p< over to return
the prisoner to comfortable quarters. Then
the old man became feeble again and was
lifted into a carriage. Reports of his pre
carious condition continue to reach the pa
pers from the jail, because the sympathy
dodge may have to be worked again if
Sharp’s lawyers succeed in their appeal.
Sharp is not a well man, but he is not half
as sick as he is represented. It would be in
teresting to know how' much it costs the
great boodler to be on the brink of dissolu
tion every morning when the reporters call
for news. A. R. Kelly.
DORSHEIMER’S DUEL.
The Practical Joke Played on the New
York Politician.
Washington Special to Indianapolis Journal.
A number of politicians were sitting in one
of the hotel lobbies talking politics and tell
ing stories, when it came to the turn of a
Federal official from New York to relate his
recollections of public men. It happened
that a copy of the New York Star lay on
the tabic liefore him, and that fact reminded
him of Mr. Dorsheimer. "Some years ago,”
he said, “Dorsheimer and Walter Church
were very intimate friends. Some of the
boys put up a job on the former for the
purpose of breaking up the cordiality.
Church was induced to pick a quarrel
with the Lieutenant Governor, and said
something which was regarded by all the
others as an unpardonable insult. We all
urged Dorsheimer to resent the insult in the
only manner open to a gentleman, and told
him that he must send a challenge to
Church. He was very reluctant to do
this, but when assured that Church was
a coward, and that he would certainly
crawl in the dust, the valiant Dorsheimer
sent the challenge. His surprise was
groat indeed when it was promptly
accepted. He was ‘in a hole’ and was
exceedingly anxious to do the crawling
himself. He hunted up his friends who lmu
gotten him into the scrape, and asked what
in the name of all that was good he was to
do. ‘Church,’ he said, ‘has accepted my
challenge and has selected rifles as the
weapons. I never fired a rifle in my life, and
could not hit the side of a cow nt toil paces. ’
He was told that there was no wav in which
he could retreat with honor, ana that tho
onlv thing remaining for him was to practice
constantly until the hour of meeting and
then face his enemy boldly. He begged us all
to find some way out of the serape for him,
but we assured him that that would he im
possible, and that ho must tight. He there
fore began practicing at once, and burned
nearly half a hundred-weight of powder lie
fore the day set for the meeting. At last the
day arrived, and the combatants proceeded
to the field of honor. There was quite a
large party of spectators, including the two
seconds and the necessary surgeons, all of
whom were in the secret except Mr.
Dorsheimer. That gentleman was so
nervous at the thought of taking
human life that he trembled fright
fully When Church saw the
rifio in the bands of the Governor, sawing
the air like the walking beam of an engine,
ho burst out laughing. That was the first
intimation that Doi-sheimer hail that the
proceedings were a pul-up job. He threw
down his gun, and rushing over to Church
si-iwsl him by the hand. He seemed to bo
delighted to shake that MVh but he lmd
nothing to say to any of the others, and I
don't think that lie has really forgiven one
of tho party to this day.

acres of land. Haiti property adjoins the

SOME GOOD CORNERS.

good corner places, suitable for business or

o(licet of the Georgia Central Railroad.
This is an excellent location for a lioarding
houso, and unsurpassed for retail business.
Tho house is roomy and the lot large,
ItOx'.Kl, with much of the space unoccupied,
A splendid stand for business in the im
mediate vicinity'of the H., F. &W. Ry, just
on the thoroughfare leading into the ware
house and offices. This consists of a large
dwelling, with store attached, well Guilt and
convenient. Its proximity to the Depot
gives special valuo to this property for em
ployes, or for persons desiring the patronage
of employes.
Another corner on York and Montgom
ery streets, consisting of store and dwoUing,
is in a location where property is seldom
offered, and never offered long. Purchasers
can always be found for property in this
vicinity, on account of its nearness to the
Market, Bay street and the retail street*.
(Considered as an investment, it will always
be in demand by tenants.
A West Broad and Jones street corner is
the last on the list. This is among tho best
of West Broad corners. Particulars cau be
had at my office.
A Few Residences
A double house in the eastern portion of
the city, near tho Bay. This is an exceed
ingly pleasant location, facing a square. It
will bo an admirable home for persons doing
bc-nass in that section.

near Farm. In this locality homes always
rent well. This is particularly recom
mended to per* ms desiring a small, snug
investment, and those drawn in Loan Asso
ciations.
A neat and comfortable cottage in th
southwestern portion of the city. This is
t'usl the nlaco m which to commence UctM*
eeping life.
