That the most humiliating feature of mod em society is to be found in the artifices of those who wish to “got on” in the fashiona ble world has often enough been remarked; yet there is still roqm for amazement at the ingenuity of the devices to which snobs will resort. VVo liavo had a good many weddings recently in the neighborhood of boston, and among other bridai of high social position has been Miss X , whose family is rather noted for its exclusiveness. When the invi tations for the wedding were sent out Mrs. A . a woman who is really devoured by serial ambition, was not included in the list of guests. She had met Mrs. X. and had somewhat overstepped the strict proprieties of etiquette in the manner in which she had called upon that exclusive lady. Now, sho was doubtless much chagrined at not re ceiving a card for a wedding which was to be a very lnrge one, but she was by no tncans ready to abandon the field. On tho day after the invitations wont out Mrs. A. sent Miss X. u valuable and well-selected Jiiece of plate as a wedding gift. Miss X., ui the privacy of a select circle of intimate friends, declared that she would not have fin' present. It was urged upon her that she certainly could not return it. “But 1 will not acknowledge it!” she de clar'd angrily. (i "Hut then, my dear,” her mother said, ‘you will lie putting yourself in the wrong, i ou cannot be rude, and especially to a uo bdy hk.> Mrs. A." “1 don’t cure.u persisted the daughter, “I will not iuvlte her anyway. This is my wedding and I will have whom I please, oho cun t buy an invitation with her trump ery old pivsyit." Hut, of eojrso, in tho end, Mrs. A. was tnvjted. und the appeared at the wedding with the air tf being the most intimate friend of the family. It amused those who knew the story,but Mrs. A. is clever enough to make the fact that she was there tell for a good deal in ter struggle up the social height*. 1 A still more amazing trick was resorted o uv a Boston lady this winter to get to a reception where she wished to appear. She wrote to the hostess, to whom she had never even been presented, that she had a lady high in Washington society staying with her, and that it was so much the custom in ” as hington to attend receptions uninvited that her friend had seen no impropriety in telling some acquaintances that she would meet them at this gathering. The note went on to say that as hostess the writer was put in so awkward a position that she bad ventured to lay the case liefore the lady giving the entertainment, hoping that she would be willing to send cards to herself and the stranger. On this occasion the scheme was a failure. The note was an swered merely by a formal regret that the list of guests having been made up liefore the receipt of Mrs. ’s note it was impos sible to comply with her request. The lady from Washington probably never knew of the use made of her name. At least she did not present herself at the reception. And speaking of the Washington vice of intruding upon social gatherings, which has become so much of a scandal that it is strange hostesses at the capital do not in self-defense resort to the device of demand ing cards at the door, a lady of that city told me recently of her own experience. “I sent out invitations,” she said, “to 800. Anywhere but in Washington that would have meant about GOO guests. I ordered supper for 1,000. About 1,300 came. When supper was served a mob precipitated itself on the dining-room, and of course the unin vited were first on hand. Not very long after I went myself to see that the wife of Senator Q., whom I especially wanted to be polite to, had something to eat. The dining room looked as if it had been sacked by a famished army. 1 looked about and I said to her: “Mrs. Q., there is a candle on that table, if you are Russian enough to eat it; and over there is half an orange.’ That is positively all there was left, and the caterer said I was fortunate that the mob did not carry off the dishes and the furniture. Party giving in Washington has come to mere opening your house to a mob of people you wouldn’t know for the world and for my part lam sick of it. I shall gjve dinner parties hereafter. That will take care of the people I most care about and the rest must go.” Happily we have not come to this in Bos ton but people do make frantic efforts to get into the proper sets, resorting to tricks too snobbish and mean to be endurable or, in deed, believable, did not one know that they exist. A Tragedy In Five Chapters From the Chicago Tribune. I. “Who was that in your box the other night. Mollie?” asked a beautiful blonde be ing, framed by nature to support the strug gling milliners at the expense of the head family first and some other man after, to a brunette being of the same kind. “O, that was Mr. Smith, of New York. He’s awful handsome, isn’t he, Jqsie?” He’s just splendid.” “He’s of good family, too.” “Introduce me, won’t you?” “O, he’s poor.” “Poor thing!” “I’ll tell you what we’ll do. I’ll keep him for the Santa Cruz trip and you can have him for the springs.” 11. Extract from a letter from Augustus Osar Smith, San Francisco, to his sister in New York: “You will be pleased, my dearest sis, to know, that I am progressing finely in Cali fornia. I have just met a most, charming young lady, Miss Mjollie Blank, whose father has devoted many years most successfully to dollareulture. She is much struck with me, and it seems to be quite genuine. She has invited me so strongly to go to Santa Cruz while her family is there that I trust to con summate the matrimonial scheme very shortly. I feel that I only need speak now to be accpted. Congratulate me!” 111. “How was he, MoUie!” “Who?” “Smith.” “Smith? What Smith?”; “Smith, of New York.” “o,‘he was splendid. The first two weeks we hand an elegant time.” “Well, you remember your promise?” “What about?” “To give him to me.” ' “Certainly. You can have him. He’s all right; very pleasant and agreeable until he proposes to marry you. Then he’s no good. Look out for him. He made eight holes in the sand with his knees at Sanja Cruz imploring me to become Mrs. Smith.” IV. Extract from a letter from A. C. Smith to his sister: “You will be pained to learn that I found the MoUie Blank I told you about a little fool. I couldn’t stand her after two weeks’ acquaintance. You would not have liked her, I know. I have become smitten with a true and noble little woman, Miss Josie of that, coquet. She will make a lovely lit tle wife—and sho is quite as wealthy. lam happy this time, for I know she loves me.” V. Brief note from A. C. Smith to his sister: “My Dearest Sister —Strike father for $250 for mo to get home with. Your affec tionate brother. Gus.” A Difference in Time. From the Dakota Bell. At the territorial firemen’s tournament at Mitchell recently, just after one of the hose carts races, a man who is in business in one of the towns represented stepped up to tho captain of his home company and said: “Jim, that was a good run you boys made.” “We fancy that it was somewhat rapid.” “Your cart looked just like a long red streak.” “I presume so ” “Must have gone the whole distance in ’bout forty seconds, I reckon!” “Thirty-nino and a half is the official time.” “Hplendid time, Jim, splendid time. Say, do you remeniher that little fire that broke out in the back part of my store last winter?” “Why—why—y-e-s I believe so,” “I thought mebbe you did. Started ’bout 2 o’clock in the morning, you recol lect.” “Oh, yes, I remember, yes. Very warm weather we’re having, Mr. Wooler," “Yes; it was quite warm around that fire too. M ust, have been ’bout the same distance from your hose house to my store that you ran to-day f “Just about the same, I should judge. Ex cuse me a moment, I’ve got to go over here and see a man.” “Hold on young fellow, I ain’t quite through with J'ou yet. Perhap you may remember how I worked from 2 o’clock till 8 next morning, carrying water in a pail,and slinging ’round wet blankets, and jumping up and down on the pump-handle! Remem ber it!” “They told me you did. I’ll see you—’ “No yon won’t—you’ll see me right now! Then mebby you heard how the neighbors come and helped and broke their backs car rying water, and how my wife made her self sirk lugging things out of tho store, nnd how everything flnully burned up and tho post office and hank came pretty near going too! Perhaps, too, you may have personal recollection of showing up with your cart at about Bo’clock, after things werodnnesmok ing!

THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 1887. WOES OP A PRETTY TYPE-WRITER. Compelled to Stand a Battery of Piti less Questions. From the New York Tribune. “I should like to give you an idea of how we girls are treated wherever wo go to look for boarding places in this city,” said a young type-writer to a reporter the other day. “You men can obtain board wliore ever you please, and so long as you pay your board bills and behave yourselves, there are no questions asked; but with a girl it is different. When I came to New York, I was fresh from New England, unknown, and without friends here to give me any help or hints. Consequently I had to hunt up a boarding-place for myself. After con siderable looking around, I found a quiet appearing house where the sign stated that a hall room was vacant and that boarders were wanted. “In answer to my ring a kindly-looking matron inquired my business. When I told her that I was looking for a boarding place, a visible change came over her face. “‘Who are you?'was her somewhat ab rupt question. Then she scanned me as if I were a suspected thief, for whose capture a reward had been offered, and without •giv ing me time to answer this pertimeut ques tion, she continued: “ 'Are you married?’ ‘No, I am not,’ 1 said as pleasantly as my mortification would allow. “ ‘What do you expect to do for a living?’ washer next query. “ ‘I am a type-writer.’ “‘A type-writer!’ This was said with a sneer that might mean volumes. “ ‘Have you a brother in the city or any male frionil who will call on you?’ “ ‘No, my family all live in Connecti cut.’ “ ‘Do you keep company with any young maul’ Really I was beginning to lose all patienbe, but I managed to say calmly; ‘I do not, but w!)at has (bat to do with the ques tion of my hiring a room and paying for it in advance?’ “ ‘Have you got any references?’ “I don’t see why I submitted to so much quizzing. That woman could beat a reporter asking questions. ‘No,’ I replied, ‘but if you want them, I suppose I could get them from home in two or throe days.’ “‘Well, I guess we haven’t any room now, and besides, I’d rather have gentle men,’ was the worthy matron’s decision, as she opened the front door only to shut >t quickly behind me. I think I went to fully a dozen places, only to be treated in tho same way. At last I went to the Young Woman’s Christian Association, where I should have gone first. m I never was more thankful in my life then when, after I had been at work for a year and desired to change my place, one of the girls in our of fice invited me to share her room until I was able to find another place. This may all sound very funny to you, but it was not a funny experience for me; and my experience is by no means unusual. A man can get rooms and board where he chooses, with out references and without questions, but when a girl trios to get board for herself, if she is well-dressed, her character is doubt ed, and there is ‘no room' for her; people wonder where she gets her money. If she is poorly dressed, she is naturally not want ed, because she will lower the reputation of the house. She must, in all self-defence, marry or at least become engaged, if she have no male relative under whose protec tion she is. It does seem as if something might be done for poor girls who come to the city in this way. There ought to be somebody willing to take them and care for them respectably and economically, and do this without sacrificing the self-respect of the girl.” A Girl Claims to Have Been Cured by Faith. From the New York Tribune. No little interest has been aroused in tho village of Northport, L. 1., by what is said to be a veritable and vvoll-autenticated faith cure Carrie Webb, of Brooklyn, who has been for years a regular attendant at the Hanson Place Baptist Church in Brooklyn, and a teacher in its Sunday school, has been for years a sufferer from physical weakness, and recently her mental faculties becajne impaired from that cause. Many physicians were consulted and prescribed for the sufferer, but their efforts were with out avail. A few weeks ago Miss Webb went to Northport, L. 1., on a visit to her brother, the Rev. Thomas M. Webb, pastor of the Baptist church in that village. Her condition was the cause of much anxiety to her parents, who feared she would lose her mind entirely. A few Sundays ago Miss Webb, while in a class at the Sunday school attached to her brother’s church, read that portion of tho epistle of St. James which reads: “Is any sick among you, let him call upon the elders of the church and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in tho name of the Lord, and the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up.” At the request of Miss Webb, who had become deeply impressed with the scripture passage, tier brother called a special prayer service in her be half. The service was held in tho parsonage, the Rev. -G. H. Cleveland, pastor of the Presbyterian church, and his wife together with several deacons joining tho Webbs. After several prayers had been offered, the Rev. Mr. Webb anointed her head. Miss Webb says that immediately she became healed both in body and mind. Her state ment is corroborated by her friends. This is said to be the third instance of healing by prayer, faith and ahointing, in which Mr. Webb lias taken part.
