cause of it.
1119 SOCIAL SIDE. #
The political side of the marquis’ charac-
J ig . ell enough known. Socially, he is
an amiable host and entertains lavishly,
both at Hatfield and in London. He is,
•hove all a serious man, and his quiet. ro
Lve.l and almost sullen demeanor rni
nresses one as being more or less affected at
ti res! For instance, a short time ago there
as a tremendous reception given by the
Constitutional club in London. About
0 000 guests were present. Iliey weie of
e’rerv conceivable rank, from am
bassador to commercial travelers,
and the crush was so great
that women’s jewels and the orders of men
were torn from them during their struggles
to get to the doors and windows for
air It wus a night of suffocating
heat At 9:30 o’clock—exactly on
schedule time—a team of bay horses
drew a big state coach up to the
main entrance < f the (dub. A beefy and
highly impressive coachman sat on the box,
a id two slim and well-shaped lackeys stood
on the rumble behind. The police yelled;
“Make way for the prime minister!”
with icteuse emotion, the lackeys
iumped to the ground, took off their
hats, threw open the door, and stood with
their hared heads and tho marquis lum
bered heavily out, and cuinbersomely as
sisted a middle-aged and old-fashioned lady
to alight. Then the prime minister aud his
wife entered the club amid terrific cheers.
Salisbury wore court dress and the order of
tho garter. He looked neither distinguished
nor important, but his reception was such a
one as the Prince of Wales has not receive 1
for rauny years. What struck me most
forcibly about him was the very evident
manner in which he showed that ne
WAS PRODIGIOUSLY BORED
bv the attention he attracted. Asa rule,
when an eminent personage is being
cheered wildly by a thousand or two people
in Europe, a society smile and a series of
affable bows are forthcoming. It is part of
the etiquette of greatness. But Salisbury
neither smiled nor bowed. He stumped
methodically into the building with Lady
Salisbury on his arm, passed up tho aisle,
fought through the crowd of ambas sudors,
ministers and others to the supper room,
made a twenty minutes’ speech, bowed pro
foundly, took Lady (Salisbury on his arm
and strode out of the building, taking the
state coach precisely on the minute it had
hern ordered, and drove rapidly away.
LIKE GRANT.
I never saw but one other man receive
the plaudits of the crowd with such an ap
parent lack of interest. That was Gen.
Grant during a big review. The Emperor
William of Germany never shows the
slightest emotion when the crowds are
cheering him. but he looks over tho people
with an air of some curi'sity aud interest.
Salisbury, being a nobleman and a man of
va t wealth, has all of the high-caste pre
judices aud mannerisms of tho English
swells. Hio same manner of utter and some
what wearied unconcern which distin
guishes the Duke of Portland or the Duke of
Beaufort when a horse lands winner of the
Derby and doubles or divides th 9
duke’s fortune, prevaded the .Marquis of
Salisbury.
From the highest to the lowest it is al
ways tho same among the nobility of Eng
land. It is not only that they wish to ap
pear uninterested in what is going on
around them, but they try to go a bit
further than this and show that they are
bored by any emotion whatever. It is the
characteristic of the caste. I know no
Higher development in this particular form
salt-repression than that which Salisbury
has attained. r

LUNCHING ALONE.
Asa rule, in London, he luuches out, a’d
his favorite place is the Atheneum club. ,
It is one of the most conservative and the
least conspicuous places iu Loudon, and the
house rules are so thoroughly enforced that
it is impossible for an outsider, even of the !
utmost distinction, to get within the club
portals. A foreigner, who is well intr - ’
duced, may get as far the reception room,
but that is aIL The prime minister almost
invariably luuches alone. This 1 was told
once by oue of the governors of the Athe
neum is part of the etiquette of the club,
since the mere fact of a man eating lunch
eon with the prime minister during excit
ing times may lead to unpleasant conse
quences. In the club, as well as in Down
ing street and at home, the marquis inva
riably addresses the servants with the
utmost courtesv. It is always: “Please
haud me this—.” “Pil thank you fcr that.”
It may strike an American that such a
characteristic as t'lis is not worth noti :g.
He may, indeed, think it is a matter of
course among Englishmen of title, but it is
not by a very large majority.
SETTLING HIS BILLS.
The aversion of the marquis to being
gazed at or noticed in the streets is so ex
treme that ho very often emulates the
Prince of Wales and takes a public hansom
instead of the showy private carriage in
which he is expected to drive. Ho divides
his patronage in tho most careful and exact
manner. For instance, if four or five
tradesmen compete for his custom he will
purchase from each one of them for a week
at a time. He insists upon paying his bills
upon tho first of the mouth, exacts the usual
discount for cosh and. it is said, that the
fact that an account has run over for a
month or so before being presented will go
farther toward upsetting him than the im
minent probability of an outbreak upon the
Russian frontier or a fresh twist in the east
ern snarl.
HOW HE DRESSES.
The primo minister's valet is not kept
very busy as a rule, for Salisbury is one of
the mo*t methodically and res sod men in E ig
land. He invariably wears a silk hat, a
black frock suit-, and. even in summer, he
carries what is known as a Chesterfield over
coat. About 1 o’clock—half an hour or so
before luncheon—the minister’s private
secretary calls at Arlington street and
starts the business of the day. After an
hour with him Lord Salisbury goes off to
his luncheon, driving to Downing
street immediately afterward. He
is a keen and ‘ enthusiastic student
of shiff 'does a .groat deal
of reading at nigllti His family is a happy
and united one, Lady Salis
bury goes to tho theater without the pre
mier ho is sure to go and fetch her person
ally after the play, is over. He is a regular
church goer and a great crony of the bish
ops at his club, but the Salisbury of the
church and of the home is a very different
person from the Salisbury of the cabinet.
It is said that that which his confreres
dr ad most is the moment when tho prime
ministsrSmakesuphis mind,for, having once
reached a conviction on any one subject, it
is almost impossible to move him, no matter
how piausibie the arguments or now much
evidence they may he able to lay before
him. Blakely Hall.
GEORGIA’S COLORED LEGISLATOR.
An Ex-Slave Law-Maker Who Haa Not
Forgotten Hia Days of Servitude.
From the .Veto York World.
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 17.—Among the
members of tho present Georgia legislature
is an old-time typical darkey. His name is
ilelver, and ho represents tho county of
Liberty, the stamping ground of the numer
ous false Messiahs, Kin g Solomons and
Queen Marys. Ho is mare than 70 years
old, and has the appearance of the family
carriage driver of tho wealthy ante-bellum
southern planter. Wheu long-winded de
bates are iu progress he leans' back in his
comfortable chair aud snores the happy
hours away.
Mclvor was born aud reared in Liberty
county, twenty-five miles from S ivannah.
He has never forgotten the 1 raining he re
ceived iu slavery times, and, is still punc
tiliously polite to the white people, never
forcing himself whore ha is not wanted.
Although many years have pa sed since he
was male free, and although he has been
honored by his county, he is still a negro, a
living illustration of the old adage, “Vv hat’s
bred in tho bone will come out in the flesh.”
Shortly after he came to Atlanta there
was an off day ill the legislature. Mclver
spent it in Rome visiting tus old mistress,
who lives thoro. He wore a suit of “store
bought clothes, over which was an overcoat
of stylish cut. Just before leaving the
home of his old mistress, he turned to one
of her grown sons who was present and
said:
“Ross, ain’t you got ary oie coat you can
give de 010 man?”
A cast-off coat was given him. and as the
cheapest way of carrying it he put it on
over his overcoat and wore it back to his
humble boarding-house in Atlanta. Mclver
has a very high regard for Savannah and
her people, esptupial}y for a Mr. Clifton, a
fellow-legislator, whose homo is there. On
one occasion an excursion was tendered the
legislature to a neighboring city. Each
member was provided with a badge, and
Mclver pinned his coat and started
for the depot. He stopped at the boarding
place of Mr. Ciifton and -offered to carry
his valise to thedtdiri. The offer was ac
cepted and the unusual sight was seen of a
wnite legislator'!;Gkig along tho streets with
a badge on -tur coutV"folk)wrd bv a black
legislator bearing his valise and wearing on
his coat the sayio sort of a budge.
On reaching the depot Mclver placed the
valise in an out-of-the-way place and fol
lowed his white colleague, ready to obey his
every beck and call. Mr. Clifton missed
the valise, and, turning to Mclver, said:
“My goodness, Mclver, you mustn’t set
that valise dowu; somebody will steal it!”
“All right, boss, Pll git bit iu a minnit,”
exclaimed tbe old man, end, securing the
valise, ho followed Mr. Clifton into the car,
removing his ligt as ho entered. Ho de
posited the valiso by its owner ami then
sought the car provided for the colored
people, w'hero he seemed at hia ease once
more.
