Washington’s New Official
Set Studying Etiquette
What a Woman in Official Society at the Capital
May and May Not Do Socially.
Washington, Dc„ Oct. 29.—Just now
the newly-arrived of official society
are furbishing up on the question of
social etiquette in Washington. A wom
an may be accustomed to the usage of
all the courts of Europe and well vers
ed in all the ins and outs of polite
society in America, and yet ft nd her
self in perfect m’aze of intricacies
as soon as she strikes official rank.
And although one may have been suc
cessfully through the seige last year,
there is always a bewildering uncertain
ty each season as to whether a foreign
minister's wife pays like difference to
a cabinet member's wife. And then
the eternal question of procedenee.
Like Banquo’s ghost it will not down
and no end of jealousies, strifes and
heart-burnings are the result. Among
the hard and fast rules are these: Mrs.
Roosevelt calls upon no one officially,
and acepts no invatations, except to
the annual dinner given by each
cabinet officer’s wife. Mrs. Roosevelt
and the official hostess of the Speaker
of the House (at present an unmar
ried lady, Miss Cannon)’ are the only
two women who are exempt from such
social obligations. The wives of
cabinet officers, justices of the Supreme
Court of senators must call upon
Ambassador’s wives. A trying ordeal
is always in store for the wives of new
ministers from foreign countries, , far
the edict is that they shall call upon
the wives of cabinet officers. Supreme
Court justices and senators first.
This seems an inhospitable custom,
but it is official. The wives of the
members of the House generally m'ake
amends by paying prompt homage to
the wives of ministers.
Having the Time of Her Life.
Miss Alice Roosevelt seems to be
having the time of her life just now,
notwithstanding the continuous good
time she has had ever since “Papa’’
bertime President and Miss Alice re
luctantly consented, solely for his
sake, to come to this frivolous city
which from her then studious point of
view seemed utterly distasteful. She
is still the guest of Mrs. Cornelius
Vanderbilt, at Newport, and nothing
is said about her return to the Cap
ital. The Princes d’ Orleans, who have
apartments at the Muenchinger-King
cottages, have the constant use of
horses and carriages placed at their
disposal by Mrs. Vanderbilt 'and they
are being entertained with Miss Roose
velt at least once, and often several
times every day. The Vanderbilts in
vited a large number of guests for a
week’s end visit, and Mr. Vanderbilt
THE LORD MADE FOOD;
THE DEVIL MADE COOKS
Says Brooklyn Man Who Eats All
His Food Uncooked.
New York, Oct. 29.—" God never
meant man to cook anything. Cook
ing is man’s greatest folly and the
curse of his health. Cooks are not
needed on this earth. The Lord made
food, but the devil made cooks.”
So says Stewart McDougall, a
wealthy old resident of Brooklyn, tak
ing issue with Owen Meredith, who
closed a somewhat famous stanza with
the line. “But civilized man cannot
live without cooks.”
From his mansion Mr. McDougall
has ousted cooks and scullery maids.
His kitchen Are is as extinct as the
dodo. Never an egg nor even a cup of
coffee is now cooked for Mr. McDou
gall's use, and he said last night that
there never would be.
Mr. McDougall is 68 years old and a
widower.
"I am not a faddist, nor even a vege
tarian,” said he. "For one year now I
have had three meals a day, and not a
particle of cooked food. I feel twenty
years younger, and to-day I am In bet
ter health than I have been in thirty
years.
“I eat anything I feel like—meat,
fish and cereals. I believe the chemical
action in cooking poisons more or less
all cooked foods. Coffee cooked is in
jurious, but coffee raw you will find
to be a beneficial and healthful food.
"God never meant that his foodstuffs
should be cooked. If I had my way
all the cooks in New York would be
shipped off. Then you would find all
the doctors following them voluntarily.
My own doctor friends are now trying
my cure, after having treated me for
thirty years, until I started eating ev
erything raw, I was troubled with my
stomach. I ate the best In the land. I
never felt well. I had always some
ailment. This last year I have not had
a single pain.”
To prove his agility Mr. McDougall
laughingly ran lightly upstairs. Later
he sat down to a seven course dinner,
ranging from cocoanut (milk wlhleh is
his "soup”), With raw meal dumplings,
to olives and a big glass of water.

Quiet In Diplomatic Circle*.
The diplomatic circle is the one divis
ion of Washington society which is
exempt from the excitement and anx
ieties of a presidential election. For
them alone the Bth of November holds
neither hope not fear. So, while many
other prominent members of society
are holding their future plans in abey
ance, the hundred or more accomplish
ed gentlemen who represent the entire
civilized world at the American Capi
tal go about their business or pleasure
all undisturbed by coming events.
Following the announcement of the
engagement of the minister from the
Netherlands to Miss Glover, a Wash
ington belle, comes that of Senor Luis
Corea, the Minister from Nicaragua, to
Mrs. Llah Dunlop Jordan of Macon,
Ga. Senor Corea hits already leased
a handsome residence here, and will
take immediate possession. The mar
riage is to occur early next month at
the home of the bride-elect in Macon.
The house which is to be their future
home and legation is being filled with
the rarest treasures of the Old World,
bought by Senor Corea during the past
summer, and with so charming an
American hostess it cannot fall to be
one of the most prominent diplomatic
homes at the Capital.
Mr. Christopher Hauge, charge d’af
faires of Norway and Sweden, is an
other gentleman whose legation will
be presided over by an American
hostess, his marriage to Mrs. Frederick
Joy of Louisville, Ky., having been one
of the most interesting nuptial events
of last summer.
Coveted Her Neighbor’* Cook.
Little things, like stealing the soup
spoons or running away with one's
husband, may be perhaps be forgiven,
but when it comes to alienating the
affections of one’s cook—that is some
thing no self-respecting woman can
ever overlook In another. A well
known lady of Washington—the wife
of a prominent clergyman, by the way
—recently coveted the cook of a West
ern senator's wife not personally
known to her, to such a degree that
she went to the Senator’s house, sub
rosa so to say. and feloniously induced
said cook to leave. One day last week
both the ladies aforesaid met at a
swell dinner party and happening to
be seated opposite one another at the
table, were introduced. The injured
party spoke right out in meeting.
Smiling pleasantly she said: “When
you call at my house again you will
find things ever so much pleasanter
than they were the last time you came.
I now let my cook entertain her
friends In the dining room.”

Grievance*.
Atlanta, Oct. 28.—C01. Henry F. Far
row, the deposed Republican postmas
ter of Gainesville, is in the city visit
ing his daughter.
Col. Farrow, in an interview to-day,
used some pretty severe language with
regard to certain Republican leaders
who were back of the conspiracy to
oust him. J. M. Ashley, the Republi
can candidate for Congress in the
Ninth district; J. B. Gaston, his po
litical lieutenant; Inspector Oldfield of
the Postofflce Department, who was
imported from Ohio, and others Col.
Farrow denounces as "hyenas,”
among other terms, because he says
they took advantage of the time when
he was at the bedside of his dying wife
to formulate and bring to a head their
conspiracy against him.
"I have been a lifelong Republican,"
001. Farrow said, "and have always
voted for the nominees of the party,
but Ashley Is a pill I can't swallow.
I shall cast my vote for Tom Bell,
the Democratic nominee."
001. Farrow said his office was
found In the best condition, and noth
ing could be trumped up against him
but the false charge that he did not
live in Gainesville. He refused, under
the circumstances, to seek reinstate
ment and assisted Mrs. Longstreet to
get the appointment. Her appoint
ment did him much good, he said, be
cause It defeated the efforth of his
enemies to put in one of their men.
He has advised Mrs. Longstreet to re
tain his two assistants* both of whom
are brothers of Democratic Candidate
Bell.
Col. Farrow declares that Ashley
never thought of becoming a citizen
of Georgia until last spring, when he
decided to run for Congress, and that
up to that time, despite his assertion
to the contrary, he had never paid a
cent of taxes In the state. Col. Far
row has affidavit* in support of this
statement.
Hoke Smith Gorm to Speak.
Hon. Hoke Smith, former Secretary
of the Interior, left the city at noon

Dead Veteran Probably Smith.
The one-legged Confederate veteran
whose body was found last night in a
.dieserted house beyond the federal
prison is supposed to be George T.
Smith, as he had a letter and several
cards In his pocket bearing that name.
There is no telling how long he had
been dead, as the body was In a badly
decomposed state. There were no
marks of violence on the body, and
nothing to substantiate the theory of
foul play. The coroner's Jury could
not ascertain the cause of his death
and found a verdict accordingly,
levied n Railroad Property.
City authorities to-day levied on
property of the Atlanta Terminal Com
pany. which Is erecting the new union
passenger station here, for taxes for
1904. Th new depot Is about half com
pleted and Is assessed by the city at
1*70,000. It Is claimed that this Is rail
road property and that It should be
returned to the controller general.
The city holds otherwise and the case
will doubtless be tried in the courts.
