Xmma Abbott Suoouti Topics of Some Feminine Interest and Allndss to Her Little Scab—What She Thinks of Cremation—A Midnight Interr.ew with Alice Oates. Kansas City Times. The Coates house was the scene of a busy, bustling excitement at 9:30 o’clock last night. The Abbott company arrived from St. Louis on the Missouri Pacific and registered at nine o’clock. Colonel Coates was busy himself assigning rooms to rlie guests, when the Times reporter arrived on the scene, and led the way himself to the apartments of the iair Emma, when an answering message to cards already sent up hail been received, saying “ascend.” “Let's go up the elevator,” said the colonel. The colonel himself run the elevator. During the excitement of the occasion he was acting as clerk, bell boy and porter. Wc went up. The parlor lloor, was passed to the surprise of the reporter, the second, third, fourth floors, and finally the elevator stopped/vith a jerk. It had evidently struck against the roof of the housa The colonel jumped lightly to tne floor. Tho reporter followed and proceeded to room HO, where iu a moment Miss Abbott came dancing in as brightly as if thoughts of blistering vaccinnation (on the left limb) hud never entered her head. Miss Abbott was dressed in a dark traveling costume of some kind of cloth. The reporter knew what it is but he has forgotten. It was not old, hut it might have been moire antique. “I always sleep at the top of the house,” exclaimed the volatile little diva. “I cannot sleep if there is anybody over my head. And i must have the room darkened, just as dark as it can he. They are putting up the curtains now. Then I cun sleep sounder than any body. Hut 1 get so excited in these operas” with a gesture of impatience—“I cannot steep unless I have perfect quiet after then.’ “Maggi-c-c-e,” in a prolonged falsetto key, “bring me my cloak.” The cloak was brought by tho maid, and ns Miss Abbott put it on she exclaimed: “Oh, I am in such splendid voice, and I feci so good since I got over my vaccination. I feel as if I would like to do something awful, think you will say you never heard me sing before.” “And then the new opera house. That is grand.” “Is the ceiling high? Yes. Well, I’m glad of that. 1 want to <lo my best in Kansas City, and 1 used to so hate to sing in that old opera house. 1 wanted to do my best in Kansas City, the people are so appreciative, but I could do nothing there. I would just as leave sing with my head stuck in a feather bag. It was the same way in St. Louis, until this last time, too.” Miss Abbott, herself, introduced the subject of vaccination—by saying she was so glad she had gotton over it. lint oh I it was liorriblo while it lasted. She was vaccinated two months, and almost tecls the efiect of it yet. She was vaccinated on the limb, "leg” as she f iroiiiplly calls it, utiovc the knee, “and what lorrihlc times 1 had. It made it worse, be cause I would not break Disengagements, an would not limp on the atas(e! KvfcVy tiling] put down my loot I felt as jf a thousand dag gers were sticking in it. I used to limp up to the wings this way—and the sprightly artist illustrated the unpleasant dilemma shp was in —and then 1 would walk out on the stage as straight as any hotly.” “ilow did you do in your famous stage falls?” “1 always fell on my right side (with a laugh.Louis last'Thursday in Julit^B^BR.t square on the scab. O-o-li! it r^H[H^^tiddcr to thijik about it. And I luRro^irag thyself up into Castle's arms with that scab dragging right on the lloor. 1 have a bandage around it yet." ' And the diva ran her hand over her mangled limb caress ingly ns a mother would smooth the head of a sobbing child. "I made every member of the company get vaccinated,” said Miss Abbott. “And poor Annandale was so sick.” Just then a good looking, well made girl looked in tho door and cried: “Miss Abbott, have i’ou the sticking plaster?” “Yes; go to Maggie,” replied the cantatrice, “and yov can get some. Maggie-e-c, give Lizzie the sticking plaster. “Poor Annandale,” she said;* ‘that was An nulate. But ain’t that awfully impoetie?” And then with a moment’s reversion to her self, she exclaimed: “Thank God, 1 have the use of my legs again,” and the vaccination question was dropped. No it wasn’t Castle was vaccinated-too—on the arm “And in that beautiful scene in Faust," said our Margucritn, "where he leans over to whisper loving words in my ear, he exclaimed night before lest: ‘(illit pinching my vaccina tion.’ I pinched it after that every time 1 got a chance.” "You know I am a hobbyist,” said Miss Abbott. “I was afraid of smaU-pox, and 1 was bound to have every member vaccinated, and then I am a creamationist. Didn't you know that. No? Well 1 will tell you all about it. “You see 1 was in Washington when the body of Mrs. Pitman was cremated. With a woman’s curiosity, and my particular share of it, 1 was determined to find out all about it. l)r. I.emoync showed me the whole process. You don’t bum up. It just bleaches the Ji><?ues oil nice and white. And then it is so much eiicaper than an expensive fashionable funeral. ■'ll ouly costs $12 to be cremated, and I iold Dr. Lcmoyne that as I was a professional person I expected the regular one-third off. 1 made a con tract with him to be cremated for is. I have talked cremation into the whole company. Miss Abbott said that on the ninth day in Minneapolis she could hardly get on the stage at all, her leg was so sore. As she went strutting about, she reminded herself of Grimald^in Hunipty Dumptv, the inimitable facial contortionist, who could laugh with one side of his mouth and smile with the other. "1 shall never forget Miss Roscwald's kind ness,’.’* she said. “She sang eight times a week, and part of the time X could only be carried on the stage and sing an aria or buf- lad, supporting myself by a chair, and stand ing on one leg like a duck. Ain’t it ducks that stand on one foot? Cranes, you say? Well, I know I was a goose.” “Did you sing against Patti in St. Louis Saturday night?” “No; I sang in the afternoon. It was the largest matinee I ever had. In the evening 1 went to hear Patti. She is so delightful. She (lined with me all the time, and threw kisses to where 1 was sitting iu the box. She is such an eatable, kissable little woman. First I would kiss her, and then she would kiss me. We pecked at each other like doves. I do think slie is the sweetest woman on the stage.” Speaking of interviews, Miss Abbott said: “Did you see that interview with me in the Globed Democrat, *Kmma Abbott as a repor- terr “It was too funny. I wanted to show it to 1 Patti, but she said 'no. I will read no Ameri can newspapers. I thought the European newsjiapera were bad enough, but these are worse.’ Poor Patti. She don't like the news papers, they have abused her so much—and Nicolini." Miss Abbott said she had had a very suc cessful season and some of the new people in the company were great favorites. Of these there is Alisa Annandale, the contralto, who took Miss Maurel’s place. Maurcl is now in Boston, where she has re mained since the birth of her baby. Miss Abbott does not know when she will rejoin the company. Miss Abbott acknowledges that she lias been very extravagant during the past year. Hie has bought many new and beautiful dresses. One of these is a heliotrope satin, and fairly loaded down with lace. Miss Ab bott wore last night a plain jet and diamond locket for jewelry and turquoise surrounded by diamonds for eardrops. She has some very beautiful bracelets. On one is a rose with thirty-three diamonds representing dew drops glistening on the petal, and then a lit tle field flower of marguevite made of dia monds. The stamina of the flower is repre sented by an eight and one half karat dia mond. “Mr. Wetherell says I must take exercise every day on account of my vaccination.” washer parting remark. "I am going out shopping to-morrow, and riding or walking every day.” HOW ALICE OATES WILL TAKE IT. A Denver reporter determined to be ahead and interview Alice Oates the very night of her arrival in town. She had retired, but he knocked at the door in a very determined manner. “Whose there?” queried Alice. “Reporter.” “What you want?” “Want interview you.” “Can’t to-night.” “But I must." “Why?” “Very important." “Oh dear, said Alice; then she slid out on the floor, and, mounting a chair, talked to the reporter through the transom. “Well,” said she, “what is it?” Wait," said he, and running away he soon caino with a chair which he moupted from the other side. Thus they gazed mournfully at each other through the narrow aperture. “What is it, you bad boy, that can’t wait till to-morrow. AAybody tlead?” “I wanted to ask you about the small-pox,” said he. “What about it?” “Wanted to ask if you have ever had it?” “Bless you, no; but they ’haint got it in the house, have they?” “No.” „ “Well, then, what did yon want to inquire about it?” “Wanted to ask if you were goingto be vac cinated while here, and if so, whether on the arm or liko Emma Abbott, you know, .” “There!” said Alice, “this beats them all. Well, you may say that I am going to have it put in the back of mv neck.” “Sure?” “Sure.” “Well, good-by. Thank you." “Good-by," said Alice. Come again later,” and thenshe said that for enterprise in search ing for real news and obtaining it under diffi culties, the Denver newspapers beat any in the world. BARNUM’S BABY. THAT IS, THE YOUNG IN FANT WITH IVORY TUSKS. A Sensation Produced in Sow Haven by the Birth of an Elephant—The Crowd ot Attendant Spectators—Barnum Fondling His Hew Pound Pet. A FEW REPLIES To Numerous Inquiries Relative to Florida and Ilow toilet There. Atlanta, February 1.—[Special Correspondence.] —I append herewith answers to a number of private letters written me concerning Florida, the best route by which to get there, the price of land, etc. Traveling in Florida Is expensive. The hotels range in price from $3.50 to St per day, but are first- class in every respect. Board may be had in private houses at from f 2 to S3 a day, but I would not ad' vise transient visitors to risk this. Steamboat fares are about #6 for a day and night's travel, including fare and berths. The boats are very much crowded now arid cots aroused nightly in the cabins for the com Tort of passengers. It is not a good idea to buy return tickets on the steamers, as the discount is small aud the return tickets are good only on cer tain boats. A pleasant trip for persons who really desire to sec Florida is about as follows: Leaving Atlanta (it 2 o’clock you reach Jackson ville at a the next day. Boats can be taken at once for the river. There is little to see beside the river, which is somewhat monotonous between Jackson ville and Enterprise unless a visit is made to St, Augjirti'jMALiUi'b will required full day.. At En terprise there Is a good hotel any tolerable fiflihig. Leaving Enterprise on ^Mondays; and Thursdays Is the Marian! which makes trips to the head waters of the St. Johns. The faro on the boat is six dollars, including everything. This boat carries the traveler to within two miles of Indian river, and there are good hacks which make the overland trip. At Rock Ledcc there is a capital hotel. From this point sail boats to accommodate a dozen people hough-not with comfortable sleeping accommoda tions, can be chartered for three or four dollars per day to make trips either up or down the river or to tho ocean. If I were to take the trip again I would go to Enterprise, spend a day or two fishing there, give n day perhaps, to the Georgia colony at San ford, which is just across the lake, and then go im mediately to the upper St. Johns aud Indian rivers. The villages of Florida this side of Enterprisedifier but little from villages in any other state, except that orange trees are substituted for apple trees. After-leaving Enterprise the entire character of the scenery changes, and one is thoroughly iu the tropics. The constant fishing and shooting between Sanford and Jacksonville has made game some what scarce, although there Is good sport to be had by taking the railroad or private conveyance for excursions from the beaten track. At Enterprise there is pretty good fishing, Judge Hillyer’s record while there ranging from twelve to twenty-two trout daily. At the head of the St. Johns, the most ordinary fisher can take from twenty-five to one hundred trout daily. There is no quail shoot ing in the state to compare with the same sport in Georgia. The duck shooting this year is bad, owing to the warmth of the season, but vast flocks can be found by anyone who is willing to wade after them. Deer are shot Constantly and th* hotels are supplied with veni son and daily shipments made to other markets. The fruit is much finer on Indian river than it is higher up in the state. A three weeks trip on this route ought not to eost over a hundred and twenty- five dollars to the person, and can hardly be made comfortably for less. I would not advise the taking of servants or dogs, as hunters can be found at every locality ready for a small sum to poiut out the ganio. It is Impossible to advise as to where it is best to purchase lauds iu Florida, or whether it is best to purchase at all. Orange growing certainly prom ises a very large profit and has succeeded admira bly with those who have given it a iair trial'up to date. That it must grow Into an enormous indus try rannot be doubled. There re so many contin gencies involved, however, in the selection of ,a proper location that no one should buy without a personal inspection and without advice from some one who is acquainted wilh orange culture and with the character of the land he is about to pur chase There is no laud for sale on Kock Ledge Hammock except at prices that put it out of the question, and this is measurably true of the best hammocks along Indian river. While al most anr land in Florida can be purchased It is held at stiff figures, except where it is owned by companies in large lots and is of indiscriminate quality. The best way is to organize a colony of several people who think of investing, and then let some trusted person make the purchase for all. As New Haves, Conn., February 6.—Queen, the mother of the baby elephant, bad to be chained, but snapped a beam in two, giving the attendants a needless scare, for other chains held. The little stranger was ushered into the world with loud trumpetings. which were taken up by nineteen other elephants, and were answered by growls and cries from lions, tigers and other animals, and the noise was terrific. About an hour after the baby was born it was able to take a few steps. The little one’s feet were of. a pink tint at birth, but in an hour they had become dark in color. Two or three hours after giving birth to the baby, Queen became subdued enough to lie down awhile, and in the in terval all those present had an oppor tunity to get a better look at the curiosity. Queen would toss hay over it, try to roll it about, and manifested a feeling of joy over its coming and motherly love for it generally. Oftentimes the spectators would cry out in subdued tones of alarm for fear the huge beast would trample on or crush her precious charge, but clumsy as she appeared to be, she was as careful as a mother would be of her new-born babe, and low endearing trumpet ings told of the pleasure she felt. Barnum had the baby insured for $30,000 by private parties for one year. He named it America. It weighed 145 pounds at birth. Columbia, the other baby elephant, weighed at birth 213 pounds, and gained one pound per day for one year. Prof. Arstingstall, who had charge of Queen, said: “The baby, which stands 2}■£feet high, will not be weaned in two years. It nurses, and wc shall not give it any artificial food for a long time. As you see, it is per fectly formed, and when you look at it you would think you were looking at a full-grown elephant through the smaller end of a spy glass. Wc have of late been feeding th-e mother on cracked oats, oatmeal crackers and bread, and occasionally crackers soaked in Jamaica rum. We shall continue this diet for some time. The baby is all right now, and will undoubtedly live and thrive, necessary, I could move it to another city in a week. * By that time if you come here you will see it running about this ring playful as a kitten.” Barnum when asked to approach and touch the baby declined. “I don’t care,” he said “I was once asked to go up in a balloon and said I would gladly if I had two lives.” He was finally persuaded to fondle the little stronger, and while the mother permitted it, it was plain to be seen she did not like it. after the birth the baby lay on the straw, a dark-looking object, the size of Newfoundland dog. Over this Queen roeked and tramped all the time, uttering fearful cries. She wtyld tug away with a mighty effort at the ropes attached to her hind legs, and rear and plunge like a young colt. Not even Professor Arstingstall dared venture near her while she was laboring under this tremendous excitement. Exhausted by her efforts the beast would fall on her side to the straw. Soon recovering she would rise and give vent to a series of howls, and begi the same tramping of the ground, tugging i tliejropes, and endeavoring to free her fore iegs- frorn the chain which held her to a huge post in the center of the ring. All this time the ler circled about the animal, endea oy endearing words to calm her excitement- At timeswe way Id .try to pick hen.baby up, but failing in- this she would sqap at the trainer and give vent to fierce howls. To night the mother is approachable. Barnum intends to take the mother and baby to New Y ork soon for exhibition. she borreed $50 out uv the money in the bank to buy tilings for the weddin’. “Sez I, ‘Margaret, go aizv wid the money.’ Oh, it’s savin I’ll be,’ sez she, but she spi'nt every blissid cint uv it that very day in shoes and ribbons and sleppers and fo'l-de-rols. ‘The day before Christ mas,’ sez I, ‘it’s murried in the niomin we’ll be.’ ‘Phwat tnomin?’ sez she, openin’ her oyes an starrin’ in me face. ‘Christmas morniri,’ sez I. ‘It’s New Yearns I sed,' sez she. as bould as brass. I wur kilm’ mad. brt she stud like a cow in tlic mud and cud nayther be druv nor blarneyed. So I waited, an’ to put her intil sphirrits I gev her a $27 goold ring. On New Year’s day she wint off wid young Tom Monahan to a raffle and sint me a litther saying she’d not marry me if I wuz made of goold. Mind that, now. She sint tne an ould ring worth 20 cints an’ vowed it wuz the wedfiin’ ring I gave lntr. I want warrant for her and she’ll be put in jail, so she will, for her decavin’ thriefc.” Yesterday an officer recovered the ring from Miss Casev, and later in the day the un happy Lycet "brought suit against her for breach of promise. PERRY AVIS’ AIN KILLER. Diphtheria THE NEW ROAD TO FIELDS. THE COAL The Georgia FaciQc Mal.cn ltd First Trip. Yesterday afternoon quite a crowd of peo ple congregated at the railroad crossing, on Fotindry street, to sec the first train on the Georgia Pacific road leave Atlanta for the Chattahoochee river. The train was composed of seven flat cars all loaded with iron. They were drawn by “ The Samp- soil,” a Western and Atlantic engine, and at two o’clock David Queen pulied the throttle that set the first train on this new road in motion. On the cars were several Atlanta gentlemen who have been waiting for years to see this much needed line 'con structed, and when the train moved off a shout of joy went up from those on the cars as well as from the vast throng which stood upon the side tracks and watched it as it 'rounded the curve near the exposition hotel and then passed from view. The road to the river was in an excellent condition, and the run was a rapid one. From town to the Chattahoochee the passengers could see the Western and Atlantic road, se close together do they run. Arriving at the river Mr. George Rodgers, the con ductor in charge of the train, an nounced for the first time the first station on the Georgia Pacific and then the passengers alighted, and while the hands quickly unloaded the cars, took a synopsis of the work going on at the river. The bridge they found nearly finished, and were gratified when told that the iron would be laid to-day, and that the first train would pass over'in the morning. After a half hour had been spent in examining the bridge and the work in that locality, Conductor Rodgers shouted “all aboard for Atlanta by tlic Georgia Pacific, and in no time the train was running along at the rate of forty miles an hour. At five o’clock Engineer Queen wliist-led down brakes and in a few seconds the train came to a halt at the Foundry street crossing and the passen gers who rode on the first train on the Geor gia Pacific disembarked and went home to tell their children all about it. They then wrote a page in their diaries and pinned a blue ribbon to the bottom of it and laid it away for future generations.

As to the health of Florida iu the summer I am not able to speak. The musquitoes and various insects are very troublesome durir g the summer months, but there are many people who live In Florida year after year without moving out at all, and they seem to be al>out os h- alley as the same class of people else where. Up to the time I left Florida very few inva lids had found their way up to Indian river. This class of visitors stop along the St. Johns or off to the right in the Orlando and Maitland regions. Titusville is situated about twenty miles above Rock Ledge, on Ihe Indian river, and is a fine place of resort. There are no steamboats running on the Indian river, and it must be reached via the St.Johns with An Action for a Breach of Promise, and Agatast u Fair Becelver. Philadelphia Times. All Nicetown is laughing over the discom fiture of Michael Lycet, who has in no less than three instances within the past year-been the victim of misplaced confidence in fickle women. As a final resort he has appealed to the courts, and instituted a breach of promise suit against the girl he last fixed his affections on. For many years Michael was one of the most energetic spike drivers in the employ of the Reading railroad company at Doylestown, and being a person of regular habits saved several hun dred dollars. Having no particular use for the money he, when 37 years of age, resolved to indulge in the luxury of a wife, but not being familiar with the habits and customs, or, as he expresses it. “the goings on,” of the gentler s-x, made no progress in his hunt for a companion until he fell in with a Milesian named Madigan. of whom he asked assistance. Mr. Madigan is a fiddler, and is reputed to know the merits and demerits of every mar riageable woman between Reading and Cou- shohorken. In his hour of despondency Michael un bosomed himself to Madigan, who agreed for the small fee of $10 to find a bouncing girl willing to become Mrs. Lycet. Madigan got the fee and three days later introduced nis employer t® one Miss Dolan, but Michael ol> jected'to certain peculiarities of her visual organs. Madigan said Lycet was too particu lar and demanded an additional fee of $10 be fore he wont in search of a Venus tU't would meet the approval of bis patron. After inspecting three nymphs unearthed by the indefatigable fiddler. Mi chael found in a Miss Degan all the perfec tions of her adorable sex, and made love to her in orthodox style. He gave her two dresses, a bracelet, an umbrella and a tin type of his own countenance. On the strength of the grace witli which she received the last named token of his affection, he offered her the original, hut she declined the honor, and two weeks later cat him dead. With a broken heart and crushed spirit lie sought pastures new in Nicetown, where he found employ ment last fall, and two weeks later met a Miss Casey at a raffle given by a mutual friend. Michael followed his old policy of courtship, and soon Miss Casey burst upon the public with a green silk dress, a pair of $8 gaiters, a gorgeous bonnet, white kid gloves, and other highly tinted plumage, all of which were purchased by “hur Mike,” as Mr. Lycet bitterly avers she called him. It finally dawned upon Michael that his courtship was frightfully expensive, and that week after week went by without his being any nearer matrimony than he was before he left Bucks county. Not long after this Miss Casey jilted him. In tijpc—and by the way an exceedingly brief period it was—the victim’s wounded heart healed and his attention was attracted by Maggie Moran, the daughter of his board ing mistress.

' All who cat are interested to know that nearly all the butter offered for sale in our large cities owes its rich golden color to artificial additions. The Scientific American gives several recipes in use among butter-dyers. Annotto and turmeric are commonly employed, but there are also various compounds put up in cans to be sold to the trade. For some of these it is claimed that they only im part the desired colsr to butter, bnt will keep it sweet and fresh for an indefinite time. Ro- Tlck’s recipe calls for lard, six pounds; annotto, six ounces; turmeric, one ounce: salt, ten ounces; nitre half an ounce: bromoehloralum, three and a half ounces, nd as much water as necessary. Theseare well concocted together, and the sham color is then ready for use with either.sham or genuine butter. It is sometimes considered a little difficult to dis tinguish oleomareerine from the article of which it is an imitation, and the difficulty is heightened when the color is good. The semi-transparent character of the imitation is, however, conclusive against it. as well as its waxy gloss of surface, and the false color can be detected by the fact that it Is apt to separate when the oleom.-irgerine is melted.
