PEOPLE AND THIN#

Miss Mary Field, the eldest daughter of the late Eugene Field, is preparing herself to read In publio from her illus trlous father's works. She is a remarkably handsome young woman and will make a distinguished appearance on the platform.

Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton was the first woman to wear the bloomer costume, nearly half a century ago. She wore it all the time and everywhere, consider ing it sensible, till one day her true femininity got the better of her and she disoarded it because it was "ugly."

There have been twenty-four presidents of the United States, twenty-three vice presidents of the United States, and thirty-eight speakers of the house of representatives, but since the establishment of the United States government there have been only eighteen generals In oommand of the United States army.'

Kittle Reed, Speaker Reed's bright 19-year-old daughter, is becoming a great favorite in Washington society. She has the Reed drawl, and people like it. They think it plquante. Miss Reed is simple, sincere and without a shadow of affeotation. She dotosn't like sooiety at all, but goes everywhere "for papa's sake."

When Kentuoky does draw the line on whiskey it is drawn tight. A young man in Crittenden oounty was held last week to answer in the Circuit oourt on a charge of giving liquor to a minor, beoause he gave a glass of eggnog to his sweetheart. Somebody, may be a rejected suitor, saw the occurrence and leported it to the local authorities.

One of the interesting rumors with whioh Washington sooiety amuses itself over afternoon teaottps Is that Senator Hill is to marry the widow of Senator George Hearst, of California. Mrs. Hearst has a beautiful home in that oity and is worth perhaps $29,000,000, most of whioh will go to her son, William R. Hearst, of San Francisco and New York, in case she marries.

Mark Twain Is accompanied on his present lecturing trip by his wife and oharming second daughter. Crossing from San Franoisoo, in September, the humorist opened his talks In Sydney. His tour, which is to last a year, extends over all the Australian oolonies, New Zealand, Mauritius, Ceylon and South Afrloa. Mrs. Clemens Is a oharming and accomplished woman and a famous traveler. She was a native of Buffalo, N. Y., and when Mr. Clemens married her possessed a large fortune.

The meanest man In this country liveB in York, Me. His wife died, the other day. Her illness was prolonged and painful. That did not effeot the hard heart pf the husband, whp sat on be? bedside most of the time and told her, day after day, just how muoh her illness was costing him. Then he footed up the dootor** bills each evening. She died, at last, fortunately for her. While she lay in her coffin, the husband sat down at the side of it, and on the sole of the dead woman's shoe, he figured out the sum total of the money he had expended on her during her illness.

Many years ago W. D. M. Sorrel, of Golden, Colo., saw a portrait of a lady. He fell in love with it and vowed he would never marry until he found the original. Years passed and Sorrel stuck to his pledge. One day he learned that the original of the portrait was Mrs. A. H. Acken, of St. Augustine, Fla. He went to seek heir but found, to his profound mortification, that she was married. That was three years ago. He returned to his wealth and his handsome home in Golden. Two years ago Mrs. Acken's husband mysteriously dlsap peared, and although long and oareful search was made for him, no track could be founrf. Sorrel heard of it and persuaded the woman to get a divorce on the grounds of desertion. An engage ment and a marriage were not long being arranged and Mrs. Acken's wed ding dress was an exaot facsimile of the one she wore when sitting for the por trait which so charmed Sorrel.
