[ Special to TUB Br.i' . ] .Too Jefferson is drawing crowded houses this weak In "Tho KlvnLs , " and ho Is as popular today as when ho first made his nnucumnco on the American stage In n Wash ington theater. This was when Jackson was president and llttlo Joe Jefferson , a boy of four , was carried to the stage in a bag by the famous minstrel Hire , who \v . making a lilt by dancing Jim Crow. Hlco cnmo on the stage and turning the bag upside down tum bled llttlo Joe JclTorson out , and then began to dance. The boy was dressed justllko Hlce , his face was blackened and the two sang verso apart as they danced. As they llnNheil the song the audience was so de lighted that they throw dollars and half dollars lars on the ntago and llttlo Jefferson received $31 for that night's acting. Ho now receives , no ono but his malinger knows how much , mid ho Is as welt ott as any actor on the American stage. Ho is said to bo worth n mlll'on ' , and ha has a sugar plantation In Louisiana , n beautiful country homo in Now .Tet.soy , n quaint seaside cottage on Capo Cod , and bonds and stocks mid gold galoro. Since ho dropped down upon n Washington stage until now ho has been tickling the sides and delighting the souls of a fun-loving public , and every cent of his money has been well- earned by himself , and his great genius has been sold cheap to the peoplo. Ho has child ren and grandchildren but his soul Is as young now as when ho tumbled out of that bag , nnd Ins blueoycs nio ns merry and his volco us cheery ns that of a boy. Ho will bo slxty-ono in February , but Uls acting is ns good now ns it has over been , and ho enjoys a good story , a good laugh and n peed theater as well as any man in the country. llo goes to the theater whenever he canand , 1 caught him nt the hotel today just as ho was about starting ontto sco "Tho Lilliputians" with Hilly Florence. Ho Is a delightful cgnvorsation- nlist and his volco and his manner nro as gentle and good nntured AS IIIO-IH 01' 1111' VAN WIN'KI.i : . Durinutho short chat I had with him X asked him some questions as to his autobiog raphy , which appeared in the Century Mag azine , and Is now being sold over tbo book counters. This book Is ono of the great books of this generation , nnd It is the belief of manygood judges that it will bo ono of thu few which will last. Its style is delightful , and It has been wonderfully successful In its maga/.ino publication. It is full of bright de scriptions and its pictures nro complcto in all their details. I asked Mr. Jefferson as to whether It was uot made uu from n diary , llo replied : 'Ko ' I tiavo never kept n diary , and I had no notes. lam fortunate in having a good memory , and I wrote the entire book from it. I fo'.t ' very doubtiul about undertaking the book. It scorns to mo that an actor under taking to take up the role of the literary roan and to write n book U much like tbo part of u literary man who decides logo onthostago and mnko his tirst appearance in the part of Hamlet. I am glad to see that my work was popular , and It Is n wonder to mo that I have succeeded in malting It so. Ihnvohadtho book In my mind for along time , nnd had in tended to have put the matter in a book form and not In a magazine. My friend , Mr. Gilder , however , advised mo th.it ho could give mo a wider circulation through the mag azine , nnd the result shows that ho was right. "Did you have any regular habit of writ ing ! " I asked. "No , " replied Mr. Jefferson , " 1 began the book about throe years ago and wrote at it by Ills and starts as the humor took mo. At first I kept no notes at all , but after 1 began my writing I found thatmy memory of events nnd persons could bo very vivid at some times and that I could not recall them at all at others. I then carried n note book and made memoranda of material for the book whenever It struck me. It seemed curious to mo the way my mind worked. I would awake In the middle ot tbo night from a sound sleep for no reason that I can sec , and think of some part of my past experiences. If i went asleep again I would Hud la the morning that I knew that I had remembered something during the night which I intended to record when I cot up , but I could not thinic what that something was. After this I had a pencil and note book by my bedside , and at such times as I woke nnd thought of matter for the book I would rise and wrlto out the material. In preparing the book finally I found these memoranda of great value , and that in mostcasoi the llrst records wore better than anything that I could writo. I think on the w hole I am fortunate In not having kept u dairy. It might have caused mo to draw nly otory out to nn insuf ferable length nnd I miglithavo magnified details which wow bolter omitted. I am of coursa pleased that the book did succeed , and I am told that the snip of it has been good1" The conversation hero turned to literature and actors , nnd Mr. Jefferson Bixjko very kindly of the memoirs Mr. Florence is now writing , and which promise to bo full of in terest. Mr. Jefferson said : "I don't sec why an actor should not have a NITUKU. lir.S'T TOWAUU LITER VTUKU and why ho should not write llucntlv and well. Ills whole llfo is made up of the inter pretation of Htor.Uuro. Ho has to study and plity tlio classics. Ho has to appreciate all the phases of thought and expression and In the rendering of these great litrrarry pro ductions , his whole llfo is to a certain extent n lime of education. It would bo strange In deed If ho did not absorb somettilug and ho has also to study the people aim to nirilto liis idea of his parts plain to them. I feel a deli cacy in saying anything about sucn subjects. 1 nm not a professional writer and I doubt if I ever write again. I had a story to toll niul my lltu has been 10 eventful , nnd I hnvu mot so many men about whom I could talk that this Is porliapa ono of the reasons of its suc cess " There nro few better read men than Mr. Jeilcrson. Ho possesses a remarkable cul ture , has done BOIIIO work as an artist which has been well spoken of by the art critics and ho carries his paints and easel with him dur ing his acting. I was curious to know how ho lound time for such a variety of worit , nnd I asked him ns to whether ho had been a sys tematic student during his llfo time. Begin ning his carcor as n l > oy on the stage for trie past fifty years ho has been playlnp to tlio people and you will llnd few college bred men so cultured or well read as ho : In re- sponsj to my question tie said : "Wo , I don't think I have over been much of u student , nnd indeed I don't believe In hard study. 1 would not give a boy anything to learn that would make his head ache , any uioro than I would ivsk him to loam anything that would mnko his backache. 1 don't bo- llevo that It Is the study that Units ttio brow that Improves the mind , but it is that which pleases the student and which the mind easily assimilates. Such things us I have learned from books have come to mo easily and with out effort. My reading has been very varied , nnd 1 roml according to my moods. I can en joy mybclf In almost any of the fields of lit- oraturo. I can spend a pleasant sober hour with Seneca , and I can enjoy a Inuph the same evening over the letters of my friend , William Nve , or as ho U moru commonly called. Bill Nyo. I Imvo my fun with Puck , and 1 become acquainted with my soul with pleasure over TUB I'VOKJ OP EMEItSOX. I dou't mean to say I road ono the same ns ho other. I have sometimes to read a tiago ot Emerson or Hrowilug over several times before I got at 1U meaning , and sometimes I uuvcr get at it- But thu fault lu this cuso U , I nm convinced , with Joe Jefferson himself , nnd not with cither Emerson or Drowning. " Mr. Calvin Bncc , tlio Now York million aire who will take Henry U. Pnyno's plnco ns the next senator from Ohio , has been In the city this week. Ho Is n clean-cut , red- whiskered , blue-eyed young man with n hard stnilo nnd n western manner. I rotwmiber him when ho began his Rionoy-ninklnR career about ten years ago by pushing the Ohio Central railroad down through the rich coal Holds of that state Ho was then often seen about Columbus , with his pantn In his boots , a slouch hat on his head , nud with by no means the best of clothes covcnm ? Ills angular frame. Last night at the Arlington , ho woronslllc hat , a broad cloth coat and every sign of his clothing ilo- noted prosperity , Ten years ago ho was worth nothing. Now ho Is supposed to bo worth imllbna. Ten years ago he was In debt to Governor Foster , nnd it was Foster wno lent him the money nnd give him the boost which enabled him to climb the tree of fortune. Now that ho has plucked the fruit , however , ho seems to have llttlo use for Foster , and I nm told that It was his money and his efforts that caused Foster's defeat as a candidate for congress this year. How ever this mav be , If this is true , the future senator has shown himself to bo the 1NCAIINATIOX OF I.VGIUTlTUnK. Kx-Cnngressmnn Lnmlcson of Lima once told mo that Urlco , when ho was wortli prac tically nothing , owed Foster 8115,000 , , nnd It was only throuuu additional money which Foster put Into enterprises In which ho gave Brlco a sham that enabled him 'a pay this doht. Ho did pay it finally and came out with S181.000 nhead. It was this money that enabled him to organize his nickel-plate scheme , which enabled him to make somewhere - where near ? . ) ,000,000 to $ T > ,000,000 nnd estab lish himself as a big llnunclur. Brlco was asked by McICInloy during his visit how .matters . were In New York. Ho replied : "A dollar in Now York I ? now ns big as the moon , it keeps growing bigger every day anil money Is so tight that we have nothing for Christmas. " "I wish it had been so be fore the election , " replied McKinlcv , and thrrent the two statesmen laughed , unit Brlco laughed the louder. Colonel Moses P. Handy has refused the consul-generalship to Cairo , nnd ho Is happy In his newspaper duties in connection with the world's fair. llo tells moho got the two appointments- the same day , nnd preferred the world's fair position , because it enabled him to remain at home. Handy would have made a good consul-general , nnd ho would have been a refreshing change to some of the men ulio have occupied the Cairo consulates in times past. Si-huylcr was a good man , and Car-dwell who picceded him was above the average of the country editor , the position which ho left to take thn place under Presi dent Cleveland. Wolf was accused of lean ing toward Arabl Pashu and as for E. H. Butler , his mission was ono long carcor of disgrace to America. Ho was drunk during the greater part of tlie time thaVhoheld the position , and when ho got out of funds ho would goto the khcdivo and'aslcforalonnora present on the grounds that the United States government did not give htm enough salary to live upon. America ought to have a very good man at Cairo. Our churches manage the missionary business of the countrv , nnd about two thousand Americans visit I3cypt every winter to see the country and to enjoy the delightful cllmato. Thcro Is no doubt that the proper man might bo able to MAKE AX OI'BNIXO FOll AMEHICAX TIUDE , and the bulk of our goods which now go to Egypt , are sent to LonMon or Holland and there forwarded on to the country under now labels as Dutch or English goods , Dr. Edward Bedloe , our now coilsul to Amoy in China writes me that ho is much bettor and that ho will bo able to lenvo Lon don in ten days for his post. Bedloo is an accomplished linguist. llo has occupied a position at several of the consular ports of Europe , and ho will bo very popular in tbo far oast. Ho proposes to learn the Chinese language , to maku a study of Chinese litera ture , and to open the country as far as possi ble , to our American manufacturers. His ad dress will bo Atnoy , China , and he is in the most thickly populated nud In one of the best parts of the empire. American manufactur ers who have any products that might bo of value totho celestials , will do well to wrlto him , and they will find their Interests pushed from the word "go. " Bodloe Is a member of the Clover club of Philadelphia , and t'uis club is fast becoming a diplomatic institution. General E. Burd Grubb , minister to Spain , is ono of its members , Charles Emory Smith , who represents the United States at the court of the czar , Is another , and Colonel Tom Don- cldson , the census tuker of the redskins , is a third. Major Handy is also a member of the Clover club , and I understand that Bill Nvo will bo elected as one of its members at the next meeting. Korea has at last buried the queen dow ager , and my mail of today brings mo a letter from the capital stating that she was planted in great state on the l.'lth ot lust month. Tills letter speaks very highly of tlw old lady and describes the funeral. It scorns that she atone ono time hold the seals of state , and that she mudo throa kings of Corca. She was a NOMAN OP EXTIIAOIIDIKAUV AllIMTT. and the reigning king washer adopted son. The funeral procession was grand in the ex treme. nnd It must have been very strange to American eyes. My letter describes itjis follows : "Tho procession bearing the body to the grave was composed of two parts as distinct as lifo and death. The forepart included eatables , beautiful banners , animals regally caparisoned , nnd things making up n numer ous rctinuo of horse and of foot as thouirh the queen were going out to a picnic. Behind this was the funeral processloa proper , con taining the catafalque , accompanied by u large military escort. Many u thousand of OFFICIAL IS15O tAXTKUSS lighted the length of the procession , and the king caused certain places along the line of the procession to bo prepared for the use of such of the diplomatic representatives who desired to see something of eastern pagean try. The American minister had an escort of marines and sailors , and a number of the former had Kodah cameras , but it is doubt ful whether any good pictures were gotten , owing to the light and to the difficulty of taking thorn. The collln was not placed into the ground till 4 a. in. , until the opening of anew now day , emblematic of the now lifo for the departed. Although much time was con sumed , the closing ceremonies were very simple. A bountiful repast was spread upon n massive stone tablet in front of ttio mound , and nt this time u son or near relative of the deceased usually bows before the grave. In tlio household of every Korean , each member has u low eating table , and when a father or n mother dies , this table is not taken away , but It is kept in the family and upon it for three years after that , every morning and every evening , thorn is placed a meal for the ghost of the departed. There were nt tlila funeral sedan chairs and wooden horses , praises nnd prayers on many paper rolls together with Incense all these were burned that they might go to the spirit , ami n tablet to her memory was sot up in the tumplo. His majesty the kins mot the pro cession on its return , and the sedan chair In which ho lode was white nnd it was carried between Iwo white horses. An embassy bearing the condolence of the Chinese em peror is expected hero in n day or so , and nftor this time the business of the country may bo resumed. At present nothing Is done by the people or by the court. The civil ser vice examinations have been suspended and thdwholo nation has given itself up to grief. " "Hy the way , " this letter goes on , "I sco In n Washington newspaper the report of an In terview with the Chinese minister to Amer ica In which ho says that the Korean govern ment is indebted to the Chinese government nnd that It cannot make a loan without the tatter's consent. This is preposterous. Korea awes no money to China , and she has long since discarded the Chinese leading strings. Wlion Korea makes up her mind that she wants more money for development nnd Im provement , she knows where to got It without the Intermeddling of Chlnoso officials of higher or low degree. Judge Deunoy , the former foreign advisor to the king , who you will remember U an Oregon man , is still In Seoul. and ho does not seem to know when ho will got through. The English are making a new departure here. They are now sending doc tors and missionaries , including a bishop , nnd it is to bo hoped that they will do less po litical and more Christian work than they have been known to do elsewhere.

Admiral * ikblgron Gives Her Views cli , the Subject THE DANGERfr'XJF HEADY STIMULANTS , * * lloiv to Trent CnllerH-Xcn lcr Society 1-mmbKlim rTito "Haul iloiul" IK Ocn r 1ly Safe tilttlo ' " for Women. As the recurrlnc season nppronchcs , it Is n subject discussed In goclul clrclos , liow fixr young men nro unduly tempted If wlno Is of fered to them whou tltoy mnko tholr round of Now Year's visits. To the direct question : "Shall wo offer wluo to the men who call upon usl" I would answer : "With discrimination. " And whou It Is again ashed : "I'rny , what does that menu ! " I would reply : "Ono cnntiot , on n soclnl point , mnko anabsoluto , r Uo or a dell- nlto law unless Rood morals may bo endan gered , but It Is necessary to bo guided by ti variety of circumstances. " If , us should bu the case , n very cautious survellanco existed , as the charaetcr of the men who form one's circle of acquaintance , any selection thus made would doubtless bo such as to render It quite safe and proper to offer a plnss of wlno. In order to nrrlvo at this conclusion It must of course be presupposed that the carefully chosen guests who visit nt the house nro well known to us , approved as men of good habits , and gentlemen who know how to rival ! thein- oelved of the amenities of life without over stepping the bounds of decorum. , If from dofoctlvo training or Inherent bail qualities such Is not the case , n tnlstaUo will have been mndo in permitting thcso men to visit the Uottso nt nil , and the sooner the 111- tltned acquaintances ceases the better. It Is doubtful If a man who Is not sure of his power of self-command la a desirable ac quisition In any society , for at the best his moral nature needs strengthening before ho can bo ready to battle with the world , inas much as n lack of moral power In any o ne d rcctlon la npt to bo n signal light of danger all around. Or If a man is simply wc.ik , then he Is so negative as to bo. to say the least , unreliable. Is not n high sqnso of honor , a keen sensi tiveness against all renro.ich , the best proof armor In which to encase our youth ) A man must already have u dangerous nt > - petite for drink If n glass of good wine , ten dered on u festive occasion , prove an Incen tive to excess. Education teaches self-ro- struiut , culture enforces the lesson , anil a true gentleman understands the requirements of his social position. It U but n poor compliment to a selected clrclo of friends that wo dare not trust to their rellnemcnt or discretion. This and much inoroinaybu said concerning those delicnto distinctions that mark the Intercourse of the polite world. But huiu ono must pnuso , for no broad line can be safely drawn , no sweeping rule de- mind. On Now Year's day many men visit the houses of merely casual acquaintances , ami how to entcrtaln/8ueh callers must bo left to these particular tircumstances known best to each hostess wliB thus receives. The Christiunrobli atiun of scttlncr n good example may [ never bo Ignored by any woman , and it rests with us also not only to sustain in tact , but to elevate the social standard. * * ' It Is a great responsibility. How can wo best meet It I Again , I repeat , by the exercise of peed common seiiso which involves nice discrimi nation. Certainly thoofllclal receptions of Wash ington nro held upon such a scale that no dis criminations are made and no selections are possible. It may "bo said that "theso assem blages arc , in deed and in fact , public recep tions. The public pay their respects to the lenders. It is u patriarchal sort of business , which can scarcely bo considered as society. Assuredly it would bo unwise to present to a collection of people , of whoso antecedents ono knoxvs nothing , that which might provo a stumbling-block or a snaro. It is Raid that an inebriate is n walking powder inuga/.ino , to which the unparded ap plication of a lighted match might cause spoutancons combustion. At any general assembly , where distinc tion as to the character of participants is im possible , every euro should bo exercised to avoid tempting the weak. Certainly no wino should bo offered whore no Just discrimination can bo practiced. But this is not thoexerciso of hospitality , that graceful trihuto of regard and respect wo pay to these who have won our esteem. Bpcakinp of this subject of hospitality , I am reminded of nu anecdote of Hobcrt Toombs , of Georgia , whom I knew very well In ante-bellum diiys. Ho was a wealthy , typical southern planter , and ho hold a sort of feudal away over the town adjacent to his extensive plan tations. It is told that ho declared that no man should keep a tavern in that townfor ho said ' 'if any strangnr comes along who Is worth knowing I propose to entertain him , but if ho is poor white trash ho must clear out anyhow. " While ono might not exactly subscribe to the way the old planter formulated his opin ion , the principle involved is not bad. If a limn is "worth knowing" ho is worthy of good cheer and hospitable treatment. There li ono thine not to bo overlooked , that there Is nspecial danger of oflcringstlm- ulnnta that tire too nendv on Now Year's day on account of the number of visits that men ar .i expected to make , so that the Inevitable repetition of the glasi that cheers imy CM ! by inebriating. This is n serious objection to the use of wines on that occasion , and ono that should bu carefully weighed. It Is sub jecting to a cruel mortification a sensitive younir man to render him iiiiblo. by hospita ble intent , to do or say silly things. Then , acuin , some very nice young men nro at best , easily muddled , uot being naturally blessed perhaps with extra strength of brain , and to these society lambkins very tender treatment should bo extended and no tempta tion of strong potations allowed. On the other hand , it is always thoughtful to oflcr a glass of choice winu to nu old gen tleman. The presumption being that , if God has honored him with n coronet of silver , or may bo that "bald head , " the scripture teaches us to respect , that no has not reached his thrco-scoro and ten without having learned how to take proper euro of himself. Again , the gradual Introduction of native wines is really n iblcssing , as their general use will help to solvpa difttcult problem. Onu can now procufro pure wine , not intoxi cating , from our ,0 11 vineyards , that are healthful and adapted to this exhaubtliir clim.ito. I When these wines can bo sold at such cheap rates as to upHiithin the rcacti ol people ple of moderate or restricted means , the day or strong drinks will tinvo passed away. I have been told thtit our native wines could bo made at such low nit us us to ho as procur able by poor peoplpXs the wines nro In Ku- rope , but that thp irlfres have to bo held at higher rates in ( irctir to induce the fashion able world to buy tbeii. This , if so , is risM commentary upon ths absurd American sjiuStlvoncss as regnrdstho outlay of inoiojv\vjtek makes it needful to mnko nu nrtlclo liitjb priced to bo hold is es teem. ' I would submjt.lljs reflection to society whenever It mnyfiei ; ino susceptible of any philanthropic considerations. There Is ono rule oj nigh breeding In the exorcise of hospitality that mav well bo ro- mombcrcd at nil times , but especially in this connection , and tnnt ii , never urge a guest to partnko of whatever 3ou may have to offer. U is to bo supposed that the old Spanish custom of unbounded liberality is also ours when wo entertain ocr friends , although wo may not choose- ofur "our house and ull that it contains' * with the Castilllau grandll- oqmico of pnrose , ycVllo spirit of generous hospitality is every\lioro the samo. Wo place before ourguuti whatever may linvo to offer them , mil In doing so wo take It Tor granted they wlllfor the time belngcon- shier our house ns tlelrs. To insist upon choosing for them la i sort of tyranny , not ( jiMcoful. to say the letst. Men often complalnln making a round of visits of this nmiublo hilstenco on the part of the fair hostess , whiel really deprives them of the liberty of choicj and actually onslnvcs their inclinations. It pulllpltes , for Instance , n Rlass of wlno on Now Year's day beyond a prudent or even safe limit. A bashful young man ouco confided to rae tnat this very perslstnnco , which occurs oftcner than Is ngroenblo , formed otic of his most dreaded soclnl woes. Another com- plalnoil of the "awful time" ho had ntncoun- try dinner on this very score , where a Ivnx- eyed hostess scorned to consider him &s n sort of a cormorant , keeping his plate replenished with Incxorablo zeiu. Tlioro Is no liner point In. entertaining than to notice williout seeming to do * o. This , Indeed - deed N that Indolhinulo something which may bo felt but not explained , and that may for the lr.ck of a bolter naniobe called "tact. " However , let no one despair of Its acqui sition , for it has ns Its foundation good feel ing.Can Can It bo that this basis is counted out of pollto society ! Assuredly not. One of Its cherished maxims is , ' 'Lead us not into temptation , "oven with a glass of wlne.whcii not advisable , on Now Year's day. After all , any luconslilernto or foolish con duct that infill result from the too frco use of wine by u guest , oven if accidental or un- forsepn , must always be a source of lioonost mortification to the hostess , and ono which every lady prefers to avoid.
