Annik IflAttFX Wilms. Tho Fattier of O-rur Willi. (Special (VnrpoDdence.) r)NDON, Nov. 18. Lady Wilde, tho mother of tho erratic jtoet, was liorn In Dublin, where sho lived most of her lifo. nnd there showas married to Dr. William Witdo, a noted oculist, lie was ns odd and eccentric ns he was talented, nnd that is to say a good deal both ways. Ills studies nnd researches resulted In his making Romosuch important discoveries that ho was knighted in consequence, and from plain Airs, his wifo was hence forth Ijidy Wilde. Sir William Wilde was very absent minded, and, to say tho very least, care less of his toilet, lie absolutely would not tnku timo from his studies to keep himself respectable, and it was the hard est matter to get his hair combed, as it was slightly curly and long. Sometimes when Ijidy Wlldo would sco him ab sorbed in n book sho would pouneo upon him with brush nnd comb nnd jtolish him up a hit, but beforo nn hour he would look fully ns unkempt and neg lected as Itcforo. A clean shirt was laid cut for him every other day, nnd ho would usually put it on; hut if Lady Wildo did not watch him ho would put it on nbovo the ono ho already woro. Sometimes, it ia said upon good authority, Ito would bo found U liavo on six shirts, ono over tho other. Often ho had odd shoes on, nnd nothing could compel him to wear gloves. Friends had to keep tho strictest watch over him tho day ho was knight ed to keep him from doing something or other which would liavo perhaps caused him to bo sent away from tho presence of tho queen in disgrace, instead of a nohlomnn. Dr. WIIdo'8 ordinary dress consisted of a coat which was slimy nnd greasy from top to Itottom, with bulging pockets. A pair of trousers, baggy at the knees, and as dirty ns tho dirt could hold on them, nnd a hat that looked as distressed as Ida clothes. Ono day ho was called to London for a conference with somo of tho most noted oculists hi tho country, and thoy wailed Impatiently for his arrival. Ho reached the boost) with ono shoe and ono boot on, and with his old coat and pants, shocking had hat and unkempt hair, looked little like any of the London nnd Edinhurg doctors who had reached there beforo him. Ho knocked on tho door and the servant who opened it thought him a tramit or vagabond and otdered him to Ito oil. "Here," said the doctor, "I don't want any nonsense. 1 enme hero for n con sultation, nnd I advise you to open the door." The man half hesitated, and Sir Wil liam put his brawny shoulder to tho partly opened door and sent tho lackey reeling hack, and then the doctor walked in. The oor servant called for help, thinking that tho plato was in danger, when thn doctor took him hy the collar and said: uere, you spalpeen, bead mo to your mother's room, or by tho powers I'll cat you. l'm Wilde." IVjythls timo tho master canto out of hfoVtudy, attracted by tho noise, and ho, too, mado a mistake, and tiskcd what this meant. "I'm Wilde, nnd this spalpeen wouldn't le. mo in. You sent for mo to Dublin, and now your footman won't let mo In. Dy this timo thoothersnw his mistake, as ho had already heard something of tho doctor's untidy habits, and ho hast ened to nttologizo by saying that tho errant must be drunk and should be eat away directly.

Sho is now under tho doc tor's enre, and Is confined pretty rigidly to a diet of milk and stalo bread She says sho has appetito enough, hut tho cruel doctor will not give her permission to appeaso It in her own fashion, Tho trouhlo is n gitstrja ono, and can be to moved only by persistent caution as to diet. Tho president has n doctor, loo, hut does not often have occasion to send for him. Tls a curious fact that one call to tho Whlto House brought, or is in n fair way to bring, a fortune to a Washington physician. Since tho president mado Dr. Bowers his physician this young gentle man, nlready jKipularand successful, has found his practice quickly doubling. Ho is now the hardest worked man in tho city of Washington, his Whlto IIouso patient, probably, excepted. Dr. Sowers Is no morn than 85 years old, and his in come Is $25,000 a year. den, Harrison works like a hired man, and ho Is likely to kill Llgo Hal ford be fore his term is half out. Tho trouble is that the president goes to bed too early and getH up too early. Ilo is rarely up later than 10 In the ovening, and then ho wants to begin work at 8 in tliu morning. This habit doesn't nt all fit tho privato secretary, who, as a morning newspaper worker during ten or II f teen years, ac quired tho halilt of retiring a llttlo be fore other peoplo got up, and of sleeping till the forenoon is half gone. If tho president would work all night and eat his breakfast at 3 in tito afternoon, ns Mr. Arthur used to do, It would just suit Mr.'Ilnlford. The privato secretary Is ono of those rnro men, n Christian editor. Ho ha. carried his piety Into politics, too, nnd la ns fond of tho church and all that per tains to it as ho was when ait Indlauap oils editor. Nothing pleases him hettet than a chance to sit down and talk with a bright, sensible minister of the gospel. Such nn ono you may often sco In the big red leather chair that stands between Llgo's desk and tho door to tho presi dent's library. Mrs. Harrison is fond of tho church, too, but she has given up attending, and for n rather novel reason. It is not the condition of her health that deprives her of ono of the pleasures of her lifo, but her dread of being stared nt. It is nn actual fact that tho people gaze at her so much in church that sho can never tell whether tho minister Is preaching on foreign missions or infant baptism. So sho has resolved to stay at homo. She goes occasionally to tho theatre, which sho wouldn't do but for the protection from curious eyes afforded by tho cur tains of tho box, which she Invariably occupies. Mrs. Cleveland never objected to being stared nt; at least, she nover tried to get away from tho crowds. Sho had a way of smiling nt masses of peoplo as much as to say slio rcognized nnd sympathized with their curiosity. Besides, she was woman enough to take a llttlo delight out of tho consciousness that somo ad miration was mixed with tho curiosity liven tho receptions, out of which Mrs. Cleveland used to derivo so much pleasure, Mrs. Harrison is looking for ward to apprehensively. Mrs. Cleveland was fond of shopping in Washington. Everybody know her, nnd hundreds of oyes followed herpvery movement, but what did sho care? Mrs. Harrison, however, nover goes to the shops unless it is absolutely necessary, and sho prefers doing her shopping In Now York or Philadelphia, whoro her faco is not so well known. Tho first lady of tho Innd is ua scnsihlo and practical as sho over was. Tho glit ter of power has not mado her tho least bit dizzy. Even in shopping no false pride is allowed to govern her actions. She was in Rohr's Infants' outfitting es tablishment not long ago, buying n cap for ono of her grandchildren. The only thing in stock of the sort she wnnted Mrs. Rohr nsked $3 for, but Mrs. Har rison said that was more than sho careo to pay "Wo can make you up a very prettj cap at 2.50." said Mrs. Itohr. "No," replied Mrs. Harrison, "I hau thought $3 was enough for a cap, and I'll not pay any more." She didn't. Nino women out of ten would liavo been too proud, In Mrs. Har rison's placo, to decline to buy a baby's cap or any other nrticlo simply because a dollar stood in the way Mrs. Cleveland's closest friend in Washington was Mrs. Whitnoy, wifo of the secretary of tho navy. Mrs. Harri son's closest woman friend is Mrs. Clark son, wifo of tho first assistant postmastei general. A genuine earnest friendship has sprung up between theso genuine, earnest women, Mrs. Wnnumnker Is also n member of the llttlo coterie, ltoth Mrs. Harrison and Mrs. Clarkson are in lovo with tho wife of the postmaster gen eral, who has, in lite opinion of Mrs. Clarkson surely a competent judge tho Bweetest, most perfect homo in America. "It is rich hi all that money can buy," says Mts. Clarkson, "nnd richer in that which money cannot buy perfect lovo nnd peace and n hospital ity which lllls the heart." Thcso ladies of tho administration will ttave ample opitortunity to wonder dur ing tho coming winter why their hus bands over left their prosperous business es and pet feet homes for Mrs. Clarkson has a beautiful homo in Des Moines, la, to work for that hard, ungrateful task master, Undo Sam. The postmaster general and ills first assistant go to work nt 8 in tho morning. They nro busy with callers till 6, and unable to get nt tho ac cumulation of business on their desks. Often it is 8 or 0 In tho evening before they go homo to dinner, and Mr, Clark son would not quit often then If his wifo did not go after him and metaphor ically take him hy tho car and lead him to iho carriage. Speaking of tho president's physician reminds mo that tho daughter of tho late Dr. Ullss, tho famous old physician who was tho medical adviser of several presi dents, and whoso naiuo has been n house hold word In tho capital for forty years, is one of the rising physicians of the city. Sho Is n fair type of that largo class of brainy, earnest woinon who take up thn battle of lifo practically alone, but with unfailing courage. Dr, Clara nilss-IIinds is not only winning popu larity In Washington as a practising physician, hut is becoming famous throughout tho country ns an advocate of woman's life Insurnnconnd of tho sys tematic collection of statistics iteariilg upon tho birth, lifo nnd death of the human race. At tils death Dr. Ullss. after a long and very successful practice left little except an account book con. tabling $20,000 of unpaid hills. I have heard it said that Dr. Hltss prolonged the lives of ft greater number of public men Mian any other pliysiclnn of hii time. The Into S. 8. Cox used to say Dr Ullss had saved Ills lifo a half dozen times. A room nbout which sad memories cling is tho library of Mr. Cox in thn handsome home built by him in this city a few years ago. Mrs. Cox never goes into tho library when sho can help it, for that apartment reminds her of the many long evenings spent thero in her husband's company as his secretary and companion: for Mrs. Cox was ona of thoso women who helped their hus bands with every detail of their work. Mr. Cox'b library tablo stands just as ho left it. Not n paper or hook has been disturbed. Still It is tho nemo of order liness. Sam Cox, with all his brilliancy, was a man of method, of application, of toll. Not alone his wit, but his persist ency, his mastery of all tho subject! which canto to his band, won him suc cors. Cox was known as ono of tho best In formed men in tho houso. His knowl edge wns fairly encyclopedic. A hint ol tho method by which this reputation wiw won lies upon his library tablo. It Is an atlas so full of clippings from news papers and magazines that the ttook it swollen to thrice its original proportions At tho map of Nicaragua, for instance, aro fifty newspaper cuttings nltout thnl country, its politics, statesmen, nnny, navy and commerce. Bo with Chili, Brazil and all other countries, particti lnrly tho western nations, in turn. If Mr. Cox had not been a man of care ful method, not even Ids great industry would liavo enabled him to keep abreast of modern thought nnd literature, and nt tho some time to perform the prodig ious amount of laltor which fell upon him as n loprcscntatlvo, as one of tho leaders of his party in tho houso, and as tho friend and champion of many worthy Interests and measures. For soveral years ho devoted to tho letter carriers alono an amount of labor equal to all that performed by the average con gressman, and now tho grateful letter carriers nro to build him a monument. Of his habits of work Mrs. Cox said a day or two ngo: "When I camo to look over Mr. Cox's desk, 1 found no unfinished business. Everything was dono up lo tho day ol his death, excepting threo letters which ho ltnd promised towrito for friends who wcro seeking places in tho Now York" city government. For theso threo let ters I had addressed tho envelopes, as 1 wns in tho habit of doing for all his cor respondence, but ito was too sick to writo tho Inclosures." Mrs. Cox added: "Few peoplo know what a hard worker Mr. Cox was, nnd how much ho was ablo to accomplish. I onco asked him to sit down nnd mako mo'a memorandum of tho important legislation In which lie had borno a part, simply by way of rec ord of his lifo work. Ho replied: No, I cannot do that. Tho present Is too lively nnd the future too tremondou'i to bother with tho pasL' " Secretary Blalno was ono of tho guests at tho dedication of tho new Catholic university in the outskirts of tho city Among tho newspaper corresondents present was a young woman society re porter who has not been long in tho busi ness, though sho is ns bright as a new silver dollar. Fearing that sho might not bo ablo to get anything to eat till her return homo at night, she put up in a very small and very neat parcel ft slico of bread and meat, with ono piecoof chceso nnd two pickles for relishes. To her sur priso nnd delight sho was Invited to the dinner given the notable guests, and chanced to occupy a seat directly oppo site Secretary Blalno. But what to do witlt that luncheon! Tho absurdity of carrying a bread and meat lunch to n banquet so impressed tho young woman that sho laughed immoderately, and finally, becoming desperato, she tossed tho now obnoxious parcel under tho table at her feet. As tito dinner wnsconcludcd nnd the guests were rising, tho secretary of state hastened round to tito young woman's side. Smilingly ho held out to Iter a fragment of her own bread and meat and picklo, saying, with a mis chievous twinklo in his eyo: "Better put this in your pocket to eat on the way homo if you get hungry. I have tried tho bread, nnd it is very, very good. Who mado It?" Walteb Wellman. Tho Lead I'encll Sharpener. A ccntloman who admired litis won derful inventive faculty, and who, vlth all, was of a speculative turn of mind, once suggested that if, following tho ox ample of tho'tnan who first tipped lead pencils witlt india rubber erasers nnd thereby made a fortune, she could slml larly attach a pencil sharpener, a fortune might also bo made. Before tho conver sation was finished, this genius, with a bit of cardboard and n pair of scissors, had fashioned a scroll like contrivance not larger than hor little finger, nnd in a couplo of days a -vorker in metals had reproduced In steel the model of a sharp ener that Is now everywhere popular In tho stationer's stores.
