Hf Although there is .1 great show anil
Kl any amount of "social position" ami
Br/ • • rank" in Washington , there is not an
Hi equal amount of wealth to support it in
H } | two-thirds of the cases. The majority
of those who shine in society and are
Bj tho most prominent and irrepressible
H are dependent on Government salaries ,
j and it takes close management to make
I them suilice for plain living and a place
Hi in society. Many of the Senators are
El Y wealthy ; but they are the only ones , as
Kl a class , who have great wealth ; and
Hi the moneyed people , as the r < ch winter
! residents who come only as private cil-
Kf izens are called , are easily counted.
K Each season Washington runs over
J with heiresses , and penniless girls , and
j widows who come to Washington as to
Bp a great matrimonial market , and wear
| themselves half out in the struggle to
K | get into and keep 111 society. Rich men
WJ never come to hunt for wives in this
Uh modern Smithlield , and when a New
n | York millionaire did take a Washing-
Bn ton br.do it was a pretty gril in strait-
11 ened circumstances , who had never
\ been known in the society army and
navy germans and legation balls.
1 Young army and naval ollicers arc the
\ most mercinary lot of all , and they in-
W j variably' save up their leaves of ab-
{ ' sence tx > spend them in Washington
n during tho winter months. One mis-
' • * creaia in epaulets once horrified some
I * married ladies by saying : "It pays us
I poor fellows on short commons to pass

FAVOKED BY FORTUNE.
"People IVIio Znrcat Small Amounts
and Secure Large Returns.
San Francisco Call , Jan. 10.
Scnrcely a month passes but what the
papers are called upon to record what might
be termed the luck of some Californian in
acquiring large sums by means of small in
vestments. It is an old saying that , "noth
ing risked nothing gained , " and the practi
cal application or this time-honored maxim
to cvery-day life is a sufficient explanation
of the so-called "luck" of many busi
ness men. For several years past tho
daily papers have periodically contained
items , detailing the manner in which well-
know n residents of this city and state have
won prizes in The Louisiana State Lottery.
Tlie drawings of this admirably managed
institution occur every month , and with
the same regularity as tho rotation u ?
months tho announcements are made of
people who have risked a trifle and won
large sums , frequently a fortune. The last
drawing occurred on December 14th last ,
and as usual a resident of San Fran
cisco won a tenth part of the capi.
tal prize of § 150,000. The fortunate
holder of a coupon of ticket No.
9.1,174 , which won that prize , was
Nat. M. Raphael , tho well-known jeweler ,
at 732 Market street in this city. To a re
porter the gentleman said : * T have been
Inlying a few coupon tickets every month
for the past seven or eight years. In the
last drawing I hold a coupon which was a
tenth of tho ticket No. 1)3,174. and on the
day following tlie drawing when I read in
the telegraph columns of the morning Call
that one of tho numbers I held had drawn
the capital prize I was almost dazed with
surprise. I could hardly convince myself
that I had at last become one of the fortu
nate ones or whom I had so often read.
However , I finally realized that I was
actually entitled to the money , so I imme
diately went to the London and San Fran
cisco bank and deposited my ticket for col
lection. Eleven days later I received the
full amount of § 15,000 in cold coin. "
Another lucky man was Fred. R. Brown ,
a shoemaker , living on Ritch street. To a
reporter he stated that ho had very fre
quently bought coupons in the Louisiana
State Lottery , but had never won a dollar.
He had almost given up in despair , when
he bought one-tenth of ticket No. 92,507
which drew one-tenth of the third capital
prize of § 20,000. During the holiday week
he received the money , and ho rejoiced
that ho had persisted in his efforts until
success came to him.

INJUSTICE CORRECTED.
Convincing V rlHeatlon of Wldecaat
Public Statement * .
To tho renders of this paper : In coni-
mo .i with many publishers and editors , wo
have been acciiBtomed to look upon certain
statements which we have seen in our col
umns as merely adroit advertising.
Consequently wc feol justified in taking
tho liberty of printing a few points from a
private letter recently received from ono of
our largest patrons , as a sort or confession
of faith to our readers. Wo quote :
"Wo have convinced ourselves that br
telling what we know to bo true , we have
produced at last a permanent conviction
in the public mind. Seven years ago we
stated what tho national disease of this
country 'was , and that it was rapidly
increasing. Three j'ears ago wo stated
that a marked check had been given it.
"The statistics of one of tho largest lifo
insurance companies of this country shows
that in 1883 and 1S84 , tho mortality
from kidney disorders did not increase
over the previous years ; other companies
stated tho eamo thing. It is not presump
tions for us to claim credit for checking
these ravages.
"Seven years ago we stated that thecon
dition of tho kidneys was tho key to the
condition of health ; within the past fivo
years all careful life insurance companies
have conceded the truth or this statement ,
for , whereas , ton years ago , chemical analy-
bis to determine the condition of tho kid
neys was not required , to-day millions of
dollars in risks arc refused , because chem
ical examination discovers unsuspected
diseases of tho kidneys.
"Seven years ago wo stated that tho rav-
agen of Bright's Disease were insignificant
compared with other unsuspected dis
orders of tho kidneys of many misleading
names ; that ninety-three per cent , of
human ailments arc attributable to de
ranged kidneys , which fills the blood with
uric acid , or kidney poison , which causes
these many fatal diseases.
"The uric acid , or kidney poison , is thi ?
real cause of tho majority of cases or paral
ysis , apoplexy , heart disease , convulsions ,
pneumonia , consumption , and insanity ;
over half the victims of consumption aro
first the victims of diseased kidneys.
"When the recent death of an honored
ex-oflieial of tho United States was an
nounced , his physician said that although
he was suffering from Bright's Disease , that
was not tho cause or death. He was not
frank enough to admit that the apoplexy
which overtook him in his bed , was the
fatal effect or the kidney poison in tho
blood , which had eaten away the substance
of the arteries and brain ; nor was Logan's
physician honest enough to state that his
fatal rheumatism was caused by kidney
acid in tho blood.
"If tho doctors would state in official re
ports the original cause of death , tho peo
ple of this country would be alarmed , yea ,
nearly panic stricken , at the fearful mor
tality from kidney disorders. "
Tho writers of the above letter give these
facts to the public simply to justify tho
claims that they have made , that "if the
kidneys and liver are kept in a healthy
condition by the use of Warner's safe cure ,
which hundreds of thousands have proved
to be a specific , when all other remedies
failed , and that has received tho endorse
ment of tho highest medical talent in Eu
rope , Australasia and America , many a
life would be prolonged and the happiness
of the people preserved. It is successful
with so many different diseases because it ,
and it alone , can remove the uric acid
from the blood through tho kidneys. "
Our readers aro familiar with the prep
aration named.
Commendation thereof has often ap
peared in our columns.
Wc believe it to be one of the beat , if not
the best ever manufactured. We know the
proprietors aro men of character and in
llucnce.
We are certain they have awakened a
wide-spread interest in the public mind con
cerning the importance of the kidneys. We
believe with them that they are the key to
health , and that for their restoration from
disease and maintenance in health , there is
nothing equal to this great remedy.
Tho proprietors say they "do not glory
in this universal prevalence of disease , but
having started out with the purpose of
spreading the merits of Warner's safe cure
before the world , because it cured our sen
ior proprietor , who was given up by doc
tors as incurable , we feel it our duty to
state the facts and leave the public to ite
own inferences. We point to our claims ,
and to their public and universal verifica
tion with pride , and if tho public does not
believe what wc say , we tell them to ask
their friends and neighbors what they think
about our preparations. "
As stated above , we most cordially com
mend the perusal of this correspondence by
our readers , believing that in so doing , wa
are fulfilling a simple public obligation.
