HEBREWS IN TRADE.
THEIR IMMENSE COMMERCIAL
FLUENCE RECOGNIZED.
IN-
Striking Evidences of Hebrew Projrress.
Growth or tho qjothlng Trade A Pro
fitable Undertaking Importation of
Diamonds Cigars and Tobacco.
Of all New York commercial exchanges the
Hebrews are now recognized as among the
most influential members. The vice-chairman
of the stock exchange, the treasurer of
the produce exchange and the treasurer of
tho metal exchange aro all Hebrews. In
these institutions, as well as the cotton and
petroleum exchanges, thoy are prominent as
directors, and they are also identified with
many of the great railway, steamship and in
surance companies. In banking alone the
New York Hebrews represent a capital of
$100,000,00). Tho prominent part taken by
them in tho negotiation of tho most impor
tant government loar and railway opera
tions is too well known to call for special
comment, their immense influence in this and
other leading cities being generally recog
nized. The most striking evidence of Hebrew
progress may bo witnessed on Broadway,
which, within tho past fifteen years, has
undergone a complete transformation by the
transfer of tho retail trade to tho uptown
thoroughfares and tho invasion by Hebrew
firms. Of the 400 buildings on Broadway
from Canal street to Union square tho occu
pants of almost all are Hebrews, over 1,000
wholesale firms out of a total of 1,200 being of
that persuasion. On the day of atonement,
when nearly all of these establishments are
drvnl. tho street for the length of nearly two
miles presents a holiday appearance. The
signs of Hebrew firms also predominate in the
streets contiguous to Broadway within tho
territory named, which is almost wholly de
voted to tho manufacture of clothing, cloaks,
hats and caps, laces, mbrolderies, millinery
goods, furs, undergarments, flowers and
feathers, shirts, dry goods and fancy goods
and kindred branches of trade.
Most remarkable has boon tho growth of
tho clothing trade, of which the Hebrews
control seven-eighths of the total, several
hundred firms being now engaged in the man
ufacture of such goods, and some houses em
ploying as high as 2,000 hands. Fifteen years
ago tho number engaged in this business was
insignificant compared with the presenUday,
when as many firms are found on a single
block as then existed in the entire city. An
important feature in tho clothing trade to
day is the mauufocturo of goods fully equal
to the best custom made, which some years
ago was considered impracticable to attempt.
Less than ten years back the manufacture
of cloaks in this country was upon a very
small scale, tho entire business in this city
being confined to less than ouo dozen firms
all told. The Hebrews wore not slow to rec
ognize tho importance of this industry. They
were onions the first to perceive that it was
destined to expand to an extent far beyond
its proportions at that time. They reasoned
that the growth of the country would
creato a continued demand ftr their goods,
and many plunged into the business, the re
sult being that there are now in this city
alono over 200 manufacturers in this branch,
almost all of whom ore Hebrews. Few peo
ple have for a moment considered the extent
of tho manufacture of woolen shirts, and yet
the annual transactions aggregate many
millions. In this branch the Hebrews have
secured a monopoly, it being estimated that
25,000 men and women are directly and in
directly employed by Hebrew firms alone.
The wealthiest concerns in tho trade, which
include several millionaires, were in moderate
circumstances when they embarked in the
business.
"When tho wholesale manufacture of under
garments was first suggested somo years since
the proposition was scouted. It was asserted
that good turned out by machinery would
neither wear well nor bo made to fit wolL
The men who conceived tho idea were laughed
at. Hebrews wore among tho first to enter
the business. They were convinced the under
taking would provo profitable, and were de
termined to succeed. Thoy did succeed.
Thoy aro now securely intrenched in the
business, ltcody made undergarments aro to
be found on salo in almost every city and
hamlet, and the Hebrews of New York en
gaged in their manufacture carry the names
of 10,000 employes on their pay rolls.
It is estimated that tho Hebrew capital en
gaged in tho importation, manufacture and
jobbing of diamonds, watches and jewelry in
this country will not fall short of $25,000,000.
Year after year they have been absorbing the
trade. It is predicted that before long the
absorption process will be exhausted for want
of material on which to feed. Of late years
an increased tendency to manufacture has
been noted. Of tho 400 jobbers in this city
the Hebrews constitute tho bulk, and such
headway have they been making that many
older firms have been swept out of existence,
including several who were a recognized
power in tho trade. Over 300,000 cases of
leaf tobacco ore dealt in in this country every
twelvomonth. Two-thirds of this amount is
controlled by the Hebrew merchants on Fear
and Water streets.
Equally surprising has been the growth of
the cigar trade, in which the Hebrews have
risen higher and higher until almost the en
tiro business has isassed under their control.
Borne idea of their operations may be formed
when it is stated that their production reaches
tho enormous figure of 600,000,000 cigars per
annum. Tho manufacture of this immense
stock Involves the employment of 8,000 hands.
Tho manufacture of hats and caps, the im
portation and manufacture of hides and
leather, furs, laces and embroideries, artificial
flowers and feathers, is largely controlled by
tho Hebrews, while the wine and liquor trade
is one of the most extensive in which they are
engaged. It is estimated that the Hebrew
capital represented on tho New York stock
exchange is not far from 0,000,000. The
holdings of real estate by the Hebrews of this
city is estimated at $100,000,000. New York

Story of a Magic Tcaclier.
"To a man like me, who has little ca
pacity for business," said a music teacher,
"it is almost disheartening to see people
of scarcely nny ability succeed while I
have to make every effort to keep body
and soul together. That energetic young
woman you met going out has twice as
many pupils as I have. She has been
studying exactly six months, and I in
struct her in the lesson in the morning
which she tenches her pupils in the after
noon. She says she is making a good
Jiving, but that she finds it liard work to
keep up with her pupils. Here is the case
of an incompetent teacher who owes, her
success solely to her capacity for business.
People help her along because she is so
persevering and so very anxious to make
a name for herself. She goes everywhere,
makes friends by the score, is ulways
ready to tender her services for charitable
entertainments and keeps her name con
stantly before the public She had been
taking lessons only a couple of months,
and was still practicing the scales, when
she told me she was down for a difficult
piece at a fashionable concert, I was as
tounded. She laughed, and said I was to
play the piece in one of the wings, and
that she would merely sit on the stage
and pretend to play on a dumb piano.
I felt that her proposition was an insult,
but she seemed so anxious to make a suc
cessful debut that I reluctantly consented
to the deception. She assured me that
this dummy play was quite common
among purse proud mammas with un
cultured daughters." New York Evening

The Hasty Reading Public,
The erudition our forefathers amassed
through the long process of laborious
days can now, for all practical purposes
and in all sufficient quantities, be ac
quired in even less than thirty lessons in
which an ingenious Frenchman (whose
name I regret to have forgotten) once pro
posed to teach poetry. The labor of a
lifetime has become the plaything of an
hoar. Young ladies will explain the
principles of Greek art or the intricacies
of scriptural chronology; young gentle
men wul popularize the profoundest dis
coveries of science or the divinest perad
ventures of philosophy; and all this shall
be done with a fluency- and precision that
sets my poor old fashioned brain whirl
ing. Do not think I am sneering at these
"young light hearted masters" of modern
wisdom. Far from it; my admiration
vies with my astonishment us I read.
Among such competitors, then, yon
propose to take your place. And bear
mis also m mind: Tne popular aisliRo for ,
anonymous writing (a wise dislike in
reason, but too often only idle curiosity
on one side and an ignoble vanity of the
other) makes an unknown writer's condi
tion much harder than it was. Formerly
he took his place (if he were lucky enough
to find it) among his elders and his bet
ters to be judged on the merits of his
work. But now the hasty public, who
devours its literature standing on one
leg, will not read an article to see if it be
good; they turn to the list of names to see
if there be anything worth wasting their
scanty leisure on. Macmillau's Maga

For lUnks and Slides.
Tho toboggan craze has made a demand for
a good deal of sawmill product. It does not
require as much stuff in the construction of a
slide as one might imagine about 7,000 feet
but tho great number of slides which have
gone up makes the aggregate large. It is
expected, too, that more slides will be built
next winter than were built this. The stuff
used is principally dimension and plank. The
demand for toboggan facilities has mado no
such draft on tho lumbermen as did tho skat
ing rink craze. To satisfy the latter, dimen
sion, boards, flooring, shingles, sash and doors
were required. The building of rinks also
gave a good deal of work to carpenters. The
cost of building a toboggan slido 40 feet high
and 175 feet long ought not to exceed f225 for
material and labor. Chicago Times.
Chinese Criminals la California.
About one-tenth of the criminals in the two
state prisons in California ore Chinese. But
these convicted felons bear no just proportion
to the crimes convicted by Mongolians; for
it must always bo borne in mind that tho
Chinese on the Pacific coast represent only
the lowest and mest reckless class. Nine
tenths of them are coolies or virtual slaves,
half starved from birth and driven by stress
of hunger to crime. These, swarming into
Canton and Hong Kong, came over to this
country when the gold rush began, and later,
when tho Pacific railroads demanded an army
of laborers, the coolies were gathered up by
the thousand and shipped across tho ocean.
They were natural adventurers, and it is not
strange that in tho newer land they robbed
and murdered as they had done at home

DYSPEPSIAS GRIP.
THE HOLD THE DISEASE HAS UPON
THE AVERAGE NEW YORKER.
A rhjralelaa Says Hasty Laacaes are the
Root of tbe Evil Wfcat the Hnagry
Gothamlte Tarawa lato His Stomach.
An Attack ef Laacb Hesse.
"Most people have an idea that the reason
why thcro is so much dyspepsia In Mew York
is because there k something the matter with
the air in tbe city or the Croton water, or the
climate or something like that," said an ex
perienced physician who was approached by
a reporter on the subject u There may be
something in all that The climate is pretty
trying for peoplo of weak constitutions, but
not more so than tbe climates of some other
countries where dyspepsia is as little known
as the ancient plague inhere. The real trouble
is that peoplo don't take time to eat, and eat
in the wrong way. Many a man thinks he is
dying with consumption or heart disease, or
Bright's disease, or something liko that, when
as a matter of fact nothing ails him except as
attack of lunch house."
"Lunch house?"
"Yes, sir, lunch house. Lunch houses make
more imaginary diseases than all other causes
together. Thousands of men think they have
malaria in their system and rush away to the
mountains or take a sea voyage, and fill their
bodies full of quinine it they can't do any
thing else, when all that aus them is tbe
lunch house. Lunch houses cause more of
what is called malaria in New York than all
tho bad sewage, bad as that la I don't be
lieve there is any more malaria around now
than there was thirty years ago, when there
wasnt an intelligently constructed sewer In
tbe United States. If people would only have
as much sense about eating as they had then
there wouldn't be any complaint about ma
laria or dyspepsia either.
"To show yon what I mean, go Into any of
tbe big lunch houses down town about noon,
and what do you seel There is a long coun
ter on each side of the room, and in front of
each counter, perched onstools in uncomfort
able, stoop shouldered positions, crowded in
together like herrings in a box, is a long line
of men. They eat no, gorge is a better word
m fast as they can.
"And what is it that they throw into their
stomachs? Pork and beans, clams, oyster
pies, beef a la mode, fried potatoes, fried
ham and eggs, fried hash, fried cakes grease,
spice, pepper and indigestible meat On that
they pile hot mince pk with a crust like sole
leather and pour over the whole maaacup of
scalding coffee strong enough to raise the
dead. Then thoy just stop long enough to
light a cigar, which will paralyzo the action
of the stomach on all this stuff, and bolt back
to business with a load under their shirt
fronts liko lead. The healthiest man in the
world couldn't stand that sortof a strain very
long, if it were combined, as it always is in a
big city like New York, with confinement in
a close rootnnd very likely a stooping posi
tion over a desk."
bThat'8all true enough, but where does the
malaria come inr
"Now, just wait a minute; Pen coming to
that presently. The liver b tbe first organ in
tbe body that gives out under the terrific
strain. It gets tired and refuses to db its
work. Pretty soon the man feels lassitude
and a queer pain in his joints. Then he has
headaches and fevers, and gets so he doeant
care a rap whotber he lives or dies. He puts
out his tongue one day before a looking glass,
and it is apparently coated half an inch
thick with yellow f una. That settles it Ho
is perfectly sure he has got malaria. Like as
not he gets his plumber to go all over tho
bouse and roll up a ruinous bill looking for
sewer gass. Very likely be wants to sell tho
place and move out to Ringwood, or live in a
balloon, while be keeps his bead ringing for a
month at a time with quinine. Then he be
gins to read up on bis symptoms in health
books, and pretty soon be is certain that his
heart i3 affected, or his liver is being con
sumed, or there are Indubitable evidences of
paresis about him. The chances are. If he
isn't rescued and token out of the terrible in
fluences of that lunch bouse be will get to be
a nypocnonanac ana neaitn crana oi we
most intolerable sort, and will go around
drinking hot water and reading lectures to
his friends on the advantages of salt packs and
steaming foot baths and liver pads. He will
get more crazy notions about hours of getting
up and going to bed and sucn tilings tuan you
can count in a week, and he will lead bis
family a life that will make them think of
suicide with satisfaction. About that time
the lunch house Is having its perfect work.
"Tho whole fashion of midday eating in
New York ought to be reformed. If men will
persist in making their business hours so long
that thoy have to interrupt them to eat, they
should take at least an hour to it They
should go to some quiet resort and sit down
at a table like Christians, with some friends,
with whom they can chat and talk. Then let
them eat a very light lunch a small chop,
say, with a piece of dry bread or something of
that sort, giving themselves plenty of tuno to
masticate and going away a trifle hungry. A
piece of dry bread and an apple, or xweibach
and a bunch of grapes is the best kind of a
lunch for dyspeptics. Let them abjure all
mado dishes, grease, gravy, pio and spice, and
drink nothing but light wines or water, and
there wont be any malaria to speak of In this
climate. But if the present state of things
goes on much longer tbe next generation will
not only be a race of dyspeptics we're that
already but a race of thin chested, round
shouldered, nervous, irascible and weak
livered cranks.
"Of course the lunch bouse keepers are not
to blame. They have to offer what they can
sell. No doubt they would rather set forth
food that people can digest If they bad any
choice in the matter. It's tbe bad taste of
their customers that makes tbe trouble."

BLIND TOM'S WONDERFUL GIFT.
Boiling- oa the Floor la an Ecstasy of
Fleasnre Phenomenal Musical Talent.
Since the recent action of the courts in
taking Blind Tom from the custody of
Mr. Bethune, bis former life long friend,
manager and protector, has brought him
so prominently before the public in the
newspapers, a few facts concerning his
childhood by one who knew him then
may not prove uninteresting. Ho was
born near the city of Columbus, in Mus
cogee county, Ga., of slave parents, the
property of Gen. James N. Bethune, at
that time editor and proprietor of a news
paper called Tbe Corner Stone, but in ex
actly what year I do not know, as he was
somo 6 or 8 years, or it may be a little
older, when I first met him in 1855.
My first meeting with him was in this
wise: I had just married a few months pre
viously, and one of Gen. Bethune's daugh
ters had been one of our bridesmaids. On
our return from a northern tour we were
invited to dine at Gen. Bethune's. Dur
ing the day music was proposed, and
upon the piano and flute my wife and I
played a tune which we had heard for the
first time at one of the theatres in Phila
delphia. At the first sound of the music
Tom came rushing into the parlor in a
single garment, so common among the
little niggers in the south, and while the
music was going on he fell down upon the
floor, rolled over, turned somersaults,
clapped his hands, groaned and went
through divers motions, really more as if
he were in pain than experiencing emo
tions of pleasure. As soon, however, as
tho last note was played he sprang up,
rushed to my wife and, pushing at her,
cried out eagerly:
"Miss Fannie" he knew her well
"please git away; I wants ter play dat
tune!"
And jumping upon the piano stool he
played It off perfectly, although I know
he had never heard it until that moment,
for it had only been recently published
and had not yet come south. To test him,
then others played tunes ha had never
heard and he would immediately play
them off with both hands, Just as he
ha heard them. He seems to have lost all
sounds, whether musical or harsh. He
loved to do the churning for the family,
just to hear the monotonous sounds of the
dasher in the cream. He has even been
known to pinch and otherwise tease babies
just to hear them cry.
One habit of his seems to savoragooa
deal of romance, yet it is true. Being
blind, he would stay away from home,
listening to the songs of birds as they
flitted from tree to tree till he would get
lost in the woods, unable to And bis way
back. Upon such occasions the most
practicable way to find him would be for
Mr. John Bethune, bis. flrst manager, to
go one m the woods ana play his ante,
when Tom would hear it, come to the
sound, and thus get back home.
Although idiotic, he was even at that
early age endowed with a wonderful mem
ory. After spending the day at Oen.
Bethune's, as related above, it was over
sis years before I saw him again. The
war was going on, and one day on taking
a train I unexpectedly found John Bcthune
with Tom on the train. I addressed Mr.
Bethune and then Tom, not dreaming
that he would recognize me, when, to my
infinite surprise, he said:
"How d'ye, Mr. Sharp; how's Miss
Fannie?"
To which I said: "Why, Tom, how do
you know mo so well?"
He replied: "Oh, I knows you, en Miss
Fannie, too; don't you know when you
was at our house and played dis tune?"
and he whistled the very tune mentioned
above.
On that trip I discovered how the ab
sence of sight had rendered all his others
more acute, for as wo dashed along at
perhaps thirty miles an hour he could
always tell whether we were passing
woods or open fields, houses, cuts, em
bankments, bridges, or almost anything
else. I remember we entered a small vil
lage on the railroad, when I asked Tom
what was outside, to which he promptly
replied: "A heap of houses." Augusta

When Crime Was Rampant.
In 1770 there were 1G0 capital offenses
in the statute book, and before the end of
the century the number hnd greatly in
creased. To steal five shillings' worth of
goods from a shop was punishable by
death. A girl of 22 was hanged for re
ceiving a piece of woolen stuff from the
man who had stolen it In 1785 ninety
six persons were lianged at the Old Bailey.
In 1769 a womnn was burned at the' stake
for coining. Still, in spite of .this enor
mous severity of punishment, crime was
rampant. Daring burglaries, accom
panied by every circumstance of violence,
took place in London every night High
waymen infested the suburban roads, and
not seldom plied their calling in the capi
tal itself.

Tbe Bacillus of Scarlet Fever.
Drs. W. Allnu Jamicson and M. Alex
ander Edington, of Edinburgh, announce
In the last British Medical Journal the
iiscoveryof a specific bacillus of scarlet
fever. The micro-organism has been is
olated, cultivated and put through its
paces generally, coming out, apparently,
with a specific character.
"Tho rapidity of the growth of this or
ganism which Is eueh that, if one inocu
late a flask of broth, the diameter of
which is two and one-half inches, and it
be incubated, the pellicle will develop and
cover it entirely over in the course of four
hours suggests an explanation of the
very short period of incubation in scarlet
fover."
Dr. Edington, who carried out the
bacteriological part of the work, lias fail
ed to show that pure inoculations of culti
vated bacilli cause scarlatina in man; also,
that the supposed specific bacillus Is not
found in other diseases. Medical Record.
Winter Drinks Don't ray.
When the hot weather disappears it
takes with It the druggist's revenue from
drinks. Winter drinks don't pay. The
druggists last winter tried several hot
drinks, such as hot soda and beef tea, but
the most of them will sell nothing but
vichy this year. The experiment was a
failure. Women don't drink hot drinks
in drug stores, und when a man wants a
drink in winter, whether it's a glass of
whisky or beef tea, he goes to a saloon.
The druggists will be satisfied, after the
cold weather begins, if then fountains
pay the cost of keeping them in order.

PARABLES.

In boldest speech.
Yet heights sublime which spirits shall attala
She cannot reach.
Aerial whispers float o'er land and see,

Her royal purples and her crowns of gold,
Her white attire.
The sceptred lilies which her summers hold.
With flames afire,
All fail to show the glory we shall see,

Who from unsightly bulb or slender root
Could guess aright.
The glory of the flower, the fern, the fruit.
In summer's height?
Through tremulous shadows voices call to me,
"It doth not yet appear what we shall be."

Through shadows dart.

THE SON OF A LORD.
YOUNG ENGLISHMAN IS TAKEN
SOMEWHAT BY SURPRISE.
A Society Miss Takes the Ceaeelt Oat ef
a Tonne; Briton ef Noble BloodSee
lag the United States eei the "Two
Day" riaa.
The mention of Florida recalls tbe experi
enco of some young Englishmen who camo to
Washington for two days on their way to
that land of oranges and alligators and who
stayed here two months. They got into offi
cial society and found it so attractivo that
they could not got away. One young Briton,
apparently not many years abovo 21, and the
sou of a "real lord," but traveling as modest
Mr. , wont out to mako calls last week.
Tbe daughter of a well known hostess had
several young women assisting her, and with
these he proved a voluble and unflagging
talker. Finally , to givo him variety and re
lievo one of the assistants, tho hostess said to
a calVr:
"Do let mo introduoo that young man over
there. I want to got Lliss A. uv.uy from him,
and bo shows no -signs of giving up."
The introduction was made, bows were
exchanged and the roil of a "real lord" was
left with tho oiher wouiuu.
"And what aro you doing in Washington, if
I may ask tho quostioiif' were tho first words
of the young man, as ho gave ouo sweeping
inclusive glance, from her tall bonnet -down
to tho h:u of her gown.
"Oh, I am doing what most other women
are doing making calls," she replied, with
a flash of quickuesi, and showing no sur
prise at tho unexpected and abrupt question.
HE WAS SET BACK.
The surprise wus on tho other side, and for
an instant ho was set b:iek by her readiness.
"Ah oh don't you know that's really very
good," he said, laughing, and recovering
himself.
"And what are you doing in Washington,
if I may ask tho question f sho added tho
next moment, and cv:!S ''Im a second start.
"Ah oh really, vou Americans aro very
quick, don't you know," ho answered, a triflo
subdued, and in rather more a tons of
respectful deference. " I will toll you. Wo
have just coma across to look about a little.
Spent two days iu Now York, you know.
Ran on here for two days, and well really,
there Is a good deal in your towns, you know.
Quito a lot to see."
"Two days in Now York and two In Wash
ington I Is it possible, Mr. , there are two
whole days of sightseeing In either city for
an Englishman! Oh, I understand. Ton have
just run over to get thoroughly acquainted
with us, and will then ruu home to England
and write a book about America. Of course
this accounts for your long stay in New York
and two whole days at our capital 1 But I'm
so glad you find a lot to see."
"Ah oh really now. You can't mean to
be so hard on a fellow. I should nevab, you
know, give my impressions without really
knowing America. I was just going to say
that really, after two days here, your capital
is so very charming we couldn't get away.
Really wo couldn't. And wo went down to
the booking office and the fellows fixed it all
right with the tickets. Now, instead of two
days, we've really been iu Washington seven
woeks. It's a fact I wouldn't believe it my
self if I didn't know it, you see. Sdven
weeks! But we really, you know, must get
olf to Florida next week. Sorry: Washing
ton is very delightful; peoplo charming, you
know."
MUST GO WEST.
"And, of course, you go to Chicago. No
book on America is complete without Chi
cago, tho big city oi the west. Oh, you must
go west," sho iii'L lie was rising rapidly in
her estimation, and she was a littio sorry she
had been sarcastic. Tho next minute down
be went again, as ho said:
"Ah oh yes. I havo heard of Chicago,
you know. Quito a town, of course. But
really. Miss , I can't fancy how you dis
covered I thought of writing a book. Now,
really, you know. Do I look like it Uow
did you happen on thatr
"Oh, you all do it. You come over on the
two day plan of seeing the country. And
you' vo all heard of Chicago. So you go home
and write about us, when you really don't
know anything about America or Americans,
after all," she said, squarely and frankly.
She had como up in his estimation as fast as
he had gone down in hers. He was taken by
her offhand manner of talking and quick
understanding. He was about to conclude
his call, and as he turned to go ho said seri
ously and wholly without his former con
ceited air:
"I will tell you what we do know, and wo
are not slow in learning it, you know,
cither"
"I'm so glad you really know something
about us, if it's ever so little, sho put in,
laughing.
"We learn, as soon as we meet American
women, that they are the best talkers in the
world. Now, Miss , I promise you, if 1
write my impression, I will go to Chicago and
to all tho rest of your western cities. Good
by. We're off to Florida to-morrow."

THE BIG MEAT BILLS
Of Senator Evarts, Pierre Lorillard and
James Gordon Bennett, Jr.
I met a fat, jolly looking Irishman in
tho office of a friend of mine the other
day, who Impressed mo strongly with his
heartiness. After he had gone out 1
asked my friend who he was.
"You will probably be surprised," re
turned my friend, "but that man is well
known to some of the most prominent
men in New York, and has had very inti
mate dealings with them. Among these
may be mentioned Pierre Lorillard, James
Gordon Bennett, Senator Evans, ana i
don't know how many others; enough,
anyhow, to put him on speaking terms
with three-quarters of the men whose
names are familiar to everbody."
Something in the tone of his voice and
in the rather amused smile that accom
panied it made me push my Inquiries fur
ther. The man who was supposed to
know everybody worth knowing had not
the distinguished air usually worn by
such personages. I was not, therefore, so
much surprised as I would otherwise
have been when I learned that he was
Kelly the butcher. The rest of his name
was said to be immaterial; but not to
know Kelly the butcher was, I was as
sured, to argue one's self unknown. For
years he and his father before him kept a
butcher shop at University place Jsnd
Thirteenth street. Here were cut the
juicy chops and the tender steaks, and
from here were sent the delicate fowl and
game that havo tickled the palates and
pleased and satisfied the stomachs of a
generation of the wealthy and prominent
of New York's citizens. Catering to the
stomachs of these patricians, Kelly learn
ed certain interesting characteristics of
each, and some of these he Imparted to
my friend, also his pntron, who in turn
related them to me.
Senator Evarts, according to his meat
man, is very particular as to tho flesh he
eats. Although his face looks like a
piece of parchment, and has no more
color in it, yet he indulges in rare steaks
and roast beef, meats that contain the
most blood. He is very particular about
them also. His cook selects the meat ten
days in advance of the time it la wanted
to- the table, and has it cut off in his
.sence. Then Kelly puts it into his Ice
b, where it remains until it is sent to
the senator.
Pierre lorillard is one of Kelly's best
patrons, and one who has stuck to him
since ho moved up town. His bill for
meat alone when he is at his town resi
dence sometimes reaches $700 a month
and averages f 500. It would be impos
sible for any family to spend that amount
for meat even with a house full of guests,
but Lorillard, like Bennett, is a high
liver, and alms to secure delicacies for bis
guests that make a visit at his house a
much coveted privilege. His orders are
such, sometimes, that it is necessary to
spoil large quantities of meat or fowl to
get at the particular part he desires.
Thus, for instance, when he orders ten
pounds of chicken breast, a great many
chickens would have to be cut up to sup
ply that amount. He would, of course,
be charged just as much as though he
had ordered that number of chickens. It
is very profitable for the butcher, un
doubtedly, inasmuch aa he tan sell those
parts of the chickens that have not been
used and in that way get double pay for
the same article. When it comes to
orders of a like nature m regard to mors
expensive game, as canvasbacK. ducks,
gronee and so forth, the orders amount
to large sums. Lorillard is a hard cus
tomer to suit, though, for while he does
not grumble at the bills, he wants what
he orders ou the moment and will not take
any excuses.
Bennett ia probably the most extrava
gant of all. Be has not been in New York
: for some years now, but there is no reason
to believe that he has grown any more
economical since he went abroad, even
though bis newspaper has lost so much in
circulation. His household was run on
the most extravagant scale In every re
spect. He paid a man in one of the oyster
saloons to remain up all night in readiness
to prepare oysters for him at any time be
might desire .them. His orders to his
butchers exceeded in extravagance those
of ell the other nabobs, and $1,000 a
month went into the coffers of Kelly, the
butcher, from this source alone. His
servants lived on the fat of tho land, for
his orders for supplies were on such a
grand scale that a large portion of tho
food brought into the house had to bo
thrown away daily. While his futhcr,
who mado the fortune his son attempted
to but could not dissipate, lived tho serv
ants were held in some sort of check, but
even then they hod a pleasant time of it.
Every morning this order came down for
the old man's breakfast, toast and tea.
These slices oi. toast, stamped In artistic
shapos, nnd a pot of tea would be sent up
to him, while the servants below dined on
porterhouse steak, lamb chops, broiled
chicken and other choice viands. Wash

Our Chinese Immigrants.
Our Chinese immigrants arc mainly
from the province of Hwantung, and are
usually country people, with here and
there a shopkeeper or artisan from the
cities, of which Canton is the chief. They
vary somewhat in speech and manner,
those of the Sam Tup approximating
nearly those of Canton, while those of the
Sz Tup, who are most numerous, nre most
provincial, and Bpeakinsc a patois almost
as incomprehensible to their countrymen
as to the "Melicau" man. They keep fast
hold on the traditions of their country,
and strive to maintain its customs under
the most adverse conditions, chief among
which to their own anxious, yet often pit
iful, avarice.
It is in the cities among the colonies,
many of whose members know no foreign
word, that these customs nre most closely
followed. Iu shop and Luiudry thoy burn
