He is a strict Baptist, and has given two million dollars to the Chicago quietlyxinNeiv York City, a most unas~ suming man. . Mr. Rockefeller's family is very musi— cal, and there is a home quartet. con- sisting of father. mother and daughters. and four stringed instruments. and the work of Brahms, Chopin and Saints Saens are interpreted by them in a man- ner that would be creditable to many symphony clubs. Cornelius Vanderbilt is probably the thriftiest of the sons of William H., anl hasactually more money than he knows what to do with. His magnificent house facing Central Park is eagerly sought by almost every visitor to this city. His daughter, Gertrude is. after Miss Rockefeller, the greatest heiress in the country. In spite of the newspaper stories about her wonderful beauty, she is really a plain looking girl. but she has been educated abroad and has an unde- finable charm. This perhaps comes from her comnup sense as much as any- thing else. . The Vanderbilt money as inherited. and the system bearing the name. is sup- posed to be worth nearly three hundred millions. of which this favored son owns a third. While he is somewhat of a so ciety man, he does not care for that kind of life, except for the pleasure it gives his family. He finds most pleasure in the quiet of hislibrary. He wants to be left severely alone. He enjoys particu- , Iarly a month's walk in the Swiss Tyrol ova vacation in the wilderness of'~ the Norwegian forests. While he is a subscriber to all the 80-- _ cial gayeties at Newport, Trouvillc and ; other resorts, he does it more for the social position of his children than for l himself. The wealth of Cornelius Vanderbilt is ,estimutcd by those who know him in- timately as eighty millions. While he apparently realizes the responsibility of the control of this vast sum of money, . he knows, too, that its possession carries l with it the possibility of great good, and , his quiet charities and real kindness of heart are known to thousands of peo- ple. 3 g i The Breakers, the gorgeous cottage he 30ccupies at Newport, is as handsome a 1 country place as can be found anywhere. . It is a veritable palace. Mr. Vanderbilt and his family generally spent a few months of the year abroad. " Explorer Stanley. 1/. .. What a picturesquely tb'fl'uous career has been that of Henry M. Stanley, who has just succeeded in breaking into Par- liament as the member from Larnbeth. As a boy an inmate of a charity in- stitution. and then a cabin boy; a sailor; ‘ a soldier; a Confederate and thenaUn; i ionist in the war of the Rebellion; a newspaper reporter of a very or ry type; a foreign correspondent who has 1 made his mark in spite of ridicule, con- itempt and arraignment as a falsifier; a great African explorer; the finder of Liv- ingstone; an explorer again with an army ‘at command in the service of the king ‘ of the Belgians: an anthorof successful ' books of autobiography, travel and ad— venture; a lycenm lecturer at a thou- , sand dollars a night; a British citizen , becoming a bencdict when past middle life; as a candidate for membership in l the House of Commons booted and rot- ,ttan egged and his wife insulted on the bustings: and now winning the ambi- tion of his later life in obtaining a seat in Parliament, hanging fast to the skirt of Lord Salisbury's robes. The story of his life is a romance, in- deed. His fame iI,world wide. and can ‘ never be taken away from him; but there are those who to their dying day will declare that he was a faking news» paper man, a slave driver Worse than 3 the slave owners. whom he fought and subdued, a tyrant whose path to success 'lay over the dead bodies of thousands of poor Africans ruthlessly slain, a man without a cemeteries and with a marble heart.

He has lived them long enough, Any sympathy for the wandering, disease and vermin in- fested creature who has lived on the pro ducersof this country for the past 80 years, himself refusing to work, is wasted. He must go, and go at once. It is not unusual for the widows and families of deceased citizens to issue a card in the newspapers thanking friends for the sympathy manifested at the time of the death and funeral of the dear de- parted. But what does this card from Mrs. John G. Bolder, in the Jackson Sun, mean? “I desire to return thanks to all those who so kindly assisted in the death of my band. ” It is a high compliment to the gov~ eminent of the Hawaiian republic that even England has acknowledged the justice, with one partial exception, of its sentences against British subjects who were engaged in the late farcical attempt to put poor old Queen Lil back upon the throne and prop her up there. Brockinridge declares that he never said he was permanently out of politics. He does not need to do so. His constit- uents have said so for him. WINTER FABRICS. To Keep Away “'rinkler—Crepon and Mo- hair Still Worn. The following mipo is said to bo effica- cious against wrinkles: Take equal parts of bean and barley mm! and mix with raw egg. When the mass is thoroughly hard and dry, it should be ground too fine powder and made into an olntmcnt with melted tallownnd honey. A thick layer of this is applied to the face every day. Combinations of color will be grimly worn during the autumn and curly win- tcr. Bouclc and other gmxls in which two or three tints are interwoven will be fash- ionable in both dark and light effects. Bulge, brown, dark blue, plum, dark green and black will all be in vogue. Crepons oontlnuoto be fashionable, both of silk, wool and the two nmterinls mixed. The rough, dull surface of the solid wool crcpons renders thcm extreme" servicea- ble and keeps thcm from showing spots, dust, etc, as do smoother goods.

Silks and volvcts bid fair tobo no loss sumptuous this year than they wore last winter. Striped silks, both moire and OLACE SILK GOWN. changeable, will be worn, the striped ground being often overlaid with apat- tcrn of Louis Sclso knots, foliage, flowers and similar designs.
