Presidents at Dinner.
The White House Stewart Describ
ing the Table Habits of Hayes,
Garfield and Arthur.
I had an interesting chat, writes a
Washington correspondent, with Mr.
Crump, steward of the White House
under Hayes and Garfield. Said he,
'The position of steward at the White
House pays SI,BOO a year, and it
was,under Hayes,a very nice position.
The steward has the full charge of the
White House. He is responsible for
everything. He must see about the
table, attend Ao the catering and keep
the servants and the house in order.
When Hayes and Garfield were at its
head the position was easier than now,
on account of the good hours they
kept. Eaeh of thenf had his last meal
over by 6 o'clock, or a little later, and
we got through dish-washing by 8, so
that the men could go away. Of
course, I refer to ordinary days when
there were no state dinners. Mr. Ar
thur has his dinner between 8 and 9
o'clock, and his friends ottcn sit at the
table until 12 and 1 o'clock.The hours
are all changed now.
"President Garfield was very plain
in his diet. He came into the White
House with dyspepsia, and he was
doctoring all the time up until he was
shot. He ate no rich food and was
particular about his hours. He had
breakfast at 8:30 in the morning,when
he would eat a good beefstake and
some baked potatoes with cream pour
ed over them. This was a favorite
dish of Garfield's,and it was one which
he ate when he could eat nothing else.
It is delicious, and far surpasses baked
potatoes and good butter. Then Gar
field was also fond of a little nice ba
con fried to a crisp, and this with a
few side dishes made up his breakfast.
Dinner he ate at 3. p. m„ and this
meal was much the same as his break
fast He always had his beefstake,
and neither he or Mrs. Garfield were
big eaters. About 7 o 'clock he had
tea, aud this was a very light meal
Also. There W*L generally some one
present to dine with the family, but
there was no wine at the White House
during the Garfield administration."
"Tell ns something about Hayes."
"During the administration of
.Hayes there was wine used at only
one dinner, and that was at the one
given to the Grand Dfcke Alexis. Dur
ng their family meals there was nev
er wine on the table nor was there
any at the state dinners. The Hayes
family were good livers, and they
were also great entertainers. During
the last three months of Haves' term
there was an average of thirty-seven
at each dinner, and he always had a
house full of guests."
"It costs a good deal to run the
White House, I can tell you, and Ar
thur will have to have a great many
things sent in by the neighbors if he
carries much of his salary away.
Hayes had a number of friends such
as Major McKinlev of Ohio and oth
ere, who had a standing invitation to
be present at his family dinner. He
never set the table for less than four
teen, and they were generally full.
So yon want to know what Hayes
ate r" continued Mr. Crump. "Well,
- his hours wore breakfast at 8 or half
past 8, lunch at 1, and dinner at 6*
He was a great lover of oatmeal and
grits, and we always had these on
the table as a part of the breakfast.
Then, we would have frnit in the sea
son, good steak or mutton chops,
buckwheat or corn cakes."
"Was Hayes-much of a candy cat
er r I asked.
"What?'' replied the steward; "why
sir, he had a sweeter tooth than any
ehild in America. All of the family
are very fond of candy,and we always
have it on the dinner-table. It was of
the assorted kinds,and it was eaten of
liberally. Mr. Hayes did not like pork
Hfe said he had eaten enough of it in
the army to do him a life-time. Mr.
Hayes was a pleasant man to work
for, add Mr 3; Hayes was one of the
kindest ladies that the White House
ever had. I keep a list of all the callers
r vtpon Mrs. Garfield,and some of those
who Sailed upon Mrs. Hayes. At one
of Mrs. Garfieid's receptions Guiteau
wps present."
'ls t-he position of steward a desira
ble one ?"
t J "Not very at this time. The work
is very hard. In addition to the ca
teriag and seeing that the house is
fcepf in order,the steward has to watch
the relic-hunters. It is outrageous
* how strangers will destroy the furni
ture. We often found the carpets cut
j after a big reception, and it was a
common thing to see a hole cut out of
a lace curtain. Sometimes the chairs
would be cut, and at one time a piec 3
large enough to make a cane was
broken out of a safa back. In the east
room, just under the mantle,there are
a number pf little carved, gilt knobs
which screw into the wood work, and
at one reception seventeen of them
were stolen."
SOU
A Fair View of It.
'Did you notice what a boor that
wan was who sat next to yon?' asked
"one lady of another as the pair stepped
off a woodward avenue car the other
day.
'How V
'Because; he refused to pass up the
fare for the liuly in the lavender satin.'
'Oh,well, you see,they were divorc
ed only two days ago, and it couldn't
be expected that he would recover his
composure this soon It is a mean
thing in any divorced woman to ex
pect her ex-husband to puss alimony
money up to the fare box.'
