Alexander Sul tiran, of Chicago, is well known in Washington, where he sometimes ap pears en business connected with Irish affairs or his law practice. Sullivan is n remarkable man. About 40 years old, he has a face smooth and bright likctliat of a boy. Ills cye is very keen, and pos pes esses the quality when fixed upon ene of making obvious the mnn's ferce of character and wonderful strength of purpose. He is always calm and well poised, and even in the hent of a court trial or of a llcrce struggle In Irish con ventions or secret society was never known te leso the coot and almost cruel . equanimity which is his prcdeminint outward trait He has n striking gift , for diplomacy and intrigue, and in his time has played a most important part in the Irish agitation, which assuredly Is the most rcmarkable thing of its sort in tliis century, possessing, as it does, mero pertinacity and continuity of purpose, and' unfortunately seme of the bleed- i thirstincss as vv ell as the 6elf sacrificing ' spirit of the Anarchistic movement In Russia, Fer several years Sullivan Ins been the head and front of Irish ngita- l tien in America. It is well known that he haa been the brain or Idea im pelling power of nearly all the recent activities In that direction in this country. As president cf the ' Irish National Lenguoef America he was clese te Parnell, ami is personally known te all the great agitators en the ether side of the water. Mr, Sullivan lesigncd the presidency of the National league te take part in the presidential campaign of 1831, being it strong ndmiiir .and warm friend of Mr. Ulalue. He toel: the ground that he hid no light te par ticipate in a Klitical campaign while acting as president of an organization which embraced men of nil part les. Per haps ills friendship for Ulalue arose In the fact that he was born in Mr. 1)1, line's ' state of Maine, He was nlse n friend of ; Herace Greeley's, and left the ltepub lican party te buppert thoOreeley move- I ment in 1872. Befere that he had i stumped the stitoef Michigan for the constitutional nmondmentgivingnegroes the right of 8ulTrngc, and was an nctive Abolitionist. Asa lawyer he stands high in Chicago, nnd as rv man and citircn is well respected, though by many thought dangerously zealous In the Irish c ruse and somewhat prene te carry his paints at all hazards. Whatever troubles his connection with Irish agitation may lend him into, the fact will remain that he is a strong, a rcmarkable man, ene u he In the romantic era would have ruled the statoer overturned a dynasty. Net less remai kable than Sullivan him self U Ids m ife, MargircL Shoisuwe- man of bread culture, nnd ene of the most brilliant w i iters in America. Her hush ind 1 earns eight or ten thousand dellais a 3 car 1 as a lawyer, and this is supplemented by his vv ife's inceme from her pen, bunly as much mere. In the field of art or ' literary criticism che is the foremost 1 writer in Chicago or the weft, nnd for some time has written the foreign nnd many ether editorials in two or (line leading papers of Chicago. Her word pictures of the national contentions of ISSt and 18S3 attracted nltintien the country ever, nnd she used her wonder- lly fncile pen en the inauguration of dent Harrison nnd thowelcemo te rlllaine in New Yeik harbor. She avt3 itf 1 1 n t litAl inlili 1 1 r I itml .aiuI . let oe, travel in Great Hrltain nnd Hu- rope, and tlicnce she has i,eut aeiiin 10- markable letters. She is new in Paris writing cable let ters te the New Yerk Associated Press, and seme of her descriptions liave be be be ceme the theme for iinmmcrnble editori als en both 6ielcs the Atlantic Some years age she intcrviewed Gladstone and described his home life in 11 manner which ninde her 11.11110 known vvlmuver the English l.ingu ige is spoken Though a woman of icfiucil feelings nnd dclicate manners, shu h is n licit! for practical affairs us geed as that of her hiibhaml. Alexander Sullivan net or takes an im portant step without first consulting his wife. She is u cry bit as much diplo mat as he, and Secretary Ulalue ouee said if she wcre a man he would llke te send her as minister te ene of the capi tals of Europe, That a woman can keep 11 secret no longer needs exemplification, since wo men la wy era, physicians, journalists and politicians nre play ing se important a part In modern nctiv i ties with mouths closed us tightly as theso of their brethren, but if demonstration wcre needed it could be found in the case of Mrs. Sullivan. When Patrick Egnn dis covered the in formation which led te the expese A. M. SULMVA& of the forger and perjurer Pigotthent once consulted Mr. Sullivan. In 11 few days four ersens, and only four, knew that Pigott was standing exer a volcano whose ciuptien would Iks heard around the world. These four were Sullivan, Egan, a Chicago Catholie piiest, wlie arri1 a packet te Painellin Londen, aneTWrs. Sullivan. After the priest Ind sailed from New Yeik, with the precious packet containing the evidence strapped te Ids body, ene oilier jiersen was in trusted w itli the secret nils one, Ben janiin Harrison by name, kept it w ell, but no better than did the woman, for during four weeks net a soul but these five en this side the Atlantic, nnd net mere than half a dozen en the ether bide, knew aught of the impending sensation. Eight or ten years age Mrs. Sullivan was a teacher in the public schools of Chicago. A fellow teacher, 11 principal of the school, was baid te have made eme uncomplimentary remarks ntxiui Mrs. Sullivan. These remarks reaching her ears, she called uien her husband fet vindication With his w ife Mr. Sulliv an called at the home of the principal, where the parties te thu dispute met upon the town. Seme words followed, and thin Wows, resulting a few seconds later in the sheeting and killing of the principal by Sullivan. Frem the preminence ei the parties this ailair created a bensatieu scarcely second In interest te the Cremn case, and the trial was closely followed by nil the eeple of the city. Mr. Sulh van was acquitted en the ground of sell defense, Mr. nnd Mrs. Sulhvnn hate no children, und ure much denoted te each ether. Women are, after all, pretty geed keepers of secrets, as everybody knows, though net everybody will admit it. There is Miss Sanger, the president's fa vorite stenographer, whom lie brought from Indianapolis. Today she is prob ably in posscssten of a greater numbet yt state eecreU (hau any ether person Ic &jte, V-?j- iJP1' rvasmngten, the president and ene 01 two members of his cabinet excepted. She guards them carefully. In this con nection n very geed story can be told. It is of a bright nnd handsome young news paper man, w he, happening te meet Mist Singer in n social wny, concluded II would be n clever idea te cultivate hci acquaintance. He invited licr te ride, took her te the summer opera nnd paid her gallant and winseme attention for sevcral weeks, hut was finally forced tc rctlre with a confession of defeat. Net n word about the president's business, 01 even about his methods or dally life, did she ever permit te pass her lips. TI10 newspaper mm failed In Ills en tcrprlse, hut his respect for the fall stenographer has in no w ise diminished. A large number of publie officials in Washington employ young women sten ographers and confidential secretaries, nnd their testimony is that the women keep secrets as well ns the young men, if net n little better. Willi crhnps twe or three exceptions the iiicmlfcrs of the cabinet habitually conllde their sccretatc their wives, and de se In safety. Nearly every publie man has hit j double, nnd many notowerthy ceses el men looking like ether men liave Ik.ch pointed out in this city.

Oiioeven Oiieeven Ing last week I met near the Nermandic a gentleman whom I had no hesitation in accosting ns "Mr. Secretary."

I am net Mr. Illalne, though I cannot walk out of an evening without being mis taken for him thrce or four times." When asked for his name the man de clined te giv oil, say Ing tint he was net thirsting for notoriety. An evening or two later, shortly after dusk, I was pass ing the old Seu aril house. Standing near the front deer, looking nt the nitratiens which the weikmrn have been making in the famous (true ture, was ils future mastir. Hut en being accosted thu m in again turned nnd said he wns net Mr. Illalne, though often taken for him. "This Is theBCC onilllniejou liave made this mistake," he ndili d, "and 1 am getting n little Hied of it, can't you see?' Hut his mild piotetatious te the centiary uetwith standing, nil the indications nre that the gentleman in question likes te be hailed en the street ns the secretary of stale, and that hu purposely walks near the Nornniulleor the old bewnrd heuse te uld in the deception. If he is net proud of looking HkeMr. Illiilne he ought te be. Speaking of doubles, there In one man mero or less of n publie character who has iideublu in Washington that is hkuly te get him in trouble. I speak of Itussill Harrison. A certain young Washing Ionian, n business man, unmarried ami rather inchuiled te enjoy life in n lapld, unconventional wny, Is an animated image of the prcstih nt's lusty son lik him in face, llguie, m inner of walk and speech, even te complexion ami color of eyes. Of ceurse this young man isal icnily well known among li is acquaint ances as "I'lince Itussell," and bevcrnl nmtising stories nre told of his adven tines and pranks. One of these con cctns an official of the government who is very rniefulef his leputathm, an be comes .1 man who has the president's conlidcnce te a ceitain degree. One icecnlevciiliig this etlluiil drove out te the terminus of Seventh street, where, just oiitsiile of the city, nil the Ieel ami gambling rooms nre new located, diiven thither by President Clet el mil. It is an odd cticuuistaiice, though hardly lelevnut te the btery, tint this net ei President Cleve) mil's in driving the bjierls te the euthkhts put much money 111 the pockets of the litter.

We slowly picked etn way through the mud of the only street of which Sknkizubewka boasted until we leached the home of the btarshy na, or chief inagistrate of the il lage. Arriving at the deer my friend without ceremony entered. The bight which met our eyes was, te me at least, c uliar The table, w hich occupied the cntu e length of the 1 oem, w as burreunded by pcrbens of both sexes mid various degrcesef lokatienship. Father, mother, brothers, bisterb, sons in-law, diughtcit. in-law nnd grandchildren were crowded into this 0110 apartment. At ene end of the table was sent ed the head of the family, by name Iv an Stepanev itcli Stepnetr. a" lai ge, pew erfully built man of perhaps 05 years. On being told who I was he aeknewl edged my presence in the gravest pos sible manner, nt the same time eying me suspiciously. I was quite prepared for the treatment 1 received, knowing full well the peas ant's antipathy te the nobility. Te ua they justly nttribute their past nnd pies cnt misery, for in connection with their affairs ours hasevcr been the hand of the oppressor. As tnue p ued en, however, and my visits wcre repeated, I had the satisfaction of knew ing that my presence was net altogether unwelceme in the little home. I found in Ivan StepnefT a much mero intelligent man than I ex pected, and ene extremely well versed in the literature of liU country. It was during ene of my U,ts te the starshy na that I learned of a peculiar decision ren dered bythemir. or village commune.

This prevxd nn unfortunate nifair and called for the interference of the inlr. Alcxandrevltch was small nnd slender and rather dclicate, while Mlchaclevitch was tail und powerfully built. Ixve re ceived no consideration in the decision of the mlr, hut te the brother strongest and best nble te puppert a wife was lhe maiden given. Marfa, oer girl, had no say in the matter, hut I knew her heart yearned for the delicate, gcntle Alcxan Alcxan deovltch. Se thekrasny sarafan, or red petticoat, was tx'gun nmid the tears and lamenta tiens of the peer girl, who pltceusly lieggcd that the preparations might be delayed as long ns possible. The krasny sarafan is considered nn important ar ticle of dress In lhe treus3cau of every eas.aut bride, ns it is the last gift from mother te child nnd nn emblem of her nppreaching wifehood. The day np np ieluted for the wedding dawned bright and clear. Yet, while nil without van Jey nnd gladness, in ene little home Berrow reigned supreme, for Marfa.

The bride, accompanied by the swntka, her pi rents, iclatives nnd friends, next ap peared, nnd a triumphal march te the church was begun. About twenty dresklcs, driven troika f.iAhien, fellow oil the party. The horses wcre decked with bright colored ribbons, and, with theirdrivers dressed in holiday nttire, presented 11 picturesque mid pleas ing npctrnlice.

The ladies who bathe at Newport and Nnrr.igansctt, ep well ns Leng Branch, feel themselves lifted above and beyond criticism, while the religious tenden cies of the majority of the Ocean Orove nnd Asbury l'nrk summer visitors lift tlieui nbove criticism, no matter what they de, se that it elovelvcs upon the simple, plain, honest folks te maintain the proprieties. It is se well understood that the bene ficial iuilucnce of sen bathing is se great ns te make even n few baths felt ns a po tent health factor, that almost every wo man whose circumstances lift her nbove actual vvnnt has her bathing costume. In this letter nre presented n few neat and genteel bathing suits, nil feasible for the home dress maker. The materials generally employed are dark blue flan nel or serge, though lately it has been found that Turkish-toweling or linen bed ticking are preferable, as they de net held the water se nercling se closely te the figure. Gcd ticking is really ex cellent, and has the advantage of being cheap and pretty, particularly for chil dren, though they should net be allowed te remain In the wet garments, as they chill mero rapidly than in ll.iuncl. Dark blue is the commonest color, trimmed w ith white, black or reJ braid, or bauds put en iu fanciful fashion, according te tnste. The very fact of the cestume being for bathing ought te be the reason for quiet taste, as theweaicr is sufllciently conspicuous without trying te make her self moie se by stiirthng sty lea iu dress The illustrations te this article show the best sty les for papa and niamiua, the baby and young sister theso for the parents in blue ll.iunel, w ith vv hlte braid, and theso for the sister and little ene in tnaioeu serge, 'lhe vvnyi is of gray toweling, with scarlet cords. The dark blue costume needs eight y arils of llan nel and eighteen yards of braiel and fifty -eight buttons, nnd requiiosne pat tern, as nny lady can make se simple n garment. The wrap nceils eight y aids of toweling nbeut twenty-3ix inches wide. Though It Is net absolutely necessary te wear stockings and shoes it is better todeso, ns tlieslnip shells nud pebbles may cut the feet; hut in Newpert and nATiu:a vvnvr ane mv.n's suit ether fashionable resorts it is censideied the mark of rvspcct.ibihty te wear silk stockings nud inncy shoes.

American Dairyman says: Dairymen are in the habit of tisingtoe much butter color. vVhile the fact is that pure vv hite butter will net sell, at the sailie time tee deep a red is sure te injure the price.

Heaid's Dairyman, commenting en the nbeve, says: Glad te see that the head of the old Ameiicau Dauyinan is level en the morals of coloring butter. It is a sound view te take that the higher grades of butter nre colored artificially lesi nud less, for the reason that the gos pel of geed feeeling and breeding is being mero nnd mero practiced, und this ne cessitates less artiileia! coloring.
