Gen. Sherman publicly stated that he con

1874, King was severely wounded at Sunset
pass, He was then only saved from falling
Inte the hands of the bloodthirsty savages
by the valorous devotion of one of his sol
diers. Fer months the intrepid commander was
laid up with a shattered saber arm. Al Al

Waoiiisgtes', Julr 13. Every thy I walk
down Connecticut avenue, the thorough
fare which most directly connects the fash
ionable quarter of the capital with the
business center, and every day I leek for a
certain open carriage; drawn by a net ever
stylish but light stepping span of hays. I
am rarely disappointed. Morning after
morning, between 10 and 11 o'clock, the
bays whisk by, affording ene n lucre
glimpse of the occupant of the victeria,
the loveliest woman in America. MM
Mattie Mitchell has beensoeften described
as America's handsomest woman that some
readers may be tired of the reiteration.
Tbcre is, besides, a dlffcrence of opinion
about her beauty.
A cabinet minister's wife a dowager
whose opinion usually gees n great way
said te me ene night Inst winter at a re
ception, "What, you adore Mattie Mitch
ell that dough faced glrlf" Anether
dame of high degree in a Ixix nt the epent
opposite the Mitchells' demurely remark
ed: "Se you think MaUlu Mitchell it sweet
woman. Se she Is, se she Is, and t-.e Is a
roll of fresh butter sweet." Ilut It w,u
noticeable, just the Mime, that at the
'reception nil cy, followed the perfect
figure In pure while, surmounted by (ha
perfect head of bronze, ami from room te
room ran the whisper, "'(.'hut's sha Miss
Mitchell."
At the opera all glasses wcre leveled to
ward the box In which sat the modest,
genial girl, chatting gayly between nets
with her mother and sister and Sir Julian
Paunccfote. A roll of fresh butter, a
dough face she may be, but she has tha
beauty which sets all tongues wagging, all
MATT I IS MITCHELL.
eyes gazing, for all that. And speaking of
Sir Julian Paunccfote reminds methat the
old courtier, who has seen something of
beautiful and charming women in his
time, Is very feud of Miss Mitchell. Ile
nnd Lady Paunccfote often drive with her
orgexxith hcrte thoepera. "Miss Mitch
ell," says the British minister, "Is tlie
most iienutlf id woman I ever saw." And
with this verdict I, os ene of her adorers,
am content. Sir Julian's honest praise
outweighs ull the flings of the dowagers.
But It was net se much of Miss Mitch
ell's lieauty that I set out te write. That
is a hackneyed though glorious subject. I
have never yet attempted te descilbe her
beauty I lack ceulldeuce In myself. My
peer vocabulary Is net equal te the task.
Cel. P. Douan.ef Devil's Lake and every
where, Is the only man I knew who could
de justice te the subject; and the colonel,
who sets himself up as Sir Antheny Abso
lute en womanly beauty, does iiotndmlre
Miss Mitchell, mero's Hie pity. The col
onel, I fear, lias lieconie narrow In his
vision w hile pretending te be comprehen
sive. "I have seen, and am ierseiially ac
quainted with, nil the pretty women In
this country wertli knowing," says Cel.
Denan. "Many of thesu famous Washing
ton beauties are se plain that they
wouldn't 1h! considered even comely in the
south." This statement discloses tlie col
onel's weakness. He has become Infnt not
ed with the beauty of Dixie. He has be
come se narrow in hisrauge that te him
there are no beautiful women except theso
w he were born south of the Ohie river.
Te his notion Miss Mattie Thompson,
daughter of ex-Cengiessman Phil Thomp
son, of Kentucky, Is the most beautiful
woman of Washington. Next te her he
places the Herbert sisters, (laughters of
CengrcHsmnti Herliert.uf Alabama. Kittie
Cheatham, the sprightly and taleutcd
nctrcKs new with the. Daly company in
Europe, Is another of the colonel's favor
ites. .Mattle Thompson Is a tall, dlvine
girl; the Herbert sisters are perfect madon maden
nas, and Kittle Cheatham, in addition te
being talented and the daughter of a dis
tinguished Tennessee family, is a beautiful
woman. Hut Mattie Mitchell reigns su
preme. She Is easily tlie queen of hcaiily at
the national capital.
As she rides down Connecticut aveiiue
this het morning we reflect that she has
ether charms than these of face, nnd llgure.
There Is nene of the indolence of the so
ciety woman alsiut her. She Is geed unt
il ted, happy, girlish and alert. Her rrlcnils
she recognizes afar and gleets with hearty,
buoyant air. Though sliu hits reigned new
live or six seasons, Ixith here anil in Eu
rope, she fs net blase, she never appears
tiled, stupid or iiiditfeielit. She does net
grew old. If anything she Is prettier new
than she was live jears age. She is heart
whole and heart-young. Still better, she
bes among her many accomplishments as
a musician, linguist and conversationalist
a geed deal of the practical and useful.
MIhn Mitchell Is a rure geed housekeeper,
u manager and a nurse.
As we see her rolling down Connecticut
avenue she appears tee dainty for thoughts
of roasts and vegetables, of medicines and
doctors, but she is en her way te market.
Te market she gees every morning, and
then te the druggist's and te tlie shops.
Mrs. Mitchell Is in loer health. At times
she Is helpless for weeks and mouths, and
then the cares of the household fall upon
her daughter. They fall upon worthy and
capable, even if deliciously white and round,
shoulders. A part of the tlme Miss Mattle
lias the help of her married sister, Mrs,
Handy, who is, almost as beautiful us
Mattie.
The .Mitchell household Is ene In which
love reigns. Secial success has net warped
any natures there. Here are lovely, much
courted daughters who have time te kiss
and wait upon their father and mother
(laughters who stay in sultry Washington,
where they can I mi of comfort te their
patents, while seaside and mountain re
sorts lire j earning for them and premising
them many triumphs. Net the least of
this physically perfect Muttie's charms Is
fie fact that she Is n sincere, unaffected,
w holeseme American girl.
Whv she bus net married is one of Hi"
little mjsterles which Washington gos-siK-rsleio

lie was almost if net quite as feud of
horses and equipages ns he was of Mattle
Mitchell, and knowing the young man's
weakness In this direction his shrewd Unde
Cliattleld was able te meet the emergency.
"It you will give up Mattie Mitchell," said
he, "I will buy you a tally-he and four."
Yeung Til) ler hesitated, sighed, and xvas
lest, lie chose the tally-he!
We shall have te forgive Mr. Tayler en
the score of youth and lnexier!cuce. Per
haps, moreover, he had a glimmering of
the truth that Miss Mitchell xvas lieyend
hi reach, nnd concluded he had better
take what he could get. Ne doubt Miss
Mitchell, If she thought seriously of the
mutter ene way or the ether, concluded It
was geed riddance. Ilut Tayler has turned

character nnd energy. His nt tempt te found

f;oed xveekly literary paper, America. Tny

force nnd originality, xvhe Is pretty sure te
make n stir In the world.
His geed sense, nnd flue discrimination,
If discredited by his alleged exchange of
Mattle Mitchell for n tally-he and four,
xvas finally established by his selection of

neighbor girls at Iuke Kerest, her father's

when she was ready te be married te the
handsome and talented young millionaire,
nnd all the fashionables were In attend
ance, xvhe did she have for bridesmaids
buta number of her girl friends, the neigh
bor girls whose fathers xvere clerks and
' bookkeepers?
A little story of sxvect Hose Farxvcll that

illustrate the womanliness and tlie vholo vhelo vhole
somo American character of theso of our
girls that hax'e been reared In luxury. Af
ter the marriage came preparations for the
bridal tour. The house was full of serv
ants and plenty of willing hands xvere
near, but the brlde insisted upon packing
her own trunks. "I want te knew just
xvhere everything Is," she said. When the

James xvas careful, for his mistress steed
by and suierliitended the leading. Then
the geed-by kisses were kissed, and te the
astonishment of all the bridu climbed upon
the Wilsen, seated herself eun trunk and
badu James drive te the station. "I am
going te see that these trunks are properly
checked," she said In explanation, "I lie men
ero se careless." And away te the station
anil her bridal tour she went amid the
tears and laughter of her friends and leln

girl could net have married a peer man in

Mr. Bellamy is deluged xx-ith invita

"I feci that I can de butter xveik for

rtnylsjdy en earth would lieliex'ti it un
less positive proof was offered, and se I
tell it net expecting te be IwUeved, but
wemenkind are new occupying their
minds very seriously en what is te be
worn this fall. There is always n reach
ing out for what the future holds that Is
just as fascinating te the feminine mind
aa the utmost pleasure of the present;
and se women, while crjfitcnt in the
beautiful confections of lace and rlbtsm,
of dainty silk nnd floating muslins, nnd
think no morn of them, knewlug them
te be all that is desirable, they de give
many wakeful hours of thought toward
FAU, BTLK8.
the new dresses they must have te xveai
en their return te texvn again after their
summer of pleasant rest, where they
work harder at tennis, rexvlng and ether
active employments than tlie jKxir work
ing girls whose condition calls forth se
much pity, only theirs is under less
healthy conditions.
The beautiful nexv gowns that will
take forms of grace He nexv in smooth
folds en the counters of the great im
porting houses, where I get a terrible
hcadache this week trying te du my duty
toward my dear readers. Stuff goeda
ero decidedly stuffy iu large quantltiea
in the summer iu xvarcroems that arc
kept closed ou account of moths; but I
saw such beautiful goods, and like the
rest of my sisters I am auxieuH for thu
cool days that will make them things of
delight and comfort.
The color is gray for this season, and
tlie varieties thure can be lu this ene
color is beyond the power of imagtua
tieu. First comes the soft pearl and sil
ver gray silk warp Henriettas, next thu
cashmeres and camel's hair, but par ex
cellence the nexv gray cheviot.
This is te be a feature in the fall trade,
and the effects achieved xvith black and
xvhite wool and ene sole fabric is some
thing almost marvelous. There is a
dark gray cheviot, almost black. Iho pat
tern being made by the peculiur weave,
which is zigzag, and it is he cunningly
woven that (here are a dozen lights and
BhadcH upon il, giving it the effect of 1h
ing woven in as many shades, whereon
laid flat you see but one. This goods is
made by the simple admixture of black
and xvhlte wool, nnd according as black
or xvhlte predominates the uliade is dark
or light.
The gray cheviets come in four weights
nnd thrceshades and are forty-four Inches
xvide, xvith three interiuediate shades in
twilled cheviets. This makei) six shades

Plain black cheviets and camel's linlr

for many Bcasens. Seme of them xvill be
braided very closely iu daik red, green
nnd lil no. Black camel's hair comes iu four
weights, forty-four inches xvide, and
makes elegant and durable, dresses, but
rather Ixitter suited te home wear than
the street, while the new gray choviels
are equally suited for both. A very
pretty light gray cheviot can be made

(lisphi)ed in abundance, but Usetemptliig
te the duvotee at the vegetarian diet altar
as te be isisltivcly fesOlimtliiK. And fruits,
cs'iccl.illy of the Is'rry. cherry and (eacli
families, are simply killing In mom ways
than one. Cherries us large ns ordinary
eastern plums are arranged lu regular lay
ers, with the biggest and best ou top, In
shallow, oblong boxes. Figs, apricots and
peaches atu displayed In endless quantities
and of the llucsl qualities.
IllmkUrrlei, red raspls-rrles mid cur

are net what euu xwnild uxtsxt them te Ihj

fruit shipping facilities aru such that there
Is no such thing as it glutted market.
What Is net required for home consump
tion Is either sent cast or else ex'elvcd Inte
hiiiisorcniitiederdtled for future distribu
tien, Consequently tlie growers nre al-4-
wuys sure of it market, and nt paying prices
for nil they can produce.
Hence fruit fanning Is ene of the most
certainly roinuneratlvc. "branches of Indus

and extends ever nu ever widening nrea,
Callferulaim have te pay about as much
for such delicacies ns de New Yorkers.
Fer this New Yorkers are net sorry.
The handling of the fruit crops here
forms an extensive and profitable employ
ment for armies of lnlxirers as xvell as mid
xllcmeu or manipulators.
Comparatively few grexvtrs put their
mvn product en the market. Much of It
is sold en the tree te shlpnrs and peckers,
who buy orchards ut a fixed price iktIkix
and gather the fruit tlietnseites. This Is
especially the case xxlth oranges. Then
when the f i nit Is picked thu culls rhletly

But one advantage home consumers b.tx
is t lie fart that xve get tlie fresher picked

$5,000 A PORTRAIT.
That I What America's Mint Famous
Verlrnlt rainier Uvts for Ills Werk.
ISpcs-'lal Oorresiieiiileiieo.)
New Yekk, July 17. A portrait paint
er who can pick tip t-sO.Otitl in four
months by the skillful wielding of his
brush might reasonably lie called suc
cessful, Te put it otherwise, Jehn Sar
gent might Is.) styled a successful artist.
Te put it iu still another form, ami as it
really is, Jehn Sargent is tUe most fa
mous American iKirtrnlt jKilrner.
Mr. Sargent is one of the few Ameri
can disciples' of portraiture dhe only
one, hu far ns I knew, who can com
mand tf.1,000 for n iilngle portrait. That
be can command theso remunerative
prices for his work, and that he has nu
treuble in getting all the work he wants,
is shown by the fact that, aa I intimated
abeve, he rnicketcd ifsSO.OOO ns the fruit
of a four months' jaunt ever te his na
tive country a couple of years or se age.
Ills reputation en this side of the water
is of the best, and he could coin money
xx'cre he te live here, but somehow
Mr. Sargent prefers Londen, nnd has
all but liccome an Englishman. He gen
erally runs ever here iu the summer,
paints a few fi.OOO isirtrnits iu order te
pay his traveling ex sinsnn, uud thou hies
lihnself Biltaiuward. He xvns ever here
iu Nexv Yerk en ene of bis (icriedlcnl
pilgrimages it f exv xvoeku age, and xvleldcd
his brush nt a dollar or se a stroke iu his
studio ou Txvonty-tliiriihtreet. I saxv
him one evuiiiug at nu artist's gathering.
He is net of particularlystrikingnpiiear
aucu, but the refinement of his manner
cannot fail tu impress' any ene win) meets
him.
In stature be Is neither tall nor short.
Apparently he has yet te pass te the
shady side of forty years. His full
brown Ward is fashionably trimmed,
and alsmt it and thu face there is some
thing that suggests the artist. The
fatuous artist does net go out iu society
a gloat deal ou this side of the water,
though he would lie welcomed every
where were he se dUHised. In Paris
and Louden he has the entree in the
most exclusive circh, and is a social
lien iu his quiet way.
Carelua Durnii, probably the greatest
living French portrait pniuler, xvas his
master, and there are net a few connois
seurs xvhe lielft that thu pupil has sur
passed the master. Duran and Sargent
continued their friendship xvhich urexv
out of their luweciiiliuun in ihe former's
studio for many years after the pupil
had branched out for himself, and the
Is-st portrait of the (front French master
extant xvns painted by the great Amer
ican master. Beinethlug caused trouble
between them, though, and they ure
net new en upcaking terms.
Sargent's work in heimi resjiects re
Bumbh'H that of the world famous Span
iard, Velasquez, and it is said that the in
fluence of Columbus' countryman is dis
tinctly traceable In the .1,0() works of
the unlive of tlie country which Colum
bus rescued from oblivion. Be that as
it may, Sargent has painted portraits of
some of the xvcallhieiit Americans, In
eluding the xvife of the Inte William 11.
Vaiulcrbilt, and the galleries of most of
the millionaire art pat runs of America
have sicclmeus of his work. Ouu of his
latest American xverks is the much
talked of iHirlrail of the sprightly Car
lucncitn of terpslchercan faine.

Aiiii'.nh, .lunii W. CI reek girls usually
marry when sixteen or wvuiiteeii if they
have a gtssl dowry, net otherwise, uulcriH
they hapiHin te lw nutisually beautiful,
and even then they are looked down en
by the condescending bridegrooms and
their families, xvhe de net allow them te
forget tlmt they xvere portienless. When
a Greek girl is of a inarriageable age
her brother, or cousin or father if she
lias no brother, gees te his closest friend
and says: "I have a little ulster te mar
ry, Her dower will lw se much iu money
or juwels."
The ether ncceptH if the stun is high
enough, but dues net-hesitate te hlggle
ever the iimallest matters like it pi rut e.
The dowry must lw of the incst tangible
sort. When this Li settled the brlile
gT(wm prospective in taken te seu thu
girl and they are formally betrothed.
The dexvry is paid te him the day of the
wedding ceremony, and ills female rcla
tivcM count ever every urticloef her very
under linen te make Hiiro that it is all
there. The flrcek girls have te marry tha
man chosen for them uiiqucstieningly,
I kunxv a beautiful young Greek girl
who was in sclnwl yet. Her father sent
nn old man te the school te see her, and
sliu xvas sent for te the parlor, whera
she made her most profound bexv, talked
a few xvenls iu French and English with
him und played her "star" piece ou the
piano, and thought she was showing off
for the Is'nefit of the school, when te
her dismay she discovered that slut xx-iw
te marry him. She had se small a dowry
Unit no young man xx-euld take her, and
se she xvas given te this horrible old
man for horrible he xvas. I knew her
a year after her marriage, xvhich xvas
one long torture.
Peer girls have a haul time te find
husbands, ami Hemelimcrt their families
xvill bind themselves te support biide
and gioem and any iwwsible increase for
a ccitain term of years in place of a
dowry, and the contract is strictly en
feirtsl. This is xvhy girl babies we se
coolly welcomed iu Eilreiw.
Gieek xvlvcs are mole like slaves te
their husbands Hum Turkish ones, and
in case of death ordixerco the dowry she
brings is net restored te her, but she
must take her chance with the ether
heirs. They are under thu control of
their brothers' or sous, even if xvidexved
and it is ram that they are allowed thu
control of their own money. Their broth
ers, fathers or husbands may U-at them,
and lu fact mnka their very lives bur
dens, though I think they usually treat
thcni mildly.
Armenian girls nre usually very pretty
but inune, and their parents liegiu te
Kive their dowry as seen as they me
bem, and this is handed ever te the
bridegroom the day before the wvdding,
wj that the imiiccunieuslirid-giiwinmay
buy a handsome piescnt for his bride.
