A mile can ho soon tlio busy town from whicli tho takes its naiuo, while on cither sido stretching further house are a large number of curios of the FifteenthT Sixteenth and Sev-entieth centuries, which were collected by Mrs. Hoarst during a recent tour in Eur.ipe. One of these, an antique Dutch cabinet, has furnished the inspiration for the dining hall, which is finished in the style of the Dutch renaissance, the deep-ly colored old oak woods harmonizing with the cabinet. Tho ceiling is of openwork beams crossing so as to form square panels, the interstices and the walls being covered with stamped leather. Tho dining table io handsomely carved, and at its full ca-pacity is twenty-si- x feet long. The re-ception room is as light as the dining room is dark. The walls are covered with blue silk broeatel and the finuti-ing- n are in silver in the style of Maria Antoinette. An exquisite design in plastic work covers the ceiling, while the windows are draped with lace curtains which cost ?400 a pair.- - The drawing room adjoining is somewhat similar, though done in pink and gold. But the feature of the house is the great ball room on the north side aud occupying fully one-hal- f of tho first floor. It is a magnificent apartment with deco-rations in the Byznntine style and fitted in olive, gold and light brown. Beauti-ful and costly tapestries cover the upper walls, and the soft filtration of light through the east windows high in the walls lends a charm altogether elusive and indescribable. One piece of the tapestry displayed in this room, measur-ing only three feet by five, took the first prize at the recent Paris exposition and cost $8,500. It represents a group of Cupids around a fire and the tint are exquisite. six feet in diumeter. One of these Is a 1 sulphur spring, the waters of which are considered valuable for medicinal pur-poses. Almost everybody who has visited Washington recently knows the band-som- e residence of Representative John Griffon Carlisle, of Kentucky, because for tho last six years during which he was speaker of the house of representa-tives it was the center of congressional sreis! life. It is situated cn the most fashionable part of K street. It has no florid ornamentation, either externally or internally, but displays an air of quiet elegance and refinement. Its front is of dull red enlivened by white stone trim-mings, and a bay projection extends throngh the entire throe stories to the mansard roof. The honso stands back from the street in a little strip of green yard. On the left of the entrance hall, which is reached by a flight of stone 3teps, is the reception room, which, divided half way by banging portieres.-c- x tends through the entire depth of the house. The alcove formed by the bay window is usually filled with plants and palms on Tues-days, when Mrs. Carlisle receives guests. The furnishings are all in exquisite taste. Turkish rugs cover tho floor, and piles of soft cushions afford the most tempting and luxurious of lounges. Mr. Carlisle is very fond of a quiet game of cards with a few intimate friends, and on these occasions the back part of the reception room is used. Mrs. Carlisle, a lady of rare intelligence and sagacity, is auita good judge of pictures, and the walls of the house are ornamented with some ex-quisite specimens. Mr. Carlisle had a very pleasant home in Covington, Ky., until recently, but, the greater part of his time being spent in Washington, he con-cluded to sell tliatand retrido permanently SENATOR HEARST'S PAIJICE. For the entertainment of guests there is a large supper room in the basement finished in California red wood, the sena-tor's favorite material. It has a fine mosaio floor and an oaken mantel filled with mosaic tiles. The other rooms of the house, thirty-fiv- e in number, are of the s&iae nature as those described, and are replete with evidence of good taste and neatness. Hkhry E. Eland. at the national capita. The residence of ileuator Daniel W. Voorhees, of Terre Haute, Ind,, the "Tall Sycamore of the Wabash," is a pretty, three story brick at 1000 N street. It i not a large house, for since the death of Mrs. Voorhees the senator's family consists of only himself and daughter. The principal feature of its external appearance is that all the win-dows and doorways are arched, and the keystones and corner pieces are blocks of white sandstone which stand out with groat boldness from the red brick front Inside the house is comfortably furnish-ed, the library, whero the senator spends most of his time, being an ' especially pleasant room. Mr. Voorhees is one of the late investors in Washington real estate, having purchased this house about a year ago. ' Ono of the most recent additions to tho list of handsome dwellings in Wash-ington is the residence of fkmator George Hearst, of San Francisco. It occupies the triangle caused by the intersection of New Hampshire avenue and Twentieth street, and was finished in time to bo opened with a musicalo ' on the evening of the It is built of pressed brick finished with white stone, and ranks high among the largest and finest houses in the city. With tho interior furnishings, the hotise is said to have cost a round half million of dollars. Tho front entrance is on New Hampshire avenue, and, is approached through a handsome stone porch with two rounded arches iti tho Moorish style of archi-tecture. SENATOR REAGAN'S RBSIDB.S'CE. than the eye can reach, are the cattie stocked plains. In the rear stands the mountain itself, clothed In a tattered of sweet smelling pines and furment lovelier spot for a home would be hard to find. Mr. Reagan purchased the land at the close of the civil war. At that time the place was entirely un-improved. The senator chose it on ac-count of its picturesque surroundings. He built the house pictured here, placed a part of the farm of 800 acres under cultivation, Btocked the rest with Texas ' cattle and Angora goats and then went to congress. Since, he has continued to add to the improvements of his home, until now he possesses one of tho pret-tiest farms in the state. A portion of the estate, 240 acres in extent, covered with valuable timber, has been fenced off as a park. ' A little creek winds in and out among the trees, and here and there the senator Joas thrown across it rustic bridges. The house is nearly square and a pecu-liar fact about it is thnt every one of the ,ten rooms it (contains has three win-dows. On the front is a large square with a gallery above. Long wide n;h,extend through the entire length f the house on both the upper and . lower floors. The upper hall terminates in a gallery at the back similar to the one in front. The senator's sleeping apartment is the one on the corner of the ground floor to tho left of the front en-trance, while Ilia office aud library are immediately opposite across the hall. The Hat roof is tinned and palisaded and was the favorite playground of the senator's children before they grew up. From it a magnificent view of the sur-rounding country can be obtained. The bouse is beautifully shadod with cedars, burdocks and paper mulberrys. On the left is a small flower garden, of which the senator is very fond. But he is par-ticularly proud of his orchard, over which he watches with great caro, prun-ing here and grafting there. Nothing pleases him better than to exercise his skill in the latter branch of the nursery-iira'- s art. WHERK SENATOR VOORHEES LIVES. Elaborate carvings in the stone great ly enhance the beauty of this entrance. They are placed where they give an ef-fect of richness without being obtrusive. If the exterior is handsome the interior approaches the realization of a poetic dream. Architect and furnishers alike were given carte blanche, and they pro-duced a beautiful interior. By the taste-ful selection and disposition of tapestries, colors, tints, woods aud designs each room has been endowed with an individ-uality of its own. Nowhere is thoro an overabundance of decoration, but a re-fined neatness pervades and harmonizes the whole. Scattered throughout the ... THK I10MK OF J. G. CARLISJJ?.

Not a Large Man, But Full of Muscle and Very Quick r-- A Challenge For Currie. me HE illustration shows John E. f Mcl'hcrson, the great shot putter, as he stands ready to perforin his favorite game, lie is not an unusually mus-cled man.' but he is very .strong, jllis weight is 5 feet 11 inches ami his weight as - the picture' shows him is 175 pounds. Ho has just issued a challenge u put with any man in tho world different weight shots. There is little probability that any one outside of Currie will take up the challenge, and it is generally under-stood that McPhcrson intends his bold defl especially, for his big rival. ' McPherson is without doubt the most wonderful man in the world at putting the shot for his weight. George It. Gray, the amateur, is considered a,phenomenon, but he weighs a little' more than McPherson and is not so good' MePherson hus been attracting a great deal of attention lately on account of his great ability 4 ld ni8 comparatively small size. He is ..othing hut sinew from head to foot, and his mo-tions when delivering the shot are very quick. McPherson, being both quick and strong, combines qualities that many can never hope to have, and his style at the game is perfection. JOHN D. M'PHEBSON. His position in the picture is assumed just previous to taking a hop. A 7 foot 6 Inch run is allowed in putting the shot and McPherson starts with his right foot ngainst one of the lines. Amateurs are al-lowed only a 7 foot run. McPherson in de-livering the shot raises his left foot sudden-ly and hops forward with his right, laud-ing with his left foot at the other line and his right foot about in the middle of the two lines, which leaves his feet about 3 feet 6 inches apart. He lands, on that hop, in just about the attitude that the picture shows him, except that his shoulders may be a little further down. With a violent movement of his waist and right leg he raises his whole body, turns his right shoulder around at tho same time and shoots his right arm out. The jumping movement with his legs is followed by their exchanging positions, for in throw-ing his right side around he lands with his right foot to the mark, his left foot back and his right side forward. He follows the shot as far as possible with his arm with-out getting too much of an overbalance and falling over the mHrk. All of thee motions are done simultaneously and ha goes through them so evenly and rapidly that ono can hardly realize that he is doing so many things at once. McPherson made a trial with different weights of shots, and although most of them were lighter than t hey were thought nt first to be, as found by a test after wards, the performances arethe best that have yet been done so far as actual merit in shot putting is concerned. His 50 feet i inch performance with the 12 pound shot is the best, professional record in the world, aDd his 40 feet 11' inches with tho 20 pound shot is also the best in tho world. These are his two greatest records, but he has come within a shade of the best records in all weights from 13 up to 24 pounds, and it is universally considered that Carrie is the only man in the world who can give him a competition. Malcolm V. Fobd. A RAPID RUNNER. Luther Carey, a Princeton Man, Who It Coming to the Front. ' LUTHER CARET. Unless all signs fail Luther Carey, a stu-dent at Princeton college, will startle the athletic world with some wonderful per-formances on the cinder path. Carey al-ready holds the world's record in the 100 yards dash, which he won at the western championship games held in Detroit in June, 1889. His time was 10 seconds. Since then he has been doing remarkably well in the East. At the annual championship games of the Amateur Athletic Union held iu Boston recently he won the 75 yard dash in 7 4--5 seconds, which comes within a mighty small fraction of a second of touching the record. The ravortto Drink of Old England. In his annual financial statement to the house of commons recently Mr. Geschen, chancellor of the exchequer of Great Britain, stated that the revenues of the kingdom had exceeded the estimates by more than 3,000,000. Here is an extract from his remarks: The consumption of alcohol in the past year, as compared with the prnviuua year, accounted for an increase in toe revenue of no less than 1,800.030. This placed on the government and on parliament an increasing obligat ion to deal with the question uf the consumption of alco-holic drink. (;Choer.) Of all the beverages in the world, that which showed the greatest in-crease of consumption during the year was rum. Of thU liquor, which was principally consumed in seaport and fishing ports In half quartern or gill drama, It waa calculated that 946,000,000 of drama were consumed in 1SHS, and that that amount was increased by 80,000,000 drama In the paat year. And as there was also an increase in the consumption of wine, and an Increase of 4 per cent, in the consumption of beer, it was evident that an increase of prosperity still meant an In-crease in the consumption of aloohol. A Keuulted Couple. Steve llrodie, the noted bridge jumper, is once more happy. Some time since his wife left him because he "slapped" her. Brodic was repentant and disconsolate. A friend started to remark, "There's as good llsh in the sea" when he stopped hlra with the reply: "That may be all right, but what I want is the flsh I caught first." Now Mrs. Urodie has agreed to forget end forgive, and Steve has prom-ised, "so help him," never to. lay a hand on her again save in the way of kindness. ATHLETIC CLUB GOSSIP. ' George R. Gray, the champion amateur shot putter of the world, who lives in Cold-wate- r, Ont., intends to take part in games in New York city and make a record for putting tto twenty pound shot. He holds nearly all other amateur shot putting fig-ures. George Riddell, the well known shot putter of the Wanderers' Cricket and Ath-letic club, of Chicago, is considerably heavier than he was last year when he did so well, aud thinks ho will do better than ever during the coming season. His at style the game is very good for an amateur. The New Jersey Athletic club are trying hard to induce W. D. Day, the cross coun-try champion, to take a trip to Kngland to compete nt tho English championships on July 12. Day says he would like the visit, but he would prefer delaying it until one season latei; . George Miehling, so long connected with the Varuna Boat club, of Brooklyn, but who is now wrestling instructor of the Olympic Athletic club, of San Francisco, has made many friends in that city, and says that he is thoroughly satisfied and will stav.

Salvationists In Trouble. The authorities of Pes Moines, Io., are apparently as little in sympathy with the Salvatioa army as they are with the liquor traffic. The followers of Gen. Booth re-cently paraded the streets with horns and drums in defiance of a municipal order. When arrested they made the court room resound with shouts and songs and pray-ers. But the police judge punished them all the same. I John B. Carr, of New Yorfc city, has to pay alimony of $3 weekly to his wife Kate. To fulfill the obligation he recently left 300 cents with a court clerk. Mrs. Carr took the pennies with the philosophic remark: "I don't care. Three dollars is three dollars." . LItiuk tilth a Hroken Keek. John Dailcy, a farm hand employed near Brunswick, N. J., fell from a hay-mow and unjointed his neck. Dr. Car-roll was called and said that tho man couldn't live more than a few hours, Dailey said that he could, and he is still alive.
