Mrs. Alice Houghton, tho Lady Man- j

much-flustered state since she got back
to the World's Fair. It will be remem
bered that 1(5.000 was appropriated for

now for no reason that can be learned
tho Board of Lady Managers has refused
to forward her any more. . She had not
even enough to pay the scrub woman
who condescends to holy-stone the floor
of her department. Mrs. Houghton has
had several conferences with Dr. Cal

Commissioner is too shrewd to mix him
