I t Í À Ann Eliza Interviewed. « I A late interview with “ Wife Num ber Nineteen ” is thus given in tho Globe Democrat: Mrs. A. E. Y. was one of the Mrs. Youngs. She has the inner history of polygamy, and, having been one of the favorites possessing electric perception, she knew the man of many wives far more dorrectly than many who retailed his doctrines. She doesn’t possess the magnetism of Victoria Woodhull; she doesn’t remind one of the rattle of mus- keriy ; she is the steady fird of a deter mined line. She has come to that pe riod in life where the flimsy idealities of life snap and the realities are admitted and recognized ; she is a little cold in repose, but terribly earnest when active. You see this and become convinced of it when her eyes sparkle as they keep mu sic to the strong words that fall from her lips. Her talk is made with re markable ease. She is one of those kind of people with whom an interview is a pleasure. She doesn’t think a re porter is a robljer, and gratifies him by doing most of the talking in a genteel way. And if one oi her is happens to miss being dotted, she doesn’t call around with it the next day cut out, looking for the “ wretch who wrote that,” with a pitchfork hidden in her sleeve. She is not that kind of a woman. “ You want my personal experience among the Saints I’ A gesture of assent wa3 made. “ 1 had rather not speak of that. » In fact, I feel a little sensitive about it. “Why did you leave then 1” I could not tolerate the teachings, I little thought when I first spoke of Ï i miles from Salt Lake, a mother and son, named Jones, who had left the Church, were killed in the night and their bodies hauled in a wagon about the town ; it wa« haulted in front of every door as a warning to all unbelievers. The history of the whole Church glares with just such deeds, and yet the evil doctrine and the evil doers are spared because of the belief and earnestness of the ignor ant masses.” Tl>is deplorable fact was commented upon, and she said: “I think the'■Society for the Preven tion of Cruelty to Animals should sub stitute ‘human beings’ for ‘animals.’ ” “But these Polygamists assert that they have jieace, and those who go in side their Territorial limits never leave T ’ • “It is not true.- At nearly every point I lecture I meet people who have realized, in some form or other, this awful wrong, and escaped from its curses.” As Mrs. Young declined to give any personal experience with the late Brig ham, she was left alone, with the flush her earnestness had created upon her face. The Winter at Washington. The demand for furnished houses «in Washington, is far greater than ever known before, and suitable accommoda tions are very scarce. The large number of new buildings erected during the past Summer, it was supposed, would so glut the market that rents would greatly de cline, whereas, the contrary has been the result. There has been an advance of from 20 to 40 per cent., especially in furnished houses and other dwellings convenient to fashionable and official quarters. THE INCREASED DEMAND The Holton House. Feeling the necessity of having more extensive accommodations in conse quence of being compelled to turn away old customers and friends, Dan Holton, proprietor of the popular Holton House, leased the large building on the comer of Alder and First streets, and fitted it up in the most elegant style for a hotel where he could entertain all patrons who desired the comfort and hospitality of his house. To-day we visited the new house which is open for the reception of guests, and was shown through it. The bar-room is the most complete and mag nificent in Oregon, the panel work coun ter and bar being made of that beauti ful wood known as maple burl and which no State in America can equal. The billiard room adjoining is finished with maple and black walnut, with bil liard and card tables and is the favorite resort of gentlemen in the city. On the first floor we found one of the cosiest and most handsomely furnished parlors in the State, where the guests are made to feel at home and ladies find books in the library to suit their tastes. The rooms on this floor both in suits and j single, are complete in every particular, ; two of the rooms being furnished with furniture made entirely of maple burl which are the only ones of the kind in the world. All this furniture was made by Isaac Sensheimer, who is j pronounced the most skillful workman in Oregon. The other rooms, all of which are light, pleasant and airy, are furnished with black walnut and maple burl furniture with libraries in each room. The floors are covered with Brus sels and damask carpets, walls ornamented with beautiful paintings, and everything within the walls, to lace and damask curtains, are in keeping with this ele gance. The rooms are elegant and com fortable enough for even Gen. Grant without any extra touches. From this floor, as from the other apartments, stairways lead to the dining and billiard halls below as well as to the street. Passing to the third floor we find the rooms on the north and east side fur nished with the same elegance. The corner, or Fourth of July chamber, is the lightest and most comfortable in the house, from which views of the city, Mt. Hood, St Helens and Rainier may be had. On the south side of this floor are the rooms prepared for plainer peo ple, containing white ash and maple fur niture and carpets less expensive. Taken altogether the Holton House is the most elegant hotel in Oregon, and persons patronizing the genial Dan will Lave no cause to regret their cbeice. Ladies re- ceive every attention and will find this the pleasantest place in Portland to re- main while visiting the metropolis. Grows out of the growing popularity of Washington as a Winter resort, and tho host of people of elegant leisure from the Eastern and Western States who come here to enjoy the milder climate and attractions of the capital. It is a well known fact that there is not a city in the world where there exists a better class of society than in Washington, for it not only includes the President and cabinet, and the officers of the general branch of government, but the families of the representatives of all foreign gov ernments, with their attaches, many of whom have married Tobacco Slaves.
