Not as yet are Americans altogether llv-l:- x In Europe, according to an old proph- ecy, is nor 13 America quite peopled with I.r.clbhmen, but it is true that the whole cf Kurope is adapting ways a la Ameri-c.dri- e, and r specially that English wrinkles are crowding out many of our own cus- tom?. The impetus to a new move is usually by tho clement of society that have trav- eled abroad, and who on returning to this country shake fads out of their trunks quite as easily as they do their new clothes. Fnon it is then bruited about that such and ?:ch a thing Is done by Lady Something h.m-body- , and before the season Is over a to revolution is accomplished. Lately we have had our eyes opened a bit about our way of sending out Invitations to largo social functions, and how we should address the men of our acquaint- ance. Even by those in our own households we have been told that we have been In the h tbit of doing some very vulgar things, that for years we have been committing the crime, of addressing envelopes to Mr. John Drown, and have moreover piqued ourselves that in so doing we have been absolutely correct. It is, in fact, only a ft w years ago that this mode of address came violently into fashion. This season however, we notice the form of addressing men of social standing to be, John Brown, esq., while Mr. John Brown has been laid on the shelf to bo used exclusively for tradesmen. In as well-know- n house as Mrs. Ogden Mills's this mode of procedure is held to rigorously. At a tine when gayety was at Its height last winter Mrs. Mills employed "John- ston," the high sachem of invitations and the inexorable one who knows how long people have been in New York society bet- ter than any one else, to bid her friends to a ball. But on examining his work he found that over n hundred of the en- velopes had been written with "Mr." bo-fo- re the name. They were promptly Is thrown in the waste paper basket, as Mrs. Mills said she could not have them leave her house in that form. The bomb, there- fore, was hurled, and Johnston had a sur- prise, for. as ho knew well, Mrs. Astor had not followed this custom in sending ut her invitations to a similar function 'ciily a few days before. It may have been that this excellent lady saw a glint of absurdity in our attempting to draw fo strict a lino in a country where often tur best friends are tradesmen and where there an no country esquires. The point now, however, is one on which the prople are taking their own stand, and secretaries ami tnoso that come to the Ioue to address envelopes make "which form is to be followed?" their first ques- tion. Th frequent complaint of our Kn-pli- sh cousins who come to this country that It looked "very odd" to see gentle- men addressed as Mr. has had something to do in bringing this matter closelv to th attention, and there se?ms to be little doubt that they will not much longer have invasion to bo so shocked. Also, we cannot help observing that there seems to be no abatement In the Americans' keenness about special desig- nations. Mr. Joseph Choate's visiting ard reads "Ambassador Choate." with f url her of his address in the right-han- d .rn.r. Mr. Depew's card is written "Senator Chauncey M. Depew." But oven more strange it Is, perhaps, that Mr. S. th Low. president of Columbia College, bis o:i bis card simply "President Low" : ! his homo address. In a foreign coun- try stu li a card might cause comment. 'oncemlng the cards of women, it Is cub to the influence of Mrs. Astor, who, It will he remembered, insisted on this ap-r-üati- on instead of that of Mrs. William Ator, that the volley of cards showereef during the winter have read simply "Mrs. Kip." "Mrs. Post." "Mrs. Morris." until one is fairly beside one's self with trying t think just who Is the present head of the family, or endeavoring to replace the im.i-- o of some gray-heade- d woman with tint of a slip of a girl. Happily, the homo foi.iress. which is never omitted on a card J u koh form, often helps one out in the Kientitication of its owner. Here, again, we notice another wrinkle, lormerly those with country as well as city homes used two sets of cards, each o: o bearing the respective address of the in which their owners were resident. It now is regarded as more correct to use t.ie two addresses on one card. Miss Helen 't:M. who with propriotv has on her card f;mp!v "Miss Gould," has therefore in the J .d corner "Lyndhurst. lrvington-on-U- : ison." and in tho right-han- d corner the rumber of her homo on Fifth avenue. A tmporary address, such that of a hotel in a strange city, should be written at the ten of the card and In pencil.

While the small Roman type still seen on cards, it is fast being re- placed by small old Knglish letters, the ultra-fashionab- le fad of the moment. And often they are done in a soft shade of steel gray Instead of the Jet black of longer use. IVrnnnal and Socinl Xotea. Dr. L. L. Todd has returned from a northern trip.

ARMOUR'S PROPHECY TRUE m: SAID 31 K AT PACK : IIS MIST MOVH TO TCXAS. Promoter Tried to Coddle lllm Into Sellins: Hl Plant, bat Failed Dinntnlly. "The announcement made recently that Armour & Co. and Swift & Co., the great Chicago meat packers, have bought the stockyards In Fort Worth, Tex., and con- template erecting pork-packin- g establish- ments in that city at a cost of a million dollars," said W. H. Hobbs, a well-know- n local real-esta- te man, "reminds me of an Interesting conversation I had with the late Philip D. Armour a few years ago. "I had some business with Mr. Armour before he retired from active business life and at his request met him at his office one morning in June. It was during the lively times when the government was rushing orders for meat for the soldiers in the Spanish-America- n war. I knew Mr. Ar- mour's habits and, accordingly, went to his ofllce very early in tho morning. I was shown into his private room with little de- lay and, after finishing my business with him, arose to leave, fearing to trespass upon his time. To my surprise, however, he asked me very cordially to be seated again. Without any preliminaries he fell into a lengthy reminiscent talk about his early life, pleasantly interspersed with observa- tions concerning the condition of the pork trade. " 'All the packers are paying too much for hogs,' he said, and to illustrate his mean- ing said that he had noticed of late that one of his shippers in Wisconsin, who had, for a number of years, been sending him hogs of an exceptionally fine quality, had failed to make any shipments. Mr. Armour said he wired this man to find out why he was not making shipments as usual. Back came the answer that Klngan & Co.'s agents were on the ground buying and pay- ing more for hogs than either Armour or Swift would pay. 'Think of an Indianapolis concern outdoing Chicago establishments,' said the millionaire packer with a laugh and a suggestive shrug of his shoulders. " I will venture a prophecy continued Mr. Armour, 'which will scarcely meet your aproval, but watch and see If time does not prove I am right. Fort Worth, Tex., Is bound to become the most important point of the packing trade of this country. Do you want my reason for making this pre- diction? Why, simply because the packers must go where the hogs are and stop try- ing to bring the hogs to them. That is why the receipts of hogs at the Chicago stock- yards aro falling off steadily. You will find that the great packing interests will have to move further West than either Omaha or Kansas City. "That statement made a great impression upon me." said Mr. Hobbs, "and how I did wish I had money enough to take advan- tage of that great man's suggestion! I think I would bo In the real-esta- te business on a slightly larger scale than I am to-da- y. Well, you see how Mr. Armour's prophecy is being realized. The big packing estab- lishment left by him and the almost equally largo establishment of the Swifts are to in- vade the Texas field in a way that means business, and I have no doubt the lesser establishments will follow close on their heels. PROMOTERS TRIED TO COAX HIM. "Mr. Armour also told me of the fun he had with several New York promoters that visited him once to try and secure an option on his packing establishment. 'I listened attentively to all they had to say he said, 'and when they were through talk- ing I told them that I had all the money I needed and that I had not the slightest desire to part with my business, since It was all I had to occupy my leisure atten- tion. I also told them that I desired to leave my business to my children. Not long afterward I took a notion I would go to Europe to spend some time in Iondon and also at one of the watering places in Ger- many. When I boarded the steamer at the dock in New York I was not a little sur- prised to find my friends, the promoters, there ahead of me. Well, the way those fellows began to make things pleasant for me was a caution. Nothing was too good for me. They made me the guest of honor at several fine suppers, kept me supplied with the best cigars to be obtained on ship- board and tried in every other way they could think of to put me into a friendly attitude toward them. I told them where I was going, and I guess that accounts for the fact that wTien I stepped on the steamer at Liverpool to return to New-Yor- k the 'promoters' were there to meet me. Once more they began a round of en- tertainments of which I was the central figure. When wc drew near Sandy Hook one of the party.said in his smoothest tone of voice, "Now, Mr. Armour, we would take it as a great favor if you would name us your figure on your racking establish- ment." 1 realized that it was pretty tough to turn them down after they had fairly laid themselves out in entertaining me, but I had to da it. They finally came to un- derstand that they could not buy me out, and when we landed at the pier in New York the adieus were very short.' EARLY HOURS AND COOL HEAD. "Mr. Armour was a man that believed the early hours of the morning are the best time to work," continued Mr. Hobbs, "and while he remained in business he al- ways came to his office early. What I con- sidered a remarkable thing about him was his freedom from excitability. Nothing seemed able to disturb his equanimity. At the time I visited him the provision mar- ket was in a great flurry, pork had jumped several dollars a barrel and lard had gone up proportionately, and the government was calling on the Armour establishment for large shipments of meat, but through all this bustle and excitement Mr. Armour remained perfectly cool and impassive. He knew his lieutenants thoroughlj-- , and felt that there was no occasion to be disquieted over the siluation with such men looking after his interests. He seemed entirely willing to give me all the time I cared to occupy, but I thought it would be wise to retire, and, thanking him for his courtesy, took my leave, feeling that I had been for- tunate in coming in contact with one of the greatest business men this country has ever produced."
