more or less animosity at the incoming OF each
new administratlon'wheDt the wives OF Cabinet
ministers have to be inst ructed IN their duties.
The law has never been received oy any new
some degree of complaint; but the ladies OF
the Senate have always won the day, and
are so far in the ascendancy at present
that all the ladies of the diplomatic corps are
obliged to make the first calls upon them,
which Is rather peculiar state of affairs, since
strangers, it would seem, and moreover for
eigners, ought to be made the recipients OF
hospitality, Instead of finding themselves, on
their arrival In our capital, already burdened
with visiting list of no mean length. Ihe
question then arises who shall call first on the
other, the Senate ladies', or the ladies' OF the
Supreme Court. The reverence for creative
power is again developed, and the Senate re.
fers to its right of confirmation or rejection OF
the nominations for Supreme judges; but The
when we declare them unconstitutional We
can make them all null and void And so that
point is disputed, and may be decided again
and again without being put at rest.
Still the rank Of third lady is not unanimous
ly conceded to any one. The Cabinet being so
efectually snubbed by the foregoing argyll
ments, one would suppose all pretensions to
such an honor would be far from the minds OF
the wives of its members. The wife of the
speaker of the House, some affirm, is entitled
to this distinction, her husband being third in
succession to the Presidency (?); or, as others
declare, 1t Is her right because her husband re-
presents a body lQuery demned. damp,
moist, uncomfortable body ?)-the House OF
Representatives Cabinet minister is
merely head clerk The ladies Of the Cabl-
net bear this with still greater Indignation than
that with which the views Of senatorial stick
lers for etiquette are received, and are by no
means disposed to submit. 1t Is therefore no
ticed what seat Ia accorded the speakers wife
at Presidential state dinner composed
of high officials of the government, and
deductions are made accordingly. On such
occasions the wife of the Secretary OF State
usually ranks next to the wife OF the Vice.
President. Next come in order the wives oil
the Secretaries OF the Treasury, War Depart
ment, Navy Department, Postmaster General,
Acknowledgement. and last the wife of the Sec
retary of the Interior. 1t Is urged, however,
that etiquette Us observed at the Executive
Mansion should not be regarded as gospel-law,
and that mistakes are frequently made In that
high quarter. During the past winter, with
out bitterness or rancor, the question Of pre-
cedence has been frequently discussed, and,
while many complaints have been made in
private of existing social regulations, 1t is due
to the ladies most concerned in the matter to
say nothing dsagreeable has ever occurred
during the reign In this connection There
fore, It must be allowed that ia the matter OF
temper 1870 Is 80 far an Improvement on 1920.

II THE excellent illustrated article :" Be
hind. Below and Above the Scenes" in
the current number Of -dppletOn's Jour-
nal, the writer, who is thoroughly at home
with his subject, questions at the outset
the common opinion that glimpse at
the machinery OF the stage will dispei all
its charming Illusions. Managers, back-door
keepers. and all who are connected with the
theatre. guard these inner precincts with zeal.
The manager does not wish to nave every
Tom. Dick and Harry wandering at will over
his boards during rehearsal, or flirting with
his actresses at the flies in the evening. Not
knowing where to draw the line at the large
majority of the theatres, very few outsiders
ever find themselves among the couliSSes. At
any time these people are in the way. They
interrupt rehearsal, they canse the actors at
nightto keep the stage waiting and in many
other ways make their room preferable to
their company. For these reasons the mana
ger is right in keeping up the popular delu-
sion that it is best for the people that they can
not take peep behind the curtain.

Prince Arthur in the Field.

There is something of the romantic in a
prince of the blood being summoned from q
ballroom to the field Of battle. His Royal
Highness celebrated Tuesday, the oath instant,
her Majestys birthday, by large dinner party
at his own residence, and in the evening pro-
ceeded to ball at Mr.. Allan's. 1t was while
at the ball that the Prince first heard that his
regiment, the P. C. o. Rifles, was under
orders to proceed to the frontier, in
anticipation Of Fenian invasion. The
Prince left al an early hour yesterday morn
ing, and, inspired by the gallantry OF his
race, asked permission to serve on Lord Rus
sells staff. The post Of danger is the post OF
honor, and IL was q brave act OF his Royal
Highness to select an exposed and prominent
position. His presence on the field Will In
spire every British subject with fresh zeal.
We regret the hard necessity which compels
his Royal Hlghness to put his life in SO igno.
BILE combat, but we are puzzled to know what
we should have done had the Fenians delayed
their attack until the last of the regular troops
had departed.

STEAM is to be superseded by electricity.
The New York correspondent of the Boston
Journal describes new Invention tor driving
lathes, planning machines, and other mechani-
cal arrangements by this power. To run an
engine of twenty-horse power by this inven-
ton would require only space OF three feet
long. two feet wide and TWO feet high.
The cost per day would be thirty-lve cents.
On steamship no coal would be re-
uuired, and the space now used for coal
and machinery could be used for cargo.
The stubborn resistance of electricity to
mechanical use heretofore has, 1t is believ-
ed, been overcome continuous battery has
been secured and other difficulties removed,
principally through the coil Of the magnet, II
the invention works as we'll on large scale as
it does on the machinery to which ills now ap-
piled, it is thought that steamships will soon
ply the ocean under the new propelling power.
A machine Of great capacity is being construc-
ted. and will soon he on exhibition in New
York. The whole thing, mighty enough to
carry Cunarder to Liverpool, can be secured
in small trunk. The Scientific American con-
siders these statements sensational and not
