Mrs. BELKNAP.-Figure to yourself .
lady somewhat above the medium height.
very slender, and as straight Is an arrow,
with that exquisite pose Of the head which
made Mrs. Kate Sprague so famous: MRS.
Belknap's throat was covered to the chin
with band of black velvet of her gown.
Around this band. which was headed by q
narrow thread lace, were four rows OF pearls
of great value. l speak OF the band and
beads first because they strike the eye IN
view of the rich costume. There were pearls
in the ears, buttoned on, apparently, In the
present fashion, and the only relief to the
black velvet hat was couple OF delicate
and rare plumes which curved in line
with the sweep Of the train, as with quick
step she came forward to pay her respects
to Mrs. Grant and party. 1t was not until
she moved off and took her place. with
head erect, in the select coterie behind the
table. that observed her face and learned
who she was. 1t was not pleasing face,
because so cold. The complexion was glow
ing and the features were irregular enough
to have been piquant. if there had been
much expression. But it was Just the pure
red and white skin, red lips, black hair,
and dark eyes, which. out of velvet and the
White House, one could just as well frame
in the kitchen looking glass as In my lady s
mirror. Co not say it is an ignorant face,
bat the reader may make any inference he
pleases.
To return to Mrs. Belknsp's costumes.
At Lady Thornton's party she wore white
silk (imported). trimmed with lace of price
less value, and lavishly adorned with dow
ers. There was : wreath Of flowers, with
flowers pendant, in all quarter of yard
in depth, around the entire skirt, made en-
train, and ornamenting the waist. Very
little adornment was required for the waist.
which was the very extreme Of decolette.
exposing to view an illimitable expanse OF
shoulders and bust. The dress was so low
that the waist rested in it somewhat after
the fashion of lily in its cup. 1t was
comey in view of the many coarse, scraggy,
notified aud disgusting spectacles Of the
kind in view, but there was little too
much of Washington Letter Of flro

4 NOTED WoNAN.-A California reporter
has hunted up and interviewed the famous
Mrs Cunningham Burdell, now Mrs. Will
liams, the defendant in the murder case
which, tried in New York about twenty
years ago, attracted the attention OF people
in all quarters. Mrs. Williams Is resident
Of San Francisco, and in appearance Is q
pleasant-loOking matronly woman, showing
no trace of the terrible ordeal through
which she passed when on trial for her
life, nor the mental agony which would
naturally be the result Of remorse if she is
guilty, or OF the worlds frequently express
ed contempt if she is innocent. Mrs. VIII
liams spoke very freely of the murder and
connecting circumstances. and said that II
opportunity had been afforded her at the
time she could have put the authorities on
the track of the real murderer. She was
very set in her opinion that from the outset
the Coroner, and others concerned, were so
convinced OF her guilt that they would not
allow the possibility Of her innocence.
After her acquittal She went to San Fran
cisco in the same ship with Starr King, and
shortly after arriving there married man
named Hyde, from whom she was divorced
in 1867. subsequently marrying Mr.. Will
liams, with whom she now lives very hap
PLY. In the early years of her residence in
California she bought copper mine in
Loreto. which she still owns. Her property
is in Lower California, and is known as the
sauce ranch. comprising 40, 800 acres, and
having upon it two valuable copper mines.
Ii Is worth between one and two millions
of dollars.
