nominate Tilden in spite of his decli-

didate against his oft-cxpresscd de.
sire. Bayard is statesman who can
win as easily as Tilden.

Elizabeth Amalia Eugene, empress Of Ana.
IRA, ls perhaps the Eeencst horsewomau in
Europe today. Gtis no small compliment Co
the attractions of these islands that the em-
press of Austria and queen of Bohemia and
Hungary, desiring TO seek health and recrea-
tion i'm the open air, should desert the broad
plains of the countries over which her hus-
band holds sway to seek the delights OF am
English huntiug-feld.
1t is about six years since she first made her
appearance i'm the hunting field i'm this coun-
try. lt was at a celebrated meet In Le.ces-
tershire, where, without any preliminary
flourish of trumpCts, the empress rode into
the field, and cantered to covert side, many
being unaware Of her identity. The geuer-
ally correct appearance Of the lady, the
admirable cattle on which masters and SER
wants and well-known cavalier i'm charge
were mounted, drew attention to the small
Cavalcade and soon it became abuudanty
apparent that the empress, who had come to
England to hunt, knew perfectly well what
was requisite and could hold her own with the
best Hands, Seat and knowledge Of
pace, it was observed, were all possessed in
a high degree by this imperial lady, and pilot
or guide not only very often found his place
a sinecure but on many occasions had to do
all he knew to live the pace. She has made
several visits since, both to Ireland and to
England, hunting with the Westmeath hounds
in the former, and with Sir Watlln Wynns
in the latter.
