W. Grevy's Wife and Daughter.

New Orleans Picayune.
The first lady of the land-mind you,
am now speaking in an official sense-is
necessarily Mime. Jules Grevy. Monarchists
sueer at her because her Christian name Is
Coralie. Some even go so far as to say
that she was his cook when he married her.
There is not word of truth in this. Mile.
FTaysse received a careful convent educa-
ton and was engaged to the future presi-
dent OF the republic for long time. She
patiently waited in her parents home until
she was 2S years of age for the man she
loved TO win position at the Paris bar.
Those who know Nine. Grevy best declare
that she has no taste for the honOrs which
form part Of her present life. and she
sincerely regrets her bourgeois life and the
snug apartment whence she removed to the
gOrgeOusly blue and gold upholstered bed
chamber In which she now sleeps at the
Elysee. She does not care TO go out, likes
TO see herself that the table is what it should
be, and yawns at the very idea of going to
the theater. She is a home body par ex-
eXeellence-the mer interieur, as a punning
habitue of the Elysee calls her.
Mime. Wilson, the daughter of the presi-
dent and Nine. Greyy, is quite different
sort of a person from her mother. She has
llne Dldch eyes anu Il great lOlluncSS IOI anu
taste in everything relating to art. Society
people who do not like the republic say that
she is so fond of music that she once
thought of marrying certain tenor at the
opera. But this, too, is piece of that
gossip which flies around Partisan salons
after originating no one knows how or
where. Before her marriage she was fond
of hunting and the constant companion of
her father in his raids on the pheasant of
the state preserves at Rambouillet. Since
she became Nine. Wilson her maternal
duties have forced her to moderate her
fondneSs for sport, but her love of art re-
mains undated, and the apartment that NJ.
and Nine. Wilson occupy in the presiden-
tial palaces is as crowded with pictures,
bronZes and rare china as was the little
room of Mile. Grevy in the Rue st. Ar
maud.

The Present Egyptian X hediye.

Paris letter TO San Francisco Chronicle.
The Khedive shook hands and seated me
on one side of the angle made by the cor
ner, while he occupied chair directly in
front of me. Thus placed, the light from
the window fell upon him, and had an
opportunity of studying the man who, since
he came to power, has from the force of
circumstances been almost as fully in the
blaze of notority as any European monarch.
1 have already said that he was neatly
dressed. His linen was of remarkable
whiteness, suggesting that the rupture of
the dual control has not prevented the re-
retention of French laundress. 1t may be
royal popularity to have clean linen, but in
this case the whiteneSs was exceptional.
The Khedive has narrowly escaped being
handsome. His hair is dark, his nose
straight and net large, his other features
are regular. while his black eyes are lumin-
Ons and full of expression. He wore his
beard full and closely cut, and his dress
was a black frock coat, white vest and
light checked pantaloons. His shirt front
was ornamented with simple gold studs and
on his right hand he wore small ring set
with Jewel. Altogether his attire was
elegant, unpretentious. unobtrusive, while
his looks and manners conveyed the i'm
preston of great kindness and sincerity of
character. The conversation that ensued
was in English, whick the Khediye spoke
with fluency. though with the French
idioum, thinking, evidently. in French.
with which language he has been familiar
from his childhood, and then translating
into that in which he desired TO convey his
ideas. His accent was much better than
that of most Europeans speaking the Ian.
guage with equal readiness.

Lord Roseberry a Primrose.

Dondon letter TO San f rancisco Argoneut.
When the idea of racing bankrupt of
but few wears ago being made secretary
of state for foreign affairs; for that was
virtually the financial and social condition
of the Earl of Roseberry in 1877, when he
paid up his turf debts by a marriage with
Miss Rothschild. Apropos of Lord Rose
berry, have been told-with what truth 1
am unable to say-that he once behaved in
a most dishonorable way to Miss Duncan,
of New York. He had gone out on heiress-
hunting to America, like the common run
of impoverished peers with a coronet for
sale TO American papas, and had become
engaged TO Miss Duncan. whose father was
one of the solid men of New York. Before
the marriage took place rumors reached the
Earl, who had come back TO England, that
Mr.. Duncan was in financial difficulties
Like a shot he wrote to break the engage
ment. AS Mr.. Duncan shortly after
thoroughly reinstated himself, the difficulty
being but temporary one. it was rather a
sell for Lord Roseberry. whose real motives
had been so completely given away, for
Miss Duncan was as beautiful and refined
as she was rich, and about as complete
opposite to Miss Rothschild-whose purse
afterwards came to the noble earl's rescue
from ignominous bankruptcy-as one can
imagine. Lord Roseberry is a great friend
and toady of Gladstone. and that. together
with his alliance by marriage with the
money power of the Rothschilds. has got
him recognition. 1t is a curious thing that
Lord Roseberry's family name is Primrose,
and that with such Tory patronynic he
should be sopronOunced a Radical.

what an advertisements Did.

About two months ago couple of enter
priSing people with some knowledge of the
Orient and limited trade connection in
Japan went to New York with few Japa-
nese gOods-fans, dadoes. screens and q lot
of Japanese stuffs, of silk, satins and other
things. They got little place up several
flights OF stairs, in a retired locality, and
put a three-line advertisement in one or
two OF the papers that they were new in the
business, but had such and such things for
sale. At that time Col. McCaull was tear
ing his brain in shreds trying TO think just
how TO costume his "Mikado" company.
Mr.. Stevens, McCaulI's best man, knew the
tribulation of his chief. He sat one morn
ing taking five-cent cup of coffee and a
ten-cent slice of November shad in little
cubby hole on Rector street, when he picked
up a fragment of paper that had been
wrapped around bologna sausage
which newsboy had brought in TO go with
a two-cent cup of coffee that the boy bought
and his eye fell upon the little japanese ad-
vertiSement. The lad" was covered with
grease, but Mr.. Stevens eagle eye de-
ciphered IL. He went TO the nearest tele-
phone and communicated with the colonel
The colonel got copy of the paper, read
the little ad.. then showing Mime. Cottrelly
into carriage. the twain met Stevens and
away they went to the Japanese depot. 1t
was small affair, but the trio were not
daunted. Mme. Cottrelly handled the
stuffs, looked at the gold embroideries
twirled the fans. admired the sandals, and
twitched the umbrellas. Then she gave the
colonel big wink, and the splendid Vir-
gilman roared out in his way: what will
you costume the 'Mikado' for, / TO give you
measurements and the number of costumes,
and this lady to superintend the job? We
shall want everything of the very best ma
terial, and we shall want not less than
forty costumes" The young men, who
had just begun business. had their breath
taken away for the moment, but they
were brave, and said they would figure
on it. The next day a bargain
was struck, and McCaull agreed to pay
Sc, 900 for the outfit. The result of this
contract is now seen nightly on the stage of
the opera house. The costumes are of the
very choicest of silks, pushes and en-
broideries, the Mikado's robe being a mar
vel of gold lace. 1t alone cost $3.50. Ko-
Kos robe of crimson plush, incrusted with
gold embroidery, represents another $500,
and from the very highest to the lowest in
cast the costumes are rich, becoming, and
in perfect keeping.
The firm which did the work gave such
satisfaction. and then work was so strik-
ing, that now Boston ''Mikado' company
has given orders to duplicate the McCauu
costumes, and John Stetson is about to re-
dress his D'Oyley Carte company in the
same shop. The firm sees contracts ahead
amounting to nearly $40, 900, and it all
came from little four-lina advertisement,
in scrap of a newspaper, which Mr..
Stevens saw as he sat waiting for fifteen.
cent breakfast in Rector street.

The Marlborough Pictures.

LONDON NOrlu.
The season at Christie's will not be so
dull as has been anticipated. The Duke of
Marlborough's famous collection at Blen-
helm Palace, with the exception of the
family portraits, will be scattered under the
hammer in June. After the eT0, 900 for
the Raphael, to say nothing of the Van
Dyck, it is scarcely likely that any further
treasures from this source will be acquired
for the nation, though there are a Sir
Joshua and a Gainsborough or two that
should be very tempting to Sir Frederick
Burton and others who look to our art in
terests. The profits from the public sale
will be hardly likely to compare with the
above transaction. Something considerable
should certainly be realized; for not only
are there valuable pictures, but fine speci-
mems of china

dreds of people. was not identified last
night. Neither was there even a scrap of
paper on the body that shed ray of light
on the mystery. The body is that of a
young man, probably less than 80 years of
age, rather good looking, with regular fea-
lures, a blonde mustache, light hair closely
cut behind, and dressed in the garb of a
workingman. He wore a white soft hat,
flannel shirt and rather coarse clothing
throughout.
AT the morgue post mOrtem was held,
revealing the fact that the man had been
shot near the pelvic bone, but the latter
wound would not have been fatal. This
circumstance has led to the opinion that it
was homicide. 1t seems quite impossible
that any one would have attempted suicide
by shooting himself in that organ. 1t
would have been very easy matter for the
murderer to have placed the weapon in the
hand of the dying man in order TO give the
impression That it was q suicide. In sub
StantiatiC:s: &C this theory comes the fact
tibet no valuables or papers of any kind
were found on the corpse. This arouseS
the suspicion that the man was murdered
and robbed. The body indicated that it
had remained under the trees for several
hours. The coroner will hold an inquest
to-day at the morgue.

One of the brightest lights of the Austin

PROHIBITION TALK.
Editor Called DOwn--The Paper
That is Always Fair.

To the Editor of the Globe:
noticed in to-day's issue of the Evening
Journal april 81, an article headed ''All
or Nothing" and if you will kindly allow
Inc space, would like to reply to what he
says. He says: 1.-The more unreasoning
ZealOts of the Prohibition party of Mime
apolis must be convinced by this time that
their declared purpose of bringing the
Republicans to terms by persistence in the
policy Of all or nothing is a flat failure"
Let me say now and for all time to come,
that the Prohibition party Of Minneapolis
asks no favors from the Republican party.
They had their last conference two years
ago. The Prohibition party stands to-day
as true to its principles as it did before
election. and if the editor Of that dirty,
little sheet feels a little sore since
Tuesdays election and wants to pay his
compliments to the Prohibition party he is
at liberty to do so. but let me tell the editor
OF the Journal that he nor the Tribute will
stop the onward march of the Prohibition
cause. You will find US two years from
Tuesday just where we were then, ONLY
about ), 900 votes ahead. Now Mr.. Editor
we never considered the Journal or Tribune
friends to the cause of prohibition, but we
are glad that we have paper whose col
umns are open to the friends of prohibition
to reply to all attacks made by the Journal
or Tribune, and right here let me say to
every Prohibitionist subscribe for the GLOBE
if you want all the news. If you are TAX
ing either the Journal or Tribune let them
go and take the GLOBE. and / will guaran-
tee you paper that will deal fairly with
all sides of questions. In conclusion !
would like to ask Scrap Iron mill through
the columns of the GLOBE who he is going to
vote for next election. 1 see by the Jour-
nal he is going to send DR.. Ames to con-
gress. That's right, Scrap, you have been
with the wrong side long enough-ten
days. After you send the doctor to con-
gress who will you vote for then. By the
way, is Scrap Iron advanced any since elec-
ton. E. L. SIMoNs.
