FRANCES FIRST LADY.
Mme. Carnot's Hlustrious Regime at tn,
Palais Elysce.

Mme' Carnots ulustrious Regime at the
Palais Elysce.
The E1ysee Palace, under the Presidency
OF M Carnot and under the social reign of
Nine. Carnot is one of the most attractive
homes in Paris, writes Paris correspond
emit. So marked is the contrast between
Nine. Grevy and Nine Carnot, between the
unlnteresting wife of the ex-President and
the grande dame who is now the first lady
in the land, that even the proud, uncompro-
missing Royalists and Bonapartists have ex-
pressed their appreciation and esteem.
Quite in contrast to his predecessor Presi-
dent Carnot entertains lavishly.
Always ball at the Elysee has been a
synonym for discomfort, but now gallery,
1OOxl25 feet, has been constructed in the
garden, near Avenue Marigny. There are
hanglngs bordered with gold fringe, ancient
tapestries and around the cornice Gobelin
representing France, and a ceiling painted
by Levastre.
Three white marble statues ornament the
room. Delorme's ''Fluteur," "Gautherin's
"Clotilde de Sarville," and Claud Vlgnon's
"Pecheur." The furniture is all uphol-
stored with yellow brocade; here and there
are scattered gilt consols, supporting
Sevres vases and the magnificent Louis
XIV. chandeliers are arranged for electric
detail, from the place of chair to
the arrangement of flowers scat
tered in profusion throughout this
long gallery. In fact, Nine. Carnot's love
for flowers is proverbiaI; on her reception
days one sees baskets of flowers, banks of
flowers, vases of flowers, so many flowers
that one forgets the severe salons and their
severer mode of furnishing Since the
Duchess de Bourbon, at the end of the last
century, the Elysee Palace has had no mis-
tress so charming as Nine. Carnot. By her
one is welcomed and Immediately put at
ease, and slight deafness only makes her
more agreeable.
Nine. Carnot at first view seems little
Pur1tanical In appearance, but perhaps
there lies her charm. She must have
reached certain age" because since M.
Carnot's Presidency child has been born
to their daughter, Nine. Casinnet. But
there are times when Nine. Carnot seems
to be no more than twenty-five years old
In her face there Is not wrinkle-not a
line. There is not thread of silver in her
ebon hair, and her large, dark eyes are as
brilliant as those of a young girl
Nine. Carnot strives to be the best
dressed woman in France, and with Felix,
her favorite couturiere, she has daily
consultations. Her desire to be well
dressed is not passion for dress,
but a wish to do every thing in
keeping with her position. The gown she
wore at the opening of the exposition was
original, expensive and unobtrusive-a red
ingote of dark blue satin over petticoat of
old rose, yelled by priceless point de Venise,
the French colorS IN quiet tones.

Respectable white People Engage In tn
SuperstitiOus Exercises.

Respectable White People Engage In the
SuperstitiOus Exercises.
According TO the Picayune the papers Of
New Orleans recently contained q nara
tive of local events which may well excite
the alarm and establishment of our citizens.
II was nothing less than the remarkable
showing that a number of respectable
white women are accustomed to engage
with negroes In their degrading and dsnor,
alizing voodoo superstitious exercises.
Ten white women Of asserted respecta-
bility, who have certainly never before fig
ure3 In the criminal annals, but are de-
clared TO be reputable and yirtuous, were
in the police court as prisoners They had
been arrested while engaged in q voodoo
dance with number Of negro men, under
the direction of a negro who poses as
physician and holds, as he claims, q license
from the mayor TO peddle medicines. The
women, several Of whom are said 70 be
young and handsome, were found by the
police engaged with the men in fantastic
dance Ia a secluded house In the rear OF the
city. an parties were arrayed in costumes
which were conspicuous chiefly BY the
scantiness OF the clothing.
These white women were not residents Of
the neighborhood, but were drawn from To-
calities in many cases quite distant They
declared that they had assembled with nc
dream of any evil or immoral purpose, hui
solely 70 nave their ailments treated by the
doctor y Each bad come on her own errand

"And the man who was going TO build
there" continued the Ballstonian, pointing
to the abandoned foundation, "gave it up

A PULPIT MILLIONAIRE.
How DIR. Hall Grew Wealthy Preaching
Fashionable Congregation.

How DIR. Hall Grew Wealthy Preaching te
Fashionable Congregation.
A minister of the Gospel who, according
to a New York gossiper, is daily seen or
Fifth avenue taking an airing and ENJOYING
the promenade is DIR. John Hall, who ha,
made million out of the pulpit, and who il
in every sense the fashionable clergyman
Of the day. If you happen in his church or
Sunday morning and know the occupants
OF the various pews, and know also their
financial rating in Wall street, you coulc
count enough money kings to represent
an aggregate fortune of 400, 900, 900. First
and foremost in the congregation is little
old man with brownish-red beard who is
responsible for DR.. John Halls coming tc
America, for be it known that Hail is ar
1rishnlan, and like many others of that
favored land, has copious flow of choice
words. This little old man is Robert Bon.
ner. Bonner heard him in Dublin one
beautiful Sunday morning and was sc
struck by his oratory that he called on him
and invited him to come to America This
DR.. Hall did in time, and to-day he is the
leading pulpit orator of this city, with an
income ranging anywhere from SIS, 600 tc
SlOO,OOO; $4,000 is paid him as pastor of the
Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church; $4,000
more is paid him by Mr.. Bonner, or rather
his sons, for weekly contribution to their
story paper.
His wealthy congregation gives him s1O,.
COO year more in gifts, and the wealthy
young men and the wealthy papas of the
upper ten in New York pay nm magnia.
Gently for his services in marrying their
sons and daughters. He has managed by
investment to accumulate 81, 900, 600, vet he
gives literally to the poor and supports
numerous charities. There is, perhaps no
preacher in the United States who is so in
dependent as he. Like all true Irishmep,
he loves plenty of outdoor exercise, is a
good walker and believes in the good thin s
of this life. With Mr.. Bonner he frequently
bowls through Central Park, and he knows
good horse nearly as well as that expert.
He lives in gorgeous house, surrounded
by every luxury and a retinue of servants.
His library is revelation even to men who
love books, and from the stiff necked butler
who admits you at the door to the smallest
and most unimportant person in the house
there is evidence of solidity and wealth that
is encouraging to young men.who wish to
grow up in the ministry.

THE PEN. COMMISSION.
Commissions Issued to Messrs. Burnett
and Mont"ya.

The penitentiary commissioners met a,
the auditors Office in the capitol at IL
o'clock this morning, and proceeded to
carry out the provisions Of the new law
by appointing superintendent and as
sistant superintendent. Henry c. Bur.
nett, who has acted as warden for nearly
two years, was commissioned superinten.
dent for the ensuing two years, and ]. NJ.
Montoya, of Bernalillo, late chief clerk OF
the senate, was commissioned assistant
superintendent, to take the place Of the
deputy wardenship heretofore held by
Capt. John Gray. Also DR.. Il. H. Long.
will was appointed penitentiary physician
to succeed DR.. John Symington.
No other changes in the penitentiary
force are contemplated at this time, all
the subordinate officers, guards, etc..
being old employees, selected with view
to their adaptahility to perform their re.
spective duties. The commissioners
examined the superintendent estimates
for supplies and decided to advertise for
proposals for supplies to.cover the coming
six months.
The superintendent reported to the
board that there were l08 convcts in the
institution at the present time. all Of whom
would be much better off in mind and
body if furnished outdoor employment,
andit was also represented that there
was on hand in the penitentiary yards a
considerable quantity Of macadam, which
could be used in improving the streets
and grounds adjacent or leading to the
various state buildings. The commission
ers thersupon ordered that the law su-
