ANOTHER LONDON SCANDAL.
A Story Told in the Metropolitan d.
vOrce Court.

For some days London has been entertained
with another highly-spiced divorce case, which
has well illustrated the accepted truth, that
where pretty woman is in question the large
majority OF men are fools. This particular
case just decided which has been aptly christ
ened "A Story of Lady and Two Captains, -
began in that trysting place Of easy virtue, the
Burlington Arcade, where certain Capt. Lyon
OF the Life Guards met, without introduction,
fascinating lady, who called herself Mrs.
Stanhope, and who turned out to be the mis-
tress of another and wealthier captain named
Warner.
Capt Lyon, unaffected by this little detail,
as well as by the fact that the fair object of
bis affections had been leading an immoral
life ever since she was child, offered himself
IN marriage and was accepted. But here. as it
always does, came in the financial question
The now Mrs. Capt Lyon, well pleased at hay-
ing thus received the stamp of responsibility,
looked with less compacency upon giving up
the comfortable $4,000 or $4,000 Capt. Warner
had allowed her. SO she set her wits to solv-
ing the difficult problem Of having her cake
and eating it,-that is, of combining the rich
captains gold with the poor captains matri-
monlal concessions. This she succeeded in
doing, but whether with the knowledge Of the
poor captain is a question which was extern
sively ventilated in the proceedings
What brought matters to a crisis was the
action of Il certain tradesman named Pickett
when, in the short space of eight months, he
had catered to Mrs. Lyons vanity to the ex-
tent OF 800 worth of dresses. Mr.. Pickett
had been paid on previous occasions by Capt.
Warner, and these particular dresses were
entered to his account Pickett not having
heard OF the marriage with Lyon he at first
brought the suit against Warner. He failed
to recover the money and then sued Lyon.
Mrs Stanhope, or Warner, or Lyon tried to
help the costumer as we'll as her paramount
by asserting that her husband knew of the
Warner pay it She further declared thai
Capt. Warner had continued his relations with
her since her marriage, and that Capt Lyon,
her husband, was perfectly we'll aware OF this
| state of affairs

THE KAISER IN RUSSIA.
Emperor William Welcomed by GA
Alexander and the Czarina.

The German emperor arrived at Revel. Rus
STA, yesterday afternoon The car and czarina
| arrived at Narva by special train from St
Petersburg this morning and were received at
the station by the clerical and civil authorities
while the people who had assembled to witness
the royal arrival were kept in the background
and out of the station. Bread and salt were
offered to both the car and czarina az sign
OF the good will entertained for them by the
people Of the town. Her imperial majesty was
given magnificent bouquet Of rare flowers in
golden holder thickly set with precious
| stones.
There were very few policemen in uniform
| to be seen in any Of the streets. but the city
| ls swarmlng With detectives in plain clothes.
Their majesties were driven to the Villa
Palouzeff, the residence Of one OF the great
est manufacturers OF the empire who is also
| banker and one Of the cZar's secretaries
| This villa has been transformed into a
perfect paradise by the combination Of exotic
plants and flowers, which have been specially
brought from Paris and Nice. by the collection
| OF works OF art, and every thing that is beau
I tiful and rich that money can purchase The
| house has been recently enlarged i'll order to
| provide sufficient accommo dation for their
majesties, and arrangements have been made
| to place thousand horses and two hundred
carriages at the disposal of the car and the
kaiser.
The Grand Duke Alexis. the care brother
arrived early in the morning in command of Il
heet OF twenty-one iron-clads. They had on
| board the Kaiser's Wyborg regiment, OF which
| his majesty was made colonel short time ago
This regiment together with the st. Peters
burg Guards, will act as the special body guard
| during the stay of their majesties and will be
| under the command of the Grand Duke Vladi-
mir, another brother of the car. There was
no great reception of the Kaiser or of Prince
Henry and the Prince of saxc-Allenburg, who
were with him. On the arrival of the yacht
the yards OF the ships, however were manned
and salute was fred. while the band played
the national anthem. The official reception
occurred at Narva. where the German imperial
party arrived at O'Clock.
The kaiser's journey from Revel to Narva
was regular triumphal procession. All along
the line of the railroad the people assembled
and cheered loudly as the train passed them,
while all the stations through which it passed
were galy decorated with flags and flowers.
Whom Emperor William landed at Revel he re-
celved deputation of German residents and
afterward inspected the Vibourg regiment. the
officers Of which presented him with bread and
salt on platters carved for the occasion by
soldiers. The emperor addressed the regiment
briefly in Russian and the troops responded
with cheers

ANNEXED TO THE CONGO STATE.
1t Extends Its Southern Border to the
Head Streams of the Zambesi.

The Congo State has annexed the kingdom
OF the Muata Yamvo, south of the present
boundary OF the state. Scores of years before
any one knew exactly where the great country
OF the Muata Yamvo was it was vaguely mapped
as lying around somewhere in the interior.
Natives coming to the coast said the Muato
Iamvo was exceedingly powerful and Landed it
over very big country. One geographer tried
10 determine approximately the place of the
great king residence. Negroes said it took so
many days to reach the coast and that the sun
was In certain direction from them as they
travelled Using this and other data the geog-
rapher marked the probable site of Muato
lamvo's chief town on his map. It was not
proven for many years that he had placed the
whole country several hundred miles too far
north.
The official title of the ruler is the Muata
1amvo, and his country. which is about as large
as Germany, is called Lunda. When the
boundaries OF the Congo State were fixed COM
paratlyely little was known about the country.
Two German travellers were then the only
white men who had seen the great king His
power WAS said to be so great that il he sent a
messenger hundreds Of miles inviting one OF
his chiefs to promptly kill himself the royal
command was cheertully and at once obeyed.
The Congo State decided that 1t was not
anxious to meddie with this powerful person.
and so the whole of Lunda was excluded from
the territories OF the state. This is the reason
that the southern boundary of the state has
such an exceedingly eccentric appearance. II
the Congo State made an appendage of Lunda
1t was feared that the tail would waggle the
dog II his majesty saw fit to make trouble.
One more white man has since visited the
Muata lamvo. He was the Portuguese Car
valho, and it was understood that he had Sc
cured treaty with the Muata Yamvo placing
the country under PortuSars protection. Por-
tuSal, however, seems to have let the matter
drop without doing anything.
Meanwhile enemies Of the Muata Yamvo
have raided far into his country and carried
away many slaves. HIS vassas have learned
to defy him, and in many ways he has been
shorn OF II great deal of his strength. Now the
Congo State improved the opportunity to rec
MY Its boundary and gobble up Lunda. No
announcement has been made of any expedi-
ton going to Lunda for this purpose and it
Is not yet known how it was all brought about.
