doubtful If she will ever return again. She
also gave mp her house on Sixty-t:fth street
where the general lived most of the time
be was in New York and where he was
taken with his fatal complaint.
One of the most interesting sojourners
ut the United States hotel is Mr.. Justice
Blatchford, Of the supreme court. He is
man of most methodical habits, and one
days history with him is very much the
same as another. He is as regular IN has
movements as clockwork. Every morning
at he may be seen leaving his hotel and
walking to his favorite spring. Promptly
at he has breakfast, and from that until
lunch time he devotes TO study or looking
over briefs that he will have to pass upon.
For a few hours every afternoon
he INDUCES in his favorlte game
of whist. He has for his partner
Mr.. John Jay, Of New York. They
do not always play against the same per-
sons, but usually one of the opponents Is
Mr.. Stranahan, who is known as the FIRST
citizen of Brooklyn" 1t is very seldom
that the distinguished iurist and his part
ner, Mr.. Jay, are defeated at the game.
Judge Biatchford has the reputation Of
being the most skilful player among the
supreme court set. Every night, almost,
during the winter the supreme court JUS
tees meet at their respective homes and
play whist, concluding the evening wi tn
supper.
Senator A. 8. Paddock, of Nebraska,
who is the only Republican who assaulted
the Mckinley bill when 1t came up in the
Senate, 10 spending vacation here. For
hours at time he will walk the spacious
corridor OF the hotel with his head bent as
If in great meditation. His hobby seems
TO be to walk so that he will never step on
any of the seams or cracks between the
tiles of the floor. The floor ID LAID in
white and red thing, and the senator
walks so as to alternate with one foot on
the red tile and the other on the white.
If he starts out and by chance makes a
misstep and his left foot happens to touch
30 as to reach over on the white tile. he
always goes back to the end of the cor
ridor where he commenced and tries it
all over again. In the Senate he will
walk up and down the chamber so as to
always keep his feet upon certain figures of
the carpet. This popularity of his is just
as pronounced as is that of Senator Reagan,
OF Texas, who always has the floor about
his desk Uttered with paper, which he is
constantly tearing and twisting up into all
sorts of curious figures. Senator Paddock's
present ambition is to pass what is known
as the Pure Food bill, which he introduced
last session, and which, he said, would have
passed only for the blunder of Senator Nc
MILAN, who, intending to call the bill up,
erred, and had the Conger lard bill placed
on the calendar instead. The Nebraska
statesman says his bill is to prevent the
adulteration of any article that is usually
taken into the human stomach, and he
feels certain that it will pass.

ter of a train, or for the panels and iapels
of dress. This means that embroidery
is going to be still more fashionable than
it was last winter, and that the jewel sea-
son is going to continue throughout the
fall and probably also throughout the
winter.
By way of pastime, women Of taste pro-
vide themselves with pad of tracing
paper. neatly fitted over a frame, and a
fine pencil, and then, with the aid of wild
flowers, ferns, sea grasses and MOSES, they
sketch pattern for what will, in the fall,
be beautiful creation when it is made
up into lovely embroidered design for
dress.
The Princess Christian showed much
taste and deicacy of telling when she de-
signed a wedding robe for the Princess
Louise. The material of the gown was rich
white satin, and there was, OF course, an
immense court train large enough to cover
a space almost ten by twelve feet. In the
center of this immense train was large
embroidered pattern of myrtle and orange
blossoms, intertwined with purple and
white ribbons. The ribbon and the flow
ers were all exquisitely embroidered by
hand. On the back OF the tram, just
below the waist line, there was also
another bunch of flowers, extending down
larger one on the train. Similar flowers
encircled the front of the skirt and deco
rated the front and back of the bodice. 1t
was wholly impossible for the princess to
walk upon carpeted floor and drag the
train behind her, and so as soon as she had
left the stone chancel of the church it was
necessary for the maids OF honor to carry
the train behind the bride as she walked.
Many were the fans that were given to
this fortunate princess as wedding gifts.
One of them, which was entirely Of white
lace, had the following verse interviewer
in silver cord:
Louise-Aribert,
May your days be many
And your cares be few
Health, joy and happiness
One and all wish you
Another had the crest of the house of
Princess Louise and Prince Aribert, and
below was the name Louise" done in ex-
quisite scroll work.

Rise for the day is passing,
And you lie dreaming on:
The Others have buckled their sImor,
And forth to the fight are gomez
A place in the ranks awaits you,
Each man has some part to play;
The past ald the future are nothing,
In the face OF the stern today.
Rise from your dreams of the future
OF gaining some hard-tought field;
OF storIning some airy fortress,
Or bidding some giant yield.
Your future has deeds of glory.
OF honor, God grant Ii mayi
But yout arm viii never be stronger,
Or the need so great as today.
Risei II the past detains you,
Her sunshines and storms forget;
No chains so unworthy 10 hold you
As those of a vain regret;
Sad or bright, she is lifeless forever;
Cast her phantom arms away,
Nor look back save to learn the lesson
OF nobler strife today
Risel for the day is passing;
The low sound that you scarcely hear
Is the enemy marching TO battle,
Arise for the foe Is herel
Stay not 10 sharpen your weapons,
Or the hour will strike at last,
When from dreams oil a coming battle,
You may wake to find IL pastl

Last Sabbath was an excellent day, and
the 500 people who came to St. James in
the afternoon were we'll pleased with
the mueical and literary programme.
All pronounced the Musical Entertain
ment as grand success, for each did his
part perfect No fault could he found.
Yet it is said the next Sacred Concert,
which will be some Sabbath in May. will
excel last Sabbath in every way. All
who took part were highly compliment

be forgotten. ~:
The address by Lawyer McGhee was
eloquent and running over with good
advice to the race. :.
The solo by Miss Ella B. Smith was
rendered in excellent style, and many
Christians caught the true meaning of
this beautiful song, Fear Not, Thy God
is Near" and were encouraged.
Prof. Luca and Mr.. John Thompson
deserve great credit, for truly their So
los touched the hearts of all.

beautifully sung that many would have
applauded had it not been Sabbath.
Sweeter music could not have been
heard any where than at St. James last
Sabbath. The reading by Mr.. Russell.
Emusic Every where," was surely appro-
pirate for the occasion, and it was, as is
usual with Mr.. Russell, rendered in ex,
cellent style.
Many were the complin ents paid to
Mrs. f Williams for the excellent man
ner in which she presided on the organ.
It is said her playing Sabbath surpassed
that of any other occasion, and great
credit is due her. s3 IA
