The Lecture Flood in Gotham.

On days when neither mission schools

tention all womankind that can rake
and scrape five dollars together buys a
ticket for Mr.. Is, Mrs. IS or Miss
's course of lectures. If on any fine
sunny morning New York should sud
denly be stricken with silence the voice
of at least 500 lecturers, both male and
female, proclaiming on 500 different sub
jects, would confound and astonish u.s.
They all make money, too, though half
of them scarcely know hawk from a
handsaw. and talk fluently to us on no
less threadbare subjects than Ibsen,
Browning and Shakespeare.
We go to hear them, nevertheless, and

along the sidewalk rest assured Mesdames

and inwardness of The Dolls House"
All the women lecturers get Mrs. Cleve-
land, Mrs e. d. Morgan, Mrs. Moses
Taylor and Mrs. Marshall O. Roberts to
put their names to the card of lady
patronesses. and after that Tom, Dick
and Harrv'a wife would rather resign all
hopes Of several new spring bonnets than
net pay their way into the same com
pany.
They very carefully attend every one
of Walter Damrosch's Wagner lectures

cause Mrs. Every body Else who is any

Her Aim.

The scene is the drawing room of a
charming woman who has made
knowledge of American history compat-
ible with fashion. A lecture thereon, set
down for half past o'clock, did not be-
gin until A, owing to the late arrival of
the greater part of the audience-all pet
ticoats. A few women, however, paid
the lecturer and hostess the compliment
of being on time. One of these earlies
protested against an unwarrantable de-
lay, whereupon young person looked
at this grumbler from head to foot, say
ing: I'm society we do not try to be
punctual Our aim is to be late"
Then she changed her seat. The grand
mother Of this young person did most of
her own work, and hved-never mind.
The rich relative to whom this young
person owes her present position made his
money by the virtue his degenerate
scion despises.
No society is fit to live that has not
brains enough to have good manners.
Punctuality is the essence of good man
ners, founded on the Christian doctrine
of doing unto others as you'd be done

We who were lovers so warm and near
When springs young buds were growing,
Walk today through the woodlands drear
With the dead leaves round us blowing.
Here is the path where my timid arm
First dared in its clasp to fold her,
And here by the clear streams songfui charm
Her cheek first touched my shoulder.
And yonder-what passionate dream is this
What breath through the silence sobbingy
The pulsing thrill of an endless kiss,
Or the sound of hearts wild throbbing?
We walk as Of old but we walk apart,
Through the well known hooks and spaces
We stand no more with heart pressed to heart
In the lonely beautiful places
But / follow mutely her footstep slow
Through the cool bright autumn weather,
Because-we were married six months ago
And are used to being together

The New Queen Of Hawaii.

Advices from Hawaii confirm the pre-
vious reports that the new queen is pur-
suing an independent course, and that
she has surprised all adversaries by her
promptitude and energy in dealing with
political business. After her success in
overcoming the obstructive ministers
who were in Office at her accession, and
securing a cabinet of her own selection,
she proceeded TO make such other official
appointments us indicated her determi-
nation to exercise her full constitutional
authority By her diplomatic tact she
has put an end to various intrigues, and
by her decision of character she has
overcome obstacles that endangered her
reign.
Queen Liliuokalani has recently shown
her ability to carry on negotiations with
other powers. She has held conferences
with her cabinet regarding the new com
mercial treaty with the United States,
and, if the reports from Honolulu are to
be credited she has shown that she has
her own ideas as to the method of set
Ting the questions at issue.
The many manifestations of independ-
ence by the queen have COMPOUNDED the
obstructionists, whose tactics are not to
be disregarded But all Hawaiians are
now agreed that Liliuokalani, who was
formerly thought to be feeble willed, has
turned out to be woman Of decided
character. New York Sun.

Col Thomas, one time member Of con-
gress, was in the city recently, and among
tales of the old days told the following about
Thaddeus Stevens.
"Thaddeus Stevens was sitting in his office
one day with few friends, when in walked
an old lady, wearing a poke bonnet, blue
goggles. and carrying a green alpaba UNI
brela She looked around the room as if in
search of some one, and then said solemnly;
" 'Can you tell me where to find Thaddeus
Stevens, the Apostle of LibertyT
"'Old Thad' blushed.
"'rm Thaddeus Stevens" he replied very
shortly.
Are You Thad-e-us Stevens, the Apostle
of LibertyF

"The old lady dropped her parasol, made a
rush towards Stevens to kiss him, and when
he held her Off, she said:

Gus Stevens, the Apostle of Liberty, and to
take home with me a lock of his hair

wig, handed it to her, and said:

A few very fortunate society people
are rejoicing in aperfume which cannot
be duplicated unless one can capture a
Stanley. This famous scent is called
lily Of the Nile, and it was brought to
this country by Mrs. Stanley, who had
the perfume extracted from the natural
lilies as plucked from the borders of the
Nile. As mark of special favor Mrs
Stanley has bestowed bottle upon IA
vored mortal here and there. An enter
prising fancy goods dealer has duplicated
the perfume as nearly as may be, and
has dipped seaweed into its depths until
a grass was produced that was fragrant
and very like the real lily of the Nile.
The grass was then woven into mats
and put on sale at big price for laying
into the bottoms of bureau drawers and
trunks. News.

A very handsome woman now attract
ing attention in English society is lady
whose title would appear to indicate that
her lineage extended back at least to the
crusaders. She is fine figure to look
upon, her manners are faultless, her
carriage stately, her pride immense. She
is always a conspicuous figure in London
drawing rooms. and the society papers
have as much to say of her as though
she were royal princess, yet she will not
be found further back than the last edi-
ton of Burke.
She is Lady Iveagh, wife Of Edward
Guinness, manufacturer of beer. 1t is .
strange rule that in England a success
full brewer is regarded with affection by
the sovereign, and may dine with her
after he has become wealthy. No other
tradesman or manufacturer is allowed a
similar privilege nor is ever ennobled.-

AS we pointed ont over two months

bound to sweep over this country, and
now that it has come to abide with us

that it has developed into a craze or rage
which always wears itself out from its

her success as an amateur photographer
