Two New London girls-Miss Lizzie
Goodwin and Miss Nettie Allen-aston-
ished the town the other morning by
swimming the Thames river. Both are
expert and graceful swimmers. They
plunged into the broad stream on its
Groton side, directly beneath New Lon
don's drawbridge, the largest in the
world, came swiftly across it, distance
Of quarter Of mile, and landed at
the western abutment. They had a
Leander along with them, and though
he is strong swimmer he reached the
abutlnent behind the girls.
The Thames river at the place where
the girls crossed it is by no means as
wide as the Hellespont; still its current
is strong and deep, and the two fair
swimmers have no doubt they could
equal Byron's famous performance.
They were not Ut all wearied by their
feat.-New Lo.don Conn Letter.

The Countess of Aberdeen has written
paper for an English magazine in
which she tells why she is "A politician
She says in substance that it is mys-
terry to her how any woman can think it
anything else but her plain duty to in
:erest herself in politics. She further
remarks: IL think we may say that we
shall find that the objections proceed
principally from two sources-a very
partial idea OF what a woman's life
should be, and a low estimate Of poll
tics. But we believe that there are
grand principles which may, and which
should inspire the government Of the
people, by the people, for the people;
and we believe implicitly in their power
when properly applied to reform and en-
noble and uplift
"Any Of us who know anything Of
the lives of the poor know how the so
cial questions which we discuss back
ward and forward are living, pressing
realities 10 them. Questions about edu-
cation, labor, the sweating system, Ii
censing, the housing of the poor, the
workhouse system, are all sternly real
to them, and especially 30 to the women,
and they are affecting them day by day
We must so believe in our politics that
we shall both believe and act as if it
must deal with these questions"

Mime. Blanche Roosevelt has an inter-
esting personality, as this little sketch Of
her career shows:
Her first volume was a sketch Of her
self as a singer. TO this succeeded Il
volume concerning Longfellow, whose
"Masque of Pandora she brought out in
Boston as an opera with music by Alfred
Cellier The failure Of the opera gave in
teresting glimpses Of the amiability of the
poets character which the singer and
writer disclosed in her book. Her next
volume was a sumptuous life Of Gustave
Dore, for which the artists family fur
nished materials, supplementing the
writer's acquaintance with Dore. Nine.
Roosevelt occupies unique position in
the artistic world of Paris Her failure
as a singer she frankly avowed, and with
smiling courage she took mp her pen
Her beauty Of face remarkable in its
regular, sculptured delicacy, united to a
lively imagination and unusual huency
of speech in Italian and French, as well
as in English, has made her a welcome
guest in many circles. She was petted
by Victor Hugo, on terms of sarcasm
and repartee with Arsene Houssaye,
rapturously sdoring and ardored Of
VERDICT whose Requiem when it
was brought out at Milan. Size wrote
descriptively of its influence, / walked
home afterward in state of comatose."
There have long been rnmors Of drama
TO be written in collaboration with
Sardou. The manifest result, however,
is the volume just brought out, "Vic-
torien Sardou: A Personal Study" She
is the first American authoress to be
decorated by the French academy, of
which she is an officer, and quoting
from the gallant NJ. Houssaye, "She is
lovely with every loveliness; her profile
one that might have been designed by
Apelles or Xeuxis."

Cav CrenIe Plaisls.

If you have any friends in New Or
leans ask them to send you few yards
of the gay bandanna plaids in French
ginghams, which we do not find in our
northern shops. They are in rich creole
colors, combining soft reds and yellows,
which seem TO blend one into the other,
and they make the prettiest kind of
blouse waists. The only decoration they
require is gold studs or buttons down
the front and gold links in the cuffs.
The utility of these plaids does not end
here, for they likewise serve as perfectly
charming covers for Longing pillows,
with gathered fnlls Of the same all
