winning dignity worthy In the highest
degree of her famous father.
Miss Blaine is very tall, and of slender
build. She has the large eyes OF her
father and a smile which, when brought
into play, displays a set OF remarkably
fine teeth and spreads O radiance
throughout her usually serious face.
Her conversation partakes of the bril-
liancy of her father. And her lsnowl-
edge of public affairs would put many

ice to the blush Her father Is uncom-

Tho Bright and Popular Daughter OF tho
Ex-Secretary.
ES-Secretary Blaine does not possess
all of the popularity Of the Blaine fam
lily. His daughter, Miss Hattie, has an
abundance of it in her own right. And
she deserves It. Few young ladies of
her age have been in so conspicuous a
position and acquitted themselves with
such marked success as Miss Blaine.
During the past season she has accous-
panied her fatheron all his social rounds.
and at the dinners and receptions given
ut the Blaine mansion she has played
the hostess with marked success. The
fact that she is the daughter of a most
distinguished statesman has had no i'll

An Ancient Ceremony.

The ancient ceremony of talabaraqn,
or weighing the maharaiah of Travan-
core against an equivalent weight of
gold, was performed this year with
great pomp, the present maharajah be-
ing an orthodox Hindoo and sticsler
for tradition Months before the oere-
monies his government bought a great
quantity of pure gold, the greater
part of which was converted into coin.
After presenting an elephant to the
shrine the maharajah entered the tenn
pie and mounted one of the scales, his
sword and shield being laid in his Ian.
In the other scale the newiy-struck
coins were put in by the first and sec
ond princes until the maharajah rose in
the air, the priests chanting Vedic
hymns In addition to this the band
played and the guns fired Afterward
the coin used was distributed among
about fifteen thousand Brahmins
