ROMANCE OF A NEW DUCHESS.

Many Americans will no doubt be in
terested in the new Duchess of Suther-
land. She is a lovely girl, in fact, she
is by many considered the most beauti-
full woman in England, not even except
ing the famous Lady Brooke, who is re
lated to her. The Duchess of Suther-
land is one of three pretty sisters. Lady
SybiI St. Clair .Erskine, the eldest, was
married to the Earl of Westmoreland
last year, and the youngest, Lady Al
gela, is as yet, "free maid"
There is quite little romance attached
to the incident which made Lady Mill
cent St. Clair Erskine, Marchioness of
Stafford aud now the Duchess Of Suth
erlaud. At dinner party given by her
mother, Lady ROsslyn, it was discovered
that the unlucky thirteen were at the
table, and the Lady MilIiceut was sent
for from the school room, as the guests
present were just superstitiOus enough to
fear an evil result. The young gill had
not as yet been presented, but that did
not prevent the Marquis OF Stafford from
falling head over heels 10 love with her
at sight and marrying her shortly after

Many Millions Of Visitors.

II is now nearly forty years since the
Queen, with the Prince Consort, several
foreign royalties aud a brilliant court,
declared the Crystal Palace open, with
the aspiration that il might "eleyate aud
instruct, as we'll as delight and amuse,
all classes" Very rarely, says the Lon
don Telegraph, have the expressions OF
ROYAL or official optimism been more
fully realized. Nearly ell the soverelgns
OF Europe and dusky po'entates OF Asia
and Africa have shared, with the poor
est children OF the slums, the week day
and Sunday schools, the great trade
benefit societies and The "custodians Of
law and ORDER" the delights CT Syden-
ham. It's estimated that some 20, 900,
900 Of visitors have entered the palace
since its opening, fact that would be
more accurately expressed by saying that
that number of visits has been paid.
Either phrase, however, really under
states the matter, the calculations in re-
spect Of seasDu ticket-holders having
been made on different systems at differ
ent times.

The Orange Free State.
Fair

The African Republic known as the
Orange Free State was originally occu
pied by the Huguenot ezies from Ho!-
land, Flanders aud France, and. like
many other lands, owes its FIRST settle
ment to the spirit Of religious intolerance
which drove dssenters odt Of Europe.
Following are few leading facts con-
corning it;
The Orange Free State, the smaller Of
the republics of Beers or Dutch peasant
settlers Of South Africa, touches Grin
oualand on the northwest, Natal and
Basutolsnd on the southeast. the Trans
vaal on the north aud Cape Colony on
the south. Its independence was de-
clared February 90, 1854, aud a consti-
tuition adopted soon after. 1t is gov
erned by President, chosen for five
years, and A Popular Assembly Of lfty.
seven.
The State contains an estimated area
of Al, 500 square miles and total popu-
lation of 2O7, 5O3, 77,7l6 being whites
and the remainder, 1919, 1877, natives. It
has about eighty churches, the Dutch
Reformed sect chiefly prevailing. Tnere
are seventy-one government schools.
TIE capital is Boemfontein. JUS
tice ia administered according to the
Roman Dutch law. There are no from
tier defenses or Notifications, and only
a small battery at the capital, but II, 3Sl
burghers are quickly available for bear
ing arms at need. Tne country consists
of undulating plains sfforiiug good
grazing, so that besides the growing OF
wheat the inhabitants largely engage in
the raising of horses, cattle, sheep, goats
aud ostriches. Diamonds, garnets aud
other precious stones are found, as well
as gold. Tdere arc also very valuable
coal mines. The exports and imports,
which all have to pass through the Cape
and Natal ports, are estimated respec-
lively a. So, 100000 aud $40, 900, 900.
Tie principal exports are wool, hides,
diamonds aud ostrich feathers. Tne
telegraph connects Bloemfonteln with
Natal and Cape Colony, aud there are
extensive railways aud good government
roads.
Many of the rich resources OF the Free
state still remain to be cultivated, aud
emigration thither is now steadily on the
increase, mainly from Germany and
E lgland.-New York Mail and Express.

Put into a stone pot quantity OF
raspberrles and mash them thor,
oughly. Add to the pulp cider-yine-
gar enough to cover it well. Let it
stand IN the sun all day, and over
night in cool cellar. Stir frequent
ly during this time; then strain the
juice, replace it in the jar, and put
in the same quantity Of fresh berries
as at first. Treat them in the same
way as the first, by standing in the
sun by day and in the cellar over
night. Strain this, and add to each
quart of juice one pint Of water;
mix the water aud juice thoroughly,
and strain; then, for every three
pints of this liquid add five pounds
of best white sugar. Place this over
a fire and stir until the sugar is all
dissolved; then heat slowly to the
boiling point, Swimming carefully
all the time. AS soon as it is fairly
boiling, take from the fire and strain
again, bottle while hot, and cover
the corks with sealing-wax. A few
spoonfuls Of this preparation in a
glass of water make a most delicious
and refreshing beverage. Ledger

the feet of the players. To touch it with
the hand was to lose all bets.
Tripping, crowding, and all the rough
work OF our footballists were permitted
to prevent an opponent from reaching or
throwing the ball. Runners were per-
misted to cut across the valley at a jog
trot and so be ready to receive the ball
as it came along aud then squirt with it.
Umpires and judges we're stationed I'll
along the circuit to see that the ball was
kept along the designated track. By 7
o'clock the moon came up and the valley
was nearly as light as day. Yells as
fierce as any that greeted the soldiers at
Pine Ridge or an audience at Yale greeted
the bronze Stage of Guachiocbic as he
hurled the wooden sphere through the
plaza, 100 feet ahead OF the ball from
Zapuri on the first trip around the valley.
1t was impossible to sleep, the enthu-
siasm was too great, as we gathered
around the camp fire and listened to the
disputes OF the rival factions, and list
ened to the shouts from the players afar
off, and as they drew near greeted them
with yells that left US hoarse for several
days afterward.
Far into the forenoon they ran, but
in a little less than fourteen hours the
balls had made the prescribed number
of trips around the valley, and four run
ners on one side aud three on the other
were coming at the top OF their speed
over the last three miles OF grassy lawn
toward the goal. A line was drawn in
the dust across the street at the edge of
the plaza and the crowd gathered back
waiting the victors.
On they came, and as they rushed
toward us it was impossible to say which
would win, but as one runner from each
side reached the hills, one failed to
catch his fairly on his foot while going
at full speed and his throw was weak;
but the other, catching his fairly, gave
great bound and twisting his leg as if 1t
were an arm, hurled the ball fair and
square over the line aud over our heads.
Zapuri had won by hundred feet.
How the crowd yelled, aud how We
yelled with them, and how the reeking
vic.ors were praised aud petted as they
sat down to divide their winnings.
Soon after short race only about ten
miles was laid out around the town aud
a race run by the girls of the two pueb.
los.
How they did run and how they sent
that ball spinning, the bronze Dianas OF
Guachiochic winning and thereby soften
ing the defeat OF their dusky brothers
and lovers. II some Of those interested
in trials of speed and endurance want
some record heaters, both in endurance
and squirting for short distances, they
can do no better than to give some
Tauri Mauris a chance to see the Worlds
Fair.

THE CLAN TARTAN CRAZE.

Next tothe music hall craze in Lon
don comeslthe pursuit Of the clan tartan
for home and street costume. Il is
sometimes almost terrifying to meet
London womenin the street, clothed as
they are in enormous plaids, which ac-
ceutuate all their worst points and are
aggressively loud. TO be sure London
is a gloomy place at this season, and,
seen through fog, the tartan is not so
1aspiug to the nerves, but even the,pret-
test women and of the best fern have
their dark cloth, tailor-made gownswith
huge sleeves of the Murray, Argyle, aud
occasionally even of the royal Stuart
plaid. The Princess Marie, OF Edin-
burgh, who is just now preparing her
trousseau, has two stunning tartan cos
tunes of Scottish manufacture, but this
will hardly give them the'cachet of good
