NEW MAST FOR VALKYRlE.
Her Crew on the Majestic, Which
Is Due TO-Dny.

Lord Dunravens yacht NGlkyrie Is now
moorel alongside Of the schooner yacht
Brunhilda In the Erie Basin, waiting the
arrival OF Capt. Crantleld and his crew,
who are aboard the Majestic. due to-day.
Nalkyrie is TO receive new mast,
which Is 90 feet in height, to accom-
moddte the yawl rig which will carry her
across the Atlantic. She will be fitted
with a short topmast and bowsprit and
an extra short topmast.
August Belmont said this morning that
Nigilant had not yet been sold. He
would rot discuss the generally believed
reDOrt that James Gordon Bennett is
practically the owner OF the American
Cup-dcfender, hut II Is now accepted in
yachting circles that this is true, and
many people still have strong hopes that
there will be an ocean race between Val
kyrie and Nigilant
IT has been SJlnted out that Valkyrie's
racing spars have been sent TO England,
land that therefore she could not take part
in such n contest. Yachtsmen say, how
ever that a cutter such as Nalkyne
would not venture to sea trimmed as she
was In last Autumn's contests, ami they
still believe Lord Dunravcns British
pride and Mr.. Hennetts sporting blood
will bring about the race.

Drinking from II Lndy's Shoe.

In London, a century ago. It was 40
uncommon practice on the part OF the
fast men" to drink bumpers to the
health of a lady out of her shoe. The
.Garl of Cork relates an incident OF this
kind, and to carry the compliment still
further. he states that the shoe was
ordered to be dressed and served up for
supper The cook set himself seriously
to work upon 1t; he pulled the upper
part, which was of fine damask, into fine
shreis and tossed II up into a ragout,
minced the sole, cut the wooden heel
into thin slices, fried them in batter and
placed them round the dish for garnish.
The company testified their affection for
the lady by eating heartily of this ex-
quislte impromptu." Within the last
score of years, at a dinner OF Irish
squIres, the health Of a beautiful girl.
whose feet were as pretty as her face.

Albany defeats the Democratic ticket

New Jersey follows the lead Of New

The Cxarina.

The Czar!na constantly accompanies
her husband in his rides and drives. 1t
Is said that she thinks her presence is a
defense from Nlhllists. Certainly she
knows that a shot aimed at him might
reach her But one of the PLEASANT st
things to read about her is the notherly
devotion TO the moral welfare of her
children. In this she Is an example to all
mothers. She allows no governess, but
employs teachers, who. coming for a
few hours a day and those days not con-
| secutive, have not time to make a last
| ing impression on the moral nature of
her children, as would enc employed con-
stantly. She is very small. and the con-
