gagged to the late MISS ADELE GRANT.
Lord Garmoyle, afterward Earl of
Cairns, but upon his name being asso-
ciated with that of an English actress,
the engagement was broken.
She is to be countess, nevertheless,
and, what is more, one of unusual
prominence, for although her husband
is an earl, there are earls and there are
earls. her future earl being tie seventy
third peer in England. The import
ance of this number will be realized
when it is known that the Bradley
Martins earl is the 2O0th. The earl
dom OF Essex was created in the year
1861. whereas that of Craven is quite
modern, and dates only from 1901.
This being the case, the future countess
of Essex will take precedence over the
countess of Craven. On the other
hand, the former Miss Cornelia Martin
is more fortunate than Miss Grant, for
should the first ever have son he will
succeed to the title of earl, whereas no
son that the countess of Essex may
ever have will enjoy this honor, unless
Algernon George De We're, the son of
the late earl of Essex by his first wife,
should die, He is now a lad of 10

Ludwig's throne chair was to have
been Worlds Fair exhibit, but like
every other extravaganza of its de-
parted owner, proved but an element
of discord among all who had anything
to do with it. As a consequence it now

IT stands amid mountains of tapestry
and can easily be seen. when in posi-
ton, by any visitor. The char itself
is of wood, gold; ivory and silver. So
roomy is it that two Queen Victorias
could find place there. despite the crit
icism which attributes to William Dean
Howells an intention of calling his
forthcoming book 1.-The British
Throne" because the royalty upon it
is SO large and fat.
When it was represented that her
majesty had complained of the hard
oak and ivory seat as irksome to royal
flesh, Mr.. Labouchere expressed his
willingness to allow the price of
feather bolster.
The continental monarchies have
been far more liberal in providing
throne chairs for their soyereigns than
the English people. This is. perhaps,
because only British royalty must give
an account of how its subjects money
is spent.
Emperor William, upon assuming his
prerogatives, gave orders for the con-
struction of two elaborate throne
chairs One was for the emperor OF
Germany, the other for the king of
Prussia. Hardly was the work of MAX
ing them begun than the young ruler
changed his mind and decided that the
paternal seats would do.
The present imperial throne chair of
the empire of Germany seems never
to have been intrinsically appraised,
but 500, 900 is hardly an exaggerated
statement of what it and its present
appurtenances have cost.
Those who have seen the car of all
the Russias sitting scepter in hand, on
his great white throne, agree in pro-
nouncing the sight one of the few inn
pressive things connected with the
nineteenth century royalty. The car,
being an absolute despot. can not be
said to have an official residence for
the chair of state. Wherever he sits is
| the throne of Russia. But in the
palace of St Petersburg there is an
! apartment in which his imperial
majesty's advisers assemble on such
| occasions as it suits him to call them
together officially. 1t is described as
an immense marble hall. with an in
closure at one end, vaguely suggestive
of cathedral altar.
The thrones of other lands follow
the precedents of time and royalty.
In Austria Francis Joseph sits in state
upon the arms of the Hapsburgs which
decorate the seat of the imperial chair.
In Italy there is an elaborate throne
etiquette, but the object itself has NOT
much of an air. There is another throne
in Rome-that of the sovereign pontiff.

Previous to the beginning of this

disguised that nature should have
neglected TO construct an Antarctic

maps the great mainland of the south
crn seas, which had figured SO long on
their charts.
