Notes For the Ladies.

NEW YORK, Oct. 23.-It is rumored that tho old fashioned bertha is to be very fashionable this winter. If so, the contents of old chests will be overhauled and rare bits of real lace brought to light Happy girl whose grandmother had a fondncss for laces!
 In using n French coffeepot the bag should be scalded every day; otherwise the flavor of the coffee will be destroyed. The best combination of coffee to use in a French pot Is thrce- quarters Java to one quarter Mocha.
 Long velvet coats are to be the fashion for the coming Winter. some of the cx- treme styles reach to the bottom of the dress, but the thrce-quartcr length will be most worn.
 Never powder the nose tI have a photo graph taken. White mag lifies.
 Nearly all women keep mcmorandums It is bad habit. The memory, like any other organ of the body, becomes rusty with disusc, but stronger the more 1t is exercised.
 Every woman who wants to be in the style parts her hair in the middle. Bangs are altogether out of date, only a short, light fringe being worn. The new color in stationery for fin de sieclc women is the Prince of Wales gray. Sealing wax of the same shade is used by the laS'iutous- Ahe siIe, toot is c&tTSiiler the sheet of paper being inches by and the envelope 614 inches by 41&. The season for oranges Is coming, and this Is a delicious way to serve them: Paro with q sharp knife, rcmoving the under | coating of white. Keep in a cool place until ready to serve; then sprinkle with powdered sugar. The ncatest way to eat | oranges served like this is to put fork | through the center and slice down tho sides with knife. This preserves all the | juice, and none of the flavor is lost as in eating with a spoon.

 Tho Grand Duke Alexis undeniably went through q ccrcmony of marFiIsr- IL was only on that condition that Mile. Shuukuwski consented la fly with him to France from the house of her uncle. the Baron dc RrucCrn. then minister of finance of Russia. But, accor,Iing to Russian law, tho sanction of the cxar not having been previously obtained to the union, 1t was ipse facto invalid.
 The poor girl did not realize this until some two years aftcrward, when Count Shouvaluw took advantage of a temporary absence of the grand duke from Sicc to call at the imperial villa and to point out to Its fair occupant that she was regarded by the world at largo not as the morga- hattie wife, as she fondIy imagined herself to be, but merely as the mistress of the grand duke. What elsc took place between the count, who filled at the time the place of chief of the dreaded Third section of the cZar's chancclleric, and the ex-maid of honor no one can say. But that same evening she left Nice for Venice. taking her baby along with her, and. it may bc added. left of her own free will-that is to say. merely in deferenco to the counts arguments, for. of course. he could not employ furcc, bcing in forrign country
 
 ShouvaInw proccSCiCd to Paris, whCre he saw the Grand Duke Alexis and prcsum- ably informed him of what he had done by order of the cZar. do not know how the grand duke took the matter.
 By some it Is asserted that his love was already on the wauc and that he remained comparatively indifferent to the turn which affairs had taken. while hy others 1t Is claimed that hc was hearthrokcn. and al was immediately after this that the grand duke left for the United States without re- turning Ia Russia. Today he is just as much infatuated with tho mUrganatic wife nf his cousin, Duke Eugene of LGuch- tenberg, as he was with Mile. Shoukow- ski. The duchess, n remarkably beautiful woman, is the sister of the famous General Skubelcff, who died under such mysterious circumstances at Moscow some years ago. She is quite as ambitious as was her brilliant brother and does not despair os becoming some day the wife of the grand duke.
 Meanwhile their intimacy is the talk of every capital in Europe. and no matter where the grand duke may happen to be, either at Baden, Paris, Niehy, Nice or Biarritz, you may take 1t for granted that | the Duchess Zenaide and her entirely su- perfiuuus and mediocre husband are in the | immediate vicinity.

 VIENNA. Oct i3.-Do you retain any recollection of the Grand Duke Alexis of Russia, ,who spent several months in the United States during the administration of President Grant and was so rcyaily en- tertained that he prolonged his stay In America far beyond the date originally set for hls dcpartures Well, young Count Alexis Belewsky, who has just passed through here with his bride on his way to Biarritz, where he Is to spend his honey moon, Is the very image of the grand duke as tho latter was at the time of his trans atlantic visit. I had an opportunity Of re- marking this resemblance at dinner gfv- en to the newly married couple by a mcm- bcr of the Russian embassy the night be- fore last at Sacher's. but was not aston ished when I recalled to mind tho fact that the relations between the grand duke and tho count arc of tho closest nature pos sible-namely, those of father and son Cor Count Belewsky Is tho only child of shat elandcstine marriage of the czar's sailor brother to their mothers beautiful maid Of honor. Mile. ShoukOwski, which n quarter of n century ago was the talk of Europe, and not alone of Europe, but also of America as well, since 1t was well known a, .hc time that the czar had sent his fayurite son to the United States in tho hope that the loyeliness of Uncle Sam's daughters might have the effect of effactng from the memory of the grand duke the piquant features of his Muscuyite charmer
 ltwould seem that the cmperor's object was attained. for Alexis never again set eyes upon Mile. Shoukowski, notwith- standing the infatuation which he had dis played prcvious to his crossing the Atian- tic. This did not. however, prevent the grand duke from taking n very affection ate intcrnst in the boy which she had borne him. and when, after residing for several years at Plume. an A ustrian seaport on one of the lovcliest portions of the Adriatie shores, she migrated to DrcstiCn and be- came the wife of colonel of Saxon cav airy he took the boy away from her and brought him up from thcnceforth at his own expense in Russia
 Just what the legal status of young Count Bclcwsky Is 1t is difficult to say. True, the czar has conferred upon him the title of count, while tho grand duke has announced his intention of making him heir to his entire fortune. Moreover. hG holds the rank of captain of tho Chcvalier garles of the empress. Is an aid-de-c camp of his uncle the Grand Duke Scrgius. governor general of Moscow, and has now become the grand son in law of the famous Princess Lizc TrOubctzkoi. who during the lifetime of M. Thicrs exercised so pre- dominant an influence over the dcstinics of France.
 But, for all that, it looks very much as if the count were illegitimate and unable.

How to Wave the Hair as at Present
 Worn.
 The hair must no longer be crimped, but must be laid over the head in large natural looking waves. The secret lies in the fact that the iron is no longer ap- piled to the tip of the tress, and the hair wound over it, but tho tress. of the hair itself is wound around the iron, beginning as near the scalp as it is com fortable to hold the heated iron. The parting of the hair. which proved so unpopular when it was first introduced, has been accepted chiefly by those per sons of Madonna type of face, for they can bear this severe style of hairdress- ing. The delicate fringe of curls which so many maidens still continue to wear is too becoming to the majority of American girls to be driven out of fash ion.

 ABOUT PINE HILL.-Two weeks ago we received an invitation from representative citizens of Pine Hill to come over on Wednesday night of last week and deliver our great speech on Arizona as she is and her claims to be admitted to statehood. The invitation was accepted and the event advertised, and we were on hand at the appointed hour. While 1t was plainly ad- vertised that we were to speak in the in- terests of the territory and present facts and figures to prove that congress should grant her petition for admission, large number of persons attended the meeting under a misapprehension. Some of these expected to hear n comic lecture, and oth- CTS looked for n religious exhortation. They were disappointed, of course, and of course they raised a row about 1t.
