 The story cf the sudden evolution of an emperor which was brought back to London by the witnesses of tho Russian pageant; of grief and joy is ono of the strangest i'll tle personal histories of great rulers. Tho members of the Brit ish court and tho English correspondents who followed tho funeral party from some interesting things which it was not possible to describe i'll the dispatches which were sent homo.
 It is learned that for several days after the death of Alexander III the members of the Russian court were re- duced to despair and distraction ny the behavior of the young czar He was completely unnerved, not so much by grief at his fathers death as by his sud den encounter with the vast responsibili ties of the position. Ic became for some days shrinking, covering weakling. It was almost impossible to coax or spur him into the exercise of any of his inn perial functions. Those whose duty it was to prompt him regarding the proper state and other formalities were at their wits end, and the situation caused the greatest alarm in the court. When some simple course was urged upon him, the young emperor shrank back and begged that he be let alone. He oven whimpered when the necessity of action was pressed upon him as imperative. He moro than once burst into tears and acted more like terrified child than the ruler of an empire
 This continued for seveal days after tho arrival of the Prince of Wales and it was to him that tho officials of the Russian court finally appealed. The prince was equal to the occasion, and ill the last threo weeks ho has done more for England than the whole British for eign office would be able to accomplish ill a generation He remained constant ly by tho young emperor's sido He put heart and courage into him. Before the czar. reached St. Petersburg he was transformed. He not only became man, but began to acquire some of the dignity of his rank. He soon astonished his ad- yisers by displaying genuinely intelli gent comprehension of public affairs, with sound if not brilliant powers of judgment.
 When tho wedding day arrived, he had developed an originality and inde- pendence of opinion which further amazed those around him. Ill other words, the attack of bluo funk which at first caused tho gravest fears for his ca pacity to govern has been completely conquered London Letter.

 Two or three going away dresses for winter brides are worth describing. One which has attracted much atten- ton in the establishment where it was made is of bluet cloth with a skirt that may fairly be called the newest out. The front and side breadths are marrow at the top, but flare broadly from the knees. In the back are three godet, or umbrella gores, each narrow at the waist, but increasing tremen- dously as it hears the hem. The cut of this skirt is so perfect that the extra fullness at the bottom is disposed of in simple wavy folds, without so much as the suspicion of a dip behind. A band of sable is the only trimming. The tailor bodice fits like q Jersey, seamless and hooking over the left shoulder. The sleeves are immense, of course, but are accommodated under . golf cape lined with blue and black plaided surah.
 A bride not yet out of her teens is making ready for q voyage round the world with a green and black plaid travelling dress as one of the items of her outfit. It has full, round waist with a black velvet belt and q fanciful yoke of black also. The sloped sides of the yoke are caught to the belt and hang down upon the skirt in panels. A green felt sailor hat belongs to the costume and is trimmed with black feathers. ELLEN OSBORN.

Swearing Allegiance to Russia.

The ceremony of swearing allegiance to the new czar, which has been going on ill every Russian church i'll Europe, is an old Byzantine one. Liturgical chants and prayers precede it. The off ciating priest and singers are heard but not seen during the devotional part of the service When they appear, they come forward. A crueifix and copy of tho gospels are on the table. The con gregatipn, beginning with tho function aries present. then file past the table. Each halts while the priest, holding up the forefingcr and second finger of one hand, recites tho oath. Tho person to be sworn in holds lis hand i'll the same manner. When the formula is epe@ted. no says, with Il hmtl e. the gospels, T swear, and, siaaplls down. kisses the crucifx. The Duke of Lerchtenborg was among those who took the oath at tho Russian church ill Paris. Paris Correspondent.

 o'clock, at which, until quite lately, Mir. Gladstone read the lessons for the day 1t was a treat to hear the beau- tiful words of Isaiah in Mr, Glad stones sonorous voice, which suited well the majestic language of the prophet.
 MT. and Mrs. Gladstone, like other parents who are fortunate~ enourh to have their children and grandebil- dren with them at this happy sea- son, have Q houseful of life If the frost is hard enough there is skating on the lake in the park. About four o'clock Mir. and Mrs. Gladstone may appear In the pony carriage, which bears the kettle and tea and cake: n fire of sticks Is lighted, the kettle boils. and there is pleasant impromptu tea party which is enjoyed with mirth and laughter. MT. Gladstone is full of pleas ant stories and memorable sayings, and Is the very life of the party.
 Then one day in the week all the school children have to be entertained. .Hawarden is an immense parish. the schools are very numerous, so some of the little ones come a long way. But they forget fatigue when they have been regaled with a hearty tea, and the Christmas tree, all covered with lights and presents, meets their eager eyes.
 Mrs. Gladstone is especially charm ing on these occasions, for it is just what she enjoys. She never used to rest a moment, but gave the greater number of presents to children with her own hands. Though age tells won derfully little upon her, still she has to allow others to help her now more than she used to do.
 Mir. and Mrs Gladstonc's birthdays both fall within the Christmas season MT. Gladstone's, as all the world knows, on December 20, and Mrs. Glad- stone's on January 6. 0n both these days there are sure to be happy social gatherings.
 Within the grounds of IIawar6Ien castle stands q very old house, which used to be the dower-house of the Ray enscrofts, a family who in olden times owned part of the parish. Their estate was united to the part belonging tothe Glynnes by the marriage of the heir of that family to the heiress of the Ravens crofts Mrs. Gladstone has had this old house comfortably done mp, and there dwell her orphan boys, success sion of whom have for thirty years made the old walls resound with noise and mirth, as the manner of boys is. They have fine, free, natural life. Each day they march up to the boys school, not walking in formal order, but playing by the way. On Saturdays

The Pope Having His Tomb Made.

Although the pope is in very rood health, and is devoting himself with ardor to the reunion of tl-e eastern and western churches, which is being dis cussed by the conference of patriarchs, his holiness has given orders for the preparation of his own tomb. The celebrated sculptor, Sig. Maccagnani, has received the commission to set about the work The monument, says the London Standard, which is to be, of white Carrara marble, is to be a sarcophagus, on which will repose a lion with it's fore paws resting on the papal tiara. To the right there will be a statue of Faith, with torch in one hand and the Scriptures in the other, and to the left figure of Truth, the hand laid on the coat of arms of the Peeci family. The only inscription on the tomb will be- .sHic Leo XIII. P. NJ. pulvis est" By his will, the pope directs that his remains be buried in the Basilica of St. John Lateran.

and pink, and is made with an enor- mously wide skirt, untrimmed except for q soft knotted twist of the same stuff run about the hem and caught here and there with blue ribbons. There is little round bodice, low in the neck and with twist of gauge framing the shoulders. Blue ribbons make butterfly bows upon the shoul- ders as well as & belt with long flying ends in front and behind.
 Two other Xmas party dresses-il- lustrated-are of sea green taffeta and of silver blue satin, respectively. The taffeta frock has quaint little skirt with slashed sides caught together with bows and straps of ribbon. The bodice has white taffeta sleeves fig ured with little bouquets. Ribbon straps and point lace finish the corsage.
 The blue satin dress is of an odd ehangeable material, shifting from blue to silver and, again, showing pink lights most unexpectedly It is founced with silver chiffon caught up with rose garlands. The flounce is carried up the back of the skirt in most original fashion and held by two big pink roses. A narrow gold cord makes q scroll-lilse tracery across the front and edges the low corsage. Straps of rosebuds go over the shoul-

exactly touches the senses. 1t is ditfi- cult to analyze, but, nevertheless, it is true that the spirit which pervades the atmosphere, and lends charm to the common enjoyments of the season, is engendered by the personal lovable- ness of the man and the woman who occupy the predominant place in the parish. Their personality is force which blends loving human sympathy with an individual humility in uncom- mon union.
 This loving spirit fits in well with the thought of the origin of Christmas, the beginning of Christianity, the religion of the lowly Thus there is no feeling of incongruity here. All can join with true fraternal sympathy in the serv- ices of the church and the social GUS toms which the country provides in honor of the day
 Picture, then, bright and beautiful Christmas day, with the trees and hedges and the graves around the old church all glistening with sunshine. The old church tower is ringing out sweet hynn-tune. MT. and Mrs. Clad stone and their family are walking through the park to join the first congregation which gathers in the freshness of the early morning to worship Him whose birth we commemorate that day. While the peasant and the statesman kneel side by side in perfect equality, the thought cannot be absent from any of us that we are all members of one true family. This is the keynote which anyone spending Christmas with MT. and Mrs. Gladstone cannot fail to recognize. As the congregation leaves the church, "A happy Christmas" resounds on all sides. Hearty greetings and genial handshakings are the order of the day.
 Hawarden village stands on the first spur of the Welsh mountains, of which Moel-fama is here the crowning height. The view is splendid. The Vale Royal of Chester is spread below, with the estuary of the Dee, and the line of the Medsey i'll the distance discernible by the smoke strealxs on the horizon. The church and churchyard stand on the edge of the hill in full view of this great sweep of country, and so does the rectory, into which Mir. and Mrs. Gladstone enter to be affectionately sa- luted by their little grandchildren, their son, the rector, and his wife.
 Then. perhaps, the pony carriage comes for them, or they may walk quietly through the village to greet their friends on their way down to the castle. They always return again to 1 the morning service nchurch at eleven A-

 Juggling with the Dollar.

The republic of Honduras has ndopt- ed the gold dollar of the United States as it's standard coin. For the purpose of effecting the change to the new standard the old currency is redeemed by giving fifty cents for one dollar. When governments go into the cheap money business, says the Philadelphia Record, they usually manage to get a dollars worth for half a dollar; and whom they go into the business after the Honduran fashion they get two dol lars for one. The swindle of demon citation and remonetization bears vith equal hardship upon the unhappy people who arc the victims of this form of leealized robbery:

they have famous rambles in the woods, or games of cricket or football. Of course when Christmas comes round they are not forgotten by Mir. and Mrs. Gladstone. Their fete is very impor- stant day indeed. Many of the old boys arc now useful citizens, and they some times turn up at this joyous season to greet their old friends at the castle and orphanage. The big fellows occasion much excitement in the minds of the present little inmates, who look for ward wonderingly to the time when they, too, shall be grown up'' and re- turn to Hawarden as honored visitors
 One or two of Mrs. Gladstone's boys are settled in the village. and have wives and children of their own. One was apprenticed to the principal tailor, and great was his pride. as we can we'll imagine, when he was considered com petent to make a complete suit of clothes for Mr. Gladstone.
 Before leaving Hawarden let us stroll through the park. The charming frosty morning has been followed by a winters day full of bright sunshine,

As VIC walk along en- toying these lovely tints of nature, We hear in the distance the thud of the .woodman's ax. We hasten i'll the di- rection from which the sound seems to come in the hope of finding that MT. Gladstone is the woodsman at work. Happily we are not disappointed. There he is with his sons in shirt sleeves felling mighty tree, whose time has come to give its timber for other uses than beauty alone Mrs. Gladstone and her daughters and some of the grandchildren arc looking on, with few neighbors.

For over forty years this ancient parish has gloried in being the country home of Mr. and Mrs. Gladstone. 1t had been Mrs Gladstone's home from childhood till her marriage. Every inhabitant was dear to her, and she was beloved by them all.
 When she came back to live there with her husband, he being states man of rising fame and eminence, the people of Hawarden felt they no longer lived in an unknown village, but they were linked on from henceforth with all the greater interests of the Victor ian age, and that the glory of the name of Gladstone was their glory also, glory which should live in English his tory. Mr. Gladstone's presence has been like liberal education to Ha- warden, enlarging the horizon of in- terest and knowledge to all who dwell there.
 Hawarden is very charming and very dear to it's inhabitants, and MT. and Mrs. Gladstone are no exception in having this feeling of affection for the old place. Here they always spend Christmas in the midst of their chil- dren, their friends and neighbors. wish I could in painting convey the vivid picture which rises up in my own mind as memory begins to play among happy remembranees.
