MODERN WHIST.
How 1t Differs From the KIM in Vogue
Years Ago.
New York Herald.)

The old-fashioned individual whist Of
our daddles, where everyone played ac-
cording to his own hand, Is, and ever will
be, the game of THE masses, but I'm the
atmosphere of c.ubdom and up-to-date
circles The modern style reigns supreme,
so a few maXAms or timely hints will
prove acceptable to many who find that
a little whist knowledge is one of the
requirements of good society.
1t was Colonel Drayton, the popular
English author, who said: MANY per-
sons who blunder through a game of
whist will excuse their mistakes in a
very we'll satisfied way by saying they
never studied a book in their lives, as
Jhey only play for amusement Just

Is a combinati on of forces utilized so as
Ito play the partners hands to the best

system whereby every card becomes an

WHEN OTHERS HATE US.

A we'll known man about town, who
had written to a lady friend at a distance
Of the treatment received at the hands Of
a woman who was attempting to injure
his business, received the following reply
from his friend:
News! Newsl News! My gossiping friends,
l ave wonderful news to tell.
A lady by me her compliments sends,
And this is the news from Hell:
The Devil is dead. He died resigned,
Though somewhat oppressed by cares;
But his wife, my friends, is a woman of
mind,
And looks after her lords affairs.
1 nave just come back from that wonder
full place,
And kist hands with the Queen down
there:
But 1 cannot describe her majesty's face.
1t has filled me so with despair.
The place is not what you might suppose:
II Is worse in some respects.
But all that 1 heard there I must not
disclose,
For the lady that told me objects.
The laws of the and are not Salique,
But the King never dies, of course;
The new Queen is young, and pretty and
chic
There are women, I think, that are
worse.
But however that be, one thing I know,
And this 1 am free to tell;
The Devil, my friends, is a woman just
now;
IT'S a woman that reigns in Hell.

HER FIRST APPEARANCE.
Mary Anderson de Navarro Writes OF
Stage Debut and OF Her Cloud
ing Sorrow.

Mary Anderson de Navarro in her stage
career memoirs, which win be published
in the Ladies' Home Journal (Uhe open
ing chapters in the December issue),
gives the public a most interesting and
entertaining view of the trials and hard
Ships she successfully combated in fol-
lowing out her conviction that the stage
presented to her the opportunity for a
splendid career. She exultantly refers
to her debut in Louisville, KY, on Sat
urday evening, November q, 1876, upon
which occasion the tall, shy and awk-
ward" girl of sixteen interpreted Shakes
peare's l~ove-lorn Juliet. The perform
ance was arranged upon two days no.
tice-time for but a single rehearsal-and
the aspiring Kentucky girl was jubllant
| when the theater and a stock company
we're offered her, upon condition that she
play without pay. Her happiness, how
ever was not u~nclouded, for of the event
cine writes with touching pauhos: THAT
THURSDAY (uhe day her first appearance
was arranged) was n of the happiest
days of my life, filled as 1t was with the
brightest hope and anticipation. Only
one black cloud hung over 1t; the thought
of Monte and my grandparents who were
all very dear to me. Had i known then
that ! would never see the face of the
former, that he would die, my mother
and l far away from him, and that al
most until his death he would refuse to
forgive or see me unless 1 abandoned the
stage life which he thought so injurious
may, SINFUL would even then have
renowned what was within my grasp.
This arrangement saddened many years
of my life, and has cast a shadow over
all the otherwise bright and happy men,
cries of him who We the father, friend
and playmate Of our childhood days"
Mrs. de Navarro evidently did not suf-
fer from stage fright, the crushing terror
of debutantes, fer she writes that she
stood impatiently waiting for her cue
to go on. At last 1t came, Then, in a
flash, i was on tine stage, conscious only
of a wall of yellow light before me, and
a burst of prolonged applause" The
performance was filled with rather de-
pressing incidents; one of the payers
forgot his Vines and had to be prompted
by the youthful star; ONE neglected
to bring his dagger, n Juliet had to
perform her dispatch with a hairpln,
while the lamp that hung in Juliet's
tomb fell and badly burned her hands
and arms. Despite of these," she
writes, 1.-The night was a success, and l
knew that my stage career had begun
