When Miss Vanderbilt has been to
a great tea or reception the night
before, she does not rise until 10
o'clock. Then she has her breakfast
served in her room, and does not
make her appearance down stairs
much before luncheon.
Ordinarily she rises at o'clock,
and slips into a bath robe of rose

HOMELESS
Though They Are in Possession

Though They Are in Possession
of Scores of Habitations.
| New York Recorder.
1t would surprise many ordinary
mortals to learn how intense is the
yearning on The part of royal person
ages and great mobiles tor i home
This may sound strange when it is
borne in mind that in nearly every in
stance they are possessed of inndmora-
BILE palaces, chateauX, villas and cas-
ties. But it is just this plethora of resi-
dences that prevents their feeling at
home in any one of them. / am led to
make this remark by the exclamation
contained in the little book just pub
lished by the Austrian Archduke Louis
Salvador, the same whose yacht, the
Mike, was wrecked a few months ago.
ut was the only place that l could
call my home and where 1 felt at
home,' he writes. 'In all my palaces
and residences at Vienna and on the
shores of the Adriatic, even at my vii
la on the Isle of Majorca, 1 feel exact
ly as if l were in hotel, or, worse
still, in Jail. There is absolutely no
sense of home there"
The sentiments thus expressed
by the archduke are shared by
nearly every royal and imperial GER
sonage in Europe, with the possible ex-
ceptions of the Prince and Princes of
Wales, who have a private home of
their own at Sandringham, while their
brother and siSter-in-laW, the Duke
and Duchess of Cumberland, have a
similar home of their own at Gmun-
den, in Austria. The others spend their
whole time in migrating from one
palace to another. Thus. for instance,
the king and queen of Italy divide
their time between Rome, Naples,
Monza, Florence, Turin, Venice and
the Alps. Yet in no place do they feel
at home-ieast of all at the Quirina1 in
Rome. They, like other personages in
the same condition, feel themselves I'M
der an obligation to spend at least a
short period in each of their resi-
lences, and this obligation falls very
heavily upon some of them

Iiveried servants will allow.
After luncheon Miss Vanderbilt
reads or sews. She makes beautiful
fancy work, and there are so many
aunts and uncleS and cousins In the
family, and birthdays and Christmas
are so punctual in arriving that she
has plenty. to do All of her gifts are
made by her own dimpled fingers. 1t
may be using gold-handled scissors
and a diamond-Studded thimble is
what makes the work so beautiful
and effective.
At 8 o'clock she meets her mother
in the great hallway, all ready for
the afternoon drive. Her gown is OF
dark heliotrope cloth, and her long
Jacket, with it's broad reverS and tall
storm collar, is of Russian sable.
She is going to stop at the Rookie
fellers on her way home for some
skating on their artificial lake, so in
stead of the big velvet picture hat
she usually wears she puts on a small
velvet toque of mingled fur and vel
vet. After the merry skating is
done she walks the few blocks UP the
avenue to her home.
The Little Romance.
1t is most likely that young Moses
Taylor is her escort, for little bit
of romance has come into her young
life, and it may be that some day
this handsome young fellow will win
her for his wife. He is the grand
son of old Moses Taylor, who left
$40, coo, 900 or more to his children,
and he was the classmate and chum
of William H. Vanderbilt, the son
whom Cornelius Vanderbilt lost two
years ago, and whose sad death has
brought a lifelong sorrow into the
hearts of all of the VanderDiltS.

A pretty matinee she wore the
other day was of slzy-blue silk, made
in princess fashion, with a collar
which was large enough for a cape,
and deep cuffs of creamy white
duchess and round point lace. A
diamond and turquoise pin caught
the lace at the throat, and the sames

comb in her hair and the many
rings which she wore on her pretty
hands.
Miss Vanderbilt cares as much for
rings as any other girl, and she has
a supply of beauties-enough already
to fill a demi-tasse.

NEW YORK, Dec. 3O.-The departure OF
Lord Dunraven and Arthur Glennie from
New York on Saturday last detracted only
a little from the interest exhibited by all
those interested when the hearing of evil
dence by the special committee was re-
sumed at the New York Yacht Clubhouse
to-day. Captains Haff and Terry, with
many members of Defenders crew. were
early on hand. Lawyer Askwith, who is

owner, also was present, accompanied by
Secretary Hamilton. At o'clock the COM
mittee adjourned, TO meet again at 10
clock tomorrow morning.
The members of the committee and the
lawyers, together with the Witnesses main-
tanned the same stony silence that has char
acterized all the proceedings of this inves-
tigation, stating that there was absolutely
nothing to be said for publication yet.
Among those who testified to-day were
Mate Berry of Defender. and Messrs.
Thorne. Terry, Staples and Connant. 1t is
expected that to-morrow's session will end
the case.

WOULDN'T BE LYNCHED.


ST. LOUIS. Dec. So.-For several weeks
past a big, burly negro has been stealing
all sorts of things from the butchers and
hucksters at the Union markethouse, but
he always escaped arrest, and the tenants
OF the market became exasperated over
their losses. This morning the negro was
caught while carrying off two horse blank
cts and the cry of lynch him!' went up.
A crowd Of angry men seized him. bound
his wrists, put a rope around his neck and
strung him up by block and tackle hang
ing in the markethouse. But the negro had
grea' nerve and while his tongue was pro-
truding from his mouth and his eyes bulg-
ing from their sockets he made violent
struggle, broke the cord which bound his
arms and before the mob realized what he
was doing, he whipped big knife from his
pocket, cut the rope, dropped TO the ground
and ran like a deer. He was chased and
overtaken by the mob, but he turned with
his big knife and showed such desperate
fight that the crowd halted and wayered.
and the negro escaped up an alley.

thing between the two, but the referee
awarded the bout to Leon amid boots, and

about even In the first three rounds In
the fourth some heavy blows were struck
by both men, and a left swing from Pick

sixth Dobbs went down twice from the

to take notice of. He went down again

very foully In the seventh round. but Dobbs

from being beaten, although he received
terrible punishment. Dobbs sailed In for

Dobbs fell from the force OF his own blow.

END OF A BEER WAR.


CHICAGO. Dec. 3o.-The beer war which
has ragged for a year or so has been settled.
All the brewing companies doing business
in Chicago have perfected a mutual agree
meat by which the price Of beer viii be ad-
vanced on Jan. / TO 1--WE dollars a barrel
the present price being four dollars or less.
1t is estimated that this will result in the
closing of some 1900 saloons in Chicago dur
ing the first three months of 1895 Ever
since the Brewers Association went TO
pieces about a year ago efforts have bee1
constantly directed toward reviving 1t and
to-day Rudolph Brand. of the Brand Brew
ing Company, announced at a meeting Of
brewers that the Anheuser-Busch Company,
CT ST. Louis the one concern holding out
against the proffers of peace, had agreed
to cooperate with the Chicago and Mil
waukee brewers in bringing about the re-
organization of the ASSOCIATION and the es-
-tablishment of the five dollar rate on the
malt beveMge, thus ending a long drawn
out and to many of the weaker breweries,
disastrous conflict Tne AnheuSer- Busch
Company refused fatty 10 enter into any
pool but it was shown that ii would be i'm
possible to end the beer war without at
least the cooperation of that company.
Mr.. Busch consented 10 come 10 an under
standing on certain trade matters which
will help to promote the best interests of
the brewing business.
The effect of the new compact will be far
reaching. The past year has been most dis
astrous to the brewing business in the
West. When the old Brewers Association
disbanded beer was selling at six dollars a
barrel. 1t dropped quickly 10 four dollars
and in many cases lower. Long lines of
credit were given to saloon keepers without
security ard many of these proved worth
less. In many cases the brewer paid the
license of saloon keepers TO hold their
trade and the result was the brewers lost
heavily. Syndicates were compelled TO pass
their dividends and the industrial concerns
made no profits. All the extraneous ex-
penses will be now done away with, and the
consequence will be that the price to the
saloon keepers will be increased and the
public will get a much better article OF
thirst destroyer than before.
