COURT LADIES MUST NOT SMOKE.



viceoria's Aversion to Tobacco.
New York Tribune.
Russia's young empress has created con-
eternation at the court of st. Petersburg
b. dtscountenancing the use OF tobacco by
the ladies with whom she il brought In
contact She is credited with the observa-
ton that . cigarette In the mouth OF .
woman Ia as bad as an oath in that of .
man, and has requested that neither her
ladies in waiting nor yet the ladies Of the
court should approach her as long as there

their clothes or about their persons. Now.
nearly every member OF the imperial fam
uy. and In natural consequence well-nign
every lady In court and In society at st.
Petersburg, II addicted to the use and
even abuse Of cigarettes. the Grand
Duchess Vladimir being conspicuous
among the number.
The widowed czarina, like her sisters
the princess Of Wales and the duchess Of
Cumberland. never favored the use OF
tobacco by ladies, but In spite OF all the
influence which she welded over her hus-
band. Alexander Ill, she did not venture
openly to object to Il on the part Of tho
members Of her court. That the young
empress should have had the courage to
do SO constitutes proof not only that her
influence over her husband II OF Q pre-
dominant nature. but also that she will
NOT hesitate 10 use II 1oe the execution
Of her ideas. irrespective Of any pre1udices
or obstacles that she may encounter.
There II only one other soveregn In
Europe who manifests q similar aversion
to tobacco. namely, Queen Victoria. who
has been known to cause her private secre-
tary, the late Gen. Sir Henry Ponsonby.
to address letters to her various cabinet
ministers complaining of the aroma Of
tobacco with which the ofacial documents

signature were impregnated. The Prince
OF Wales Is always miserable when he
stays at Windsor with his mother. on ac-
count OF his not being permitted to
smoke. and the one reason why he leases
. mansion every summer at Ascot for the
race week at an expense Of $4,000 or $780,
900 merely for the few days is that her
majesty declines TO permit him to rse the
castle for the time unless he promises
that there shall be no smoking on the
part Of himself. has friends or his attend
