It remains to he determined whether Prof. William Lib.wy If Princeton university is to he thanked for his picturesque exploit in climbing up the Mesa Encanta.la in New Mexico. The mesa has been the subject of endless romance among the tribes who sonc- how manage to hold to existence in ths furnace-hrat Of. the middle plains of New Mrxic0. It is a rock 500 feet in height, not unsymmetricai ip de, sign, and standing alone On the plain. Until Pr,f Libbry came along and in the interest nf science shot ropes from . life-saving service gun acrnss the summit no human hand. it Is supposed. ever touched the mpsa's crown. Al least this is the belief confirmed bl Prof. Libbry's Investigations; fur. in- stead of fahird ruins If ancient cities and ths relies If a prehistoric civilixa. ton. he found no'hing but sage brush and the usual dry scrul-growih ol New Mexican plants.
 Science has gained a few photo graphs If these things. It has als' gained the knowledge that the summit of the mesa is not inaccessible to ex pl"raiion, provided ,hs explorer b. equipped with enough ropes snd ! team of mules. But whole world "l romaniic traditions has been wiprs out. The mystery "f the enchanted mesa is gone. It might haver eren,ainrs for years useful as figure in ps~iis imagery and inspiring io the imagina ton as haunted and unknowahl' land. Now il is nothing but a colossa pile of rock covered with ugly brush anu interesting only as an emblem Q

upon that occasion, consisted " divided
skirt OF the heaviest scarlet-silk under a
long, loose klmono OF duh .heliptrope, bro
cadod with conventional wisteTia and the inn
pcral crest in white. She wore no outer
obi. or sash, about the waist with the big
bow at the back, as is common to most
Japanese dresses, and her neck was wrapped
high with surplce folds of ranbow-tintod
silks. She had long, square sleeves of this
heavy brocade. and you could see many un-
dcrdresses of fine white aud scarlet silk
showing beneath these. She was attended
by many prncesscs and peetesses who wore
similar costumes, and she carried herself
with great dignity.
Her majesty Is every inch an empress.
She is small and slender, aud is what the
Japanese consider beautiful. She has long,
thin face and her eyebrows have the pro-
nounced arch of the willow leaf. Her face
is sad and rather pathetic, and 1t is more
often sober than laughing. At recent visit
to the peeresses' school she wore dove
colorod silk dress and dove-colored Paris
bonnet with a white plume, and her tastes
are as a rule modest and quiet She does
not like pomp, but the costumes OF the coun-
try require that when she moves through
the city It must be in gorgeous turnout and
with n large retinue.

her side sits Miss Sullivan repeating silently
to her pupil everything that is said by the
class teacher. You will see the two figures
alone in the front row, as you inter the
room, and III you are a very close observer
you will notice that their hands, on the seat
between them. are clasped together and that
each word uttered by the class teacher Is re-
peated by almost imperceptible motions of
these hands. Later you VIII observe a much
more interesting sight. You will ste the
beautiful fingers of the blind student seek
her teachers face and rest there, the index
finger on the side of the poSe, the Gecond
finger on the lower lip and the thumb be-
meath the chin. Commanding thus the entire
range OF nasal, lip and throat movements
Helen Kellers brain receives from her scnsi-
tive finger-tlps the messages from the speak
ing world. This success din. teaching her
pupil to read speech by laying her finger on
the speakers lips, is perhaps the crown OF
Miss SulliVans work, Before she could do
that Helen could communicate only with
these who understood the arbitrary sign Ian
guage of the blind and deaf Now she can
understand anybody whose lips she can
touch, and she has also been taught to
speak readily and with surprising distinct
ness, considering her Affections. Her speech
Is rather thick and her voice monotonous,
which Is to be expected, considering that
che herself has never heard speech since
her infancy, and has no remembrance Of
having heard II then. But one understands
her readily and she, wholly unconscious
OF any popularity In her voice, talks on
rapidly earnestly and joyously. This JOY
BUSINESS and the eager interest she feels in
all new objects and persons are among the
girls chief charms. She rs so bright so
eager, so alert, so evidently and wholly
happy, that the feeling OF sympathy with
which one approaches her seems quite un-
called for, Knowing nothing OF the sin and
suffering and sorrow Of the world, she turns
TO the good and bright side OF life as
naturally a. bird scars upward. She is a

THE EMPRESS OF JApAN.
The Life of the First Lady OF that
Oriental Land.

The Life of the First Lady OF that
Oriental Land.
The empress of Japan is now A years OF
age. She is the daughter of one of the five
ncblest families of the empire. She has no
imperial blood in her veins, for the laws OF
Japan provide that the empress shall not
come Of the royal family, and the daugh-
ters of the Mikadoes of the past have usL-
ally gone into the Buddhist nunneries or
have become priestesSes of the Shinto faith
Her majesty was Just Is years old at the
time of her marriage, says Demorests Maya
zine. The mikado had passed through the
first part of the great revolution by which
the Shotgun, or commander-n-chief of the
army was overthrown, and he was again
placed at their head as the chief ruler of his
people. He had moved from his capital in
western Japan to the City of Yeddo, which
was hereafter to be called Toxic, or the new
capital, and he went back to Kioto to cele-
brate his wedding. The marriage took place
in a temple inside of the gorgeous old pal
ace of this holy city, and the divinity hedg-
ing the imperial family was still so great
that the world got no account of the cere-
mony.
The Empress Haru Ko had been brought
up in the strictest seclusion. She had been
taught something OF the Chinese classics,
and was versed in oil matters of ceremonial
etiquette. But she knew absolutely nothing
Of the great world of modern civilization.
She soon grasped, however, the wonderful
change which was taking place in the Japan
csc empire and she Joined with the mikado
in pushing all kinds OF modern reforms.
Three years after her marriage she gave an
audience to five young girls who were start
ing out TO America to study western ciyiliZa-
tion from the standpoint of women, and
she has since organized charities and
schools, and inaugurated all sorts OF benev-
olent Institutions. She has large private
income. but she spends so much upon charity
that she keeps herself poor, and she actually
goes without things that she needs in order
to give mere TO her people,
In all things the empress sets the exam
pie for her people, and, not many years
dress. She stopped blacking her teeth soon
now allowed TO grow out as freely as those
Of an American woman. The selection OF
foreign clothes instead OF the old Japanese
costume was much deprecated by foreignerl,
and a number OF American women filed
GCme sort OF a protest against II. The ques-
tion OF getting the measure OF the empress
was a matter of considerable moment. Her
majestys form was tCo holy to be handled
by common dTessmaker so a compromise
was made by taking the measure OF the
Countess Ito. the wife of the premier, who
is of Just about the same height and shape
as the empress. The costume was not
adopted until after long discussion, and II
was not until nearly twenty years after her
marriage that she appeared in state In for
eign clothes. In 1885 she still wore the old
Japanese costume at garden party; and
this, as described by lady who saw her

PEN PICTURE.
In appearance she is a well formed, grace
full perfectly healthy girl OF i6, with simple
gowns, reaching to her boottops and mass
Of short, curly brown hair falling over her
shoulders Her complexion is clear, her
features are good and only her eyes show
her atflction, Her expression is wonderfully
sweet and winning and her manner thor

sciousnoss. Her most marked characteristics
are her joyousness and her eagornoss 10
learn. She laughs frequently and con-
tagiously. She has already become very
popular with her schoolmatos, with whom
she plays and dances during the morning in
termission of half an hour. She learned to
dance by following the motion of the girls
bodies with her hands as they danced and
she feels the vibrations of the music and
keeps perfect time She boards in Cam
bridge, but a short walk from Mr. Gilmans
school Here she meets and mingles with
the girls in the evening, Some OF them have
asked her to teach them the hand alphabet.
"They get along very we'll" she told the
writer in speaking of their attempts, but
some of their mistakes are very funny
Helens life at present is a regular one.
She is in school from o'clock In the morning
until /. In the afternoon she reads, walks
delightful conversations with Miss sullivan.
She is interested in all the national ques-
tions of the day, and discussed the gold and
silver question with the writer with great
earncstness.
II should be very glad to get all ! could
| of either gold or silver" she ended laugh
| ngly, but of course l think the gold
standard is the best for America"
She also confded to the writer that her
grea: ambition is to go through college,
and that she is fitting herself for this career
with purely unselfsh motives
II wish to be able to help others said
this child on whom all the world has
looked with tender sympathy.
1t has frequently been asked whether Relen
Keller dreams of seeing and hearing. She
was asked about this the other day and her
reply was prompt, cheerful and wholly to the
point.
"Of course not" she said, I'm blind and
deaf" she added that, like others, she
dreamed of the persons and the incidents of
her waking hours. II is naturally impossible
for her to understand all that is implied by
the words seeing" and hearing" She
cnnnot wholly realize her lack and certainly
there are compensations for these in the
awakening of her young soul and the devel-
cpment of her wonderful mind.

OF velvet to be worn with cloth skirts are
made double e-breasted, with a high stand
ing Jacket collar that is sometimes lined
inside fur. These are intended for the
promenade. A very chic costume OF gray
trimmed with black braid has the skirt
and sleeves OF zebeline cloth and a boero
OF velvet The skirt is trimmed near the
top with cluster OF parallel rows OF black
braid. and the sleeves are covered with
the same braid running round from top
to bottom. The bolero is double-breasted
with a high flaring collar, and is trimmed
with rows of the braid. High belts of
black tafeta pass up under the bolero.
Velvet gowns are trimmed with braid IN
the same way or, instead OF braid, with
stitched bands OF bias silk
Other gowns are made OF mixed black and
white cheviot that has much the same effect
as the small checks of last year. These are
| trimmed with black braid or velvet ribbon.
An inexpensive demi-season gown may be
made of a skirt of this gray cheviot trimmed
with black braid and blouse of black velvet
or velveteen. 1t should have high jacket
collar. and may be plain or trimmed with
braid like the skirt. The braid should have
