was the reception given at the Imperial
embassy by the German ambassador,
Barron Won Holleben.T The embassy having
no feminine head, the Baron was assist
ed in receiving by the Baroness Hengel-
muller, wife of the Austro-Hungarian
minister, and Nine. Paternotre, wife of
the Ambassador of France at Madrid.
These two women were exquisite to be-
hold, the Baroness appearing in a court
robe of white satin,s embroidered with
gold and pearls. All her famous jewels
were in evidence, and her brunette charms
offset the loneliness of the fairer Nine
Paternotre, whose gown was a pale green
creation of velvet and silk trimmed with
priceless lace. The dog collar worn above
the decolete bodice was a solid mass of
diamonds, and though the German Am
bassador has not been here long, he GER
tainly is a judge of women to have select
ed the two beauties of Washington to act
as hostesses at his reception.
Uniforms were not worn, but the diplo-
matte corps was fully represented, wear
ing evening dress, and various gold and
jeweled orders.

+. HOW A SAILORS PAY GOES.
Jack Tar Usually Squanders His
Wages, Sometimes by Proxy.

Jack Tar Usually sauanders His
Wages, Sometimes by Proxy.
From the New York Press.
What do the jack tars in the navy do
with all their money? has often been ask
ed, although most people have answered
the question to their own satisfaction be-
forehand by deciding that they spent it the
fIst chance they got. Many of the younger
or newer ones do get rid of their cash at
the first opportunity. but then they spend
II themselves and get their moneys WORTH
or what they think or are made to believe
is their moneys worth. Those who are
really warm in their following seldom take
all their wages from the paymaster They
let him keep IL during the cruise and draw
| per cent interest on 1t until the cruise is
over. Then, of course. some spend it all be-
fore they go back to the ship. They have
good time all in lump and are satisfied
to wait for extravagant days again until
another use is over. These are the men
who have no Che except themselves to care
for While on the man-of-war they need
not so short of anything and yet not use
their money. Moreover, they will pr ibably
attend TO Their duties better and have a
much finer time when the cruise Is at am
end.
Those who have wives or families or yel-
all ca to. care for ust ally send Their NOM
ey home regularly and faithfully. Often,
however, tteir confidence is meanly abds-
! ed Married men fAake up this class TnCy
send their wives comfortable incomes and
| that is all these wives care for them for
! These are the wives who married simply
| for what there was in marriage in money
way, with the additional advantage or con-
venience of not having husband around
much. Unluckily for WOMEN of this class,
..l- -
| chief petty officers or first-rate petty Of
| ficers can afford the luxury of marriage,
and even they have TO watch out pretty
| keenly not to impair the due to their bet
| ter halves.
Many of these better halves are adven-
| turesses pure and simple, who make II a
| business to get acquainted with naval
men, make an impression, get married
and then take the money sent to them and
| do what they please--marry someone else
at another navy yard belonging TO anoth-
| err ship sometimes, and keep track of the
cruises of the vessels.
The order men seem to fall most easily
before the adventures. And when they
discover their mistake and have obtained
divorces and are free again usually get
back into the same boat.
Still, many a woman Is a sailors wife

man ever was. She takes care of baby
while he is away and almost dies for joy
| when she can meet him at the end of a
cruise. Sailors, too. in many cases are
just as true to their wives, although some
times with them only two months In three
years Then. again, others slave simply
that son or a daughter. a brother or a
sister may get an education and will not
have to work as hard as they do, or are
sailors so they can earn enough to keep
an aged parent out of want.

SAVANNAH PoSTMASTERsHIP.
BLUN's FRIENDS TO OPPOSE CON-
FIRMATION OF DOYLE.

Col. Lester and the Georgia Senators
Not Taking Any Part in the Com
troversy-DOyIe IndustriOusly at
Work With Senator Hanna at His
-BacI<-EnOrts Being Made to Sc
cure a CoIoneIcy for Mai. Withers.
Washington, May 1.-THE Georgia con-
gressmen are still discussing the. mystery
surrounding the Savannah postmastership.
Representative Lester called at the
White House to-day to see the President.
but the latter was engaged with the war
board. so Col. Lester did not wait for an
interview. He probably intended to make
some inquiry as to the sudden and unex-
pected change from Mr.. Blum to Mr..
Doyle.
Col. Lester says he does not believe Mr..
Doyle viii be any more acceptable to the
citizens of Savannah than Mr.. Blum would
have been, and it is probable that MI.
BUNS friends will oppose the conirma-
ton of Mr.. Doyle.
The Georgia senators are not taking any
part in the controversy, which is said to
be going on between the Doyle and Blum
factions. and Col. Lester will also keep
hands off and let the Republicans fight
out their own salvation.
In the meantime MIR. Doyle is industri-
ously at work, with Senator Hanna at
his back and ne is confident of being con
hrmed eventually.
Representative Fleming saw the Presl-
dent TINS morning In the interest Of Maj.
Withers of Augusta, who desires an ap-
pointment in the army as colonel. Mai
Withers has had considerable military ex-
perience and is anxious to be made colonel
of one of the immune regiments now be-
ing organized.
The President, however, gave Mr.. Flem-
ing TO understand that outside of the two
or three regiments already organized, and
which would probably be accepted in their
entirety, the immune regiments would be
composed of negroes. Mr.. Fleming says
he does not know whether Maj. Withers
would care 20 accept the colonecy of a
black regiment and will put the question
before him to decide. He said that IL
Maj. Withers has no objection on account
OF color, his chances are good.
Representative Griggs was at the war
| department to-day in the interest of e. J.
Williams of Triton, who is a candidate
| for second lieutenant In the regular army
Mr.. Griggs saw Secretary Alger and ex-
| planned to him that young williams has
| been educated at a military institution and
| has had some military experience. The
| secretary assured Judge Griggs that Mr.
| Williams would be given an opportunity
to stand the prescribed examination. and
If he was successful there was nothing in
the way of his appointment.

He Is Suffering from Bronchial Pneu-

MADRID. Dec. 2S.-The condition of Senor
Sagasta, the premier, now causes grave
anxiety. Six physicians were in consultation
this afternoon regarding his case and con-
CURED that he is suffering from bronchial
pneumonia, with high temperature and an
unfavorable absence of expectoration. The
newspapers express great sympathy. There
is no doubt that his illness is aggravated by
the strain of recent events. The Queen Re
gent twice during the day telephoned in
quiries as to his condition. and this evening
sent her own physician to attend him. The

cludes all the foreign diplomats and host

ADDRESS BY THE POPE
HIS HOLINESS REFERS TO THE "SIN-
ISTER EVENTS OF 1882
And Says Europe Should Unite to Stop
"Unheard-Of Outrages and Saw
age ExtermiMatiOns.'

ROME, Dec 23.-The Pope to-day at the
reception of the Christmas greetings of the
cardinals and other prelates appeared to
be in excellent health. Replying to their
congratulations he referred to the sinister
events of 1885, and said it was high time
the governments of Europe united to stop
"Unheard of outrages and savage extermi-
nations" But, the Pontiff added, this could
not be stopped until THE fear of God. the
basis of all morality, is revived in the con-
science of the people, and becomes the guild
ing principle of the organization of states"
In regard to the present position Of the
church in Italy, the Pope pointed out that
the symptoms were not reassuring for the
new year. He added that the conditions
imposed on the head of the church. in vio-
lation of his dignity and rights were not
enough for now it was sought to cast oGium
on the press which openly espoused the de-
Tense of his interests and the interests OF
religion and morality" Continuing. the
Pontiff remarked: Further rigors threaten
the clergy, although they are the class
furthest removed from seditious designs.
The obedience of the clergy to the Apostolic
See, whose rights they defended and whose
intentions they seconded, is now being con-
strued as a political offense. Nevertheless,
imbued with the sense of their high mission
and duty the clergy will not yield. either
to batteries or menaces, and their frmness
is finding response in numerous laymen
deeply imbued with love for the papacy. 1t
is thus by the cooperation of the clergy
and laity, that the salvation of coming gem
erations is assured"
