senator's wives is Thursday, between
the hours of three and six in the after
noon. These receptions begin after the
first of January, and continue to be
held until Lent begins. Some ladies
observe the day for receiving all the
time congress is in session. The Gus
tomary preparations for holding an
afternoon reception are to station one
man at the drive TO open and shut car
riage doors and call carriages, and an
other at the hall door to admit callers
and take cards The hostess receives
the visitors standing near the door Of
the entrance, and is dressed in high
neckCd gown, which may otherwise be
as elaborate as taste may dictate. Wis
itors may be announced by name to the
hostess by an usher, or may speak their
names themselves.
ANY person is at liberty to make the
visits at the homes of senators, and all
persons are cordially received. Those
leaving cards expect their visits to be
returned; resident and nonresident
sightsetrs, who call without introduce
tion of any sort, do not leave cards. A
large proportion of the official folk owe
first calls TO the ladies Of the senate,
The ladies Of the cabinet, the wives Of
foreign ministers and the wives Of the
members OF the house Of congress.
These arc termed duty calls and must
be returned in person. A woman whose
husband is in the upper house can be
quite a. exclusive as any lady Of private
position, If she so desire. The women
Of the cabinet could not close their
houses 10 the public, however much
they might wish TO do So"

EARLY Marriage CeremonlnI,.

The early marriage ceremony among
our Anglo-Saxon forefathers was of a
very primitive character 1t consisted
merely of hand-iasting, OF taking each
other by the band, and pledging love
and affection, in the presence Of friends
aud relations. The bridegroom paid
the father sum of money, called q
"foster-lean," or payment for nourish-
ing. At later period, the carly Gus
tom Of cspousals was reduced to n reg.
ular system, and the lover was required
to give a WED" y security, for the
performance Of his contract; hence our
word wedding"

AN ENGINE OF DEATH.
DYNAMITE CRUISER vEsUviUs.
Can Throw . BiE Charge Of Dynamits-
Has Bcen Sent to Cuba to Expsrimens
on Havana Forts.

Washington. ID. c.. May 2-The dy-
Mantle cruiser yesuvius, which has
just left Newport to join the squadron
OF Havana, Is an experiment In war
fare which will be watched with great
interest by naval authorities all over
the world, and will undoubtedly be
given an opportunity to demonstrate
her merits before the war Is over.
She is supposed to be more effective
In battle than any of our battleships,
cruisers or torpedo boats, the most de-
structive agency In the entire wofiu;
and she is the only craft of her kind
In existence. but her efficiency has
been so stubbornly questioned that the
government has not duplicated her.
II she should prove equal to the prom
ises her defenders have made every
nation in the world will add similar
vessels to their fleet. She Is small,
swift and easily handled. and carries
three pneumatic guns, each OF which
discharges 500 pounds of nitroglycerine
every five minutes. Nitroglycerine has
five times the explosive power of gun
cotton and twenty-five times the eX-
plosive power of ordinary powder.
No ship could stand II moment against
an explosion of this kind, even though
1t occurred in the water 100 yards
from her hull. Captain Zalinski, who
invented the guns, has described the
effect of their discharge as Hell let
loose" and even that does not seem to
do full justice to the destruction that
would be caused by scattering three
quarters of ton of dynamite every
five minutes in a city or n fortress or
among n fleet OF vessels. The projec-
tiles are so arranged that when they
strike anything they will explode and
scatter the dynamite they contain in
shower over n large surface. They
can also be made to explode automat-
ically by clOckwork. Imagine seven
or eight such shells dropped into city
like New York or even Havana. or in
the midst of feet of warships. So
long as her guns are in condition for
use no vessel would dare attnck the
Vesuvius without inviting total de-
strrction. If this little craft We're pur-
sued II Is only necessary for 1t to
stand still and await the proper mo-
ment. when the discharge OF one or all
of It's guns would annilhilate Its pur-
suer. A cruiser or IL battlcship might
as well sail straight over Niagara.
But the critics of this little craft insist
that she will he absolutely unservice-
able In rough water, and her machin-
cry IL so delicate and complicated 1t
will be apt to get out of order when 1t
Is needed the most. She will Join the
squadron before Havana about Fri
day or Saturday, and the voyage from
Newport will be IL fair test of her sea-
going qualities.

He was not well for many weeks after
his arrival. He did not actually keep
his room; the earl, who was tender
enough and anxious enough where his
cousin was concerned, had ordered two
of the largest. lightest and most cheer
full apartments in the castle to be pre-
be prepared for him. and Lady Cara
ven was only too anxious to arrange
everything most luxuriously for him.
More than once. when she came to
read to him. always bringing with her
sweetest flowers and choicest fruits, he
had noticed that her face was pale and
her eyes were heavy with weeping.
Once, as she bent over him to show him
the lovely bloom on peach, he said to
her:
Mildred. do you spend the whole
night In tears?"
Sometimes" she replied; "but, Ra-
oul, do not talk to me about it, would
rather speak on any other subject than
myself"

One morning she was quite alone In

their beautiful young hostess with
them: but she thought Sir Raoul looked

him. She was busily engaged in read
