ritable Entertainments.

The real close of the London season
was Mrs. Pagets big bazaar, which
beat the record of all charitable en-
tertainments. Never before have Eng
lish great ladies done more than lend
their names to a bazaar, and perhaps
grace it for an hour. On this occasion
they all worked really hard, and the
Duchess of Devonshire, the Duchess of
Portland, the Duchess of Marlborough
the Duchess of Sutherland, the Duchess
of Montrose the Duchess of Bedford,
the Duchess of Wellington, the Duchess
of Abercorn, Lady Cadogan, Lady Lon
donderry, Lady Lansdowne, Princess
Demidoff, Princess Alexis Dolgorouki,
and many others sacrificed two days
as we'll as one night to help in what
was not only a good cause, but the
fashionable event of the season, says a
London correspondent. Mrs. Mackay
gave over $4,000 in beautiful things,
which she ordered to be made especial
ly in Paris, and had made for herself
the most charming little American flag
in SapphireS, diamonds and rubieS,
which she wore as a badge on each
day of the bazaar. Mrs. Bradley-Mar-
tin, while she was in America, collect
ed any amount of beautiful silver for
the same purpose, and Mrs. A. j. DreX-
ell was also very generous, while those
who also helped at the American stall
included Miss Choate and Mrs. Padel-
ford. Mrs. Brown Potter, who worked

delicately painted with pink roses, and
one of pale-green crepe de chine, with

American beauties, looked neat and
smart as society waitress; Mrs. New

with a pretty feather tOque. Miss Ward
(whose brother, Mr.. Reginald Ward, is
known in London as the Copper
King") was also helping at the bar, as
we'll as the Marchioness of Anglesey,
Lady EdmonstOne, and last, but not
least, Miss Amalia Kussner, the IA
nous miniature painter, who has just
returned from Russia, and was most
beautifully dressed in a dress of pale
pink muslin, with a soft toque of pink
tulle, and round her neck a necklace
of big uncut rubies and diamonds,
which she brought back with her from
Russia, as we'll as a ruby and diamond
bracelet and magnificent pearl and dia-
mond pin, which were the gifts of the
Gar and Czarina-San Francisco Ar
gOnaut.
