THE DUBLIN DRAWING-RooM.
When a Lady Is Presented the Lord
Lieutenant Kisses Her Upon
the Cheek.

1t is curious to note the difference
between the Dublin drawing-rooms
and the queens drawing-rooms, as they
are held at buckingham palace. The
Irish court functions take place in the
evening about ten o'clock and, what is
popular departure from the accepted
English custom, light refreshments are
provided before the guests depart.
These refreshments are arranged on
Bullets down one side of ST. Patrick S
hall, and are always eaten standing;
there is no sit-down supper. The throne
room contains chair of state. in front
o. which the lord lieutenant stands
with his wife by his side
When any lady is presented the lord
lieutenant shakes hands with her and
kisses her upon the cheek. She courte-
sizes to him in return and bows to his
wife, as she retires toward the picture
gallery. In the case of lady who is
only attending 4 drawing-room she re-
ceives no kiss. Men almost inyaria bly,
accompany their wives and daughters
TO Dublin drawing-room, and wom-
ans court dress has the same long train
With feathers and veil, as is the rule
here. Many other arrangements are
similar to those at Buckingham palace.
The hall of the castle is lined with SOL
1iers and the staircase with rows of
servants in splendid hveries. Cards are
given up much in the same way as in
England; the first card in the corridor
md the second at the entrance to the
:hroneroom. On either side of the dais
On which the viceregal couple stands
ire two Enclosures called ''pens," which
re filed by members of the household,
.esides those staying at the castle.
When the lord lieutenant and his wife
cave the throneroom procession is
.ormed and his seni-royal position is
emphasized by the fact that he walks
before his wife, who is followed in her
urn by members of her house party
md the household.-London Mail.

THE FALL OF ILOILO.
Graphic Description of the Capture
OF the Philippine Stronghold
by Irish Soldier.

There have been several accounts OF
the capture of noilo, but the following.
from a Manila letter in the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat, is the most succinct
and vivid yet heard. 1t was given be-

CAPTURED THE SHIP.
Sea Captain Has q Hard Time with
a Cargo of Goats.
They Devoured the Larger Part OF
His Vessel I'm q Disastrous and
Costly Attempt to Import
Them Into Havana.

The notice of the dissolution Of the
firm of Hall, Pryor & Davis, says the
Times of Cuba, recalls to mind the sad
experience of Mr.. Pryor, the pioneer
cattle trader, who was the first to ar
rive in Havana harbor with a shipload
of cattle Immediately after the raising
of the blockade.
Mr.. Pryor came from Texas, and find
wired his agents at Galveston of his
success. Now, it seems that upon the
outskirts of Galveston, where there
had been an accumulation of old stove
pipes and tomato cans for many years,
there thrived great numbers of goats.
A happy thought struck the Galveston
agents. The people Of Havana were
starving. cattle were expensive, and
here were goats by the hundreds that
could be obtained for a mere song.
Why not ship them to the starving peo-
pie of Havana?
Immediately message was sent over
the cable to Mr.. Pryor asking him if he
could sell goats as well as cattla. The
cattieman, elated by his success, and
feeling sure that goats would fill long
felt want in the devastated isle. imme-
diately replied to his agents instruct
ing them TO ship a load at once.
1t was not till the captain put to sea
that his troubles began. The goats
were hungry, and after eating up all
the hay which had been shipped for
their benefit, and finding neither to-
mato cans nor stovepipes upon which
to regale themselves, they began chew
ing up the rigging. The captain threw
empty beer bottles at them till his sup
ply of beer was exhausted, and then
he cursed the goats and the men who
sent them into the deepest depths Of
the sea. But his troubles had only just
begun.
The goats got familiar with the sail
ors, climbed into their hunks, chewed

There never was the least trouble
until the Goddard family moved into
the neighborhood. says the Chicago
Tribune.
Every sunny morning for 20 years
Miss Lucy Perkins had hung Peters
cage on the cherry tree behind the
summer kitchen. And for 20 years
Peter had been a model OF all that a
green parrot should be. Like his mis-
tress, Miss Lucy, aged II, and her SIS
tiers, Miss Mary and Miss Jane, slight
~ younger, Peter was dignifed, re-
spectacle and well bred.
But when the Goddard family moved
into River place they hung big gilt
cage on their front porch. In the cage
was a big green parrot. His resem-
blance to Peter was so striking that
Miss Lucy noticed it when the sisters
went to call on the newcomers.
"How much this bird resembles dear
Peter" she said, as she stepped up to
the cage.
The parrot cooked wicked eye at the
old ladies and whistled shrilly: Three
little maids from school are we.'
Then as they drew back in consterna-
ton he shrieked: Damn it! I'm

KITTENS WITHOUT LEGS.
Two Feline Freaks I'm which Every
Cat Lover in Baltimore Takes
a Deep Interest.

When the stork called up Mrs. Sarah
Alexander's cat recently it neglected to
bring around enough legs for the lit
tie kittens that came along.
Mrs. Alexander lives at No. 532 Bid
die alley, Baltimore, and her tabby has
startled the neighborhood and the town
by presenting litter of kittens two of
which are devoid of hind legs.
There came originally five of the 1T
tie rascals, but the popularity of the
legless twain was of such character
that two of the normal brothers died
