the most f1attering compliments from
the Prince of Wales in tribute to her
great beauty, and the Princess of
Pless, elder sister of Miss West, is no
less famed for her loneliness of form,
manner and face.
Miss West is very accomplished. She
| sings, plays, paints, writes and does
all of those things which smack of
wealthy and refined environments and
gain for a woman the envy of all that
is ideal. She is also athletic, for her
name as a whip, an amateur, golfer and
a swimmer is almost as far-famed as is
the renown of her beauty and grace.
Like tE-l majority of the women of
her set. Miss West has a fad. Her
hobby is to don an old gown and go
among the poor Gf London, giving them
assistance incognito. She does great
deal of this sort of work and gives
largely to charitable enterprises; but
as her donations are contributed anony-
mOuSly, no one is the wiser except the
most intimate of her friends.
AS the Duchess of Westminster, Miss
West will enjoy an immense income.
With his new title his grace, the young
duke. came into possession of miles of
land in every section of London aud a
large number of houses situated re-
SptCllNCly III IIOSNGuOL plcCC, Del
grave square and Ebury street, all of
which are situated in the heart of Lon
dom fashionable quarte-. And besides
there are extensive properties in Che
shire Berkshire and Flint, Scotland. The
beautiful estate of Cliveden-on-the-
Thames was also the property of the
late Duke of Westminster before its
purchase by Mr.. William Waldorf As
tor for a fabulous sum.
The young Duke of Westminster has,
not reached his majority, and will not
be years old for some months to
come. After his marriage he will re-
turn to Africa, but not to his former
position as aide-de-camp to the British
high commissioner, Sir Alfred Miller.
He will be an officer in the imperial
yeomanry, which is formed of dukes,
earls, barons, lords and England 3
sons of bluest blood. 1t is a very arts
tocratic regiment, and will be support
ed by the Highland yeomanry, which
is formed of old warriors who have
seen many years of active service. The
imperial ycomanry is known as the
rough rider regiment of Great Britain,
because of it's similarity to the rough
riders of the Spanish American war.
The duke will only remain a week
with his bride after the wedding, then
he will bid farewell to her, for events
in Africa are demanding the attention
of England's young blood, and 1t was
never g. Westminster who failed to an
swer the call OF his country and his
queen.
London society listens to the story,
then sighs and says: THE poor crea-
ture; ard she is SO young. Will he ever
return 20 herr"

A goodbye kiss is q little thing,
With your hand on the door to go,
But it takes the venom out of the sting
OF a thoughtless word or cruel fling
That you made hour ago.
a kiss of greeting is sweet and rare
After the toll of the day.
And it smooths the burrows plowed by
care
The lines on the forehead you once called
fair
In the wears that have flown away.
It's a little thing to say: you are kind;
I love you, may dear each night;
But it sends a thrill through the heart 1
find
For love is tender, as love is blind
AS we climb life's rugged height.
We starve each other for loves caress;
We take, but we do not give.
1t seems so easy some soul to bless,
But we dole the love grudgingly less and
less
Till tbs bitter and hard to live.

Strange English Titles.

frequently paid in articles instead of
money This is especially the case in
some country parishes in the north,
where. the people are mostly small
peasant farmers. A vicar of the writ
er's acquaintance is usually paid his
tithes in the form of sacks of apples,
potatoes and swede turnips. butter,
poultry, etc.
In one case a peasant farmer offered
to pay off his tithes by working in the
rector's garden for twelve months in
the evenings, and his wife undertook
to bake all the bread for every week s
supply, and do ail the cleaning and
sarubbing required.

Famous Songs Women Have Com
posed

It is not generally known that women
have composed a majority of the well
known sentimental songs loved by men
and women. Lady John Scott gave to the
musical world annie Laurie" Lady
Arthur Hill is author of that charming
ballad. 'In the Cleaning" and the Hon
Mrs. Elizabeth Norton is responsible for
that languorous melody ~Juanita, Lady

to a woman, the late Mrs. Newell Martin

meloday of 81 Remember, I Remember, .
and the musical pathos of "Auld Robin
Gray originated in the brain of Lady
Ann Landsay. Lady Marine, charming
Scotch woman, has contributed two songs
that need only to be sung in any cline
throw his plaid cap to the breeze. There
are THE Campbells Are Coming" and
"The Land of the Leal" She also wrote

Long.
Paris, March 2S.-By the time you
read this it will be almost time Tor
society to come back from the Riviera
and then for the London season!
Speculation is rife as to the tone
which the London season will assume.
viii May and June be deadly dull.
with all the smart men at the war and
all the smart women in SackclOth and
ashes, or will a delightful season of
sales and bazarS and war entertain
ments keep London gay!
The queen has promised that she will
either hold her drawing per-
sonally or will request that thorough
society woman, the Princess of Wales,
TO preside for her, and, besides this,
Victoria has signified that, If her
health allows she will be present at
several garden parties and in other
ways let the English people know that
their queen still lives.
Many handsome gowns are being
made for the late Paris season on the
Riviera and at St. Moritz, which has
become very fashionable; and large
boxes are also shipped to Monte Carlo
healthful heights, laden with fashion s
requirements. which consist principally
now Of small belongings for the toilette,
of which there were never so many.
The tendency is still toward the light

One is the walking hat of Nile blue vel

TWO NEW COATS.
Two coats were sketched a few days
ago. worn respectively by the Countess
of Essex and Mrs. Arthur Paget. One
of the coats was a little tan Elton, with
spake front, long and pointed and
trimmed with braid. The other was
the new REFER with broad white satin

line with one jewelled button. Its main
feature was stitching of contrasting
silk which ornamen1ed the darts of the
little coat Both Of these coats were
made in Paris

might apply to the little coats of

who will exercise can work off her SUI
perfuous fat and acquire grace while
doing so.
It is absolutely necessary to exercise
in undress. The maids and matrons of
Gotham have adopted a simple little
uniform consisting of baggy boomers
and loose blouse. Dressed in this they
perform their exercises night and
morning. They practice standing on
both feet, with abdomen drawn in and
bust extended; they also practice the
correct walk, with chin elevated.
A horizontal bar is by no means nee
essary, but it is inexpensive and very
useful as an exercises. After a little
practice it is easy to swing by the
hands from. the bar, and in short time
the more athletin of the fair athletes
are able to swing round and round it.

In the Sanctuary.

He is waiting. ever waiting.
Through the brightness of the day,
Through the sound of many footsteps
And the clamor of the way.
From the first glad hours of morning
To the solemn hush of noon
Through the bleallness of December,
And the sultriness of June.
He is waiting, ever waiting,
Through the stiffness of the night.
When the moon rides high in heaven,
And the silent stars are bright;
Where the pale lamp burns forever
Like a guide to weary feet.
And the very silence murmurs:
"Wanderer, pause, the rest is sweet"
He is waiting, ever waiting,
Through the days and months and
years,
He has peace for bruised spirits
He has balm for bitter tears
On the cross, through death and anguish
Once He made us all His own.
o, We thoughtless sons of Adam
Shall He wait and watch alone?

ORGAN RECITAL
AT CENTRAL.
Third OF Series OF Organ
Recital at Central Was
aMarvell0uS Success.

The committee having in charge
the organ recitals of Central Church
have reason to congratulate them
selves upon the marvellous success
Of the third one given in the church
on last Tuesday evening.
The great gathering present was
made up OF the best people in the
city, including large numbers of
music lovers and critics, all of whom
left the church highly delighted and
enthusiastic over the entire pro-
gram.
That Prof. Irwin ]. Morgan is
gaining in popularity with the peo-
pie OF Wilmington, was demonstra-
ted by the packed house, many
standing throughout the entire pro-
gram, and by the long and hearty
applause, given after the rendition
of each selection.
While every selection rendered
was highly enjoyed, one in partic-
ular seemed to hold the enthusiastic
audience spell-bound and this was
Nicholas J. Lemons "Storm and
Prayer which was executed IN
the most masterful manner.
Indeed, so real did the storm ap-
pear. that during the peals OF
thunder crashing through the
building, many felt themselves un-
consciously looking about for um-
brellas to protect them from the
rain on their way home. No one
doubts Mr.. Morgans ability to
execute in the most mastery man
ner any selection given him.
The committee i'll charge have
certainly been fortunate in securing
one so efficient as Prof. Morgan for
these recitals, SO highly enjoyed by
every one.
Mrs. W. Il. Smalley, the soprano
in Central Church Choir, and Mr..
". Henry Collision, tenor singer,
were the sololsts of the evening and
both were much appreciated.
A pleasing incident of the even
ing, was the ovation given Mrs.
smallcy upon her first and second
appearance to sing.
The pleasing part Of the ovation
given her was the fact of it being
SO hearty and SO general, such as
is unusual.
Her rendition Of "From all Eter-
nity,' and 81 Know that My Re
deemer Liveth, took the audience
by storm and the applause that tol-
lowed each selection was we'll de-
served.
Central Church is to be corgratu-
lated upon being able to secure one
so gifted and so worthy as Mrs.
Smalley, for their choir
Her friends and many others,
hope she NAV exercise her wonder
tul talent many years, for it does
not seem right that it be buried out
of sight.
1t Is hoped these recitals will not
be given up, since they are so much
enjoyed and are an education to the
people.
