Correspondence Of The Journal. s..
London, Jan. 4.-Holyrood Palace, once
the home OF Mary Queen Of Scots, but
practically untenanted for over a century,

palace in the story Of the Sleeping
Beauty" did when the Prince aroused the
kings daughter with a kiss. The great
kitchens of the ancient royal residence In
Edinburgh, In which for $50 years moth

plume. Under the left ~brim toreador

BLACK CHANTILLY.
This is not covering to appeal to the
frugal mind, as it's present magnificence
can only be attained through the most
expensive materials. Nevertheless the
form is sufficiently simple to be followed
by any tolerably expert sewer, and a vast
diminution in cost could be made by using
a Powered silk instead Of the rich Chan
tilly lace here employed
The ruffles, and cape collar are made Of

Of tulle, on q white chiffon foundation,

HOLLYWOOD PALACE,

and the glories of the levee held by the
latter sovereigns are remembered
throughout Scotland to this day. 1t was
attended by over 1000 Scotchmen and
women of high degree, who were delighted
to find the king wearing Highland cos
tune. Some Of the burly Scots, it is true,
were inclined to approach their sovereign
with more regard for heartiness than for
strict court etiquette, but George ".
had a sense of humor and was consid-
erably more tickled than offended by his
guests bluffness.

husband OF Queen Mary had Rizzio muir

STYLISH ULSTERS

Scotch cheyiot, in a salt and pepper
mixture, is the texture of this useful gar
ment, which exemplifies the present dres-
sy tendencies.
The back is half fitting, two side pieces
shaping the central one, which is without
the usual seam fitted neatly into the waist,
The fronts are both supplied with fancy
bone buttons and are arranged to lap over
at either side. Black velvet, prepared TO
Withstand the damage of rain, is cut in
pointed bands, which effectively borders
the cape, collar, pockets and wide sleeves.
The small revers show only the stitching
of the double breasted fronts and, to
ease the weight, the rich black and whit g
silk lining goes no further than the hips.
The Toreador hat is a suitable accom-
pantment to such covering. It IS Of

A VALUABLE PLANT.

The most valuable flower in the world is
supposed to be an orchid belonging to Mrs
George B. Wilson of Philadelphia, for which
she asks $40, O00 At the recent flower show
in Philadelphia Mrs. Wilson exhibited eighty
varieties of orchids, wonderfully fairy-like
things, the butterflies Of the vegetable world.

One such chapeau, photographed on
this page, is entirely of "a net lace,
showing thick pattern, and scalloped
edge with scant overlapping founces,

shaping folded scarf and side bow, with
a doubled end that drops over the hair.
Under the brim loose fold of the velvet

STYLISH ULSTER.

i11z-HE LONG, half fitting coats, ia
e. milarly known as listers, are
h. worn again. They are more
@l clarifying than in the old
shapes, which were scarcely
more than buffers against dust and rain,
and many are the uses to which smart
New York women are putting them.
They are used for travelling and SIM
ple driving wraps, dull-day matinee wear,
shopping, etc, and with the heaviest ma
terials, pretty silk gimps, and yelyets,
are employed to give them quite dash
ing air. For, unlike the loose-back rag
Ian, which permits only of stitching ana
invisible fastenings, the ulster is a wrap
that allows much variation ia trimming.

sion voted to eXonerate Mrs. Alice Bradford
Wiles Of the charge Of writing an anonymous

out here month OF so ago. He has been
busy investigating. It Is understood the
Department OF Agriculture viii put in an
experimental farm for tea. J,st where
the experiments viii be conducted is not

nishing 20 the Government the land and

Wherever the Government believes the

THE COLORS OF STARS.
In Hues as Well as in Brightness There
Is a Difference.
Z. W. Mander. in knowledge.

Z. W. Mander, in knowledge.
The wide difference which there is be-
tween star and star as to brightness is
apparent on the very first glance toward
the heavens; IL requires a more careful
scrutiny 70 realize that they differ also in
their color, and ia the character Of their
SHINING The anclents carried their dis
elimination of the difference OF the
brightness Of stars so far as TO recognize
six magnitudes. but when il came TO the
question Of color, they hardly noted any
difference at all. The stars IN general
were described as yellow, six only being
recorded as fiery OF these six we
should class five as being distinctly
orange or red-Antaros. Betclgense. Al
debaran, ArctuTus. and PolluX. The
sixth. Sinus. is to us an intensely white
star, and there have been many discus
sions as to whether it has changed its
color in the last 1000 years. or whether
the description given of it-"hery red
Is due TO some mistake I'm the record, or
whether the excessive scintillation Of the
star may account for 60. For. as we see
Il now when near the horizon. mOmen-
tary fash OF vivid red flame shoots out
from time to time due to the irregular
dispersion of its light in passing through
the tremUlous atmosphere.
Assuming that thN light Of any star is
partly white and partly colored. we may
divide the stars into classes, depending
entirely upon the depth of tint. A i've
fold division suggests itself. something
TO the following effect: Q) Pure white
90 tinted. 90 cOlored. CD fully ColOred,
(5) deeply colored. After the question
Of the depth Of tint which the stars
show, comes the question OF the color
Of that tint. For naked eye stars the
more refrangible cOlOrs do not come into
consideration. The range IS from orange
red UP to yelIowish green. or, possibly,
I'm a silgle instance-that Of Beta LiDTae
to green. Alpha Lyrae. and possibly
one or two other stars. have a distinct
blush tnge, but IN general stars not
passed as white may be very well
scheduled under one Of the five follow
ing heads; Cd red yellow, % orange,
CD orange yellow, (B dish orange, t5l
yellOWish green. In working upon star
cOlOrs with the naked eye it is i'm
possible 20 use any artificial standard
OF color but the wide field OF view, and
the ease and rapidity with which the at
tenti0n can be turned from one part
Of the heavens to the other Will much
more than make up for this deficiency.
The stars must be compared one with
another, the estimations of color must
be purely relative and the method will
be found much the most accurate pos
sible-
