Eugene in Her Glory

From an article by Clara Morris in
the Boollovers' Magazine we clip the
following description of the Empress
Eugene, the Empress of Sorrows, +"
as Miss Morris quotes it from one who
was connected with the American leg
alton when Eugene was in the height
of her glory and who was permitted
to escort her to her carriage on the
occasion:
"She was greatly addicted to wear
ing all the varying tones of lavender;
but one shade of mauve-a pinkish
mauve-she seemed passionately fond
of. She wore it that day. The sun
was shining brilliantly; the air seem
ed full of that suppressed excitement,
peculiar to Paris. The empress gown
was of transparent stuff women call
'organdie'-a white ground with a
wonderfully natural looking flower on
it. Then this thin Powered stuff was
worn over an under-slip of mauve silk
there seemed to be yards and yards
of it; it beloved all about her and
fairly filled the open landau.
Her slender little feet rested on a
cushion, and they were cleaning in

queenly head the pale blonde hair
crowned with a bonnet composed en-
tirely of violets, a great bunch of vio-
let's upon her breast; and over all a
tent-like sun shade of mauve satin,
flounced all over with white lace, lined
with white silk; while cunningly be-
tween mauve-outside and white-inside
was stretched a pink silk inner lining,
so that when the sunlight struck fair
ly upon the parasol an evanescent
pearly-pink tint fell upon the fair face
beneath it. And when the great open

it was as if the carriage was full,
filled with the plumy extravaganza of
the lilac's bloom-the poignant per-
fums of violets massed beneath the
loosely petaled opulence of the pur-

mendous mass of perfumed bloom her
lovely face smiled forth, as though the
prodigality of spring had been per-
sonified in her

Ocean as Motive Power

A writer in the Paris Revue des
Deux Mondes, M. CASTOR Cadoux, has
drawn a fancy picture of that happy
time when London, Paris and Berlin
will be lighted and warmed by electric
energy derived from the sea. In those
economic days, sea mills will skirt the
shore; they win convert the rise and
fall of the tides into electricity, which
wires will conduct to the capital cit
les to do work, to illuminate and to
warm. No more miners, we may sup
pose, pursuing their dangerous voca-
lions under ground, and no more gas
lights polluting the air we breathe,
and smoke-laden London fogs will
have ceased forever. AS the moon
does in single tide, on but a short
stretch of coast line, more work than
all our steam engines, here is a linn
itless supply of energy. The idea is
charming, not the least delightful part
of it being the satisfaction of yoking
the old satellite to our machinery and
making her run our trains and drive
our factories! Hitherto the least
available natural source of electricity
has been the sea.

Uncle Ned" Abercrombie, a noted
Maine guide, who comes from the
Rangeley lakes, told the following
story while in Boston recently:
did you ever hear about me and
the moose COW and calf?
81 was up to Peevy's camp at Moose
lake oostlick, we call it-and one
day went down the river to the dam
to git canoe. l were fetchin' it up,
and just as l were goin' to beach to
git out of the way of some men goin'
down to mend the dam, right there on
the shore stood a moose COW and a
calf. She lowered her head like she
wanted to charge and defend her calf.
Says l to her:
old gal, you've got a nice bossy
and you got the longest beard I ever
saw on COW, but you amt interferin'
with me, and I amt goin' to interfere
with you
Then l started up Bartlett's Brook
with the canoe, and comm around a
curve there was the COW and the calf
again. Says l, old gal, I'll give you
all you want with my gun if you foller
me any more.
But she wasn't interferin' much

Irish Crochet Coat.

A white Irish crochet coat is exceed
ingly smart in style made with a deep
collar of white linen, trimmed with
medallions of the lace, and having the
lace sleeve made with turn-back cuffs
Of the linen and also finished with
fluffy lace-trimmed undersleeves. A
coat of this style should be worn with
a linen skirt trimmed with lace in
sets. 1t would also look well with a
skirt of white mohair, with the soft,
silky finish. But then the cuffs and
collar of the coat should have white
silk substituted for the linen.
II is quite the smart fad of the day
when wearing lace coat to have the
hat made to match. With the Irish
crochet lace coat a white picture hat
is good style with the faring brim
faced with the coarse lace, and an
ostrich feather caught through the
brim and dropping over the hair at
the left side. If the wearer feels that
touch of color will make the hat
more distinctive it may have the
crown mass of green leaves or
formed entirely of pansies, forget-me-
nots or blue hyacinth blossoms.

Engineers find more difficulties in
the way than occur to dreamers. Lord
Kelvin showed, hree-and-twenty
years ago, says the London Telegraph,
how hard it would be to get any pow
err economically out of the rise and
fall of the tides on the seashore. Ten,
or IN some cases a hundred, times as
much might be done with tidal river.
The rise and fall of the tides between
Gravesend and London would repre-
sent an enormous amount of power:
but it so happens that the Thames
IS required for other purposes. Mr..
sutherland, in that ingenious work
Twentieth Century Inventions" cal
culates that the waves of the sea
would yield in few seconds as much
power as a tidal force elevating and
depressing the water level, say. eight
feet would do in as as many hours.
The infant born yesterday will be a
very old man before he sees London

other little requirements fulfilled bv

rents or waves.
