Hasty Observations.

Some years ago an authoress of on
siderable note was entering Il place of
public entertainment when the sound
of her own name uttered by a group
just in front of her attracted her at
tention, and she discovered that a gem
tleman in the company of several la

some distance to his companions as
herself.
"Oh, dear, she's not at all pretty!'
said one of the ladies, putting up her
opera glass.
Quite vulgar looking said another,
adjusting hers to a better focus.

that ever from here. But you can't
appreciate her ugliness without seeing

More Talk of Peace.

st. Petersburg, Jan. 9.-The confer
ences which Emperor Nicholas has
been holding with members of the
council of the empire, M. White and
other ministers and advisers on the
internal and external situation have
not yet been concluded, but nothing
has occurred which would indicate
that the government is prepared to
depart from its present program of
continuing the war to the bitter end.
Nevertheless talk of peace was heard
in many quarters, the foundation for
it being ascribed to Foreign Minister
Lamsdorf's alleged position in favor
of such a course, on the ground that,
aside from the humiliation to military
prestige involved, it would only mean
the REIMBURSEMENT of Manchuria. to
which Russia is already formally
pledged.
New York laps Celebrate Victory.
New York, Jan. 9.-The fall of
Port Arthur vas celebrated here at a

whom attended, and the only invited
guests were General Stewart L. Wood
ford, former minister to Spain, and
Alexander Tison. both of whom spoke.
The meeting was presided over by S.
Uchida, consul general of Japan. Ad-
dresses were made in their native
tongue by fifteen Japanese merchants
and professional men, and Consul
General Uchida, General Woodford
and Mr.. Tison spoke in English.
