Berlin was IN possession of a detailed
report of everything that had taken

eighteen hours previously. That this

in court of the entire affair, in the
flight of the Baroness from France,
and in the disgrace of the old General,
whose principal fault was a senile
infatuatiOn for a beautiful, clever, and
unscrupulous woman.
That she should have been able to
plav the role which she did in Paris
for so long without arousing suspicion
was ali the more surprising, in view
OF a sensational episode of which she
had previously been the heroine IN
London There the Baroness had i
beautiful house for a time in Queens
Gate, HYDE Park. She was a welcome
guest in all the diplomatic and official
salons of the British metropolis; the
brilliance of her conversation, her
perfect taste in dress, and her apparent
wealth and breeding, all contributing
to her social success. Unfortunately

Feminine diplomacy may be divided
into uve classes. There are the am
bassadresses who are, as / have stated,
lar more useful 10 their Governments
than their husbands. Then, there are
those women. sometimes OF royal
blood, usual members OF the grand
monde. but always Of assured rank,
who make no secret Of the fact that all
their interests are centered upon IN
ternatiOnal politics. and who devote
their energies and their skill toward
the accomplishment OF the purposes
which their sovereign, or the Power
for whom they work, has in view.

Denmark the author of the Franco Russian alliance
and Nine de Novikof who through her influence
was able in 1877 to prevent Great Britain from
going to war against Russia on behalf of the Turks.
Cream of the Secret Service
THE third class of diplomatists in petticoats and
perhaps the most important of all, those
men of birth and breeding who keep their political
activity under and who may be described as
constituting the of that secret service which
almost every Government finds it necessary main
tain. Sometimes they in receipt of generous
pay, but often content to work without any
reward, prompted either by patriotism, else
actuated by the fascination which international
politics seems to possess for many women. 1t is
they who are frequently intrusted with the most
delicate and intricate negotiations Their reports
and recommendations usually command a far
greater degree of attention and consideration
the part of their respective Governments than
those of the officially accredited ENJOYS, and
whereas the latter the ornamental figure
heads OF the diplomatic representation, it is the
of the secret service who the chief
factors and the prime movers in many interna-
tional episode.

such a woman this. Often her identity and the

The most notable agent OF this kind whose case
has come under my notice is the Baroness de kaua,
widow of an Austrian nObleman and divorced wife
of General Jung, of the cleverest officers on the
general staff of the French army. When Marshal
MacMahOn President of the French Republic,
and General de Cissey his Minister of War, she
managed not only to form acquaintance with the
latter, but likewise to win his friendship and

apartment within stones throw of the presidential
palace, and was accustomed to receive de Cissey
frequently at d61enler and at dinner. On the DAYS
when the cabinet councils held the General

of their timber to stull and shore up
the excavations and protect the earth

100 feet vide. Immense smokestacks

pound of hammers and the steady i'm.
pact OF drills sounded everywhere,
while the earth trembled and beloved

Great hollows, like cathedral nayes,

had lain in the rock ribbed earth.
