The guitar is coming into consider
able favor in London, especially among
American girls, one of the last to take
it up being Miss Reid, the daughter of
the American ambassador. She has a
pleasant singing-voice, particularly
well suited to Spanish and Italian
songs. Apart from it's musical charms,
the guitar, with it's great sash of gay
ribbon, is particularly decorative in
the hands of a pretty woman, and the
young daughter of the ambassador
makes a graceful picture with hers.
Miss Padelford, another American girl
who is a great favorite in London, is
quite an accomplished performer on
the guitar, and when she is invited to
country house parties is always asked
to bring it. 1t is the banjo which the
Duchess of RoXburghe favors and
plays really well. She sings coon
songs delightfully."-. 1t is said it is to
her rendering of these simple ditties
that she owes her great popularity
with the Princess of Wales, who is
very fond of them. The duke at first
thought it excessively mira dig for his
wife to perform on the banjo, but the
appreciation of the Princess of Wales
induced him to change promptly his
views, and now he is quite proud of
her accomplishment He has, however,
made hard and fast rule that she
must sing negro songs only before her
friends She has quite a collection of
banjos. three of which We're presented
to her on her marriage One of these
has the reputation of being among the
most valuable instruments of it's kind
