PHOTOS IN COLOR

PARIS. July 6.-Color photography is
now an accomplished and practical fact
The discoveries are two Lyons scien-
lists. Messrs. Augusta and Louis Lu-
miere. and they have Just demonstrated
in Paris their system OF photography
in colors, which shows a great advance
upon the efforts IN this direction OF
LippmRn In 1891. which were so clever
and were greeted with such enthusiasm,
but which have hitherto not produced
very practical results.
Lippman's method was spectroscopic.
In the method of NM. Lumiere the col
ors are brought by the operator himself;
they are fixed in the proper relative
proportions by the light. This system
makes use of what is called auto-chrome
plates. The plates are covered with
colored powders (orange red, yellow,
and violet, corresponding to the three
primitive colors n nature. red, yellow.
and blue The powder Is made of the
starch OF potato in grains of infinitesi-
mai proportions. This powder forms

society girls for the ordeal. lessons in
court etiquette are given IN the Court
School of Dancing and Departments
name which suggests the Turveydrop
establishment.
Besides drilling in the actual court
ceremony, the school teaches old-woFld
dances and movements which give dig
nifty I'D grace to the carriage. Fan ex-
ercises and the SPANISH saraband fig-
ure In the curriculum.
Under King Edward and Queen Alex
andra. who have substituted the evening
court for the tiresome daylight draw
ing room" the etiquette Of presenta-
tions has been much sinPlifed. In
Queen Victoria's time the debutante had
to rehearse the removal Of her glove,
the entry TO the throne room. the curtsy
and kissing the Queens hand, the grad
uated curtsies TO each Of the royal fam
lily, and retiring backward with her
train. Today only two cursies are nee
essary, one 10 the King and one TO the
Queen. and the debutante then passes
straight on TO the supper room.
But 90 give the debutante confidence,
she is instructed in every detail, from

CONTEST
IN LONDON THIS
YEAR IS A TIE

LONDON. July every London sea-
son produces a girl beauty, who Is talk
ed about and written up. until the young
woman's head is completely turned and
she loses all powers of even cOnvers-
ing.
Last year the acknowledged beauty
was Miss Ruby Lindsey. This year Miss
Lindsey has been compelled to take a
back seat and Miss Mary Curzon and
Miss Marguerite Drexel, daughter OF
Anthony Drexel. are running dead
heat.
The former is the daughter Of col
onel Of only moderate means. while the
latter is admittedly a great heiress. The
two girls so far are completely unspoilt
and are firm friends. Artists do not
hesitate 20 declare that Miss Curzon
is the most perfect type OF English
beauty seen in London for many years.
but they admitted that Miss Drezel's
expression makes up for her some
what irregular features.
Great preparations are being made for
the Drexel ball. which takes place on
July 9. at Carlton House Terrace. The
rooms will not be overloaded with fiow-
ers nor will there be any lavish ex-
penditure but 1t will probably be the
smartest ball Of the season, always eX-
cepting the last Dorchester House ball.

OF "OLD ARTHUR

LONDON, July AT court, where the
late Gen. Sir Arthur Ellis. who died
with such tragic suddenness during the
gala performance for the King OF Den
mark at the Opera House recently. was
extremely popular, nobody mourned
more deeply for "OId Arthur" as he
was aftectfonately called. than Queen
Alexandra. who wept the whole morn
Ing after his death.
The Queen had known Sir Arthur FOR
forty years. always called him Arthur
and sat By his bedside hour after hour
when he was III some years sgo.
During her recent trip abroad the
Queen. while in Florence. called on the

NEW CLAIMANT
FOR THE THRONE
OF LUXEMBOURG

PARIS, July 6.-The latest claimant to
q throne is Count Nuremberg, who is
fighting for the sovereignty Of the
F'rench-speaking Grand Duchy of Lux
emburg. a miniature state Of about
1000 square miles, wedged in between
the frontiers Of France, Germany and
Belgium.
The reigning grand duke is in q poor
state of health. and has no male heir.
Count Nuremberg claims 70 be the last
descendant of William Prince OF Orange.
who ruled in Luxembourg two CEN
turtles ago, and afterward became VIII
liam III OF England. His descent from
dutch William Is morganatic. but
that does not trouble him. for he has
discovered a clause in the old family
records providing that II male issue
fails. the throne can descend in the
female line.
Rather inconsistency. however. he has
protested against the proposal to give
the succession to the reigning grand
dukes eldest daughter. Princess Marie
Adelaide, a girl of thirteen.
The counts claim has nearly resulted
in a duel between himself and Baron
Lyberg. the Luxembourg minister of
finance. who wrote him an insulting let

limiting that unpleasant things might
come out about his antecedenls. An
enforced apology from the baron saved

her parents to come into the cellar,
saying she had some thing to show
them. Unsuspectingly they went.
The daughter climbed out, bolted the
door behind her and ran around the
other exit and fastened it. Then she

her marriage She said she would
leave them there until they did.
