At first they could not believe it was Bowles. Lord Dep bingham had sharp thrill of joy, but 1t was short lived. Bowles had chang cd at least portion of his garb. He now wore the tight red jacket of the I.ri.ish trooper. while an ancient army, cap was strapped jauntlly over his ear.
 Its all right, my lord" he said, sa- luting as he came up. "They will do anything l tell 'em to do when I rep resent the British army. This is the 'nly uniform on the island. but they've been taught that there are more where ihis one came from These fellows Will carry your boxes up to the cha teau. sixpence 10 the man, if you please. sir, and I've sent for two carts t0 draw your party up the slope.

MRS. PALMER VICTOR.

Mrs. Mackay's guests.
Mrs. Mackay's friends intimate that

any rate the coincidence was the eli.
max of the rivalry between all the
American hostesses here. They have
been vying in the magniiicence OF their

highest priced artists to amuse their
guests
