The FAMOUS swan DINNER.
olvsn BY the Fsthsr-ln-Lsw Of the New
German Ambassador.

German Ambassador.
The appointment Of Count John
Bernstein as German Ambassador TO
this country recalls the famous swan
dinner which was given at Delimoni.
cos In the early SOS by the late Mr..
Lackemeyer. bis father-in-law.
This gentleman was a wealthy i'm.
porter and he received from the Unit
ed States Government the sum OF
$4,000 ~ a refund OF excessive duties
e1acted from him on importations.
He dedicated this sum to a CASTRO
nomic monument, and never in the
history Of New York restaurants, says
Town and Country, has such a gor-
geous entertainment for a limited
number Of guests been rivalled.
Scventy-tvo friends were asked.
There was one table covered with
hoRera, excepting a space in the cen
tire. left for a lake and a border around
the table for the plates. This lake
was an oval pond, thirty feet in length
By nearly the width Of the table, en-.
closed by q delicate golden wire net
work reaching from table to ceiling,
making the whole one grand cage.
In the lake swan four swans,
brought from Central Park, surround
ed by high banks Of flowers, which
prevented them from splashing the
water on the table. Golden cages
with canaries we're hung from the
ceiling and the entire room was one
msh Of iiowers. 1t was a dinner at
which all the most fashionable women
Of that day were present.
The menu was done in gold and
was long and elaborate, after the fash.
ion Of that period, The hors d'oeuvre
was tlmbale o Ia Conde, and there
were two soups, relieve. three en-.
trees, a sorbet tFuffed chickens and

Strengthening a Worn Petticoat.
A favorite silk petticoat became
wcrn near the bottom, the seams and
breadths giving away beneath the
ruffes. 1t was not worth expend-
ing money for new silk, but the own
er disliked to discard it altogether,
so repaired 1t in this fashion: Two
and a half yards of heatherbloOm
were purchased as near the shade OF
the silk as possible. The bottom OF
the skirt was faced up knee-high on
the wrong side with this, thus
strengthening the worn parts be-
meath the ruffes. A deep iounce OF
the heatherbloom was attached to
the top of the facing, on the under
side, of course. This was not very
full. but caused the skirt to set out
nicely around the bottom and took
much of the wear and tear on Of the
already weakened silk ruffies. The
skirt has now stood several addi-
tional months wear, and seems good
