BELFAST, July 9.-The situation

tional duty of SO cents on whisky, and
the consequent great drop in the con-
sumption of that article becomes more

The firm in question had large con-

LONDON, July 9.-Mrs. Miller Gra-

as a big London hostess Wednesday
night at the house. she has taken from
Dowager Lady Nunburnhomle in Gros-
venor square.
Mrs Graham had invited her party
for a much earlier date, but was
obliged to postpone it. Then Lady Ar
thur Paget went to her rescue and so
did Mrs H. Williams-in the latter case
for a substantial remuneration-and
helped the somewhat nervous hostess
make quite success
When the night set for the function
arrived all went well. There was ex-
ira extravaganza in the way of flow
ers, and the superb ballroom was Law
ishly decorated with them. Dinner
was served in the beautiful dining
room at round tables. The dinner was
very long The courses were many,
but excellent, and the flowers were
ma gnificent.
Anna Pavlova, the famous Russian
had never been seen on the London
stage.
The most beautifully dressed woman
in the company was Mrs. Frank j..
Mackey. She was in shimmering gold,
yelled with fine gold net and heavy
embroidered flowers, each blossom
studded with gems and swinging
fringes of golden crystals. She was
smothered in jewels. Across the front
of her dress was a shield Of diamonds
reaching from shoulder to shoulder and
fastened with diamond straps.
Mrs James Henry Smith looked dis
tinguished in black with gorgeous
pearls
Mrs. Newhouse was in cream satin,
heavily embroidered with white and
silver lilies. Her pearls were worth a
fortune.

KAISER GIVES UP
HIS 'BEEREVENING'
Ruler Breaks His Promise to
Yaclltsnlen for Mrs. Goe-

Especial Gable 10 The Call

BERLIN, July 9.Avisitors who have
returned from Kiel comment wonder
ingly on the kaiseTs breaking his
promise to Germany in favor of a sud
den decision to accept an invitation of
Mrs. Goelet. for whose steam yacht he
seems to have a remarkable liking. The
kaiser took Kiel by surprise when he
visited Mrs Goelet, who, of course,
is an old friend
subsequently at the end of the
week, instead of attending the beer
evening at Travemuende as he has
done uninterruptedIy every year the
regrets and remained with Mrs. Goe-
let instead.
Already the German yachtsmen are
disgusted with their kaiser who is
reported to have displayed extreme
racing. Others say that his visit to
the Goelet yacht was deliberately
planned by the kaiser in order to show
that he was not the least jealous of
American successes, but thoroughly
pleased to have a first rate American
yacht raise the standard Of racing
during Kiel week, which yearly grows
worse.
Strong suspicion exists in well in
formed quarters that the kaiser feels
far less fit than he admits, hence all
shore festivities have been abandoned.
Domestic policies are greatly distress
ing the monarch, having an i'll effect
on his health.
