VICTORIA'S ANCESTRY. COUNTRY ETIQUETTE. ; Sense Advice to Those Who Live 1" . Snbnrban Districts. There are some people who imagine thai residents in the country are igno rant of and indifferent to all matters connected with etiquette, that they do not trouble either to know or to do the correct thing, that they throw all cere mony to the winds and follow the dic tates of their own sweet will in all so cial matters. This is, of course, an ex treme view, but it is one that is to a cer tain extent held by some folks, though it is all entirely erroneous, for country folk are not only just as, but even more, particular about these matters than are the dwellers in town, for new ideas and new ways, both of manner and speech, are not so easily accepted or adopted by the former as by the latter. There is no doubt less stiffness and more sociability in the country, for peo ple are thrown more together and are more dependent upon one another for companionship, for kindness and atten tion. It makes little or no difference who is one's neighbor in town, but in the country it is a most important mat ter. Although the rules of eti quette that govern society are the same in the country as in the town, there are one or two little customs that ore dissimilar, as, for in stance, the matter of first visits. The newcomer can neither call nor leave cards first. It is the residents who take the initiative in the matter, and this, whether they have a previous ac quaintance with the newcomer or not, and the same rule regarding first vis its holds good also in country towns and old cathedral cities. In the country, when visitors call early in the afternoon, which is often the case when people live at some dis tance from one another and have a long drive, tea should be ordered for them by the hostess, even if it should be ear lier than the usual hour for it; and, though wine is never offered to after noon callers in towns,"it is quite cor rect to offer the gentlemen visitors in the country. When a lady drives her self, and has no groom in attendance for though ladies do not drive them selves in the town without being at tended by the groom, they often do bo in the country the servant who opens the door for them sends for some one to hold the horse or pony. When this is done, the lady, at the conelu eion of her visit, should give the man or boy who does this for her some little gratuity in return for his serv ices. This is always expected of her, and should-not be forgotten. The sum given should not be a large oe a six pence or a shilling will be quite suffi cient for the purpose. Of course, when a groom is in attendance this is not nec essary. Sometimes when, visitors have driven long distances which is often the case in the country the carriage, instead of remaining at the door, as in town, is sent round to the stables, and the horses taken out. j When this has been done the visitor, before rising to take leave of her hostess, should ask if she might ring and order her car riage, and the hostess, unless a gentle man is present to do so for her, ring3 the bell, and when the servant enters, the visitor should ask for her carriage. When it comes around, the servant returns and announces that it is ready, and the visitor then rises .and takes leave of the hostess. She does not go out and wait in the hall until the carriage comes around, but remains in the drawing-room with her hostess until its ar rival is announced. London Lady.

A BIT OF HISTORY. IV LOVE MATCH RUINED BY THE MAR RIAGE OF A KING IN THE FAMILY. The Duke of Roxbarghe was Kngng-ea to Princess of Mecklenburg but George III Destroyed the Possibility of Their Hap piness. The sale of some of the famous Rox burghe library some weeks ago, on the inniversa.ry of the bibliomaniac Duke jf Koxburghe's death (March 29), was i coincidence which brought back to many minds the tender memory of a long-varnished romance. John Kerr, Duke of Roxburghe, was me of the handsomest and perhaps the most accomplished British noblemen of ais day. He boasted collateral descent from the "Admirable Crichton," and ais rare combination of rare good books, rare learning and rare courage laterally recalled that celebrated though unfortunate personage. He succeeded to the dukedom in 1755, and Immediately proceeded to lay siege to icd canture the heart of the princess af Mecklenburg. The old Duke of Mecklenburg was willing enough to ;onscnt to the match, for Roxburghe tvas rich, while the house of Mecklen burg, though sovereign princes, were poor as church mice. But just as the poung couple were about to be be trothed the well-intentioned villain of the story in the person of King George HI of England came wife-hunting among the little German courts. Eventually he chose the younger laughter of the Duke of Mecklenburg. Of. course, a kins could not mate with a sister of his subject's wife, and so the old Duke coolly informed Rox burghe that he must consider his love affair at an end. The young couple at tempted an elopement, but this was frustrated,, and a company of soldiers sscorted the young Duke over the Mecklenburg border. Roxburghe returned to England, ivhere he lived and died a bachelor. His lady love was equally constant, refusing all offers, flattering or other wise, and eventually dying in single blessedness. Robbed of his love the Duke took to book hunting as a means to forgetfnlness. He became the greatest collector of has day, and at his death the Roxburghe library real ized over $116,000. To this day a club of bibliophiles, called the "Rox burghe," meets, annually to celebrate his memory. But poor Sophia of Mecklenburg had ao great library to console her -no Oaxtone and Aldines to browse over. She dwelt in proud sorrow In a retired part of her father's do-mlslone until her death, which, occurred nearly fif teen years before that of Roxburghe. To the end the unhappy pair corres ponded regularly, and their passionate letters are now in possession of the Grand Duke of Mecklentattrg-Streiitz. And so, when the Roxburghe Grub meets' annually, it Is the custom of the members to drink a doible toast, "To John Kerr, Duke of Roxburghe, and his well-beloved Princess, Sophia of Mecklenburg."

Fashion has insisted and kept on in sisting that custdons and pillows should remain in style, until we are educated up to an appreciation of their needs and worth, says an eastern writ er. Not only are we almost as luxurious as the orientals in our use of cushions, but there is a very general appreciation of their aesthetic value and of fitness of covering, size and shape. Heart, crescent and other fanciful shaped cushions are no longer in vogue, not merely because they are less prac tical, but (because we are at length learning the beauty of simplicity. 8ome one has said that "a room well cushioned is a room well furnished;" and surely, if one must use cheap furni ture, comfort and luxury can be ee cured 'in no other way. They trans form a two-dollar cot or grocery box window seat into a homelike and easy resting place; make even wood-seated rockers dreams of comfort, and may 'Impart just the touchof color needed to harmonize a motley collection of furnishings. The covering of cushions for general i usa need not be of expensive material to be pretty. There is almost no end ' of medium and low (priced fabrics that are at once suitable, handsome and durable. Among such are Agra, art and dress linens, crash, plain and twilled, canvas yacht cloth, denim, Japanese crape, Java print, grass cloth, awning cloth and ticking. Japanese cotton rugs make charming covers for floor cushions. St. Louis Republic. Strawberry fllerlngrne. One pint of milk, two teaspoonfulg corn-starch, yolks of two eggs, a pinch of salt. .

Congressman Hepburn of Iowa tells Uow he once got back a ?2 000 office knowing how to pronounce Sioux. "I bad been chief clerk," he says, "of the Iowa House of Representatives for several terms, but the wheel of po litical fortune had finally brought in a House that was not as friendly as I could wish. Another candidate ap peared, and he and I- had a warm light, with the result that he defeated me by a few votes in the Republican caucus. Thje House was organized, ! and this man was duly elected chief j. clerk. It so happened that the first l paper he had to read was a communi cation relative to the Sioux Indians. The name 'Sioux' appeared very fre puently, and the new clerk persisted in calling it "Si-oux,' to the distrust of the old Westerners, who had been ac customed to the correct pronunciation all their lives. As soon as the House adjourned on the first day one of the Republican leaders asked all Repub licans to remain for a caucus. The caucus having' been eeavened, this gentleman asose and saic: "I move that the present chief clerk be dis charged and that J. P. Hepburn, the former cslef, clerk of this body, be re- I elected, 'e want a man who knows j how to r.-rnounee 'Sioux.' " The mo tion was adopted unanimously, and I j was reinstated because I knew better ' than to call 'Sioux' 'Si-O'xt.' " New ; 1'ork Tribune. WOMAN'S ENORMOUS WARDROBE.

"One reads so many stories about mimal intelligence that it would be aazardous for a doubter to express his iisbelief in almost any gathering of nen at the present day," remarked a jentleman the other day. "A little in stance came within my own observa :ion a number of years ago when 1 was studying medicine, and . which ;onvinoed me that the members of the borse family, at least, ought to be iredited with the possession of a very sonsiderable quantity of reasoning power. It was the custom for the students at the medical institution at fvhiich I pursued my Sjtudies to wear i small badge upon their coats to dls ringuish them from others at the col lege. A horse belonging to the estab lishment was used a great deal about the medical department, and the ani cnal seemed to have a special prefer mce for the embryo doctors more rbao for any other people about the establishment. One day,, while a number of us were gathered In a little toot upon a small campus in the rear of the college, the animal in question which used to nip the 2rase In the lo :ation, came toward the group limp ing very badly. He came to a atop a iozen or more feet from the crowd, md carefully surveying the lot of us, anally made up his mind as to what be wanted to do, and without any hesitation limped directly to my side, tvhinnied, stuck his nose against my body and held up his left foreleg. Looking down I discovered a large nail imbedded in the frog of his hoof, rhis had evidently caused the lame aess. I then realized the interesting fact that the animal desired attend ance. I extracted the nail with some iifflculty, and the horse whimpered with relief and walked away. Rather curious a to why the beast had picked me out to attend to his wound, glanced at the boys and found the solution to the problem. Not one of the group had hie medical badge upon bis coat but myself. The horse had recogniaed the insignia, realized its significance and acted accordingly."

"A man would hardly imagine that aegroee used to erowd around the front of that elegant church and sell watermelons on Sunday," said a Dan f Macon, G. He referred to Mul berry Street Methodist Chorrh, one of the finest church buildings in that jity. "But is a fact," conttaned the gentleman. "I can remember- those scenes as well as if they were yester day. "It was before the war, whea all the slave owners allowed their Indus trious slaves an acre or so of land on which to raise watermelons or any thing they chose. The negroes were ?iven every Saturday afternoon to tend to their patches, and on Sfanday were allowed to hitch a mule to a wagon and take their melons and oth ?r produce around to churches, camp meetings or elsewhere to sell them. It was a very common thing to see a man stop at a negro's watermelon pile and select a melon, pay for and put it in his buggy and drive on home after church; and, indeed, children frequently clubbed ia and bought mel ons from the slaves and ate them dur ing the time between Sunday school aud preaching." In those days masters took great in terest m the Industry and enterprise of their slaves, and did everything they could to encourage them. No body ever thought of objecting to or Interfering with the negroes In their Sunday traffic. Macon Telegram. MOVED A TOWN SIX MILES. rhls Feat Accomplished by One Enter prising; Man. Every now and then marvellous stories come out of the West. One of the most remarkable Is told by a Mis sourian. It is a story of the days when the people of the Bullion State were driving out of it the Mormons. The latter built a town at Nauvoo, on the banks of the Mississippi. There they erected their temple, and were making much progress, until the peo ple of Illinois arose in ansjer, burned the temple, murdered Joe Smith, and drove the rest of the community to take final refuge to Utah. Afterward a colony of Russian colonists came along and bought the land. TJsey had no use for the 350 buildings, and sold them to a Mlssourlan for a trifle. The following winter this ecterpriair in dividual put rollers under the bouses, slid them down the banks of the frozen river, and then slid, rolled and pushed them six miles further up the stream, where, alone and shaade-hand-ed, he founded the town of Fort Mad ison, Ia.

LARGE FEES OF A FEW LAWYERS. Bonry W. Ollv.r Said to Have Obtained 82, 000,000 frura On. Organization. It is said In Pittsburg that Henry W. Oliver was paid a "fee" of $2,000,000 for arranging a combination which gives the control of the Mesaba iron range and the practical control of the ore market to an organization of man ufacturers with the Carnegie Iron Company at Its head. If this is to be considered as a fee, it Is undoubtedly the largest ever paid. All the fees ever paid to Patrick Hen ry, Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, Abra ham Lincoln and any dozen of the greatest orators in the best ten years of their lives never amounted to half so much. It is reported that Lawyer Hart, of San Francisco, who bore the brunt of the legal fight for the recovery to Flor ence Blyth of the Blythe millions, will receive a fee of $2,750,000. The estate in litigation aggregated $4,000, 000. Hart carried on the fight for years, paying the expenses out of his wn pocket, so that his great fee is not ill profit. It Is said that the largest fee ever be fore paid was $260,000 to William Nel son Cromwell for acting as assignee in the case of Lecker, Howell & Co., New fork, bankers and brokers. In the pro. tests which such payments naturally trail out It was asserted that this was it the rate of over $43,000 a week for the time he was employed. The fee paid by the Sugar Trust to John E. Parsons is stated at $250,000, and that paid to Henry L. Clinton in the Van ierbllt will case at from $100,000 to 150,000.

NIGHT CALLS answered from District Telegraph Office, 5 East Main street . . . JOKGLnT MORIARTY fe OO M 4 DINNER FOR A SNAKE. Graasel Absorptloa of av Frogr Irs- a jter Meeemelsi. It ia not often that one has an oppor tunity of watching a snake swallowing his live prey when the snake is fres and on his native soiL A summer idler near the Newman Springs bridge, or the Shrewsbury river, the otjier day stopped for a rest at the site of an. old rustic summer-house. A spring were was dammed up years ago and the summer-house built over the pond so that wanderers could sit and refresh themselves there. The summer-house rotted and fell, and the pond filled with many seasons' fall of leaves from the surrounding oak and chestnut trees. As the idler sat on a remnant of the old dam a frog about four inches ia length was suddenly projected from under the leaves. At first the idlei was puzzled to know how it managed to stand in the air in such a manner, but 'soon he. tow that it was held in the jaws of a snake. The snake was leas than two feet long and was what waa known locally as a water moccasin, His head was about half an inch broad and his neck smaller in size than, aa ordinary lead pencil. The frog in th thickest part was about two Inches across. The snake's jaws were closed just over tie end. of one of the frog's hind legs, and even that was such a mouthful that it seemed aa if the jawi were stretched to their utmost. In and out among the leaves the snake slowly twistedr and turned, work ing his jaws all the time till he had worked the smaller end of the frog's leg down his throat. Then he became more quiet. Now he began a slow, monotonous task. His jaws worked continuously, but with a motion hardly perceptible, aided by an occasional strained contortion of the snake's neck. Soon the frog was but a mere lump in the snake's throat, and finally it passed downward. Then the snake raised his head and neck in a graceful curve and his little nervous, forked tongue shot out at regular intervals. Then, 6pyirig his observer for the first time, he slid quickly under the leaves just in time to escape a blow with a light stick. It took the snake about 13 minutes to swallow that Xrog, and no doubt he had swallowed many largei ones. 2i. Y.
