SOME WELL-KNOWN
FOREIGN WOMEN.
Mrs. M. E. W. Sherwood Writes
Ibont Some of the Notables
That She Has Met.
OWE. WAS LEADER OF FASHION.
Annie Thackeray, the Daughter of
the Famous Novelist— The Ex-
Empress Eugenic as She Ap
peared in 1840 and as She
Appeared Three Years Ago.
The Queen of Spain.
■BC/lf-iRS. M. E. V?. SHERWOOD, writing
IVl^ from London to Eastern journals,
* from London to Eastern Journals,
ljViL'i tells some interesting anecdotes of
prominent women she has met:
Thackeray, alas, was dead when I visited
London for tho first time. I had known
him well In America, and had stopped to
see him in the EDglish metropolis. We
had, however, letters to bU daughters, and
they gave us a dinner. Mrs. Leslie Stephen
was then alive, and we met toe gifted Anno
Thackeray and her sister, Mr. and Mrs.
Justice Stephen, and Doyle, the ftimous
caricaturist of Punch, at that table. Miss
Thackeray, then just beginning her very
honorable career, was pronounced the most
agreeable woman in England, a title she
has deserved ever since. She was so cheer
ful, so bright, so hospitable, she made 113
leel at home, and asked for every item of
information that we could give her of the
dear lather whoso visit to America had in
terested him and them bo much. She asked
particularly about the original of Ethel
N'ewcomb. the lamented and beautiful
L»llie Baxter, who married Mr. Hampton,
and died during our civil war at Charles
toD, S. C, under the saddest circumstances.
After dinner Miss Thackeray received a
note. It wa3 to tell her of the success at a
competitive examination of young Rich
mond Ritchie, the son of a friend cf hers.
How little did I think that twenty years
liter 1 should be sitting under a sunny wall
at Aix-les-Bains talking to Mr. and Mrs.
Richmond Ritchie! For she married him,
although very many years her junior, and a
v \ ■■- '
Mrs. Elchmor.it BttcMc
bnpT'ier couple I do not know. Mr. Rich
mond Ritchie is a tall, Btrone, handsome,
dark Englishman, looking older tlian he Is,
while his wife has no particular age. She is
just as old as her heart, which is a fountain
of youth, and she Is just as modest and un
pretending, as good, siraiile, true aud sweet
as her lucks.
I had tha pleasure last summer, Just
twenty-one years alter nur first meeting, of
driving Mrs. Richmond Ritchie, one heaven
ly summer day, from Alx-les-Balns to
Bourget, to breakfast, 'lhere is a little
chalet on the lake which commands a
splendid view of the DaiiDhinoise Alps and
the beautiful lake, which is the color of a
peacock's feather. She enjoys natural
scenery as only such a woman can— .l
creature made up of every creatures best;
and I shall never forget the charm of her
conversation. I met two other ladies at the
chalet, and breakfasted famously, for our
Lost had been the chel of the unfortunate
Maximilian. , ,
It would ue difficult to find a place where
ODu meets more celebrities than nt Aix.
1 have met there old Aiboni, the famous
fat contralto, of whom Jules Janin said:
"She is an elephant who has Bwallowea a
nightingale," and I heard her regret that
her adipose matter had lost her twenty
years of lyric triumph. 1 have met there
Lord Lamlngtoo— just dead— after a Ufa
of literary successes, winding up with
•The Last of the Dandies," now coming
out in Ulaekwood. I have met the late Em
peror of Brazil, Pom Pedro, a most kindly
old man. who used to be the providence of
all strolling players. I have met there all
the Ciqtielins, aine, cadet, cere and fils,
and supped and dined with them. The
brothers Coquelin used to bring their dear
old mother to Aix, and were always most
attentive to her. Coquelin aine, pere Pt
fils came there in the summer of 1889,
alter their American triumphs', and were
full of praises of American hospitality. I
saw "Old Toole" there often, lie used to
"make ut/' faces for us from his " Be.r
tholet," which is a box wherein the patient
is shut DP as in a prison, With only the head
out at the top, to tal;o hla steam-cure for
the g"iit. Sir. Toole was a great favorite
with Lady homers and Lady Lefton, and
often invited by them to our picnic.
As for princes and princesses who aro
very common in Europe— that is Italian,
Busslan, Belgian and German— we had any
BtUnber always at Aix. 1 liked the Rns
siHns wry much. They are accomplished
and sympathetic I do not know if they
always toil the troth, but then who does?
Only people of Anglo-Saxon blood, and not
always these even. I was at Aix during
Tlit t-X-Emprtts Eugenic.
the first visit there of Queen Victoria, and
saw her Mujesty with tlie Princess Beatrice
every day. Nothing could be plainer than
the dresses of these royal ladies or more
democratic than their demeanor.
The royalty who impressed Aix most
favorably was perhaps George, King of
Greece, who made a long stay there in 1889.
lie is a plain bid, not so handsome as the
brother of the Princess of Wales ought to be,
but a man of very fine manners. lie has a
singulnrly amiable character, and on the oc
casion of a fete given to him by Dr. lirachet
be appeared most gracious.
One thing I have noticed In all royalty.
They are simpler than other people, and
only desire to be let alune.
1 may mention here two rather picturesque
Interviews with the Empress Eugenic. The
first one at Venice in 1860, when she waiou
her way to the Suez Canal to open it for M.
de Lesseps, her cousin.
She arrived there in her own yacht, tho
Aisle, and we saw her from the windows of
ilami.lii'-. Hotel pacing up and down the
deck, a queenly figure. Indeed the Empress
Eugenic, who was not a royalty, looked
more like one than any i have seeu born in
the purple. She was physically so hand
some and what we call "aristocratic-look
ing" that she seemed every inch a Queen.
In the evenine all Venice was illuminated
and the Grand Caual had tin/ appearance of
• long jeweled serpent. Victor Emanuel
came thither with a brilliant troupe of
cavaliers to do her honor, lie took her In
bis own gondola, up the tortuous, dark
passages of the lesser canals into the
Grand Canal, past the historic house of
Lucretla Borgia, which was blood-red in
the limelight, past the violet-tinted church
of Maria del Salute, past the glort
ous old Ducal Palace, past the two
columns which, huld tlie Lion of fat.
Mark and the Sslnt on tho Alligator;
through all the dream}' charm of a night in
Venice, with the gleaming boats beside
them, one a model of the Bueeii'oro. Musk
was playing softly all the airs from -"Otello,
"I Duo Foseari" and other Venetian thing' ;
and so the Empress, whose pale, handsome
face and red hair I saw plainly from my
gondola, spent her evening in Venice.
Lord Houghton w;is with her, and he af
terward tola me that she ordered in Venice
a dress made after the portrait of Catarina
Cornaro, Queen of Cyprus, in the Aeca
demia, which she wore at the ball given by
M. de Lesseps at Suez.
Poor woman ! this was the last of her glo
ries. The next year came Sedan, with down
fall and ruin, loss of husband, loss of son.
She is onr Lady of Vicissitudes.
During the most brilliant days of the
Queen's jubilee in London in ISB7 1 saw the
Empress ouco more, a tall, pale, white
haired woman in deep mourning, attended
by one gentleman and one lady. She came
down the steps of the Buckingham Palace
Hotel as 1 did. Our carriages were de
tained, and 1 noted again that fine, aristo
cratic outline, that beautiful droop of the
eyelid. She is still very handsome, and
looks like a martyr, but how changed it all is.
In 1888 I saw the Queen of Spain and the
little King. It was a pretty family croup.
The Queen is not handsome, but she is
"agreeable looking," with light hair worn
loose on the forehead. Sho was very plainly
dressed and had by her side her two little
daughters, while the little King sat oppo
site. He has too large a head and is not a
pretty baby, but he is very interesting. lie
was then about 3 years old, I believe. I
heard some curious anecdotes about him. lie
catches up very quickly all allusions to him
self. Ills mother told Sir Francis Clare Ford
that ho fell and hurt himself, but would not
cry, as he said his governess had assured
him that "Kings never cried." He was par
ticularly fond of animals— a strange trait in
a monarch who is to be brought up to bull
lights—and on some one remarking that he
was too tender to a lame kitten he an
swered, "Kiugs must protect." Poor little
precocious follow!
Probably he governs Spain better than
anybody, His helplessness is a mighty
scepter. |Even Castelar said. "I cannot
make war on a woman and a baby I"
WHAT IS ELECTRICITY?
Scientists Who Contend That
There Is No Such Thing.
■T^^EOPLE who have an idea that elec-
I""* tricity is an entity rather than a
I \ "i form of expression of energy will be
interested in a statement in regard to it
from a geutlenian of such high scientific at
tainments as Professor A. E. Dolbear of
Tufts College, Professor Dolbear says that
in that interesting bookou "Modern Views
of Electricity," by Professor O. J. Lodge,
there is made the suggestivo statement that,
after all the inquiries have been made as to
what is electricity, the answer may have to
be, thcro is no such thing. The words
"electric" and "electrification" maybe re
tained, he Bays, but the word "electricity"
may have to go, simply because it dees not
stand for a reality.
It may be difficult for one who looks at
the phenomena, rather than to the relations
involved in the phenomena, to imagine that
electricity is not some sort of an entity, and
may be described, if one knew how, us one
would describe any other something. It
would certainly be curious if it should turn
out that the reason no answer has been
forthcoming to the question, What is elec
tricity? is that there is no sucn thiu;j and
the question is an improper one; as if one
should ask. What is odor, or brightness,
or zero?
Historically there are several parallel
cases. A hundred years or more ago heat
phenomena were attributed to phlogiston
or caloric — each supposed to be sir. entity of
some sort. The latter form is still retained
for convenience, but it has ceased to have
any significance as a something that gives
origin to heat phenomena. When it was
discovered that such phenomena were due
to atomic and molecular vibrations, or what
is now often called a "mode of motion,"
both the above words ceased to have any
meaning; in other words, there was no such
thing as phlogiston or caloric.
Again, light was once thought to be an
entity; now we know that light is a sensa
tion, Mild properly does not exist independ
ent of the eye. What was treated as light
is now called "radiant energy" or "ether
waves." Tluiiigh the term "light" is re
tained, it Iras' lost the significance it had
when it was supposed to be a. created some
thing.
The. physiologists for a very longtime ex
plained the phenomena exhibited by living
things, both vegetable and animal, as due
to "vital force"— something supposed to be
utterly unlike and not necessarily related
to the other forces in nature — a force that
could control the others 111 a living organ
ization. Now that has been altogether
abandoned. No biologist of any repute
now believes in "'vital force," and the ques
tion. What is life? which has baffled every
one in his attempt to define it, now turns
out to be an improper question, as it is re
ducible to complicated molecular notions
and not to an entity.
As magnetism is Known to be due to the
position of molecules, as ehemism may bo
explained as due to other pressure, it really
seems as if all along the line of knowledge
of the physical universe what have been
called "forces" as peculiar somethings,
having individuality as matter has, have no
existence at all, and that matter and ether
and motions of one sort or another are all
factors in phenomena. Lodge's statement,
then, lias a degree of probability added to
it by the Antecedents in the history of
physics.— Boston Herald.

ON THE CREST OF
MOUNT ST. HELENA.
A Glimpse at One of the Love-
liest Panoramas of California.
Lofty Mountains, Bagged Hills and Verdant
Valleys— The Picturesque Surround
ings of City and Town.
Written for The Sunday Call.
cr%HE lover of nature endeavoring to
t'i^V uc * " ie most glorious views, seeking
jlf * out the most gorgeous of earth's
visions and enjoying for a time an overflow
ing cup of pleasure, who would revel amid
sylvan scenes free from the raw piercing
ocean winds, free from the. burning heats
of the Interior valley, free from the dis
tractions of the treat centers and thorough
fares of travel, will find no better place
than the course pursued by the writer.
The shrill whistle of the engine announces
that the train is "slowing up" at Calistoga,
a village of rare beauty and delightful sur
roundings, near the head of Napa Valley.
At the depot is the usual crowd of morbid
and idle men and boys, scanning the late
arrivals, while here and there anxious ones
are eagsrly awaiting friends, wliilo the
backmen and hotel runners are busy plying
their arts to secure patronage.
Taking a seat In a good mountain vehicle
thn visitor speeds rapidly over the little
brooklets dropping down from the sides of
the mountains np Napa Valley, which be
comes narrower and narrower, until the
grade is readied, when a look to the left
gives a view grand and beautiful, for there,
probably seven miles away, as the road
runs, can be seen a mountain peak that tills
one with admiration. It is the summit of
St. Helena Climb, climb, climb, nearly
live miles up the Bide of that mountain,
lands one amid scenes that instinctively re
call the wilil nurrouaalnge and the naiads
and fairies that childhood days have asso
ciated with the seclusion of tho mountain
glades. Ever and anon is heard the clear
notes of tlie thrush in its delightful ec
stacy imitating the carols of thu forast war
blers. Doves perched upon tlie branches
of the trees are cooing lovingly and plaint
ively songs to their mates. Down in the
rcees>es of the mountain gorge below the
shrill call of tlie quail is heard. The air is
redolent with tlie bast gifts of nature. The
balsamic pines nnd forest flowers vie with
each other in best eudpnvor to til! it with
sweet perfumes. Interspersed between tlie
pine and oak is the reJ-barked and large
spreading arbutus, along down the gulches
and in the abyssmal recesses of the moun
tain, the dark-greeu-leaved bay trees spread
themselves, and groves of other forest trees
are .seen on either band. Arriving near the
top of the mountain grade, lo see thu
BEAUTIFUL PBOSPECT
Observable from the mountain height, the
visitor leaves the Lake County road and
takes a trail to the left. Scarcely two
thirds of Ihe distance up to the mountain's
top there is a wild stretch ot chaparral,
inaiizanita ami other brushwood, forming
mi insuperable hedge between the climber
and the end of his journey, penetrated only
by the mountain trail leading to the height
above. Here the visitor chouses to travel
in a "go-as-yon-Dlaue" way. and that
means walking. Upward, over rocks that
rolled from the seething Humes when this
mountain was a burning volcano, between
brush that seems to nave been formed on
purpose to annoy us and enrich the tailors;
the sun above was casting: his rays down
with mure than his usual power; an in
creasing thirst ensues, that refuses to be
satiated, and occasionally ono teela the
gnawing of appetite that intimate that
tile is sustained by eating. JSut the
irresistible Anglo-Saxon determination to
overcome obstacles and secure the object
aimed at is rewarded with success, and
after climbing two miles, the admirer of
the sublime beauties of Nature at last stands
upon the eastern summit of the mountain,
of which there are three. So taking a good
drink ol pure mountain water from the
jug, and mopping the perspiration from his
brow, the visitor breathes a few momenta
the air, rarified by the 3700 feet of altitude,
then glances down upon the inimitable
landscapes presented to view.
Looking down to the southward, seem
ingly almost at one's feet, the glass reveals
the beautiful country hamlet of Calistogn,
whose church spires point invitingly to the
laud unseen by mortal eyes, and around
them cluster the whited residences and dull
red business houses of the vitiate, bo peace
ful is the prospect that the spectator forgets
his surroundings, and dreamily wonders
if any waves of trouble ever roll down those
quiet streets; if any sorrows are known
among those dwellings, apparently so white
and guileless, and his thoughts wander
away, and an old stanza, learned in child
hood, conies to mind:
Oft In ttu' eventide, when the sea is still.
Ami the wlia waves chaal like a wutHliand rill, 9
While my breast Is Ailed Kith a uaiiiclcs3 thrill,
1 see the City ol Guid.
The reverie is broken after a look upward
into the blue vaulted concave of the heav
ens, as though one expected to see the lit
tle town rising bodily above the Jtorm
toucheu earth toward heaven's heights.
Looking further down the valles 1 , sur
rounded upon either hand by high aud
steep hills, the visitor beholds such a view
as the world may equal out cannot excel.
Beautiful liclds, carpeted with nature's
green, palatial residences, stretches of vine
yards aud orchards etone wine-cellars,
LIKE FEUDAL CASTLES,
And a little stream stretching away toward
the southeastward, carrying life and fertil
ity among the ti <-;■•—- and champaigns.
And then fct. Helena is revealed. It is
fully fifteen miles distant, and if Calistoga
appears charmingly beautiful, St. Helena
presents a view beyond description -a de
lightsome revelation never to pass from
memory. Near by are the heath-uovcred
hilis, fields overspread with golden grains,
the little rivulet rolls its pellucid waters by
a hundred fi 'Ids on its way to the mighty
sea, while the "Kiug of Day" seems to tloud
the landscape with unusual light. Further
away Xapa City seems lazily basking in
the golden sunlight, while just to the left
the dim outlines ol the home of the insane
may be seen, and further away the sunlight
is kissing the bright waters of San l'ablo
Bay. What a wonderful provision of na
ture are the.-c great watery reservoirs spread
out over the earth, and without which the
earth woul.l be a wilderness of death, a
chaos of cold mountains and Jagged rocks,
blackened cinders and barren sands, with
out bird son^s for its solitudes or nature
painted flowers for its desolations.
Toward the southeast, and forty miles
away as the eagle flies, stands Mount
Diablo, with grlm-cratered penks, rising in
awful and unchanging maje-ty— the frozen
wave <.f a world of lire, htauding almost
alone it seems a sentinel of the valleys,
,ii mill whose heights in aboriginal days
the fleet Indian hunter only went when his
food could not be secured upon the plain,
mil then with trepidation and bated
breath, fearing the presence of the evil
spirits, which their traditions assigned to
thosu mountain fastnesses.
And again turning eastward, one looks
across a hundred hills and mountains, and
gets a view til a portion of the gnat valleys
of California ; fifty miles away rose an in
land sea, whose waters hay« receded ami
Diade future homes for millions of people.
The sunlight clothes the landscape with a
dreamy fascination as beyond that great field
of tho "western empire, rising tier above tier
are hills upon hills, until the snow-mantled
peaks of the Sierra Nevadas are outlined
upon the distant hori/.on, in cold and silent
majesty, rising heaveuward with snowy
crown transmuted to gold in the bright
glare of sunlight. One is greatly impressed
with the vastness and sublimity of the
scenery. Far, fur away toward the south
east, Mount Whitney, which has seemingly
dwindled to the sizo of a molehill, and
toward the northeast. Mount Lasseu, tire
burned and storm-swept, stand iv their un
wearied vigil. I >ou ii toward the uorlhlaud,
the ragged, rocky cliffs tissume.

j side and tlie wild winds that often sweep
over St. Helena mean through them with
voices like a wail for the lost opportunities of
communion with nature. Down into the
gorges of a canyon overlooked it seemed only
tins dominion of precipices and waterfalls,
bold head lands and steep declivities, then an
inextricable labarynth of hills and valley?,
forests and streams, until the eye rests
upon the beautiful Locomoini Valley— a
vision of beauty and verdure, in a land of
hills; the cloud, floating high above the
valley, only enhances the beauty of the
scene and one naturally sits and drinks in
the sublime view indescribable by human
tongue until the eye is weary with behold
ing and the mind is surfeited with beauty.
Tiie wavy slopes of the distant
hills are lifted up to hang forth the
flaming hues of the forest in the
clearest light; the lines of the ridges and
valleys gently break tho change of view,
and the russet hues of the harvest fields
tone down with delicate blendings of light
and shade. The intervening eight miles
between the point of observation and Mid
dletowli in the clear atmosphere seem but
a few rods. The scene is one of enchant
ment, for there, by the side of St. Helena
Creek, spreads out the village of Middle
town, as a diamond in a golden crown. The
whole aspect reminds! one of the Garden of
the Lord. Upon the distant hills flocks
graze and disport themselves amid the fair
scenes, where the breezes touch the flowers
and waft their perfumes across the wild
forest, swayed by the winds, and attuned
as a living orchestra of myriads of harp
strings, swept by angel lingers. A little to
the westward and over tho heights
of intervening mountain?, may be seen the
bold, clear- ut form of Uncle Sain— or as
the Indians delighted to call it, Kanocti—
sixteen miles away and hovering over the
southern waters of Clear Lake as a protect
ing spirit. It has a weird appearance, as it
stands isolated from its fellows, and de
faced by the scars formed from the seething
outflowing of its lavas in the ages long
since passed. Its western base rests upon a
fair vale. Across the left or western side
of the mountain, in the far distance and
bases laved by the bright waters of the Eel
River, the spectator plainly discerns dark
blue Sanhedrim.
A LOOK WKSTVAISD.
Turning westward the ilayacamas Moun
tains are near by, and stretch away toward
the northwest until swallowed up among
the Coast Range. Russian River, Bowing
through a valley of the same name, crawls
down from the mountain gorges of the
north and skirts the hills of Sonoma until,
finally tired of the southward course, it
turns to the west and is lost among the
western hills. Away across a range of
mountains is caught a glimpse of the ma
jestical, inimitable, vitst ace. m, stretching
away toward the lands of the far east un
til the earth's curve curtains it with
the gray tints in the blue sky.
And, allowing the eye to run
southerly it rests on the sentinel by the
Golden Gate, Mann's Tamalpais, and lying
in a liuze of smoke and fog to the south
west is the great metropolis of the West.
Hut hark ! Coming up from the valley be
low and across the intervening spaces one
hears the whistle of an incoming train to
the village below, which breaks the reverie
and reminds him to no longer delay his de
parture from these enchanting scenes, which
have filled the soul with joyous ecstacy, and
be retraces his steps down the mountain's
Bide, leaving tne crest to be burned by the
summer sun, chilled by the wintry night
winds, swept and beaten by the storms of
oncoming centuries. w. i.. i.nn.
