The famous marble house at Newport, which cost $2,000,000, was given to her. It was at this sumptu ous palace that the trouble between the couple began. Marble House was completed during the summer of 1892, and was occupied the same season. After leaving it on the famous yacht ing tour, on the yacht Valiant, In 1894, the quarrel broke into an open rup ture, and Mr. Vanderbllt left the yacht and went to I'arts, which he has since made his home, Mrs. Van derbllt residing in London or New port.

Mrs. WlUUira K. Vanderbllt, bm K., who in addition received the same share as their brothers and sisters. Mr. W. K. Vanderbllt Is, therefore, one of the richest men In the world. The suit for divorce will be brought In Rhode Island. This affair has eaused a greater sensation in New York's upper social circles than any other matter of gossip in many years. The report is that the trouble origin ated in the extravapance and pride of Mrs. Vanderbllt. Her husband under took to check her, with the result of a Violent breach of good relations. After his arrival in Paris, Mr. Vanderbllt apeared In public with Nellie Neu stretter, a notorious and beautiful wo man, it Is said solely with the purpose of giving ground for a divorce. His relatives all sympathize with him in his domestic trouble. It is claimed that he lavished his vast wealth on his wife and her sisters, only with the re sult of creating larger and more ex travagant demands, until his patience gave way. Mrs.. Vanderbllt was originally Miss A!Va Smith, of Mobile, Ala., daughter of Murray Smith. The family was one of the best in Mobile, but not wealthy, Mr. Vanderbllt met her at a reception given by his sister, Mrs. Elliott F. Shepard. He was then twenty-six years old and she had Just been Intro duced to New York society, with her two sisters, by some prominent South erners here. The marriage took place shortly afterwards. Mrs. Vanderbllt belongs to a family which has given an extraordinary amount of employment to the divorce courts. Her sister, Miss Jennie Smith, married Mr. Fernando Yznaga. She arranged an amlcablo divorce with him and married Mr. Tiffany. Mr. Thu Yaliunt. Yznaga then married Miss Mabel Wright Another sister, Miss Minnie Smith, married a French nobleman named De Fonbllllot, from whom she Is now separated. As the divorce will leave "Mr. Van derbllt with the privilege of marry ing again, there Is much speculation in society as to his future career He Is of middle height, with blnck hair, side whiskers, ruddy complexion, and a good humored f;ico. His fortune is immense, and ho lms the reputation of lining good-natured and extremely generous. Mrs. Vanderbllt la at pres ent leading a very socludod life at Newport. n. J,, tnijis.

THE "SON OF HEAVEN" FORCED TO SUE FOR PEACE. European Interference Trobable In East ern Afl'nlrs What Japaneie Conquest Would Mean to China -An Interesting Situation. European advices clearly Indicate that every effort of the Chinese gov ernment to stay the onward march of the Japanese army toward Pekln has failed, and the most populous empire on the face of the earth has been forced to the humiliation of suing for peace. Japanese Crossing the Yalu. The Emperor of China has asked the Interference of European powers to secure terms with victorious Japan. At the present time the Japanese, after crossing the Yalu river, have Invested Tort Arthur, and are march ing on Moukden. It is almost a for gone conclusion that the Japanese will capture Pekln unless a treaty of peace bo arranged. Once Installed at Pekln the Japanese might take a notion to 3tay. The Japanese army has been received with enthusiasm everywhere by the poor Chinese, who have hailed them aa deliverers from the intolor nblo outrages perpetrated by their own armlos. China Is evidently rife for a revolt, and, once at Pekin, it would be easy for the Jnpanese to overthrow Uie present dynasty and break up the groat Mongul empire. This is a prospect that nearly all European powers, especially England. and Russia, lcok upon with suspicion. It Is very probably that European in terference will be invoked to protect the corrupt and tottering throne of China from being overthrown. It la to be regretted that reasons of selfishness should stand in the way of reforms that might prove the re demption of China. The Japanese have many things to teach the Chinese In the arts of peace as well as of war. But this Is not to be. England Is becoming impatient. Her trade with China Is seriously embarrassed. Besides, the . wur expenses are run ning up, and England will have to pay the piper eventually, as China Attack on Port Authnr. will reimburse herself for the cost of the war by imposing heavier duties on ' foreign goods when they reach in- terior stations. These duties will fall most heavily on British trade. I Should the Japanese prove to be ob etlnate in resenting European Inter ference in Astatic affairs, an interest ing situation would be developed. The European powers most Interested In Eastern affairs hate each other cor dially, and the possibility of a Euro pean war cannot fall to cause un i easiness until peace Is made between ' enma ana japan. m. T. Cain. - . i The Starflsli. There are several pretty creatures Who live In the water, and are classed as "fishes," yet who do not look like the fishes we usually know. One of the most common and familiar of them is the starfish. There are several kinds of starfish, some of them being very beautiful, with long, feathery arms. The com mon starfish, which you have doubt less seen, is a five-pointed creature, his shape, of course, giving him hie name. These fishes are soft and flabby whllp living' hnr when rinnri and drlAtt they present a brittle and shell-like appearance. They vary In size, from ' tiny creatures an inch across to 1 twelve and fourteen Inches In size, or perhaps much larger, but this Blze is j that ordinarily found on near-by 1 Coasts. The starfish manages to walk along , the land by the aid of numbers of tiny, feet on the under part of Its body. It not only walks easily, but Is said to stand up occasionally on one of Its points and survey the scenery, but as we have never seen a starfish do that we cannot vouch for the fact. i Starfish, so naturalists tell us, live upon mollusks, and are specially fond of oysters. But when the oyster de clines to come out of his shell, In or der to provide a dinner for Mr. Star fish, that gentleman has a way of tak ing him whether the oyster wishes to come or not. Our naturalist says: j The starfish lays himself down on his victim, and, folding his five arms about it, holds It firmly In place. Then he gradually pushes his stomach out . through lils mouth, and wraps It around the unfortunate oyster. Whe ther some fluid of the stomach forces the shell open is not known. But the result is the securing of a dinner for the starfish, and the death of the oys ter." One of the peculiarities of the the starfish is that a new arm grows whenever one is destroyed. Even If half the flHh be destroyed, the missing part will be replaced, as good as ever. Ofllclnl Kmblems.

A new kind of mustard pot has been m.ide that insures always having fresh mustaru. it is the size of an ordinary, mustard pot. and consists of two parts, In the lower half of which Is placed dry mustard, while In the neck of the upper part Is a small container for the water necessary for mixing, together w rn n mile screw, which, when turn ed by the consumer, al'ows the water to escape Into the mustard below, the two oeing amalgam a ted by a turn or two of the screw. In this way a fresh, supply for each meal can be obtained without waste or trouble, and as the pot c;tn be taken In two In nn Instant, there l ui difficulty about cleaning it. A new Idea for keeping the complex Ion clear Is never to use soap on the face, but to use butter Instead. A lit tle of this Is rubbed over the face with a soft cloth and thru removed by means of a second cloth. It renders the skin beautifully soft and elastic. Buttermilk Is an old-fashioned remedy, for removin? Mu and ounburn. In Sardinia a favorite .cosmetic is citron nu lait. or milk of lemons, made by rasping off the peel of a lemon with a nutmeg grater, lolling the raspings fall Into pint of new milk, cutting the lem on open and pressing the Juice Into the milk. After It has stood for a short time the milk will curdle. Then the whole must be strained through fine muslin, and the liquid which runs through Is the rn'.Ik of lemon so much sought after. An effort Is being made to make colored paper fashionable, and all shades are shown In stationery. Among the newest is one which is known as "purple and fine linen," a pale violet shade being boxed with a creamy white one. The paper Is fo'ded once to fit into squire envelopes. Another new paper Is of blush-rose tint, and Is put up in rose-colored boxes. Thero are also pale blue and green shades, grays and a deep violet and a regular butter color, all of which are said to be fashionable. Decorated paper is also shown; violets, iris flowers, fern leavee nnd the like being stamped upon It. Boxes of tiny letter paper and en velopes are shown for the use of small people, and sometimes the words: "I am going to have a party" are stamp'l ea across the sheets. Men nnd women in gay attire are also stamped upon the paper for children. Pure white unruled paper with a monogram in sil ver or gold or the address of one's house are exclusively used by conser vative people. This paper fits into square envelopes when folded once.

Under this bead Ralph Waldo Emer son wrote: " Tie an estimable hint I owe to a few persons of fine manners, that they make behavior the very first sign of force behavior not perform ance, or talent, or much leas, wealth. Whilst almost everybody has a suppli cating eye turned on events and things and other persons, a few natures are central and forever unfold, and these alone charm us. He whose word or deed you cannot predict, who answers you without any supplication in his eye, who draws his determination from within, than man rules." Ammonia and the Hair. Ammonia is very cleansing. It has heen known to take the plant oft wood work and the design out of car pet. Women who put this powerful chemical Into the water for a sham poo may expect positive results a thoroughly clean sca'p, sl'ghtly parch ed, a little sore and perhaps a brief headache; crisp, dry, bleached hair and premature grayness. Of course, no two people are alike. Ammonia may bo Just the thing for one wig, but a wise old fellow in a Broadway hair shop says it is too strong for toilet purposes.
