from her cars, aud a self complacent smlle
adorned her mouth. Beads hung round her
ueck and dangled from her low cut corsage,
"Oh, that is Pegarlta, the Indian actress;
plays in border dramas. Btrange you
haven't heard of her," exclaimed a friend
who was with me.
"And that large stout man with a Mexi
can sombrero is Waddles, the great mill
ionaire, who plays the Battle King and the
Kancb Chief. He affects that style because
he has played that part for eighteen jears,
till he really imagines he is the lluttle King.
He travels in hi own special car with the
cattle and takes out a new- play this season
with nine horses in It instead of four. They

sumed my companion. "Although hU voice
isn't as clear as It might be, he rears
aud rants se much." The Battle King strede
past me w Ith mighty millionaire strides. He
saw no one, his snub nese haughtily spurned
the earth aud sought the ethereal heigtits.
Then I groped my w ny up Inte one of the
dramatic agencies, kept by a man they call
Alexander the G rent f or, though ha is a little
man, his word is mighty. He shook hands
with me in hut usual genial way.
"Nothing in your line this morning, miss,"
be said te my companion with a smlle. He
had smiled at her like this for many years,
and bad never yet had "anything in her

Faitbeuia when I played at the benefit. I
want something romantic; I neer was fitted

I looked at her, aud If weijjht went for
anything "beaihV ought te Ijo "just her

leased himself hurriedly and rushed out for
luncheon. There w ere some striking contrasts
in this office, from the ell paid sluging come

The recent attempted nssassinatien of

which have been icccived it would seem
that the attempt en the emperor's life Is .

The assassin was a young man, who, it (
Is ulleged, was under the influence of

the very newest things out iu the way of
wedding gowns Is te nse (ine whlte lioek

and ernngH blossemi. The skliU can be
simply hem'iued nbeut four inches deep.

The front of thesklit can be laid in
deep plaits en each ulile of n ft out breadth
of satin or molre, or the plaits can meet.
The hack breadth nre full and hang
fiem tlie top without drnpery, und cm
be walking length or n train. A wide
sash with fringed out ends U suitably of

has lieen made of hemstitched muslin.
Seino have douhle skirts, with the upper
ene drawn up en the left slde under a

sultable llewers for a. bride.
A w idew can wear pent I gray silk or
caHhmcre or Henrietta silk warp iu gray
of the palest shade, and lliii can be trim-
med lavishly with l.tee. It is net jier jier
mistiilile for n widow te wear a veil, but
she may wear n spray of erange blossoms
at her threat a ml iu her hair if hIiu se do de
sires and is young. If blie is going te
tiavel she can wear n poplin gown or
plain cashiuere iu nny quiet color or
shade, nnd it is qulte the thing te be
mariied very quietly and go elf for n
blmrt periel of lunaey enn honeymoon.
A reception after n wedding or nny
ether kind of n reception makes it pos
sible for ladies, particularly young ones,
te wear lome very killing toilets, nnd
they can Iw modeled after theso present

in Bilvcr gray, with a full vest front of
pale pink ctepe dochiue nnd trimmed

The second is made of pale rebiu's egg
blue Hengaliue silk, the skirt taUedeu
the right side ever a cream colored faille
panel braided with silver braid. Around
the waist and as n pointed cellarette nre
ornaments of Iridescent leading, though
the.Mican be better leplaccd with lace
ever darker blue, ns beading is rather
heavy for Uengallue. Indeed geld braid
ever faille would be lighter aud inore
dressy.
This model would be very pretty for a
yeuiig lady iu nun's i oiling, or Clairette,
or bluiple cashmere, but should be iu

The thiid costume li for yeuug mar

There nre pecketllds of the velutlua.
The sleeves aie puHed by means of plaits
uieug the middle of the arms, with n

In Kiangsit "A whlte dragon was seen April

since about the mlddle of March straight en,
ending that day in a most tremendous hall
storm, which smashed In the reefs of a geed

from the fields reported the presence of a
huge creature, extending about two mew

out te see it It was quite whlte, with scales

Valuable Autographs.
There nre between CO and 150 visitors who
wrlte their names dally In the big book in
Independence Hall. They coine from every
state in the Union, with a few scattered trav
elers from abroad. I'hiladelphlans seldom
register, if any of them ever venture te enter
the "Cradle of Liberty." "We average
about 100 names every day," the custodian
says, "nnd n big book, such ns you see ou the
desk. Is filled Iu about six mouths."
"What becomes of such boekst Are they
cniefully preserved In n fireproof vault for a
memorial for future generations!'1
Well," he said, "I guess we'll send ours te
the paper mill. Yeu see, folks always want
te write their names somewhere, nnd we keep
this book as n kind of safety vnlve te they
won't txs hacking up tbe woedworkwlth their
knives, or scribbling en the fresh paint."

OBSERVATIONS ON WHIST.
A Few BtmarVs Showing Hew Valuable
the I'Ur of the fourth Best Is.
There can tie no question but what the
play of the fourth best Is ene of the most val
uable plays in the game of whist. I well re
member tlie first article which Mr. Trtst
(je originated the play, or rather who first
strongly advocated it) wrote en the subject
senie years age, and the storm it raised in
whist circles. TVre is a certain class of
whist players and they are, alas! tee nu nu nu
merousweo are conservative te the pitch
of being unbearable. Te change In any way
the geed old methods of playing the game,
te Introduce anything new, Is looked upon
with holy horror by these players. Mr.
Trist's Innovation was greeted by this class
with hlses. This was especially the case In
England until Cavendish took tbe matter r.p
and adopted the play.
The fourth liest card may net Inaptly lie
ceuiiinrcd te the mark which Indicates the
rise und fall of the tide. Iiy observing the
mark you can tell, If .you compare It with the
water level, Jusl hew high the tide is just
bow much water there Is in the bay. Se
when your partner plays his fourth best and
afterward plays another card of the same
suit, you can tell what cards Ills suit contains.
Fer lustance, supjiese you partner plays 3 S,
second hand plays 3 S, you have a, q, 7 8 and
play q, and fourth hand plays 4 S., you
knew at once that your partuer has three
spades better than the Sand that he only held
four originally because his fourth best was
the 3 aud the 1! was played en the first round.
Yeu rapidly deduct from the whole suit of
spades the curds which have been played and
theso held by yourself, and then when you
have considered the play of your opponents
en your imrtner's lpad, you can tell pretty
well Just what cards of the suit your partner
held The cards which are left in the ether
hands after the first round are the 6, 0, 8, 0,
10, Ln. and k. Your partner has threo of these
-nrds. Yeu reason that he must held one
honor (or he would net have opened the suit),
and probably holds two, se that you are fairly
certain that he has the kn. nnd lc This will
probably be fully shown en the second round.
This shows hew much can be gleuned from
the play of the fourth best.
Here Is another instance: If your partner
plays the , you knew nt once that his
best suit is only fourstreng, nnd consequently
that he has a ioer hand, and this may deefde
you te take the game In your own hnnds, If
your strength justifies It. Tem Lansi.ne.
