By the accidental death of her noble spouse the countess became a widow within a few months after tier marriage. The small extent to which she was esteemed by her late husband may properly be gathered from the fact that out of an estate of nearly $150,000 the insignificant portion of SSOOO was bequeathed to the Amer ican widow, his lordship taking par ticular pains to provide that all heir looms and ancestral property should descend to others.

Tom wondered a little himself. He , had long beeu devoted to his cousin Maude, ever since ho could remember, in fact,aud he bad always had a vague idea that at some definite time they might "make it a go together." It would have been a convenient thing for them both, for she would have brought CliHton back into the family, aud Tom had the money she lacked. "But I wasn't worth while," sighed Tom to himself pityi lgly leaning back in his chair and stretching his long legs out toward the fire. "I'm sur prised that I don't feel worse. Al ways was fond of Maudie.and it would have been a nice thing all around. Hope Williams is all right for her. Always fancied the beggar myself. And it seems I'm the best man. Beast ly nuisance; all girls and frocks and wedding cake. I'll have togo through with it, though for Matidie's sake. And little Kitty Kenyon is to be maid of honor. She has never been decent j to me; seems to bear me a grudge, j Little Kitty Kenyon,"and Tom sigho.l | again. The wedding wast > take place at ; once, aud a church rehearsal, with a j supper at the brile's home, had been 1 planned for the evening before. Tom j arrived a' tho last moment, just in ! time to reach the altar as tho proces- ! sion came up the church. First the ushers, then tho six bridesmaids, who walked stiffiy, as if with the weight of j nations on their shoulders. Tom's i eyes twinkled as he watched them. ; On they came, those pretty girls, j sobered beyond their usual wont. "First time in her life Elsie Yates I hasn't danced along," Tom thought j "That Ashton girl is so ugly. Oh, by i Jove—" Tom's e.ves were fastened upon tho small figure of a girl walk- 1 ing alone. Such a pretty girl, with i great black eves, that sparkled, and such a graceful girl, swaying slightly, iu time to the stately music. She glanced up as she neared him, aud a demure look of exaggerated pity cuiue into her eyes. Then she lia l passed him, aud taken her place near the bride. "Little wretch," thought Tom, bit- j ing his lips, "I always seem to strike her as a joke." The short rehearsal was over, and Tom was walking down from the altar with the tiny maid of houor at his side. "You're so far away I can hardly make you hear me, Miss Kenyon. I have attempted it tiireo times,aud you are utterly oblivious." She glanced up at him quickly, "Oh, uo, only sad, Mr. Ainslie. I am so sorry for you. Yon bear up so wonderfully well, too. if you want to cry a little, walk behind that pillar and I'll excuse you to the rest. Just for three minutes. No? Don't need it? You can staud it a trifle longer?" "What have I ever done to you, Miss lveuyon? I'm an innocent individual who never did you any knowing harm. - 1 Will not your kind and pitying heart . speak for one who is only anxious to ; leJ you walk on him? And who only succeeds in rousing your nasty, evil little temper?" said Tom, in a distinct ly melodramatic manner. She looked nt him serenely for an instant. "Stuff and nonsense," she said, and ran off to Maudie, who was calling her. He n:anaged to secure the chair next hers at supper, though Sheldon i had his hand upon the back of it, and scrowled darkly at Tom when he sat I down. Miss Kenyon looked up with a smile. "Oh, so you are feeling kinder to- ; ward me now, aie you not?" he said, ' bending over her with the devoted air ! he had toward women. "Because I want to ask you a question, and I j want yon to answer it seriously. You will? Well, why do you not like me?" The girl gave him a curious little glance, and her lashes fluttered a mo ment. Then she answered, looking straight at him. "You have too much of the 'Con quering Hero' air about you." "I didn't know that," said Tom meekly. "Can't you help me to change it? Because I like you, you know," iu a low voice, "very, very much." He was staring at her very hard, and saw the rose tint deepen in her cheek. She turned her shoulder to ward him. "Mr. Sheldon," she called, "you are neglecting me shaniefullv. Wou't you come over here 1 eside me? Mr. Ainslie is just leaving." She glance I at Tom out of-the corners of her eyes. Aiuslie got tip instantly, looked at her a moment, then with a qtiiok bow crossed the room to his cousin. "Sorry, Maudie, but I must be leav ing. Williams, I'll see about those tickets." Aud he was gone. Sheldon sat down with a radiant smile, but after a few moments his fare clouded, and the radiant smile was gone. Miss Kenyon evidently did not feel like talking. All the nest day, Tom could not get her out of his mind. Ho was angry. "The impudence of her," he thought to himself, and resolved to ignore her completely. But when he stood with the bridegroom in the big church that afternoon,and saw her coming toward him in her lovely white frock, his heart gave a quoer little turn, aud then seemed to stand still. In the quick glance he had of her, he thought she looked a little pale, but so ) retty, so wonderfully pretty. As she passed by him, she looked up at him a mo ment, Tom's eyes were fixed above her head, and he never glanced at her. All during the reception and supper it was the same. His eyes never seemed to rest upon h'er, although he was wildly aware of Sheldon's devo tion. But after the excitement of the bride's departure had died away, and almost all but the house party had gone, Tom came up to her as she stood talking to Sheldou. His manner was as cool as it well could be. "May I see you a moment, Miss Kenyon?" he said quietly, lookiug at Sheldon. "Mr. Sheldon will ex«usß me?"said the girl, which Sheldon did, with as pleasant an expression as he could muster. They walked through the long drawing room to the little rose recep tion room under the stairs. It was quite deserted. "I wish to apologize, Miss Kenyon, if I offended you last night. It is perhaps needless to assure you that it was unintentional. Will you pardon me?" He stood before liir, very stiff aud straight, with his blond head well up. Tho girl was picking a rose to pieces. Her fingers trembled a little. "I am sorry if I was rude to you last night," she said, "I assure you it was quite intentional on my part, but I was very sorry after I had done it." Tom moved quickly. "Do you care for that fellow," he said. "Sheldon?" "Xo," she whispered, her eyes downcast. He hesitated a moment. "Could you ever care for me, little one?" he s<id wistfully. "Because you know I love you, dear. So much, so much. I < an't let you be so hard to me," and his voice broke a little. "Couldn't you try to love me just a little?" She looked up with a mischievous little sinile. "You are not the least little bit of a 'Conquering Hero' now," she said, and he took her into his arms. Mr. Sheldon did not attend the wedding. JACK'S GRIEVANCES. llow He Makefi Them Known to the Cnptain of the >liip. There is now but one way open for the enlisted man, bluejacket or mar ine who has a kick to register. He must show his hand and file his com plaint in his own person or name, verb ally or iu writing. If twenty, fifty, a hundred enlisted men have a common grievance, they must present that grievance in delegation to the com manding officer, or iu the form of a written bill of complaint, with their signatures attached to it in the ordei of their relative rating. In most cases the method of presenting grievances in delegation at the mast is resorted to by the enlisted men of the Ameri can navy of today. Tho man with the individual grievance occasionally puts his complaint in writing aud addresses it to the secretary of the navy. Com manding officers are compelled by regulations to forward all such com plaints to the civil chief of the navy— with, however, whatever indorsements thereon they elect to make. It's geuerally a moderately bad job for an enlisted man to write a narra tive of woe to the secretary of the navy. Such a chap doesu't frequent ly find his after career in the navy one long dream of peace aud quiet. Eu< listed men who have drawn up un reasonable complaints—even com plaints not entirely unreasonable— aud thus addressed them, have gen erally shed quite some saline tears in their hammocks afterwards over the foolishness of the act. It seems rea sonable to suppose, too—for human nature is the same on sea and land— that no bluejacket or marine can pos sibly add to his sumtotalof comfort 01 happiuess aboard ship by more or less bluntly informing the civil head of tha navy department that the commanding officer of the vessel on which he serves is an unjust man, a bully or a man who doesn't know his business. Yet this fact, which looks so obvious, is very often ignored by rash enlisted men. HofmaniiN Independence. Josef Hofmauu, the famous young piauist, is foud oi' all sorts of sports, especially of skating, in which, as a buy, he excelled. When visiting St. Petersburg a year or two Josef was summoned to play before tho ex limpress, the hour being named from 3tol in the afternoon. It was o ] erfect day. The Neva was frozen over, of course, and the skating was at its hoight. Immediately aftei luncheon Josef's father found his son dressing as if togo to the palace. "Where are you goiug?" he de manded. "To play for the Empress." "But you are not going until 3 o'clock." "Three o'clock! If I wait until then it will be too late togo skating. I'm going now." He went. And it is not a surprise to any one who knows Hofmann to learn that he played for the ex- Empress as soon as he reached the pala e, and that he then went off aud skate I the rest of the afternoon. NEW YORK FASHIONS. ! /. Designs For Costumes That Have Be- 112 come Popular in the Metropolis. = NEW YORK CITY (Special).—There are a great many blue cheviot and serge costumes to be seen just now. They BODICE FOR SEROE COSTUME. are not apparently intended for win ter wear, but yet the women are' in cluding tbem in their winter outfits. STIIEET GOWN. SIXiK AM) —From Harper's Bazar. The material is the heavy weight of serge known as the storm serge, and is very well sponged and pressed, so that it cannot be injured by wind or weather. The smartest of these cos tumes are made up with the tight-fit ting skirt with the seam in the back, but are not exaggerated in style, hav ing some iulDess putin at the back. The coat is either a short basque coat or an Eton jacket, fits closely to the figure when it is fastened, and has square revers, and a collar that can be either turned up or turned down, and that is faced with dark blue silk. A very odd and dainty touch is given to the garment by inside revers of blue velvet, trimmed with a fascinating braid of blue and silver. With this costume is worn a silk shirt waist of very dark blue with polka dots of white, or a heliotrope satin with white polka dots also. These costumes are supposed to be worn on mild days during the winter, and will undoubt edly be the smart thing for next spring. And a great variety of change can be made in them by substituting difler ent revers. Tlie Newent Street Gowim. The newest street gowns show revers that are faced with the velvet panne, aB it is called, a most fascin atingly beautiful material, very much like the velvet antique, but figured with different designs. A great many of the new skirts now designed to wear with the coats that have these fancy revers are severely plain, ex cepting in the lines of machine stitch ing or in the bias bands of cloth. In the double-column illustration the dress on the left is a light gray cloth gown, with waistcoat of white lace fastened withrhinestone buttons. Revers are faced with white satin aud edged with machine stitching. The only trimming on the gown are rows of machine stitohing. The costume in the centre is a street gown of blue cloth trimmed with fancy braid. Cuffs, revers aud muff are of blaok broadtail fur. The coat is fastened with hooks. On both coat and shirt are lines of machine stitching. The figure on the right depicts a silk and lace gown trimmed with belt and rosette of black velvet ribbon. This gown can be made of either white or black lace. The blouse front is of white mousseline de soie. Cronstadt Blue an<l Automobile. Cronstadt blue is one of the most beautiful tones in which cloth dresses are being made. It is the tint of the sea when the sky is blue and the sun brilliant. A sapphire sometimes achieves this glorious color, but is more often too sombre or too pale. A ribbed cloth in cronstadt blue is trimmed with bauds of velvet in a slightly deeper tone. The triple cape i« in velvet, and the high, flaring col lar is guipure over cronstadt blue satin, with a deep hem of sable all round. Periwinkle holds its own among all the new shades. It suits the fashionable hair, as no other color could, and almost invariably one linds that with marigold hair the flora! trimming of hat or toque is shaded hydrangea, periwinkle, pale mauve and softest rhododendron pink, deftly shading into each other. Automobile red is shown in many woolen goods, and sometimes it is dotted over with pea-spots, sometimes with irregular squares in velvet of the same s'aade, and occasionally the velvet pattern is in black or brown on a ground of the automobile cloth. Pretty unci Becoming Scarfs. Crepe scarfs for neckwear are in creasing in beauty and in softness of coloring. They are pretty and becom ing. Dainty Breakfast Jacket. One of the permanent fashions is the separate breakfast jacket multi plied by thousands and varied in style in every possible manner. Those made of French flannel seem to be the most popular. The flannel jacket calls for some very complicated neck dressing, creamy lace, chiffon, mousseline and Liberty satin holding first favor among fashion's votaries. The most up to date of all the flan nel jackets this winter will be those of a creamy white, very flue French flan nel, the quality which sells for SI to $1.50 a yard. These flannels are so fine and soft as to resemble cashmere more than flannel, and as they are capable of such an infinitesimal amount of <laiuty garnishings they will be much sought after by tha BKEAKI'AST JACKET OF FRENCH FIiANNEIi women whose fad is extreme dainti ness and freshness.
