A reporter forthe New York Star, who was present recently when Mrs. Langtry was taking a fencing lesson, describes the scene as follows: The little cap goes twirling on one of the low divans; the crimson cloak parts from throat to shoe and follows it. There is a gleam of white, a revelation of beauty, and the actress stands clad in the pretties costume woman ever wore. There ia a close-fitting white buck- skin fencing jacket, padded over ,the bust and buttoned high up around the throat, white gauntlets reach almost to the elbow, and white stockings with heavy black cloaks reach tothe knee. The loose trousers are of crermy woolen, and the soleless shoes white and laced with silken ribbons. All the conversation was in French, and the actress chatted as volubly as the ready-tongued swordsman. Every- thing was pure white about her costume, and even the binding of the mask, which usually iseither red or green, was of white enameled leather. Her favorite foils are of the daintiest, bluest steel that ever held a button to a fencer's jacket, and in keeping with the color of her costume; the handles are of whito enameled leather closely wrapped with glittering gold cord. ‘The fencers took their positions. No masks were worn, for they were about to give the grand salute. As she threw herself in the position of *tattention.”” and prepared for the movements of the salute, the big steel-gray eyes lighted up with some hidden fire of impulse, blazed with a new light, spots of height- ened color crept, slowly far upon the cheeks, the foil, held lightly by the up- r part of the biade, dangied at the left side as if in a scabbard, the white sandaled feet stood at right angles. For an instant the picture was cut as clear as if in marble; then the rigit hand of the actress, like a flash, drew the slender blade uatil the button touch- ed the palm of the hand, which held it as a scabbard, raised both hands above the head, held them there for a moment, and then dropped the point quickly to the fourth position of “engage.” The knees bent fully. fourteen inches, the shapely right foot was planted to the front, and the guard was perfect. ‘The grip on the corded handle of the slender foil tightened, the actress made a little motion to the wary fencer facing her to lunge at the breast; he touched the swelling white jacket with the button of his foil, then rapidly raised his foil to high carte; hers followed; he hinged again; she met him, lightning hke, with After an hour of sharp work Mrs. Langtry’s custom is to wrap her cloak about her, and sit for awhile before the open fire while she cats a biscuit moist- ened in claret. The violent exercise has brought every muscle into action, and perspiration comes in little torrents down her temples. “It is the best thing I know for the skin and complexion,” she said, ‘and the exercise I believe to be the most healthful in the world.” 0 Guerrilla Mosby. John S. Mosby, the famous confeder- ate officer, is now practicing law in San Francisco, and is making fame. Mosby had just begun the practice in Warren- ton, Va., when the war began, and no- body thought he would make much uf a soidier until he demonstrated his rare military capacity. He was a delicate young fellow, with literary tastes and a decided fonduess for society. He owed his appointment as consul to Hong Kong to an impression be made on Gen. Grant, whom he met ac- cidentally soon after the war. When Grant became President he tendered Mosby several federal offices before the consulship was offered him. In Hong Kong he was distinguisbed for his luxu- rianut style of life and spent all the hand- some income of his office. He is now about 50 years old and 1s settling down to business —Atianta Constitution. * the swinging high tierce guard that aa i Before sailing for home General preggo gg weapon back soroes Booth, of the Salvation Army, claimed © of lite had be e been the lings of after trving p! ians and nu Ss remedies, have used Athlophoros and r d to their great joy this medicine really did cure these diseases. could have pion out in knocked the world’s five minutes." e speaker was W m Blaikie, At Dubuque, Iowa, the-draggists say Ath- the well-known New York Jawver, | lophoros beats them all.

He walked that nicht to — THE HOUSE OF THE SEVEN GABLES, twenty-six miles there, twenty-six miles back again, and was xt the college be- foresunrise the next morning—fifty-two miles in a single night. Aod he don’t think anything of a walk of twenty miles even now. Remember the story of how he broke the sword for a Ger- man officer who persistently insulted him on the bridge in Germany? Julian has a sweet, kind, friendly disposition, and wouldn't quarrel with any one. But he took the sword out of the hands of the German officer, broke it across his knee and threw it over the brid, into the river below. And he could have dropped the big German in after it if he had ‘been so disposed. “Hawthorne was an athlete, but he was also a scholar. One of the best things I ever saw him do was when he helped Eliot Clark, son of James Free- man Clark, out in his studies. Haw- thorne came into young Clark's room to pet Clark to go on some short ex- cursion. “Can't go,’ said Clark; ‘got to write a theme.” * Ob, that’s the trouble,’ said Haw- throne. ‘Let me have your pen. What's the subject?” ** “TENNYSON'S IDYLS OF THE KING.’ “In half an hour Julian Hawthorne dashed off a review which has since been the wonder of Harvard and sur- prised the best critics. He gav@ it to Eliot; Clark. “The next time our professor saw James Freeman Clark he exclaimed: «4 want to congratulate you upon your son’s production. During the thirty years that I have been connected with the school I have never seen any- thing equal to it.’ “The next day, at the dinner table, James Freeman Clark told his son about the compliment paid to his work. Young Clark at once gave Hawthorne the credit of it. “When Hawthorne selected a name Admunistrator’s Notice.

The condemnation of the critics is outweighed by the voice of fashion, and Lord Tennyson is: as much the fashion now as ever.
