KISSED BY THE QUEEN. The American Duchess Received with Full Honors at the English Court. From the New York World Cable. The presentation of the duke of Marlbor- ough’s American wife was the sensation of the queen's drawing-room on Friday. With the exception of the queen, the reception of the American duchess by royalty can scarcely be called cordial, though she was scrupulously ac- corded all the rights towhich her rank as a duchess entitle her. She was introduced im- mediately after the diplomatic corps had passed, and, as is usual when peeresses are pre- sented to her majesty, bent forward her right cheek for the queen to kiss. In every move- ment the duchess showed, ease. grace. and the effects of careful drilling gone through. Though many critical eyes were upon her, she never hesitated for a moment or made a single mistake, It is a long time since the queen has Kissed an American-born duchess—probably not since the duchess of Leeds died many years ago. After the royal kiss the queen held the duchess by the hand for a moment and spoke a few words of kindly welcome. But this — i of royalty did not extend ry + Prince ahd’ Princes of Wales. As the has never met either of them person- ally it not absolutely necessary that there be qny a ——— of her al bow. point on which = new — jueen was remem beriny that the court is . ‘hournin fac the pei of Cambridge by going ina black dress, She was superbly arrayed. Her bodice and trajm were of black satin, brocaded in silk, with an exquisite design of sweeping ferns thrown grat Ly across. The train was lined with satin and was bordered all around with ostrich bere relieved at intervals by bou- quets of splendid plumes. The underskirt was * won production of black net, embroid- ered in a Louis XVI design of « bold and effec- tive nature in gold, silver and fine cut jet. The back was most cunningly enwrought with smaller wreaths in black filorelle, so exquisitely executed as to look like the finest lace. The duchess also wore some magnificent jewels, among them the famous Marlborough dia- monds, in which the first duchess, the famous Sarah, was presented to Queen Anne. The bouquet carried with this unique costume was made entirely of the now celebrated Bien- heim orchids of the Cattlega and Cypripedium varieties, shading from delicate mauve to white, frmged with silver and pale green fol! sur- rounded by similar orchid trails, the whole posy being tie ith long mauve silk ribbons. The duchess was presented by her mother-in-law, the dowager duchess. who, despite the protests of some of the other members of the family, takes very kindly to the American wife of her eldest son. Of course that of itself is of an im- mense help to her in a social way. The dow- ager duchess wore a train and bodice of vei handsome black brocaded satin, lined witl sutin, the petticoat being of black satin duch- esse, with a tablier of gold jet embroidery and lappets of jetted tulle... A Priest at a Fire. A fireon the farm formerly belonging to Senator McPherson, near Woodbridge, N. J., was discovered Sunday. ‘Whe farmers were penie-stricken and did nothing to stay the tiames until Father Devine, a local Catholic . took charge. He threw off his coat, vd to the men to follow him. worked for two hours. and they then succeeded in getting the conflagration in check. He was on his way when the fire occurred. Princeton Theological Seminary. The graduating exercises of the Princeton Theological seminary were held yesterday when diplomas were conferred on forty-eight men from all partsof the United States and Canada and three from Europe. The George reen fellowship, in Hebrew, was awarded to Edward Mack, of South Carolina. and the New Testament fellowship to E. B. McGiivary, of North Carolina. They are worth $600 and 3500. respectively. The Carter Brothers’ prizes were awarded to L. B. Paton, of New ersey: L, A. Oates, of South Carolina, and L, J. MeLeod, of Prince Edward Island. The Seribner prizes were taken by E. B. McGilvary, H. A. White, of Georgia, and Wm. F. Gobbins, of Pennsylvania. Rev. Richard Harlan, of New York. and Hon. John Scott, of Phiiadel- phia, were elected directors, and Rev. Paul Vandyke, son of Dr. H. J. Vandyke, and an siumaus of both college and seminary, was elected instructor in church history. Sake CLE Fatal Drop of an Elevator. A large crowd assembled in the new Schwartz building, in Providence, yesterday, to witness the test of the passenger elevator built by L. 8. Graves & Son, of Rochester. The superintend- ent of construction, A. Cornell, was to cut the elevator loose and let it fall the whole five stories. a disiance of 65 feet, to the air-tight brick vault at the bottom. to show the entire safety of such a fall. A basket of eggs and a glass of water were to go down, too. Mr. Cor- nell, with Mr. Jones, the manager, and the eggs and water, were accompanied by Jacob Rosen- feld, a reporter for the Telegram. The eleva- tor went down with awful velocity. When the elevator door was opened the three men were found ving on the bottom of the car insensibie, with their heads badly eut. Their injuries may prove fatal, ag all suffered a severe spinal shock. the seriousness of which is not deter- ruined. Mr. Jones was the most severely hurt and will probably die. The reporter seems to have suffered the least. paceman eee Lady White’s Heroism. From the Pall Mall Gazette. Everybody in,Constantinople is talking about the heroism of Lady White, wife of the British ambassador. She has been suffering from an ternal tumor, for the removal of which Dr. Sarell declared a dangerous operation to be necessary. Without consulting her husband or any one else Lady White determined to undergo the operation; but in order not to disturb the carnival festivities in which the English em- bassy has this year taken a leading part she said nothing of her intention even to her hus- bend, but quietly put all her affairs in order, wade her will and appeared cheerful and hos- pitable as usual, as the presiding spirit at the embassy ball. which took place on the last night of carnival. The next day Pera society was startled by the announcement that Lady White was lying dangerously ill. This was all that was allowed to be made known, but the operation had been rformed. For three days she lay between life and death. On the fourth she was declared to be out of danger, and then the truth leaked out. The admira- tion excited by Lady White's stoical courage is unbounded among people of all classes and nationalities in the Turkish capital. ——— 00 © Taz Evesive Stan circulates in the city where printed a larger number of copies in proportion to population than any paper in the world, and its circulation in Washington is greater than that of all the other daily papers im the city added together. it verifies its claims by affidavits and by opening its books to the inspection of those interested.

Statement of what Prince Bismarck will be Satisfied with. Cable Special to the New York Herald. Bears, May 6.—From a source which, though excellent, I am not at liberty to quote, Iam enabled to present to you an approximate estimate of the terms that would satisfy Ger- many in a solution of the Samoan difficulty. It cannot be denied—nor is it denied by Americans who have been in the islands—that the Germans have invested in Samoa more money (three times as much, they claim) than both England and the United States taken to- gether. What the German government, there- fore, claims is, in the first place, satisfaction for the killing of the German officers and sail- ors in the action with Mataafa’s men on Decem- ber 17 last, and secondly, compensation for the losses sustained by German investors and own- ers of plantations, WILLING TO BE BOUGHT OUT. If, therefore, the United States will purchase the plantations owned by the German com- pany. or if the Samoans themselves will pur- chase these plantations, payment being guar- anteed by the United States, Germany will not make the slightest opposition to the installation of Malietoa or some one of the minor chiefs not hitherto named—Tamasese having no fol- lowing and Mataafa being utterly out of the ion from the German standpoint, the state of war, too, still nominally existing. They also probabiy urge the punishment of Mataafa, say, by imprisonment for a time on board a German man-of-war or on an island un- der the German flag. They may waive this condition in consideration of a round sum paid to the widows and orphans or the nearest rela- tions of the Germans slain on the island. The third condition, equally acceptable to each of the three powers, is that the three col- lectively guarantee the neutrality of Samoa, WHAT GERMANY WANTS TO SAVE. In other words, Germany wishes to save her stake in the islands, and it would perhaps be the wisest policy on the part of the United States to accept this—after all, simplest—solu- tion of the difficulty, and,by well-timed conces- sion to Germany's tender sense of honor and solicitude for the welfare of her colonists, make a friend of her forever. Well-informed Germans assure me that Count Herbert Bismarck had not the slightest inten- tion of impressing the English speaking mem- bers of the conference with sense of the greatness of Germany at the expense of their own feelings when he made that famous speech in French at the beginning of the conference. He was obliged—though he speaks English like an Englishman—to uphold his right to use French as the language of diplomatic inter- course. If he had opened the conference in English, the Spani , Italians, Portugese, or Russians might have pointed to the precedent as a justification of their right to use their own language. with which he might not be equally familiar, at some future conference. OUR ENVOYS SPOKE FRENCH, Nor is it true that two of the American mem- bers of the conference were entirely ignorant of that language. Mr. Phelps spoke that lan- guage in diplomatic intercourse at the Anstrian court. and Mr. Bates himself assured me that he understood almost every word the count uttered on that memorable occasion, At the presentation of the colors last Thurs- day morning to the first regiment of foot guards, Messrs. Kasson, Phelps and Bates were in_ evening dress, and I understand that the kaiser was graciously pleased to express his re- gret at the iron rule that insists on that cos- tume on such occasions as a substitute for full uniform. Amid that rete crowd of imperial juests, attired one and all in uniforms of every ue of the rainbow, the American representa- tives attracted general notice by the republi- can simplicity of their attire. ‘It is safe to say that ifever three American diplomatists re- retted the absence of a diplomatic uniform in the American service these three gentlemen did. The two young naval officers, Lieutenants Buckingham and Parker, were in fall uniform, cocked hats and all, and a couple of handsomer young fellows could scarcely have been picked out to do Uncle Sam's service credit. WHAT IS ENGLAND'S POSITION? While it is well-known that England's lean- ings in the conference are toward Germany, on that vexed question of the secret understand- ing concerning Tonga Sir Edward maintained an obstinate silence. He expressed himself, however, in a very kindly manner regarding the favorable impression produced upon him- self and others at the conference by their American colleagues. Sir Edward (and there is po better judge in such matters) is inclined to think that another month will see the labors of the conference ended. He had met Mr. Kasson before at the Congo conference, when both of them were representing their respect- ive countries, In Sir Edward's library there lies on a little spider table near the window a large folio vol- ume containing, in all the glory of gilt edges and magnificent printing, the minutes of the Congo conference, CONVENIENT FOR REFERENCE. When I asked Sir Edward about how often the Samoan conference would sit he turned to this book, and after consulting it said he be- lieved that now. as at the Congo conference. all matters of detail would be referred to subcommittee. The Congo conference, he re- marked, only sat ten times during three months. Five six or sittings, therefore, will in all probability suffice to settle the Samoan matter. Nothing could have been more eminently gracious than the manner in which Count Bis- marck received his guests at dinner the other day in the Garter pavillion of the foreign office, where he makes his home. When the hour for leave-taking came—and it was a late one, for Count Herbert is a host who will not be de- nied—he walked across the large garden with each oue of the departing guests, while in the great trees that surround the house the siren Voices of great numbers of nightingales poured forth a volume of sweet melody to enchant the ears of Uncle Sam's republican representa- tives. SHOWING HIS CLAW. Some people have ventured to assert that when the emperor issued his invitations to the Americans to attend the parade at Potsdam he did so with a view of impressing them with a sense of the military power of Germany. If so, he certainly succeeded. “Nowhere in the world,” said one of the naval officers attached to the commission, “can You see such absolute precision of movement and such large masses of men so deftly and skilfully handled.” Good for a Museum, From the Youth's Companion. The old lady who never spoke ill of anyone, and even intimated that Satan himself set some good people an example of perseverance, must have been a relative to the woman who lived in Sussex, England, in the days when the kettle was hung from the crane in an open fireplace. An Enghsh clergyman tells the story: Aman, whose wife was blessed with a re- markably even temper, went over the way to a neighbor one evening and said: “Neighbor, I should like to see my wife cross for once. I've tried all I know, and I can't make her cross no way.” “You can’t make your wife cross?” said his neighbor. “I wish I could make mine any- thing else. But you do just what I tell you, and if that won't act nothing will. You bring her in some — a lot of the crookedest sticks you can get, them as won't lie in no form, and see how she makes out then, The pieces of wood were accordingly brought in, as awkward and crooked and contrary as could be found, The man went away early to work, and at noon returned to see the results of his experiment... He was eted with a smile and the gentie request: “Tom, do bring me in some more of those crooked sticks, if ou can find them; they do just fit around the ettle so nicely!

In presenting THE EVENING STAR in its new ress and improved form, attention is called to tt Peculiar merits as a news and family paper, a@ well as to the extraordinary advantages it affordg to advertisers. aligh professional authority—which in this ime stance only expresses public sentiment—has des clared that “THERE 1S NO BETTER EVENING WSPAPER IN YHE UNITED STATES” thap THESTAR But even more than this may be justly claimed forit. In ail that relates to the composie tion of first-class journal, devoted to news, busie ness, family and local affuirs, it takes rank wit, the very best in the world, and in the special qualy ites named ft is not surpassed by any. Wits alert, intelligent and izapartial special correspoud- ents at all centers of interest, by the free use af the telegraph, and with the superior mechanical facilities with which its office is equipped, it coverg the whole feld of news, and is able to present@ Tefex of the entire civilized world each day up td the very moment of going to press. In these rey pects THE STAR is absolutely without @ rival, an@ fearlessly challenges comparison, within range of the territory it occuptes. In its treatment of public affairs tt is impartial and dims to be fair and just to all faithsand intens ests, and it is absolutely independent, in the bighe est and broadest sense of the term. In the publlg cation of news it records facts without bias o® color, and in the expression of editorial opinion it is as steady and firm in advocating and promoting only What it believes to be right, as it is persisteng in condemning aud opposing what it belleves to be Wrong. It is, in brief, wholly untrammeled by any’ other incerest or consideration than thatof serving the public, and securing as far as possible the wele fare of the family circle, and of society asa wholey With these general objects in view, what Tam STAR specially concerns itself with, and that tq Which it gives its best efforts, may be briefly des scribed as THE INTERESTS OF WASHINGTON AND THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. To these the paper has been unswervingly devoted since its present management assumed its direction, Sud this policy will characterize the future career of the paper as prominently as it has marked its past history. 48 AN ADVERTISING MEDIUM. The EVENING STAR claims to be, and can com clusively establish that it 1s, the best local advertise tng medium in the world! NO OTHER PAPER PRINTED CIRCULATES SO MANY COPIES IN THE CITY OF ITS PUBLICATION, IN PROPORTION TO POPCLATION. It is hardly too much to say that it is read by the mem. bers of every family in the District of Columbia. It is peculiarly the favorite of the home circle, and Ye no less esteemed in the counting room and the | Work shop. It follows, therefore, that es an agent Of publicity within the National Capital and com tiguous territory it bas no rival, An announces ‘ment in its columns practically meets all eyes, and, in proportion to the service it gives, its advertising rates rank with the lowest in the country. Being low, they are rigidly adhered to, There only rem mains to be added on this head, as an indication Of the esteem in which the paper is held bythe business public, which best understands its own interests in this respect, that, both in the number Of subscribers and of new advertisements printed, each year in the history ot the paper shows a large Ancrease over its predecessor. For example, during the frst nine months of the present year the average daily circulation of the paper has been 26,681 copies, and ge whole number of new advertisements erg against an average daily circulation of 25, copies and 38,504 new advertisémént® THE STAR has never taken a tn conductor are determined at SOD *akeoné, THE WEEKLY STAB Js eepectaily commended to that portion of 2 Feading public who desire to be Kept advised affairs at the seat of government, and arp 20 a Ated as not to peed or care for a daily papery in every respect @ first-class family journsh fig ews is carefully collected, and may be dépendeg upon to be fresh andauthentic.
