exhibit on or about June S Iff from Cape Pembroke Falkland Islands a new white flashing light in lieu of the present fixed light The new light will show one flash every ten seconds lasting slxtyflve

House London will issue further notice before the light te exhibited Through the death of the Archduke Otto his widow Archduchess Maria Jo sefa Is compelled to relinquish her high position as first lady of the Austrollun garian court There has been much pecu- lation In aristocratic circles as to which of the archduchesses would succeed her After much consideration the Emperor has decided in favor of his niece Arch- duchess Maria Annunciate halfsister of Otto and abbess of the famous Theresan Convent of Noble Ladles at Prague The position of first lady at the Viennese court Is one of great honor and dignity Its occupant virtually playing the role of Empress Archduchess Maria Annunciata will continue as abbess at Prague the post being one of such Importance and profit that it Is always reserved for an archduchess The Income amounts to hOG a year besides sumptuous apartments- in the magnificent abbey which occupies a commanding position by the side of the cathedral and Hradschln Imperial pal- ace high above the city of Prague The abbey was founded by the Empress Maria Theresa exclusively for ladles of noble birth and Its members are all nominated by the Emperor Each has a separate apartment of two rooms with service and receives about 500 a year They can go Into society and some of thorn are always to be seen at court balls They enjoy the use of handsome carriages with liveried servants and a box at the opera There are no restrictions as to residence the ladles can be there as much or as lit- tle as they please When they go Into so some of them are always to be seen at court must wear black evening dress with the blue ribbon of their order When they marry as many of them do they must of course leave the abbey otherwise they can re main as long as they live An unmarried archduchess cannot occupy the leading place at court but as Abbess of Prague Maria Annunciata ranks as a married archduchess It may be asked why the Emperors granddaughter the Archduch- ess Elizabeth daughter of the Illfated Rudolph Is not nominated by the Em peror as first lady of the court but in the intricate and complex etiquette of Aus trian society Incomprehensible to the un initiated this is impossible because the husband of Archduchess Elizabeth Prince WIndlschGrazt Is not sufficiently high rank to permit the granddaughter of the Emperor

was between the ages of thirtysix and fortyflve during the time when he was leader of the court concerts and operas at Weimar and during the time of the mighty changes evolving in Europe when the point of view of art and life and literature became expansive fantastic and mystical when the Renaissance was come and Romanticism reigned Franz Liszt who drank deep of the font of his time became the champion of the romantic in music and in orchestral music the writer of a new style of compositionprogramme music which In form and content one may call the musical Insignia or symbol of this epoch Twelve symphonic poems and two symphonies Faust and The Divina Coraedia were Liszts contribu- tion to this form of composition Theee two symphonies although in the strictest sense programme music are

It is learned that there Is no suchas pure white sugar that sugar

Confectioners have even made so boldas to advertise marble dust for thevery purpose of adulteration and it Isregrettable to say there was a demandthat well repaid the advertiser for hisexpense and his daring It evenclaimed that sand is used in whitesugar for the purpose of increasing itsweight and bulk

There Is a foreign substance calledultramarine remaining in the processof manufacture which is often addedto white sugar to give it the requisiteblue Whatever the result of thecommissions permanent rulings wehave bean taught that white sugar isimpure and brown sugar will comeInto style again
