DUKES DANCE WITH COOKS White PrlsccMti Haof I the Aran of Butler -Domestic Servants Mul Be Pampered America Ttklnj Lead la Golf. LONDON. Dec. 22. There will be- a merry CbrUtmaa though In consequence London la already one of the dullest apot in the United Kingdom. The fash ionable world has deserted the metropo lia and sought refuge In the country place. There will be auch a round of house parties as haa been unknown for sev eral year. They will be accompanied by the revival of the queer, old customs which a century ago made the season the occasion for unrestrained merry making among rich and poor alike. It would seem that those who are able to celebrate realise the necessity for de tracting public attention from the events in South Africa. At Osborne, the queen will be sur rounded by the Duke and Duchess of York, the Princess of Battenberg and several of her grandchildren. At Sand ringham. the Prince of Wale will en tertain the Duke and Duchess of Fife and their children with royal Christ mas trers. Welbeck abbey. Blenheim palace. Hatfield house and all stately homes of EnRland's aristocracy are filling up with scores of guests prepared to make the most of yule tide. Balls, amateur the atricals and entertainments without end have bn arranged, conspicuous among which is the old English cus tom of a dance in the servants' hall. At the Duke and Duchess of Devon shire's, Earl and Countess Spencer's, the Mariuls and Marchioness of Lon donderry's and other places of the no- j bllity. Christmas eve will be marked by the strange spectacle of butlers dancing with princesses and footmen with countesses while ladles' maids. chambermaids and cooks will hang on to the arras of cabinet ministers and other male heads of Illustrious lines. The ancient practice of London own ers enjoying the servants quadrille bad almost lapsed, except In the case of a few families. The revival is. perhaps, no little due to the increasing necessity for pampering the Brltich servant The Onlooker says the householders now have to study the comfort of their domes'lcs as much as their own and quotes one country house where a set of rooms is specially allotted to them for recreation, comprising a ball room, music room, library and billiard room In which a market Is kept for th? servants' sole use. DISGUSTED GOLFER. In striking contrast to this ia the treatment accorded to Bernard Xlch olls, the American golfer who def rated the English crack, Peter Paxton, Thursday. Nicbolls, who ia of Eng lish birth, Mturned here after having passed many years in America. The Tot ting Bee Golf Club compelled him to lunch fn the workshop, though the club members were glad to face the December storm to witness his play. Nleholls said: "Had I not been before in America and witnessed the lavish kindness be stowed on Vardon and other English players. I might not have resented this treatment: but, you may be assured. I will never remain in England long and if it were not for meeting Braid Saturday, who is a personal friend. I would not play on another English link. Tou may depend on it. Vardon will not remain here long, for I know he will be unable to stand this sort of thing after the kindness he has receiv ed in America. "The curious thing about it all is that America will soon outstrip Eng land not only in golf playing but in the manufacture of golf equipment, for they are getting the best talent In England which under better auspices is sure to outstrip the home talent." MRS. MAVERICK'S CASE. Once again Mrs. Florence Maybrick spends an unhappy Christmas in her prison cell. In spite of the various re ports, her chances of liberty are no brighter than last year. Secretary Hay has forwarded to Mr. Choate several private letters which will shortly be presented to the new home secretary, Mr. Ritchie, in accordance with the custom on the approach of each new occu pant of that office. But the Associated Press learns there is no possible chance of anything be ing done so long as Lord Salisbury Is lord high chancellor. Where the cab inet to discuss the matter, as it did once before, it could only refer It to the crown's chief adviser. Lord Hals bury, who apparently made the Maybrick care the basis of a feud with the late Lord Chief Justice Baron Russell, of Klllowen, and cherishes it just as bitterly now as before Lord Russell's death. When a new chancellor Is appointed Mrs. May brick will have a good chance of free dom. The Duchess of Bedford, who Is re ported to be especially Interested In Mrs. Maybrick. tells the Associated Press that he only seeg the celebrated prisoner in the course of her regular visits to Aylesbury prison, not espec ially in the Interest of hr case, and doe not IntenJ to express any opinion of her guilt or innocence. 1 TIT IAS TO BIS CONFERRED.

Hobbs, head of the recently formed Canadian furniture combine. now in London, has decided that the Canadians have no need of the assist ance or of the co-operation of English financiers which was originally project ed. A significant fact showing Canada's progress is that sufficient funds are easily obtained there while the new law oniing Into force January 1 In the United Kingdom Impcwa an almost pro hibitory taxation on new corporations. AT THE THEATERS. About forty pantomimes will be pro duced In and around London durlns the holidays. "Cinderella" being the mot popular production, no ftw. r than nine versions being presented. Nearly all thJ theaters are already doing a crowd-J holiday business. Frohm.in's production of "Alice In Wonderland" at the Vaudeville Wedr day, with Ella Line Terrlss as AtUv? and Seymour Hicks as the ma 1 hat ter, was not successful from the critic' stan rt point.

In connection with the matter various plans havs been suggested and the price movement gives evidence that something of the kind is under consideration. HILL IN NEW TOXIC. President of Great Northern In Confer ence With Important Capi talists. NEW YORK. Dec. SI The Herald says: James J. Hill, president of the Great ortnern Hallway Company, has ar rived in this city and was In conference last evening with some of the most Im portant capitalists of the country, rep resenting Morgan. Vanderbilt and Stan dard Oil Interests. Mr. Hill's presence In the city Is re garded as of peculiar Interest In view of the recent stock market activity In Northern Pacific with the accompany ing reports of a readjustment of the capitalization of that comnanv and his recent election also to the directorate of the Erie railroad. !he "-hares of hich have also been extra-wdlnarily active In the market. From inquiries It appears that Mr. RACE WAR THREATENED. Hiring of Italian Laborers to Work In a Colorado Smelter Causes Trouble, DENVER. Dec. 22.-Dr. Joseph Cuneo, Italian consul, mad? an appeal to Gov ernor Thomas for protection of his countrymen Involved In a threatened race war at Flormce. His request was that pressure be brought on the Fre mont county authorities to exercise all precautions at their command to pre vent an outbreak and, If necessary, to rail out the mllltlu. The consul also wired the Italian ambassador at Wash ington to appeal to President McKln ley for federal aid should the state au horiilai be unable to cope with the situation. The threatened trouble Is the result of the Importation of a number of Ital ians to work In a snr'lter for thi treat ment of guld ore. The mill and smelter men's union ob jected, but no serious action has been taken, though threats are said to have been made. Edward Se.-d, an employe of the smelter, was killed yesterday, apparently by accident, by one of the Italians. This incident has Inorwwed the bitter feeling and a race war has been predicted. EXPOSITION AT SPOKANE. Great Show of Mineral Wealth of the Northwest Will Be Held In 1901. SPOKANE. Dec. 22. At a meeting presided over by Mayor J. M. Corn stock last night and attended by thirty business and mining men It was decld ed to hold an exposition In Spokane from June to November. 1902. A com mlttee was appointed to develop the de tails of the exposition management. Exposition of the mlnteral wealth of Washington, Idaho. Oregon, Montana and British Columbia will be the fea ture of the show. Congress will be asked for an appropriation of $;.V).000 and each ktate and district represented will also contribute. Those interested Hill's visit Is of a special nature and 'n the project are the wealthiest and will be brief. Attempts made to see Mr. Hill proved unavailing, as were al so attempts to reach other prominent financiers identified closely with .such properties as the Great Northern. Chl cago.Milwaukee & St Paul, Northern Pacific and the Erie roads. Harmony of interest and emmunity of ownership Is the bee In every Wall street bonnet at present and the sug gestion is made that this theory may be extended to properties which, while not recently regarded as disturbing factors. might become so In hands other than those now representing the control. Among such properties are the Chica go, Milwaukee & St. Paul, and the Erie railroads. The latter. It is said, has great potentialities, particularly since It has acquired the Pennsylvania Coal Company and seems likely to assume an Important position among the trunk lines. It Is asserted upon the very best authority that the three principal stockholders In the Great Northern Railway namely, James J. Hill, John S. Kennedy and Lord Strathcona are now the three largest stockholders of the Northern Pacific road. Lord Strathcona and Mr. Kennedy were for merly directors In the Great Northern. most prominent mining and business men of Spokane. The governors of each northwestern state will be given official titles and be made members of the executive staff of the fair. The name adopted was the Northwest International Mining Expo sition. JUDGMENT GIVEN. Cripple Creek Millionaire Will Forced to Pay His Ellis. Be DENVER. Dec. 22. A Judgment for S1M,Sj5 was given in the United States oircult court, here In favor of Orrln B. Peck, of Chicago, against Wlnfleld 8. Stratton. the Cripple Creek millionaire. Peek had contracted io erect a con ontiatlng plant at the Independence mine and Mr. Stratum claimed the con tract was not fulfilled. RECRUITS FOR MANILA. Three Hundred Left New York Yester day by Special Train. NEW YORK, Dec. 22. About 300 re cruits are to leave Fort Slocum, Long Island sound, today for Manila. Thev The former is a director and a member will go overland to San Francisco on a of the executive committee of the Ca nadian Pacific and is of great Influence In Canadian affairs. It appears as though harmony of In terest In the Northwest Is now complete through these great Interests and those of Mr. Morgan In these properties, the Great Northern, Northern Pacific and Canadian Pacific. In view of this situation, Mr. Hill's election to the directorate of the Erie road Is of considerable significance. The stock of the Chicago. Millwaukee & St. Paul has been steadily acquired by powerful Interests not far removed from those that have recently bought Into the Northern Pacific. One peculiar fact is that while the stock, selling at a relatively high price and bought presumably for Invest ment or In furtherance of gome great plan. Is being picked up continually, It Is now being transferred on the books of the company. This leads to the be lief that It is being gathered in for some great purpose to be made clear later on. By persons well Informed on the railroad situation it is said that a tri fle more than one-half of the combi nation stock of the St. Paul road is rep resented in the board of directors. It is said also that this is not necessarily a fixed interest and that some one large holder, the Standard Oil, for instance, uniting with the new purchasers, who may for illustration be assumed to be James J. Hill. John 8. Kennedy and J. Pierpont Morgan & Company, the special train. Several officers who have been de tached and have received orders to Join regiments In the Philippines will go with them. RELIGION OF WORLD'S RULERS. Kings, Queens, Emperors and Presi dents and Their Various Creeds. iCopyrlghtf 1W0, Christian Herald.) The religion of the head of a state or nation is usually the predominant belief of the nation lts.lf. In the reli gions of the world's rulers today, many different creeds arc represented. With rare exceptions, the hads of nations are punctilious in fulfilment of their religious duties, thus setting a good example to their subjects. Queen Victoria, as devout a Chris tian as the humblest member of the Church cf England, is a great lover of hymns. Her sfavcrites used to be "Nearer My God to Thee," "Jesus, Lover of My tioul," and "Haw Sweet the Name of Jesus Sounds," Of late years, her choice has become confined almost entirely to hymns relating to the future state and breathing the spirit of resig nation. At service, she ha frequently asked that the choir sing, "Wake for the Night Is Flying." Wilhelm, the young and energetic German emperor. Is a sincerely moral and religious man. He is a Protestant, believing In the tenets of Luther. Wil helm is one of the. few monarchs In history who havs preached. On hit yacht he never takes minister along, but personally acts at spiritual fa hv of the (amity aboard. On Sundays at id he conducts divine service, taking hit place behind the uttsr and preach I it it a sermon. The husband of Queen Wlthclmlns of Holland will surely be a Protestant, tor she Is herself the best and most regular worshiper lu the Dutch church, Moreover the law of her land win not permit her to marry a Catholic. She studied the Bible under a special pro fessor, and many anecdotes are re latevi of the qu'cutloni by which she sought enlightenment. King Christian of Denmark, though personally Inollned to the Lutheran church, hold most liboml roHiilou views regarding his people and mem bert of his family. King Oscar II. of Sweden It of the Protestant faith, practical Christian, and an anient stu dent of Ih ltlble. SttltierlniHl'a prvsl dent, Colonel Edward Muller, Is Protestant and a member of the Church of Berne. He worships simply a a prl sate cltlten, walking to and from church every Sunday morning with his family. President Kruger. of the South African republic If he can now b call ed the president Is of ceurs a mem ber of the Dutch Protestant church. He is fond of lay ministrations. The Emperor Francis Joseph of Aus trla Is a devout Catholic. Every Sun day nrnlig he heart mast In the paluce chapel. He wars civilian Jresa and remain standing throughout the service, his head bared ami bowed. M Loubet. the most democratic presld n Franco has known. Is a Catholic, am prefer to worship In a simple way u a private citiien. King ictor t.nrtn- ual of Italy Is a Roman Catholic. Car lot I., of Portugal, is a Catholic, n In dolent and as apathetic In his religious dutl'-s as In thoxe of his nilership. Al fonso, the boy king of Spain. Is I Catholic. Tope Io Mil. Is hit god father. With his mother, the queen regent, he attends iiiu.hs every Sunday eopold, king of the HcIkUiis, Is Catholic. The r of Russia, the only layman of the orthodox Itusslun church who is allowed to step fiHt Into an altar.- has his private chapel In both St. Peters burg and Moscow. There high muss for his majesty very Sunday. The music Is entirely vocal, the singers be Ing Invisible, according to the customs of the church no Instrumental music being allowed. The altar in the rtar's chapel Is behind gulden gates In which sacred subjects are frescoed. Suddenly the gates burst oen and the "Gloria" Is sung by the Invisible choir. Both the ciar and ciarina re very punc tilious about their hours of worship King George of Greece, and Queen Olga are both devote of the Ortho dox Greek church. Their private chap el In Athens Is one of the prettiest little churches In Greece. Here they worship every Sunday when In the cap ital. Nicholas, ruler of Montenegro, al so live according to the teachings of the Orthodox Orwk church. King Carl of Roumnnla and "Carmen Sylva," his queen, belong to the same church, as does Prince Ferdinand of Bulgaria. King Alexander, of Servla, Is of the orthodox Greek faith, but not at all regular In his church attendance. The sultan of Turkey, an extreme Mohammedan, goes to public worship at the big mosque In Constantinople every Friday. He rides In a closed car rlage attended by ten thousand soldiers, and alt along the line of march the peo ple shout, as he peas sen: "There la no God but Allah and Mohammed Is his prophet." On all other days In the year he worships In private. The khedJve of Egypt and all his family are also of the Mohammedan faith. At the ala baster mosque of Mohamet All In Cairo. once a year, the khedlve and all the male members of his household attend public worship. No outsider Is permit ted to attend. The shah of Pers'a Is a Mohammedan who observe his re ligious duties only In a most perfunc tory and worldly way. The sultan of Morocco, a young man only eighteen years old, Is of the Mohammedan faith, the religion of his predecessors. Menelik II. king of Abyssinia, goes to his natlvn church every day In the year. On Sunday he attends Holy Trinity church; for Christianity was Intro duced Into his country In the fourth century.
