Katner Embarrassing. Louisville, Ky., Dec. 4. Governor Bradley, upon receiving letters and A brisk controversy has been going on about cigarette-bmoking women in the columns of the North American Eeview and other periodicals, and those who broke lances for and ngainst were women. Mrs. Lynn Lynton, whose novels are read here as feuille tons so extensively and with so much gusto, is quoted as lending the assault against the lady smokers. Is it true that she calls the cigarette when in a lady's mouth the emblem of revolt? If so, she is not up to date, so far as continental practices go. The cigar ette has not yet found its way with after-dinner coffee into the official drawing-room, but it rioon will. At all the houses setting up to style it is served at intininto dejeuners and small b:it lively dinners. Xobody i-s lihoclced at ladies smoking not merely onccigarette npiece but two or three. A minister of Queen Christina says that highly respectable and respec ted royal lady isan.inveterate and a vet eran smoker. She got in the habit ol smoking a cigarette when she was ab bess of the IIradr:chin, t sinecure sho lost on getting married. Her cousin, Archduchess Mathilde, who was en. gaged, to King Humbert when he was prince of Savoy, lost her life owing to her fondness for cigarettes. She was forbidden by her father, Archduke Albert, to smoke, but none the less on doifnf so. One summer's day, ttr ni:i.as:;he wasstan ding smoking on the balconv she saw lura enter the courtyard ou which she was looking down. The archduchess, who was wearing a muslin dress, whipped the cigarette out of her mouth and h::I it hehind her back. It came in contact with the muslin, and sho was in a mo ment enveloped in flames, there being a strong draught where she stood. Most of tha Rusuian grand duelr esses arc smokers. Grand Duchess Wlademir thinks n husband and wi:!- who smoke are less likely to fail out than if tho former clone smoked. It L? not l:n:v-.i whether the queen of Italy smokes, bat 1:01110 of her ladies cer tainly do.

As the French say, tho infanta a beau coup d'imagination, and saw in the cigarette or cigar of the . cointesse a pipe which she believed that royal lady smoked m the streets of Seville. Spaa ish ladies are gratuitously credited or discredited with being great smokers. They may do so in Cuba, though they are there more conservative and greater sticklers for the proprieties than at Madrid. The ladies who best patronize tobacconists arc. next to the Kalmucks, the Russians. The ruling passions of Kalmuck women are ribbons to twist round their long tresses, tea, tobacco, and bright handkerchiefs. But if they have to choose between tobacco and tea their option is for the former. When a little Kalmuck comes into the world an event that happens rarely twice in the same menage, the mamma is given a wcli-filled pipe to smoke before she nurses the baby. The little one talwe to smoking before it is weaned. The pipe is the great cure for nervous headache. Fredens borg, where the czar and cahrina sum mer, is the dullest place in the world. The queen of Denmark is exacting of respect for the proprieties. The last charge that anyone could think of bringing against her court is that of fast behavior. Vet most of the young and youngish ladies there are smokers. There is no better way of showing off pretty hands and rings than toying with a cigarette. A court party from Fredensborg one ivening was dining at the Copenhagen Trivoli in the col onnade of the restaurant. There was a large threatrical party, near them; the actresses did not smoke, but the ladies in attendance and those whom they attended did. Some of the fair smokers were Russians, and not n the least inclined to unfurl the flag o" re volt.
