A new-choregraphic star of first magnitude has risen upon the horizon of London. It is a variable star and dances "La Chabot," which is a kind of modernized cancan, rather-more extravagant than the original. The star's name is Mme. Pompon, and she comes from Paris. Of course she wears a gray silk costume, and no! much of it, with black tights, and a good deal of them. She does not aing her song, but shouts It, kicks straight up and ends the astounding. performance with somersault which nightly delights the good people of the metropolls.
A revised version of the Apocrypha from the same bands that revised the Old and New Testaments will soon come from the university presses of Oxford and Cambridge. This was part of the original plan entered on in 1872 for the revision of the Bible.

In conclusion, we may mention that the Pilot in charge of the Ravenna at the time of the accident was the well-known Japanese, named Kichido (Katana Yoshibel), an experienced and thoroughly capable man, who has been in the Company's service for some fifteen years.

LATE NEWS AND GOSSIP.
The San Francisco Chronicle publishes the following latoresting lems, specially cabled Lem London on November 13th:
The new Duke of Marlborough has promptly di possessed his stepmother, "the Americas Duchess," formerly Mrs. Hammersly of New York, from all the Marlborough manalons and estates. This unpleasant piece of information reached the friends of the dowager Duchess here early to-day. There was little surprise over the news. The heirs to English estates have dlangreeable habit of taking ruthless possession of mansions and property. Sympathy and mourning play only a small part in these matters. In this respect Mrs. Hammersly fared as badly as Mrs. Blair, now the widow of the late Duke of Sutherland. The remains of Sutherland bad been in the grave only about forty-eight hours when "Mrs. Bair" received notice that the house she was occupying was needed by the legal heir to the estate. She maved, but under protest.
