 LONDON, Nov. 12.-A private magiste- rial inquiry has been made into the abominable charges affecting the West End Club, whose members are accused of violating the laws of deoency to an extent that would have scandalized Sodom and Gomorrah in their worst days, and the inquest has resulted in the arrest of several boys employed as postal messengers.
 A member of peers and other promi- nent persons are implicated in the bes- tial practices to which the whole club seems to have been addicted.
 The Government intimated to the most prominent of the offenders its de- sire to avoid spreading the scandal If they would exile themselves for a while, and, acting upon the hint. sev- eral of the most ornate of society B leaders are conspicuously absent, and others are preparing for departure. One of the conditions Of the aforesaid ab- sence of these titled and honorable CD gentlemen, is the promise of the Gov ernment to abandon all proceed ings against them.

THE COMING WAR.

 Cilild's Play.

Compared to It Our Civil War Was But
 ChiltPs Play.
 When war comes in Europe, as 1t must come some time, it will be seen that a new ora has begun in the art of destruction. The Belgian historian, Emile de Laveleye, sums lp in an article in tho Forum the terrible factors of the next conflict. The civil war in the United States was but child's play in com mparison. With Russia and France on one side and Germany, Austria and Italy on the other, 1000, ,O00 of men can be instantly The facilities for concentration and the im- proved arms are such that more men may easily be killed in one day than have ever before been killed in a whole war. The continuous preparations for war, even when there is nc thought of its immediate occur renee, are far greater and moro expensive than ever before. France has surrounded her frontier and her capital with contlnu- ous line of forts and entrenchments. Ger many has made Metz, Strasburg, Mayence and Cologne gigantic fortresses, which seem absolutely impregnable. Italy has fortified her Alpine passes, her seaports, and even the Eternal City itself. Belgium is spending forty millions of francs in the construction of redoubts with cupolas of steel, to close the passage by the Maas val ley. The war budgets are everywhere in creasing in enormous proportions. "And it is under this continual menace of the most ,frightful shock of armies that our planet will ever have looked upon," writes M. de Laveleye, ''that we live. And the most ex- traordinary thing is, that we get used to it. We go about our business, our pleasures; |; we rush in crowds from all parts to the Paris exhibition, while each one says: 1t may be for to-morrowP"

The British East African Company Re-
 cruitinS Men to Protect It's Interests.
 LONDON, Nov. 12-'rhe British East African Company must anticipate hav- ing to do some heavy work in order to hold it's territory against the incursions of the Arabs. The latest news from tn at region tndicates that all the native elements are up in arms and are for the moment brethren ip a common cause to drive out the now detested foreign CTS. This serious uprising on the part of the natives is attributed to Captain .Wissmans attempt to increase the sphere of German influence by extermi- hating the people.
 , The East African Company has been picking up all the best available mon to send out to protect its territories from raids by the rebellious natives. Captain Lugard, whose name is we'll known in connection with the Lake Nyassa troubles, and MT. George S. Macke nzie, with 15O men, left for Nom bassa this week.

STARTLING AUDACITI,
Conditions Under Which Bold Young
 Man Accep:cd an Invitation.

Conditions Under Which Bold Young
 Man Accepted an Invitation.
 A y-appointed official but recently come to Washington, says letter to the New York Tribune, regaled some friends, who in a back room at Chamberlin's were discussing a crab supper, with the follow ing story of his first test of Washington hospitality: When at the capital last win ter looking after some business before one of the departments, the wife of member from his State took him to a local fair, given for the benefit of some hospital, where he was fortunate enough to meet most charm ing brace of sisters, residents in the sub urbs, who, with true Southern hospitality, invited him to call. It was impossible for him to go and see them during this visit, but he made it his first pleasure after re- turning to the city, and found the two sis ters so attractive that he prolonged his call much later even than etiquette allows country visit to be. Just as he became con scious of this fact and was thinking of mak- ing c graceful retreat, the mother of the young ladies appeared upon the scene and was introduced to the visitor, whom she sarcastica!ly asked to stay to breakfast, ob- serving that it would not be long before that meal was served-after delivering which thunderbolt she said goodnight and disappeared through door which disclosed a bedroom beyond.
 The new appointee, who was not little annoyed at his own delinquency, was furious at the rcbulle he had received and for a momenS was at loss how to act. When he caught sight, however, of the bed through the half-opened door his decision was made. Quickly bidding the young women good night, he told them he had de- cided to accept their mothers cordial invi- tation to breakfast, and he hoped they would see that he was called in time for the morning meal With this he took possession of the unoccupied bedroom and was soon dreaming of the blue eyes that had been looking into his during the evening.
 Itwas early when little tap was heard on his door and a sweet volce said:
 'It is time to get up, Mir. -; breakfast is nearly ready"
 The mother had not been informed of the acceptance of her invitation, so that there was a surprise at the breakfast table when MT. - sauntered in, but his audacity won the old lady's heart, and now this official is one of the most favorite callers at the - homestead.

A DANGEROUS SCHEME.

Every property owner in Waterbury, who feels that the city's tax rate is already high, should be at the polls bright and early tomorrow to register his vote against the scheme to increase the city's bonded indebtedness by an ad- ditional burden of $35O, ,OOO.
 We have shown to the satisfaction of many, who were firm advocates Of an additional water supply, that the pres ent systsm, under careful and impartial regulations, will answer all the city's needs for years to come,
 And even if there was no question as to the insufficiency of the supply, the manner of proceeding in the matter is open to suspicion. If we are to have an additional water supply let the common council first decide whether we shall look to Hop brook, Lindley brook, Ban tam lake, Hancock brook, Chestnut hill or Quassapaug lake, or whether the Gangwell system shall be used. Decide this question, and then if everything is open and above board the intelligent people of Waterbury, when called to vote upon the question of bonds, can better decide whether or not somebody is try ing to saddle an immense debt upon the city out of selfish motive. As the mat ter now stands we are asked to buy a pig in poke.
 The report of the water commissioners on the several sources of an increased water supply is clearly in favor of Hop brook, against which there was an over whelming mass of adverse testimony when the matter was discussed last win ter. It is alleged that Water Commits sioner Hamilton owns a farm along the line of Hop brook which he expects to dispose of at city prices, and that other purely personal reasons have warped the commissioners report in favor of hop brook. These are things taxpayers should know.
 In regard to the issuing of paving bonds still greater objections are raised. The trouble has been with the sys- tenn of street repairing followed in Waterbury. If instead of giving our roads top dressings of clay and sand at cost of S3O,OO year as has been the custom for decade, we paved or macadam- ized section of road each year, our streets would to-day be in decent condi- tion and there would be no need of bonding the already oserburdened city. The bonded indebtedness of the city and town of Waterbury and tho center school district is about S65O,0OO. Add to this S35O,OOO and Waterbury will enjoy the unique distinction of being $1,O0O, ,00O in debt.
 Taxpayers of Waterbury, do your duty at the polls tomorrow.

ADDED YEARS.

Dr J. D. Pollock recently read a paper befole the Royal Medical society in LCndon in which he points out the immense material benefit that has been brought about within recent years by improved methods of living and by hygienic and sanitary reforms. Taking the tables of mortality in England, he finds that there has Eeen of late an average increase of life of about two years. Of course, if it could be shown that this gain merely allowed men and women already mentally and physically incapacitated by old age to pull out two years of existence, it might ba said that the gain was hardly worth the trouble expended in securing it. In answer to this, Dr Pollock has made a careful analysis of the statistical tables, with the following results: He divides the life Of mankind into three periods; that from birth to 20 years being the period of childish incapacity, that from 20 to 6O the period of human activity and achievement, and from 60 to death the period of dependency, in consequence of failing strength and weakening facul- ties. Under thls division it is found that 70 per cent of the gain in life has come to those between the ages of 20 and 60, ard tb 1t 30 per cent of the gain has come to those either under 20 or over 60 years of age. It will thus be seen that the advantages which improv- ed methods of living have secured to mankind have, in the main, accrued to men and women at the best period of their lives. This being the case, expen- di1ures of time and money which have the effect of materially reducing the rate of mortality must be looked upon, even when considered from strictly economic standpoint, as investments which bring in larger returns to the community than almost any other that can be made.

FOR CITY AUDITOR.

Scarcely any interest is being taken in the election of a city auditor by re- publicans. At last nights convention, which was open to any member of the party, hardly a bakers dozen came to- gether, and the nomination almost went a begging. The hopelessness of a struggle against James J. Cassin, the excellent candidate placed in nomination by the democratic party, is recognized by the republican leaders, and they are not wasting any great amount of powder. A spasmodic effort to get out the party vote will be made, however, and the Every democrat should feel it his duty to work and vote for James J. Cassin.

Try One Before Going to Bed,

When you happen to read in Pennsyl- vania paper the notice of the marriage of Lena Aubergestehemutter and Hein- richs Koontzchleichter, by Rev. Klaas Holz- hauzen. don't be too fresh and think you are reading an account of a German we'd ding. The chances are that the contracting parties and witnesses speak better English than they do in Boston, and that there wasn't soul at the wedding who could speak or understand word of German. These names are heirlooms in some parts of Pennsylvania, and the old families cling to them fondly long after speech and accent have departed. They're mighty good things for the babies to cut their teeth on,
