Mr.. Gladstone has become deeply interested
| in Andrew CarneRie's ideas concerning the
duties of wealth, as set forth in recent article
In the North american Repieto. Mr.. Gladstone o. in
letter to the Pal Mall Gazette says he agrees
affirms and recommends and his (Gladstone's)
main reservation 10 prompted by CarneRie's
language respecting the Endowment of Stan
ford University. Glandstone says he has some
doubts as to whether large endowments Of
places of learning do not raise the market
price OF the higher education, which they aim
at lowering. 81 must add" he says, that the
growing tendency to the dissociation OF univer-
sities as such from religion does not abate but
enhances the force OF all such considerations
as have suggested my language Of reserve"
Mr.. Gladstone concludes:

and desirable objects for the dedication Of
funds, we are not to include their direct dedi-

Mr.. Stead's new Rerieto Of Rerie,os will be
issued on next Wednesday, an edition OF $4,000
being under way. He allowed me to see the
proofsheets to-day. The new periodical Is
what its name implies. The articles in the
first issue are simply reviews OF other maga-
zine articles. with Stead's opinions thereon.

has just managed to get himself into the police
court under the auspices Of Manager Kelly OF
the Princess's Theatre. On the last Saturday
of November the melodrama called Tho
Gold Craze" by Brandon Thomas. author OF
several successful comedies. was brought
out at tho Princesss. The play was
bad. 1t must be admitted. but the audi
ence at the time were much puzzled
to account fore the apparent virulence OF the
men who hssed 1t. since Thomas is very pop
ular. Pandemonium reigned during a great
part Of the performance insomuch that it was
often impossible to hear the voices OF the
actors. The villain Of " The Gold Craze" who |
commits two or three crimes in each act. was
named Marquis de Fleurville. and was gotten
up In imitation Of De Leuvile 1t now appears
that De Leuville got wind OF this impersona-
tion and hired a gang OF men for two nights |
to go in and attempt to break up |
the performance. At least SO q man who |
alleges that De Leuville hired him to organize |
the gang has sworn In the police court. He |
says De Leuville paid for tickets for about |
twenty men and gave him money to buy them
drinks atterward. Kelly has charged De
Leuville with instigatlnE. melting and pro-
,uring riot, and II he is convicted no may
be imprisoned. It;ame out in tho course OF
tho examination that De Leuville had hired
he same body of men to applaud some dog
zerel OF his that was produced at tho Empire.
Do Leuville, by the way, has outgrown the
suspicion he lived under In New York. that he
wore stays. He Is now much larger about the
abdomen than the chest, and he affects lock
