The baccarat scandal and long array Of
other scandals preceding it place the upper
class Of England on trial before civilization.
Not Sir Gordon Cumming alOne, but his set
the Prince Of Wales, heir OF England" and Of
AL the royal houses Of Britain from Cerdic to
Hanover-are the real accused. The mon
arehy Of Great Britain and the social and po-
litical institutions with which it is interlinked
are not capable Of standing an indefinite strain,
for they rest on the respect of the people of
England. II that respect we're withdrawn for
a single moment the whole costly structure
that has taken perhaps fifteen hundred years
TO become what it is would crumble and leave
behind it only that which is useful to the
everyday Life of the people. 1t was the re-
mark of Gnizot truth of history. that no
element of the English political life had ever
been lost Applying that profound observa-
ton to the present state Of British upper-class
morals it could be foretold wisely that revo-
linton in English government due to the ex-
travagance and prohgacy of the royal line and
the nobility would not uproot all established
institutions, as was the case in the French
revolution but would modify them us they
were modified by the English revolutions of
the 18th century.

II may always be in dispute whether athletics
conduce to scholarship. but Ysle's graduating
class would seem, so far as one swallow can
make a summer. to settle the question affirma-
lively. The honors were carried off by the
same men, the highest athletes having been
the hardest students and most intellectual men.
Other institutions and conditions may produce
different results Evidently. what is wanting
in college and all sedentary life is sufficient
physical exercise to make a counter balance for
the necessary mental exercise, and the greater
the strain on the mind the greater the obvious
necessity for healthful physical development.
A happy correlation Of the two sorts Of exer-
else is important.

The orator, the subject and the occasion met

The state of Maryland erects today at the
ancient town Of st. Mary's. the germ of the
colony and commonwealth, a modest monu-
ment to Leonard Calvert, its first governor.
Few states have had such noble beginning-not
in the glare of the stage foot-lights amid the
CHATTER of an audience delighting in impressive
scenes, but soberly, religiously as beseemed q
serious people sprung from the bosom of
English liberty. Among the founders of
America George, Cecilius and Leonard Calvert
are ever to be named as worthy of special honor
and esteem-the first that he prepared the way,
the second that be sent out the hopeful colony,
the third that he governed it wisely and with
his own hand planted the tree of liberation
IN the soil Of America A singular fact in the
history Of tho country's settlement is this-that
jamestown, Plymouth and st. Mary's, the first
towns founded, respectively, IN the first three
British colonies never attained any considerable
growth or, after the very beginning, import
ance. Maryland the second southern and
third Of all the English colonies formed. From
the small community at st. Mary's on the lower
Potomac, 1884, II has without the advantage Of
a wide territory developed into a noble COM
monvealth with large cities, well developed
farms and prosperous industries.

The German Kaiser is an avowed friend of the
code duello. He has been challenged by New
Jersey music teacher who was once an officer
in the German army. This challenger is so
considerate as to afhx a condition If William
shall have Prince Bismarck executed before the
duel the latter need not occur. 1t is suggested
that this is a good way for the imperial auto
crat to avoid the Inconvenience of a duel with
an American sovereign, crafty his private re-
sentiment and effect a stroke of state policy all
at one time. Will the man who says that he is
''master and no one else" in Germany behead
