OF them could cuss the hump right of

"Ah, here is something new" cried
Spartacus. Here is point In the
game which have never seen before.
Behold the gladiator in the blue coat.

collar and beats him upon the head
with his club. Can you hear what he
says, Barabbas?"
''Indistinctly," rejoinod the robber

victims, In my day that would have
been called a low dowu'hick. See the
old man with the white halr, lie at

He Is too feeble, by all the gods, a
bold effort hut Il is vain. Two char
lots he escaped, but the third has rid

save his life, Barabbas,"

they drag him out Of the press And the
blue gladiator, with the club, hauls
down the charioteer from his perch.
Why Is that done, spartacus?"

We are constantly hearing about
New York society ladies' The papers
never tire Of telling where they go and
what they wear. Their names and
characteristics are well known TO any
one who reads the society notes" in
the daily papers, and one hears the
commonest kind Of people calling these
great society leaders Familiarity by their
first names
In view of this fact It is surprising
that we hear so little Of the German
ladies who are among our wealthiest
and most influential people, This is
