able o. toll when The time for SHINING had
arrived. The sins oi the world have
usually been so inopportunclv committed
as o. AFFORD mo- material for the scientific
study Of wickcdnCss. q region In which
Mr.. Wilde would become the pioneer
This explains, in MIR. Wudc's opinion,
That strange attraction eNCrtcd hV sin
and sinners upon even the virtuous ia all
ages. How interesting is the handsome
rascal who has broken scores OF hearts
and wrecked the happiness of those who
unscicutilically stopped to folly What
wealth of material for Investigation has
thus run TO waste Society has long re
volted against this conventional injustice
TO sin, but no one has yet had the courage
to champion the cause Upon Mr. Wilde
has il devolved TO become the parent of
the science of sin in much the fashion
that Adam Smith is now the father of the
science of political economy
Whether the suufower is to be retained
as the cross of the new crusade seems yet
unknown. Emile ZOla's suggestion of a
pair of horns has not been noticed.
The opponents Of the new science are
declaring that there is nothing new in
Mr., Wilde's latest idea. Paul Bourget
mades one of his heroes student of sin
and leads him through a series of eXper-
fence, Gin which a susceptible and mex
perienced young lady fgures) that were
meant to be students of the precise ma
ture that Oscar Wilde will advocate
Unfortunately the hero of Bourgeois book
never gave his knowledge to the world,
for the herOine's brother shot and killed
him in the last chapter. Those whose in
vestigatiOn led them in the same direction
may be deferred by the possibility of a
similar fate, unless indeed their devotion
to this form of science is so great that

pursuit of it.
THE OTHER EMINENTs.
Mr.. Wilde, however is not the only
theorist who will shortly land upon our
coast. The arrival of Joseph Cham ber-
lain with his American wife, is designed
to have quickening effect upon all move
ments looking to the unificatiOn of the
Anglo-SaXon race. Mr. Chamb erlain is
contemplating a public utterance that
will place his opposition to home rule for
Ireland in an entirely new light He
means to come out in favor of parlia-
mentary union of all English speaking
peoples. According to this theory the
home rule bill is a direct blow at this
scheme, apart from any considerations of
its political inexpediency. Mr. Chamber
lain will point to the Boring Sea arbitra-
ton as one indication of the Anglo-Saxon
unificatiOn to come. He believes that no
written constitution will be necessary to
bring all this to pass and that in much
less time than most men now anticipate.
England, the United States, Australia
republic. Mr.. Chamberlain, proposes to
rmain six weeks in the United States.
Goodwin Smith comes to us from across
the Canadian border on an errand of
much the same nature as does Joseph
Chamberlain. He will work actively for
the annexation Of the dominion to the
United States. Mr.. Goodwin Smith
means to make this propaganda his life
work and believes that he will live to see
Canada a state of the American union.
The theorist has a wealthy wife and no
end of brains and is eager to make his
name even more eminent than it now is.
Archbishop Walsh, of Dublin, is the
prelate who has made so much stir as a
politician in Ireland. He has long wished
to visit our country aud although the os-
tensible object of his tour Is recreation,
there are vague reports of a Vatican mis-
sion concerning which Satolli could say
something il he would. Tho archbishop
will not go back to Ireland until Decem-
Der.
DIR. Franz Won Rottenburg will bring
his wife to America in a few weeks, prob
ably, that she may visit her father, Will
liam Walter Phelps. Emilio CASTELAR,
Will voyage from Dpdln LOT ms u6ulLn anu
may not be here until next year. Lord
Randolph Churchill had intended to come
as the guest of William Waldorf Astor,
but the latter abandoned his proposed
worlds fair visit and the noble lord will
come with his wife-when is uncertain
Emile lola has given up his trip to this
country for the present, but Clemenceau,
the politician-duellist, and a Frenchman
almost as well known as the novelist,
will be here by November. AS is known,
Madame Clemenceau lives in this cOun-
try, having separated from her husband
in consequence of his unplatonic interest
in the female sex generally His defeat
for the chamber of deputies having had
SOLDERING effect upon this gay Lothario,
it may be that the state of Indiana,
wherein Madam Clemenceau now lives
with her little son, is to become the centre
of a readable item of news this autumn.
The present trend of travel is striking
contrast to the state of things sixty
years ago and less. Then the flower
of American manhood voyaged to Europe.
Now the cream of the old worlds hu-
manity visits our shores, and seems to
find the trip paying one.
