LONDON, Aug. H.-The epidemic in the

spend the other part in a paroxysm Of
silly indulgence. Their pendulum
swings between the bOurse and the
boulevards. When their faculties are
not concentrated on the iniquity Of
gambling, they are expending them
selves on the iniquity of sensuality.
They keep alive with their patronage
all the disreputabIe shows; they make
Col. Bob Ingersoll's Sunday night as
saults on the affairs and homes by fetes
of hilarious applause; they turn the
cafes into scenes of violence where they
knock out the servants eyes and pay
grandiloauently for damaged furniture.
They built palatial clubs and run in
debt for wines. They sometimes mar
ry into good family and bring with
them perils to the race and lay their
cancerous kisses on the cheek of inno-
cence.
So unerringly does the pursuit Of
money, for which no equivalent is
given, break down all the finer fbers
of the man, that in time this type of
good fellow, if he arrives at his ideal,
will be proud Of the power which can
spread ruin and agony through mil
lion homes without awakening any
compunction on his part. He has then
arrived at the absolute tyrrany of self
Shness.
He will sit in his Office and plan dis
aster with grim satisfaction. He can
make million by breaking ten thou
sand hearts. Presto, it is done. Then
he gets new mistress.
You will see these heartless fellows in
Delmonico's or the Windsor hotel,
every night, when they are not on the
Casino stage or in the dressing rooms
at Roster Il Balls. An atmosphere of
atrocious and cynical bonhomie sur
rounds them. Their audacious impu-
dence is drowned in wine. Their ag-
gressive impertinence wears fringe
of reckless liberality. They boast of
their degradation like college boys.
They swear by their insensibility like
medical students; they make obscenity
jocund; the aim of their manners is to
defy decency; the end of their inter
course is audacity.
Wrecked examples from this coterie
ripen into criminal eminence regular
ly. 1t is only little while ago that
one of these young gentlemen wrecked
hundred innocent homes, betrayed
the confidence of his trusting friends,
disgraced his name, broke an honored
fathers heart and slouched out of pub
lie view. What was the comment of
his admiring congeners? That he had
a good time while it lasted. That he
wasn't smart enough to keep it up.
The moral aspect of it never for one
moment presented itself to one of
them. And all of them say clearly

MARRIED FIFTY YEARS
Tho Grand Duke and Duchess Of
Mecklenburg-Streiitz
Semi Centennial of Their Marriage OBJ
served Unostentatiously and Quietly
Ono of the Most Popular of
Germany's Princes.

The climate of Germany seems to be
conducive to long life on the part of
it's rulers. The celebration of the
dftieth anniversary of succession to
the throne has been commemorated in
several petty states of the fatherland
within the last few years. Among the
heads of the various Kingdoms, duchies
and principalities making up the great
empire there are few men who have
succeeded to their thrones in compare
lively recent times, and in point of age
approach the German emperor. But
the majority Of the rulers of the more
powerful states are men of advanced
age and experience. The duke of
Saxe-Coburg Gotha, brother of the la
mented prince consort of Queen Vic
toria, is beyond the Biblical limit by
several years. The grand duke of
Saxe-Weimar, who lives in the beauti-
full town made famous by Goethe,
Schiller, Herder, Wieland and List,
has reigned more than fifty years, and
has celebrated the fiftieth anniversary
of his marriage. The prince regent of
Bavaria has also lived more than three
score years and ten. The king of Sax
ony is ''white-haired and seventy"
and the grand duke of Baden and the
duke of Meiningen are men approach
ing the time when they Will be called
old. The prince of Lippe-Detmold died
only few weeks ago, at the age of
seventy-seven.
But none of the petty German SOW
ereigns who took part with Emperor
William l., his great chancellor and
his immortal field marshal in the
recreation of the German empire is
more popular than Grand Duke
Frederick William of Mecklenburg-
Strelitz. Only a few days ago he cele-
brated the semi-centennial anniversary
of his marriage to Grand Duchess
Augusta, his cousin, who was born
princess of Great Britain. Great
preparations had been made by the
grand dukes subjects to commemorate
the day, but he wished to spare his
people all monetary sacrifices and hu--
ried away to London. The grand

Are YOU not a little tired of hear
ing the fippant reconteurs of the
press talk about the dangerous ele-
ments to society? What do they
know of the dangerous elements
of society? Where do they look for
them? Always in the back streets.
1t appears to be the proper thing to
have a well-bred shudder at the pow
erty and ignorance of the '1ower
classes
But the tendency of the CLOVER
classes" is upward. How about the
upper classes?" Where do they tend?
And by upper classes I simply mean in
this view the idle, the voluptuous and
the utterly selfish classes who insist
upon being the upper.
There is conventional notion that
the young street ruffian who inhabits
the tenement districts, who joins
gang, who gets into politics, who de-
fies law, is the greatest curse of our
metropolitan life. There could not
possibly be greater mistake. At the
very worst he is defiant enemy against
whom all the repressive enginery OF
society is operative. More than that,
he is only manifestation of phase,
not of a fixed condition. In ninety
nine out of hundred cases the
conservative energies of life lay hold
of him somewhere and suppress and
reconstruct him. He finds girl that
he marries; he is astonished at finding
himself a father; he goes to work if it
is only tending bar" but it is not for
himself; he gets hold of a home, and
then law and order have got hold of
him.
have found that these fellows are
superstitious; intensely loyal and
wholly unimaginative; their crimes
spring from their impulses not from
their reason.
Against that type of young man
wish to plant another. One starts as
ruffian without sensibilities.
The other is voluptuous rascal.
One has his roots in the reeking soil,
where, after all, there is some nourish-
ment. The other has his head in the
poisonous air where there is no hope.
One fights, steals if he is hungry or
thirsty, browns with alcohol the cares
he cannot master; throws himself
against the established order with all

OF the first rulers sons to be enrolled at
German university, and his advent at
the old institution was discussed far
and wide. His example has been fol-
lowed by hundreds of princes since
that time. and to-day it is as much a
matter OF course that the scion of a
ruling house spend several years at a
university as it formerly was that he
