To THE EDITOR OF TuE SUN-Sir: Some I'M

archy by her yearly Thanksgiving dinner TO the
newscoys. The writer is suspected of being a
society woman. and II her identity is revealed.
social ostracism is TO be her punishment.
1t would DO interesting TO know the logical
processes OF the anonymous writer's mind. DO
the rich hope that by tacitly ignoring the lower
classes they can freeze their restless dissat!sfac-
ton and aspirations; that their acknowledge
ment is a necessary factor in all social growths2
How unconsciously humerousl Or does this
particular thinker fear that the spectacle OF the
Vanderbilt magnihcence will SOW the seeds of
rabid envy and class hatred in the newshoys'
breastsf But then most OF the newsboys have
seen 1t all through the window, and what they
don't know Is not worth any how. l
will venture TO say that with their little stom-
achs full Of the Vanderbilt delicacies they lett
the Vanderbilt mansion several times better
citizens than when they entered IL.
II Is a mOOted question whether charity Is not
productive Of more evil than b2neht, II II is not IN

Gus little newsboys hardly comes under the head

a speech by Col. Alexander 5. Bacon of Brook

the course Of his remarks he Is reported to have
said: IL had the honor lCol. Bacon said this with
the utmost sarcasInl Of being a member of our
Legislature one winter. The honor! Why,
there we're not more than three members Of
that Legislature 1 would invite into my parlor;

OF them could speak decent English"
Having myself had the honor OF serving in the
same Legislature with Col. Bacon, 1 was curious
To know who the other two members were whom
