one of the most comfortably self-satis,

AilUunv,
The members of this smart set well
come new people without hesitation,
always providing that the newcomers
are rich, up-to-date, and have the neces-
sary tact and savoir faire to adopt the
shibboleths OF. the set. The genuine
old New Yorker is, however, very con-
seryative, and the opinions of the afore-
said set trouble her but little, for her
position, she feels, is founded on rock,
and though storms may beat and waves
break against the structure, it is, she
believes, as secure as anything can be
IN this mortal life. She is also apt to
be very independent, and If her income
is small has no fear of public opinion
in carrying out her economies. She will
take a bus" or car for a dinner or a ball
with as great a sense of dignity as if
she were stepping into her carriage at

conflict at Tours. in which Charles
Martel overthrow the Saracens, A. D.

state Neither Mr. Hornblower nor Mr Pecl1ham is concerned in this sem sational probability, but the president, it transpires, has been talking with some of the justices, and knows exactly who will retire md when. 1t came out in the course of the discus sion that an odd accident had been re- sponsible for the delay in the famed income tax decision. The justices ex- ercised great caution in preventing any surreptitious information finding it's way in advance to the public. Chief Justice Fuller kept his manuscript un- der lock and key for days, but when he looked it up for consultation with his fellow justices 1t was illegible on ac- count of the ink, which had been spilled over it. For time the judges actually feared there was another Teak" but Chief Justice Fuller went to work with his pen all over again and soon recovered lost time. The theory of the court was that mice had overturned the ink-weu upon the legal lore, or that some vagrant insect had duttered over the immortal words with daubed antennae. Mice or bug, the creature added materially to the public suspense.

 This is an unusual neighborhood for a premier to be found in, isn't it?" qneried Mir. Belmont.
 Whatever may have been replied to this does not appear, but that night the three gentlemen met again by queer coincidence in the dining hour outside the odd eating place established on the parliamentary terrace. Lieut.. Cowles, U. s. N., an attache of the em- bassy, was talking with the premier.
 ''Good evening, Mr. Belmont" re- marked Rosebery; T will wager I can tell what you said to his lordship about me this morning when rode by in that hacl1?n
 MT. Belmont was astonished, not having supposed the premier had seen them, but he took up the wager and the money was posted.
 You said," declared Rosebery, tri- umphantly, that Whitechapel was the proper place for a premier to visit, because he should be as much at home among the poor as he is among the rich"
