is the most American thing about the
place.
Drinks in London, as q rule, can be
bought for three pence, or at most four
pence, anywhere else in town. Why the
Americans do all their shopping in one
little section of this huge town heaven
only knows, but English men and women
tell me that the consequences is that
these places keep two sets of prices. The
regular customers pay just one-half
what is charged to those charming in
nocents from our country who make it
habit to announce in every shop that
they are Americans, and that they are
going to lay in an immense stock of
things because everything is so cheap
over here.
We have brought this extortion upon
ourselves. Everywhere we go we seem
to make 1t habit to say: What only
five shillings; why that's only a dollar
and quarter! I'd have to give three
dollars for it in my country"
After the shopkeepers have heard this
outburSt a few thousand times and a
few summers in succession, they have
wit enough to know how to treat Ameri-
cans afterward. 1 think the English a
nation of very honest people, but 1 ex-
clude the shopkeeping class from that

my humble opinion Is that 1t is all bosh

tained for us by other nations. They
love us for what they can get out of us.
Apart from this there is a deep seated
hatred among nearly all of them for us.
The growth of republican ideas means
so much encroachment upon the old
despotisms. There are no new worlds
TO conquer, at least of the material and
earthly quality. A newspaper started
nowadays in a New Hampshire city

SO In this case. There is no new growth
in land area. Some other must suffer.
The parallel of dog eat dog" must apply.
We often hear of the assistance the
French rendered the colonies during the
revolution. This is true. they did; but
not for any love of us, but rather from
hatred of our hereditary foe," our ira
ditional enemy" England. There is a
cause for all things, especially startling
things. The attitude of the French
press on our treatment. or lack of treat
ment of the Cuban Spanish embroglio
shows as a sample how much the ma
tions of the world move ON the axiom of
rule is: do others or they'll do you"
England today stands about as near the
line of friendship for us as any Euro
pean government.
But 1t has become a sort of national
second nature to pick up the cudgel
whenever the name of anything of an
English cast is mentioned. and to hiss
when the Union Jack is floated froIS n
window. But for all that we are bound
to England by stronger and more in
tegral ties of the kind that count" than
to any other nation or class of foreign
ers. The appearance of the Stars and
Stripes in a London theater or other
assemblage of Englishmen, provokes
cheers instead of Kisses or threats. The
two great branches of the Anglo Saxon
race are clasping hands across the At
lantic. and are drawing closer and
closer together every year; an inter-
national board of arbitration will make
war impossible in the future between
the two nations, and the world will real
ize that the Anglo Saxon element,
blood. bone. brain and sinew, is the con-
queror before which all else must yield.
All this sentiment about French, Rus
sian or German love and fraternal af-
lection for America is trash. Eternal
vigilance is the price of liberty; their re-
CARDS are highly esteemed, but they will
not draw the American people into their
schemes. dreibunds, alliances, and en-

publisher, paid him pitiful prices for
his operas. For at least eleven of these
works ne received no more than rs gum

for Alexanders Feast. It must not be

AT CUT RATE FIGURES
One girl who was presented last year
boasted of having passed through the
ordeal at cost of less than $50 She
managedsit by hiring a gown and veil
for $780, borrowing some jewels, pay
ing $40 for carriage and $40 for a boquet
of flowers. 1t is possible to do it for S11o
without hiring or borrowing anything.
A fair gown can be had for SIPS, the
vet, slippers, gloves, etc, for S25 more,
leaving $25 for the carriage and flowers.
This, of course, is shaving matters dan
gerously close.
Usually the parents of girl who is
presented give a reception at their hotel
or home after the drawing room, and
this has grown to be such a fixed GUS
tom that the cost must be reckoned the
same as the price of the court gown.
All of the court gowns have many SIM
liar features. Unmarried young women
must appear in white. The gown must
have a train not less than two yards
in length and must be cut moderately
low in the neck. and the sleeves must
be short. A veil similar to that worn
by a bride must also form a part of the
costume. A boquet of flowers is also q
feature, but aside from these
the young woman can allow her fancy
to run as freely as her pocketbook will
permit. 1t is the Lord Chamberlain

For Women Who Wheel

New York Sartorial Art Journal con-
tains the following interesting remarks
anent bicycle costumes for women
In taking up cycling attire for women
we wish first of all to launch protest
against those abominable modern cy-
cling garments, the boomers.
Don't wear them! Don't make them
Don't have anything to do with them!
for of all the monstrosities of this day
woman with a tightly laced waist
and with limbs encased in baggy bloom
ers is the worst.
Skirts are made nowadays of such
design and length as not to hinder the
free movements of the riders limbs, so
on that score there is no reason for COM
plant. 1t is much better from an ar
tistic point of view, for a woman to
wear knickerbockers than the hideous
bulging boomers, which no woman who
has good taste will wear.
The short skirts of last season would
blow up when the Wearer pedaled fast
or coasted down hill, even though knck-
erbockers and leggings were worn under
meath, which exposed the rider to some
modification. This, however, is done
away with by the increased length worn
today.
Regarding accessories to womens cy-
cling attire there is not much in the way
of novelty to chronicle. The fourteen
button tan kid boots remain very pOpu-
lar, with now and then high lace and q
high French kid boot in evidence.
Some women wear knickerbockers and
golf stockings underneath their skirts,
and some. in hot weather, wear low OK
ford ties, the high lace button boot be-
ing rather warm
Shirt waists ill,of course. be in vogue

new thing for women's use in cycling
furnishings will be the riding stock,
which will be used either with shirt waist
or jacket. 1t will fold twice around the
neck, like mans riding stock though it
will tie in the form of bow instead of
an Ascot. The tie proper in both the
women's and mems articles will be of
a material to match the shirt or shirt
waist In mentioning womens cycling
hats we can only say that there is such
variety of headgear for cycling that it
would be an impossible task to enumer-
ate and describe all of them.
1t is enough to say that the Tam-o-
Shanter and the Tourist form of hats
neatly trimmed, and of color to match
the suits worn, and black straw sailor,
Will be proper and most effective.
Almost any kind of a stout glove goes
well for cycling, although there are va

A Query and AN Answer.

Editor Times: You say in your editorial
dent Congress does wrong to longer delay
action on the Cuban question: Where
is the one precedent for recognition OF
Cuban Independence? On the contrary, do
not all precedents say hands OFF, till
the insurrectionists have demons strated
their ability to maintain a de facto gov
ernment? l believe that you, Mr.. Editor,
are a follower in the political footsteps OF
that distinguished citizen known in his
time as 'Old Hickory" and whose mem-
ory was made fresh and green on the
Sth inst. by Democrats throughout the
country. An examination OF his official
action when he occupied the White House
will show that he refused recognition OF
ipsurrcctiouists in one or two South Amer
lean provinces, even after they had fought
eight years, till they had demonstrated
their ability TO establish and maintain an
Independent government, holding the the
ory that recognition prior thereto would
be a declaration of war against the mother
country. The sober second thought of the
American people, keeping in mind our own
anxiety on the same question some years
ago, will say that 'Od Hickory was
