this Office seek him by remaining in

Mr.. Burton was in good humor this
morning. He felt first rate and showed
it In manner and speech. He was on
his way to Manhattan, where the Fifth

George W. Smalley, the noted foreign
correspondent, recently spoke under
the auspices of the Phi Beta Kappa so
cicty at Yale on the subject, Social
Life in England" The lecture was de-
livered at New Haven for the first time,
and was very instructive of the charac.
teristics OF society life IN England. Mr.,
Smauey was introduced by Prof. I'd
ward J. Phelps, of Yale, ex-minister 70
England. Mr.. Smalley admitted in his
predatory remarks that there was much
paltry and ignoble in London society.
but he confined his description 10 the
bright side of English social rife. Mr..
Smalley declared that not wealth, fame,
honor, nor even rank alone, gave pO-
sition IN English society. and stated
that many of the titled personages OF
the realm were outside the gates Of
what Is known as society. he said THAI
position in society in England was OBJ
tanned and held only By a com bination
OF leading traits of mind and character.
Mr. SmaIley interpreted Ais talk with
vast number OF pertinent anecdotes
illustrating the different phases Of Lon
don society life. He spoke IF the mani

declared that Mr.. Gladstone was tbs
