1 BRILLIANT EVENT
WAS THE ENTERTAINMENT OF THE DIAMOND WHIST
 PLAYERS.
At Hotel Trulock yesterday. The Guests Royalty Entertained
 By the Members.

On account of the importance of fhel event, the GRAPHIe will today violate it's usual custom in chronicl- ing a social entertainment outside 0f it's regular Sunday Society Column We feel that on this oc- easion public interest is so great that our readers would brook with manifest impaticnce delay of an account of this entertainment until Sunday.
 With this apology we begin by re- marking that the entertainment of rhe Diamond Whist Players at Hotel Truloek Tues lay afternoon from } to o'clock, was the most brilliant and elaborate social function ever known in the history Of Pine Bluff social circles. For more than a week nil of society had been thoroughly agog in anticipation of the pleasures Of the event, and now that it has passed, none who were fortunate enough to be present ex- lerie..te a;F4 t. he bangs of regret or disappointment.
 For this occasion nearly 150invita- tions were issued and over & of the invited guests responded with their presence. From early in the after moon carriages began to arrive at She Trulock and deposit their precious freight at the side entrance, and by o'clock West Court Square Was q solid blockade of fine neearriages and other four-wheeled vehicles.
 As the guests arrived they were ushered into the parlors on the second floor, where they were cor dally and hospitably received by the members of the club of Diamond Whist Players
 The hotel parlnrs were most hand Ronely and artisticalIy decorated for the occasion, and were perfect bower uf l0veliness.
 Many of the guests were attired.in evening dress, whose beautiful cos tunes under the brilliant glare of electric lights made Il scene of rare brillianey and splendor.
 Wards composed the chief diversion o the entertainment. In one ot the paflofs game of euchre was in pro- gress, while the more expert card players indulged in the fascinating game of whist in an adjoining room. third parlor was reserved for those " ho "ean't count the cards, and here all was made merry by brilliant social converse and sharp repartee.
 The prizes at teard playing were wpa as follows;
 Euchre-lst prize, Mrs. c. A. Bloom; 2nd prize, Mrs. Jake Katzen- stein.
 Whist-1st prize, Miss Fay Taylor; End prize, Mrs. ]. T. Bradford.

FRANCE "RIORA

The Messenger months since gave
some statistics showing a decline in the
births in France, and the actual de-
crease in growth. Since 1891, the in
crease has been but 1902. France has
not had for twenty-six years a war of
any great Importance. The decline can
not be we'll attributed to losses in that
way. The French people remain at
home more than n European nation.
The tendency is like it has been re-
ported often as to New England-few-
er marriages and smaller families. Hep
worth Dixon thirty years ago or more,
in his able work, New America we
think he called it, pointed out that in
New England birth-bearing was much
on the decrease even then in that Sec
ton. The foreign element in France
has decreased, and this is regarded as
favorable. 1t is a beautiful land, great
ly favored of God, and has great re-
sources and capabilities. 1t is a flower
garden, and the people are both ingeni-
Gus and Industrious. With peace and
good government france ought to
prosper ought to blossom as the
rose." The Baltimore Herald thought
fully says:
The country of itself is favored as
to soil and climate, and is capable of
sustaining a much larger population
prOpOrtiOnately than England, Ger
many, the Scandinavian kingdoms or
almost any other European division.
| Tho ctr11Oo1a for axicfonco in E>ronoo ;c
fraught with fewer difficulties, and yet
these conditions are productive of re-
suits exactly the reverse Of what might
be expected.
I'm the face Of the virtual decline in
| population, it may be asked whether
civilization is not, after all, a failure.
At any rate, there is an apparent pos
sibility of carrying it too far. A par
tial relief from burdens begets 2 desire
to get rid of them altogether.
"Sordid materialism has seized upon
all classes in France, inducing them to
| sti1e sentiment and to regulate every
thing, down to the closest affairs of the
heart, be statute, by precedent and by
calculating reason. Young men are
taught not to marry until they have at
tanned a certain position"
There is indeed food for thought
in that statement. God defend North
Carolina from becoming progressive
in that way! Materialism is the bane
Of any countryside curse Of any peo-
pie. In the rich north corrupt legis-
latures, buying voters, debauching the
ballot, b%ulldozing the working classes
are as common as sunshine or water.
In a little over one hundred years this
country has become so rotten it is al
ready honey-combed and decay has
set in. If 1T declines in the next eighty
years as it has in the last twenty-five
it will be more absolutely corrupt than
Rome was in it's decline and fall for
particulars of which read the greatest
