The state convention of the W. G. I.

honors to Blackfoot delegates and mem

It seems to THE NEWS that the
Union might provide for regular lit

some that the public would appreciate
and enjoy, and some that would always
attract good attendance. The Union
can reasonably expect TO count on the

no abusive words have been uttered by
gentlemen OF one party against those

a Result of Princess Chimay's Amour

Elwyn a. Barron's London Letter.
1t would hardly have been believed that
the gross amour CI the Princess Chimav
for the mean little Tsigane should have
created u demand for gypsy advertisement,
immoral and otherwise. This seems. new
ertheleSS 10 be the result of that escaDade
to use a euphemistic term. which has a his
torical precedent in the passion of Scottish
Mary for the miserable RizZio. The most
agreeable product of this latest form OF
neurotc disturbance to which may be CIV
en- the name gypsymania. is the very
charming and unique ballet entertainment
at the Alhambra, which is styled The
Tsigane." and which for its art. grace,
poetry and music. enjoys deserved popu-
larity as one of the best of the Alhambra
ballets But both here and in Paris there
has arisen suddenly an army of Tsgane
musicians, sham and genuine who thrive
upon the passing interest awakened in this
brand of gypsy by the RIGHTEOUSNESS of a
princess without taste in her vices. The
troupe that during the WORLDS fair period
was content to be known as a hungarian
band now adds to its Importance and prof
its by prociaiming itself Tsigane; and
wherever a swarthy face can be set off with
a picturesque headgear and a guitar a
Tsigane musician Is set up. Thus far no
lady of title has shown herself audacious
enough to emulate in all its Incidents the
example of the Chimay. but 1 have been
informed that a noble house but little off
Park lane will open its season with the
strain of a Tsigane band. Nine. Roland's
apostrophe To Liberty might be paraphrased
by the social philosopher with Nobility
axiom that the King could do no evil so il
is the modern theory that the smart set
can commit no immortality. and the limits
of ones desires are set down the only
boundaries of conduct. The law has an i'll
bred sort of way of attempting TO NEEDLE
once i'm a while: but that is only when the
pursuer of strange pleasures goes about
with a bell and a town crier Your will
bray occasionally and he must be cudgeled.
Noblesse oblige seems 10 be interpreted to
mean that the noble are Obliged TO cut up.
and we have nice instance of the theory
in a novel. a Bit Of a Fool just put be-
fore the public by Sir Robert Peel. more
impudent parade of imbecile vulgarity on
