THE BRITISH CELEBRATION.

a Free Invitation Ball, But the In
viiation List Will be scrutinized.
Mr.. Give Davies presided, with
Messrs. Auerbach and Gilbert as
Secretaries, over last evenings meet
ing of the Executive Committee of
the Victoria Diamond Jubilee cele-
bration at which some twenty mem
bers were present.
1t was deemed advisable in view
OF the fact that donations we're not
coming in to the extent anticipated,
that subcommittee should so ar
range matters that the cost OF the
celebration should not exceed the
$500 guaranteed by tho meeting
OF British residents.
Mr.. t. Wright, chairman of the
Sports Committee, presented the
program of sports, including aqua
tics, which he felt sure, could be-
readily carried out at cost Of $500.
He believed that the ladies, il re-
quested, would arrange to donate
and attend to the provisions for the
children, They we're famed for
their kindly hospitality and would
be glad to embrace this opportun-
ity, The suggestion was received
with applause and was taken as &C
copied.
The one horse race was easily
knocked out of the program by a
formidable opposition led by Mr..
Robert Swan Scrmgeour and appar-
emily representing the sense of the
community and some strong under
current of substantial reasons.
Mr.. j. S. Walker on behalf the
Ball Committee reported that the
expenses had been estimated at
5000, the principal items being re-
freshments 1915, rent of Independ-
ence Hall $50, and decorations $50.
After some discussion the commit
tee was authorized to go ahead on
that basis and reduce the cost if
they could.
After some amusing references to
alien freebooters' raids on former
occasions, when free Inequalities
we're extended, and the hosts
and entertainers were left food.
less and drinkless while the
invading army raided the flesh
pots and wineskins it was sug-
gested, rather emphatically, that
the intelligence of the invitation
committee married to the contribut-
ing list OF the Finance Committee
would prevent recurrence of such
a calamity, or in other words that
contributors would have prefer
ence in invitations. Mr.. T. Wright OF
the Sports Committee read letter
from A. M. Mellis, with sample OF
Jubilee badge and asking the en-
dorsement of it as the official badge
After discussion it was decided to
thank Mr.. Mellis but to decline any
responsibility in connection with the
badge, which must be regarded as a
commercial speculation. Adjourned
to call of the chair.

LAST OF THE INDIAN SOLDIERS.

The last of the Indian companies
mustered into the service of the United
States has been disbanded. 1t was in
Oklahoma at the time of the disband-
ment. Speaking of the event. the Kan
sas City Star says:
The last of the Indian companies in
the United States army has been dis
banded, the men viii be employed here
after only as scouts, and this ends
the experiment of making, or attempt
ing to make, a regular soldier of the
American Indian. Many Indians have
served, first and last, the government
Of the United States, but what has been
given up is the attempt to use them
as regularly drilled and disciplined SOL
diers.
The Indian. as judged by the stand
ards of civilized men, is a wild man.
There is a story that the chief, Tecum-
sch, at an interview with General Har-
rison, was asked to seat himself ~
chair, and answered: THE earth is
my mother; on her bosom will re-
pose" and flung himself upon the
ground. This story, whether true or
only one of many poetic fictions in
vented about Indians, finally illustrates
the nature of the Indian. He has no
use for what the civilized man consid-
ers common comforts and necessities.

THE HELMET OF LEEDY.

Governor Leedy of Kansas has
brought himself into great prominence
through a rather emphatic declaration
in favor of the tin washbasin as against
the fixed marble washbowl. In his own
home where he is lord and master, in
his home where he smokes the pipe OF
peace with himself, this is all right, for
every mans house is his castle in Kan
sas, or his cyclone cellar but Governor
Leedy would introduce the washbasin
into the very capitol of the state fam
Gus for its corn and cranks.
He did not like the marble basin.
with its silver washed trappings, in the
governors room in the capitol To him
it was a symbol of wealth and greed.
the very embodiment of all that was
anti-Populist. Day after day. week af-
ter week. he gazed at it, until it be-
came a nightmare to him. 1t haunted
him like the memory of Stark haunted
old Bill Bones. He stood it as long as
he could. Then he ordered it removed
by his secretary. Buy a tin wash
basin for me-" he exclaimed. Il was
raised on that. and am not afraid of
being drowned when I use it,"
From this remark one is justified in
concluding that Governor Leedy was
not raised on washbasins. but that he
just growed: There is nothing to be
ashamed of about a washbasin (but
for some unaccountable reason all boys
have a great dread Of them) yet there
is no particular merit in having been
raised" on them. 1t by no means
makes it certain that those so raised
have had cleaner hands and faces in
their youth than others, or that they
have thereby become better qualified
to perform the part of statesmen. They
are useful but not ornamental things
Stay: they may even be ornamental,
for wnat was the helmet of Mambrino
but a BARRIERS basin? At least it so
appeared to the eye of those who were
under the spell of enchantment. That
helmet or BARRIERS basin, whichever it
may be called, would be, could one but
possess himself of it, worth all the
marble washbowls, with their silver
washed trimmings, in the world. 1t
may be that this very basin is the one
that Governor Leedy called for sighed
for as Alexander sighed for more
worlds to conquer
But what disgusting performance
for the governor of state. 1t doesn't
show any simplicity Of tastes, any close
contact with the people; it merely
shows vulgarity, the vulgarity consist
ing in the ostentation of the display.
Perhaps Leedy hopes to substitute the
washbasin for the log cabin in Amer
lean politics. 1t can never be done.
