New Workers are accustomed TO feel gay on such
occasion only when they arc given under the

the minds Of the public here. more or less re-
mutply connected with the idea that they must
be French. or, al least, be called French. Local
investigators have discovered that as a matter
of fac. New York has enjoyed a long series Of
so.cuiicd French balls which were. in reality,
given uadcr the direction of Germans. But
there wa. NJ al! events, some urctcncc at a for
cign atmosphere, ana that was not damaged
merely because it happened 10 como out of one
country instead Of another. The ball last week
had none of this character. 1t was wholly

has been denied this feeling
has been deprived of one of

his in Paris who asked him
to secure a very fine horse.
While in Lexington he was
treated most Hospitality.
Although he did not speak
the very best of English, he
found himself getting along
very handsomely with the
.Kentuckians. On the after
noon Of the first day he in
quired of one Of his enter
tainers, "Should | desire to
invite the gentleman to
drink, how should ! say it?''
The enthusiastic Bourbon.
ite replied, "Will you do me
the honor, sir, to drink with
me sir?"
1T is very good" replied
the baron, "but if the gentle
man asked me 20 drink what
should | say2"
"rhe plan here is to slar
him on the back, sir, and say,
1T gives me great pleasure,
sir, to drink with YOU"
1T is very good" replied
the baron, "but if | am sahs'
fed and don't want to drink
any more and wish to decline
an offer to drink, what
should | say2"
"You are fool re.

The New York Journal
addresses these pointer re-
marks to Roosevelt, the
rough rider who rode rough
" into the governors chair
in New York state:
You are elected governor
of the greatest state IN the
greatest union--a high re-
ward for very plucky fight,
ing.
The will of the people
rules. You bowed to the
bosses-that is true, But
the bosses bowed to the
people when they accepted
you.
They-the bosses-hate you
and you know it. We trust
that the hatred may grow
and that your very egotism
and self-assertiveness which
caused us to proclaim your
unftnesS for high executive
duty may at least impel you
to usefulness in the fighting
field.
We expect from you many
errors of Judgment. We an
ticipate absence of true dem
ocratlc feeling in your attl-
tude toward those who differ
With you in opinion.
But we hope for much
good in the direction Of re-
publicar disruption.
You will find yourself in
stalled in a nest of corrup-
ton. Dishonesty you will
be asked to cond0ne or con-
ceal for the sake Of party.
IuCompetency you will be
asked to maintain for policy's
sake.
Each day the bait of a
presidential nomination will
be waved before your eyes.
Governor today, Roose:
velt," will say the bosses
who reluctantly accepted
you: governor today, pres
ident in 1900 if you are true
to ps."
The temptation will be
great. ..
But we have a sort of hope
that you will resist it, Nine
teen hundred will seem a
long way off, and the delight
of skinning Plat will today
beckon you. We hope-per'
haps unreaSonably yor
will yield to the near temp
tation and skin Platt.
If YOU do, the democrats
will forgive much in the way
Of youthful foClishness ant
holier.t .than-t -thouisul.
On behalf Of the ordinary
citizen--whose servant yol
are--.we promise to receiv,
blue.law foolishness Will
much patience if you vii

You are governor, You

A Veteran ON the Situation.

Richmond, April 27.-The preparations for the
war. as they are viewed by the veterans of 1861
"a, seem to excite a good deal of criticism. An
old Howitzer the other night grew reminiscent
and compared the scenes in Richmond today
with those witnessed at the outbreak Of the civil
war, and the comparison was all at the expense OF
modern chivalry When Virginia seeded, said
the veteran, there was never any question raised
as to bringing regiments up to any standard. Old
men, young ones, and boys, were running here
there. and everywhere, anxious only 10 enlist and
to fight possible. In those days. he said.
the rawest Of raw recruits were drilled into shape
in four weeks, and the results did not seem to
Indicate that two months was Necessary to make
them fit for service Nowadays. said the vet

French before he can visit old Camp Lee, for
instead of camping they call il modelling, and
old-time shot and shell are called projectiles.
