have long appreciated this fact. Last
summer there was a coasting contest
near New York, and among the con-
testants were two men of exactly the
same weight. One rode wheel which
would oscillate for four minutes when
it was free of the floor, and the other
bicycle, no matter how hard It was
sprung, would come to a standstill in
half that time. In the contest the lat
ter virtually ran away from its oppo-
nent. A perfectly adjusted wheel with
out tire or valve hole does not oscil
late at all Place a tire on the same
wheel and it will swing backward and
forward for some time. The gyroscope,
top, which is so perfectly balanced
that it will spin at any angle, does not
oscillate after it has expended its force.
Ifea small shot be soldered on the edge
of the rim of the same top it will swing
until that part of the top is at the bot
tom, but at the same time will not spin

before he could regulate the perquisites
of directors in accordance with fixed
principles of social precedence and in
troduce a tariff with maximum and
minimum fees for introductions TO peo-
pie of quality, The bubble was pricked
before the full purchasing power of
the stock promoters money was
brought to bear upon smart society.
Yet this traffic carried Mr.. Hooley
long way into the social world. It
produced for him the acquaintance of
many people of distinction; it enabled
aim to enter the Carlton club. and to
stake out a claim for a seat in parlia-
ment, and it put him in direct negotia-
tions with the political managers for
the purchase of a baronetcy for about
S250.000 in hard cash.

SOCIAL CENSOR.
Credentials of Applicants for Pres
entatiOn at Court Closely
Examined.

The necessity for censorship over the
social credentials of applicants for
presentation at Queen Victoria's court
is apparent when the air is heavy with
moralizing over Hooleyism, says an
eastern exchange. Lord Charles Beres-
ford startled London audience year
ago by declaring that money could
buy its way into the highest places in
England. He merely anticipated the
records of the bankruptcy courts Mr..
Hooley did not succeed in establishing
company promoting on a permanent
social basis. The bottom fell out of his
enterprises before he had perfected
his system of batting small investors
with the names of earls and the leaders
of smart society. He was imposed up
