A dispatch from Berlin announces the
death of Baron William Won Rothschild,
head of the banking house of that name.
This probably means head of the Roth
schild house at Berlin, which is branch of
the London house. The head of the latter
is Lord Nathaniel De Mayer Rothschild,
man of enormous wealth and a great art
collector, as are his nephews Baron Alfred
and Baron Ferdinand De Rothschild, both
of whom hold high political offices in Eng
land. However, the name of Rothschild is
so we'll know all over Europe that the
death of one of the heads of the house is
almost as important an event as the death
OF a monarch

One OF the longtime leaders in the move
rent to extinguish the liquor traffic is re-
Torted as saying that he is opposed TO
further legislation relative to saloons until
the laws on the statute books are enforced
That is a wise conclusion. because it IS
based upon experience. No matter how
stringent the laws for the protection OF
society. they are a dead letter unless an
active public sentiment sustains them. All
the laws proposed to prevent the sale OF
cigarettes or any other article regarded by
many harmful VIII have little effect unless
a strenuous public sentiment sustains
them. The world cannot be entirely re-
formed by the passing OF laws

Recent dispatches have alluded to the
acts of a British official called the City
Remembrance, who seems to have certain
duties to perform in the city of London.
This is an odd name, but it is only one of
many such in the British civil list. Others
are High Almoner, Master of Buckhounds,
Clerk of the Closet, Keeper OF Crown
Jewels, Master of the Horse, Examiner OF
Plays, Inspector General of Remounts,
Usher of the Black Rod, etc. Some OF
these offices are held by persons of high
rank and have large salaries attached.
They illustrate the tendency of an ancient
political system to run to excrescences.

A feverish Gentleman whose Coat-Tails
stood out behind him like Pendants one
day Butted his Way along the crowded
Street. His Hat was set on the Back of his
Head and his Eyes rolled in a Fine Frenzy
AS he Loped along he took weii-worn Let
tiers and kilograms out of one Pocket ana
put them in another. 1t seemed to be his
Busy Day. He was on his Way to Organize
a Mining Company with Ten Million Shares
of Ten Dollars each and he expected to
Bleed a few Capitalists before Twelve
O'Clock.
While he was turning Corner he In
vented Window Catch which was destined
to Revolutionize the Home Life OF Amer
lea.
Then he happened to think of all the
Money that could be made with Cure for
the Pip in Chickens and he stopped in at
an Agency to get an Estimate for a full
page Display in every Agricultural Paper In
the Country.
After that he went out and did Dog
Trot around the Block three times and
when he was all out of Breath he caasei
into a Private Office and sprung Scheme
for the Iloilo Trading Company, which was
to charter nineteen Iron Freighters OF S.oOJ
Tons Burthen each to carry Cracked
Wheat, Steam Beer. Goldene Jewelry and
other Home Products TO the far-distant

would take the Deal under Amusement, SO
the Promoter dashed out to take Car
While he was riding on the Trolley 1t oc-
Cured TO him that he might Consolidate all
the Surface Lines if he could get hold OF
The Stock. He jumped off the Car and fell
up three Flights of Stairs to form an ALI
ance with a Street Railway King, but the
Latter was too Busy to see him so he went
across the hallway TO ask an Architect
what it would cost to erect Fourteen
Story Sky-Scraper on a Corner that he mad
in Mind. The Architect gave him Rough
Guess. Borrowing a Piece of Paper, the
Hustler figured that he could Clean UP at
least per cent. on the Investment. so he
told the Architect not TO do anything until
they could have another Talk.
He went out and jumped across the
Street a couple of times and then he was
ready to Lunch, so he went over 10

THE MODERN FABLE OF THE CHUCK
LE-HEADED CELEBRITY WHO
WENT BACK TO HIS Ma


A Man who had attained Fame boarded
an Accommodation Train to go back TO the
Home of his Childhood He wanted to re-
turn and Rub it In on the Townspeople who
had predicted that he would never amount
to Hill of Beans. Twenty Years before
when he started away to try and get "a
Half Nelson on the Great, Cruel World
the villagers had been making Book at
Even Money that he would land either in
the Poorhouse or the Pen. Instead of
which he had made a Name in his Profess
sion, had been elected a Fellow of the
Royal Society, had written Piece for The
Forum, had been invited to deliver an Ad-
dress in Boston and had been carrying on
a Filtration with a Lecture Bureau. 1t is
small Wonder that the Great Man antici-
pated considerable Selfish Pleasure In going
back to Patronize the Friends of his Youth
and permit them to crowd up and offer
Congratulations.
When he Alighted from the Train there
was no Reception Committee there to meet
him because he had not heraided his COM
ing. He wanted to give the Town a Big
Surprise, for ne believed that the News CT
his Arrival would Spread like Wild Fire
and probably Business would be Suspended.
He walked over TO the Commercial Hotel
and there was the same old Proprietor

WOMAN,s sPHERE-AGAIN.

Every now and then some man gets up
usually man in a pulpit-and defines
woman's sphere" Invariably he makes it
much narrower than the sphere she is
actually occupying. Invariably he desires
her to marry, to be wife and. mother.
and to be nothing else. He rebukes her for
going into business or for engaging in any
outside of the home. The matter of re-
Enumeration is what particularly "sticks
in his craw," since it is not on record that
a woman ever suffered ministerial reproof
for engaging in charitable or missionary or
church work. even when it deprived her
family of her society five days out of seven.
The Indianapolis minister who took up the
subject last Sunday enunciated nothing
new. All women and men should be mar
ried, he says, "but the men of to-day
cannot marry because they are crowded
out of positions by women with their
proposition is one that most people are
willing to accept. Happy marriage is
acknowledged by every intelligent person
to be the ideal condition for men and
is necessary. 1t remains to consider, how
ever, that ideal conditions do not uni
versally exist in this more than in other
directions. For a great many reasons not
all marriages entered into are happy. 1t
seems to be the theory of the minister in
the woman should be marriage in any
event, with consequent support. AS be-
tween going into business and supporting
herseif-even at the risk of keeping some
man out of position or of marrying
man able to take care of her whether she
is otherwise mate to him not, she
should not hesitate a moment, because.
forsooth, to marry is to enter her proper
sphere. A vast number of women, even to-
day, act upon this theory. They look to
marriage as a means Of support and take
the man who seems to offer the most
in that line. That such marriages are not
necessarily success the well-filled divorce
court dockets show. Would it not be better
that these women should seek remunerative
employment and wait until the man comes
concerning whose congeniality and suita-
bility there is no doubt? II he should never
come. would they be worse OF than to
have passed through the ordeal of the d.
vorce court? Entering business does not
deprive a woman of feminine attributes.
one objection made to her employment be-
ing that no sooner does she become useful
than she marries and goes away.
The second assertion made by the min
lister would be more important if it were
true in any extended degree. 1t would be
interesting to know If he is acquainted with
any man who is prevented from marrying
by cheap female labor. On the contrary.
1t Is the common observation that men on
small salaries or no salaries at all are not
restrained from marriage. but that those
with ample incomes are much given to re-
naming single. The reasons for this state
