When Mrs. Russell Sage made her appearance at the dinner of the May flower society one evening recently n was a matter of comment, says the New York Times. She is not woman who gets away from her home after the evening shadows fall, as a rule. But she and Uncle Russell" renewed their youth, and not only sat out the dinner, but thu ough the long speech making that followed This is the one evening of dissipation that Mrs Sage allows herself during year. She en- ters into it's enjoyment with all the Zest of her younger associates in this organization of Puritan descendants, and makes the most of this red-letter evening of her year Mrs. Sage told a friend that she feared she was talk ing life altogether too easily now, and is really becoming lazy, because on some mornings she does not have her breakfast until 8 o'clock.

 African War;
 One of the results of the war in South Africa was an outbreak of curi- ous namas. Luckless infants born at or :uout tie time of great events are being chris.ened after the events them- selves as well as after the more promi- nent individuals concerned. Redvers Butler Thompson was used not long ago, and Dundee Glencoe and Elands- laagte have all been given. At the Cape, among the many curiosities are Talana, Elanda Smith, Belmontina, Grasspana, Modderriva Brown and Penn Symone White Robinson. A Boer named TrosHie, residing in the Gre. dock district in Cape Colony, had his son baptlz ,d Immanuel Krueger Steyn Triomphus-a very unintelligent anticipation of the events that were to come. The mania appears to have taken South Wales in very acute form. Recently Modder River Jones, John Redvers Butler Thomas, Harry White ReGynrs Joseph, Harold Baden :dafeking Powell and Ezekiel Methuen Macdonald Baden-Powell Williams were the names given to the helpless infants by patriotic parents in Meath.

People went about in boats and wagons and. as the rules of the road were suspended for the time, there was a great mix-up in the more crowded taoroughfares. In some places pedestrians waded up to their necks and in others up to their knees Scores of natives went about the streets spearing fish. The fish tanks had been overf1owed and it was good fishing in all the principal streets, es- pecially in the celebrated Madam A native clerk who was late in arriving at his office excused himself by saying that in wading to his place of busi- ness he was much annoyed by the fish, one of which jumped out of the water and hit him in the eye-New York Press.
