twice and got hit once. German and
Schultz hit the ball hard, the former
getting six hits and the latter four.

THE sNoB In SOCIETY.
Americnn Said to he Different Crea-
ture from His British
Cousin.

The accepted definition of "snob,"
together with its attendant adjective,
"snobbish," is not the same in America
is in England. On the other side it
means social pretense of some kind,
and Thackery has shown under that
head what great variety of the spe.
cies there is. But with us il does not
unnecessarily include pretense. When
we call person a snob the idea is in.
tended to be conveyed is that he or
she is ultra exclusive and wishes to as
sociate only with persons who are con
sidered very smart In fact, to be
smart person must necessarily be
somewhat snobbish, according to the
American exclusiyeness is even more
necessary than in places where the
lines are defined by rank, says the New
York Tribune. The so-called -Four
Hundred is, as everyone knows, di.
vided up into any number of sets and
cliques, but, nevertheless, despite as
sertlons to the contrary, there is al
ways one set that is fashionable para
mount. That is to say, invitations
from its leaders are more priced than
any others, and to be admitted within
its limits is coveted honor. And here
we come back to our accepted defini-
tion of the word 'ssnob." People who
make an effort to get into this society,
and by so doing overlook and neglect
old friends, are termed snobbish, while
the members themselves, who have no
desire to enlarge their small coterie,
or to hide their indifference to the
world at large, come under the same
classification. Thackeray's people,
with their miserable little attempts to
pass themselves off for other than they
are (and we safely assert that there
are more of that ill1 in England than
America), we could call cads-so that
the use Of either term by an American
does not necessarily convey the same
idea as when spoken by an English.
