conceal himself behind the Bass Viol

Charley Freshes and wonder how they
did it. He would listen to the merry
Babble and wish that he could butt in
and Talk all Evening without having
anything to Say. Sometimes he would
overhear the Conversation that was
causing all the Girls to double up and
have Duck Fits. Then the Cold Sweat
would gather in large Beads on his
Forehead. The Talk was a Cross be-

a Bad Actor. In the early morning
Practice he could do a Quarter in 20,

he struck a foolish Side Motion and
ran into the Fence.
When he was among the Fellows he
opened up like a Morning Glory. He
told Stories and said Sarcastic Things

made up Verses. The Young Men
would repeat these Bright Observations
TO the Girls and tell them how witty
and entertaining old Splivey was. So
the next time Homer showed up, the
vivacious little Kittens would form a
Semi Circle in front of him and say
"Oh, Mr.. Splivens. do tell us a Story or

GAMBLING in SMART SET
FASHIONABLE LONDON WOMEN
AFTER EACH OTHERS MONEY.

LONDON, May 30.-The passion for
gambling pervading the smart set in
London threatens to lead to much
scandal. Stories are already current of
well known women in financial difficulties
over gaming losses, in one case amount
ing to. it is said, $4,000 in a single sit
ting. The World exposes the universal
ity of the craze, saying:
Everyone is bent on beggaring his or
her neignbor. 1t is the smart hostess,
who, regardless Of all considerations Of
hospitality and friendship, invites guests
to her house for the express purpose of
winning their money. Her only aim is
to get together those who will play rou-
lette or bridge and can afford to pay UP
handsomely When the hour Of recount
ing comes. There is no less danger for
the gilded youth in his country house or
sin a London drawing room than ait
Monte Carlo. Night after night women
encourage gambling in their houses and
watch complacently the pecuniary scourg-
ing of their friends. To be at home a
certain afternoon in the week has be-
come the way of announcing those who
can play and who can find their hostess
drawing room a gambling saloon and so
firmly has the passion for snatching
money from others purses taken pos
session of the feminine mind that women
of position no longer hesitate to act as
beaters for those who are ready to pro-
vide sport If birds are found for them"
