F. Hopkinson Smith, prominent
Boston club man talking before Soci-
al club in the Hub few nights ago,
after remarking that "Uncle Tom s
Cabin" precipitated the war between
the North and the South, said; "This
book, Uncle Toms Cabin, is the most
vicious book that ever appeared. It
compares with Remnants first book on
Russia. I could go into the prisons of
the North to-day and write similar
book. The book precipitated the war
and made the North believe nothing
but the very worst of the South. We
are not an inhuman people; we are all
alike; we are American. It was an
outrage to raise the North against the
South. The book was an appalling,
awful and criminal mistake.

LEHR, CENSOR OF SOCIETY.

Harry Lehr-the new Ward McAllis-
ter of New York society As the World
announced exclusively yesterday, he
has been appointed private secretary to
Mrs. William Astor, the recognized
leader, and has taken up his abode at
her residence, No. 842 Fifth avenue.
As such he will be the arbiter of fash
ion, just as the late Ward McAllister
was before him.
And first of all Mr. Lehr has upset
the limits laid down by Mr.. McAllister.
1t is no longer the 40O'' but 1.-The 600.
That was the number invited to Mrs.
Astor's ball on Monday evening lasS. 1t
was Mr.. Lehr who prepared Mrs.
Astor's lists.
Mr. Lehr is a master of tact. No one
knows better than he how Mrs. Astor
sticks to old friends, rich or poor. He
didn't strike single name off her invi-
tation list, but he did tack on some
thing like 100 new ones.
'FYou know, he explained to Mrs. As
tor, eve want some fresh faces, some
new blood, There are lot of people
in New York who are IN every way
qualified to enter society, and plenty of
charming girls and entertaining men.
They should be invited. -
Mrs. Aston gave Mr.. Lehr carte
blanche. The 400" of Mr.. McAllIster
had already grown to $500 by the
growing up of young men and young
women of the smart set, but Mr.. Lehr
added to these names of persons never
before hidden to anything of Mrs.
Astor's.
The result greatly delighted Mrs.
Astor, for her ball went off with an
eclat she had never known before. This
was due to the young people that Mr..
Lehr caused to be invited.
The result was his informal appoint
ment as private secretary at salary
higher than cabinet member receives.
Mr.. Lehr got ten thousand dollars a
year for selling wine to society, and he
gets more from Mrs. Aston.
Mrs. Aston is the grandmother of
Miss May Van Allen, whose name rum
or connects with Mr.. Lehr's. Mrs.
Astor's approval would go a long way
toward bringing about the early an
nouncement of an engagement.

If the majority of the Washington
correspondents are well grounded in
their information, there is not much
prospect that there will be any reduc-
ton of the war taxes by the present
session of Congress. 1t is very well
understood that these taxes are now
producing more money than is needed,
but the Republicans are so busy push
ing their selfish schemes that have not
time to attend to the matter of lifting
any part of the burden of taxation from
the shoulders of the people.

Brain-Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent authori-
ties. They have dispelled the silly no.
tion that one kind OF food is needed for
brain, another for muscles, and still an
other for bones. A correct diet will
not only nourish a particular part of
the body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet, however good your food
may be, its nutriment is destroyed by
indigestion or dyspepsia. You must
prepare for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses Of
Green's August Flower, the favorite
medicine of the healthy millions. A
few doses aids digestion, stimulates the
liver to healthy action, purifies the
blood, and makes you feel buoyant and
vigorous. You can get DR.. G. G.
Green's reliable remedies at H. Alex
Stokes Drug Store. Get Green's Spec

AS RAILROAD POLICEMAN
Green, the Alliance Policeman n, I,
Decides Not to Fight the
Town Council.

Alliance, Dec. 10.-Policeman Robert
Green, who was asked to resign from
the Alliance police force because he
was found in saloon the night gang
Of burglars and footpads terrorized the
city, has anticipated expulsion by Sc
curing position on the detective force
Of the Baltimore G. Ohio railroad. He
had made application for a place with
the railway company two months ago,
and Sunday visited Pittsburg and had
a consultation with Superintendent c..
e. Barr Of the railway company. The
result was that he will enter upon his
duties as railway detective the first Of
the year.
Green has been on the Alliance po-
lice force for two years, and his friends
insist that he has done good work In
that capacity. The people of that city
however, were so ,disgusted at the
funk of the Officers the night of the
burglaries and hold-up that they pro-
pose to make a clean sweep.

SOME NOTIFICATIONS.
Still the N. o. T. Compa ny Will
Not Grant Akron the g.
Cent Fare.

Akron, O., Dec. 11.-There will prob
ably be a compromise In the fight be-
tween the Northern Ohio Traction COM
pany and the city. The company is
trying to get a franchise for an extern
sion of its lines in South Akron. City
officials have been trying to hold the
matter up until they can get the COM
pany to give Scent fares during the
four best hours of the day.
There was conference yesterday,
at which 1t was practically agreed that
the company would accept all the con-
cesslons demanded, except the Scent
fare proposition. When. the fight
started they said that they would not
give anything for the right to use the
streets. The concessions that they
agree to include are the widening of a
street, placing an arc light at every
street intersection along the line OF
the extension and other smaller things.
It will amount to several thousand dol
lars to the city during the life of the
franchise. 1t is the first case in which
franchise has been granted In Akron
where the corporation that gets 1t is
compelled to give anything in return
