Leisure Glass Must Work.

Leroy Beaulieu a well-known econo-
mist of Paris, has declared that the
leisure class Of men will have to work
for their living in 1852. He made this in
teresting statement in a lecture on the
conversion of the French IL per cent
debt into per cent bonds. He said that
the rate Of interest Is constantly de-
creasing, and predicted that in the next
twenty-five years capital will be glad to
get per cent. and that fifty years i.ence

bonds and railway securities Will bear !

There are grown-up people Of abundant
wealth who are equally ignorant OF what
the country Is in it's relation to general
business interests. They assume that
when stocks go up ten points the country
is richer thereby, and that when a great
syndicate takes $50 900. 900 worth of prop
erty and capitalizes 1t at $500, 900 this
paper performance has created S45o,o0 600
of new wealth.
They buy and sell and go specializing

home and bring daughters -aliured by the pros

surplus of young, unmarried women.
How dire a disaster this dearth OF eHg1ole
bachelors is considered by Washington hoSteSSeS

evenings that had been selected for series or

Washington women had little difficulty in secur-

bachelors in the city, but the invader recruited
her dancing corps of men from New ork, thus

more complete, she finally lured. by the sheer
