BLAST FROM MARIE CoRELLI


She Calls American Millionaires Hit
crates Dabbed With Wealth.
Marie Correlli had an article entitled
''Vulgarity In Wealth" in the new Eng
lish magazine King and Country. In
bitterly attacking millionaires she
writes:
las a nation of bombast and swag-
ger the United States is kind of rare
show in the worlds progress, but her
strength is chiefly centered in dollars,
and her influence in the social world
teaches that dollars are the only ware.
English society has been sadly vulgar
lied by the American faint"
Miss Corelli does not approve of
either Morgan or Cornegie, says Lon
don cable dispatch to the New York
American. I'VE see J. Plerpont Nor
gam" she writes, "a moneyed octopus
stretching out his greedy tentacles in
every direction and striving to grasp
the British shipping industries and in
terests, Everywhere 1t is devouring
everything In it's deadly grip, which, if
it is permitted to hold, would mean
mischief, though no doubt 1t might
create rejoicing in America"
Mr.. Carnegie is freely abused for his
generosity in donating libraries. He is
called poor human biped," is &C
cused of patronage, ostentation and
swagger 1.-THE masses under Miss
Corelli hear of Carnegie strewing free
libraries all over the surface of the
country as if they were so many lolli-
pops thrown out of a schoolboy's satch-
ell. Then follow the account of his
doings with mingled wonder and deri-
sion. With many of the more indie
pendently thinking classes the million
aire Carnegie's money pitched at the
public savors of patronage which
they resent and of an ostentation
which they curtly call swagger Once
wealth could not purchase an entrance
into society; now it is the only pass

quently associating with the royal
family are known to accept payment
for bringing otherwise obscure persons
under the immediate notice of the king,
and it is most unfortunate and re-
grettable fact that throughout the
realm the word goes that no such OBJ
scure persons ever dine with their SOW
ereign without having paid middle
man for the privilege.
Wealth in excess" Miss Corelli
says, wealth in chunks, wealth in
great, awkward, unbecoming dabs, is
plastered, as it were, by the merest
haphazard toss Of fortunes dice on the
backs Of uncultured and illiterate
Americans who, bowed down like asses
beneath their golden burden, are
asininely ignorant. In very few cases
does immense wealth go hand in hand
with refinement, reserve or dignity.

interesting in conversation"

Unable to realize her good fortune.
Mrs. Schnell was not overjoyed at first,
but when it dawned upon her her agi-
tation knew no bounds. Consul Cen
cral Guenther al Frankfort-On-the-
Main was communicated with and the
bond was sent to him. its face value
being $500. The bond, which was Of
the issue of 1867 and which had been
put in its hiding place many years be-
fore, had 2S coupons attached, showing
that the last one was removed for in
terest due January /, 1873. Interest on
the bond, however, ceased April 6, 1879.
The money, which amounted to
$6S7S1, was sent to Mrs. Schnell in a
government warrant, and her life was
begun over again. She is still resting
contented in her new home and no
sightseer or tourist, who are attracted
to the place in hundreds now, are let
go away without a view of the famous

a Working Vocabulary.
1T doesn't require any great length
Of time to learn language if one has
patience" said a man who has mas
tered several languages, land when I
hear man regret that he is not able
to speak French or German or Spanish
or some other language unknown to
him cannot conceal my amusement
In nine cases out of ten I might say
that the men who express a regret of
this sort handle English very poorly
if that happens TO be their language.
THE chances are that their vocabu-
laries are extremely limited, and it
would probably surprise them to know
that despite the advantages of birth
and education they could not command
more than 900 or 700 words in English
if their lives depended upon it Yet
they are able to carry on intelligent
conversation, and many of them may
become forcible and even automatic in
their sayings, and they plunge into dis
cussions of literature. art. music and
| other subjects of such fine elegance
and do it rather successfully too.
Now, how long ought it to take for
| a man to learn 600 or 700 or even 1000
words in any language? Certainly it
ought not to take any great length of
| time. and from my own experience ]
know that it does not. OF course / am
not speaking now of mastering so that
one can get the full benefit of all the
refinement of speech in a particular
tongue.
But 7 have in mind the idea of
speaking intelligibly in a given Ian
guage and being able to understand
perfectly what is said in return. I have
a system which have worked out, and
it has been of vast benefit to me and
has enabled me to learn number of
languages. It occurred to me while
was in Mexico a few years ago on inn
portant business.
II could not speak a word of Spanish
and could not understand the language
I concluded that would learn the Ian
guage. My plan was simply this:
| made up my mind that would not re-
| tire at the close of any day as long as
! was there without learning at least
three words in Spanish, how to pro.
nounce them and what they meant
That would give me ninety words pei
month, or something over 1000 in q
| years time" New Orleans Times,
