 THE NEWS FROM LONDON Bryan in the British Metropols-The American Grand Danes Shut Their Doors Against Him
,s.,ssgssssss,.sssass
BY HENRY D EvEREAux.

London, December 19.-Mr. Bryan has made rather a favorable impression upon those who met him, and heard him speak, but he did not get into the so- ciety crowd at all. I believe they were afraid of him. A certain duchess had some idea of taking him up, but she waited for her grace of Marlborough and other great American danes to be- stow their smiles and hospitality upon their countryman. When they did not do so, he became, of course, "impossi- ble." I am sorry for MT Bryan. He has lost an interesting chapter for the book he is expected to write about us.
 A question of great importance to MT Gladstone's youthful grandson, the pres ent owner of the Hawarden estate, was decided by the house of lords last week. There has been a dispute as to whether the reservation of mines and minerals by a private act of parliament passed during the reign of George IL, under waste lands on the Hawarden estate, afterwards acquired in connection with the Dee navigation improvement scheme, was continued by subsequent acts, al- though not specially reserved The long standing litigation on this point has been finally settled by the judgment of the house of lords in favor of the owner of Hawarden, who will benefit very largely by the decision, considering the extent and value of his estate.
 I mentioned last week that Mir Whit ney and the Messrs. Keene have not sub scribed to any of the races for next year and 1905 which have lately closed. MT. Whitneys intention of retiring from the English turf has been known for some time past, and all his horses (except Ballantrae) will be sold. I understand
The Birmingham age-herald., 1903-12-20

that Messrs Keene's colors will be sel- dom seen in England in future, and it Is probable that most of their races horses will be disposed of at the New market winter sales. Some other and more important retirements are immi- nent so that several training establish ments are likely to be nearly if not quite empty before long.
 I am informed that Messrs Keene have at last discovered that a divided stable is a mistake, and costly one, so in future they will concentrate themselves on the American turf Among their horses to be sold at Newmarket are the 2-year-olds, Bobrinsld and Lancashire both of which animals have shown good form. I expect, however, that Bobrinski will next season turn out a non-stayer Cap and Bells IL, winner of the Oaks in 1901, and Dazzling are going to the United States and will be reegated to the stud. Dalesman IL, Flying Prince and Hurst Park will also be sent back to America. J. R. Keenes colors first appeared in England about 1880, and in 1881 he won the Grand Prix and the Cam bridgeshire with Foxhal. He discon- tinued his patronage of the English and French turf for many years and during his second period the principal success of his colors. so far as l remember, has been the victory of Disguise IT. in the Jockey club stakes of 1900 on which oc- casion he received a plumper from Truth, the general tip for that race being Da- mond Jubilee.
 I am surprised that the home producers of girls have not already approached MT. Chamberlain, and begged him to in- clude in his scheme some arrangement to exclude from our shores the dumping of American girls. The latter compete with the home market under most unfair conditions. Their parents by means of trusts and such like pernicious associa- tions. are able to give their daughters

As to Pepper.
the New York Press.

From the New York Press.
 If you ask for pepper, 1t Is -team hammer to a toothpick your grocer will produce the white variety-something practically unknown to civilization in this part of the world twenty years ago. The stuff hasn't the old-fashioned peper taste It's only claim to notice is that it is less pungent than black pepper and is not so readily seen in the food. It is more expensive than black pepper, The principal woods employed in its manufae- ture are white poplar, ash, hard maple and birch In India they make white pepper of decorticating the black pepper berries, and that is very superior con diment. It is, however, too expensive for general use

vast sums of money, and in this way they are able to compete unfairly for the best home customer in the matri monial market. It may be said that our nation profits owing to these wealthy girls spending the money with which they are freighted in England. The ben eft, however, is questionable. Already there is a vast amount of vulgar osten- tation in what is called the smart Lon- don set, owing to the import of colonial millionaires, which raises the standard of fashionable existence, and lowers and degrades the tone of that society into which so many aspire to enter to the despieabe level of the competing pluto erats of Newport and New York. This can only increase, if we. are to have the American golden girls,N who become peeresses, also making London the field of their barbaric lawlessness.

TO BE TAXED BY WEIGHT. Swedes Weighing Over 125 Pounds
 Must Pay Tax.

The men of Sweden are to be taxed by weight. Every man tipping the scales at 125 pounds must pay acertain sum an- nually, while those who weigh 1S0 will be required to pay double that sum. The government could largely increase it's revenue by requiring every one to take pr. Burkharts Vegetable Com pound, for it digests food so perfectly that the user gets the full strength and nourishment of what is eaten. It makes flesh, fills the veins with pure, rich and healthy blood and makes strong, robust men and women. Costs only 25c for thirty days treatment at drug stores, or s1.00 for a six months guaranteed to cure treatment.

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
CONTINUED SUCC ESS OF GREAT
INVENTION.

Opportunity for Making Investment
That Msy Yield Fabulous Returns
Interest In the Daily Demonstrations
Here.
The wonderful commercial value of
the wireless telegraphy is becoming
more and more apparent, and at the
office of the New Haven representative
of the Marconi Wireless Telegraph
Company of America, at 514 Malley
building, the daily demonstrations of
the efficiency and success of wireless
telegraphy are being viewed with in
tense interest. To all of these the pub
lie is invited.
New reports from stations of the
company attest further the reliability
and value of the invention. In New
Haven the telephone had one of the
first demonstrations of its usefulness,
when at a public rally at the Skiff
Opera house the great theologian, the
late Rev. Dr. Leonard Bacon, of this
city, in the presence of many men Of
note on the stage and in the audience,
talked with big Hartford magnates. AT
that time few dreamed of the vast sue
cess which was awaiting the Bell tele-
phone, nor the many millions of money
that would be reaped from the develop
ment and progress of this invention.
The men that put money into the Bell
Telephone company, and let it stay
there, made minis of money. A similar
success may await those who invest in
the stock of the Marconi Wireless Tel
egraph Company of America. AS is
well stated in the advertisement of the
company: .-,-%...... H.. ...
eff you had put few thousands or
even few hundred dollars in the stock
of the weIsbach light when it was first
offered, you might now be living at
your ease. Perhaps you know some
one who did. We know of one gentle
man who made 1900 per cent. on his
money in that enterprise. The Wells
bach light effected an economy in the
use of Illuminating gas, similar to the
economy that will be effected in teleg-
raphy by the substitution of the Mar
conf system. Like the Marconi system,
the Welsbach lighting system was
scientific triumph. It required some
nerve, some foresight, some thoughtful
consideration, to brace one up to the
investing, point. Once that was done,
the rest was easy. The main point for
consideration in a proposition of this
kind is, Will the company's affairs be
wisely, honestly and ably conducted?
Is it to be game Of freeze-out or an
honest business enterprise, managed in
behalf of the stockholders"
The opportunity to become sharers in
the success that awaits wireless teleg-
raphy is now before investors. 1t will
pay any one to call at the company's
office and witness the daily demonstra-
tions of the wireless and learn what
the system and the company are doing
and the big money which, from indica-
tions, awaits the early investors in the
Marconi Wireless Telegraph Company
of America.

RIDING A cENTIPEpE.

The quality of imagination, which
part of the outfit of the able newspaper
correspondent. is sometimes utilized in
the preparation Of his expense accounts
when tits not easy to make both ends
meet on the. itemized document, which
must pass the critical eye of the man.
aging editor, says Golfers Weekly. A
young man who has done much import
ant work for New York newspaper
was sent last year to investigate GER
tain sensational conditions in the back
country of Kentucky. The trip neces-
STATED a good deal Of horseback riding
and also several haIts at crossroads
taverns over night In such wayside
retreats the company was congenial
and the correspondent enjoyed the ex..
perience, barring two disastrous ses-
sions Of poker, at these stopping
places.
when it came to making UP an
itemized expense bill for the trip, he
found himself grievously out of pocket
He added every legitimate item of cost
that an auditor might let slip by, but
the deficit was still appalling, and
he knew that it must come out of his
salary envelope, sooner or later. By
way of helping along, he remembered
that his horse had cast a shoe on two
or three occasions. at a cost of 81 per
cast paid to country blacksmiths ON
route. Everything counts said he, and
in haste scattered through the long ex-
pense bill the item, Horse reshod, ST.
He, intended to revise the bill and give
it final inspection before turning it In,
but forgot to take it out of his pocket
again. until he passed it in at the
office. The managing editor was in
a great hurry, and he scrawled an o.
K. without any comment, to the joy
of the correspondent.
when the young man went to the
cashiers to collect, he received a shock
which re-echoes in that office to this
day. The cashier is an aged man, usu-
ally impenetrable to anything approach
ing jest. In his forty years of service
with this newspaper he had never been
known to daily with a joke of any kind
He carefully read to the bottom,

way would you mind telling me whether
