MRS. ADAiR, HOSTESS.
Breaks All Records as London's Most
Brilliant Entertainer.


LONDON. May 27.-Mrs Adair
seems determined to dispute with the
Countess of Warwick the honor of
being London's most brilliant enter
tainer this season. Following her
sensational fancy dress ball she has
now given a dinner to the Prince and
Princess of Wales, and has beaten
Mrs. Bradley-Martin's record of duch-
esses present at single dinner par
ty--a record made last June.
The Princess of Wales wore all her
finest jewels, which was a special
compliment to the hostess. but she
was almost outshone by some of the
other guests, who included the Duke
and Duchess of Portland. the Duke
and Duchess of Wellington, the Ouch
ess of st. Albans, Princess Henry of
Pless, Ambassador Choate, Alfred
Rothschild and Pauline Astor.
After dinner the guests moved to
the ballroom, where miniature stage
had been set up. 1t was unlike any
thing that ever had been seen in a
London house before. The curtains
were of the costliest cream brocade
and rose red velvet, and on each side
were banks of roses Goldin, an
American humorist, greatly amused
the Prince and Princess of Wales.

RAILS AT AMERICANS.
Englishman Declares That the Veal.
thy Woman Are Snobs and
Hybrids.

LONDON, May 27.-The Daily Ex-
press recently inaugurated a series of
articles upon English society. This
week THE American Woman and Her
Influence" was the topic. 1t says:
81 have the greatest admiration for
the American woman who remains an
American girl, so long as she does not
become ashamed of canned goods or
picked pork or silver ingots that pro-
vide her with such choice frocks and
necklaces of pearls. 1t is the hybrid
that sets ones teeth on edge, the Chi
cago-Park our-hundred-up
ten variety.
II accuse this hybrid of striking at
all that is cherished in the home life
of England; of all that is most mod
est, unselflsh and reverential. l ac-
cuse her of introducing the apelike
decadence of New York society.
play is nobility and notoriety the ideal
at which to aim.
Il accuse her of neglecting her du-
ties and setting an evil example to
those of lower station. She is a
snob to her fingert-ips. Her tuft-
hunting, her struggles for social ad.
vancement are based on the
American idea of getting there.
She has no scruples in her
methods of applying to social life
the ethics of modern finance. She
has no conception of home life. Her
husband is a partner, to be thrown
over il tending to bore. She either
neglects or spoils her children. She
considers knowledge of domestic
economies degrading for so wealthy
lady. She has no reverence and
therefore cannot understand that
there are duties which long custom
has built around high name she has
bought. Her actions are those of a
creature newly civilized yielding to
whim or caprice. In dress she en-
courages prodigality, which is the
curse of womankind today"

OYSTER BAY EXPECTS
PRESIDENT BY JULY I

WASHINGTON, ID. c., May 81
1t is thought here that the president
will be in Oyster Bay for the summer
by July l. He returns to Washington
on Friday, June 8, and is scheduled
for three more trips before he goes to
Oyster Bay. He has accepted the inyi-
tation of Senator Hanna to attend the
wedding of his daughter and Mr.. Nc
Cormick of Chicago, and go to Cleve-
land on June 10, On June Is he will
go to Baltimore to take part in the
festival of the Saengerfest. The next
day he is to attend the commence
ment exercises of the University of
Virginia at Charlottesville.
There are three good places that
should be filled upon the return of the
president These are assistant secre-
tary of the treasury, assistant secre-
tary of commerce and civil service
commissioner to succeed Mr.. Garfield,
who will be put at the head of the
trust bureau of the department of
commerce and labor. The president
offered the civil service place to Hef-
felf1nger, the football player, who de
clined it. President E. II. Clark OF
the Order of Railway Conductors is
most prominently mentioned for the
assistant secretarysbip of the depart
ment of commerce.
The selection of a new assistant sec
retary of the treasury to succeed Mil
ton E. Allies is giving Secretary Shaw
loads of trouble, and will trouble the
president when he takes the matter
up. Mr.. Shaw wants man of the
Robert Armstrong type. young and
vigorous and not necessarily much
of a politician, while the senators de-
mand that the place be made re-
ward for political services.

Senator Depcw's Satisfied Man.

Boston Home Journal; In his ad-
dress before the Monday club OF New
York recently Senator Depew is re-
ported to have said that No one who
has lived wisely should care to go
back and begin again" But suppose
one has not lived wisely. Senator De-
pew begs the question Who is he
and where is he that has lived alto
gether wisely? What man is so COM
pletely satisfied with himself that he
would not alter single incident OF
his life? Is there one who can calm
ly take up the fabric his thought and
deed have wrought and pronounce 1t
perfectly satisfactory? II SO, let him
come forward. Not in envy. not in
malice, do we call him. We simply
want to shake hands with him. to gaze
on his surprising loveliness-and die.
1t Is perfectly true that bemoaning the
past is pretty poor occupation, but
most of us have made at least few
mistakes. and it is quite natural that
we should be impelled to say that
we'd like to start in again and see II
we couldn't live little more wisely
the next time.

rms is the promise OF the Trans

pean development at the present hour
is so striking and so Intimately con.
hected with secret political motives as
10 merit the profound attention of
every American. Why should Ameri.
ca, France and Germany permit the
RUSSIANS to continue their operations
IN Manchuria? Evidently for the
prompt and permanent policing of
mat territory so close to what is to be
the world-junction of the Trans-Alas.
kan-Siberian railway with the Trans.
Siberian at Irkoutsk.
With the names of the president of
the French Republic and the Shah
OF Persia on their patronage commit
tee the European directors of the
Trans-Alaska-S Siberian company went
TO Russia last September. In st. Pet.
ersburg they were received by the
czar, whose government welcomed the
work in principle and demanded a re.
port on the concessions that would be
asked in return for constructing the
Siberian end of the line. Less than
week ago this report was finally sub
mitted to the Russian government.
In the United States the well.known

WAR ON CLAIRvOYANTS.
Vigorous Campaign in Germany
Against Spiritualists and Others.

BERLIN, May 27-Germany is car
rying on vigorous campaign of pros
ecution against faith curists, mediums,
clairvoyants, hypnotists and the like,
who are denounced as swindlers.
The latest is the case of woman
in Merane, Saxony, named Louise
trenzel, who Interested a whole dis
trict by her tales of the spirit world.
She was an adept in spirit writing
and her charge for a message was
sometimes as high as 5000. The po-
lice have arrested her and have dis
covered complicated apparatus
which she employs in her calling
Another interesting case is that of a
blacksmith named Torg in Bavaria
who cured animals by the magnetic
power of his eye" Torg had an enor-
nous clientele among the farmers and
vine dressers, and had an income Of
about $1,000 a year until the police
began making inquiries. He pro-
fessed also to shield vines from dis
ease by various incantations.-
Not far from Potsdam there Is a
village in which several arrests have
been made by the police of persons
possessing the power of bewtching
the peasants cattle, and who were
paid by the peasants for not exercis.
ing their malign power.
And now much virtuous indignation
is expressed over the extensive adyer.
