COST OF THE DURBAR.
British-Indian Function Probably
Caused Expenditure of $1O,OOO,OOO.

The New York Herald's European edition
publishes the following: Now that the mag
nificence Of the durbar has gone people are
counting the cost
Including the bill the Indian government
will have to pay, the expenditures incurred
by the Indian princes and chiefs and the
English governors and lieutenant govern
ors, it is safe to say that at least $40, 100000
has been spent in furnishing a spectacle
unique in the annals Of the world.
The Indian governments bill Is likely to
exceed So, 100000.
The cost to Lord Curzon personally has
been very great, for a large number of
guests were entertained by him entirely at
his own expense.
The expenses of the native princes and
chiefs vary greatly, from the 100000 said
to have been spent by the Nizam Of Hyder-
abad to the $4,000 for which sum the
minor chiefs were able to make but an In
different display. When 1t is remembered
that the number of these princes and chiefs
reaches nearly one hundred the total ex-
penditure can easily be calculated.

$500, 900 or 100000 for, building
his new tabernacle in Zion City and
yesterday he addressed an urgent

I need outside of Zion.' he said
''but ] come to you because I want
the money out Of clean hands. I
Must have the money and must
have it soon, because the contract
for the steel construction of the

not only your money, but your
lives too.

answer. Put on a walking skirt
and jacket, the palmer ones you
have, and wear the shoes. and the
stockings, too, that will best bea1
the public gaze. Got out your
softest, simplest felt hat put it on
and tie over it and your face the
strongest veil you own, in the
hardest double knot; then with
your mind fast glued to the place
you are starting for start for it.
Walk on as straight as you can with
your breath all blown. away, with
both hands holding tight to the
sides of your hat, with the front
gore of your skirt at your left side
and the back pleats at the right,
with your hair tickling your nose
with a wisp of muddy paper flying
into your eyes, with sand and gravel
getting into your mouth with every
stitch of apparel that you water in
the place that rightfully belongs to
some other stitch, with your whole
self propelled provokingly back,
then more provokingly forward,
walk on. Think about how absurd
all the other women and their
cloths look, and the men look, and
their clothes and decide that you
don't look the least absurd and that
you don't care i: .you do. just go

That is the way to meet March and
all the rest of the people who rub
your hair the wrong way. Let your
hair lie the way they want it to lie,
for that is just what they don't
want. Don't laugh in their faces.
That will never deceive them. They
will know all the more surely if you
do that you mind them very much.
Just pursue your rufled way, if you
can, as If they never existed. Don t
let March know ever that you mind
him and don't let yourself know it
either.
For. after all, March is a useful
fellow, if we will only think 80.
He has work to do with all his
clustering, or he wouldn't have
given him thirty -one days to do it
in.

New York Commercial: Nothing
that President Roosevelt has said
in recent months has created more
intense or Widespread interest than
his familiar utterances on trace

all spheres Of society are pleasing to
her as they give assurance that the
average American citizen is u normal

home-the foundation of the state
or endanger the state by his sell
fishness.
While this is true in this metropo-
lis we see many women leading
dogs on the street and bestowing on
them the care children are entitled
to. We might call it wasting
mother love. Also IN his city there
are many persons who shudder at
the notion of the introduction of
that strange and boisterous animal,
a child, into their hotel or flat. Per
haps it is right that here should be
certain places to live where those
who cannot endure children may
abide in peace-and loneliness. They
have our sympathy; it may not be
their fault. But we do not expect
to see the ''childless home' nor
even the childless hotel, increase to
such an abnormal exent as to be
menace to our civilization. We are
not built that way.

Lincoln Journal when a man tells
you he is an anti railroad man. put
him down as cheap political
demagogue and you will have the
right man every time. A man may
consistently favor government
ownership as an economic measure
but railroads are necessary and to be
against them is to be foolish. II
one is opposed to the political domi-
nation of men who run the railroad
that is another matter, but after all
one man has as much right to
dabble in politics as another, and we
dare say it IS possible for men con-
nected with the management of rail-
roads to be imbued with the desire
to do what is right. These extrem,
lists who rant contin ully when there
is nothing to rant about make the
world weary.
st. Paul Globe: There ought to
be some sort of curb put upon such
mon as Benjamin Ryan Tillman.
Using the position to which he has
been elected by the legislature of
South Carolina he has been a con-
slant and irritating reproa-h to the
party with which he claims affilia-
ton and which he constantly mis-
represents in the councils of the
nation, he is going about the
country exhibiting himself and in
dulging in infammatory denuncia-
tions of a respectable body of
citizens. He should be restrained
from using his position as senator
Of the United States to induce peo-
pie to pay good money to see him
exhibit himself.
Tillman does not represent the
genius of his age or party. Long
utilization with the "white trash" OF
his section of the country has made
him their representative rather than
the exponent Of the ideas of the
more respectable element of the
south. 1t may be that he properly
represents the attitude of the ignor-
ant whites of South Carolina with
the re gard to the nergo; it is quite
certain that he represents them in
their uncouth and unwashed
vulgarity.
