Does Mans Loye Excel
That of WOman'S S?

With some justification the man in
an affair of the heart may assert that
his fiancee's claim that women alone
give undiluted affection is an empty
boast which has done service long
enough in face of the facts
Facts, which are ungallant things
and won't stand firm even against
womanly opinions, seem to indicate
that the man will give up more for
love than the woman.
That being the case, is it not rea-
eonabe to suppose that the article
OF affection which the man hands out
is little better in quality than the
brand handled by the woman?
This is an iconoclastic statement
and is made with due reserve. 1t is
unpleasant to upset the traditional
idea that in women alone must one
took for genuine. self-sacrificing af-
fectien. There is. however. a certain
amount of justice due the man, and
Daniel has come to justice.
Taking a number OF prominent af
fairs Of the heart which came to light

score stands to to the credit OF

Feminine skepticism may point to
one of the tallies on the masculine
side with scorn. That which credits
a man with setting tire to the hair

world that this young man, who was

this he would set fire to her. 1t may
be considered as a remarkable bit
OF self-sacrifice, for it got Lawrence
into trouble. OF course there are
two ways of looking at it and if you
do not agree with this tabulation
you are at liberty to scratch out this
tally and leave the score to still

Ancient Family Of murphy.

Murphy IS a name worn by many
thousands of American citizens OF HI
bernian origin. Few probably. If any, are
aware that the ancient Irish rendering
OF their patronymic is "o'Morchoe." The
O'Morchoes reigned as Kings in Wexford
in ancient times and until 1879 the chief
of the family or rather of the clan was
known as THE O'Morchoe." For some
reason or other the name was then cor
rupted into Murphy. But a few years ago

line of the old Kings OF Wexford secur-

Where Policemen Are Needed.

To the Editor of The Washington Times.
As Efficient as our Police Department is. there
are many ways in which it could be improved,
either by putting on more men or by increasing
the number Of beats" Of those already on the
force. The section Of the city most slighted
in this respect is that known as Bloomngdale,
and what viii be Reservoir Heights. This
munity has grown wonderfully in the past few
years, and the citizens think that its size
and importance deserve better treatment by
the police authorities
The section is woefully lacking in proper
patrol and protection. During the daytime
policeman Is almost a curiosity and arouses
much attention when he actually appears. In
the night time matters are worse still. The
only time is sure Of seeing a policeman is
when he waits near the box from which the
policeman reports or actually goes to the
going home at a late hour-at a different hour
each highland have taken particular notice
Of the absence Of policemen. In a COM
muQity such as Bloominsdale and one which
viii in time most certainly become important
on account Of the installation Of the filtration
plant il seems that some definite action should
be taken looking toward the betterInent of
police conditions.

have not been acted upon, and the residents

Another Noted Man Gone.

With the death in obscurity in South
Africa of the Right Hon. Sir William
Marriott, there disappears another Of
those English public men of note who
were so besmirched by the Hooley scau-
Gals as to ruin their career and useful
ness in political life. Sir William
record was indeed a strange one. For.
having taken orders as a clergyman of
the Church of England, he suddenly
abandoned his ecclesiastical calling For
the legal profession. Then he drifted
into politics, and after having secured
election to parliament as a Liberal, he
found it OF advantage to become a con-
vert to Conservatism, and received his
reward in the shape OF knighthood ara
the office of judge advocate general.
which, in those days, carried with it a
salary of $4,000 a year. He likewise
became one of the most effective plat
form speakers for the Primrose League,
and was ultimately made member OF
the privy council.
The Washington times., 1903-08-17
Helped Hooley's Game.

When Hooley became a bankrupt and
his affairs were investigated by the
court, the fact was brought to light that
Sir William Marriott had been among
those who had derived the largest
amount of pecuniary benefit for serv-
ices in making the promoter acquainted
with peers of the realm. and other dis
tinguished personages who were in a
position to advance his social and fnan-
cial interests. II likewise came out dur
ing the course of the proceedings that
Sir William had accepted a very large
sum of money, and a promise of more.
not only for securing the admission OF
the intolerably vulgar promoter to the
Carlton Club in London. but also for
undertaking TO secure for him either a
knighthood or a baronetcy in connec-
ton with the diamond jubilee of Queen
Victoria This undertaking, of course,
Sir William was unable to fulfill, and
so pronounced was the disgust which
the unsavory role which he had played
in the entire affair excited in the minds
of his political associates and of the
public in general, that he found Ii con-
venient to leave England and to trans
fer his residence to South Africa.

Dubiin's Great Park.

While on the subject of Ireland, may
mention that Phoenix Park, at Dublin.
in which the Viceregal Lodge is situated.
and which in the old dueIing days was
the place where gallant Irish gentlemen
were accustomed to settle their little diff
ferences, derives its name not from
Phoenix the NEUROLOGICAL hero, brother
of Europa and companion of Achilles II
the Trojan war, but from the old Irish
word "Ffonn- Uisge" pronounced Fin
uiske"D, which may be translated as "a
spring of running water" and many will
doubtless be interested to know that
IL is from this same word in the combi-
nation 'Uisgebeugh" that is derived the
modern word of whisky.
Phoenix Park, or the ''Phaynix." as the
natives call it, is the most extensive and
beautiful in all Ireland, measuring some
seven miles around its boundary. 1t
formerly belonged to the knights Hos
pitalIers" who surrendered it to King
Henry VIII, and it Was inclosed as 4
royal deer park until the famous Lord
Chesterfield. in the middle of the eight
eenth century, while Viceroy of Ireland
opened it as. public park for the citi-
zens of Dublin.

Newlands Clings to Silver.

The Hon. Francis G.. Newlands. who
represents the mining camps in the Dor
ough OF Nevada. and also that beautiful
suburb of Washington-Chevy Chase
in the United States Senate. refuses abb
solutely to surrender his free silver con-
victions Neither has he lost hope in
the doctrine of 16 to I.
On the contrary, he predicts that
within few years there will be such a
stringency in the money market, such
necessity for larger circulating me-
dunn, that Wall Street will demand the
free coinage OF silver. He admits that
the money question win not be an Issue
In the next campaign. and accordingly
sets aside that matter until some flu
ture day and turns his attention 10 the
consideration of candidates.
Mr. Bryan, he declares. is the most
popular man in the Democratic party
in the West. and the only one who can
successfully contest with Roosevelt in
that section, although he takes occasion
TO say at the same time that the Ne
braskan will not be nominated because
he is not a candidate.

Senator Noel Eliminated.

Judge Critz, the conservative candi-
date, received the second highest num-
Der OF votes and will therefore be the
only candidate against Major Vardaman
in the second primary. Senator Noel
will be eliminated from the contest. He
received 24,231 votes as against 1914
for Major Vardaman, and IS. Alb for Judge
Critz. Major Vardaman received in the
electoral college 100 votes. Judge Critz
ia. and Senator Noel %.
The choice in the forthcoming pri
mary will turn upon the division of the
"a, 900 votes cast for Senator Noel. and
both Major Vardaman and Judge Critz
expect to win. The former has lead
of more than 1000 votes, and hence it
is necessary for Judge Critz to receive
the bulk of the Noel vote in order to
get the nomination. His friends are
confident that he will be able to do this,
especially as Senator McLaurin, who is
a power in Mississippi State politics,
has declared in his favor, as has also
Bishop Galloway. likewise a man Of
much influence. In the first contest Sem
ator McLaurin refrained from taking
sides, and his preference, If he
had one, was not known Neither
did he take any part in the fight be-
tween Senator Money and Governor
Longino for the Senatorship- Senator
McLaurin had no opponent for his own
seat. The second primary will be held
on August "a.

Political Gossip
Here and There
A Second Mississippi Primary.

second primary election is necessary
in Mississippi to determine the Demo
cratic nomination for governor. In the
contest ten days ago there were three
aspirants for the nomination-Major
Vardaman. Judge Critz. and State Sena-
tor Noel, the author of the primary
election law.
Major Vardaman. the radical candidate
who made his campaign on the negro
issue favoring division of the school
fund and its expenditure in proportion
to the amounts paid by the white and
colored races, received the largest num-
Der of votes. but fell short OF a ma
jority either of the popular vote or of
the votes of the electoral college
The electoral college in Mississippi is
made up of the representation of the va
rious counties of the State, each county
having a certain number of votes ac-
cording to its population.
