THE BARMAIDS OF BABYLON.
From the New York world.

A recent translation of King Ham
onrabis code, written about $3.50 years
before Christ, gives us an insight into
the life of the great city of Babylon at
that remote time, and of the way i'll
which the excise question was handled
by its legislators.
Nearly all the dealers of wines and
liquors at that time were women, as
many of the laws translated from the
code speak only Of women as sellers of
drinks. Severe measures were taken
against those who adulterated the
wines or mixed them with, water, so as
TO safeguard the purity of the article
for the use of the public. The barmaid
was held responsible for all disorderly
scenes or drunkenness in her premises,
and death was the penalty for those
who did not denounce all cases of
drunkenness to the police. Those wonn-
en- who were employed in the temples
were forbidden to enter public hostel
ries under penalty of death, and even
drinking in private was forbidden to
them.
Special police officers were detailed
for the enforcement of the excise laws
in the city of Babylon, but then as
well as now the officers charged with
this duty were, If we are to believe
the code in question, either negligent
in the performance of their duties or
too willing to accept brides from the
barmaids in the shape of drinks, or
even lmoney.
Severe punishment is dealt out in the
document to the police officers who
shall accept brides in connection with
the enforcement of the excise laws of
Babylon, but It is probable that then
as well as now many of the fair sa-
loonkeepers found a way to bribe the
officers and evade the laws.

London,r Hirh Rente.

He is indeed lucky man who owns
building property within the four-mile
radius of London, for he can COM
mand a small fortune in the way OF
rental for his houses, shops or offices,
as the case may he. Singularly enough.
II is not in the west end OF Lon
don as many people imagine, where
the highest rents are paid. but near
the old lady Of Threadneedle street.
Some time ago one room near the
Royal Exchange let for between $4,000
and $4,000 a year. while a house agent
who advertised certain properties In
ThrogmOrton street asked $1,000 year
~ rental for each of seven telephone
boxes. For a suite of three rooms on
the mezzanine floor $1,000 a year was
also asked. and $4,000 required for six
rooms on the first floor.
For shops and business premises in
the Strand gigantic rents are paid.
although, of course. Bond street is the
dearest thoroughfare in the world with
regard to shops. Many shopkeepers
between Chsring Cross and the old
Lyeeum rheater pay between $4,000
and $4,000 rental, exclusive OF rates
and taxes. Perhaps one might be able
to obtain a very small shop for $1,000
or $500 per annum; but such a price
would secure very Indifferent accom-
modation-probaloly only the one room
which faced the street.

POLITICAL. .

Maybe the campaign slogan will be-
Vote for Roosevelt and Hitt-the
trusts"
All the details of the Republican
National Convention, which will meet
in Chicago on June 81, have now been
arranged but the selection Of the can
didate for vice president. The unauimi-
ty Of party sentiment in favor of Presi.
dent Roosevelt provides an assured basis
upon which to settle convention pro-
ceedings. Former Secretary Of War
Elihu Root will be temporary chairman
and Speaker Cannon will be permanent
chairman. Mr.. Roosevelt's name will
be presented by Ex-Governor Frank
Black of New York. and will be second
cd on behalf Of the Republicans of the
South by Postmaster Henry s. Edwards
Of Macon, Ga Before the convention
meets the situation in regard to the vice
presidency will probably be cleared up.
So long ago as last fall the opinion was
held by the late Senator Hanna and
other party leaders, with the concur
renee. Of President Roosevelt, that
Senator Fairbanks of Indiana was the
most available candidate for vice presi-
dent, but there has not been such con-
centration of sentiment in his favor or
such hearty acceptance Of the sugges-
tion by himself as to determine party
action. A boom was launched in favor
Of Speaker Cannon, who does not want
the place, and makes his sentiments to
that effect perfectly plain. Recently
there has been movement in favor of
the nomination Of Representative Hit,
and the action of the Illinois state con-
vention in formally presenting his can
didacy goes q long ways towards settling
the matter. Mr. Hit has long repre-
ssnted the Ninth district of illinois, and
previously had distinguished career in
the diplomatic. service. He was secre-
tary of legation at Paris from 1874 to
1881, when he became assistant secre-
tary of state. but resigned the Office in
about year to enter congress, where
he has rendered distinguished service.

zor. It is made out of the finest steel,
and the handle is q masterpiece of the
cutters art, elaborately carved and
beautifully polished 1t would take 9
veritable giant to WELD knife like
this. The blade is altogether Of Amer
lean manufacture, and it is expected to
show for the first time that American
cutlery has now reacheda point of per-
fection where it fears no-riyalry. Thi
giant carving knife cost several thou
sand dollars, and special machinery had
to be made before it's construction could
begin. No such knife was ever before
manufactured.
