Class Customs in England.

To what extent authors, playwrights
and, above ALL journalists, are recruited
from different class of society than
here in the United States, and how
ignorant they are as a class of the
usages among well-bred people. is
amusingly shown by the pious horror
and Indignation which has been ex-
tensively expressed in print at the i'm
pertinence" of Joseph Chamberlain in
writing to the Duke of Devonshire as
My Dear Devonshire," in lieu of
giving him his title, in the recently
published correspondence between the
Two statesmen in connection with the
affairs Of the Liberal Unionist Associa-
ion. No account seems to be taken of
The fact that the Duke and Mr.
Chamberlain are of about the same
age. and have been not merely close
political allies but warm and intimate
personal friends for sixteen or twenty
years past. 1t is therefore just as
natural that Chamberlain should drop
he title in addressing the Duke as that
he latter should dispense with the
Mr." in writing TO the former Secre-
.ary Of State for the colonies.-Balti-

King Edward Licensed Barristcr.


An exception has been taken to my
statement in these columns recently to
the effect that King Edward was a full
f1edged member of the English bar and
the only reigning sovereign to be entf-
tied to practice in courts as a lawyer.
would reiterate my assertion, con-
firming it by means of letter which I
have received from Henry Tudor of ST.
Louis, who was called to the bar in
England about the same time and who
reminds me that Sir George Lewis of
the well-known London firm of solicit
ors Qawyers) Lewis & Lewis, so famous
as criminal attorneys, sent shortly aft
erward to the then Prince of Wales his
first and only brief in some case of
petty larceny, accompanied by the
usual fee of one guinea for himself and
half-crown (about so cents) for his
clerk. While the King did not appear
in court in the case in question, and no
other attorney to my knowledge ever
ventured to follow the example of Sir
George Lewis in confiding a case to
Edward VII, the latter cannot under
the circumstances be described as an
altogether briefess barrister.-Balti-

SCIENTISTS
LIFE COMES
TO A CLOSE

DR.. Herman H. Behr, a scientist
nents, passed peacefully away at his
residence on Bush street yesterday
morning, shortly after 10 o'clock. By
his death California loses a scholar
whose work and efforts gave him
standing with the learned men of the
present generation and whose place can
never be filed
DR.. Behr was a resident Of this city
for many years and though of late he
had led a secluded life, yet his achieve
ments will never die. He was born in
Germany eighty-five years ago, and
after gaining fame in his native land
set sail for America with the hope of
achieving more triumphs.
His ability as a scientist was soon
recognized and for years he was con-
nected with many of the larger and
more important schools and colleges
in the East. He came to San Francisco
many years ago and during his long
sojourn in this city contributed much
to the cause of science and literature.

death was engaged in writing a book
for that institution.
DR.. Behr was the author Of several
scientific works, all of which were
highly regarded by educational insti-

The direct cause of DIR. Behr's death
was heart failure. a malady from which
he had suffered for many years. He

THE PASSING OF THE
WHALE AND WHALEBONE
The Decay of an Old British and
American Industry and Its Pa
fbPfip aSnPct

The sensational sale Of a whalebone
at Dundee at the record price of $1,000
ton was no doubt quite gratifying to
the vendor, but there was a pathetic
aspect 10 it Of which a few people had
any definite conception. Whalebone
at $4,000 ton sounds another note
nearly the last-in the long-drawn
knell Of the whalebone cutter.
There was a time when whalebone
cutting was q fourishing industry in
this country employing a great num-
Der of men. The day is approaching
when the whalebone cutter will be
nearly as hard TO find as the dodo.
You want 10 know about whale

LAUDATION OF LABORS
Justice Brewer and Senator
DOlliver Praise Achieve
mentS of the Institution

WASHINGTON, March 6.-President
and Mrs. Roosevelt, Justice Brewer of
the Supreme Court Senator Dolliver of
Iowa, the British ambassador and
Lady Durand and many other persons
prominent in official, diplomatic and
social circles attended the service to-
day in commemoration of the one hun
dredth anniversary of the British and
Foreign Bible Society at st. Johns
Episcopal Church. Justice Brewer and
Senator Dolliver were the principal
speakers. DR.. Daniel c. Gilman, presi-
dent of the American Bible Society.
presided and made a few remarks, in
which he said that during the lifetime
of the British and American societies
they had circulated 100000, 600 copies OF
the Bible and parts of the Bible to the
nations of the world.
Justice Brewer said 1T is scarcely
necessary before this audience to enter
upon a eulogy or defense Of the great
book of books. But this is the age of
the iconoclast when destructive critic
cism runs rampant. Some criticism,
indeed, is reverent and useful-that
which seeks simply by correcting wrong
translations and arranging in chrono-
logical order the matchless truths of
the Scripture.
But there are other critics, without
such lofty aim, who strive to destroy
the faith of other men simply because
1t is held. The iconoclast is popular
man to-day. To him the Bible appears
merely as a sort of craZy-quilt of un-
true history, distorted science, weak
poetry, Impractical morality and vague
foreshadowings of the unknown and
unknowable. Yet we who believe know
there are passages in the Bible unsur-
passed in solemn beauty in the litera-
ture of the world: that its ideals of
morality are those to which the best
within us is always aspiring; that its
promises are the sweetest and most
comforting that have ever come to the
tired hearts of man."
Justice Brewer declared that the
greatest glory of this nation lies in the
fact that ever and always she has
striven to translate into the vernacular
of international law the parable of the
Good Samaritan and the golden rule.
Senator Dolliver said that the Bible
Society had contributed more than any
other influence the creeds of Christen-
dom into one grand whole, representing
universal Christianity.
"One Of the grandest enterprises 1
ever heard of any organization, Sen
ator Dolliver said, was the offer Of this
society to make a language for a bar
barous people whose speech had not
even attained to the dignity OF an al
phabet. The society undertook to first
make an alphabet, then translation
Of the Bible and finally literature.
Certainly the brain of man never con-
ceived a grander philanthropic pur-
pose"
