President Roosevelt's marriage to

Tourists take great interest in the

PEOPLE OF PANAMA.
On ctaI Pronouncement Fixes the

Panama" and "Panamans," then, it
Is to be; to which we cordially add.
SO let 1t be, says the New York Tr buns.
Ever since the establishment of the in
dependent isthmian republic there has
been some uncertainty as to what its
people were to be called, together with
much discussion and much variety OF
practice "Panamese" was used by
some, "Panamists" by Others and
again "Panamanian" was employed.
Official announcement upon the sub
ject was delayed, and, meantime, word
cOiners' fancieS ran riot The same
thing occurred whenever there 10 Oc-
casion for making new word, but not
always does authoritative judgment
finally fix 80 surely upon the right form
as it has done in the present case
For there can be no doubt that Pan
aman" and Panamans" are the best Of
all the words proposed. 1t is common
rules Of analogy do not uniformly pre-
vail in it, in spelling, in pronounc'a-
ton or in etymology. No, though
they do prevail more widely than
some critics seem to think. But,
however, that may be, if analo-
gy is desirable and lack of it deplo-
l,4ble, surely we should observe it in
our formation Of new words. Now
analogy unmistakably indicates "Pana
man" and "Panamans" as the proper
forms for adoption in this case The
well-nigh universal practice IN Ameri
ca in forming proper adjectives and
names of peoples from the names Of
their countries is to do so by adding to
the latter either N" and ms" or AN"
and "ans" or in a few cases, for sake
of euphony, Ian" and "ians." The
formation of American and Americans
from America sets the example. So we
have Mexicans. Clbans. Dominicans,
Haytians, Jamd.cans. Cuatemalans,
Nicaraguans, Costa Ricans. Colon
biane. Venezuelans. Bra2ilians, and 50
on down to Patagonians. The apparent
exceptions-Canadians SalvadoreanS
and Peruvians-are really nothing but
slight euphonic notifications of the
same rule by analogy with practically
universal American usage; therefo>s,
we must say "Panaman" and "Pana-
mans"

Russia is, or will be very shortly, the
possessor OF the Oldest unchanged issue
of postage stamps in the world. Until
now Hong Kong held that position. The
first Hong-kong stamps were issued in
1859 and are identical in every respect
with those in use to-day. The head OF
King Edward is, however, soon to re-
place that of Victoria, and thenceforth
the Russian issue, with the double eagle
and shield of ST. George which first ap-
peared in 1S64-65, and is still running,
will hold the longtime record.

Guests at Bohemian Club

The Earl of Euston was the guest of
honor last night at a banquet at the Bo-
hemian Club. Sir Reuben H. Lloyd
was the host of the occasion. Seldom
in the history of California has SO
magnificent feast been spread. The
gorgeousness of, the superb decora-

handed good fellowship and express
sions of good Will that We're showered
upon the honored guest of the even
ing, Nor was the distinguished visi-
tor lacking in cordiality in his reply.
which was filled with enthusiasm oyer
the prolonged ovation. of friendship
proffered to him since his arrival in
America.
The banquet was served in the jinks
room, under a bower of grape vines.
from which hung great clusters of Ius-
cious brilliant hued grapes Inter
spersed throughout these decorations
were tiny incandescent lights. Beneath
this superb canopy. was the great
round festive board, which filled the
entire center. OF the hail. The table
was decorated with. a center piece of
growing pink begonias, about which
was a mass of grape leaves. Between
this and the guests places was a gar-
land wrought entirely of punches of
grapes.
CROSS CLEANS WITH LIGHT.
At the east end of the hall and d.
rectlv over the seat occupied by Sir
H. B. Stoddard, was a magnificent
triple purple cross. studded with cleo
trio lights and embroidered on a back
ground of pure white silk On the
stage. surrounded by wealth of. ever
green's, was the representation Of a
Sir Knight in full uniform, mounted on
horseback. Above this whole beauti-
full scene was stretched canopy of a
cloth of shimmering gold. in the midst
of which was a sparkling display of
gold and blue electric lights, A splen-
did stringed orchestra. and a chorus of
so voices added quality to the enjoy
ment of the guests.
Sir r. h Lloyd was most happy in
his speech of welcome and his remarks
were warmly. applauded' by all the Sir
knights and especially by Lord Eus-
ton Lord Euston in reply said that
he was overwhelmed by the lavishness
of California's hospitality. He, was
surprised at the great resources of the
State. The decorations of the city also
received his complimentary notice. He
said the greatest of cordial feeling ex-
listed in England for America and her
people, feeling. he was sure, which
was entirely reciprocated by all on this
