vanderbiIts Will Entertain.

The Alfred Vanderbilts and the Reggie Vanderbilts have been arranging for a great deal of entertaining during the summer. Capt. and Mrs Glen Collins have been among the visitors to the Reg gies during this week, and l hear that the Ilunnewells will arrive later. Mrs Nelson will sail shortly. She left New port on Thursday. She joins her son and daughter-in-hw the Jules Neilsons abroad. Mrs. Nelson is very much pleas- ed with the match, and near that Jules has improved greatly since he embarked on the matrimonial ocean. The Alfred Vanderbilts were in town for the Su- burban. Alfred drove out a stage party and Mrs. Alfred was with the Loews One missed Miss Mable Gerry, but hay ing performed her duty at the Goelet we'd ding, she went fo join her sister Angelica and her parents at Newport The ex- commodore Is not very i'll. but he suf- fers greatly from combination of rheu- matism and gout, and he has had one of his very severe attacks.

Very Exclusive Affair.

The long-looked-forwa and much heralded Roosevelt Robinson wedding yes terday was as exclusive as could possibly have been desired. The lists had been pruned and compiled by committee of three until all undesirable elements were said to have been most thoroughly weed ed out. The air was filled with Roose- velts The ninety first cousins who were said to be in Washington for Miss Alice Roosevelts coming out ball when the President first occupied the White House were all present. with a corresponding number of Douglas R Robinsons and smat- tering of the smart Boston younger ee- ment as represented in this years grad uating class at Harvard.

Antarctic Appetites.

From the Chicago News.
 Reports from the Discovery, which has been exploring the antarctic regions, give interesting particulars as to the appetites which come to half-frozen men on long sledge expeditions. The chief articles of diet on these excursions were pemmican of various kinds, with biscuits and tea or cocoa, the latter for preference, being more sustaining. Chocolate was also used. The chief trouble the sledge par ties had to contend against was that the quantity of food allotted to each mem- Der of the party was so small in bulk that 1t failed to give a sense of satisfac- ton on long trips, especially toward the end. Hunger proved a dreadful night mare, some of the men having horrible visions of tempting dishes. It is ques- tionable if anything could compare in the way of hardships suffered to this form of modified starvation on such trips.
 Whenever sledge party returned to the ship that was the occasion for the con sumption of huge meals. It is no exag- geration to say that ones appetite bord- cred on the voracious. The arduous work of sledge pulling. with deficient bulk and variety of food and the depressing in- fiuences of the vast waste of ice and the monotony of general existence combined, made men lose weight and look lean and hungry on their return. But 1t did not take long for any one of them to make up weight after getting to the ship. where the unlimited supplies of food' added to the rest rapidly produced cor pulency.
 As an example of the appetites Of the natives some of the habits of the giant petrel may be mentioned. It will feed on offal until 1t is so absolutely gorged as to be unable to rise off the ice m flight Then 1t runs along the ice. if chased. spreading its wings out as sails: Before being captured. however, the petrel will suddenly stop and disgorge auan- tity of semi-digested food. and then 90 of on a run again. If overtaken sec ond time 1t will repeat the performaEces and when once 1t has got rid of its din- ner flies away.

A Chinese Dog Story.

From the New York Tribune.
 Prince Pu Lun and the Chinese minis ter, Sir Chentung Liang Cheng, attended the races at Gravesend early in the month.
 A number of New Workers were pre- sented to the distinguished foreigners. and one of them told an incident that illusterated the remarkable intelligence of dog of his.
 The minister said with asmile;
 q am reminded sir, of Chinese dog story:
 There was a Chinaman who had three dogs. When he came home one evening he found them asleep on his couch of lockwood and marble. He whipped them and drove them forth.
 '"rhe next night, when he came home, the dogs were lying on the floor But he placed his hand on the couch and found | 1t warm from their bodies. Therefore, he gave them another whipping. "The third night returning earlier than usual, he found the dogs sitting be- fore the couch, blowing on 1t to cool it."

Graves and Cash in China.

From the Chicago Tribune,
 Then, all along the line of way were the graves--ancestors of the village peo- pie who held their family tombs in such reverence that hey could not, would not hear to the notion of removing them away from the desecrating locomotives breath. They would not hear to 1t: not until they were paid four taels apiece to remove their ancestors to farther ground, and at that fixed price the dry bones and crumb- ling collins were rattled out of the way promptly. There was never a forgotten pr unknown grave on top of the ground Every grave had fearful, eloquent des- cendants, who had devotedly tended it and worshiped the tablets of its particu- lar occupant, and could produce the tab lets if desired.
 A5S rhspect and consideration was paid these ancestors by the American engi- neers great care was taken not to of fend any of the prejudices of these can tankerous descendants who were paid promptly, on the nail, the fixed market price of four taels for each ancestor re- moved from the right of way.
 At one place so many graves were re- ported in one section that the vexed en- gineer took his maps and the dreadful compass and measures and began to work the puzzle out When it seemed that there were il graves in a plat of ground eight feet by ten feet in extent, the Chinese assistant only gave a sickly smile and gave up that bid for fortune. There was consternatlon. too, when, all the ancestors having been paid for and moved out of the way, they came across older and un- expected graves far below the surface Some of the skilled Chinese connected with the work sickened with chagrin and lost face at such revelations, such decep- tion and villiany by the dead and they had 1t out with the villagers near by for not knowing of such hidden treas ures,

port of the parish at the diocesan con vention of Alabama last May. This was just preceding his renewed demand for new call, and reelection of the incum- bent rector.
 The resolution and history on the Ad- vents side are very long and detailed, but this is their gist and purport The publication has caused invense feeling in Birmingham, and unusual interest throughout and even beyond, the state of Alabama. Popular opinion is strongly with the Advent vestry, and It's rector, meanwhile. goes quietly about his duties. taking no part in the discussion. He seems to leave 1t to the two active parti- cipants to fight 1t out
 Bishop Beckwith still holds to his orig inal position. He is combative and az gressive in his methods; and will leave no effort unused to whip the defiant ves- try back into submission. At Is stated that he is wroth at the charge of bad faith" imputed to him in the discussion and is on the warpath to hunt down the author of that affront.
 What the outcome will be there are many conjectures. One of these Is that the bishop will order the Advent closed, as General Thomas did all the Alabama churches when Bishop Wilmen refused to pray for President Lincoln. This, how ever is absurd, as there is no canon or law for such attempt. even If the bishop desires to make it. Another theory, and probably a still wilder one. is that the bishop will find himself put in the wrong and will resign. This is founded on the fact that he has heretofore resigned too good livings that did not suit him. but these were not bishoprics. and the wag- gish quote. in reply. the remark of An drew Jackson: Few die and none re- sign.'
 Such is the present merry war wag- ing in the diocese of Alabama. That 1t will be thirty year war" or one of Confederate duration none suppose Mean while it gives food for much gossip and much guessing.

 New York, June 25.-The scenes at Wayne. Pa, on Tuesday, at the Goelet- Whelen wedding celebration there, re- peated those of the ducal wedding last in character, save that on Tuesday they had the setting of green fields and lawns and village instead of a city street. The same curiosity seeking and sensa- tion hungry throng of uninvted women crowded around the church doors, pushed in upon the arriving guests and almost mobbed the fair bride when she left her carriage. Had it not been for the re- straint of the police no one can say to what lengths the crowd would have ven- tured. When the ceremony was concluded this same feminine mob scrambled over the church pew backs broke down all barriers and in a moment tore down and broke up the large floral bell over the chancel and stripped the church bare of every flower and branch and twig used for decoration. It was an astounding and a disgusting spectacle. and frightened

Has it come to such a pass that the wedding of any socially prominent young woman and a man is looked upon by certain clements In the community as a circus? Must the beauty and sentiment of wedding be marred by exhibition of insensate curiosity and a display of predatory propensties? Must the privacy of the union<of two people be invaded, and in such a manner that not police, but platoons of police, must be called in to preserve even a semblance of order?

Will Be Gay Affairs.

The weddings this week at Islip are to be extremely gay affairs and for these, too, the lists have been most thoroughly looked over, so that it may be said that once more the celebrated 400 is again a magic number. Over four hundred is quite too large a number of guests to make any affair smart. Under four hun dred argues ones self unknown, so that the term which threatened to fall into innocuous desuetude has taken a new lease of life. All these young married couples of the first families" are start ing out on their social careers as mar red people with large incomes and a per- fected visiting list, so that it behooveth them to keep within the desired bonds.

Apportionment of Taxes.

The state auditor has completed
the task Of figuring the apportion-
ment of the taxes for the support of
the state government among the 81
counties of Idaho. According to
the enactment of the last session of
the legislature, the total of the gen
eral fund levy for the year 1904 is
1915, 900, while special taxes, auth
orized by three different laws of the
state, bring the total to be collected
up to 1904, 688.O3. These special
taxes are for the state wagon road
sinking fund established in 1898,
the state industrial school bond
sinking fund, fixed in 1908 at three
mills and the state deficiency bond
sinking fund Of 1908, fixed at one
mill.
Ada county pays over $4,000
more taxes than any other county in
the state, because of the larger
amount Of assessable property in the
county. 1t leads the list of the
counties with total apportionment,
for general and special purposes, of
S37,71l.5O, while Shoshone county,
which ranks second, will pay but

and Latah counties, all from the
northern portion of the state, rank
third, fourth and fifth respectively,
being followed in the order given
by Canyon, Bingham, Fremont,
Washington and Blame, all from
south Idaho.
The county which will pay the
smallest amount of taxes for the
state government is Custer, which
will contribute the sum of 81, 1925
trifie over one-eighth the amount
assessed against Ada county. BOISE,
the county which ranks next to the
lowest, leads Custer by about 1928.
The amount of taxes apportloned
to Bear Lake county for each pur-
nose 10 as follows: General levy,
