'CARLlSLE AND HIS WIFE
The Topic of His Lecture-Jubilee
Singers Kafir Boy Choir,
Etc.

The bio audiences which braved ad-
verse weather conditions yesterday
afternoon indicates that the Chautau-
qua spirit dominates the people OF
This city and that they would lend
their support to an annual event OF
this character. The heavy downpour
of rain which penetrated the canvas
covering what is regarded as the audi
torium causing much discomfort,
which was, however, taken with the
greatest good nature and Jolllty IN
the world, gave good reason for Mr.
Shaw's remarks anent the much moot
ed question Of pavilion, and certain
" those who desire that the Chautau-
qua shall be a permanent affair had
excellent reason to urge the erection
of this structure, altho' there is
question in the minds Of many people
of the town whether or not a public
park should be put to such purpose.
However, the discomfort caused by
the rain yesterday afternoon shows
the necessity of some more agreeable
place Of meeting if the Chautauqua
continues yearly affair.
Prof Vincent s Lecture
Admittedly the most delightful at
ternoon lecture yet given this season
was that of Professor Leon Vincent
with "Carlisle and His Wife, for
its subject, and the deep interest
unaffected iii subject Of q more
purely intellectual nature than those
often given in series of entertain
ments of this character, goes to show
the wisdom of the managers in bring
ing to Richmond people of the repu-
tation Of Professor Vincent. Profes-
sor Vincent did not enter into crit
ical discussion of the work of Carlisle
as a writer except in general way
but entertained his audience with a
fascinating picture of the personality
Of Carlisle and that of his wife, show
ing how naturally enough their alleg-
ed unhappiness would result from the
association of two such pronounced

English Marriage Rate Declining.

Like everything else the marriage
trade in England is bad. Registrars
of marriages are complaining. They
state that there has been an appre-
ciable falling off in their duties dur
ing the past year, and that conse-
quently their fees have been less. The
tendency is still very much on the
downward road It is only in times of
prosperity that the young folk can
find the necessary finds for starting
housekeeping. Few of them can
think of marriage just at present
The Sheffield Telegraph points out
that the decline in the marriage rate
is not cOnfined16 the working classes,
which rather suggests that there are
other causes at work as we'll as bad
trade. If the young men are growing
too nervous to take q the response
bilities of matrimony the ladies have
the opportunities this year Of remind
ing them of their duties. But even
with the assistance of leap year it is
not expected that there will be an ap-
preciable improvement in the mar
rage rate until trade is better

The Sultan Of Johore.

The sultan of Johore, who is spend.
ing holiday in Europe, knows his
way about London pretty we'll by this
time. So did his father. The latter
died here, and the son would have
been better off had his sire remained
at home and looked more closely at
ter his dominions. AS it was, the
new sultan had pile of the paternal
debts to liquidate before he could call
his patrimony his own. It is no mean
estate which he inherited. Johore is
the only state in the Malay peninsula
which is not responsible to the Brit
ish government for the conduct of its
private affairs. 1t comprises an area
of some 5000 square miles. and has q
population of 250,000. The sultan is
taking steps to develop his resources
by having railway cut through the
virgin forests of his country. Only,
the carrying out of such an enterprise
is hardly congruous WITH the story
circulated in the papers q month or
two ago of his going on the stage

It looks to the Independent as
tho the city could in some
manner see that the farmers who
wish to come here to trade from
the north country, could get
here without unhitching their
teams three miles in the country
and walking into town on the
railroad. 1t would have been q
good plan had a ferry boat been
built and the farmers and their
teams brought across free OF
charge. 1t is almost impossible
to make a pontoon bridge across
the expanse Of water, but a ferry
boat would not have cost much.
A great deal of trade will leave
Minot for this reason, and we
have no one to blame but our
selves.

HAVE NO sass ron TITLES.
Highs Sounding Names OF British Peers
Without Significance.

i IL HH = F
Curious as It is that the Duke of
Devonshire should derive his title
from county with which neither he
nor his ancestors have ever had the
remotest connection, he is far from
singular II this respect among his
brother peers. Taking the dukes OF
England alone, it is sutficientsto say
that Manchester, Richmond, Newcas-
tie, Marlborough and Fife have no
connection at all, either territorial or
residential, with the place titularly
associated with them. More singular
still, there are Scottish peers, even
representative peers for Scotland in
Parliament-for example, Viscount
Falkland-who are of purely English
descent and own not single acre
north Of the Tweed while there are
Irish peers, such as Viscount Valentia.

sitting in the House Of Commons for

The Optic will now be busy ex-

too new to take a part in the fight
therefore is toe new at this time
to say anything for or against

believe with them thatit pays to
be conservative. After t h e
editors have been here a year or
50, they will be in a position to
tell where they are at. That's
reasonable.
