WHO THE LEADERS ARE.
Simmons and Rollins Do Some
Talking About Butler and
Acock.

WashintOB, Aug. I'm discussing the
situation of the republican party in the
| state to-day, Senator Simmons took occas-
ion to refer to the activity of ex-senator
Butler, whom he regards as the actual head
of the North. Carolina organization. "While
State Chairman Rollins is the n~ominallead.
er," observed the senator, Ex-senator But
Ter is in reality at the head Of the party.
This has been apparent for some time,
while he may not be the wlsest, he is cer-
tainly the smartest leader the republican
party has ever had in North Carolina
When the psychological moment arrives he
will be leading at the dance, just as he did
with the populists, and he will be ready to
drive a bargain with the organization that
offers the best terms" Senator Simmons
is just back from Atlantic City, where he!
has been for the past two weeks with Mrs.
Simmons and two young daughters. They
will return to Raleigh tomorrow.
Asheville. N. c., Aug. 10.-Special. Re-
publican State Chairman Rollins was seen
by a representative of The Post this morn
ing and asked If he had seen the int erview
with Senator Simmons, sent out from
Washington, in which the senior North
Carolina senator gave it as his opinion that
former Senator Marion Butler was in Eeali=
ty the leader of the republican party in.
this state.
Chairman Rollins gave an affirmative re-
ply and added that MI. Butler was In real
ity not only not the leader Of the republi-
can party in this state, but that that gentle
did not aspire to assume such a role.
Chairman Rollins also followed this topic
a little further, saying that inasmuch as
Senator Simmons had seen fit to express an
opinion with regard to the leadership of
the republican party, he would take a
similar privilege and gave the name of the
real leader of the Democratic party.
"Governor Aycock is the man" said Mr..
Rollins, land if the democrats are success
full at the next election which appears to be
doubtful at the present time, that gentle
mar will certainly displace MI. Simmons
in the senate"

Lingerie blouses are holding their

of accentuating it.

Almost Gave Away Fortune

Carl Fraenkel, we'll known among
0ld-time bowlers as the proprietor for
many years of the Uncle Sam" alleys
in the 'Bowery, between Second and
Third streets, is placed by his friends
at the head of the absent-minded
class. In disposing of the fixtures of
his establishment on Saturday he let
a safe containing $2S,000 worth of
jewelry and securities be knocked
down to the highest bidder and be car
ried away before he remembered the
value of it's contents.
-Fraenkels business until COM
paratively short time ago had been
prospering, and he had accumulated a
snug little fortune, part of which was
Invested in stock Of the Central Brew
lng Company. of which he is a direc-
'tor. AS his patrons were forced to
move farther up town by the march
Of business and the incoming of for
eigners and others who were not in
terested in bowling. his trade fell
away, and he determined to go out OF
business. Everything he had in the
alleys he disposed of at auction. Af-
ter trying day he was comforting
himself with the reflection that,
though he was parting from many as
sociations that we're dear to him, he
had provided so we'll for the future

Education OF Our Youth

Prof Oliver Lodge, an English edu-
Gator, complains that the examples
given in. many school arith,netics are
Of no practical value. MANY sums in
compound multiplication and divi
sion,' he says, ARE of this character
acres, roods and poles; drams pen
nyweights and scIuples. Such sums
are surely unknown in amy actual
business. They may be called concrete
examples, but many of them are arti-
fetal, stupid and depressing. A ma
chine could be contrived to do them
but it would be useless When things
like them are wanted, as they may be,
in some simpler form, by houselseep-
er or shopkeeper, perhaps, they are in
practice done by tables. This sort of
stuff is neither arithmetic or mathe-
matics nor common sense; it is an
opportunity for wasting the precious
learning time Of child and disgust
ing him with study
Such teaching, Prof. Lodge thinks is
injurious. He describes it's results as
follows: "Children leave the home or
the kindergarten and enter school,
a preparatory school perhaps, a school
anyway with class teaching and usual
ly with young and unframed teachers.

Short Dancjnu FrockS.

It is becoming more and more the
fashion-to speak correctly, the fad
to have all dancing frocks made short
and for summer simple, inexpensive
muslins and silks, spangled nets and
gauzes all follow the trend of fash
ion. There is much that is practical
in this. The long trains were absurd
:ly inconvenient and hard to manage
and did not even show to advantage
in crowded ballroom, whereas these
short skirts are, if we'll made, extreme
ly smart and becoming. The skirts
are very full around the foot and the
flare is most carefully calculated, so
that around the hips there shall not
be one inch of unnecessary material,
while below almost the effect of GRIN
oline is demanded-and so many ruff
f1es and flounces of chiffon and lace
as are displayed by the Whisk of the
skirts as the wearer moves about
we'll, fortunately, there is not SO much
difficulty in keeping the skirt looking
fresh and neat as there was with the
long skirt that after one wearing was
a pitiful spectacle.

Method OF KiIling Seals

bulls show fight and rush at the drfv-
ers with surprising speed and agility
when pressed too hard. AS they are
driven to the killing grounds their gait
is q sort Of canter, as they raise them
selves on their t1ippers and then pull
their heavy bodies up. They repeat
this movement rapidly for hundred
yards and then fall, painting and ex-
hausted. The method of killing adopt
ed inf1icts less suffering on thelvictims
than any other that could be devised.
But one who has witnessed the opera.
ton will>not wish to see it again!
Those who do the killing are ma
tives who are expert at the business,
each armed with a stout club about
five feet long and three inches thick
at the heavy end They cut out twen-
ty or thirty of the struggling creatures
and, striking each one ON the head,
crush the soft, thin skull. Death is in
stantaneous. AS the club falls with a
thud upon each graceful head these
that have escaped the, first crushing
blows seem to become conscious of
their impending fate and their appeal
ing eyes, soft as those of a deer, their
plaintive cries and their Intellectual
efforts to escape would certainly stay
the arm of any not schooled by years
and generations to do this work. The
stranger to the scene is forced to turn
away, though he must admit that not
a throb of conscious pain follows the
descent Of the heavy club

are killed for their skins, this natural

or three drivers slip in and cut out,

make great noise by shouting, slap

beating on tin cans. The seals are

Girl in White Here Again.
:. A woman of fashion asks: What is
the white! linen girl?" Dear me- says
she, you just stirred us all up over
Alice blue, watermelon pink, and such
.unheard-of things. Now it's the girl
in white, Who is She"
"A girl who returns every year,
said the woman who knows. "She is
as perennial as May flowers or spring
poems. She is a girl of taste::''
This season the girl in smartest
white chooses linen for her fabric
The white linen girl is said to have
originated in London, where the Prin-
cess Victoria set the fad of wearing
white linen a year ago.
To be a white linen girl one must
wear white linen exclusively. This
applies not only to the very heavy
white everyday suits, but to the del
icately embroidered evening dresses
as we'll and to the lovely piazza and
garden party gowns They can be
made very sheer and as expensive as
the most extravagant can desire.
White linen or white eyelet must
extend to the parasol, hat, shoes, belt
and stock. Some extremists even car
ry white linen bags.
= White golf materials of the yeal
are linen, cheviot, heavy white can
vas suiting, pique and even denim
The object is to get material thai
will not: grow limp, and there can be
nothing too heavy Tor the purpose
There come linen goods thick as {
board, and just the thing for the gol
field. With these go the knitted caps
or the stiffest white linen sailors.
