JEN3 IN ENGLISH SOCIETY


| In England and In London, whereso
many different social wheels fit WITHIN
wheels, there still exist some very close
and carefully preserved circles. These
are, for the most part, composed OF the
members of very old and veryss pfedtf
English nobility and gentry. and. this
,cterie OF families is as haughtily re-
served and as exclusive as the carefully
hedged about aristocracy of Austria or
lold France. says Lady Broome, In
Ainslee's.
Regarded, however, as q whole, dc
not think can truthfully say that 4on
don society is quite SO difficult to enter
or so ehary of new blood and neweom-
ers as is the accredited and empowered
land established smart set which rules
and regulates. In, let US say, New York.
| In the first place London society As
much too big and made up ofstoo many
| different elements In order painstaking-
| ~ to examine into and consider the an
tecedents and qualifications of every
man and woman who knocks for admis-
sion to its agreeable circle. II welcomes.
with hearty greeting, all amusing
cheerful, interesting individuals. who
conduct themselves decorously, and a
great part OF its pleasantness lies in the
fact that it'includes artists, authors. &C
tors, statesmen, dusky-skinned oriental
princes. as well as the fairest and gay,
est OF American beauties, in its drawing
room gatherings.
Nothing, I think, is more distinctive
ofwhat We might. call the open door,
OF good fashionable London society. as
contrasted with that Of America, than
the excellent welcome and standing
which the we'll bred and wen born Jews
ind not only in the salons of private in
dividuals, but ut court as well.
No descendants of the fei1ow yoy-
sgers of the Conqneror hold letter So
cial positions than do tho |; othschiId
family, for example,, the Sassoons. or
sle Blschoffesheims. I do not. think we.
can Just find their equals among the So
cial figures in any American cities, and
Lady Jessel and others of the very pur-
est Hebrew blood carry their titles by
inheritance from distinguished and
honored ancestors or by marriage into
high Christian and English families.
How much the Jewish element In Lon
don society makes for charm and va
riety Is easily demonstrated by the su-
perb entertainments which the heads of
the RothSchilds and Bischoffesheim
families give fhrour hos,t tho coouov, e.,
London and at their country homes, and
by the dignity. grace. aplomp and
beauty of many of the leading Jewish
hostesses; and in this and In the ready

PROTECT BREEDING BIRDS
Reservations Established by Presi.
dents Order in Three
Locations.

Executive orders creating three rev
reservations for the protection of the
breeding grounds of native birds were
signed by President Roosevelt October
10. The names and locations of these
reservations are as follows:
The "Slskiwit Islands reservation"
embracing all of the unsurveyed Islands
Of the Siskiwit or Menagerie group of
islands at the mouth of Siskiwit bay, on
the south of Isle Royal In Lake Superior,
Mich. This reservation embraces Sec
lions %, "a, Is. &c, 81, 80, "a and S5, In
township "a north. range sc west. Upon
these islands between 5000 and 10000
herring gulls breed annually, besides
number of other species not nearly so
numerous. 1t is the largest and most
important herring gull colony within
the limits of the United States.
The Huron Islands reservation" en-
Huron Islands group lying near the
Huron Islands group, lying near the
south shore of Lake Superior and en-
bracing sections 26, u, "a and 35. In
township SO north, range 20 west, Mich
igan. Some $500 gulls. together with a,
number of other water birds, breed upon
these islands annually.
frs frs ~Passfge Key reservation. en-
'bracing an island near the mouth Of
Tampa hay, on the west coast of Florida
known as Passage Key. and situated in
section 6. township "a south. range 16
east. Thousands of handsome terms
have bred upon this little key annually
ever since the Florida coast was frss ex-
plored, but during the past year the egg
hunters made regular trips to the island,
and each time not only plundered the
nests OF the fresh eggs, but also de-
stroyed all eggs partially incubated
and unfit for use This action prom
ised humiliation of the colony within
a year or two. At the time the egg hunt
ing was most active other parties In
augurated a movement to secure title
to the island for resort purposes. This
effort, If 1t had been successful. would
have resulted IN destruction of the
breeding colony. as complete and af-
most as soon as the egg hunters would
have accomplished that end so that the
creation of the reservation is said to be
extremely opportune
The National Association OF Audubon
societies has placed wardens In charge
OF each of these reservations. and the
slaughter of the birds and piundering OF
their nests has been stopped.

other that could have been made,

dinner.

All she wants is handful OF salt, a
couple of pods of long red pepper
that has been suspended from the raj
ters of her cabin home since last win

Don't worry or trouble about what
she does to that possum- just loosen
