BILE houses? Maybe they are too mean and
do the town an injustice. But pleasuring
in itself is not important yet In American
eyes, and only gathers responsibility in
the measure in which 1t constitutes the
recreation of people whose energies are
considered to be worth recruiting. More
over, the pleasurng of Newport has come
to seem tainted with the same defect that
Is so prevalent in all American sport 1t
seems little too professional. Some OF
the players in the game are not out for
mere joy, but seem to have an eye ior
Interior emoluments.
Others make the game the whole bus
mess of their lives, and are not properly
to be classed with amateurs who only
find in it a temporary avocation. Is 1t
not. like football somewhat too earnest
and laborious an exercise, ana dencient
in that forgetfulness of self which Is
indispensable to profitable recreation?
Surprising that we are not disposed,
when we get our money. to spend 1t on
a house and a garden in Newport, what
is the basis of that indisposition, and
where Is the place that we shall prefer
TO put down roots? Somewhere, ! judge,
where either the work that goes on Is
more important, or the rest Is more conf
plete; somewhere where 1t is easier to
shane ones Individual or family life ac-
where where there is more room and
fewer formalites. 10 the eye of the OBJ
server from the outside there seems to
be not enough real sustenance in New
port society to pay for keeping ones coat
on in hot weather. and taking ones din
ner in a starched collar and boiled shirt.
To be exposed to the influences of nature
is considerably healing to the spirit, even
II nature wears as many ruffles as she
does-say on st. Regis Lake. To keep In
touch with inspiring people Is also worth
while, but two or three such people are
as good as fifty. But to keep in touch
with the formalities of life and all its
modern improvements seems hardly
suitable end to spend ones summer
strength on. For a summer or two one
might venture it Just to acquire new
knowledge but putting down root in soil
devoted to that sort of crop is different
matter.

During the trip under discussion, by the

Headquarters for Summer High Life In
This Country.

"Junius' in Harpers Weekly.
Viewing 1t dispassionately the worse
defect of all about Newport is that it Is not
very important Tow the court end of it
off shore and sing 1t with all it's palaces
and as many of its inhabitants as happen
ed to be at home, and though the world
would gasp and gulp and shudder, 1t
would spin on just the same, and the main
resulting difference, besides personal be-
reavements, would be some changes IN
bookkeeping. That is true of many places,
but that it should be true of Newport Is
somewhat notable. because, to look at
Newport, you would think 1t was impor-
tant But it isn't; not very. A little
more important than Cottage City, per-
haps, though Cottage City has claim to
religious efficiency that it could hardly
rival. 1t is not related by any indispensa-
BILE bonds to what is going on in our brisk
country. 1t has very little indeed to do
with government, and not very much to
do with business. 1t does not seem to
foster liteature nor art. being too dear q
place for the arts to thrive in. 1t fosters
cooks and buffers, grooms and motor-men,
yacnt-slSppers, mllliners and material
minded mammas, and millionaires.
Are not these mean things to say about
the pretty summer city with Its Hospital

ONCE AN EMPRESS
Charlotte of Mexico Now Living Quiet
iy In Belgium.
From London Truth.

From London Truth
The health of the Archduches Char
lotte, ex-Empress of Mexico, has taken
a favorable turn She is now in her
sfxty-first year, and seems to have en-
tered haven of rest and peace. 1t APP
pears that she suffered from inflam-
nation of the neurons and of cells in
different localities of the brain. The
neuronitis rendered the remembrance
of many circumstances of her life mad
dening and convulsing, and brought on
those crises from which she has not
for some time suffered. The King of
the Belgians, who is, of course, her
guardian, visited her for about an hour
short time ago, in the course of
which she chatted quietly and coher-
emily, or almost so. She is five years
younger than Leopold. Should she out
live him. her great fortune will go to
his daughter in equal shares of the
half and the other half to the three
children of the Comte de Flandre, also
In equal shares. This will come to

estate of Macmillan, who was deeply
in debt before he set out ON his Mexi-
can adventure.
Charlotte has lived for nearly forty
years at Bouchot, rather common

ing ground near Brussels. The park

with sluggish and unsavory water, but
still not an unhealthy place. The late
Queen of the Belgians chose 1t because
its distance from Laeken admitted of
her paying a daily visit to the mad
princess. She discharged this duty
with faultless regularity and with more
softness of manner than might have
been expected When at Ostend or
| Spa the visits became weekly except
when crisis was reported to her. The
establishment at Bouchot resembles a
small beguinage. 1t is composed of
elderly maiden ladies who before 60
ing there had experience of patients
queer In their heads and of profess
sional female servants. A major in
the Belgian army, elderly but able
bodied, acts as equerry to the ex-Em-
press and gentleman in attendance.
OF course, he is more OF less of the
warder, but she does not know it.
Neuronitis comes of some hereditary
damage to the blood, and accidental
circumstances bring it out. The ex-
ceptonal situation of Charlotte after
her mothers death fostered morbid
causes. She soon determined to reign
at her fathers court, and after her
marriage felt contempt for her situa-
ton of archduchess. She dreamed of
becoming Queen of Italy when Maxi
milan served the Emperor of Austria
as governor general of his Italian
states. La folie des grandeurs, from
which the first Leopold had never been
wholly free, first took hold of her in
Milan. BY the time Napoleon III Of
fered the empire of Mexico to the arch
duke, Charlotte was ripe for any adj
venture that promised a crown, while
Macmillan had his creditors and
wanted to get away from duns.
