HONORABLE BOBBY
HELPS COURT|ERS
Saves Them Money In Style
of Attire.
LORD CHAMBERLAIN
As Lord Alrhorp, Former Mr.. Spencer
Makes Hit With Theories of
Retrenchment.

LONDON. March SI.-The Hon. Bob
by Spencer. whose sartorial accom-
plishments were so sadly wasted in the
house Of commons. has speedily justified
his appointment as lord chamberlain.
The functionary has charge of the
Kings household above stairs" and
the Office is considered such an exalted
ore that only peers of the realm can

There are not many Liberal peers and
They are not the kind of men who take
serious view OF fiunkeyism. Unable

and politics qualified him for the job
Sir Henry Campbell Bannerman. the
new Liberal prime minister. had pat
ent of nobility conferred on the Hon.
Bobby" and gave him the billet as
Lord Althrop.
Changes in Regulations.
To prove himself fitting representa-
i've of a government which is pledged
10 retrenchment and reform. the en-
nobleG Bobby has announced sundry
changes IN the sartorial regulations of
the court, the net result of which is
10 reduce the number of separate gar
ments which the privileged courtier IS
required TO purchase in order 20 be en-
titled TO appear before the King
The dress coat heretofore worn i'm the
evening by the gentlemen OF his majes-
tvs household has hitherto been dis
tinguished by two gilt buttons upon
each cuff, whereas the coat that goes
with what is known as the Windsor
uniform 1ad three. Thanks to Bobby
the two styles of coat are now practi-
cailly identical, with three buttons upon
each sleeve. one Of which must be above
the cuff and two on il. Then again the
Windsor uniform were worn plain. while
those of The brooches worn at the other
royal palaces were covered by tie ends
of black ribbon. Bobby" has ordained
thai these ribbons shall be removed
with the result that the same pair of
breecnes will pass muster at any OF the
palaces.
Saves Courtier's Expenses.
Nor is this all that Bobby" has eff
fected. He has saved the courtier the
necessity of buying two waistcoats 10
go with TIE Windsor uniform by de-
creeinG that a single-breasted garment
OF white marcella shall be "de rigueur''
for both morning and evening wear
From all of which IL is evident that
Bobby" IS doing something to earn
his salary OF $4,000 a year by saving
money for other people. But the court
I2llors are complaining wOeflIIly

HIS METHOD OF REFORMING
Entertains Them in Hall So Well
They Keep Coming Back
Until Decent.

LONDON. March 3l.-Of all the meth
DDS used to rescue drunkards in England
none Is more curious than that used by
the Rev. DIR. Stanley Parker and GER
tainly none is more feared or hated by
the owners of cheap saloons.
DR.. Parker. who is q Methodist min
lister. every third Sunday forms what
he calls drinkers convention" at
Plumstead, where he is The beloved pas
tor OF an admiring congregation.
Il always begin my convention by or
ganizing street parade" he said the
other day. 1T is headed by a brass
band and as soon as we have gathered
a crowd we begin round OF all the
saloons in the town. starting about an
hour before they close.
As we march along. the crowd swells.
attracted by the printed invitations to
attend the convention, which we spread
broadcast. Most of the men who leave
the saloons TO follow me do so with the
intention OF starting a rough house.
Many OF them who are half drunk are
often in a very ugly mood.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1906-04-01
Nobody Every Put Out.

Il then march them IN somewhat dis
ordered array to Plumstead Central
Hall No matter how unruly they are,
NOBODY is ever put out | tell them
that they are the choir and that they
may sing whatever they like The re-
suit il invariably the most earsplitting
dissonance. but il gives them the vent
they want for their turbulent spirits
Now 'Parker's new choir has become
an institution at Flumstead. and am
proud to say that il has worked won
ders among drunkards.
MANY OF them bring their dogs along,
which sit on the platform and add their
bowling 10 the general cacophony. When
the maudlin noise subsides-as il always
does after a very short time-we get to
the business OF the convention. / never
preach to these people, that would he
worse than useless. but 1 simply try to
entertain them.
ct show them appropriate cinemato-
graph pictures. which teach a moral
and are exceedingly useful. tell them
stories and crack jokes obvious enough
for their blunted perception to- grasp
They enjoy themselves and corse again
and again. and l have reformed some
OF the worst drunkards and most motor
ious criminals in WoolWich by touching
the humanizing chords IN their nature

Remarkable Story of
Spaniard's Weird
Mjshsp.

A couple of months ago a man was
picked UP at the foot of the mountains
which extend on the left hand side of
the road leading to the Pail. Some
boys living near the Halfway House
heard his cries for help and found him
in an almost lifeless condition. He
was taken to the hospital where he
has been until quite recently, an in
jury to his thigh necessitating his de-
tention.
For two days and nights the unfor-
tunate man had lain in the lantana
with nothing to eat or drink and ex-
chill night rains. In his crippled condi-
tion he had attempted to win his way
to the nearest habitation, some half a
mile away. but had not succeeded in
making more than a hundred yards
headway. The thorns of the lantana
had torn his clothes to tatters and had
scratched his skin pitifully.
