SIMPLIFIED SPELLING TALK
British Press Continues to Find Fault with
Action Of President.
sRANDNERMATTHEws WRITES ON suBIER1
London Times and other Newspapers
still Take Matter Seriously
and Andrew Carnegie Adj
vances an Opinion.

LONDON. Sept. &.-(Specal Cablegrsm
to The Bee.)-The English still continue
to discuss with the greatest interest Presi-
dent Roosevelt's position in the matter of
spelling reform. Says the London Times
in an editorial leader:
1--WE appear to be threatened with u
revolution in the matter of spelling at the
hands of that sturdy iconoclast. Mr.. Roose-
welt. whom perhaps we must henceforth
accustom ourselves to recognize under
some such form as "Rusevelt;" Mr. An
drew Carnegie. whose Christian name must
surely hereafter be spelt "Andru," and
Prof. Brander Matthews, who will appar-
emily have to part with a superhuous 81"
in his surname. The last named, who is
a well-known professor at Columbia uni
versity, is also the head OF sImplihed
spelling board which has issued a pre-
liminary list of 800 simplihed spellings
This board enjoys the financial support
OF Mr.. Carnegie, who, having founded In
Vulnerable free libraries. now seeks to do
all he can to render their contents OBJ
scure by making their spelling uniformly
obsolete. Yet the weight of usage might
still have resisted for some time longer
the reforms of Prof. Matthews and the
gold of MIR. Carnegie. but for the action
OF the third and most important person
os0 III NihS ieNoiullondIy tfluInNirdte, the
president of the United States"
The London Times also expressed re-
gret that the president had thrown the
weight of his powerful personality in favo,
OF this movement without consulting any
one on this side of the water Replying
to this plant Brander Matthews. in a COM
munication written in New York, said:
You have expressed a regret that no one
on your side or the Atlantic has been CON
reproach will not lie against our future
recommendations. Desiring to express their
sympathy with our aims. DR.. Murray and
Mr.. Henry Bradley, the editors OF the Ok
ford dictionary; Prof. Skeat. the editor Of
the Psychological dictionary, and DR.
dictionary. have accepted election to the
board: and We shall be able hereafter to
consult with these distinguished British
scholars. Perhaps II may be well 10 note
that the board numbered among It's orig

most important American dictionaries II
may be doubted whether any board could
be selected which should be animated by

Mr.. Carnegie himself replies TO the Lon
don Times as follows
Our aim Is not TO destroy the Language
/ of Shakespeare and Milton. but 10 con-
tinue and, II possible 10 hasten its further
development, that II may become a more
and more efficient Instrument. II has ad-
mittedly become such since the great mas

SHANGHAI, Sept. 2s.-Cspecial Cable
gram 10 The Bee,)-A correspondent OF
the North China Herald describes how
the Kuangchi mandarin tested the virtue
OF his watchmen.
Dressing himself poorly to represent ii
thief, the mandarin left his yamen at
night. At one gate the watchman refused
to let him pass, so he gave him a bribe,
and was allowed TO go through. At the
next gate the watchman refused the bribe.
and took the mandarin to the yamen.
where his identity was disclosed.
Next day the mandarin sent for the two
men, gave the faithful one a reward, and
sent the other to be caned.
