NEW nAYEN FOMhrEh.

New Haven is a favored place, as we noticed yesterday. We have warships here, while other seaports which want them can't get them The Navy de- partment is receiving numerous re- quests from places along the seacoast for the detail of one or more ships of war to take part in local celebrations Some of these come from seaside re- sorts where the navy forms obviously an attraction to visitors and in some instances the request has no other rea- son for being made than that the navy is to be used in this connection, Sec retary Bonaparte sees all of these re- quests, and most of them have to be unfavorably acted upon, for the reason that there are no ships of the Atlantic fleet which can be spared for this pur- pose. This year the navy has been ex- ceedmgly busy in practical way, and the programme for manoeuVfeS has been unbroken by anything which re- sembles the excursions and frlvolity of other years. It is the policy of the present administration to keep the na- val service keyed up to a standard of efficiency, a sort of perpetual prepared ness for action. This has been accom- plished by prearranged schedule of work which includes the kind of activ- 1 ity in which the navy would be called upon to take part in the event of actual hostilities. All of the exercises require 1 reports from the officers who conduct them, together with suggestions of im- provements in construction and equip ment which will remedy defects and add to the availability of the navy for action in time of war,
 Let us again be thankful that we live in New Haven, which has all the shows that are going.

MR, BRYAN,S SPEECH.

Blow the trumpet, sound the loud tinbrel and let loose such other music as you may have. Brother Bryan will be here to-day, and he should be greet ed heartily and noisily. Also take a little time off and read the speech which he made in New York last night. It is, on the whole, good, fair and temper ate talk. It supports the claim that Brother Bryan is pretty conservative. He would also claim, we suppose, that it shows him to be pretty radical He advocates an income tax, severe deal- ing with monopolistic trusts, and fed- eral or State ownership of railroads, if the people are ready for it. He conl- mends President Roosevelt for looking out for the interests of the people and incidentally stealing Democratic thun- der. He admits that the silver question is no longer worth attention, and points out that all the bimetallists are victori- ous. He puts in some good words for peace, and he makes it plain that with all its faults his native land is good enough for him.
 The speech will make a better im- pression than Brother Bryan's earlier speeches made. There is little in it that can offend anybody but the uncommon and greedy rich, and everybody is jumping on them nowadays.

NOT SO ATH1Erfc 4S SOCIAL.

Here we have been ascribing Wom- ans apparent liking for more or less athletic games to her liking for being athletic, But perhaps we have been mistaken, as usual when ascribing mo- tives for Woman's acts. An English observer says that the fondness of women for athletics is a mere matter of defence. If they want the soci- ety of men they have to follow them to the golf links and the hunting field. No matter how hard men may work op the continent, says this observer, they de- vote themselves to women for a couple of hours every afternoon. Society has it's causeries, men foregather at ''le 5 o'clock" or pay those calls which, when tete-a-tete, so soon ripen into intimacy; and society, in fact, fs the relaxation of the aristoeracy of continental Europe. Tn London it is all different A man works hard, either at business or at sport. Directly the law courts close, the moment the Stock Exchange shuts it's doors, you do not find barristers and city men flying to feminine society Instead, they may be seen tearing off to Lords, to golf on some suburban links, to play polo, or to snatch a few hours on the river When an English man is not bent on money making he is bent on sport, when he is bent on both he is intolerable from the social point of view; in either case he never leaves his business or his sport behind him. A foreigner on being introduced invariably makes it his business to be agreeable to a woman, and to find some topic of conversation in which she is likely to be interested, The English man, after a few preliminary remarks on the weather, falls back on his favor fte .pastime, and whether it be racing, hunting. golf, fishing. cricket, or row. ing. will expatiate on it till the hapless woman listening to him is ready to rend her newest frock in pieces with boredom and despair. That so many women should have taken in desperation to sport themselves is, of course, not to be wondered at. Women are naturally fond of society, and to obtain it will make great sacrifices, If it can be ob- tained only by striding over golf links or pounding across moors they will stride and they will pound with the same tenacity as a man, usually to the extreme detriment of all feminine charm.
 If English women are like this per haps their Yankee cousins are,

There wasn't much Society in San Francisco awhile ago, but a return to something like normal conditions tells another story. It seems that a woman who went out from Washington to aid in the relief work, backed by creden- tials from the War department, was received cordially by the social lights of the city. Now she is on her way East again and Frisco Society doesn't know just what to do, for it has beeh learned that her husband is a colored physician in the national capital. It doesn't make much difference that the doctor has a prastice and is personally and professionally respected by all at home.
