STORY OF THE FOURTH


recalls the oft-discussed Jeffersonian SIM
plcity of Americas provision for its am
bassadors and it's natural effect hitherto on
the London embassy contrasting with II
the remarkable development under MI
Reds influence. The writer says:
Those who have secured cards for the
ambassadors Independence day at home
may feel sure of being entertained with
almost royal magnificence. Like all his
entertainments, 1t will be in striking con-
trast to the extreme simplicity of the Off
cial functions given by previous American
diplomats in London. Never in its history
has the American embassy occupied such
a prominent position as 1t does today under
Mr.. Reid. Its conspicuous social success
during the last two seasons is a personal
triumph for him. The grateful thanks Of
all Americans are due to Mr.. Reid for hav-
ing raised the embassy to its present emf
hence at great personal expense. The list
of brilliant entertainments given at Dor
chester House since his accession is I'M
precedented.
LAS an admirer said the other day: He
has the run of the peera6e,' and despite his
official duties he finds time to entertain
practically all the smart people, to say
nothing of members of the royal family.
Americans who have been fortunate enough
to visit Dorchester House have been awed
and impressed by the splendor of this vice
regal establishment. The house itself Is
one of the most magnificent private resi-
dences in London. and yet the rental paid
by Mr.. Reid-5,oOO guineas (s26,25O)-is
mere trife compared with his total ex
penditure.
His salary of 93,5OO a year ($17 500
hardly pays for the floral decorations for
his state dinner parties. His retinue of
wel-trained servants is the envy of more
than one American multimillionaire who
has been Mr.. Reds guest The household
itself is managed on almost royal lines, the
ambassador having created the novel post
of controller for Mr. William Walsh son of
Lord Ormathwaite
1T is the duty of Mr.. Reds controller
of the household to look after details of
expenditure just as the kings controller
controls the household expenditure at Buck
ingham Palace. A wel-known American
woman, describing a recent visit to Dor
chester House, declared that the splendor
and formalty which characterized the oc-
casiOn could not have been more marked at
a royal dinner party
The writer contends that Mr.. Reds per-
sonal fitness to fulfill the role of a great
society entertainer is shown by the dazzling
success of his social campaign.

PENDANT accepted a bet of 81 from David

sons.
Attorney P. ]. Ryan appeared for the de-
PENDANT. He entered a plea of not guilty
for his client and demanded jury trial.
His client, he stated, had left $500 collateral

Blake was in this city yesterday and
the detective arrested him. During the
hearing today the court was told of the
claim of the defendant that what he had

however, and imposed fine of $50, telling
Blake that he would have to serve two
months in Jail if he did not pay the fine.
