Intermountain Catholic: The odors
arising from our Investigations have
reached across the Atlantic and have
given the people Of England q taste for
reform, with the peerage first to be
probed. Some n has discovered that
s or 8 per cent Of the whole baronetage
is bogus. adulterated. short weight or
something wrong. and it is believed
most Of the other "a or 95 per cent is
impure or embalmed. This thing
should be sifted to the bottom. for
when our Spring crop Of wealth aud
beauty aud youth buds forth at the
Summer resorts we want no bogus
barons to carry of our prizes. Ameri-
can title hunters should assist in hunt
ing out the spurious from the genuine.
and there seems an Opportunity for a
title-guaranty company in Britain.

Rough and Ready Orator
The man who occupies the seat of
John O. Calhoun in the Senate of the
United States is as rough and ready in
his language and appearance as he has
been painted. He is of more than me-
dunn height and is well built. A massive
head with thick gray hair. sits on a
short neck. The shout lers are broad
and massive, and their owner has every
appearance of a muscular man. The
left eye is sightless and closed; the
right is dark aud piercing. The
mans gestures are uncouth and awk-
ward; his speech is ready, but is re-
plete with idioms and ungrammatical
expressions. He has a fund of humor,
an over supply of vituperation, a small
supply of occasional eloquence. and a
magnetic personality that attracts his
audience and holds it until he has
spoken his last word.

There Are 100000 In America.
Professor Brander Matthews, who
submitted report at the recent meet
ing Of the national si1nplified spelling
board In New York. declared that at
least 100000 converts to simplified
spelling have been made in this coun-
try since the movement was started
few months ago. He pointed out that
the 300 shorter forms recommended by
President Roosevelt have been adopted
by the city school superintendent OF
New York and arc being used also by
some magazines and newspapers. IL
literary men, he said, We're as willing
to adopt the reformed spelling as men
of science have shown themselves to
be. the new form would prevail
throughout America in short time.
Andrew Carnegie. who was chosen
president Of the board, read a letter
from James Bryce. the British ambas-
sador at Washington. in which that
distinguished writer said:
"Speaking in no sense officially,
may say that have long felt that the
time must come when those who use
the English language will have serious
" to consider the necessity of bringing
our spelling into close accord with pro-
nunciation. Sooner or later tho ques-
ton must he faced. What particular
reforms to propose is doubtless mat
ter requiring much thought and pro-
longed discussion, but we cannot be-
gin too soon to consider the subject Sc
riously, for it will take great deal OF
time and pains"
