The manifold sins of the office boy

Here the girls rebel. and IL is admit
ted that such an assault upon veneer
liable institutions as the spectacle OF a
young lady tearing down Wall street
with letter for steamer scheduled

likely to create a panic in that center
of delicately balanced emotions as an
anti-lailroad speech by President
Roosevelt
The girls We're first tried in the
Ifiling department, where the work had
formerly been done by boys, and
lwere such a success that the head Of
the mailing department, who happens
to be d woman, said she wanted 10 thy
girls TOO. 1t is true that they spent
la little more time in fixing their hair
and adjusting their collars than the
boys We're in the habit of doing, but
that kind OF idling does not disturb a

course what one institution may do Is
only a straw in agale of wind, so TO
speak; but the deposed boys are in

as a serious blow at the very foun
dations of masculine supremacy.

AMBASSADOR BRYCE
SAILS FOR AMERICA
VIII Take Place at Foot of List Ac.
eordine to unwritten Law of Dip.
iomatic Precedence.

Washington, Feb. 13.-James Bryce,
the new British ambassador to the
court Of Uncle Sam. sails today from
England and Is expected to present his
credentials next week. While Mr..
Bryce will take his place at the foot
of the ambassadorial list, according 10
the unwritten law of diplomatic prece.
dence. 1t Is believed that he will not
be by any means last In the esteem
and respect OF President Roosevelt.
The appointment Of a man Of Bryce's
|caliber as the successor Of the staid
and stupidity conventional Sir Mortimer
Durand was a shrewd move on the part
Of the British government. The presi.
dent Is known to be an enthusiastic
admirer of Mr.. Bryce and his literary
work and this knowledge probably
played a great part in his appointment.
The popularity of Baron Won Stern

ing an increased cordiality Of official

There are now nine embassies in

that a number Of comparatively inslg,

nounced their intention of quitting
business and have discharged their g.
900 agents throughout the country.
Liquidating commissioners have been
sent to Puerto Cortez, Honduras, the
headquarters OF the concern, to wind
up Its affairs In that country.
The Honduras Lottery company was
organiZed under a charter granted by
the government of Honduras about fit.
teen years ago and was the successor
of the old Louisiana Lottery company.
The new company had a capital OF &c.,
000,0 900 and the stockholders OF the
Louisiana company received five Of It's
shares for one Of the old. Despite the
fact that It's business was illegal and
necessarily carried on with great So
crecy. the Honduras concern has paid
Its stockholders about 4 per cent on i:s
$10.000,000 capital. In return for the
charter the Honduras government was
paid 2 5000 per year and In addition 3
per cent on the gross income Of the
company, aggregating about 500, 900 a
year. The headquarters of the COM
pany are at Puerto Cortez. Honduras.
and IL was there that the drawings took
place. The company owns a handsome
pavilion and other property there. The
company also own two buildings at
Bay st. Louis, Miss, where the tickets
were made up into packages and the
lists sent out. The company is said u
have kept large balances at New Or
leans banks. the amounts at times ag.
gregating hundreds of thousands of
dollars. The New Orleans officials are
men OF wealth and social prominence
and IL the charges against them are
pushed 1t will likely result in a hard
fought legal battle.
The last drawing was held at Puerto
Cortez on January IL and another was
scheduled for last Saturday. but vas
. called off owing to the raid and the
, decision Of the officials to quit bust
ness. +,
Since 1895. when the a%nti-lottery law
was passed. many other companies
have defied the law and continued to
carry on the illegal business In this
country. The Norwegian and Swedish
companies are alleged to be still en-
gagged In the traffic In lottery tickets
and 1t is rumored that the secret ser
vice agents are now gathering evidence
which will warrant a raid upon their
offices. The Mexican Lottery company.

Much discussion and speculation are going on among politicians Of an alleged plan of certain southern democrats influential in congress, to ask William Jennings Bryan to stand for election on a platform which will repudiate three of the chief things for which he has declared himself the government ownership of rail- roads, the initiative and referendum, and free silver, says Washington writer.
