SINS Of SOCIETY"
LONDON'S GOSSIP

LONDON, Sept 14-What is known
as the middle class in London has had
much 10 talk about since the great au-
tumn drama, The Sins Of Society" was
produced at Drury Lane. Arthur Col
Inns. the artistic manage, had only al
lowed certain little details TO leak out
about the plot, but he had a nice row
with the authors, Cecil Raleigh and
Henry Hamilton, concerning the ending
OF the play.
Mr.. Hamilton. who is a very frascible
individual. was determined that the lady
villain should be adequately punished
but Mr. Collins insisted on a happy end
ing, and. OF course. had his way.
It may be mentioned that one OF the
incidents of the play is the placing of
Jumps Of coal IN a box to take the place
OF diamonds This. OF course. is based
on the recent case Of Lord William
NeVil, who is now suffering one year's
imprisonment (nis second conviction for
a fraud on paWnbrOker.
Another very up-tO-date incident in
the Sins of Society" is a freak din
ner, to which all the guests bring their
pet dogs This is based on Newport
ldeas-the freak dinner is only given in
London by certain class of Americans
at the big hotels.

very shabbily treated, and who vii
welcome him back to the center CT En-
glish racing. AR. Croker is bitterly dis
appointed that MS Derby winner OTby
will not be able TO compete for the gTeaI
St Leger race. Orby IS suffering from
an equine form Of diabetes.
Mr.. Croker mas not yet engaged a

AS so many OF the Indians cannot
read the streets In Mexico are named
after birds or beasts. The name Of the
street appears In Spanlsh letters, but
