LONDON, May 20.-The Duke
of Argyll formally opened the i'm
perial international exhibition at
bush today. A splen-

The recent action of the coun-
Gil In ordering all street signs re-
moved which are not electric signs
and operated until 1880 O'Clock

it will provide stringent regula-
tions for street signs and will give
the city authority for regulating
them. 1t will probably be ready

few American actresses would be

repeat.
Nazimova, with her entire New

also put in this class the Sons of Am

The bishop made these remarks in
a sermon at st. Bartholmew's Epis-

American people for what he termed
their false patriotism.
We affect democratic simplicity
and appear to despise pride in aristo-

them clean, he said. He diagnosed
latter day troubles as follows:
"This false patriotism of idle pride
in our past and blind confidence in
our future has so possessed the pop
ular mind that he who ventures to
criticize our national character
makes himself a prey of popular fury
and scorn. The greatest need of Am
