Dear Madam: l am a young man
about to butt into society. In other words,
/ am going to be married. I have never
been married before nor seen anybody else
being married. How much shall l give
the minister? Would it be proper for me
to wear a bicycle suit? What time shall
get to her house and where shall / go
when 1 get there? I have been much
troubled over these questions, and am
afraid to ask my friends for fear they
will laugh at me. WILL.
''P. Scan you get me a pass for self
and wife to Chicago?"
Now, Will, do not get nervous over
the step you are about to take. Keep
a cool head and you will come out all
right.
Your fee to the minister depends
upon your circumstances, but | would
not give him less than quarter. If
you can afford five dollars, do so-but
do not give 1t to him in nickels. Such
display would be vulgar.
1t would not be considered improper
for you to wear a dress suit at your
wedding. 1t seems to us 1t would be
preferable to the bicycle suit. Under
no circumstances wear a sweater.
Evening clothes may now be hired
quite reasonably and are much worn
by smart society.
Do not reach the brides house be-
fore sun-up If it is to be an evening
wedding. Upon arriving do not clut-
ter up the rooms with your presence,
but go at once to the cellar, whore
you will remain cool and collected un-
til you are needed.

brought line between his eyebrows.
Don't you Ike it here? Are yo,l

reased.
II don't wish to nonopolize you,"
she said with small sigh.
Il guess I'm doing the monopolizing,"
he laughed. "Of course, if you're
tired of me-"
1t really began to look little more
promising. She glanced at him
through mist of blown hair; and the
spirit of the game once more stirred
within her.
"You like being out here with me?
Sure thing. Couldn't be better"
Suppose it were Mary Madison
what would you talk to her about?"
'Oh, some girls always want to go
on about love and how long it lasts
and if you can get it twice in the
same spot-you know the sort of
thing. That's why you are so jolly TO
go about with-one can have some
sensible talk with you. You're inter
ested in real things,

in her voice did not reach him.
"Of course. Look, there's that boat
again. It's Harrison's all right can
tell by the rigging. See if you can
see where it is different from ours"
She looked back at the softly followed
spread of canvas behind them and
shook her head hopelessly.
Il can tell the difference between
you and Fred Harrison, though" she
suggested.
"Oh, you can!" A faint, faint glim-
mer of resentment brought new life
to her face.
"Yes; he wears red neckties."
$50 that's it, is it," He was almost
sulky.
"Yes. And Mary Madison says he's
a terrible f1irt. But then"-with a
sigh-"she also said that about you"
What rot!" But he was smiling.
She was not above revenge:
Yes, wasn't iti'
The smile disappeared. "Oh, l sup

one else if have to- he said rather
coldly. She leaned towards him, and
her voice was mischievously small:
And when do you have to?' The
chances it gave him!
'Oh, some girls are always expect

like yon, of course. Silly ones" The
light left her face.
"Of course one doesn't want to be

''Look, Farrison's coming about"
he interrupted. Nov l can show you

her eyes cbediently on the other

thorough. The tenor voice scared out

with touch of sharpness.

Ancient English Laws.

In the past, If one Englishman called
another a liar there was something to
pay. The seventeenth century mayor,
sheriff and city grandees generally
were keen on this point of etiquette.
The direct accusation cast II shillings
six pence ($2.76); the subtle hint, six
shillings eight pence ($1.60. And
there was reduction on repititons.
Swearing, too, was promptly sup
pressed. In 1850 law was passed
laying down the penalty for the first
offense. The fines were graduated.
That for a lord was 80 shillings
t$7.20), for an esquire ten shillings
(s2.40), while all inferior persons"

ratify the foreign loan of $27 500, 0OO

the representations made by the Amer
lean ambassadors In London, Paris
and Berlin will result in arrangements
being made in Europe for American
participation in the loan. 1t has been
reported at Washington that Willard
D. Straight, consul general at Muk-

TO INVESTIGATE
HAWAIIAN RAID
WASHINGTON NOT INFORMED
oErJAPANESE TROUBLE
Treaty with Japan Provides Dwellings,
Warehouses and Shops of Citizens
in Territory of Each Must
Be Respected
tBx Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, June 15.-Although
no official information has reached the
state department in regard to the Jap
anese trouble in Hawaii, the situation
is being watched in order that those
responsible for the policy OF the de-
partment may act promptly.
If M. Negoro of the editorial staff of
the Japanese publication, Jill, has ap-
pealed to the Japanese foreign office
on the ground that his treaty rights
were violated by the territorial author
tiles raiding his office last Friday,
Toxic has not taken the matter up with
the officials at Washington. Neither
has the state department received re-
ports on the situation.
If it is shown finally that the raid on
the Jill occurred, as described In the
press dispatches, the state department
probably will take the position that
Negoro's remedy lies in the courts.
The treaty of 1894 with Japan pro-
vides that the dwellings, manufactures,
warehouses and shops of the citizens or
subjects of each of the high contract
ing parties in tbs territories of the
other, and all premises appertaining
thereto, destined for purposes of resi-
dence or commerce, shall be respected.

ARREST ARE FREED

HONOLULU, June 15.-The four Jap
anese editors offa local paper and sew
eral others of the seventeen Japanese
arrested last Saturday and yesterday
on indictments growing out of the strike
of the sugar plantation laborers were
released on bail today and their pre-
liminary hearings were set to COM

The situation remained practically
unchanged today. No attempt was
made by the striking laborers to. inter
fere with such of their countrymen as
have returned to work. Many confer
ences were held during the day be-
tween the delegates from bodies of
strikers from various parts of the ISL
ands, but what the object of a general
meeting held or what plans the strike
leaders have agreed upon has not been
made known.
While the feeling among the JAP
anese, of whom between 5000 and 5000
are still out, is tense because or the
arrest of some of their leaders. they
have carefully refrained from any un-
toward act that would give the author

MRS. CLEVELAND
FIRST WITNESS
WIFE OF FORMER PRESIDENT
IN BRANDENBURG CASE
Declares She Never Authorized Any
One to Write to New York Times
to Say Name on Article
Was Genuine
(By Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, June 15.-With Mrs.
Frances Folsom Cleveland, widow of
the late Grover Cleveland, widow of
witness, the trial of Broughton Brand
enburg, the magazine writer, on
charge of grand larceny, began in the
supreme court today.
The charge grew out of the sale of
newspaper article which Brandenburg
is alleged to have disposed of to a
newspaper on the representation that
former President Cleveland was the
author. Mrs. Cleveland afterward re-
pudiated the article.
Mrs. Cleveland, accompanied by H.
S. Hastings, one of the executors under
Mr.. Cleveland's will, arrived at the
criminal courts building early. She
was dressed in deep mourning. Her
testimony was expected to be taken
as soon as the jury was completed
Mrs. Cleveland this afternoon on the
witness stand was shown the alleged
signature of Grover Cleveland attached
to the article said to have been written
by him, and declared 1t was false.
Jury Secured Quickly
Counsel for the defendant asked the
talesmen If the fact that the article
on which the charge is based was po-
litical, written during the last cam
paign ana favorable to one Of the can
didates (Mr. Bryan), would influence
their opinions or prejudice their minds.
The work of selecting the jurors pro-
crossed rapidly and the jury box was
filled before noon.
Assistant District Attorney Mott
said the state would show that Brand
enburg waited until Mr. Cleveland died
before he attempted to sell the article
purporting to have been signed by Mr..
Cleveland.
Counsel for the defendant made a
motion to dismiss the indictments on
the ground that the facts as set forth
therein did not constitute the crime or
grand larceny. Justice Fitzgerald de-
MED the motion and announced that
Mrs. Clevelands testimony would be
heard in the afternoon session.
On cross examination Mrs. Cleveland
denied that she ever authorized Mr..
Hastings to write the New York Times
and say that the signature on the dis
puted article was genuine. Mrs. Cleve-
land was then excused.
c. M. Lincoln, Sunday editor of the
New York Times, followed Mrs. Cleve-
land. He testified that he had received
the "Grover Cleveland" article from
Brandenburg about a week before 1t
was published, August 80, 1905. He
stated Brandenburg had seen him and
talked with him about the article a
few days before that.
Rrandenburg had showed him a copy
Of the article, witness said, and told
hin, If was one of three Mr.. Cleveland
had promised to write early in the
year bearing upon the campaign, but
that illness had prevented Mr.. Cleve-
land from writing more than the one.

asperation. Katherine Clemmons Gould
sat through trying ordeal in the su-
preme court today at the continuation
of her suit for separation against

1t was a day of testimony for the de-
Tense, during which Mr.. Gould's attor-
ney sought to bring out that Mrs,
Gould's habits were such that her hus-
band was justified in leaving her.
In the event of proving this, the de-
Tense hopes to undermine the charge or
abandonment, the only phase of hope
of the defendants case that has with
stood the attacks of the opposing coun-
sci, Justice Dowling having ruled out
the charges of cruelty and non-support.
Mrs. Gould having naively told yes
terday what is required of a woman or

Beach and elsewhere, witnesses for the
defense recited today the indulgence OF

versations not in keeping with $500
