SOCIAL SPONGlNG.
The Extent to Which It IL Carrie,

The Extent to Which 1t IL Carried
In London.
There is probably no city in the
world where there is so much social
sponging done as in London. At their
big functions hosts and hostesses have
frequently not the remotest acquaint-
ance with many Of the people who at
tend them and whose cheek is only ex-
ceeded by their voracity. II have one
particular case in memory" says a
writer in the Boston Herald, where a
woman brought fifty Of her friends.
It was at the house Of a millionaire.
the Hon. Glin Vivian, in Eaton square.
On the same occasion nearly every one
else brought herself. her family and
all her friends. 1t was a never to be
forgotten gathering. Many people new
er succeeded In getting beyond the hall
door. An excellent supper had been
provided for about three or four hun
dred. but there must have been a thou
sand present About ! a. m. people
were sitting about in the bedrooms eat
ing sandwiches and drinking claret or
champagne in fact, anything they
could grab from the supper table-and
the story went that they got 50 hungry
and riotous that they invaded the wine
cellar and the larder."

But In their own section they are by
no means to be described by that term.
They are regulars. They are in con-
troll. They have the body OF the party
behind them. And they are not only
leaders but representative men, who
stand for the sentiment and opinion of
their party. Whether they can swing
the national organization as against
the powerful, protected interests, re-
mains to be seen. But that, plainly,
lis what they have set out to do
Before the Winona speech in defense
of Tawney that was not SO well real
lied. The question when brought up
clearly before the people, was decided
in favor OF the Insurgents, not alone
by the people all over the West. but all
over the country.
1t will have the effect of strengthen
ing the desires of the people all over
the United States for real representa-
ton The time is coming when the
insurgents will be called "regulars''-

lawed Outlaws of the peoples max

Items Gathered in
From Far and Near
Popular Paragraphism.

From the Jacksonville Times-Union.
This is the day of the paragraph.
History is turned out in tabloid form
for popular assimilation. Sense and
nonsense are most enjoyed in para
graph, and the people clamor for pub
lie speeches built on vital, meaty par
agraphs. The idea is such a favorite
now that ministers who want to
please, instruct and, incidentally, to
save, are sermonizing in paragraphs
Of slight duration. Public speakers
try to make hit within the ten-min-
ute limit, and heroes in plays make
love systematically. If life is an cpl
gram, as some wise man would have
us believe, the talk of life cannot be
made short enough. In America,
where we never have time, it is as
well to be amused, entertained, in
structed, sermonized and saved with
in a ten-minute space. Otherwise We
would miss these essentials, and what
would become of us? In dear old Eng
land a few venturesome spirits have
a mind to wake the public to that
fact. In fact, it has gone so far as to
stir that most slow of all slowly NOV
ing bodies, the house of parliament.

Preach Origin Of "Save the King
The British national anthem is Of
French origin. The Petite Republique
asserts that the words Of God Save
the King are a literal translation OF a
hymn in honor Of Louis XIV, chanted
by the young girls in residence at the
convent Of st. Cyr.
The French words of this hymn were:
Grand D.eu, sauvez le roi!
Grand Dteu. vengez le roi!
Vfve lie roll
Que. toujours glorieux-
Louis victorieux.
Vote 6eS ennemi2.
Toujours soumis.
Tie music Of this chant was copied
during his visit to France by Handel,
who on his return to England dedicated

One Way to Pay Debts.
From the PHILADELPHIA Ledger.

r TONI Tue fullduelpuld ACuScI.
The ethics of some foreign noble
men with regard to the ways and
means Of satisfying their creditors
are widely at variance with the &C.
cepted procedure of honorable Ameri-
cans. The Duke de Chaulnes married
a wealthy American girl, and upon
their arrival in Paris they found
themselves besieged by the clamorous
multitude OF money-lenders. Word
had gone forth that the bride was
wealthy, and the hint to the usurers
and land sharks was sufficient to
make the honeymoon a painful exper-
fence of lodging the servers Of war
rants and writs of attachment. 1t
now appears that the new American
Princess OF Braganza is having a sim
liar disconcerting experience. The
Portuguese pretender had borrowed
enormous sums Of money at usury and
his creditors have decided that with
the arrival of his rich American bride
in Austria the eagerly awaited day of
reckoning has come for themselves.
The princely incognito is of no avail.

These statements may be regarded
as practically, if not absolutely. true.

to establish, in connection with the

Prosperity.

Prosperity! Prosperity! You're with
us once again:
The gold is shed in bundles by the
trees along the lane
The pumpkins like a nugget to be
melted into wealth
That makes for sociability and happi-
ness and health.
The apples in their opulence so gener-
ously sweet,
The nuts that scatter luxury profusely
at our feet,
The flutter Of the partridge and the
rabbit in the field
Proclaim good times with satisfac-
ton great and unconcealed.
1t is written by the sunshine in its
tracings on the bay.
In characters that shift and change,
but read the same old way:
It's echoed in the frosty wind-a roll
licking refrain,
prosperity. Prosperity. You're with
us once again."

PLAN FOR DECREASE
Concerted Action to Reduce
Hardness in the Public
Schools.
RULE HAS BEEN ADOPTED

concerted effort will be made Nv
all OF the school authorities of the
county to decrease hardness. likewise
absence. The agitation has been be-
fore the city school officials for
number of years and they have been
rewarded for their efforts. especially In
the high school. where Hardness has
been reduced considerably over what
it was three or four years ago.
The trustees Of the different town
ships Of the county. who are the heads
Of the school system In their respect
i've townships. have adopted rule that
hereafter all cases of absence and tar
diness must be excused by q note from
the parents. Several Of the trustees
have had such q rule In operation
since the opening Of the term. Sew
eral amusing situations have arisen
because the parents felt that 1t was
waste of time to explain their chill
dren's absence or Hardness.

The PlantAasnets.

A lowering English shrub, the broom
plant, is called in French ''plantage-
nesta." From it the kingly family OF
Plantagenet took its name. 1t is said
to have been first used as a badge by
them because the Count of Anjou had
himself scourged with its branches
The name was taken by Henry H..
king Of England, in 1854. he being the
son Of Godfrey Of Anjou, who wore in
his helm a spray Of the broom when he
started for the Holy Land. The best
known OF the Plantagenets was Rich
ard l.. king OF England, called the
Lion Heart"

Secret Divorce.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
If it be acknowledged that divorce
is permissible at all, it is a necessary
corollary that it should be for serious
reasons, such reasons as affect socie-
ty in general and not merely the two
persons most interested. If divorce
is to be granted, it should be done op-
emily SO that society may understand
why one OF its most cherished institu-
tions, the one upon which civilization
is founded, is, in the given instance, 4
failure. In no event should a divorce
be granted where children exist save
when it appears that their best inter-
ests as well as those Of society at
large are better served by a rupture
of the marriage bond. 1t is a matter
of the hearthstone and of society, and
not the convenience or desire of two
individuals.

Indianapolis, Ind. Nov. 13,-The
members OF the executive committee
OF the Indiana Brewers Association
met here yesterday afternoon and
worked on their plans for cleaning up
the retail liquor business in Indiana
About two weeks ago the association
sent out letters to retail licensed liq-
uor dealers in the state. impressing up
on them the necessity for obeying the
law and running their places in a law
full manner. 1t was pointed out -
them that unless they were willing TO
do this there was danger that the liQ-
uor business would be wiped out in
the state. 1t was also impressed upon
them that those OF the dealers who
were not willing to do their part in
obeying the law would find themselves
in a bad hole before long.
Plans Are Prepared.
At the meeting yesterday, plans for
made in the letter, were discussed
After the meeting one of the brewers
present said that while the plans were
not yet complete they would be fin
ished in the next two or three weeks
and then they will be given to the pub
lie.
We are going to clean up the sa-
loon business in this state.'' he said.
We mean what We say. and we shall
expect the people to help us to carry
out this purpose. There are but a few
In, hn cto u,h ~
bers of this association. and if they do
not clean up their own business we will
clean it up for them. We intend to
take the brewery out of politics. We
are tired of being political football
for anybody, and We are going to put
a stop to it."
Mean What They Say.
He said the plans were not yet ready
for announcement, but that when they
are completed and made public. the
people will see that the brewers mean
just what they say.
Crawford Fairbanks. the Terre
Haute brewer, is not a member of the
state association. and he was not at the
meeting yesterday. 1t is known that
ne is not IN sympathy with the plans or
the association to clean up the saloon
business in the state and put 1t on a
higher plane. but some of the members
still believe they will be able to get
him to agree to do what the rest do.
But if he does not clean up his bus
mess. we will clean it up for him., -
said one brewer. last night.
What the brewers want is obedience
to the laws of the state. This. they
say. will overcome the constantly
growing public feeling against the sa-
loon. which is caused by the persist
ence of a certain element of the sa-
loon keepers in breaking the law.
At meeting Of Indiana brewers in
Cincinnati few days ago. it is said. an
understanding was reached that no
new saloons would be established in
Indiana during the next two years and
that many Of the disreputable ones
would be rooted out. 1t is said that
when the plans of the brewers for the
cleaning up of the business in Indiana
are made public, this will be included
in the plan of campaign.
