eral ministry under General Weyler,
which, however, will be of brief duration,
a stop-gap to allow the conservatives to
form a ministry headed not by Senior
Maura, but by statesman slightly
more liberal, and that Spain Is ready for
a revolution which will break out at the
first favorable occasion.
To the question why Senior Canalejas
should resign when a large body of lib
eral opinion is on his side, Senior Ler-
towns of Spain are liberal, and, indeed.
republican, the small towns and villages
are still under the dominion of conserva-
tive "caciques' fact which does not ap-
parently prevent the whole of Spain
from being ready for revolution"
Little Importance is to be attached in
Spain to the statement on the lips of
political opponent that the governments
days are numbered although these re-
ports are injurious to the country. Spain
requires not ministries of three and six
months, but stable governments of many
years IL any real Roadway is to be made
in the path of reform. Could Senior Can
alejas's government continue for five
years he might be enabled both to unite
and strengthen the liberal monarchial
party, and to carry out some of his nu-
merous projects of social reform. More
over the time would then be more fav-
orable for the return of the conserva-
tives under Senior Maura, since 1t must
become apparent that the feel
ing against the conservative ex-premier
is largely due to ignorance and misrep-
re sentation

SOCIETY IN LONDON
by LADY MARY MANwARING

London, September 10.-(Special)-Th
fact that the Prince of Wales is to be in
vested with his historic title within the
principality has aroused Chester and
Cornwall and the demand is insstent
that he shall be formally invested as
Duke of Cornwall and as Earl of Chester
in the city of Chester. Scotland may also
ask that some at least of the Scottish
titles held by their heir to the throne
shall bring him to the north country for
the ceremony. Thus it is possible, L
might say, that his royal highness may
be the center of attraction in a series of
historic pageants.
The title of Earl Palatine of Chester
is one of the oldest held by the heir to
the throne.
After Norman, ruled as it was by earls
for 167 years, and when John the Scot
died in 1887 without male issue, the earl
dom was seized by the crown. King Henry
III gave 1t to his son, Prince Edward, on
his marriage with Princess Eleanor of
CASTLE, and the new earl-the first of the
royal earls of Chester-made his public
entry into his county palatine, and in its
ancient metropolis received the homage of
his officers and military tenants. scene
in the recent Chester pageant represented
Prince Edwards solemn entry into the
city on July IL 1856. and his being well
coined with much respect and enthusiasm
by a great concourse of mobiles, clergy
and citizens.
The question is already being discussed

NEW PERSIAN SCHEME
FOR WORKING MEN

Paris, September 10-(Special) 1.-The
sum of s1OO,OOOOOO is needed for the next
French budget for the new pension
scheme for working men.
Before the minister of finance left for
short holiday he made 1t known that
he would be grateful to any clerk of the
finance department who would suggest
any possible new tax to bring in the
necessary sum.
N. Cookery, the finance minister, has
just returened to Paris where he found
an enormous list of suggestions await
ing him. Some of these are decidedly
original. Here are few of them:
Bachelors and old maids. all unmarried
people over 30, unless they can prove that
they have proposed marriage twice and
been refused, to pay an annual tax till
they marry.
Pianos.
First-class railway tickets.
says the man who suggests the tax,
being an unnecessary refinement"
Toys.
Plays which have had more than 80
performances. and books after their
first editions
A tax on marriage portions is another
suggestion, but the maddest of them all
is a tax on goldfish, which is suggested
by a man who has been in the finance
department more than 20 years.

EDUCATION OF THE
GIRLS IN TEHERAN

Teheran, September 10.-(Special)- lit is
not surprising that faint ripples of the
Feminist movement should have reached
ardent young Persian Missionaries who
prattle about socialism, old-age pensions
and capital and labor have so far contem-
plated adding to their difficulties by in
viting women to share them; but signs
are not wanting among themselves of a
desire to give their daughters an educa-
ton on European lines.sa Many who have
passed along the streets of Teheran and
watched through the open front of some
shanty the little boys squatting around
their master and droning out verses of
the Koran have perhaps wondered
whether there exist, hidden it may be
from the public eye, similar institutions
for the schooling of little girls. AS a
matter of fact, probably not one girl
out of a thousand 20 years ago ever re-
ceived any education.
Some 80 years ago the American Pres
byterian Missionary society began to take
an active interest in the education of
girls In Teheran. A school was opened
for a dozen American girls and 1t was
for many years the only school of its
kind in the place. The annual enrolment
dld not reach Do, though the girls were
given free tuition. books. food and lodg-
ing. In 1876 the first Moslem was adj
mitted, but it Is only since 1900 that Mo-
homedan girls have been coming with
any degree of freedom. Prejudices were
strong, and 1t was only by paying sur
prise visits that Mohomedan parents
were gradually able to overcome their
attitude of suspicion. Last year, how
ever, 235 girls were enrolled, of whom
100 were Mohomedans, and instead of
everything being given free the patrons
the cost of tuition and stationery. Girls
are admitted at seven years of age. but
it has been found difficult to keep
them for the entire 12-year course. Never
theless. five classes, each consisting of
10 girls, have graduated. and nearly 800
pupils have passed through the school
since its foundation. 1t is not the pur-
pose of the promoters of the school to
denationalize or make converts of their
pupils Their aim is to give them an
education on the lines Of the ordinary
high school and to nculcate European
ideals of womanhood.
During the last year or two the Per-
slams have become awake to the necessity
lines. 1t is stated that there are now
more than so girls school in Teheran.
Several of the Older girls at the American
school are training to become teachers,
and a few of them are already teaching

RED TAPE DOES NOT
GO WITH MINISTER

Paris, September 1o-(Special) 1.-The
present minister of marine, Admiral
Bouse de Lapeyrere, is not used to red
tape. Recently a French engineer sent
model of new torpedo to the de-
partment
The minister ordered the necessary
tests to be made, but was Informed that
he might expect report in six months
time
The minister was astonished. and took
prompt steps to remedy this state of
affairs. He first called together the
committee, and much to their astonish-
ment formally dissolved it.
Then, summoning young officer of
high technical attachments, he ordered
him at once to examine the new torpedo.
and to furnish a detailed report of it
in three weeks.
There is a touch of our own Nelson
about this. Tt reminds one, too, of John
Nicholson, the hero of Delhi, who once
kicked bundle of government regula-
tons across hi9 office, remarking cheer
fully, That's what 1 do with those
things.
