Old Books and Values.

Such a sale as that Of the Hoe col
lection, which attracts widespr cad
notice by reason of its spectacula rism
always has the unfortunate effect OF
producing exaggerated ideas among
many people concerning the value of
old books. 1t is hard to explain to
such people when they submit vol
ume a couple of hundred years old.
and are told that it may be worth in
the market anywhere from nothing to
a dollar. how 1t is that some old books
are valueles ss. while others are price,
less. An ignorant Imagination, stimu-
lated by accounts of fabulous sums
readily paid at auction sales for old
books. is not easily convinced that
though the rules of book prices are
sometimes subtle. still there are rules.
And thus. whether the prices at the
big book auctions, are or are not abb
surd. they are certainly productive Of
absurd ideas with people who have IN

LONDON, May %. 1911.
This season promises to revive in
England past glory of France in
several costume balls of startling di-
mensions. There are rumors that the
young Duchess of Roxburghe Miss
May Goelet) has set herself the task
of eclipsing the glories of the famous
fancy dress ball given by the then
regnant Duchess of Devonshire in dia-
mond jubilee year. 1t is certain that
the Shakespeare ball at the Albert Hall
June 20 will stand out even among the
marvellous happenings Of that week. 1t
VIII be one Of the most brilliant sights
or the season. and already the manage
ment are refusing offers of f100 for a
box. The Institute of Painters in Water
Colors have announced their intention
OF giving a great historical costume
ball on the lines of the notable oc-
caslon given by the same institute in
Queen Victorias jubilee year.
Further. the Honorable Society Of
Gray's Inn. famous for being Bacon
residence. is to give in the hall of the
society a bal poudre in June. Several
private costume balls are already an
nounced. and some leading society
hostesses will give period dinner parties
during the next eventful months. Never
since the days of the Georges, in fact
have costume functions been so much
in favor In England.

JOHNSOWS LAWYERS
TO FIGHT JAIL Term

San Francisco. March 21.-Jack
Johnson may escape serving his TWEEN
ty-6ve day jail sentence. but if he does
it is more than likely that it will cost
him nice chunk of the purse he won
by defeating Jim Jeffries to escape
this ignominy.
His release on $500 bail after serv-
ing FIVE and one-half hours in the
county jail for auto speeding is a mere
technicality and it will take some fine
legal maneuvering to convince the
courts that the big colored fighter is
not entitled to all that Police Judge
Treadwell handed him.
The case will be reheard today.
Johnson's lawyers, shut off from ap-
peal because of the fighters plea of
guilty to violating the law, will argue
that the punishment is excessive. But
the law provides for either a Jail SEN
tence or fine, or both, and it looks
though, in the face of Johnson's re-
peated offenses, excessive punishment
will be a hard matter to prove.
In the event of defeat. however,
Johnson may take the case to a high
er court. but all of this means heavy
