The society sensation of the present
London season has been Mrs. William
b. Leeds, with her wonderful gowns
and jewels. The latter establishment
of the youthful Widows beauty caused
astonlshment, especially when her
wonderful collection Of emeralds was
recently increased. To the well known
tiara and necklace of these stones she
has added a superb stomacher, bought
for $4,000. The emeralds in the pos
session of Mrs. Leeds are estimated by

NO FLAG ABOVE OLD GLORY.
Mr.. Hepburn Offers Two Resolutions
In the Senate,

That no flag, banner or emblem
should be officially permitted to wave
above the stars and stripes is the con-
tention Of Senator Hepburn. He un-
derstands that on forts and battle
ships other ensigns are often elevated
above the national colors.
To ascertain the actual facts Mr.
Hepburn offered two resolutions, which
were adopted by the senate. One is
addressed to the secretary Of the navy
and the other to the secretary Of war.
Each calls for the real situation con
cerning this matter in the army and
navy.
In the opinion Of Mr.. Hepburn, there
should be legislation, If necessary, to
prevent any official Of the government
from displaying any emblem, flag or
banner above Old Glory.

SPIRIT OF THE TIMES

There is a general Impression that
citizens OF the United States spend
too much time in political strife. and
that this strife is due to too numerous
elections But the politicians will see
that there is no reform: indeed. they
are arranging for the people to spend
practically all their time at the polls.
II the recall is a good thing. there Is
no reason why 1t should be limited to
the recall Of judges who render de-
oisions unpopular with S per cent of
the voters. Why should twelve men
he given the right to settle a big
question? Why not let the people de-
eide a sensational murder trial. after
reading the evidence In the newspap-
ers? II will be so easy to widen the
scope OF the recall that can easily
imagine too many elections.
In town I am familiar with. two
rival newspapers have long been
ouarreilng. As soon as one paper
