famous state opera at Venice.
Miss Lawrence. who is only twenty
three years old, made her debut few
years ago at the Metropolitan opera

must have shaken the confidence in ali
sturdy souls who believe in the whole
hog policy, and If she consents TO travel
on the Great Western and South East
ern systems she might as well buy a
meal or even an umbrella in our
midst"
Another paper says: We wonder
how far the purposed boycott of Eng
lish goods is to extend. Will she per-
suade the golden youth OF the L. S. A.
not to buy what we believe they call
their vests and pants in this country?
Can she induce them not to turn up
their pants at the ankles because of
the legend that exquisites Of Pail Mall
and Bond street do' Will she succeed
in causing the young women Of the
United States to turn up their lovely
noses at the titled but impecunious
gentlemen of British origin who q
wooing go in search of wives and dol
lars?"
In more serious vein is the following
comment:
1T is interesting 10 see such an at
tempt made TO influence the policy OF
the nation The government is told that
lady belonging TO another land does
not approve of what they are doing
or objects to the fact that they ere not
doing something. and neither she nor
her friends will visit the land to do
business with II until the policy is
changed In accordance with her de-
sires. To reply that we do not cara
would be rude, and yet It would not do
TO shape our policy simply to induces
Mrs. Belmont and her friends TO buy
bonnets here or to stay at our hotels.
The complications of foreign politics
grow more bewildering every day. On
the one hand we are told the Germans
are coming; on the other Americans
threaten not to come. Which is tina
greater danger we cannot say

London. April 26.-The approach OF

cussing the feature of her sailing on the
