What About the skeleton?

A strange stiffness had settled over
the garden Of Paris. Each flower
seemed to know that the gay horse
back riders who were accustomed to
gallop along the shady bridal paths,
perfectly grOOmed and conscious OF
their social superiority, were now
riding side by side with their buffers
and Wallets, covered with the dust of
equality and shorn of every outward
mark of distinction. A gentle breeze
swept through the trees, and the
lilacs and roses bowed their heads
as if in prayer for those who had
gone to meet the enemy.
Everywhere we went We met other
Americans who, like ourselves, had
come to realize that spending vaca-
ton in Europe was not such a Won
derful thing after all. 1t was like d
little boy who had excited the envy
of his less fortunate playmates by
exhibiting a large juicy apple and
then finding a worm in the apple.
Actors, of whom l had never heard
word in America, were floating
around bewailing the fact that KlaW
and Erlanger would never forgive
them for not showing up in New
York in time to fulfill their $4,000
contracts. Lawyers, whose landlords
had been after them for years with
corkscrews and all manner of hard
ware, trying to extract the rent, were
sitting in hotel easy chairs worrying
what the great American railroads
would do without their legal assist
ance. Women, whose chief worry
had always been the lack of pins to
hold their North Dakota gowns to-
gether, were growing hysterical over
the fact that they would have to leave
their Paquin and Worth gowns and
Cartier pearls behind them.

THE ILLINOIS PRIMARIES.

In the Illinois primaries on We'd
nesday some notable results were OBJ
tanned. Roger Sullivan was chosen
for democratic candidate for United
States senator by an overwhelming
plurality. Lawrence Y, Sherman was
made the republican nominee for re-
election TO the senate and Uncle
Joe" Cannon was nominated for con-
gress by the republicans OF the
eighteenth district
The results show the vindication Of
Mr. Sullivan who was made the tar
get for utilization and personal
abuse. the Endorsement of Sen Sher-
mans course in the senate by the re-
publicans and the resurrection Of one
time Congressman Cannon. Having
been accomplished by the primary
ballot these results are supposed 10
reflect the untrammeled sentiment OF
the people. in no one case perhaps
more than in another. except by its
preponderance Mr.. Sullivan's victory
is remarkable from this point of view.
He received approximately 10000
votes as against approximately half
that number cast for four other can
didates.
The democracy OF Illinois has
chosen wisely. not only from the side
of availability but OF that Of ability
and character At the same time Mr..
Sullivan is quoted as saying that ne
does not regard his success as a per
sOnal triumph. but rather as "a call
10 public service. a commission from
the democrats Of Illinois TO make
good night in behalf of the policies OF
Pres. Wilson. and in behalf OF
united. aggressive and constructive
democracy"
Mr.. Sullivan's declaration of pur-
pose TO make a good fight in behalf
OF Pres wilson's policies Will COM
mend him to the good will of the
democrats Of Illinois and Of the ma
ton at large. II is a broad minded
statement Mr.. Sullivan is not per-
sonally indebted TO the president. on
the contrary he might find reason for
some apathy in his support OF the
president who rendered him no aid
or encouragement in his campaign
and has not favored him in the distri-
button OF patronage. More than this
Mr.. Bryan was quite openly antago-
nistic-
In view OF these circumstances Mr..
Sullivan's pledge or loyalty TO the
president is the more remarkable and
gratifying and must be received by
the president with great satisfaction.

Mexican peace and readjustment
seem 20 be progressing favorably The
policy OF watchful waiting is about to
resolve its vindication, If reports Of
the amicabie relations existing be-
