HOW MALTESE DERBY IS RUN
"Go.as-You-Please" Rules Govern a
Yearly Sporting Event in
That Island.

Horse racing is a favorite sport the
world over but it is doubtful whether
any nation can boast Of a n!Ore unique
race course or claim more remark
able ideas of the sport than. the Nal
tese. Once a year, says Il writer in
the Wide World, the rord skirting
Sliema harbor is reserved as race
course and the people turn ont in thou
sands to back their favorites. There
is no regulation of the course; the
crowd simply clears out Of the way as
the horses come along. The jockeys
ride without brides or saddles and
each carries Il whip in either hand
one for his own mount, the other to
keep back any horse which may try to
overtake him. We saw one Of the
spectators deliberately trip horse by
putting his leg out, at grave risk to
himself. These things, however. in
credible as they may seem to sports
men in this country. are taken as
quite a matter OF course. and conSe-
quently hardly Il year goes by without
Il fatality OF some kind. All things
considered, it is not likely that the
"go-as-you- please" rules OF this Nal
tese derby are likely to commend
themselves TO our turf authorities.

Westminster hall is used as Il vcSti-
bule to the houses OF parliament. but
in it were held some Of the earliest
English parliaments. Edward II and
Richard II were deposed in this his
toric hall. Here English monarchs
gave their coronation festivals. Here
Edward ii entertained the captive
kings, John OF France and David OF
Scotland.
In this hall Charles I was con-
demred to death. Here also Cromwell
in 1858 was saluted with wonderful
enthusiasm lord protector of England.
He wore no kings crown, but he held
Il Bible in one hand and golden scep-
ter in the other. and he was clad in
royal purple lined with ermine. But
only eight years after this great honor
the protectors body was dragged from

REFUSED 10 SERVE. PRINCE
Waiter in London Club Allowed Dis
tinsuished Guest to Remain
Thirsty.

a story is told Of an experience the
late King Edward VII had at the Saw
age club in London, OF which he was a
member.
One evening the then prince OF
Wales took the Grand Duke Alexis to-
the club, after the theater. Shortly
before this there had been some
trouble between the Savage club and
the licensing authorities. 1t seems
that a representative of the latter
called at the Savage club one evening
and, in the rush Of business, was
served with a drink after hours, al
though he was not member.
A summons was issued, ard there
appears to have been a good deal Of
trouble in the matter, and the walters
were warned to be very careful whom
they served.
The prince of Wales and the Grand
Duke Alexis went into the smoking
room, which was empty, and the
prince, after consultation with the
grand duke, ordered two WHISTLES and
sodas.
Il have to ask your name, sir said
the waiter in attendance. Il do not
think ! have seen you before"
"My name is Albert Edward" said
the prince.
The waiter Immediately referred to
the list of members.
Il see an Edwards here" he said,
"but the name Is George, and not AL.

MARRIAGES OF THE. CHINESE
Are No Longer a Dreaded Ordeal
Since Western Methods Have
Been Adopted.

No longer need the poor little Chi
nese girl look forward with dread to
her wedding day, says a writer in the
Strand. Today she can marry the
man she loves and not walk blind
folded into matrimony with the man
who has been chosen as her husband
from earliest childhood. Until the
revolution in China in 1911 it was the
general custom in the East for the
parents to allot their daughters hus.
bands from babyhood, and with the
consent, Of both families huge party
would be given and the children be
considered engaged. But it was not
permissible for either the future bride
or groom to know of the arrangements
made on their behalf. The families
might even drift apart, leaving the
young ones in total ignorance OF the
existence of each other. Between the
ages of fifteen and eighteen the Chi
nese girl was told that she was to be
married soon, and arrangements would
be made for the wedding, but the
young bride never became acquainted
with her future husband till after the
ceremony, when her thick, beautifully
embroidered, but impenetrable veil
was removed. Then would she behold
for the first time the husband to whom
she was tied 'for better or for worse,
knowing that she must resign herself
to her lot and endeavor to live her life
through with a man whom perhaps she
could never like. Many a young Chi
nese bride has been known to attempt
suicide. often attaining her freedom

happy couple enter into their nlatri-
monial compact with open eyes. The
Chinese are gradually adopting our
methods, and the marriage service is
no longer a dreary and almost weird
ordeal. In fact, in the matter of dress,
as we'll as in customs, the Chinese
are becoming very Europeanized.
