in English Society
In the last issue of Harper's Ba-
Ear appeared excellent pictures OF
Mrs. Bingham and Lady Newbor-
ough, who will be remembered by
many OF the older residents of this
city as the Misses Carr OF Ken
lucky, who were guests a number of
years ago of Mrs. Edward Badger
and her daughters. The following
extract will be interesting reading
for many:
In the conquest of English So
ciety by Americans, these two sis
ters,. Mrs. Cecil Bingham and Lady
Marlborough, are playing interesting
roles. Mrs. Bingham has a charm
ing home in London; Lady Newbor-
ough spends the greater part of the
year at Bryn Llewellyn Festininiog,
the seat of the Marlborough family
in North Wales. Their lives have
held much romance. Their father,
Col Montgomerie Carr, of Louis
Vile, Ky, lost everything in the
panic following the civil war, and
their girlhood was Swallowed with
poverty. Alice was wooed and won
by Samuel Sloan Chauncey, a multi
millionaire of Brooklyn, who died
shortly after the marriage. The
very rich and very beautiful widow
took her younger sister, Grace to
England. There the two Kentucky
beauties made sensation. The
"ounger sister married the Baron
Marlborough, and some time later
Mrs. Chauncey married General, the
Honorable Cecil Bingham"
Miss Kane Honor Guest at Dinner

more endowed with natural charm
and genial disposition than Miss

wadski is being beautifully enter
tanned on her first visit to Ocala. A
series of delightful parties will add
to the charm of Miss kane's stay
and among the prettiest of the series
was the o'clock dinner given last
evening by her hostess.
The color motif, pink and white,
was developed with pleasing effect
in the dining room decorations. The
semi-square table had for its central
attraction an arrangements Of carna-
lions in cut glass vase resting on
a reflector outlined with tracery
of fern. Hand-painted carnation
cards marked the places and at each
was pink carnation bon-bon holder
filled with sailed almonds. Six pink
candles in crystal sticks were on the
table and with the candles on the
mantle and buffet, gave the only
light used and their soft glow en-
HANGED the exquisite attractiyeness
of the table and the group OF young
people for whom covers were laid.
The dinner. deliciously prepared,
was temptlngly served IN seven
courses and consisted of oyster cock
tail, bullion, creamed fish, tomato
bisque, sliced turkey, cranberry
sauce, dressing, creamed potatoes,
strawberry ice, hot rolls with en-
trees, ice cream, cake, almonds and
minis. Nearly three hours were
spent at the table and those enjoy

In the case Of Geo. II. Reid, plain

jury to bring in a verdict for the
plaIntifr, which was rs follows: I'VE
find for the plaintim the sum OF
$500. .63. This was an action
brought to recover the amount Of an
insurance policy held by the plaintifr
in the defendant company on a build
ing which was destroyed by fire The
contention in the ease hinged upon
the fact that 1T the lime the fire Oc-
Cured the building was vacant, and

To Patrons of TOwnvilIe School.

Townvillc. Oct. 26.-This is to in
form the patrons of the Townville
High School that the school has now
been in operation three weeks. If all
prospective pupils have not been en-
rolled, will the patrons kindly send
them in for enrolment Immediately?
For the convenience of patrons who
need their children to help with crop
gathering, the reccSses have been
made short and the hours also short
ened. The school hours are from
S.45 to 1890 for first grade pupils,
and from 8.45 a. m. to $50 p. m. for
others.
1t is an injustice to the pupil to
be advanced to work that he Is una
bic to accomplish, and usually 1t is a
reflection on the teachers ability
when pupil who does not regularly
attend is able TO do the work success
fully.
Let every pupil and every patron
realize the necessity Of continuous
daily attendance by each and every
pupil, for the loss Of a day at school
means, or at least should mean, the
loss of some part OF needed mental
training. G.. II. Witt, Principal.

ADVOCATES EQUAL JUSTICE.

What Oswald Garrison Willard Says
About Race Segregation.
The news from Washington that the
effort to segregate the cOlored and
white clerks in the federal depart
ments is checked If not ended must
cause to rejoice every one who be-
Heves III fair play and the square deal,
says Oswald Garrison Willard, editor
Of the New York Evening Post, In a
lengthy article in the Philadelphia
Press Jan. 2. he says:
Particularly to supporters Of the
woodrow Wilson administration, like
myself, is the news welcome, for this
attempt to draw caste lines in the
very heart of the government Of the
greatest of democracies, founded upon
the principle that all are born free and
equal. constituted grave blot upon
Mr.. Wilson's record, besides laying
him open to the charge Of preaching q
new freedom" but practicing new
slavery" for those upon whom divine
Providence In it's wisdom has bestowed
dark skins.
But, If we can rejoice over this re
versal Of bad federal policy, to our
shame be 1t said that segregation goes
on apace elsewhere. Nine southern
cities have voted to establish the
ghetto on American soil, though Au
gusta, to Its credit, has Just voted
down this cruel and un-Americar
proposition.
1t is a policy dictated by the most
selfish of considerations, for 1t would
make the progress Of race In ar
urban community depend upon land
values. For once the commonest eX
cuse for holding the Negro down-the
false cry of race purity and of social
equality-is put aside In favor of this
new proposition that the Negroes
must be confined to a given quarter
lest by going elsewhere they depreciate
the property Of whites.
Thus It IL laid down that II q colored

children better light, better air, q bet

sanitary quarters, he is thereby com
hitting a social crime; that we must
prevent his carrying out an ambition
which we applaud in every Other
American, be he Jew or gentle, Ar
menian or Russian or Pole or German
or pure American.
We reprobate It in the Negro as II

We can all sympathize with those
whose property suffers in value by
reason Of color prejudice. but the
whole history Of our cities tells of the
ruination Of aristocratic quarters by
the influx of trade or Of masses Of i'm
migrants. Sudden changes in value
are what every one faces who buys
urban property. Losing money ought
surely never to be an excuse for put
ting extra burdens on q race already
heavily disadvantagsd.
