HIGH ORDER OR TALENT.-The
New York World has sprung a real
society sensation. 1t has gone to a
whole lot of trouble and expense to
SHOW up" one Jean Harold Edward
st. Cyr, who married a rich and aged
widow, Mrs. Redfield, in 1909, on the
strength of his high-sounding no
menclature and aristocrauc ways,
and who, upon the death of his aged
wife, won notoriety by his inconsol-
able grief, evidenced by black crepe
underwear, silk crepe coat and
threats of suicide, and who then as
suaged his anguish by marrying the
$55, 100000 widow of one Silent"
Smith, a member of New York's four
hundred. Now the World proves, be-
yond a reasonable doubt, that Jean
Harold Edward st. Cyr is in reality
one Jack Thompson, ex-hotel clerk
of Waco, Tex.
Thompson, it has been shown,
being rather up against it in hard
hearted old New York, changed his
name, borrowed $500 for a wardrobe
and set out to bag a rich widow. He
succeeded, all right, and when she
considerably died, leaving him ample
working capital, he shot another
right off the highest limb of Manhat-
tan's tallest social tree.
1t is not charged that Thompson,
or st. Cyr, committed any legal Of
tense of any nature. He is simply
social fakir.
There are many and varied forms
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1916-02-21

of social taking. Probably, if all the.
old skeletons hidden away in the dark
closets of New York's aristocracy
we're hauled out and shaken as hard
as the World is shaking this one,
there would be rafting which would
drown the noise of the big guns in
Europe.
At the risk of being classed as So
cial anarchists, we must confess to a
sneaking admiration for young
Thompson. Alone and unaided, with
out money or social prestige, he in
vaded the holy of holes of Gotham
and got what he went after. He
brought home the bacon. He shrewd-
Iy capitalized the mania of New
York's newly-rich for title and made
it yield big interest returns. .s-
Thompson may be a social bucca-
neer, but he has a menu of traits
which surely must be delectable to
Wall street, even if it couses Fifth
avenue to gag and sputter nightly.
OUT OF IT.-Hadley announces
that he is "out of the race" for the
Republican nomination for United
States senator from Missouri.
Of course, a lot of folks will now
say that they knew it before Hadley
did. ~.- 49,.

Just as it is now obstinately shut

preparedness, for three years the Will
son administration refused to see the
need of adequate military prepared

army that could only muster 10000
available men and refused to continue
the established policy Of building up
our navy. When the time came for ac-
