GENTLEMEN OF LEISURE.

The recent discovery of a genu-
inc "gentleman of leisure In New
York has evoked much surprise
among those who supposed the
srecies in this country was Virtu-
alIv extinct. His fortune being
under control of the court, he had
anpIied for the doubling of his an
riial allowance of 100000 on the

old saving that two can live as
cheaply as one.

America, who toll not, neither dc

n comparatively recent product Is
a question for discussion. In the
early pioneer days they may not
have been numerous, and certainly
there was no place for them in the
west that was just being rescued
from the wilderness, but many OF
the gentlemen of the old southern
aristocracy took pride in their ao-
stentfon from real work. At any
rate, it is significant that the find
ing of this self-confessed idlef
should create such a furore.

TO business is now leavened with
a little more play, but it is true
that America has no such leisure
