BACHELOR EVANS has played op-

Hayes and Katharine Cornell, and
his attractiveness is testified to by
a recent fan letter which began,

shares George Bernard Shaw's
opinion of marriage as ex-
pressed in ''Man and Super

for his current success in the role.

ment that can be made about our
100000 bachelors is that only
very few are rash enough to close
the door on marriage entirely.
American society puts practically
no pressure on them to change
their status. Ancient Athens tor

forbade them to deliver orations
or lead armies. And more recently,
the relationships of Germany,
Italy and Russia have penalized
and taxed them.
Our American bachelors are
only bounded by hostesses who
need extra men.
The mortality rate for bachelors
is AZ per cent higher than for mar

to fatal accidents and three times
as likely to trot off to. a mental

Horse And Buggy Days
BY IDA 10 MARTIN

HE said that, Founded on the
sovereignty of the people, the Re
public of the United States of Amer
lea was a fire, of which the daily
contact with Europe threatened the
latter with confagration; that, as an
asylum for all innovators, it gave
them the means of disseminating at
distance by their writings and by
the authority of their example,
poison of which the communication
could not be questioned, as it was,
well known that the French revolu-
ton had its origin in the United
States, that already troublesome eff
fects were felt from the presence of
the French refugees in the United
States!
"The Russian Ambassador went on
to state and argue that the conquest
of the United States as an enter
prise; that the degree of power to
which the Americans had risen
made them objects of fear to the
European monarchical Govern
ments, &c.
"The editor of the Express came
in contact with this curious paper
in the State Library at Albany, in
an old file of the Missouri Repub-
lican, printed more than thirty
years ago."

1 WISH 10 JnaIk MISS EStnef ESnle-
man, of Maugansville, for giving me
two copies of the Herald of Free
dom and Torch Light" one dated
Sept. 4, 1861, and the other February
Is, 1852.
From the 1852 paper we have the
following interesting items:
Rome To America
The report that his holiness the
Pope intended to present a block of
marble for the Washington Monu-
ment is confirmed by letter from the
Hon. Lewis Cass, Jr., to the Secre-
tary of the Monument Society The
following is the letter:
Rome, Dec. "a, 1851
Sir: | have honor to inform you
that l have been apprized by his
holiness, the Pope, thro' Cardinal
Antonelli, the Secretary of State of
the Roman Government, of his in
tention to contribute block of mar
BILE towards the erection of the Ma
tional Monument to the memory of
Washington. The block was taken
from the ruins of the ancient Tenn
pie of Peace, adjoining the Palace
of the Caesars, and is to receive the
inscription of Rome to America"
AS soon as the work is completed,
the necessary measures will be talk
en- to forward it to you. I am, sir
very respectfully, your obedient
servant,
Lewis Cass, Jr.
The following item in the Torch
Light was quoted from 'The Mary
land Journal and Baltimore Ad-
vertiser." Several months ago this
column carried several stories talk
en- from a copy of one of the first is
sues of this Baltimore paper, loaned
to me by Paul W. Shank.
Here is the story:
Old Times
A friend has placed in our hands
a file of "The Maryland Journal and
Baltimore Advertiser" from the
first of January to the last of Deem
Der, 1882. 1t is an interesting relic
of former times; times when the
freemen of this country were strug-
Cling against the armed minions of
Great Britain. The number of the
18th of February, contains the
toasts drunk at a dinner given by
General McDougall, at West Point
among which were the following:
disappointment, disgrace, or a
gibbet, to every double-face, in the
civil or military.
May America never put conf
dence in knaves, fools or coxcombs.
May hen-roost politicians be ever
excluded from our great and lesser
councils.
1.-The chief of the bawl-wawls
Every public villain in trust un-
masked"
We know not what is meant by
the chief of the bawl-bawls," but
it seems that our fathers, as well as
the present generation, were
troubled with unprincipled polite
ians; and the wish expressed in one
of the toasts, may be reiterated now;
that "hen-roost politicians" may be
excluded from Office.
