SPLENDOR AND DISTRESS IN LONDON Rieh Are Busy BDuylng Christma Presen While the Poor Are Fighting for Chance of Only a Day's Work. LONDON, Dec severe this winter and has already been felt throughout England, with the result that all who can leave are doing so. Hun- dreds of people are on their way to India and thousands are flocking to the south of France and Channel islands Christmas house parties are being organ- ized at all the big country places, where the frost is rapidly spoiling the hunting and driving the “guns” indoors to less strenuous recreation. In East London the weather is having a very serious effect and thousands of per- sons unemployed corgregate at the dock yard gates, literally fighting for a chance 10 do a day's work. Unskilled laborers are there In strong force and the police find it | necessary to protect the foremen who dis- tribute the work tickets each morning That portion of the fashionable world which can afford Christmae gifts is watch- ing the purchases of the members of the royal family in order to follow sult King Edward's gifts this year run largely to pen and pencil holders, cigarette cases and delicate enamel work set with a new varfety of soft-tinted, semi-transparent stones heretofore unknown in the realm of Jewelry. Queen Alexandra is also partial to enamel work. This year she is glving many photo- graphs in artistic enameled frames, whereas the late Queen Victoria usually favored silver for the same purpose. Queen Alexandra’s well known fondness for pearls leads her to distribute many of them among her more intimate friends at the Christmas ecason. K The king of Portugal made himeelf de- cidedly popular during his stay in England, besides proving himselt one of the best shots in Europe, a keen motorist, a clever painter and a good musician. During bis visit to Blenheim palace he treated the house party there to a number of French love mongs and Portuguese ballads. It is long since the theaters and restau- rants have experienced so profitable a season as the present. The West End is ablaze with light nightly, all the amuse- ment places are crowded and theater sup- per parties keep the fashionable hotels and restaurants busy until long after midnight. In the meantime the Board of Trade sta- tistics show the largest percentage for the year past of unskilled persons out of work, while the proportion of skilled men with- cut employment is constantly growing. The Woolwich arsenal authorities have discharged 2,000 men since the winter set in and are preparing to let out 4,000 more. To the army of people out of work must be added 56,000 members of the army reserve who have been released from service with the colors. Distress in the East End. The worst distress- naturally is visible in the East End. A number of newspapers have started subscription columns and dally print harrowing stories of half-clad school children, many of whom are without anyyfood except scanty luncheons furnished by sympathetic teachers. A number of the London suburban coun- clls are starting, public works in order to employ & small portion of the idle persons. The canning town suburb, where the dis- tress is keemest, has appropriated $50,000 for relief work. The London county coun- cfl will meet December 9 to consider the proposition for calling a conference of mu- nicipal bodies throughout the country to discuse what can be done toward establish- ing & permanent system for relleving the unemployed. Colncident with the general distress and idlenees, the Ship Builders' federation is quietly preparing for & test of ‘strength with the labor unions that may precipitate a genera! strike, equal to the great emgi- neers' strike of a few years ago. The ship builders, who have suffered for years from the restriction of the output, countenanced by the unions, have decided that it is necessary to introduce radical reforms in the way of labor-saving machinery. This means & reduction in the price of piece work, on which system the yards are run- il The builders say that if the men accept the Introduction of machine tools, most of of Portugal Popular. aEEEEET—— 1S A SERIOUS MATTER. and Fatal Diseases gestion. Chronic indigestion or Dyspepsia, while a very common trouble, has for some time been looked upon by able physicians as & serious tLing, and that no time should be lost in treating it properly at the start, be- cause recent researches have showm that the most serious, fatal and incurable dis- eases have their origin in simple dyspep- sia or indigestion. Diabetes is simply one form of indiges- tion, the sugar and starchy food not be- ing assimilated by the digestive organs. In Bright's disease the albumen is not prop- erly assimilated. While consumption and dyspepsia twin diseases, and it that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil for the seeds of consumption. But the trouble bas been to find a remedy that could be de- peaded upon to cure dyspepsia, as it is no- toriously obstinate and dificult to cure. This bas been the question which ki puzzled physicians and dyspeptics alike, un- til the question was solved three years ago by the appearance of a new discovery in the are medical world known as Stuart's Dyspepsis | Table tal which it was claimed was a cer- , reliable cure for every form of stom- trouble Physiclans, however, such statements without first giving the new remedy many tests and carefully ob- serving results. For three years the remedy has been thoroughly tested in every section of the country and with surprising and satisfac- tory results, Stuart's’ Dyspepsia Tablets can be hon- estly claimed to be a specific, a radical, lasting cure for indigestion in the various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour stomach, &as or wind on stomach, too much bile, un- due fuliness or pressure after eating apd similar symptoms resulting from disordered digestion. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets were placed betore the public until this years' trial left po doubt as to their value and they have recently been placed in the trade and can be found on sale at all drug- gists at the nominal price of 50 cents per package. No extravagant claims are made for the remedy, it will not cure rheumatism, poeu- monia, typhold fever nor anything but just what it is claimed to cure and that is every form of stomach trouble. No dieting is neceasary, good wholesome food and plenty of it and you may rest assured that Stu- art’s Dyspepsia Tablets will digest it.

Vander- bilt, jr., has sublet his handsome apart- ments to Mr. Siquiera, a rich South Ameri- can. Evidently he has mo intention of re- turning to Paris for some time. Mra. Potter Palmer intends to make her home in Paris in the future. Before leaving for America she negotiated for a large hotel and will return here early in January to furnish it. Mr. and Mrs. Lauterbach have returned to Parls from Switzerland, but owing to the continued indisposition of Mrs. Lauter- bach they will leave almost immediately for the Riviera. Mr. Lauterbach, who is very fond of Paris, had intended to rent a large flat, but Mrs. Lauterbach wishes to return to the United States, 80 the idea has been abandoned. Mr. Lauterbach’s daughter, who married Mr. Ketchem, has been furnishing a very large apartment in the most elabo- rate style, but feels obliged to sublet it | owing to her mother's iliness.

He will exclude from them all that he regards as hurtful for youthful minds. He will have nothing in them which will arouse pariotism.

PARIS, Dec. 6.—(New York World Ca- blegram — Special Telegram.) — Marseilles demands & university. Its cousins say it is very unbecowing that a city of its size. age and importance should bave to send its sons away from home for their university career. Marseilles has only one collexe. that of the Sclences, while Alx is the seat of schools of law and lefters. The oroo- osition is to unite the schools of Aix with that of Marseilles to form the nucleus of a university.

Young, pretty and having correct taste and dress, Mrs. Newhouse*is very popular in London society. It was| announced here lately that she intended to | divide her time hereafter between living | in New York and London, but she has gone | to America this time to spend the winter | in Colorado with her husband.

Claridges has been Mrs. Newhouse's | Her husband recently took | a house for her on Charles street, meaning | to bhave it rebuilt during her absence in | America, but possibilities of litigation over | it arose and he is now looking for another house. The wedding of Count Reginald Ward's sister was an exceedingly pretty affair and | the bride looked thoroughly composed, al- | though she had undergone the terrible ordeal of beiug uncertain whether her bridal drees would arrive from Paris in time. It was not until the very last minute, when every effort to trace it had been exhausted, that the box was delivered | by a complacent carrier, who was dum- | founded at the frantic exclamations of joy | which his appearance elicited. It was a simple but extremely beautiful frock. Flowers Are Plentiful. Flowers were used with a lavish hand | in the church, and at the reception after- | ward in the Hyde Park hotel, which wa thronged with fashionable people, thing were done on a scale of great magnificence. The mirrors and panels of the reception rooms were all outlined with blossoms, while hanging lights among feathery palms gave a lively effect. Captain and Mrs. Blackburne Tew, the bridegroom and the bride, stood in the center under an enormous bell of white flowers, all packed together, while a large glow lamp on the side irradiated the happy pair. Mrs. Ronalds was there, wearing a sable cape and “smart” toque. She was | much interested, as she was the uncon- scious matchmaker, the pair having first | met at her house. Mrs. Ritchie, Mrs. Jaffray, Mrs. Lorillard and Mrs. Ogilvy | Haig talked together. ‘The wedding cake occupled the circular | table and had as floral trophles amorous emblems on either side, while the en- twined monograms of the bride and bride- groom were worked on white satin in silver. The betrothal of a pretty American, Mrs. Henry Blake, who had a beautitul house on Hans Place, and General Eir Seymour Blaine, has excited considerable interest. Sir Seymour, though he will be 70 years old In February, has never married. He is a prominent member of White's club and a great connoisseur in art,a direction in which Mrs. Blake also is interested. The wedding | is to take place early in the new year. The bridal robe will be of gray velvet. Blake retired from the army in 1881.

Ambassador and Mrs. Choate’s departure for Cairo to witness the closing of the Nile dam, as guests of its eonstructor, Sir John Alrd, is another indication of a hitch in First Secretary White's promotion to the Rome embassy. The ambassador will be ac- companied by his private secretary, Mr. Woodward, and will be absent until Febru- ary. Probably the party will go up to Khartoum.

PRIZE GOES TO PEASANTS| Academie Franchise Rewards Herolsm of Men Who Saved Human Lite, (Copyright, 1902, by Press Publishing Co.) | PARIS, Dec. 6.—(New York World Cable- | gram—Special Telegram.)—The Prize of Virtue awarded by the Academie Francaise has been awarded this season to three sim- ple Britons whose splendid bravery saved many lives. A three-masted schooner from | Marseilles was wrecked off their coast and | it seemed impossible to save its crew be- cause of the high sea. But these three men, in the very teeth of death, rowed to the rescue in their little boat and saved the greater part of the crew, who had given up hopes. One did not even know how to swim. The brave men's names are Floch, Bonrel and Tanguy. The prize is $400 and will be divided between them. President Houssaye, who made the an- nouncement at the annual meeting, paid a charming tribute to their beroism. Ninety- eight prizes were awarded, most of them for literary efforts. One award of 1,000 francs went to Rene Vallery Radot for a blography of his father-in-law, the fllus- trious Pasteur. s C.
