Considering that we are led to believe that national Prosperity now amounts to an epidemic and that full dinner pails are drugs in the market, it seems singularly inconsistent that our Socialfstic vote should have grown | 3 from 86,000 to 400,000 within the last two years, ly What can be the reason for this unreasonable growth? Is it that these Socialistic enthusiasts are fighting for ®& principle and not for a practical result; that they care not how gorged individual dinner pails may be, but must have one vast national dinner pail into which 380,000,900 Americans will plunge their hands like Italians grab- bing for spaghetti; or can it be that prosperity, that fas- tdious jade, has been over-partial with her favors and, like others of her sex, has spurned the courtship of those whe needed her, only to lavish her gratuitous caresses on those already wedded to success? That the| dinner pails which she has filled are those of gold and not of tin? And that she has a misanthropic chaperon called Increased Cost of Living who casts a scowl on ‘one olse besides? If this is so it readily explains how so many of Pros- perity’s discarded sultors have joined the visionary Yanks of those who would by legislation force an essen- tially snobbish wench to be hafl-fellow-well-met with $0,000,000 people. & Romantic House.—The patriotic sentiment which secks| to have the city preserve for the public the old Jumel mansion at Edgecombe avenue and One Hundred and| Sixtleth street should be encouraged. More genuine revo-| futionary romance clusters about that historic house than| fn half a dozen Halls of Records. The great men who| crossed its threshold to attend the receptions of the two | ? celebrated women who were severally mistresses of It) ‘were worthy to fill a Hall of Fame of their own. THE SOLDIERS’ CHRISTMAS TAX, Like the gvod, kind, law-abiding creature that he ts, Tnele Sam will give proof to his soldiers in the Philip- pines in the coming Christmas time that he has not for- gotten them. As an earnest of his beneficence he will exact’tariff taxes on the presents sent to them by friends nd relatives in America. So will thoy be assured that wherever the flag floats protection still reigns for the in- fant industries that were in the beginning, are now and perhaps ever shall be. Were any of these soldiers who will pay their Christ- mas tax to join in an uprising in the islands they would expect the penalty for treason, knowing that the Philip- pines are a part of the national domain—when !t comes to fighting. Being all of them loyal men in blue, they will of eourso make a cheerful hollday season for the collectors, Knowing that the islands are a foreign country—when It comes to tariffing. Expansion presents no more “delightful paradox” than that which it is the privilege of these far-away soldiers ‘to contemplate, Not Up to Their Kxpectation.—The people of Duluth, Minn., having expressed their dismutistotion with a lecture | delivered there by Bishop Potter, the Bishop has returned | to the managers of the lecture the amount of his com- _Pensation, $150. The main point ot complaint, as voiced ‘ by @ local newspaper, was that the chief prelate of the + Eplscopal Church “failed to present his thourhts with , originality or newness of treatment." Proctor’s Knott's + Feference to Duluth as the ‘Zenith city of the unsalted @oas" seems still to hold good. It is a bit fresh. THE PUBLIC TO PAY THE BILL. The raising of railway wages has now extended, ectual or promised increase, to 650,000 employees, ane than one-half of ell in the service. Such an era of In- dustrial good will was never before known. The French King who wanted prosperity to be so general that every Bunday might see here the addition of a beefsteak a day to more than half a million dinner tables by the munifl- eence of the railway directors, But a word of comment on this munificence by al Pennsylvania executive official yesterday merits atten- | tion: “We have advanced the wages of our employees,” | he said. “And it is only fair that the public should con- | tribute toward It, and this can be done by increasing the freight rates.” | It usually comes to that in the end—the public pays the bill. The cost of living having increased the b nevo~ | ent manager raises wages to meet the increase. Then | to offset the raise of wages he makes commodities dearer till by adding a little to the charges for carrying them The public's back is broad and js used to such burdens, A TEACHER'S SUICIDE, Speaking 'efore the New York Educational Council | Dr. Albert P. Marble, Assistant School Superintendent of| New York City, said: ‘See that no young woman with | Supersensitive nerves is ever placed before a class of} children to be tormented by the healthy ebullitions of | Ubelr superabundant activity and to turn that cheerful and sportive life into the bitterness of angry discontent.” And almost as the words were leaving his lips a young teacher of supersensitive nerves in the Rivington strevt school was drinking of her daily toil.

He was. lke the meanest and great- est of his race, proud of his English birth, but the Inevitable question grew in time to be annoying So when he was presented to Caro- line Louise Vosht. and she interrupted his little speech about having hoped to meet her for some time, with the exclamation ‘Why, you are an English- Lovismman, aren't you?" yoanr. he was for the mo- ment disconcerted, and perhaps, a trifle disillusioned. Theirs was not a chance introduction, but one he had persistently sought ever since he had begun to meet the girl as they crossed the Brooklyn Bridge together every morning. For Tom Hurley while acting as New York agent for a large London firm had engaged rooms in a somewhat old- fashioned section of Brooklyn, not un- ike Bloomsbury; while Miss Voght, who was studying music In New York City, Hved with her father and mother in the more secluded borough. He had admired the pretty little American girl the more because she was totally unlike the very obvious type which he had come to accept as the na- tlonal beauty, For he had not learned that New York contains within Its crowded limits probably every variety of loveliness recognized by clvilized men. ‘Miss Voght invited the young English- man to call at her home and in three months Hurley knew that he was In love with her to what he was at first inclined to coneider a very undignified degree. He was an only son, and the mother and sister he had left dn London had ac- customed him to the subservient tender- ness which the English woman accords to mankind, At first he had not been sure that he liked the merry, Inconsequent comrade- ship of the American girl, whose mental attitude was distinctly not that of an inferlor, but whoso physical aspect ap- pealed to him more than that of any woman he had ever seen before, “You are the finest little girl I ever met," he said one afternoon in what was for him a burst of enthusiasm, as they were crossing Prospect Park to her home, Miss Voght turned in her walk and looked at him, her small characteristically, per delicately - pen- cllled brows arching high over her bril- llant eyes. “Nonsense!” she exclaimed. “When you go back home and fall in love with CAROLING one of those dawdy, beefy, but awfully | ¢ pretty Engllsh women you'll wonder what you ever saw in such a skinny Iit- tle American girl!
