HNldLISH PATRIOTISM'. Vou will be impressed at' once with the intense patriotism of the Eng lish. Thev love their government and are proud Of its record. They are particularly tond of boasting of , the prowess of their country. I stood I power house somewhere in the State, -on deck by the side of a middle aged i,ad been Struck by' lightning, killing intelligent subject of King Edward Just!severai people, but it did not think it as we sighted its southern coast.

"See," , he said, "we , could put one of our, best batteries. on . that promintory and sink any fleet the L ! French might send against us." I had 'v precisely the same experience when approaching trie coast from another i voint asfew days later, when another ' Englishman began at once to tell me ' "What they could do for any naval v force, that might attempt to attack , thelrl shores. LONDON. THE BIG. ''7 ' But what of London? Well, it's the ' . biggest thing I've ever seen outside of i" . Texas. Tou sooii realize that it I is - bigger than Chicago, bigger than. Parib, bigger than New York;fbut you miss the tall buildings found In our cities. A London man told me i' 'that their tallest house was thirteen stories. The 'average height of the , business blocks is four or five stories Tou miss the' street cars; there are I practically none. I had been. told Of- - ten of the omnibus system of -this great city, -but one can have but lit tle conception of it except o see it for himself.; There is a ceaseless stream jof omnibuses on every street all day . "long., some pulled by horses and some . operated by gasoline and electric. mo tors. All of these are double deck- ' ers and about the most fascinating i V thing I know Is to ride on top of a . London double-decker. I spent hours -, ' of my precious time in that place ' .' watching the people and the stores: rldlnsr through streets wnose names Jiad been familiar to me from my earliest childhood.. and passing-every now and then places of world wide In terest. From my perch on the ompi,-, bus ! watched the little street clean ing boys, successors they seem to be of the chimney sweeps of a hundred years ago, These boys from IS 'to 16 years of age, keep the : streets swept and the way they dodge In and 4 heels now brushed by-a heavy wheel ,v tht would Crush them to death if It swerved two inches rmade my hair t , stand on end more than once. .

I have gotten (back to the home of my ancestors. There la a street here in this great city named for my mother's famllyl . One of them, they say, was Lord Mayor of London once-and one of them was Lord Chief Justice of Ireland. One of them was at one time English minister at The Hague. What a pity' X forgot all about this when I was called on, at-The Hague In Queen Wilhelm's palace, to write down in' la book whether I was an aristocrat or ft nlebelan! No.' I'm glad I forgot tt.

"What is the price of. this," you ask. "Five and jslx" comes the quick answer, which means that it la. five shillings and six pence. I had oc casion to consult a. doctor '-alas, they levy tribute on me every where I go), and when I called for my bill he said "one sovereign." "For heaven sake, my dear sir, how much i3 that?" "Just a pound and one shilling," he replied. Then he continued, "The professional men, doctors and lawyers, are practically the only ones that speak of sovereigns." "Ah, yes, now il see. It takes a . rogue to catch a rogue. It Is about as easy to say sovereign' as 'pound and if you say the first It is one shilling more.

There is the old inn where Dr. Siimuel Johnson used to sip his tea and say smart things for Bos well to record. , "Look, there Is Old Curiosity Shop." said the guide, and I almost cried as I gazed at the ouaint little house. I went inside and bought a cunning little cut of the place which I will show you If the baggage-smash-ers will . let me. This house is near Lincoln's Inn Fields fronting which is the house wliere Charles Dickens gave his first reading, and around -which are the offices of the barristers and solicitors. I went back there one morning about 10 o'clock and watched the lawyers coming .to their offices. Nearly all of them walked with state ly dignity, dressed in conventional black, wearing black gloves. I stood on London Bridge and looked at the ceaseless throng of people that cross and recrosa the river. 'I got on a swift express steamer at Westminster and rode down the Thames to. Greenwich and walked up to the; top of the hill to the oibservatory where they make time and longitude. : I set my watch by the clock that sets the time, for the whole world and I mean to hold it there till I get borne Just to show you how, far "behind the time" we Wes tern .folks are.

Recognized by the Most Optimistic That It Will Be Barren of Results Will Adjourn About the Sllddle of October Has Cost Over a Mil ton Dollars. The Hague, Sept 22. After having been in session over three months, anM with adjournment probably a month distant, it is recognized gen erally, and even -by the most optim istic in the peace movement, that the second international peace con ference - has been and will be at its! conclusion barren of results leading! to permanent measures of benefit to the peace of the world. Mr. Choate, of the American dele gation,; however, ; Is still optimistic regarding the results even on the great questions, and especially that of a permanent court of arbitration, being - satisfied that the principle is admitted. He thinks that one, the Conference has concluded Its session It will be an easy matter to over- Lcome the pre jua ices concerning tne allotment of Judges and that there after the establishment of the court will be an easy task. The general opinion among: the other delegates,' however, differs from that of Mr. Choate. , The prevailing opinion as expressed by, one of ,the reading delegates Is that the absence' of results in the conference on the great questions .was due to the lack of preparation by all the countries represented.. In deed, what is to be decided, he de clared, is that the chief result of the conference will be a growing feeling fof diffidence on the part of the South Americans .towards Washing- I ton as, . rightly or wrorigly, they ac cuse the United States of having neg lected them and of caring only for working in accoVd with Great Britain and Germany. It is generally remarked that the United States should have come to the conference with the certainty of having the' support of all Latin American countries or should have abstained from proposing projects that were destined to meet with op position. . The remainder of the work will keep the conference busy until the middle of October. It is easy to foresee that the only success will be attained by Germany, who pre vents the adoption of projects to j which she is opposed, and by the I small States, which have proved that it is impossible to reach a world agreement without their support. It is estimated that the con ference has cost altogether $1,300, 000. WU TIXG FANG SI A YCOME. He lg Making an Active Campaign for the Washington .To!.
