Very late London advice* state that a good many parties ar* being given for Mies Marguerite and Mlu Theodora Shonta, the daughters of Theodore Per ry Bhonte, of Panama canal tame. Un leu there la something out of the com. mon about debutantes they get no at tention whatever. These two girls are rather unique In their way. eo they nl ready commund notice. They have a certain simplicity and frankness, which of late has not characterised the American debutante, who le too much given to assuming the "venl, vidL vlcl' air. Perhaps It Is becauu ths Mluea Hhonts have passed the greater part of their lives In their parents' plantation home, Daphne, Ala., that they are so characteristically unaffected. They sing coon songs which have never be fore been heard In England, and accom pany them with the banjo. The king recently heard them sing at Conauelo, duchess or Manchester's, and requested their mother to come with them to tea nt Buckingham palace that the queen might hear them sing. Next day the king sent one of the royal motors for the girls and their mother, and Queen Alexandra was regaled all the after noon with plantation eonga, accompa nied by the banjo. The Misses’ Shonta have been studying In Parte for the lut two years, und have devoted much of thetr time to music. Their mother has been made moat Indignant by of fers of colossal sums which have been made to these clever amateurs by a mualo hall manager. The glrla them- Ivea. who are lull of fun, liave been very keen on accepting an “engage- mint" and told her majesty so The queen remarked Immediately that "even for fun,’’ young glrle who had homes of their own ana rich parents should not go on the stage, as In ao doing, they might be taking employ ment from others. This visit of Mrs. Shonts and her daughters to Buckingham palace has caused a great, amount of Jealousy, as the fact of the queen haring received utmost complete strangers In this In formal way Is a unique compliment— one which te not accorded by h«e once In years.

They know that the work of a master le to be performed, and Is but natural for every mind to seek the beet that Is offered for lu own de velopment. There Is no difference li this respect between good music and good books. “So, when we consider this dsslra on the part of the public for the high est music, their eagerness to grasp the opportunity afforded for hearing It, compared to the persuasion that was required to Induce the general public to attend a concert a comparatively few years ago, ws are bound to con cede that classic music Is popular. "Llgbt opera and characteristic pieces are usually mere musical orna ments of the hour, but with the right Jingle have a large following. Tsiey are a part of a musical education from a concert-goer’s standpoint, and should be encouraged by program builders. It Is necessary to Introduce the masses to the heavier compositions by degrees. The relaxation white enjoying a fa vorite light number arouses two-fold Interest In that which le to follow.

"In a word, I maintain that a ‘pop ular program’ has come to mean both frivolous and serious selections, with the good, solid' material- predominating. Thus you fret arouse and amuse your heprera and then tempt them Into fol lowing you Into the domain of the clas elc." c r Personal Mention “V I) THE POPE'8 VIEW8 OF WOMAN, The pope's views on the destiny of woman are published In the form of an Interview with the pontiff granted to Madame Camille Thelmer, the well- known Viennese novelist, who la active In the cause of feminism. Contrary to the opinion generally held, the pope did not declare against the emancipation of woman, "which, he raid, "can only ennoble her aoul by developing In her the deelre for study and work. The rhurch approves the woman who by her labor does her ut most to become the true associate of man, to contribute to the well being of the home, while remaining her hus band's helpmeet, a vigilant and tender mother ana an Indulgent consoler." "Does your holiness approve," aaked Mme. Thehner, "the admission of wom en to the liberal professions?” “All that tends to raise the moral and Intellectual level of humanity," replied the pope, ’’Is worthy of our encourage ment, always provided that It does not violate Christian laws It Is well that women are freeing themselves from the heavy yoke that society has Imposed on them for centuries. It le well that they are able to master their own means of sxlstence. "For my part, I see nothing to pre vent them from being lawyers or doc tors; doctors especially, eo that they can give proper care to their children, which In all times has been their natu ral avocation. Education le also one of the professions which suit them beet. Are they not the first teachers of their children, and thua of all humanity?" "Doea the rhuivh authorise us to en gage In politics?" with an expressive gesture of his hand the pope exclaimed: "Never that!" "Women,” he continued with a quiet smile ot Irony, “ought not In any case to mix themselves In public affairs. They will be neither electors nor elect ed. Indeed, men have enough trouble already In agreeing among themselves; they do enough to bring disorder into parliaments." WHAT IS A POPULAR CONCERT? In writing of popular cuncerts, Wil liam Well, the great bandmaster, says; "It la difficult to define a *poputar concert program.' Whetum a program le popular or not depends entirely upon the Individual listener. It has been raid that selection* of a classical na ture are not popular. This may have been true, but It Is not so today, it Is noticeable that the largest audiences attend concerts that are called classi cal, especially Wagner concert*, and those who attend are not all musi cians and do not follow the score as the performance progresses.

With the popping of firecrackers and the tooting of horn* Hhe evsr-glo- rious Fourth of July will be ushered In by Young America on Wednesday morning. Forecaster Marbury of the weather bureau predict* occasional showers for Atlanta throughout the holiday, but that Is not worrying the pleasure- seekers, for It frequently happens that even the weather man is mistaken In hiv forecasting. So plans have been going merrily on for the sports and outings of the day, and unless a verit able downpour of rain shall come nothing should happened to mar the enjoyment of the day. No matter what a person's disposi tion may be, he le sura to find some thing on the day’s program to amuse him. Thera will be picnics galore, both private and public, and many will ,epend the day quietly In this way.

Both the Atlanta Gun Club and the Atlanta Athletic Club ranges will bo In full commission throughout the day, but no formal program has been an nounced by either club. Interesting contests will be arranged, however, any lovers of that sport will see some rare shooting. , In these strenuous days of red hot politics It would not do for a holiday to pass unobserved by those who are endeavoring to have a eay aa to how the government shall be managed,” and for that reaeon two state convention* will be held In Atlanta at the same hour—10 o'clock In the morning—and at the same place, the state capital. The Populists will meet In the senate chamber and the Socialists In the house. Populist Convention. The Populist convention promise* to be warm enough for even the Fourth of July, for there I* a wide difference of opinion os to whether or not a tick- at should be put In the field for the fall elections. At ths last meeting of the state body It was voted to put a ticket In the field, but the opposition was so strenuous that many believe that an other vote will result differently. Del egates from Fulton county to the state meeting at 10 o'clock will be chosen at a session to be held at the same place at 9 o'clock. The Socialist convention promises to be oulet nnd the prospects are for a small attendance, although a full state tick&t will be nominated. Rural Carriers Meet.
