Very late London advices state that a good many parties era being given for Mis* Marguerite and Mias Theodora Bhonts, the daughters of Theodore Per ry Shonta, of Panama canal fame. Un less there Is something out of the com mon about debutantes, they get no at tention whatever. These two girls are rather unique In their way, so they si ready command notice. They have a certain simplicity and frankness, which of late has not characterised the American debutante, who Is too much given to assuming ths “veal, vtdl, vlel” air. Perhaps It Is because the Mlssee Bhonts have passed the greeter part of their lives In their parents' plantation home, Daphne, Ala., that they are so characteristically unaffected. They sing caen songs which have never be fore boen heard In England, and accom pany them with the banjo. The king recently heard them sing at Consuelo, duchess of Manchester's, nnd requested their mother to come with them to tea at 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 tongs, accompa nied by the banjo. The Mlssee Bhonts have been studying In Paris for the last two years, and have devoted much of their time to music. Their mother has boen made most Indignant by of fers of colossal sums which have been made to these clever amateurs by a music hall manager. The girls them- who are full of fun, have beet ;een on accepting an "engage ment” and told her majesty sl The queen remarked Immediately that "even for fun,'* young girls who had homes of their own ana rich parents should not go on the stage, as In so doing, they might be taking employ ment from others. This visit of Mrs. Bhonts and her daughters to Buckingham palace hoe ■ - —amount of Jealousy, as the queen having received almost complete strangers In this In formal way Is a unique compliment— which Is not accorded by h«t once In yfars.

They know that the work of a master Is to be performed, and It Is but natural for svery mind to seek the best that Is offered for Its own de velopment, There Is no difference In this respect between good music and good books. “So, when we oonslder this desire on tho part of tho public for the high est music, their eagemeas to grasp tho 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 ego, we are bound to con cede that classic music Is popular.

The Diamond Palace. 37 Whitehall St C ( Personal Mention V —* THE POPE’8 VIEWS 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 le active In the cause of feminism. Contrary to the opinion generally held, the pope did not declare against the emancipation of woman, "which, he said, "can only ennoble her eoul by developing In her the desire for study and work. The church 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 and an Indulgent consoler." "Doc* your holiness approve," asked Mme. Thelmer, "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 ot our encourage ment, always provided that It does not violate Christian law's. It Is well that women are freeing themselves from ths heavy yoke that society has Imposed on them for centuries. It Is well that they are able to master their own means of existence. "For my part, I see nothing to pre vent them from being lawyers or doc tors; doctors especially, so that they can give proper care to their children, which In ull times has been their natu ral avocation. Education le also ons ot the professions which suit them best. Are they not the first teachers of their children, and thus of all humanity?" "Does the church authorise us to en- re In politico?" Vlth an espresalve gesture ot his hand the pope exclaimed: "Never that!" Women," he continued with a quiet smile of Irony, "ought not In any can to mix themselves In public affaire. They will be neither elector* 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 w riting of popular concerts, Wil liam Well, the great bandmaster, says: It I* difficult to define a 'popular concert program.' Whelm., m program Is popular or not depends entirely upon the Individual listener. It has been said that selections 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 concerts, and those who attend are not all musi cians and do not follow the score as Miss Bessie U Porter and Mlse Ms-1 the performance progresses.

With the popping ot firecrackers and the tooting of horns the ever-glo- rious Fourth ot July will be ushered In by Young Amerieu on Wednesday morning. Forecaster Marbury of the weather bureau predicts occasional showers for Atlanta throughout ths holiday, but that Is not worrying the pleasure- seekers, for It frequently happens that even the weather man Is mistaken In his forecasting. So plans have been going merrily on for the sporU snd 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 Is sure to find some thing on the day's program to smuts him. There will be picnics galore, both private and public, and many will spend the day quietly In this way. Then the baseball fans will have an opportunity of having their taste for a good exhlblton ot the national game satisfied, for there will be a game In the morning at 10 o’clock and another In the afternoon'at 1:10 o'clock . Hughes will probably be the slab artist against Nashville for Atlanta In the morning contest, and “Doc" Childs will sustain the honor of the team In the afternoon. Hundreds of excur sionists are coming to Atlanta Just to seo the great and only Atlanta ball team play and especially to see.Childs In the box, for he Is a Georgia boy with hosts of friends. Ttnnis and Shooting. For those who prefer the-less stren uous games, golf, tennis and gun shoots tiave been arranged. There III be no formal contests In golf, but the visitors and cltlsena of Atlanta will be given their first opportunity of seeing s lawn tennis tournament. This tournament started on tho East Lake grounds Tuesday afternoon and will reach Its height on Wednesday. Sev eral qf the most famous players In tne South are In the city to either play or witness the sport, and there Is much Interest In the outcome. The contests of the morning will begin at 10 o'clock and In the afternoon at 1 o’clock. Vis itor* should take the South Decatur cam to East Lake. Both tho Atlanta Gun Club and tho Atlanta Athletic Club ranges will be 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 era endeavoring to have a say as to how the government shall be managed, and for that reason two stats conventions will be held In Atlanta st the same hour—10 o'clock In the morning—snd st the same place, the state capitol. The Populists will meet In the senate chamber and the Socialists In ths house. Populist Convention* Th# Populist convention promises to be warm enough for even th* Fourth of July, for there Is a wide difference of opinion as to whether or not a tick et should be put In the field for the fall elections. At th* last meeting of the state body It wss 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 ths stats meeting at 10 o'clock will be chosen at a session to be held st the same place at 8 o'clock. The Socialist convenlton promises to bo oulet snd the prospects are for a small attendance, although a full stater ticket will be nominated. Rural Carriers MesL The Fourth 'will be a glorious day for the rural mail carriers of the state, for they will hold their annual conven tion In Atlanta at 5 o'clock. In th* morning. The Federation of Trades hall, on Forsyth street, has been se cured for the gathering, snd with th* excellent speakers that have been se cured for the program a most enjoya ble day Is promised. Mayor Woodward has agreed to deliver the address of welcome, and It Is possible that Sena tor A. 8. Clay will deliver a short ad dress.
