Speclul to The Georgian. London, Sept. 1.—President Roose velt's decision to employ Chinese labor on the Panama canal Is criticised by labor members of the house of com mons. Kelr Hardle, leader of the party, •aid: "I hope the matter has not pro gressed to the point of definite settle ment. My views on the American, question of Chinese labor may be ex pressed In a single sentence. I hope that the people of the United States will have learned from the experience of the British government In South Africa, and will keep the Chinese out, as they would a plague.” "Chinese labor and Chinese slavery under the conditions which were ob tained in South Africa are associated In the public mind. From the form in which the news reaches us, I gather that the terms under which Chinese are to be Introduced are almost identi cal with those which governed their Introduction Into South Africa. My sympathies are, therefore, with the people of America.” The secret of the steamer Xcma's diamond hunting voyage Is no secret since she has left the port of London The facts have now been allowed pub licity, and the surmise of The Georg ian correspondent, that the ship Is bound for an obscure island off the African coast proves to be correct. Only the exact latitude and longitude of the dlamondlferous Island Is kept secret. The Collls Diamond Syndicate, which Intends to exploit, numbers many peers and other titled gentlemen among Its shareholders. They Include Lord Aber- dare, the Marquess of Tweeddalo, the Karl of Albemarle, several lords of the Scottish court of session, a number of baronets and knights, Including Sir A. Conan Doyle, and several naval of ficers. The story' of the mysterious island with Its wealth of diamonds Is told by Mr. Kanyon-Collls, the man ager of the syndicate, substantially as related In the London correspondence of The American several months ago. Briefly, n certain Captain Jones, of Cardiff, found a collection of precious •tones In the possession of one of his crew, Dick Powell. Among them were several fine diamonds, and Powell stat ed that they came from an Island off the African coast. Jones thereupon **t out to locate the Island, having been Instructed by the diamond expert, Grif fith, who had valtled the stones, how to win and wash diamonds. Jones set out for the Island, and In 1897 Griffith met him In Capetown, w'hen Jones told him he had located the island, and showed him a quantity of diamonds. These Griffith valued at 175.000, and found that they did not come from any known diamond mine. Jones shortly afterwards died, hut left In Griffith’s hands a chart which would enable him to locate the Island. Griffith, having Just returned to Eng land after a roving career, has placed his information In the hands of the Collls Syndicate, formed to exploit It. The Island, which is about 70 miles from the mainland, Js believed to be uninhabited. It Is marked on admiral ty charts, but no one outside the syndi cate knows how to find it, ns Its name Is a close secret. Jones and Powell are dead, while Griffith has sold his knowledge to the syndicate of noble men and gentlemen that are sending out the good ship Xema. The direc tors of the syndicate are: Sir Alexan der Muir Mackenzie, K. G. Burne, Captain A. L. Hughes-Hughes, royal navy; Captain Frederick G. Jacksdn (of the Jackson-Harmsworth Polar ex pedition), Arthur Lundsberg, a promi nent diamond merchant, and A. B. Larkins. The Xema carries an elab orate plant for diamond mining and washing, camp equipments and arms and ammunition. Ancient Sednn chairs are now put to a strange and very modern use by society women. A telephone in her boudoir being a necessity to my lady, she finds that her great-grandmother’s polasquln Is he only form of telephone box elegant mough to suit the sur roundings. The Idea has been taken up by many fashionable women, who have reached the ancestrial lumber rooms for discarded Sedan chairs. These have been furnished up and in stalled In the owner's boudoir and fit ted incongruously with a telephone apparatus all complete. A genuine old Sedan chair, decorated In the Georgian style, makes an elegrtnt piece of furni ture for a dafhty boudoir, .» id the un sightly telephone box or naked trans mitter and receiver Js dispensed with. An “Anti-Smart Set” movement has commenced among the best circle of English society. It Js headed by the young Duchess of Norfolk, a high- principled and fearless lady, who has already proved her fitness for the proud position of premier duchess, which she gained by her marriage. Father Bernard Vaughan’s fierce de nunciation of the low morals preva lent In certain sections of society is held to be, In the main, justified. Father Vaughan received many letters from members of the ’’Smart 8et” them selves, admitting that many of the churges he made against them were true. Now a great effort Is to be made to purge society of the licentious ele ments that bnvp brought discredit the English nristocracy. By a system of rigorous scrutiny into the records of those who appear on their visiting list, hostesses who have Joined the re forming movement will weed out the men and women who bear the taint of the “Smart Set.” Inveterate gamblers and. loose-livers will be barred from the best houses. A courageous step In this direction was taken up by the Duke of Richmond a year or two ago, when he struck off his house party list for Good wood, _ the names of certain ladles with tarnished reputations whom his most Illustrious guest wished to be Invited. His grace fell out of royal favor In consequence of this fastidious ness. PIS SHOPKEEPERS OPPOSEJEST DM Want To Keep Open on Sab bath Throughout the Year. HUGH GALLAGHER WILL BE RE-ELECTED.

September 1.—Miguel Zama cols has published an eloquent appeal against laziness in the pages of The Gaulols. “This Is the loafing age,” says he, and calls attention to the appalling prevalence of laziness Paris alone. It seems that nobody wants to work these days. The eight- hour labor day has already been ob> talned, but the working men are agi tating for a six-hour day. Soon they will want a one-hour working day, They have got a weekly day of rest. It won’t be long before they will want to rest six days and work on the sev enth. The streets, the parks are cov ered with Idle people. The cafe -ter races are filled at all hours. The benches along the avenues are covered with loafers. The extraordinary num ber of unoccupied people would sug gest a terrible state of things, a sort of national calamity, a country ’over run with beggars and other poor wretches who can not find employment, But not at all. The great crowds of people doing nothing all day long, which one encounters at every turn In Paris, are not poor. They are de cently dressed. They have money to spend at the cafes, at the races. They take a cab when they are too lazy to walk. They are not Idle because they t get work, but because they do not want It. Chronic laziness seems to have attacked the whole population. The one object of thought nowadays seems to be to find a way of living Ithout working. When some master brains will have invented machines which will do everything for us, su preme happiness will have been at tained. The nation will sit down and look on, while steam,-steel and Iron do the work. Mrs. Hughes-Hallet, the American queen of Emerald court, has given her first ball of the season at her villa of Monplalslr at Dinard. Among the guests were two princesses, seven mar quises and five marquises, thirty counts and as many countesses, fourteen bar- and twenty-one baronesses, and eight viscounts and viscountesses, four pashas, and about half a dozen Eng lish noblemen and women, in addi tion to a large number of wealthy but untitled guests. The authorities are meeting with considerable difficulty In enforcing the law relative to an obligatory day of rest. The curious part of It Is that the opposition comes not so much from the employers as from the employees. Sunday having been decided upon as the day of rest, the authorities have received enormous numbers of letters from tradespeople asking to be per mitted to keep open shop on Sundays and give their employees each one day of rest per week In turn. It seems Impossible to get the people to agree as to which day really should be used to rest. floats away with them was the subject of a communication to the Academy of Sclehce recently. M. Domergue ex plained how to destroy the bivalve’s deadly enemy. He explained that this particular kind of weed Is furnished with bulbs which at high tide fill with water, but when the water lowers the bulbs empty and fill with air. As the tide comes In again, the bulbs rise to the 'surfn’ee, and as the weed flourishes particularly In oyster beds, It carries off a lot of the oysters with It They float out to sea and are lost. The rem edy which Is now applied Is to beat the beds with faggot* ot thorn* at low tide: This destroys the bulbs and prevent* the elopement of the oyster. “No more colored stockings,” says Dame Fashion. Even tan or gray, which were so popular at the begin ning of the season, are now considered vulgnr. Black only Is worn by the chic Parlsienne now, preferably black silk of course, and low shoes with large old- fashioned silver buckles. Large hats, too, are once more In favor. The min iature straw derby and brimless sailor are no more seen on the heads of the elegantes, but huge Gainsboroughs In stead, with as many ostrich plumes as •con possibly be made to hold In place thereon.

Others are arranged fountalnwlse. Instead of falling back upon the crown and brim, the plumes are made to stand stiffly up from Just above the center of the forehead and drop over at a height of about six or eight Inches. A writer In The Echo de Paris, who signs “Monsieur Pickwick,” In a recent issue writes scathingly of the trend of conversation In modern French society, lie says the one and only subject of unfnlllng Interest Is that of matrimo nial Infidelity. That at every dinner, reception, tea or social gathering to which you go In Paris the only thing that the guests thlk about Is whether Madame X. Y or Z Is unfaithful to her husband, and whose wife Monsieur A, n or <’ has got a love Affair with, ’if vou talk politics,” says the writer, "the hostess tac ully changes the subject In order to avoid heated discussions. If you broach the subject of finance, somebody shuts you off because you might make matte-* embarrassing for persons present who are in difficulties. Questions of social Interest are also tabooed, as they, like politics, are apt to lead to discord. Try history, nnd In these days of superficial educations there won’t be three people who know what It Is all about. Moreover, none of the foregoing topics are likely to entertain the ladles. What then? Love Intrigue Is the only subject left.’ MONTGOMERY LABORERS WILL HOLD CELEBRATION. KlMs-tnl fo The Georgisu. Montgomery, Ala..
