put steady going old London is stlck
g to the original prices, not from any
irtlcular far-sightedness or spirit of
nerosity to the American cousin, but
, nply because London always does what
mdon always did. So the tourist
encles report that their patrons are go

soon as possible. One feature of the
•son, so I am told, is to be the qri
ecedented invasion of Ireland. That
partly because the Irish rail
ays and resorts, hitherto preter
tu rally indifferent to the advent

last condescended to make them

ady the principal steamers from London
New York are nearly full for August
and September. In the Jubilee year many
10 would have gone back first-class were
ad to go in the steerage, and many oth
s ran short of funds while waiting for
chance to get home In any fashion what
er. This year it would be worse, even
the ctrowd were to be greater, for the
-ltish government has “commandeered”
number of the largest passenger vessels
the trans-Atlantic service, and even
the war is over in July they will be
eded for bringing home the great army
1 >w in South Africa.
Therefore, if any of the readers of this
i ticle are coming to Europe this summer
ithout buying return tickets, let us par

out to get married, and say "Don'll”
It will be a lucky thing for many a
randed American this fall that the
Sierlcan Society In London is now busy
ganizing a benevolence fund. The so
fty’s members are chiefly folk whom
iainess has exiled in London, and who
e making <sb much money here that
>ey can’t afford to go home. They have
en pestered individually for years by
How citizens who have come to grief
f-er here. Sad to say. a rather large pro
.rtion of these fellow citizens were not
serving of the help they got, and after
time Brother Earle, who is president
the American Society, and Brother
ansichlan, the secretary, and Morgan
kthards, and the rest of them, became
mewhat tired on finding, when they got
gether to compare notes, that each had
en giving five or ten dollars to the
ma person on the same plea. So they
arted a fund, to which most of the
embers of the society have contributed,
td have established a mild Inquisition.
Consequently, If you go broke In Lon
■n this fall, and apply for aid to any
omlnent American here you will be re
rred to an official, and must not be an

The American Girl In London.
Weeks ago Regent street began to bear
i strong resemblance to Twenty-third
Ibnat, between Sixth avenue and Broad
lr. New York. The vlsltlrg American
but Cl cm li.e t:.; ■ t. fe - \ t v
pers as distinctly as if she were dressed
in the Stars and Stripes. The American
women are as well dressed to-day as the
women of Paris, and far, far ahead of
the women of London in this respect.
Their clothes fit better, as a rule, and
there is a general smartness and breezi
ness about the American girl that the
brightest of London girls lack. It is
heresy, I know. I but I am complied to
observe, on the strength of the testi
mony of many experienced American wo
that, that the American girl who is count
ing on having her dresses made in London
and Palis thi* summer would do better
in fit. in quality, in style and in price if
she were to have the work done at home—
unless, of course, she is an* heiress.
'lt is tar easier to find an American in
London when you don’t know’ his address
than it is in any larg-i American city. The
chances are ihreo in five that you will
encounter him in the afternoon on the
east side of Regent street, somew’here
between Oxford Circus and Piccadilly
Circus. Half way down there is an
American candy store which has become
so famous as a resort for the adorable
American girl that you can’t advertise
the place any more than you could ad
vertise Westminster Abbey. In one af
ternoon there last summer, in the length
of time it took to get a “real American
ice cream soda," I saw there the Coun
tess of Craven, who used to bo lbtle Miss
Bradley-Martln; Edna May, who, in spite
of all her denials, is likely to out-title
the haughty little countess presently, an 1
Mrs. Paget, wdio is almost much of a
power here as her mother. Mrs. Paran
Stever.a was in New York In her day.
And, by the way, the little countess, af
ter leaving an order with the clerk for
some sweets to be sent to her town
house, observed:
“Ah, I suppose you know who I am?”
”Yes, madam.”
“Yes, I am the Countess of Craven."
The west side of Regent street :e other
wise Just as interesting as the east side,
but. after watching that side of the street
rather curiously for several seasons, I sol
emnly aver that I never yet saw an Amer
ican tourist there.
Haunts of Americans.
If the American you are looking for is
not on Regent street in the afternoon, look
for him on Bend street, a block further
west. That used to be the promenade of
the beaux in Brummel’s day, and even
now you will find better dressed men on
that street than any other in London ex
cept Piccadilly and St. James. It is nar
row end dingy and unpretentious, but be
hind its shop windows are the most cost
ly wares to be found anywhere in the me
tropolis. If your American is not saun
tering by these shop windws, try for him
in Burlington arcade—unless he has
brought his wife with him, in which case
it is not necessary to look for him there.
In the morning the Strand, between the
Cecil and Trafalgar Square, would, in the
season, turn out Amerioans enough to
populate a good sized town. In conse
quence many of the shop windows in that
region display American prices as well as
English.
For some reason, two-thirds of all the
American visitors to London who do not
stop at a hotel gravitate toward Blooms
bury, and lodge somewhere within half a
mile of the British museum. Russell
Square has lost most of the patriarchal
character it had in the days when dear,
stupid little Amelia Sedley lived there and
George Osborne made love to her, while
Becky Sharp laid snares for Joe. It is
running to boarding houses and hotels
as fast as anything so solemn and dig
nified could run, and block after block of
the streets leading off from it are occu
pied by an uninterrupted line of fairly
high-priced board-houses that have be
come hotels by virtue of a fancy name
on a large brass plate. From now till
October they will be given over wholly
to Americans, who pay there anything
from $8 to sls a week for breakfast, tea,
dinner and one comfortable room, usual
ly getting their luncheons out. I ven
ture to say that If a straw vote were
to be taken In Bloomsbury any time this
summer between Americans and Britons,
the Americans would have It by a large
majority.
For some strange reason the Baker
street region In the vicinity of Regent’s
Park is also becoming strongly Ameri
canized, and when the Queen drove that
way on the occasion of her last visit to
London, I counted half a dozen American
flags in one block. It is to this region
that any one who is going to stay in Lon
don for a month should come and plunge
without preliminaries into housekeeping
if he has brought his family. The sug-
gestion may sound a little odd to any one
who is not familiar with one peculiar
phase of living in London, but the scheme
is perfeectly practicable. All you have to
do ia to take at a moment’s notice a
floor consisting of two or three rooms
in any one of the many houses of the
Baker street region that are dedicated to
this apartment life, unstrap your luggage
and proceed to be as much at home a* If
you had lived in London for an age. If
it is chilly, the maid had a fire burning
for you In the grate, and if it is 5 in the
afternoon she is serving tea before yau
have fairly had an opportunity to ob
serve that the place is even provided
with a piano. You go around the corner
to the groeer and the green grocer (two
wholly sepajate personages), the butcher,
the poulterer and dairyman and order
w'nat you like for dinner. They send it
around to your cook, and presently, with
out your giving the matter any further
thought, it is served In your own dining
room.
I never could understand why more
Americans who are going to stay a fen
weeks In London do not try this plan of
ready-made housekeeping. You have ab
solutely no responsibility or worry, ex
cept buying whatever food you want, and
struggling with the English currency sys
tem. It is quite as cheap as boarding;
you avoid the horrors of the boardlng-

aside from whatever you choose to pay
'Tor food of from $lO to sls a we k for
two fairly comfortable room?, and as
much more at you want to pay for more
elaborate accommodations. For two per
sons, or two and a it is consider
ably cheaper than boarding—unless you
are in too great a hurry about counting
your change.
It would be interesting to estimate how
much good Amer.can money,translated in
to English coin, will be left unnecessarily
in London by this summer's army of tour
ists, all because of the American hahit of
impatience. I never yet knew a vis.tor
from the Btafes who, unfamiliar with the
cumbrous .English coinage system, vvm
willing to stand at a shopkeeper's counter
and painfully count his change, if it was
at ail complicated. He has a notion that
the shopkeeper will take him for a green
horn, and consequently empties his hand
ful of .silver and copper into his pocket,
after a brief, help.ess glance at it.
Now. the English shopkeeper is no more
and no less* honest in the average than
his American cousin, and he cannot al
ways resist the temptation thrown in his
path by such reckless financing. Further
more, instead of being impressed by the
customer’s seeming disregard for mon.y,
he merely thinks him a chump, and would
have much more respect for any one who
puzzled out the difference between two
shillings and a half crown, even if it took
ten minutes. Marshall Lord*
JOHN 1.. WORSTED IN FIGHT.
Ills Head Cut, His Job Lost and the
Court Holds Him.
From the New York Press.
When Detective Herrlich received a
summons to serve on John L. SullLan,
who once laid claim to the championship
of this and all other known worlds, his
comrades advised him to purchase an ac
cident insurance policy. For months Sul
livan has figured as the manager of a
saloon in the Coleman House, said to be
owned by the Dante’s Inferno Exhibition
Company, of which George 11. Snyder Is
the reputed head.
Pictures lavishly distributed on the
walls entitled the place to its name. Sul
livan’s friends insist that he was to have
had a guarantee i salary ot nineteen
drinks daily and . commission of 25 per
cent, of all handshaking that amounted
to more than $4 an order. He was not to
call the attention of guests to the works
of art until late in the morning.
Two weeks ago John was alone, w'ith
only his .imagination as a companion, and
he began to spell out the various captions
to the pictures on the walls. He didn t
like the mottoes, and departed from the
saloon to advise all his friends to drink
elsewhere. Owing to a growing attack of
aphasia he w’andered hack to his old fa
miliar moving pictures on Tuesday night
and ordered drinks for them all.
“You cannot be served with liquor
here,” replied Snyder with some dignity
and a little fear
• Then he came behind the bar and hit
me four times.” added Snyder, while ap
plying to Magistrate Deuel for a. warrant
for the fighter’s arrest. Snyder added
that he was forced to hit Sullivan with
a bottle in self-defense.
“Come, John, lets go somewhere,"
Herrlich said to Sullivan, whom he found
yesterday at Broadway and Twenty
cighth streets, asking questions of a
lump-post. He produced Sullivan in the
Jefferson Market Court. His head had a
deep gash.
"Were you hurt when struck with a bot
tle?” the justice asked.
“Only because It was an empty one.”
the big fellow mumbled, and became so
noisy that hi3 examination was contin
ued privately. The magistate held Sulli
van in SSOO bail for examination.
