Special 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,
*ald: "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
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
ore 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.”
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
dtamondlferous Island Is kept secret.
The Collls Diamond Syndicate, which
shareholder*. They include Lord Aber-
dare, the Marquess of TweeddaJe, the
Earl 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, a certain Captain Jones, of
Cardifr,- found a collection of precious
stones 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
*et out to locate the Island, having been
Instructed by the diamond expert, Grif
fith, who had valued the stones, how
to win and wash diamonds. Jones set
out for the Island, and In 1897 Griffith
wet him In Capetown, when Jones told
him he had located the Island, and
showed him a quantity of diamonds.
These Griffith valued at $75,000, and
found that they did not come from any
known diamond mine. Jones shortly
afterwards died, but 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, is believed to be
uninhabited. It Is marked on admiral
ty charts, but no one outside the syndi
cate knows how to find It, as Its name
Is a close secret. Jones and Powell
arc 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 Sedan 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 fovm of telephone
box elegant rnough to suit the sur
roundings. The Idea has been taken
up by many fashionable women, who
have reached the ancestrlal 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 elegant piece of furni
ture for a dainty boudoir, , id the un
sightly telephone box or naked trans
mltter and receiver is dispensed with.
An "Anti-Smart Set" movement has
commenced among the best circle, of
English society. It Is headed by the
young Duchess of Norfolk, a high-
principled an<t feayleUs lady,'who ha*
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 Set” them
selves, admitting that many of the
charges he made against them were
true. Now a great effort Is to be made
to purge society of the licentious ele
ments that have brought discredit on
the English aristocracy. 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 oft his house party list
for. Goodwood, 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.
By RAOUL DE SAINT RENE.
Special to The Georgian.
Paris, 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 lasinesH Iv
Paris alone. It seems' that nobody
wants to work these days. The eight-
hour labor day has already been ob
tained, 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 vest.
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
can’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
without 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 hall of the season at her villa of
Monplaislr at Dlnard. Among the
guests were two princesses, seven mar
quises-and five marquises, thirty counts
and as many countesses, fourteen bar
ons 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
ns to which day really should be used
to rest.

chased by the ladles of the church.
This organ Is being built by Henry
PIIcher’H Sons, and In Its scope is
marvel of the modern organ builder's
art Every item of its construction Is
patterned after the most improved
plans used In the best instruments of
this country and Europe. Special care
has been used In the selection of mate
rials, both woodwork and metal, In
order that durability may be procured
and the most pleasing tonal qualities
produced.
While not so large as some other or
gans In the city. Its scheme of com
parative action Is probably not equaled
by any. Front an architectural view
point, the design Is In perfect propor
tion, and the rich gold and bronze pipes
In absolute harmony with the antique
oak and pure white facings of the
beautiful auditorium.
The Instrument will be used for the
first time on Sunday, September 2,

Seaweed which pick, up oysters and
floats away with them wan the subject
of a communication to the Academy of
Science recently. M. Domergue ex
plained how to destroy the bivalve'*
deadly enemy. He explained that title
particular kind of weed Is furnished
with bulbs which at high tide till with
water, but when the water lowers the
bulbs empty and All with air. As the
tide comes In again, the bulbs rise to
the surface, nnd as the weed flourishes
particularly In oyster beds, It carries
off a lot of the oyster, with It. They
float out to sea and are lost. The rem
edy which Is now applied Is to beat the
beds with faggots of thorns at low tide.
This destroys the bulbs and prevent*
the elopement of the oyster.

IT’S A BAD PRACTICE to load up the stomach with a promls-

8TRENGTH WITHOUT BULK Is a requirement of an Ideal food

•There'* a Reason”
can possibly be made to hold In pi
thereon. A very popular way of
ranging the plumes Is fan shape, with
the quills held In a point by a huge
buckle In the center of the front, and
the plumes radiating therefrom toward
the side and back. Others are arranged
fountalnwlse. Instead of falling back
upon the crown and brim, the plumes
are made to stand stiffly up from Just

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.
He says the one nnd only subject of
unfailing Interest is that of matrimo
nial Infidelity. That at evetr dinner,
reception, tea or social gathering to
which you go In Paris the only thing
that the guests talk about Is whether
Madame X, Y or 7. Is unfaithful to her
husband, and whose wife Monsieur A,
n nr C has got a love affair with. If
talk politics," says the writer, "the
hostess tac 'ully change* 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, and In
•these days of superficial educations
there won’t he three people who know
what It Is all about. Moreover, none
of the foregoing topic, are likely to
entertain the ladles. What then . Love

To the Man
Whose Advertising
Is Paying—
If y ou can get better results for your advertising appro
priation you want to' know it. If you cannot get better
results for your money, you want the satisfaction of knowing
that your present investment is paying as well as it can be
made to pay.
M
ANY a successful advertiser feels
that although his advertising is
paying, if he could only eliminate
running waste and the element of chance,
that it would pay better.
And very often that’s true.
If we can show you the way to greater
returns for less money you will be glad
to have us do so.
And we will be just as glad to tell you to
go ahead as you are going now if we find
that your present advertising i3 developed
to the maximum of efficiency.
We offer you, free of charge or obligation, an
opportunity to have your proposition sub
jected to the light of the Lord & Thomas
Record of Results. '
This Record is a tabulation of actual results,
Inquiries and sales known positively to have
been produced by scores of classifications
of selling plans and copy advertising hun
dreds of. different commodities in all good
newspapers and other media.
No matter how successful your advertis
ing is at present the Lord & Thomas
Record of Results may point the way to'
greater returns for less money—the dif
ference to be credited to your profits.
For the Record of Results is a guide to the
three essentials of advertising—plans,
copy, media.
Do you think that your advertising, based
on unrecorded experience, and judgment,
and opinion, would prove 100% right as to
plans, copy and media, when subjected to
the light of the Record of Results?
Our records and tests have in some cases
proved 80S difference in selling power in
favor of copy based on the Record of Re
sults over copy prepared on judgment,
opinion and unrecorded experience.
The waste mediums in lists used by ad
vertisers who have transferred their ac
counts to us has proved as high as 33%.
When you consider these facts can you af
ford to ignore the opportunity we offer you?
It may be, even though your advertising is
paying, that it could be made to pay better.
Or it may be that you are now reaping the
maximum of possible results. Isn't it
worth finding out which is the case?
One of our representatives is in your city
every few days looking after the interests
of some of our present clients. That is
why we are advertising in this newspaper
—to you—NOW.
Wo ask you to write today—granting us
an interview in your office. You will in
no way obligate yourself by asking us to
call.
We are issuing a series of small books (cloth
bound) covering advertising in all its phases,
which we send free to Interested advertisers.
