Distinguished Pilgrims on this side are setting the example. To this end, an Information bureau has been started in order to put every member so desirous in touch with a round of golf, a game of tennis or polo or rackets, a days shooting or fishing, or a car ride as far as the present regulation supply of petrol allows. An American bar adds to the verisimilitude of the scheme, and an expert dispenser of the Bacchic mysteries has been put in charge ; while the lounges and the library are already reeking with all the best and liveliest periodicals of both hemispheres.

P. Collins, London correspondent of the Boston Transcript. As such the king and queen opened It with a visit of inspection and approval without formality, and declared their pleasure that it had retained the homelike atmosphere. That, in a word, is the main charm of the place, and the donor, Lord Leconfield, has added sunshine to daylight by making the gift complete, for he has put not only his house but Its contents at the disposal of the committee concerned. Leconfield house is favored in its situation. It backs upon old Chesterfield house, where the writer of the famous (and infamous) letters .kept Doctor Johnson waiting on the mat a century and a half ago, until the great Samuel turned in his wrath and indited a letter which Is, worth all his lordships epistles combined. You may read in these same epistles all about the glories of Chesterfield house and what it was meant to be; but it cannot compare for comfort with its neighbor, and a club without this quality of comfort Is no club at all. It stands off Curzon street, the street where Smollett starved, Disraeli died, and Becky Sharp cut a fashionable and dashing figure before her great collapse. It is the high street of Mayfair, which is the most privileged and cozy of our London parishes, because it skirts the best end of Piccadilly and the royal quarters, and puts you within five minutes of Whitehall and everywhere that matters, by means of a pleasant saunter across the green park. Lord Leconfield is a nephew of Lord Rosebery, and a cousin to the late George Wyndham, the courtly statesman and critic. His lordship is a pleasant blend of both these Interesting figures, except that he has never shown the Primrose Earls turn for graceful oratory, and revealed compensating good sense by leaving politics practically alone. He has served in the First Life Guards and commanded the Sussex Imperial Yeomanry ; besides which he saw fighting In South Africa, and got a Wound there. All his proclivities are for travel and sport. He inherits from the third Earl of Egre-moall the glorious Turners at his chief country seat, Petworth in Sussex, and his family have always had an eye for a good picture. It Is all the more gratifying and generous, therefore, that in handing his town house over, he has left his ancestors and their friends undisturbed upon the walls ; so that the new inmates for so long as the wTar may last, and perhaps a little beyond, will find stately company in some of the master Portraits by Van Dyck and Sir Peter nt best-know- THLOlf? valuable library, especially a certain case whose contents are worth their weight, as the saying g)es; and in front of this, as a suitable screfen or e cover, they placed a portrait of another famous Pilgrim, Lord Roberts, and no more popular figure than Bobs could grace an assemblage of service men. The committee made further alterations in the same key. They stored much of the costlier and more cumbrous furniture and replaced it with an ample supply of cozy armchairs and lounges. And with a shrewd eye to their surroundings, as well as the caliber of the men who are to put them to use, the committee have seen that everything imported, whether for use or ornament, answers to the demands of taste as well as utility, with the result that every room, from the dining room to the card rooms and the office, looks as if it were planned in the piece, and a member of this new club, therefore, can invite a guest with the feeling that he is doing the honors of a great house and not a compromise between a hotel and an institution. There is nothing of the stereotyped or codified caravanserai about Leconfield house. life-siz- This very generosity, however, was an occasion of misgivings, for the rarities and that make for distinction and interest in a private abode ffiay be redundancies or even a nuisance in a club. When Lord as an old Pilgrim and a Leconfield, founder, by the way asked his brother Pilgrims to take the place and the scheme in nand, he gave them carte blanche to uo as they would with the furniture td belongings. They boarded up the arrangement. The first thing that struck me as I entered was the grouping of colors at the head of the staircase, and this sight Union Jack and the of a Stars and Stripes blent in the vividest and newest of silk and in complete repose, took on a healthy aspect of permanence. Usually in London you above our sec them flying mast-higbirth on a royal buildings see to but of or Fourth the July, day the of this them grouped like everyday week about the bust of Pallas, goddess of defense, at the head of the handsome main staircase, lent a touch of delicious completeness to everything. The, same thoroughness has been carried out in the fitting of the billiard tables, with an eye to the fine points of difference between the American and the English game ; and upstairs on the bedroom floor, every touch is there to remind a guest on waking that he is not roughing it in a dug-obut takvast deal home. nearer ease a his ing All this dawmed upon you without enforcement during an Invitation visit the other cfay, and the. quality of the lunch and its presentment were sufficient reassurance as to the cuisine, the service and the cellar. Mr. Harry n E. Brittain, perhaps' the Pilgrim, presided as chairman of the club and the hardest worker in connection with it, and he showed in his remarks of welcome how enthusiastically the project has caught on with his brother members ever since Lord set the ball He spoke of the everlasting debt of gratitude he owed Americans since the day when he landed on your shores, an adventure-loving Oxford graduate twenty years ago, only to find, apparently, that America had no conception what the word stranger meant. He added that he was ambitious, he and his fellow promoters, of making the club a link of the highest value between the twro countries and the two services a means of repaying the great and many kindnesses that British visitors have received out West and a medium of sympathy not merely In connection with the war but everything else that men today. appeals to well-hun- g . h nest-know- n the Without any conscious effort whatsoever in this direction, the committee has certainly contrived a result which leaves no room for qualms as to the hospitable effect produced. It is recorded of the last Earl of Egremont already mentioned as the patron of Turner and Constable and many a great artist besides, that on his recovery from illness he celebrated the fact by entertaining four thousand people to dinner, and such was his reputation as a host, that half again this number of his humbler neighbors attended in addition ; nor were they mistaken in their man, for He sent out orders at once and made room for them all. In a house where such large ' traditions reign, it would be out of place to put the new inmates to any Inconvenience or uneasiness as to terms, so there is to be no subscription, and though it is cpnsidered wise to institute a modest scale of tariff charges, It would come nearer the aims and Ideals of the committee to offer open house if this were possible. As one of the committee said to me, We want to lose money on it, instead of making it, and this expresses the originating idea in an appropriate spirit. There is to be no embargo upon membership. So long as a man holds a commission in the United States army or navy he is a welcome member during his stay in this country, and the hope is, as the membership grows, to make the scheme keep pace with the demand by bringing neighboring houses Into the scheme, with Leconfield house as headquarters and a social center. But the ruling Idea Is not limited to Mayfair or even to London by any means. It is hoped, and all the evidence are tending to Justify that hope, that the club will prove a stepping- - CARS PERFECT IDENTIFICATION Thera can never be any question about ownership, when an animal shows a Perfect Ear Tafr, with number of animal and name and address of owner stamped thereon.

THOUGHT WILL RULE WORLD Scientist Asserts Ships at Sea Will Be Controlled From Shore and Gasoline Will Be Grown Like Corn. In the lobby of a big Fifth avenue club one evening recently, a group of scientific men were discussing the war as being the necessity that will bring about some startling inventions, notes a New York correspondent. If the sprinkling of intellectural lumlnatl were not stamped by genius, it is probable that an ordinary bystander would have tapped his forehead knowingly. One of them was telling about a who Is already telephoning to airplanes without wires. And another, quoted a famous inventor who said that It would only be a short while' until all telephone wires would be abolished as unessential. The fact Is, he said, that telephone wires do not In reality carry our messages. Every scientist knows that. Back of it all Is the great process of thought which we are only beginning feebly to understand. The more we delve Into this process of thought whatever tt is the more we come to the conclusion that' the material phenomena is the projection of thought. We konw that ev-- ! ery material thing comes from a thought or an Idea. We are arriving at the conclusion that even space Is thought, for we are annihilating space every day through a thinking process. It will not be many generations before every ship at sea is. controlled by thought from shore. Our trains are going to be run1 without fuel, and we are going to grow gasoline just like we raise corn. scl-enti- st -' The executive committee sees in the proposed opening of the Juarez plant the placing of a premium upon confiscattle by cation of American-owneMeican bandits and the opening of a door through which these Mexican cattle rustlers could easily dispose of the confiscated stock at a handsome profit and to the exclusion of possible redress by the rightful American owners. The convention opened its first session with an attendance of more than 600 delegates from this and other states. The duty of the American livestock men is to see to it that the nation at large is supplied to the fullest extent with meats and meat products and at the same time to observe due regard for the law of which demands that he preCenter of Fashion. serve his industry, was tlie subject of Paris, the center of the worlds fasha stirring address before the opening annual con- ions, has no fewer than 60,000 women session of the twenty-firs- t National dressmakers, not counting designers American vention of the Livestock association by Frank J. and fitters, which would bring the Hagenbartli, former president of this number up to close on 100,000.
