A correspondent of the London Chron icle reports tbnt the spray and the tric kle wore sejfegunrds against tho Yan kees. No American tourists, ho wan told, can sco n hotel cako of soap with out putting it In Ills pocket, provided bo is unobserved. "They nro n splen did people to deal with," said one of tho hotel keepers, "but unchained, port bio soap Is their undoing." "That tnntter of soap Is ono of tho international quarrels of innnnerK," ob serves the Chronicle. "The whitest American Is ns dishonest about it cake of soap as tho blackest of his com pntrlols Is about chickens. He .will steal iinylmiVy's cake of soap.
