His Lateit Undcct of Tips Contains Some
That Aro Verj Interesting.
Both Bolcravia and Bohomia, not to
Bay tho church and stage, will bo great
ly intorestod in tho nowsol two engage
ments about to bo announced.
Now, I want to profaco my voicing of
tho rumor by declaring that I know
both engagements will bo emphatically,
even violently, denied, bnt that is only
tho proper caper now.
I hear that Mrs. Faran Su.ens is to
marry Mr. Albert Morris Bagby.
Now, nobody needs enlightenment as
to
Mrs. Paran Stovcns, but thero may
bo a fow forlorn folks whose social en
cyclopedia contains no reference to Al
bert Morris Bagby.
Nevertheless ho is a charminc chan.
of whom tho women always speak 03
'that dcarlittlo Bagby.'
Ho is a western born man of really
oriental tact and finesse.
Ho gives music lessons, having been
tho favorito pupil par excellence of
Liszt, and incidentally ho gives the
swcllest mnsicales of tho season at tho
Waldorf nt $5 a ticket
Ho has charming maimers and has
just completed a novel on tho romantio
lifo at Weimar of his ereat teacher, tho
Abbo Liszt
Ho has attained a really enviable po
sition in tho gennino hant-mondo solely
by his gentle breeding and his immense
diplomacy, and nobody but his rivals
will wish him aught but -lots of plums
in his wedding cake.
Tho other engagementthat will soon
bo announced is that of Miss Olive
Chamberlin and young Harper, son of
a member of the great publishing house.
The very namo of Harper is synony
mous with Methodism and millions,
and Miss Chamberlin is tho daughter
of that popular all round sport and
'nature's nobleman," John ' Chamber
lin.
Sho is a superb young woman still in
her teens, of tho Junoesquo typo of beau'
ty and inheritinji tho magnetic charm
of her mother, who was the brilliant,
beautiful Emily Thome, sister of the
lato Charles R. Thorne, Jr.
Tho stamp of approval) of MissCham-
bcrlin's beauty and chicbears tho Hall
mark of such connoisseurs as George
Work, Georgo do Forest Grant and
Francis Sykcs, and sho-is asibrilliant as
sho is beautiful.
I am requested toideny authoritative
ly that Mrs. E. Berry Wan contem
plates going on tho -comic opera stage,
or that sho is even, considering tho offer
mauo her by a woll known impresario.
To bo sure, sho is taking singing les
sons and is cultivating her voico with
really fervid dcrvotion;lbut, bless you,
so is E. Berry himself.
io, Mrs. Wall will; not appear on
any stage, not even tbu amateur, this
year. Cholly Knickerbocker in New

"THE MATCHMAKING QUEEN

that tho poorer-princes of tho Younger
branches of tho royal houso of Eng
land ought to marry into iho wealthy
aristocracy of Great Britain as Prince
Adolphus of Teck has just dime.
This young man has certaiily'dane a

tho richest peer in England. Fcwpeo

THE SCHOOL BOOKS.
Statement of Saving That flight Have
Been Made by Exchange.
The following statement, by Jacob G.
Stevenson, county superintendent of I
schools in Lane county, is published in
the Eugene Register. No man has bet
ter knowledge of tho facts than Mr. Stev
enson, and no man is more clearly above
tho reach of biased representations or I
improper influence of every kind. Any
statement ho makes is entitled always to
the fullest credit. It may now be seen
what was lost to Oregon by the refusal to
mako certain changes. We give Mr.
Stevenson's statement in full, viz:
In the selection of school books for nse
in the public rchools for tbe next six
years, better books or books" equally as
Rood, could have been secured at no cost
of exchange and mnch saving in retail
price. It is calculated that one-third of
all books used each year are purchased
ner, and two-thirds are'old books, in the
hands of pupils, and we Genre on this
basis :
Readers now in use and readopted :
Two sets in hands of punilp, cost ... $ 00
One set, retail price, cost 6 00
Total cost, three sets $3 00
New readers:
Two sets, exchange price, cost $ 00
One set, introduction price, cost.... 1 08
Total cost, three Feta $1 98
Difference in favor of exchange 1 02
The last is a reader full as good and
much better bound, and one which re
tails for 25 cents less per set than the
ones now in use.

The new series are the latest and best,
and the beet-bonnd boos on the market,
The old book is very poorlv bound and
sells at retail per set ot two books at
$1.90, while tbe new book sells per set of
two books at $1.20.
In the matter of grammar the Ameri
can Book Company publishes tnose in

adopted, three books:

Reed and Kellovtrs grammars are con
sidered among the be?t in the United
States, and according to Dr. Chapman, a
dist5njmisbcd examiner, superior to Max
well's-. It was claimed by the agent of
tho American Book Company that Max-
well's lirct two books wonld be sufficient
for the common school, bnt this is not
true. Every pupil who finishes the
course will be compelled to buy all three
books.

WHAT IS THE LABOR QUESTION?
The money question is also the
labor qnestion. Any considerable
change in tho volume and consequent
value of money at once affects tho
prices of all forms of property, and
this affects labor that produces prop,
erty. If money is raised in valae, or
appreciated to the gold standard,
prices on all tho prod acts of labor
mnst come down in tho'snmo propor
tion. Falling pricea'destroy profits.
and withont profits labor cannot be
em ployed. Banning this downward
circle further, we 6eo that labor un
employed cannot purchnse good;,
however cheap; so unemployed labor
and falling prices go side by side on
a downward road to rnin, andtbis is
brought about by decreasing or
boarding or otherwise catting off the
volume of circulating money. The
remedy is to increase instead of de
crease the yolnme of money.
The money qnestion is the property
and labor question. Proporty values
and prices rest on money. Profits
and enterprises rest on money. Em
ployment of laborers rest on money
money on one side, property and
labor on tbe other. As one end of
the lever goes np the other comes
down. Let property aud labor be
heard in financial legislation. Prop
erty and labor have too long been
silent on the money question. This
qnestion is the greatest of all Iegis-
lahve questions, however much the
upholders of our present system may
seek to belittle discussion and inves
tigation, and cast ridicule and epi
thets on those who would improve
the system. All sj stems of robbery
have expected their advocates to cry
out against refrom, and say, "let us
alone, let us alone," or if any change
is desired, leave it to us. to make the
necessary change.
The question now arises, What
shall be the money of our people T
Shall tbe domination of gold, which
is bat another term for the domina
tion of the holders of gold, be con
tinued to the detriment of public and
private interests? Lego.
