of good fnith the chaplain had enclosed
a two-dollar bill.
When called upon for an explanation,
the chaplain presented the plea that he
was merely "slumming by mall" and
had meant no harm.
One story is that the department ac
cepted the plea with the statement that
slumming was not covered by the regu

London, July 20. The English press
is suffering from a severe attack of
Americanltia. Scarcely a day passed
without some newspaper chronicling the
arrival of vast armies of multl-mllllon-alres
and their terrible vicissitudes in
their endeavors to find places to rest
their weary heads.
Every man from America who travels
first class is immediately on landing ex
alted to multl-mllllonalredom and is
constantly shadowed by touters for Lon- i
aon tradesmen.
Not even the Americans who "did1
Ascot are exempted. All their move
ments are carefully watched by the
critical eyes of London society, and the
ono great ineme or conversation was
their hypothetical incomes.
The managers of various Atlantic
steamshiD lines are particularly irate
at tne auuuoe or tne London press
and emphasizes the fact that the stories
or overcrowaea snips are doing them
incalculable harm. Even .one of the
most prominent English shipping or
gans, eviaenuy taxing us rue rrom the
dailies, appeared with a cartoon de
picting the difficulties of Atlantic
travel in overcrowded ships.
The opposite is really the case.. and

newspapers, are quite conspicuous by

Beauties la Dead Beat.
Every London season possesses a girl
beauty who la talked about and written
up unui tne young woman's head is
completely- turned and she loses all
powers even of conversing.
Last yar the acknowledged beauty
was Miss Ruby Lindsey. This year Miss
Lindsey has been compelled to take a
back seat- and Miss Mary Cur son and
Miss Marguerite Drexel, daughter of
Mrs. Anthony Drexel, are running a
dead heat) -
The former la the dauarhter of a col
onel of only moderate means, while thej
latter Is admittedly a great heiress. Ther
two girls so far are completely unspoiled
and are firm friends. Artists do not
hesitate to staclare that Miss Cursan la
ib most satXsot typa of XnsUsa beau-
tr seen in Londotu for many years, but
they admit that Miss Drexel s expres
sion makes up for her somewhat irreg
ular features.
Great preparations are being made
for the Drexel ball, which takes place
on July , at Carlton House Terrace.
The rooms will not be overloaded with
flowers nor will there be any lavish ex
penditure but It will probably be the
smartest' ball of the season, always ex
cepting the last Dorchester House ball.
