As a social event it 'was a failure; few found pleasure there as is shown it the eager­ ness of the guests to get away; its chief attraction was the supper table, whicb the guests patronized so freely that many got disgustingly and vulgarly drunk. A half million dollars spent on an affair of that kind portraysthe idiocy of social plutocracy. Anent the Martin affair, strange as it may appear, quite a number of society swells were willing to pay $200 each for their portraits to ap­ pear in a second clasB New York paper, as attendants o > the show -- Ex. IST The rumor that President Cleve­ land after his retirement will devote much time to the st^dy of theology doubtless originated in the popular idea that nothing short of the consolations of religion will avail to ease him of the great burden of failure the last four years have placed upon his shoulders. The American people, not President Cleveland, would seem to be bearing the burden. He will retire from office a wealthy man and will be able to pass the rest of his life in luxury." It will be easy for him to meditate, in the Beclusion of a well appointed and well stocked library upon the problems of the hereafter. But the people who, as a consequence of his blundering and disastrous policy, find the struggle for existence almost beyond tjbeir strength, are not likely to be up- Jifted by his growth in spirituality.
