News & Views ow The Navy Estimates. I It vs rumoured (says a Parliamen- tary writer to-day) that the Navy Esti- ma-too may reach the unprecedented total of £ 50,000,000. l'hat gigantic figure may very well cause Ministerial concern. The Gathering on Arran. I Ministers would Jaave met under Mr. Illingworth's hospitable roof even if there had been no Ulster campaign (says the Daily Chromcle Parliamen- tary correspondent). In point of fact, Mr. Asquith and Mr. Lloyd George had before Parliament rose accepted Mi-. Illingworth's invitation to 6peiid a few days with him in the Isle of Arran. The Ulster "General." I As a "babe in these matters" a correspondent writes to the Press in- quiring w hether General Sir George luchurdson, who has been appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Ulster Volunteer Force, draws a pension for his meritorious services in the English Army; and if so has he resigned the same, or dees he still draw it? I Acting and the Play. I Do we not in these days under-rate acting as a f actor in dr-ama? Mr. E. A. Baughan, the critic, who asks the question, proceeds: All the energies of the critics are centred on analysing plays, and if they do not stand an analysis they are condemned. In the old daylSo acfamg was considered the chief factor in drama. You will read more about acting in the oriiicisms and ap- preciations of Lamb, Haalitt, and Geo. Henry Lewes than about drama itself. I Coif -in Tabloids. I Is a game of golf switched by a busy man in mid-week really of good to him? If he has to rush to the links and to play against the clock, a "Times" writer thinks it âs not. "The golfer in his dash for a snatched round is always," he says, "pressed for time, and this at once brings on an attack of "pressing," for the nerves and the temper of a. man new from a day's work are not likely to be at their best and brightest. Michmaelmas Day. I September Z\) is Michaelmas Uqy only in the Western Church; for it is on November 8 that the Greek Church commemorate,s St. Michael, St. Gabriel, and All Angels. To some members of that Church the archangel is still a visibly present reality. Mr. J. C. Law son tells us that in the ex- treme south of Greece the people be- lieve that he may be seen, drawn sword in hand, passing to and fro at the mouth of the caves of Taenarus (Cape Matapan), the best-known en- trance to the underworld, whereby Heracles brought up Cerberus. I The Aspirate Again. .1 i I I 1. I 'I surely tnis utterance ot a caLneoraj guide achieves a record in the misuse of the letter "H." Quoth be "This, ladies and gentlemen, is the halabastor heffigy of Habraham, in the hact of hollering up Hissac upon the altar. It was gave to the Cathedral in the year heighteen 'uudred and heighty height." But a conversation overheard at the Oval a few weeks ago runs it very close:— "W,y, this 'ere Surrey's the team of Haitches?" "Ow do you make that hout?" "Ow? Wy, dont they 'ave 'Ayrrard, 'Obbs, 'Ayes, 'Olland, and 'Itch?' I Sir Edward Ccek and the Conference. I I ig the new number or the Oon-1 I temporary Review," Sir Edward Cook I offers some judicial and sagacious com- I' ments upon the conference idea. He admits the obstacle of Sir Edward Car- j son's irreconcilable attitude, but seeing at the same time -the embarrassment which it constitutes for the Unionist I Party, he emphasises the enormous scope for adjustment and compromise which they would find, if they sought it, in any Home Rule settlement. The notes of Mr. Gladstone's introductory I speech in 1893 are quoted to illustrate the heads under which such bargaining might take place. But the initiative I must come from the Unionist side. I Merry Life of the Village. I I learned from the daughter of a farmer in one of the quiet dales between the Wharfe and the Yore (writes a cor- respondent of the "Manchester Guar- dian") the reason why we had lost our handmaid, who had come to us from these parts. It had proved too quiet in our manufacturing town. I understood perfectly when my pnetty informant gave me her pro- gramme for the next fourteen days. Three village feasts, choir practices, two concerts, two shows, a sale, and a visit from "the candidate" would draw- the mind from any of our seven picture palaces, and, with the long evenings i coming on and prospective dances draw- ing near,I saw the uselessness of tempt- ing maids from this quiet and cheerful I country to our noisy, lonely streets. I People Outside the Pale. I The Church Times" is delighted at the Bishop of St. Asaph's action in refusing to co-operate wuth the mem- bers of the Bible Society's Local Asso- ciation. The Church Times" would like to see this episcopal boycott widely imitatod; Not only do we think the Bishop of St. Asaph is right, but we also wish that his example might be followed elsewhere. So long as this hateful I agitation in the interest of Dissent is maintained, it should be made quite clear that it is not possible to regard Dissenters as desirable associates in common undertakings. But those who accept this advice (says the "Westminster Gazette") will not be able to stop short at Dissenters. There is the Bishop of Oxford, for in- stance, who. voted for the second read- ing of the Welsh Church Bill. Clearly he will have to be regarded as outside I the Anglican pale, as well as these wicked disestablishment Dissenters. I The New Behn Books. I "Bohn's Popular Library," the I first volumes of which were published with such singular sucoess in tho spring is making steady progress, and lovers I of good bookj) will welcome Messrs. Bellb' announcement of the addition of a further 20 volumes to the series—the latest development of Henry George Bohn's enterprise in founding the now famous "Bohn's Libraries." The new volumes are: The- Early Diary of Frances Burney, 1768-1778, two volumes; Carlyle's History of the French Revolution, with introduction by J.
