papers say: 'President Wilson an-

Thursday (this conference was Wed-

nesday evening) and deliver a mes-

sage urging the repeal of the Panamacanal tolls exemption section.'

"A hint js believed to have beentaken from the historical fact thatthe Monroe doctrine was originally in-

spired by England. The president issaid to realize that the Mexican tan-

gle has brought about almost a par-allel situation with that which existedwhen President Monroe announced hispolicy.

,"As a result an agreement is saidto have been reached with GreatBritain under which the two countrieswill' stand together against any Euro-

pean attempt to test out the Monroedoctrine in Mexico." .

Senator Jones asked immediate con-

Paris, March i8. The appearanceof armed detachments of republicanguards posted at strategic poiuts ofParis today added to the tense excite-ment aroused among the various poli-

tical factions by the assassination of

Gaston Calmette, editor of the Figaro.At every point where there was

likelihood of trouble the police were

supported by soldiers.The offices of the Figaro, the cham-

ber of deputies, the residence of M.

Caillaux and the Saint Lazare prison,where Mme. Caillaux has occupied acell since she killed the editor, weremagnets which attracted the populacetoday. In the souUem part of Paris,in the Latin quarter and in the work--

quarters, where it is only necessaryfor a turbulent individual to shriek"Death to Caillaux" or "Assassin" forhim to be joined by dozens of others,the police ' kept ssealous watch. Several times they cleared away noisygroups, which as soonas the police had passed.

railway and certain private boat lineson Puget Sound and between the

Great Northern railroad and other in-

dependent boat lines on Puget Sound,

was contained in a decision today bythe interstate commerce commission

affecting the transportation of shin-

gles from Washington Btate points toeastern destinations.

From waterlocked shingle mills on

the west side of Puget Sound, the StPaul road made joint rates to the east

higher than the terminal rates apply-

ing from the mills at Seattle, and, thedecision says, shrdunk its revenue sev-

en and half cents by paying a division

of the rate to boat lines, which wereowned and operated by the shinglemills.

To meet that situation the GreatNorthern entered into an arrangementwith other independent boat linesfrom waterlocked shinslo mills which

"gave' to tile water- lines 'seven, andone-hal- f cents per hundred pounds out

of the terminal rates.""The waste of transportation in

hauling' frafiic from Edmonds to' Seattle and back through Edmonds by theGreat Northern, cannot be justified by

the facts of the actual operation so

skillfully concealed in the tariffs. Our

order of suspension will be vacated,but in coming to this conclusion itmust be understood thai we do so

solely because of the facts here dis-

closed," said the commission.

SENATOR JONES SO ASSERTS IN

A SPEECH ON TOLLS EX-

EMPTION MOVE

SAVED raiOf DOCTRINE

EXECUTIVE'S ACTION WAS TAKEN

BECAUSE OF STRESS OFCIRCUMSTANCES

PREVENTED INTERVENTION

THIS COUNTRY'S POLICY TOWARD

MEXICO PRESERVED BY

THE DEAL

Washington, March 18. The broadcharge that President' Wilson determ-ined to ask congress to repeal thePanama tolls exemption as a conse-

quence of hia recent conference withSir Lionel Carden, British minister toMexico, and that the president's ac-- i

tion was the culmination of negotia-tions with Great Britain for the pres-ervation of the Monroe doctrine,threatened by the Mexican situation,was made in the senate today by Sen-- 'ator Jones, republican of Washington.He was speaking on his pending reso-lution calling on the president for fullinformation on the tolls controversy.

Senator Jones intimated that a re-

peat of the tolls exemption was theprice of m Mexicoby Other foreign powers.-

He further declared that "it is re-

ported as one of the conditions thatGreat Britain seek reparation on itslosses through confederate bonds is-

sued during the civil war, a plansanctioned by this government underwhich, if successfully applied, theburden of"reparation: will fall on thesouthern states." For that reportSenator Jones hinted, developmentshad shown there was a basis.

"What is the foreign policy that re-

quires such humiliating, cowardly,craven action on our part?" the sena-tor demanded. "What are the deli-

cate matters that demand this hu-

miliation, this price? Have we be-

come so inert, so weak, so supine, goservile, that the Monroe doctrine mustbe sustained and invigorated by thevery powers against which it was in-

voked? Are we so weak or so en-

tangled in the meshes of our owmtfi-ploinac- y

that the demands of Englandbased on the selfish interests of theCanadian Pacific Railroad companymust be granted., right or wrong?Have any nations besides England ob-

jected to the legislation It is proposedto repeal? These are questions thatmust be answered to the satiefactigonof the American people."

Senator Jones quoted from Presi-dent Wilson's speeches in

n attempt to show that the chiefexecutive then favored the exemption.Senator Jones argued that a repeal"would be a "great economic blunder,"that it would "benefit the CanadianPacific railroad, Canadian interestsand the transcontinental lines, and no

other, and harm more or less everyother interest in this country. Hecontended that the exemption contra-vened no treaty obligations, either inletter or in spirit, and, therefore, no

question of national honor was in-

volved. -

"Thn resident's - messaee." saidSenator Jones, "is not only remarkaDlii

for the lack of facts, dearth of reasonand sublime assurance of the schoolmaster that the boys will do what hewants, but it is more remarkable inits conclusion. He says:

" 'I ask this of you, in support of

the foreign policy of the administra-tion.'

"What are 'other matters of greaterdelicacy and nearer consequences?'That this legislation is a part of anunderstanding, expressed or tacitlyImplied, relating to Mexico, la shown

by the words of the message and bythe circumstances surrounding its de-

livery. It has been repeatedly an-

nounced that no mefiaaRO would be

dent to congress on the tolls question.A British subject was murdered 'inMexico, by rebel authorities, whom

GRAND JURY INVESTIGATINGMAY DECIDE TO INDICT

SOME OF THEM

New York, March 18. The grandjury investigation, which had beenknown as the "inquiry Into thecharges against John Burke," is muchwider in scape than tnis phrasing im-

plies, it was learned today at the of-

fice of H. Snowden Marshall, theUnited States district attorney. Burke,suspended chief of the commissarydepartment of the Panama railroad,is charged with having accepted bon-

uses from companies to which wereawarded tontracts for supplies.

It is now hinted that the investiga-tion will end either in the exonerationof Burke or. in the indictment of anumber , of ?one officials. There is,however, no prospect of immediate de-

velopments, according to Mr. Mar-

shall, although he held a conferencetoday with Colonel Goethals, which, itwas eald, might precipitate the broad-

er inquiry.

Washington, March 18. FormerRear Admiral P, T. Bowles, presidentof the Fore River Shipbuilding com-pan-

by committee today that he engaged0. W. DeKnight, a lawyer, in connec-

tion with a movement to defeat thatsection of the Panama act whichwould exclude railroad-owne-d ship'sfrom the canal and not to work forthe inclusion of a tolls exemption, as

DeKnight recently testified. Bowlesput his correspondence with DeKnighton the subject in evidence. Bowles

testified he employed DeKnight,. to

furnish information and avoid delays.Senator Overman asked l, Bowles

Undue Curiosity, if Gratified, WouldInevitably Develop a Race

of Fatalists.

To find that the earth Itself is but aqueer little appanage of a rather secon-

d-rate star; to know by actual visionthat we are all plunging throughspace, perchance, during the period ofknown history, having accomplished asmall arc of some immense orbitwhose magnificent center burns be-

yond the farthest nebulae; to feel thatstars have flamed and died whose lighthas never reached us is not all thisknowledge a fierce incitement to ourdeBire? Whither are we bound, andwhy? What fate awaits us at the end ofthe awful journey? Are we placedamidst this mighty universe for a pur-pose, to watch, to wonder, to worship?Is the whole scheme built round us, eothat, though we are not its physicalcenter, we may be its spiritual center,and for us all its tremendous opera-tions are carried on, for us its st

mysteries shall some day bedisclosed? Or are we the subject of atrifling experiment by great unknowngods, who, curious in their turn, spyat us for their diversion, and will ina moment destroy it all, as a childwipes out a drawing on his slate?

We eay unthinkingly that we wishwe knew the answers to these ques-tions. But, if we did, he keen savorof life would vanish; curiosity killed,we should become utter fatalists, andthat would be the end of usk For thethought that by increased knowledgecomes access of power, and that wecan, even to ever so eligbt an extent,shape the future to our will and thusbear our part in the destiny of human-ity, is the inspiration of all thinkers,the burden of all philosophers, and thebelief of all the great dreamers whohave moved the world.'

ANXIOUS TO AIR NEW WORD

Norwegian Guide Seized Opportunityto Make Use of Knowledge He

Had Recently Acquired.

"The guides who pilot visitors aboutin Norway," said a returned traveler,"are a pleasant, intelligent set of men.They speak our language fairly well,and are always anxious to pick up newwords.

"Occasionally this desire leads 'to

funny mistakes. While exploring someof the wild and precipitous cliffs oneday with my guide, we came upon aspot which looked like an abandonedquarry.

" 'What is this, Karl?' I asked. 'Havethey been getting out stone here?'

"'Yes, sir,' he answered; 'it iswhere some time ago they have beenshooting the rocks.'

"'Oh, yes; blasting,' I said, with asmile, and Karl's quick ears caughtthe new word for 'shooting.' I heardhim murmuring to himself two or threetimes afterwards. -

"The next day our journey broughtus into a large tract of magnificentforest. 'Karl,' said I, 'there ought tobe fine hunting here in the season.'

" 'Yes, sir,' was the prompt reply,'very good hunting.' Then, with theair of a man who seizes an opportunity, he added, proudly, 'Indeed, itis near hero, sir, that we blast manybears.' "

Archbishop's Hospitality.London in the eighteenth century

did not afford so many free shows asat present, but visitors Vho knew theropes could then obtain at least one

sumptuous dinner for nothing. Theauthor of "Le Guide de Londres pourles Voyageurs Etrangers," published1710, writes: "If you feel disposed todine well without unloosing yourpursestrings, and at the same time re-

ceive a hearty welcome, go and seemy lord 'the archbishop of Canterbury,who keeps opentouse at Lambethevery Saturday, and is most cordialto foreigners, especially if they bemen of letters. It Is advisable to ar-

rive at my lord archbishop's palacenot later than noon, so as to be presented without any difficulty. Sendyour name In to one of the chaplainswho will present you to my lord, andafter dinner will show you the treasures of the library." , , ,

Early Attracted by Books.Andrew Lang the best prose writer

of the age, according to many criticstook to Che printed page almost as

instinctively as a duckling takes towater. "About the age of four," herelates, "I learned to read by a simpleprocess. I had heard of the elegy ofCock Robin until I knew it by rote,and I picked out. the letters and wordswhich compose that classic till I couldread it for myself. ... A nurserylegend tells that as a child I used toarrange six open books on six chairs,and go. from one to the other perusingthem by turns. No doubt this waswhat people call 'desultory reading,'but I did not hear the criticism tilllater, and then too often for my comfort."

Just Suited Him.Little James has been reared strict

lowed him abundant latitude. At last,however, she felt compelled to remon-strate.

"Jamie, dear," she said gently, "I!

other like that they will full down

presently, and we shall have a terri-ble time."

MOST VENOMOUS OF LEECHES

Scientists of Java Have ExperienceWith the Deadliest Kind of This

Particularly Loathsome Creature.

Dr. Andrles Verhagen of Batavla,Java, was directed by the governmentof the Netherlands to go to th easternend of Sumatra to study a terrible epi-

demic of beri-ber- l which had brokenout there. The 6hlp in which he sailedwas wrecked, and he and a young as-

sistant offered to go into the interiorto Beek assistance.

For about ten minutes they struggled through a dense and swampy jun-

gle. Suddenly the younger man criedout with pain. Going to his aid, Doc-

tor Verhagen noticed three leetches at-

tached to his arm. They were of a

venomous variety that cling to thelower branches of the bushes awaitingtheir prey and, not content with gorg-

ing themselves on blood, inject intothe wound a poison that causes acutepain. t

While Doctor Verhagen was helpinghis assistant innumerable leeches at-

tached themselves to his face andneck. To free him from them theyoung man bad to scrape his ekin witha sharp stone. Exhausted by loss ofblood, the doctor managed to crawlback to the wreck of the ship, wherehe fainted. He was taken to a hos-

pital the following day and it was sev-eral weeks before he recovered. Oneof his eyeballs wae totally destroyedby the terrible leeches, its socket be-

ing left empty.

No reply. Snub No. 3.

"I take it that you have never visited this section before?" was remarkedAfter the silence had lasted for a mile.

"No.""Bet I trust you will And novelty

and pleasure." ,

Miss Bessie looked straight aheadnd shut her teeth hard. What was

It to one of Colonel Long's hired menwhether she enjoyed the west or not?The man was presumptuous, and shemeant her silence to be another snub.Whether it was taken or not, it wasnot more than five minutes before avoice which had a touch of the pater-nal in it remarked:' "You don't look overly well, and a

couple of montha flf. this bracing at-

mosphere will do. yoq a world of good.""Sir, are you a practicing physi

cian?" asked Miss Bessie, ae sheturned to look the yoing man squareIn the eyes.

"Well, no," he slowly replied."Then you need not bother to take

charge of my health."That was what the boys would have

called a settler, and it hung the youngman up for the next ten minutes.When he spoke again, however, it wasas if nothing had happened.

"It was on that hill over there," hequietly said, as he pointed with hiswhip, "that four of our men were sur-- 'rounded by fifty Indian warriors two

years ago."Miss Bessie deliberately turned to

look in the opposite direction, and shefelt that he was smiling as he con-

tinued."One of the boys was killed, but

they killed twelve Indians and heldtheir ground all day."

What was it to her whether one orthe whole four cowboys were killed?Indeed, she found herself almost wish-

ing that all had been wiped out Shehadn't the slightest interest in the af-

fairnot that day.""And over there in that valley is

where a drove of steers ran over andtrampled the life out of two of ourmen last spring. We didn't even findtheir boots,"

Miss Bessie looked straight aheadand made no reply.

"And you wouldn't believe, would

you, that Oils Insignificant creek weare crossing was a mile wide and tenfeet deep laet May? We lost a thouMmS head of stock in that flood."

Still no reply. It was snub afternub, and she meant to tire him out

BOOK FRAUD

ON TRIAL

FOUR MEN ARE ACCUSED OF SEL-

LING RARE VOL..UMES DE LUXE

Boston, March 18. After dodgingthe law for more than two years fourof the book agents who were Indictedin 1912 for complicity in the alleged

,"de luxe" book frauds were placed on

trial today in the Suffolk superiorcriminal court Several of those alleg-ed to have been the prime movers inthe "de luxe" book swindle have beenconvicted in New York and with thedisposal of the cases now on, trial thegovernment believes that it will haveput an end for all time to one of themost gigantic frauus ever perpetratedin America.

It is believed that the "de luxe"swindle netted its promoters morethan $5,000,000 within a few years.The fraud was first brought to the at-

tention of the authorities in 1912, whena rich widow of Salt Lake City broughta civil action and obtained a verdictof nearly $50,000 on alleged "rare" vol- -

lumes which she had purchased fromthe promoters of the scheme. The disclosures made during the trial of thissuit led to an investigation and subsequent indictments and arrests.

Book experts testified that thebooks sold by the gang wore worthonly h to h ofthe prices charged. The alleged fraudconsisted in the deception of personswith more money than knowledge ofbooks who wished to buy their librar-ies ready made. They were approached by representatives of tbe gang andinformed that they could purchasesome rare volumes exquisitely boundwhich would be a pride to any book

collection, but must, of coune, be prepared to pay a very high pria It was

represented that the books were worksof great rarity and of limited editions,and in some cases that they were au-

tographed by their authors, s a mat-ter of fact, there was nothing' at aH

extraordinary in the books tl emselves,and though their bindings were ex-

pensive they cost but a small part of

the; prices placed on them.One method adopted by the salesmen

was to make prospective customersbelieve that a millionaire was in active nfgolintioDfor the set r.nder con-

sideration, and that unless the bargainwas closed at once the books must goto complete the library of a well-know- n

book lover. This usually worked well with the person who was buying his library by the yard, and ordinarily was quite sufficient to clinchthe bargain.

Many well-know- n people throughoutthe country are saltl to have fallenvictims to the swindle. Mrs. JamesA, Patten of Chicago, wife of thewheat and cotton operator, Is satd tohave paid $30,000 for some of the'rare" volumes. Mrs. Duraml, wife ofthe founderof Wellesley college, gaveuip $100,000 to the book agents, anda wealthy man of Greensburg, Pa., issaid to have been victimized to thetune of $150,000.

The four agents placed on trialhere today are said to have been In

charge of the New England territrory.

PLAYER WITH THE FOUR ARTISTS

SECURED INSTRUMENT BY

GOOD FORTUNE

Th eoucert of the Four Artists, to

be given tonight at the Duncan operahouse on the Y. M. C. A. lyceumcourse, will begin promptly at 8:15

o'clock. Holders of ticke'ts are re-

quested to be present at that time.

Ralph Parlette, writing of hi trip with

the Four Artists, had the following to

say:Rhind the scenes I sat with the

Four Artists each night. When one

was performing the others were toot-i- n

c. There was no com petition, for

there was glory for all. They were

equally balanced. They were a jolly

party, they lived iu their art world all

right, but loved the dill pickles and

ovsters after the concert. They loved

the morning hours for slumber, yetwhen there was midnight travel and

d days they didn't complain.When the piano was two notes down

they didn't explode, as first I feared

they couldn't be artists. Mm! Rings-dor- f

always smiled, jteuten said: no

thing, but smoked always. Miss vanIloose gave up a European tour ; toour Tvith Ms company. She is from

Louisiana, but for years taught andstudied' with- - the masters. Reuter Is

a 'Mlwauti:' German who has spenthis life with his violin. He has given

vears to playlnsr some little passage,has given his life to become What he

is, the king of the violin. When MajorPond heard Reuter play he said

"That man is my greatest violin dis-

covery." He arranged a tour for him

but just as they were starting, the

inaior died. Reuter went back to hisroom these years with his concertosNow he has again come forth, and the

world is to cheer the father as it hascheered the eon.

Kickbush sang for years in granfl

opera m Germany, in aaunion, uc

was American consul at Stettin underCleveland and McKinley. He studiedwith the masters in Germany and hashad a great deal of experience singingextensively abroad and !n America.

It is a pleasure to welcome such anartist in the lyceum fold.

Beuter has a violin so precious he

rarely plays on It, but keeps it locked

year after year in the safe. I am not

soing to tell a press-agen- t violin yaraHe was going down a Milwaukee

street after attending a violin auction.where fine violins were expected to be

put on sale. He found nothiDg worthyand turned away-t-

n disappointmentAs he passed a saloon he heard thenotes of a violin that he recognizedas unusually good. He pnshed Inside,to find a drunken man lolling at a

table playing, or trying to piay."Let me see that violin."The man handed Reuter the Instru

ment, an old broken, bulged, cracked

thing with a carved head. He strucka note from the G string that simplythrilled him. He had neer heardsuch, a wonderful note.

"I want to buy this violin."The drunken man snatched it from

him. He told him now that iolln hadbeen in the family from grandfather

WARD SUGGESTS WE HAVE SUF- -

FICIENT INSTITUTIONS OF"HIGHER ItARNING

The Optio has received the followingcommunication from District AttorneyCharles W. G. Ward regarding theeducational progress or lack of prog-ress that is being made In New Mex-

ico: ..'"'- - '."To the Editor of The Optic .

"Sir: Premising that' a.' large num-

ber of individuals realize their re-

sponsibility to the general welfare,and are willing to intelli-geutj- y

and actively In performingtheir part as measured by their power,the question 'la what direction shouldeffort be most effectively expended inorder to insure the best results in the

development of the social citizenshipof this state?' irresistibly arises. , Cer-

tain aspects appeal especially to me.

My views may be worthless, but I de-

sire to trespass briefly upon yourspace, hoping that others may be themore readily inclined to think andtalk and write about the subject.

"I wish in this letter to reiteratewhat I have many times urged in public speeches and private talks and

through The Optic and other news

papers that New Mexico has failed in

its educational duty to the Spanish- -

American people. I have found no

one to contradict me, but perhapsthat is because until recently I havemet mighty few who appeared totake the least interest n the subject.And yet it Is idle to hope to reacha proper standard of citizenship in

this state as long as scores of thou-

sands of our population are allowedto remain in ignorance of the lang-

uage and institutions of this country." 'The difficulty is too great,' sav

some. 'The work Is progressing asfast as possible,' say others. But dur

ing the 20 years that I have been ob

serving the attempt to develop citzenship through the schools it hasbeen very . strongly impressed uponme that there has not been enougheffort expended in the direction in

dicated. Every Spanish-America- n boywho was living in this state 20 yearsago, should, if he is still living, under- -

8tand English as well as his own lang

uage and be thoroughly famliar withour institutions. The advance in therural districts has been compafiiivelysmall. During the past few monthsI have visited a score of schoolswhere the pupils are learning practical nothine of the language withwhich they must become familiar if

they are to have any opportunitywhatsoever of making advancementin this state or nation.

"The superintendents are doing all

they can; Thejy can't get competentteachers or long enough school termsIt is a question of money. I note thatSuperintendent Conway of Santa Fe

county is endeavoring to put into ef

fect the consolidated rural school ideawhich some of us were laughed at asvisionaries for advocating some yearsago. But, with that

( system or an-

other, the chief need Is money to em

ploy competent teachers and to insure a full school year In every district And above all, the idea oughtto be made to appeal strongly to

every Individual, that the first and

greatest educational need of NewMexico is to give, a training in the

English language to every child andthat it must be done.

Yet, go to the next legislatureand you will find eager lobbyistsfrom Clovis and from Carlsbad andfrom Clayton who wiliseayto convince you that there Is an absoluteand immedil need for more higherinstitutions. The fact is that the children of the rural districts have beenrobbed of hundreds of thousands ofdollars by higher educational institutions that are Just beginning to justify their creation. "What we havemust be supported; but the peopleshould wake up and put a stop to anylegislature creating more until therural school problem lias been solved.

dred of the children of the Spanish-American districts ever aets insidethe walls of a higher Institution, and& mUthtt small wouurlton ., of Iheothers, tilnv months of wliicH virouKii

UNIQUE CARRIER SYSTEM

One of the most unique and originalmethods of transportation ever devis-

ed tor handling exposition crowds, and:ie which will effectually solve the--oblem of transporting the enormous

t rowds from the ferry building to the

imposition grounds, is planned for SanFrancisco during the Panama-Pacifi- c

International exposition next year.The new method known as the ro-

ller conveyor system Is similar to thathich has been in use In factories for

oars, although this will be the first

application of the mechanism to passenger traffic.

The cars will operate upon an elevat--

4 trestle, having a fall of three feetto every hundred, 'and along which rollers are placej at intervals of a fewtaet, allowing the cars to coast easily.At Intervals of 400 feet the car will

' fee lifted by a cable up a stecD declivity to a height of 12 feet aoove thelowest point of the trestle track, andwill then coast to the next similaretatlon.

MADE GOOD PROFIT;3anta Fe, N. M., March 18 That

the amount of premiums collected bythe straight life insurance companiesIn New Mexico In 1912 were over halfa million dollars more than theamount of the claims paid Is a strik-

ing feature of the summary Just made

by the state corporation commission.There are 29 life insurance com-

panies la New Mexico and the numberef pollicies written by them in 1913

was 2,899. The number of policies in

force December 31, 1913, was 13,002,

which Is a decided gam over the pre-

vious year when there were but 11,970

glides. The total amount of life In-

surance in force December 31, 1913,was $28,144,956, which is nearly twomillion drJ'iars gain over the figuresof 1812, which showed $26,279,887.

The claims paid 3 amountedto $307,623.45, ...

Deep', to the fact that tbJ pant yearwas a supposedly unlucky num-li r, the figures show that the amount

t claim was ln-- s than In 1912, whenthe sum of 3I8,Gf,9.l was expended.

priceless. There are very few De Salos

la the world. . He went to the bankand got a pile,' of bright new tills thathad never been used. H9 hurriedback to .the saloon and covered . thetable wil,h these bills. The drunkenfiddler looked at them unsteadily.. He

felt them, fondled, them, then with ashiver and with the tears running down

his cheeks,' he said: ,

"Take the fiddle!" .

He hurried away with his prize. A

violin maker put it In water and thevenerable wreck soaked apart into 68

pieces, into which it had been broken.

He put it together, working weeks atthe delicate job, glueing piece by pieceof the old, frail wood back to exact

shape.One day it was done. A number of

violinists gathered to hear Reuter playIt for the first time. At the first

stroke of the bow he burst into tearsof joy the note was so grand, andthe violinists bdwed their heads. The

tone was grander and sweeter thanever.

You must know violins to love them,and then you will know why Reuterloves that old De Salo with the love

of a mother for her babe, an mocks

every offer to buy It.Yesterday Reuter played that violin

for me. He let his hungry aul speak

through It, and tell in world'ess elo

quence the story of his own life tragedies. For Reuters life is ulmost ex

actly the story of David Warfield'sMusio Master."And I didn't try to stop my tears,

for they were relief.I will never think of music as be

fore. It will always be to roe a moredivine thing. For I nave been a week

with the Four Artists. And I pee thatour lives are like the old De Salo.

The batterings and the bumps and thewrecks will some day be done. Some

day the fragments will be restoredpnd the music will come from us allthe sweeter if we have lrarned ourlesson.

RAID UPON MADERA COM-

PANY AT PEARSON

Juarez, March 18. Property of theMadera company, located at Pearson,Chihuahua, was raided yesterday anda large quantity of merchandise fromthe company stores seized by banditsunder Manuel Gutierrez- - This news

was received today by Thomas D. Ed-

wards, American consul at Juarez.The raid followed closely the mur-

der of Oscar Allen, an American, who

had been employed as watchman atthe store of the American company.Consul Edward's advices said that theguard of Villa's insurgent soldiers,previously placed at the American

lumber town, had been removed 'justprior to the raid.. This was held ac-

countable for the American's deathand the losses of the company prop-

erty. The bandit Gutierrez, formerlyacted as second In command underMaximo CtUJ nw $ held

prisoner at Fort Bliss," Texas, and who

generally is held accountable for theCnmbre tunnel disaster, in which BO

persons, including 15 Americans, losttheir lives.

Emphatic denial was made todaythat General Benavtdes had been kill-

ed In fighting above Torreon. Theinsurgent leader's father, a residenthere, showed a telegram, of recentdate from his eon. Actual, confirma-tion of the reported insurgent reverseswas not forthcoming today from anysource.

I George C ., Carothers left at noontoday on a special train bound for thefront Carothers, who s Americanconsular agent at Torreon, had beendesignated by the department of stateto look after the Interests of Ameri-

cans and other foreigners during andafter the battle.

The local menrolled 3,362, the highest they haveyet made, and the ladies rolled thereally good ecore of 1,776. It was asurprise that the Kansas total wasnot larger, because it was thought thatbecause of their proverbial basklnesBthe Kansas girls would be perfectlyat home rolling the bowling balls andwould make a score that would bevery respectable in comparison withtheir male competitors. Anyhow,something went wrong in Kansas. JUBt

what the matter was is not known.It may be that the girls carried themajority of the above total, or theboys the telegram, didn't,,ay.

The ,La;yega-- , young,, ladies rolleda good game In consideration of thefact that this was the first time theyever tried boxball.

Yesterday and today the witnessesin the case were heard but no finaldecision had been reached at a latehour this afternoon. There is consul- -

developed to complicate the case.When . Urioste discovered the rug inPadlilla's house he immediately took

Instead of a tariff naming separatecharges for hair-cu- t, shave, and sham-

clusive rate. In Hankow the chargeof 150 cash, or about 3d. in Englishmoney, U Almost universal, so that ifour Chinese friends do not enjoyWestern privacy neither do they payWestern prices.

Perhaps the smallness of the chargeis due to the fact that these al frescobarbers escape rent and rates, andhave no luxurious premises to keepup. It is probable that the averageEnglishman would cheerfully pay evenmore than the usual sum rather thanundergo such an ordeal in the publicstreets. - These Chinaman is less

QUITTING SLAYERS MISCAR-RIAGE- S

OF JUSTICE

Berlin, March 18. Germany is notyet ready to see thr "unwritten Jaw"become a feature of trials of husbands

wives for killing faithless partners.Press comment on' the acquittal ofCount who-sle- his wifeand her nephew in the countess' oedroom, is sympathetic toward, (liecount, but the acquittal is generallyconsidered a miscarriage of justice.The Kreuzzeitung 'even makes it atext for advocating abolition of thejury System. It says also:

"We can understand how: the Jnvwsfelt themselves impelled to acquit ifpossible. From a purely humanitarianstandpoint one can be glad that theydid reach, an acquittal. Count Jliel--

czynski's holiest rights were traus- -

gressed against and his deed testifiesto a feeling of honor and an earnestappreciation of the married relationwhich we could only wish prevailedeverywhere among our people. Butthe basic principle of our justice, thatthe individual shall obtain his rightsand revenge through the state maynot for tills reason be abandoned."

The Tageezeitung also understandsthe feeling that prompted acquittal,but declares that it "would be a gravething if this feeling prevailed orshould come to prevail throughout ourfolk, . . , Such acquittals are al-

most the rule in the Latin countries,especially in France, and it is a good

Humanity Answers to Environment,Irrespective of Blood or Other

Causes of Racial Differences.

Prejudice should be omitted fromthe traveler's Outfit, declares F. G.

Aflalo; in the Fortnightly Review.The tourist who leaves home in theassumption that every German is afire-eate- r, every American a braggart,and every Italian a Lothario ie sureto meet with awkward disappointments, and will certainly Impair his

wn chances of getting the fullest enjoyment out of his experience. Generally speaking, so far, at any rate, asEuropean nations are concerned,human nature is approximately homo-

geneous, and there is much to be saidfor Mr. Beloc's contention that the differences between the nations aregrossly exaggerated, and that, in faceof a common Mohammedan or Mongolian enemy, these differences would,as likely as cot, altogether disappear.Travel teaches appreciation of anotheruniformity of type, and that is thelikeness between hillmen, dalesmen,coastmen, men of the plains andislanders all the world over.

Each type reflects Its environmentIrrespective of political allegiance orreligion. I Cn not here refer to theaffinities between Welsh and Briton,or between the peasants of Andalusiaand Morocco, for these are cases ofblood relationship. The response toenvironment is Illustrated rather bythe close resemblance between theMoslem mountaineers of the Caucasusand Christian hillmen of the Alps, orbetween the mariners, of half a dozenraces bordering on the Mediterranean.

ONE THING THAT JOB MISSED

Man of Many Trials Was at LeastSpared Experience That Befell

Mr. Brown. '

The talk turned to expletive eloquence at a recent smokefest whenCongressman George White of Ohiosaid that there are times when thelurid language of father might seemto be justified.

Some time ago a party named Brownbought an automobile, and, aftertaking a few lessons at the wheel andputting up the price of a license, heand wife whizzed forth to see thescenery.

Everything rattled on as beautifullyas joy bells for about two miles, andthen the machine stopped in the mid-dle of the road. Whereat father hustledout to take a look, and, thinking Mcould fix things, he got down on hishands and knees and crawled underA second later there came a wild yelpfrom papa.

'Henry! Henry !" expostulated wifeyfrom her seat in the car. "Don't swearso! Why can't you be patient, likeJob?"

"Like Job!" violently exclaimedfather. "Say, woman, do you thinkthat Job ever had his nose caught ina cogwheel?"

Progress at a Price.'Who has not heard of the Vale of

Kashmere?" musically inquires TomMoore, implying that any cue whoventures on a negative answerthereby Btamps himself as a low-bro-

forever. Now, after a lapse of morethan a hundred years, the UnitedStates consular service is repeatingthe query, though varying the spelling and intent. '

Moore was thinking of temples,grottoes, fountains, moonlit nights andopportunities for lovemaking aFforded by the famous valley. Theconsular service is thinking of wool,timber, waterpower and openings forAmerican manufactures.

Progress? Of course but progressfor which a price must be paid, andat times the price seems high. Thereare moments when the tourist won-

ders whether ancient castles or mod-ern chimneys along the Rhine repre-sent the more ruthless form of spolia-tion; and the query Is even morepertinent when the factory system issuddenly introduced among submis-sive workers of the Orient.

Opposed to Knighthood.Coke of Norfolk, who eventually

went to the lords as Earl of Leicester,was furious when threatened with aknighthood, relates the London Chron-

icle. After- an attack on the princeregent's life in 1817 Coke was chosento present him with an address fromthe Norfolk whlgs. They congratu-lated him heartily on his tBcape, butconcluded by beseeching him to "dis-

miss from his presence and councilthose advisers who by their conducthad proved themselves-alik- enemiesto the throne and people." On learn-ing the terma of the proposed address,the regent, who knew that Coke valuedhis position as commoner above every-

thing, declared, "If Cute enters mypresence, 1 shall knight' him." 'Whenthis threat was reported to Coke hereplied, "if ho dare try to knight me,I swear Til break his sword."

Among the first group of missionaries sent out by the newly organizedAmerican board in 1813 were Adoni-ra-

Judson and his wife, Ann Hassel-tine Judson. . While en route to Indiathey and 'a fellow-voyage- r, LutherRice, changed their views on baptism,and later 'announced that they wereBaptists. Mr. Rice came back - toAmerica to establish a foreign mis-

sionary organization and stimulate aforeign missionary interest amongBaptists. Mr. Judson and his wifeproceeded to Burmah, and were thusthe first American Baptist missionaries in th.e foreign field, ...

The church which Mr. Judson estab-lished as a feeble mission In the cityof Rangoon has grown into the greatImmanuel Baptist church, one of thelargest Christian churches In the ori-

ent. It is here that Baptists from allparts of the United States will gath-er to celebrate the achievements ofJudson and other Baptist missionaries.

Dr. J. Ackerman Coles of New Yorkhas given a permanent memorial tocelebrate the Judson centennial. It isa replica of the colonial tower, of oldTaoernacle church in Salem,' Mass.,the church In which Judson and hiscompanions were ordained and conse-

crated their; missionary work. Theiron Btaircase and everything thatgoes into the campanile, except thebrick, were assembled in this country.

New York. As an elderly man laida dime on the bar for a drink insaloon at Lenox avenue and 130tbstreet, a younger irian ran in from thestreet, took the coin, led the other tothe door and paused him to a policeman who stood there.

"You don't mean to say that youwould have your old father arrested?"the old man protested,- - hia voicetrembling.

"That is just what I am doing," theyouncer man replied, curtly. "Youhave been a nuisance long enough,and I am tired of it Officer, take himalong."

Much More So Than EnglishBrother Across Border.

fturdy of the EdinburghCabby In Marked Contrast to His

Kin In London Are SkilledIn Many Trades.

Edinburgh. One has only tocross the English ' border go-

ing northward to realize thatScotland is a far more democraticcountry than England. Who shall saywhy a land tbat venerates an old and orprouda aristocracy should have amongits common people a sturdy democrat-ic Perhaps Scottishdemocracy owes something to theland's having lacked for more thanthree centuries a resident king. Formuch of that time alBO it has had areading and thinking peasantry. TheScotch were stubbornly true to theSturat cause, but perhaps if their na-

tive royal family had been residentin Scotland when James II. was drivenfrom the throne the two Pretenderswould have found fewer friends toaid them in their vain Invasions. Rob-ert Burns, also, has long been astrong democratic influence in Scot-

land, as by Tar the greatest Britishpoet of unmixed peasant blood.

Whatever the causes that lie be-

hind the peculiar spirit of the Scot-

tish common folk, the American trav-

eler who Is sympathetic with democ-

racy feels it in the atmosphere assoon as he sets foot within the coun-

try. There is a look in the eyes ofthe Scottish workman, skilled or unskilled, that is not commonly seen Inhis English brother. It. is easy to de-

tect the greater poverty of the ruralScot after one leaves the English lakecountry, with its simple and homelycomfort for all and its rich fields of

grass and grain, its fat horses andcattle,' its walled and emboweredfarmsteads, its air of d

country and a well-house- d population.In spite of comparatively rich valleysin the lowlands of Scotland, the country is manifestly not so rewarding tothe toil of the farmer as the region 100

miles further south. Many of the farmsteads are without trees or shrubs, andunadorned with flowers, while thelarger fields indicate a sparser population. The hills, beautiful though theyare, take on a bleak aspect beneathclouded skies and country folks- - areless comfortably clad than those of rural England., ,

When one reaches Edinburgh theearly impression is confirmed of a people less materially well of, but more

sturdily than those of

England. Your cabby at Edinburgh ismore a man and brother and less aservant than he of London, though the
