He was tall, gaunt, and sesdy, and he had a
sore eye and carried his right hand enveloped
in bandana which had evidently travelled afar.
He walked up to a man who was standing at
one OF the windows in the posto1fce corridor

of wrapping paper and the stub of pencil. he

Just as Stupid as He Looked.

Mr.. L. Hoffer. an expert in chess, tells the
Sporting Life how Steinitz once defeated an
opponent to whom he had conceded large odds
The opponent had a friend at his side who
whenever he was on the point of making n had
move, would warn him by touching his foot ln-
der the table. SteinitZ, observing the tactics of
this friendly adviser, turned it to good account
in this way: At a time when his opponent In
tended to make move which would have won
the game, Stelntz quickly touched him under
the table. The opponent, taking this as the
usual warning of his friend paused, recon
sidered the move, made another one ana lost
the game.
Another tale illustrative of Steinitz's shrewC.
ness is that when he heard that Zukertort was
going over to England to play in the tourna-
ment of 1872 he sat closeted for days in the
house of a friend, who had a large chess library
studying Zukertorts analysis of the Steinitz
gambit, for Steinitz then believed in a gambit
until he detected flaw in it. Not contented
with that, SteinitZ invited it is said Zukertort
to breakfast. When Zukertort left Steinitz
knew as much of his opinion on certain open
ings as Zukertort himself, he having cross-ex-
amined him for hours upon every conceivable
variation, and Zukertort gave readily all the
required information.
One evening Steinitz, approaching group of
friends, said pleasantly:
"What did you say about me?N
You want to knows
Yes
WELL said that you are not as stupid as you
look"
But you are" said Steinitz
Hotter analyzes the secret of Stenit5' great
success as chess p aver by attributing it to the
fact that he is in constant training. He gives
as close attention to every game he PLAYS as If
IL were match game on which his reputation
depended.
He watches carefully the style of his ri, ais
and takes note of the manner in which they
treat certain variations in she openings, and IL
he detects flaw, will keep il secret for years
until an opportunity presents itself 20 profit by
II. Sometimes he is mistaken, as happened in
the Vienna tournament when he played a Ger
tain gambit at Zukertort, prepared with a
number OF variations. should Zukertort play the
game as he anticipated. Zukertort. however
eVaded the variation aud beat Steinitz In a few
moves.

A Secretary of Public Health.

The doctors of medicine are becoming
ambitious to have part in the govern
me The American Medical Associ ton,
now in session in Washington. has adopted
/ a resolution authorizing the appointment of
a committee to petition congress TO create
cabinet officer who shall be known as sec
rotary of the public health. The petition
will be presented of course, but it will be
long time before it will receive much at
! tention. indie d, it is doubtful if during
this generation, or h next, there will be
any such officer as secretary of the public
health.
The cabinet now contains as many MEM
b5rs as il ought 70. TIE members of the
cabinet are the Presidents advisers. and
too many advisers would be incOnvenient
The cabinet has been slowly increased since
the foundation of the government, the
office Of Secretary of Agriculture being the
latest one of the cabinet offices created. It
was long time, however, before congress
could be induced TO raise the agricultural
bureau to the dignity of a department.
And there was no good reason why it
should have been made department 1t
would not have been made one except for
the desire 10 make a concession to the
farmers. The farmers, however, get no
more help from the agricultural department
than they did from the agricultural bureau.
The creating of such departments as these
Of agriculture and health is 10 a certain
sense class legislation. Whenever a new
cabinet is formed there will always be a
pressure in favor of selecting a farmer for
secretary of agriculture, aud if department
of public health should be created the doc
tors would not be satisfied unless doctor of
medicine were placed at the head of it.
There is about as much reason for creating
a department of public health as there is
for creating department Of law or com
MERGE.
The cabinet is plenty big enough-too
big on some accounts. The President
doesn't want his official family to contain
as many members as a small congress. He
has trouble enough now to get along har-
moniously with those he has. An increase
in their number would be followed by less
cabinet harmony than there is at present
Matters relating to public health can be
directed by bureau just as
well as by department, and
with just as much benefit to the
public. The creation of a public health de-
partment was suggested probably by some
doctor who is ambitious to figure as a states
man. He might as well curb his ambition.
however, because the prospect that it will be
gratifiod is not at all fattering. There are
more departments to the government al
ready than there is any need for, and it is
hardly probable that another one will be
created soon.

Since the grand jury at New Orleans
has pretty definitely established the exist
ence of Stcilian secret society known
as the Malta, the movement inaugurated to
GUST all Sicilians from the fruit trade, which
they monopolise in the Crescent city, is but
natural, though it may not be altogether
just. Yet the Sicilians cannot reasonably
expect exact justice while they continue to
allow so dangerous an organization to re-
main in existence among them, because the
people of the city cannot tell those Of them
who are members from those who are not

themselves worthy of our confidence and
respect by abandoning such lawless prac-
tees as may have been customary in their

Republican newspapers of the bitterly
partisan order no longer have any reasona-
BILE excuse for what they have heretofore
been pleased TO term the ''scant support and
encouragement accorded to public schools in
the southern states" Such a pretense is
dissipated beyond dispute by the returns
OF the latest census, which cannot
be saidto favor them in anvwise. In the
matter of enrolment during the past dec
AIDE, Mississippi has made a gain of 1890
per cent; Louisiana has gained 53. so Der
cent. Texas 183. Is per cent. North Caro-
lima 27.OS per cent; South Carolina so. 50
per cent; Virginia 55.06 per cent. West
Virginia 81 per cent. These gains are
remarkable. They show that the states
usually sneeYd at by partisan newspapers
are really this most progressive in the whole
union in the matter of education. No state
north Of tho Potomac or Of the Ohio
can show degree Of growth ap-
preaching this. On the contrary New
Hampshire suStains loss Of 7.61 per cent
Maine 7.37 PSF cent. and Vermont 1912 per
cent. Growth is shown in some eastern and
western statoG But 1t is comparatively
small For instance Connecticut has 6. 6S
per cent. gain; Massachusetts 1888 per
cent. New York l. IS per cent, Ohio sos
per cent, Pennsylvania !. 80 per cent. and
Iowa 1888 per cent. Taking into account
the longer standing of the pubic school sys-
tenn in the states last named it is not reason
able TO expect very great gains. But the
growth shown in the southern states is re-
markable beyond the ratio of what might
be expected. Such rapid progress is very
gratifying.
