Generalship and Book knowledge.

The greatest soldier who ever lived
Alexander of Macedon-though he slept
with Homer under his pillow, had prob
ably never seen book on military art,
and though Won Moltke was a student,
we may be permitted to doubt if MARI
borough ever was. He read only Shake
speare zealously.
Certainly in our time no able man who
wanted chief for any great undertake
ing of any kind would dream of asking
the limits of his reading or would be
able to avoid silent prejudice against a
candidate, partly unreasonable, but part
ly also the result Of Evolutionary expe.
rience, if he knew that he was in any
special degree student of books. He
would think him man apt to be misled
Indeed, in one great condition of eff.
cheney, perhaps in practice the greatest
of all conditions, we should assign to un.
read men-we do not mean uneducated
men, but men who never voluntarily
open books-a definite superiority. They
are apt to choose men better. Soldiers
who do not read make no mistake about
their general. London Spectator.

A PERFECT SUMMER.

They say the sun as brightly shines as in the
years agone;
They say the grass is just as green out on the
shady lawn,
And that the birds as sweetly sing up in the
waving leaves
AS when we sat together, dear, among the
golden sheaves.
1t may be so. The bees are humming,
And the smell of the clover is rare and sweet;
But mem'ry's fingers at my heartstrings
drumming
Wake a song of joy that was too fleet.
The glowing sunshine grows pale around me;
The grass is faded, the bird song faint;
catch not the charm of the scenes that sur
round me,
For thy voice answers not to my hearts lone
plant.
The change is not in the suns bright shining,
The song of the birds, the hum of the bees;
For the charm of that old time was not in re-
clining
In the lap of summer beneath the green
trees.
love the bright sunshine, the birds sweetly
singing,
AS sit alone meath TIL old apple tree;
But wait with fond longing, to dear hopes
close clinging,
That each summer time brings me nearer to
thee.
For the rythm in the melody of that happy
measure
Was the sound of thy voice, to me more than
dear,
And ne'er can life's music so thrill me with
pleasure
Till thy murmuring tones fall again on my
ear.
So trustingly yearn for happy home COM
ing,
A heaven made perfect by thy presence so
rare;
For through the Elysium 'twould be weary,
lone roaming
If thou vert not with me its glories to share.

Cementing the Russian Empire.

The car of Russia shows undoubted
sagacity in adopting the best physical
means to hold together his vast empire
He has pushed the transcaspian military
railway southeastward until it has al
most reached the frontiers of British In
dia and China, the two powers most
likely to dispute with him the acquisition
of further dominion in Central ASIA
Having thus assured the safety of the
Russian position in the southeast, he has
undertaken more stupendous work in
beginning the construction of an I'M
broken line Of railway to connect Eu-
ropean Russia with port on the Pacific
ocean. The whole length of the Asiatic
or main Siberian line is 1890 miles.
The estimated COSTS $500, 900, 900. The
work, which is now progressing from
both ends toward the center, is to be
completed in about 10 years. There will
then be stretch of railway, all located
upon Russian territory, about 5000 miles
in length, holding European Russia and
Asiatic Russia firmly together with a
continuous band of steel. Until the pro-
posed railway running north and south
to connect the two Americas shall have
been built there will be nothing on earth
to rival this great stretch of eastern and
western railway across the Russian en-
pire,-Omaha Bee.

Washington's Cabin.

There are few buildings that attract
the admirers of Washington that have
more of interest in them than decaying
cabin which stands alone in an old pas
ture field q half mile from Berryville, in
the beautiful Shenandoah valley of Vir-
ginia.
The old cabin was the home of Wash
ington when he was a surveyor. He
came here direct from the maternal roof
to begin the arduous and at the time
dangerous work of surveying the lands
of Thomas, Lord Fairfax, who owned
all the northern part Of Virginia under
the kings patent. The work was ardu-
GUS because of the physical aspect of the
country, then dense wilderness, and
dangerous because Of the character of
the inhabitants, who were principally
Indians or scarcely less wild trappers or
squatters upon his lordship's domain.
Washington had been selected by the
nobleman because of his belief in the
youths ability to cope with these ele-
ments early in 1748, just after the COM
pletion of his sixteenth year, his only
companion being George William Fair
fax, nephew of old Lord Thomas.
Whether these boys erected the build
ing or found it already in place history
does not state, but well authenticated
tradition says that they built it them
selves. That they used it for an Office,
kept their instruments there and slept
in the upper room there is ample proof.

Folly of HOarding.

1t is really remarkable that so many
people in this country, who have funds
from which they might earn good rate
of interest, persist in locking up notes in
safe deposit vaults or pack them away in
old stockings. Money will earn today
large returns, with the best of real es-
tate security as first class collateral to
protect the lender, and yet great many
individuals, waiting for they know not
what, decline to take advantage of what
is an unusual opportunity for making
money. The currency of country is
intended to circulate as evidence of cred
it. If it does not, it becomes absolutely
useless to everybody. In famine COM
munity would be no better off if it locked
up millions of barrels Of flour than if it
had none at all. The same is precisely
true of money. Washington News.

ROssini's Memory.

The composer of 'Il Barbiere di Sivig-
liza" was blessed with not very reten-
tive especially for names of
persons introduced to him-a forgetful-
ness which was frequently the cause of
much merriment whenever Rossini was
among company. One day he met
Bishop, the English composer. Rossini
knew the face well enough and at once
greeted him. "Ah, my dear Mr.. -
but he could progress no further. To
convince him that he had not forgotten
him Rossini commenced whistling Bish-
ops glee, "When the Wind Blows" a
compliment which "the English Mozart
recognized and would as readily have
heard as his less musical surname

a view Of the common Herd.

The society journal Vogue has as one
of its correspondents an alleged member
of the -Four Hundred" who writes as
follows: "What is the attraction yearly
at the horse show, which is always
jammed to the doors? The horses? No.,
Society in the boxes, and the people
cheerfully pay their money to be able to
gaze at the beings so far removed from
them, constituting an inner circle. 1t
was this feeling which caused Broadway
to be choked with bowling mob ON the
day of the wedding of Miss Bradley
Martin to the Earl of Craven, and it is
this same impulse which prompts the
crowds in the upper tiers at the opera
and in the orchestra stalls to spend the
time of the intermissions in gazing
around the house at the fashionables as
if they were waxwork from Nine. Tus-
sauds or the Eden Musee and following

Birds Enjoy a Shower nath.

A friend reports a pretty incident
During the hot, dry weather the birds
about her house were apparently much
in need of bathing places, and the lady
discovered that every day when she
went out to water her flowers little
bird lowered about as If he wanted
something. Presently he revealed what
he did want by getting under the sprink-
ling of the water pot or beneath the
dripping plants, and fuffing his feathers
in this shower bath just as he would in
a pool, and plainly enjoying it in the
highest degree. He began to watch for
the daily coming of the lady to water
her plants and gave himself up to his
bath with gay bandon.-Boston Tran

Why Is It?

Why is it that woman can struggle
until she is red in the face and worn out
both in temper and body by a window in
a railroad train in her vain endeavors to
close or open it when all that man has
to do is to walk up and go over exactly
the same line of action that she has al
ready exhausted, and down comes the re-
fractory window in jiffy? 1t is most
humiliating fact, but very true one

A Munihcent Offer,

Here is a capital story of Mr.. Edward
Lloyd, the well known tenor. He sell
dom sings in private, BIZ on one occa-
sion, when visiting some friends little
way out, he was prevailed upon to do so.
A clergyman who was present was not
aware of the identity of the singer and
at the conclusion of the song approached
him quietly and said:
Really, sir, you should not waste your
voice like this. Now, we are in need of
another tenor in our choir. / shall be
very happy to give you $50 a year. Think
it over"
The singer smiled and said he would
