Kansas City, July 2.-The anticipation
that all the A. r. U. employees in tho
twenty-seven yards of this city would
strike yesterday was not realized, and
everything is quiet in the city. At Ar
gentine, where trouble was expected, the
situation is practically unchanged. The
Rock Island and Chicago Il Alton sent
out no passenger trains from here, not
because they could not be manned here,
but for the reason that the companies ex-
pected the stalling Of trains ut some
point out of town. All trains on other
lines arrived and departed as usual.

quickly put an end to the trouble at

and starting them for Denver. Paralysis

One of the most mysterious occurrences
in many day was the awful mine dis
aster that killed 231 men in Austria. The
direct cause was series of heavy ex-
plosions, but what caused the explosions
is mystery. The only connection be-
tween cause and effect that can be traced
is the fact that short time before the
explosions heavy rumblings were heard
through the Karwin district, in which
the mines were located. These, it is now
thought, were due to an earthquake. The
only explanat tion of the explosion is that
an earthquake, acting in the manner of
a volcanic eruption, forced intlammable
gases into the mine, and these went up
in fire, wreching the mines and Destroy
ing the lives of the miners. ..<

FRENCH ART OF TODAY.

Only the Genius Of the People Keeps 1t
From Hopeless Debasement. ,rs,
For years all the art roads have led to
Paris It is today the center Of the art
world, q model Of taste, skill and knowl-
edge az well as hotbed Of eooentrici-
ties, mannerisms, stilted affectations
and small triokeries. It takes in the(
world, takes credit for all its virtues
and is saddled with all its vices. It is
ruled by the quips and cranks Of what
at times seems outrageous fortune; it is
magnified and belittled; it is over
praised and underpraised; it seems to be
rising to lofty heights at times and then
again to be sinking into the mire. It is
at once the best and the worst art Gen.
ter in the world, a crucible where all
elements mix, all become alloyed, and
yet all average up respectable grade
of arnalgam. That which keeps it from
hopeless debasement is the art genius of
the French people. Has that art genius
ever reached is apogee? Has it fulfilled
it's mission and voiced the finer feelings
Of France, as painting once did in Italy
and Spain? Did we accept the exhibit
at the Worlds fair as criterion we
might think her day was about finished,
that her artists had said all there was
for them to say, but the representation
was inadequate.
The French stand sponsor for all the
academic emptiness displayed there, for
all the studio Recitation, all the exag-
gerated realism, all the tawdry senti-
ment, and yet at heart they have little
sympathy with them. The academic
was foisted upon them early in life by
the example Of Italy and the misdirect-
ed energy of royalty. Poussin or Lebrun
was no more French in thought or meth
cd than Corneille. The monarchy up
held the academic because it smacked
Of hcrcism and the empire because it
fostered the military spirit, but the re-
public has barely tolerated it, and the
radicals have always hated it. It is the
bette noir of French art, against which
there has been a long series Of revolu-
tious. Why, if not that it fails to repre-
sent the French? They are fond enough
of talking about such loyalists as Pous.
sin, David, Ingres and Cabanel, but the
men they love are the rebels, Vatican,
Fragonard, Delacroix, Millet, Corot,
Courbet The vivacious, the decorative,
the emotional, the sentimental, the posi-
tive-all these they love because they
are national characteristics, but the
mock heroic, the grandiloquent, the
bombastic, have been more the result of
foreign imitation than the outcrop of
French feeling. John c. Van Dyke in

PReMoNlTIoNs OF DEATH.

Soldiers Who Have Gone Into Certain Ba&.
ties Perfectly Conscious Of Their Fate.
''Soldiers had strange premonitions Of
death before going into battle during
Ihe war; said an old soldier. II could
not tell You how many times ! have seen
my comrades foretell their death. They
seemed to feel it was coming and went
into battle fully prepared to meet their
end. So common was this, and SO regu-
larly did death follow when foretold, that
I often heard officers upbraiding their
men for speaking Of death, remarking:
"A man never speaks of a.fear Of death
without death following shortly after.
It's like the smallpox; the one that
breads it most is sure to be the first VIC
tim But the officers were reasoning
backward. In all the cases saw the pre-
diction of death was caused by an in
ward feeling, telling that his end was
near -.. .,.... III,
1T WASH t fear, for remember Boss
McKellar, as we used to call him, who
came from Butler county: he had been
brave soldier, serving his full three
years, never once failing in his duty.
The day before his three years were up
he went into the battle of the Wilder
ness. He was so pale and careworn and
lacked so much the usual vigor with
which he entered battle that some of
his friends remarked how changed he
was He looked like a ghost and was
trembling all over. They asked him
what was the matter. Why he re-
piled, my three years are up tomorrow,
but I'll never see my service out I will
be killed in this battle-that know
His friends tried to. cheer him up,
betting him that it was only a morbid
fancy, but no amount Of talk could en-
iven him. He went into the battle and
was among the first to fall, being hit
squarely in the forehead. I also remem-

ing how deeply the man was affected,

But this only made the soldier break
down. In the battle next day he was
killed among the first I could give you
an indefinite number Of such instances,
which show that soldiers really had
death foretold to them, but these are
sufficient. To me it was most solemn

going to be killed. It invariably turned
out that way. .'-Exchange

health and Trees.

Scientific Investigations have shown
that vegetation exercises . direct influ.
ence on the health. Trees planted 70
near a house that the foliage shades it
and keeps the sun of the walls and roof
make the house unhealthful. On the
contrary, trees planted in q yard or
grounds near enough to the house for
people who live in it to go and sit under
the grateful shade are blessing. It
has been found, too, that certain flowers
give off ozone, which all mankind needs.
The plants that yield most ozone are
those with q grateful fragrance. Trees
Of the pine family are the most health
full. They throw of resinous down
that fastens upon disease microbes in
the air and clings to and destroys them.
It is for this reason that pine forests are
60 healthful. r. N 't ..."'1
Certain trees drink up the swamps
that produce malaria almost as efectu-
ally as draining them would do. For
southern countries the eucalyptus ia
adapted for this purpose; in q northern
climate the ordinary willow will do as
well. It would be interesting to see the
experiment made of planting willows on
the landward edge Of many of the salt
meadows on the New Jersey coast. In
q few years the willows might gather to
themselves 90 much loan as to make the
spot around them high and dry.
A large willow tree will draw from
tho earth about it's roots many malarial
exhalations that produce fevers in the
human system. For this reason it comes
under the head of febrifugal trees. 9th
ers of the same kind, to be planted in
swampy localities, are larches and pop
lars. Where evergreens will grow in
swampy spots they, too, will draw from
earth and air miasmatic germs the year
around. If there is household drain
that is apt to become foul and infectious
at the mouth, plant plenty of sun1owers
around there. The sun1lower is one of
the best of febrifugals. Hemp has also
much of the same effect.
DR.. John B. Edge of the Pennsylvania
state board Of agriculture says that ordi-
nary forest trees which destroy malaria
spores are those having large, broad
leaf with rough, downy underside. The
white mulberry is one Of the best. and
the catalpa and red birch stand high in
the list

How Do You Perspire?

This ancient oriental fashion of saying
"How do you dor seems to be we'll ap-
plicable to our time and country if it
can be proved that Professor Elmer
Gates new theory is correct. Both the
theory and the salutation have signif-
oance in the months when the thermom-
eter may pop UP to 95 in the shade any
day. 49, - ,+1 - .,.s' -, ',,. ~, '@ :,.,' f>..
: Professor Gates thinks he has discov-
cred that the perspiration Is peculiarly
affected by mental emotions. Not only
that, but that the insensible perspiration
constantly flowing from the body carries
with it the products of the emotions into
the atmosphere, and these lodge upon all
people around there and affect them &C.
cordingly. Bad emotions fill the per-
spiration with inimical, poisonous prod
ucts. Good. noble and pleasant feelings,
on the contrary, throw off healthful and
inspiring germs, which work together
for good not only to the person giving
them off, but also to those around him.
Wicked, angry, murderous, envious,
stingy thoug hts and feelings, grief, mel
ancholy, the blues, cast actual poisons
into the perspiration, DR.. Gates says.
He has discovered this, he claims, by
analyzing hundreds of samples Of per-
spiration. The more violent an evil
emotion is the more apt it will be to in
jure the health both Of the person giving
it off and of those around him. For the
sake of his own health, therefore, every
individual must cultivate sweetness Of
temper and noble, kindly feelings and
do it persistently. He must think
thoughts always such that he would not
be ashamed if his mind were suddenly
uncovered and all theworld could see
it's workings. Whether this fine doctrine
is true or not, it is a thousand pities all
the world does not believe it to be true.
