Parents have. as a rule. n most
curIously unthinking way of bidding
their children TO go kiss the lady'or
the gentleman caller. The child will
shrink and hide It's face while the
mother will urge and even command.
\ dainty little girl will lie ahsOluse;
~ forced to offer her sweet mouth to
bearded lips. and these unwise guar
dams seem TO think the daily repeti-
ton of this act with every caller a
necessary part OF the child's educa-
ton. .
Every man or Woman of feeling
longs TO caress a beautiful child as
one longs to put a fragrant rCse to
the nostrils, but a tender gardner does
not ALLOW every passer-by to freely
handle his flowers.
Tie kiss upon the lips was I'M
doubiedIy first Invented by lovers,
and should be consccrated TO lows
uses. 1t can never be abolished by
fashion or science, while hearts beat,
veins Jingle and pulses thrOb with
loves fires.
1t is a spontaneous impulse of two
fond beings drawn together b a
mysterious attraction. Eloquent IL
its silence il succeeds where words
fail. Many Il woman has had her
heart revealed TO her through g kis5
and in knowing when to Civ and
when to withhold this favor often
lies the secret of winning or losing.
As many prizes have been lost by
the kiss too long withheld as by the
one too easily given. To the woman
the kiss means more and less thar il
means to tire man. The woman
thinks tho man who takes her lips
has given his heart: but the mai
thinks onlS that she who has given
her lips will give herself rs well.
| When the woman firds Ter mistake
she is disillUsicnizcd. When the man
finds his he is sngry. Wherf the
thrill of pleasure goes out of the kiss
for two. and it becomes a mechanical
duty. love has departed. Friendship
MAY bind them, respect may unite
them. and sympathy render their as
ISOLATION sweet and tender: but when
lip no longer speaks 10 lip, i'll the
voorhees, cloquence of the kiss, Cupid
has sheathed his aud flown
away. ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.

prising when the truth as to what hap
pened at Port Arthur came out; to learn
that it was the Chinese who were vicious
and outrageously bloodthirsty. When the
Japanese secured D Jssession of Port Arthur
II was discovered that a large number Of
Japanese prisoners had been tortured to
death by their Chinese captors before the
surrender of the citadel. Some of the I'M
fortunates had suffered crucifixion In all
to death. others had found relief only after
mutilation the like of which Is unknown
save among the most barbaric of peoples
That the discovery of such horrors aroused
the Indignation of the Japanese soldiers is
quite probable, and one of the natural re-
suits would be tendency to kill every
Chinaman who could by any possibility be
either connected with or responsible for
the fearful cruelty inflicted by an organ
lied bands of fiends, who were too cow
ardly to fight, but 1t Is certain that
none of the Chinese at Port Arthur was
tortured. History tells us that the cruel
ties of the Sepoys and of our own In
dams have resulted in the cry of mo quar-
ter" when the forces Of what we call CIV
ilization were in the majority, and 1t is
within the bounds of probability that the
capture of Port Arthur was attended with
slaughter that under the ordinary circum-
stances of warfare might be regarded as
unnecessary; but for this-if there was
such slaughter-the cowardly and brutal
Chinese are wholly responsible.

Tonight the Washington Board of Trade
will hold one of its regular meetings.
Every meeting OF the board of trade is i'm
portant but the meeting tonight is es-
pecially so because this representative Or
ganization Of citizens has to deal with mat
tiers not merely material but with affairs in
which a great principle Is involved. The
main proposition Is to have the board Of
trade indorse the unanimous resolution of
its board of directors favoring the extern
sion Of civil service reform rules to mum
icipal Offices in the District of Columbia.
Such an extension Is not possible without
amendment of the statute which gives
force to the rules made by the President;
the Endorsement OF the board of trade is.
therefore, sought as of value in the fight
which must be made In Congress When,
a month ago, the resolution came up for
action in the board. II was quite generally
misunderstood but since then there has
been much of discussion and what appears
to be sufficiency of enlightenment OPP
position to the resolution has been based
on the strange idea that civil service re-
form is a political topic and. building upon
that extremely faulty and illogical founda-
ton. a few of the most practical of poll
ticians have erected a "house-of-cards''
political action by an organization that
should, they claim, be a purely commercial
body. The Star has shown quite conclu-
sively that the action which the board Of
trade Is being urged to take by all friends
of good government Is not only non-politic-
al but Is distinctly anti-political: II prom
ises a better condition of governmental
affairs in the District of Columbia than
has heretofore existed. Today large pro-
portion of the minor places under the Dis
trict government is in the possession of
non-resldents and this improper condition
has come to be through the direct opera
tions of the spoils system. while ago
there existed In the minds of a few men,
bers of the board fallacious belief to the
effect that the board of trade would depart
from it's own rules and violate all board OF
trade customs by even considering civil
service reform resolution. Today that fall
lacy no longer exists in Washington, for
The Star has produced a great quantity of
testimony showing that IL has been a COM
mon practice for boards of trade and
chambers of commerce to indorse all the
varieties of civil service reform The
Washington Board of Trade is organized
for 1.-The consideration of, and action upon,
matters concerning the commerce. prosper
ity and advancement of the material inter-
ests of the national capital" The resolu-
ton In question is directly in line with the
letter and the spirit of that definition OF
the boards purpose.

The close relationship between cruelty
and fear-long suspected-has been estab-
lished beyond question by the testimony
of those who are fully acquainted with the
details of Japanese-Chinese strife. few
days since there came, from Chinese
sources. vague but horrible accounts of
cruelties alleged to have been practiced
by the victorious Japanese troops at Port
Arthur, and fo- awhile there was popular
tendency toward imagining that some of
the Japanese soldiers, flushed with vic
tory. might, perhaps. have committed acts
oiscreditable to themselves and to the civ
LIKING influences which they, in that part
of the world represent. Americans who
are on terms of intimacy with the char
acter. respectively, of the Chinese and jap
anese were satisfied, however, that there
must be exaggeration in these sanguinary
reports. for the conduct charged was
wholly out of accord with the Japanese
way of doing things. Those who know the
Japanese at home are ever willing to tes-
tify to the kindly spirit which is always
In evidence. to the natural and whole
sOuled politeness which is experienced by
all foreigners who either sojourn for
awhile or settle down to live in the Land
of the Mikado. The Japanese are a brave
people, and the truly brave are always
considerable OF those whom they have in
their keeping. In China things are start
ingly different. There is hatred of all for
eigners, and IL is hatred OF the most cow
ardly description. There the life of the
foreigner is always In danger. and he is
subject to constant insult from the hood
lums. who do not dare to attempt open
violence. 1t was. therefore. not at all sur

The measurable Champ Clark.

From the Wilmington DELI News.
Champ Clark, the somewhat notorious
member of Congress from Missouri, who
w6s defeated IN an attempt to be re-
elected, made another exhibition of him
self in the House on Tuesday. He Is one
of the members of Congress for whose
appearance in the halls of legislation there
Is no possible excuse. The people of his
district who discovered him to the country
soon found that he would better have been
left undiscovered. He will retire into his
own backwoods home after the 4th day of
March next, and that will probably be
the last that the country at large will ever
hear of him.

They Are Hopeful of the Senate.

From the New York World
Gen Sewell of New Jersey was in Wash

business, but he was not very successful.
The amendments to the pooling bilr'
which the railroad LOBBY tried to have
adopted, and which We're described in the

ments' were beaten in the House of Rep
resentatives. If the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company and it's allies can succeed in pro-
noting the general from the corridor to a

to have more success with the measure in
that branch of Congress.

The Star has nothing but good wishes
for Mrs. Blaine, the intermediate real
estate agents and the syndicate that pro-
poses to purchase the Blaine property on
Lafayette Square, but IL its transfer Is TO
result in the construction of one OF those
tall, sky-scraping apartment or tenement
houses which are just now dishguring
many OF our American cities-and of which
we unfortunately have one example In
washington-then it is fervently to be
hoped that the negotiations will never be
contaminated. IL may well be questioned
whether one person ought to be allowed to
so interfere with the inherent rights OF
other people to air and sunshine. as
buildings OF this class do: but, keeping that
phase OF the subject entirely out Of view,
1t is sufficient to say that, on the ground OF
safety and sanitary and esthetic considera-
tons alone, ore example of the sort Is
quite enough tor Washington.

ton In parlor and sleeping car rates is one
that ought to pass. 1t provides that pas
sengers shall not be charged more than
one-half a cent per mile Tor lower berths
and one-third cent per mile for upper
berths. 1t provides also that not more than
one-half a cent a mile shall be charged for
a seat in a parlor-car; and that sleeping
car companies shall provide a safe for the
Iafe-keeping of passengers valuables free
of cost. A penalty of 800 is imposed for
