Now. facts are very well in their place.
but the accumulation OF them is not
wisdom. and fewer OF them az all ordi-

come when the modern craze for infor-

edge will be sought or impaired for spe-
cial purposes and not simply for the
sake Of filing the mind with facts as a
shed is packed with cordwood. When that
time comes other mental faculties than
the statistical will have a chance to de-
velop. The logical and the reflective
powers and the imagination will take
their own place and the store OF infor-
nation be put in the background until
needed. When that time comes the
question will no longer be asked why
there are no poets or novelists or essay
lists equal to those of a by-gone day.

The paradoxical thing abd1t hotel reading
rooms IN New York IS that though ostensi-
Div maintained for the use and convent
ence OF the hotel guests, they are at the
service in nearly every case OF persons who
are not only not guests OF the hotel. but
who furthermore are resident New York
ers. Nearly every hotel in the city has
a large number OF patrons who are known
as regulars who stay for several months
at a time. and who are seen very little In
the hotel corridors or In the reading room.
Occasionally a patron OF a New York hotel.
perhaps one OF it's oldest guests. will find
il necessary 70 write a letter or 10 consult
a newspaper file. and when he does ne is
usually compelled to wait until an outside
person not a guest Is ready 10 take his de-
parture. In some country hotels the an
nouncement is made This reading room
Is for the use OF guests exclusively" No
such announcement appears in New York
hotels. perhaps for the very excellent rea-
son that the reading rooms are not for the
use of guests exclusively, but for persons
not guests chiefly. The New York hotel
reading. room, instead OF being a center
of political activity, social gossip and news
interchange, as in the country. is as quiet
usually as Philadelphia on Sunday.

THE WORSHIP OF FACTS.

A new weekly paper. called Informa-
ton. has been started in New York. 1t
undertakes to present facts, and nothing
but facts. briefly and to the point.
Whether its information is accurate,
whether the facts really are such or not.
the Journal, not having examined the
publication, cannot say: but this mat
ters little. The public already has too
many facts. Information is being con-
tinually thrust at it and rammed down
it's throat. Each individual making up
the great aggregate called the people is
expected to know something of every
thing. The examining process is begun
when he is a babe in arms. 1t Is con-
tinued in the kindergarten and followed
up in the higher schools. The child
must know a little natural history. a
little botany, a little chemistry, a little
geology, a little physiology and a little
something of many other use

of its school age ii does not know very
much about spelling. If It cannot read

One Of the things that strikes the ten
derIoot with SURPRISE" said a Western sur
veyor, lis the way the tough men in the
Tar West, when they happen 70 run counter
to men of their own kind. will refrain from
other. So quick and ready are the shooting
men Of tse real sort that when facing each
other on guard neither can fire SO quickly
that the other will not return the shot
before falling. Thus 1t may happen that
two bad men who have sworn death to each
shots, because neither one can catch the
other unprepared.
Take the case of Wild Bill and Jim Cur
RE, for example. Both men of undoubted
years-by some accounts they exchanged
shots at long range-but they never pulled
trigger on each other at close quarters, and
when Bill was assassinated by a wretch
years afterward at Deadwood ii closed the
feud. Clay Allison, the New Mexican dead
shot and mankiller, found one man who
wasn't AFRAID to stand up TO him, and was
just as quick with his gun as himself. That
man was Mace Bowman, some time a dep
uty sheriff Of Colfax county They spent
a whole afternoon together, each trying to
get the drop on the other. but neither one
could accomplish ii. 1t was a perform
ance, though, of a kind to make an mex

between them, and this afternoon when
they met in Lambert's barroom, in the old
town OF Cimarron, and got to drinking the

them that if either one got the drop the

pistols, the barrels crossing, on the par

made a rush for the pistols. But neither
could seize his weapon quickly enough to
get the advantage Of the other. Once, as
they were taking a drink together, Bow
man, with whisky half way to his lips.
suddenly smashed the glass to the counter
and drew his pistol. But as IL came up
Allisops revolver met IL half way.
'"The men were looking into each others
eyes and a sign in others that a trigger
was to be pulled would have meant the
death Of both men, which was more kill
ing than either one wanted This dalliance
with death went on through the afternoon,
until at last, at the coming OF evening, the
two men. becoming savage. declared
that they would bring the duel to an issue.
They cleared the room Of spectators and
had already taken their places in corners
diagonally opposite to begin shooting when
w. r. Morley, Of Cimarron, a strong friend
of both men. rushed in between them at
and entreaties managed to get them off the

two contestants backed out of the room at
opposite doors and rode out Of town differ
ent ways, saving an encounter which would
almost certainly have resulted in the death
Of both."
