BETTER TIMES COMING.
A Democratic Newspaper Sees the
"Boom" lust Ahead.
Louisville Courier-Journal.l

Louisville Courier-J Journal.
Business is better-there is no doubt 81
it. Increased activity is noted in many
lines outside of the stock markets, which,
after long period Of inaction, seem near
the development of a "boom."
There is nothing feverish, uncertain or
speculative about this revival The best
thing of all is that it seems to have started
with the farmers, who are making large
purchases of implements and other sup
plies and who have learned in spite of ii e
calamity howlers that, much as they have
suffered, they are not bankrupts, and are
not going to be bankrupts. Matters have
mended slowly for the reason that farmers
could do nothing in the winter, but with
the thawing of the SHOWS they are on the
move to create the wealth where wealth
must always be created. They have now
given the impulse which every other line
of business is beginning to feel.
The nation is inconceivably better off
than it was year ago. 1t would be better
of if things were at standstill, for ahead
Ct us is no Populist campaign-no attempt
to goad people to madness-no fear of an
exhausted gold reserve. If we only stood
still we should be doing better than if we
were sliding back, as We were up to last
November. But we are not standing still
now, for we have rested, and our motto
once more is Onward!

sages and most of the myths of Asia. tits
distressing, however, TO find our esteemed
contemporary, the Denver Republican,
speaking of one of the theosophical trav-
elers, an Englishman, as the master OF
eight languages, but not of his native
tongue. "He REFERRED" it says, "to voices
in the wilderness telling of the coming OF
that 'appy time and ola ''igher hand
brighter stage of existence" This is mere
ireverence, joined to ignorance of many
altitudinous mysteries. Is the Denver
Republican not aware OF the popularity OF
the atmosphere of the Himalayas? Nc
his can live in it. They are mostly super
fluous letters, anyway, and the elevated
wisdom rejects them. The Ma'atmas are
fuller of transcendental and ultimate lore
than the seas of water and what do they
need ofh's? Their aspirations are Of
loftler kind. The letter is not necessary
for the solution of the problems of life anC
such small matters. The letter X is the re
ally indispensable letter to Theosophist
and everybody else.

Thousands of Christian Endeavor work
ers who would like to attend the Sixteenth
international Convention which will be
held in San Francisco in July of this year
are deferred from thinking seriously Of do
ing so on account Of the expense Of the
long journey. This has been called to the
attention of "The Philadelphia Press, and
the publishers Of that journal have decided
to furnish free any number of railroad
tickets from Philadelphia to San Francisco
and return to representatives of Christian
Endeavor Societies who will render a tri-
fling service to "The Press" The offer in
wolves the possible expenditure by "The
Press" of thousands Of dollars and opens
the way for all Christian Endeavorers to
enjoy the experience of lifetime-a jour
ney across the continent under the most
favorable auspices. Write to ''The Press"
for details of the offer.

A curious case has just come to light in
South Carolina. 1t would seem absu' d to
state that man who burns down his own
house is not guilty of arson, yet such is the
case in South Carolina common law, and a
recent Supreme Court decision disclosed
that according TO law man can willfully
destroy his own property by fire. The
paradox is easily explained. Fire insur-
ance is thing Of later years, while the old
common law has stood for centuries before
insurance companies were thought of;
there was no incentive to make a man
burn his own house when he could hope
for nothing in return, and so the only def
milton given for arson was ''the burning of
the house of another" The old common
law has, in the confusion of other legisla-
ton, never been amended.

dad Himself ShiI'ps,; In a Box In Order %
Ileaf 4 M. I,aIIuav-


-Four or five years ago one of themos,
celebrated of European prodigies was
the Polish dwarf, Hermann Zeitung, az
one ti,:!e one OF the chief attractions at
The Folic5 Bergere, says the New Yorb
world. Lattcrly Zeitung has been lit
tlc il the public eye, or rather was un-
til the other day, when he started IL y
carry out an interesting exploit whish
very nearly succeeded.
lie had himself fastened up in a box
addressed to large importing house
Mt Madrid end labeled: Fragile. With
care. Top" Holes had been made in
this box for breathing purposes and
one of its sides was SO constructed that
it could be opened from within to give
the little dwarf way of getting out
unnoticcd when he reached his destina-
tion. The box was fitted up with u
cushion seat and an abundant supply
of provisions was placed within it.
Thc.start was made at Vienna, where
Zcitung had been living for some time.
and after the dwarf had placed him
self inside and fastened himself in two
lusty por5cr3 carried him OF to the sta-
siOh' hAb III pSSH p.tit oSlONOudnd a
fec of sixty cents cash. They gave the
box il charge to the stntioamaster TO
be shipped to Madrid by express.
According to Zcitung, the journey
was al unintcrcsting one and with
out incident, but when he got to the
Spanish capital his troubles began.
The Madrid stationmaster evidently
had n poor knowledge as to the fragil.
ity of glass, for he trrned the box over
and over. and at last came to the con-
clusiol that its contents ought to be in
vestigated. His aids, therefore, opened
it and dragged out the dwarf more dead
than alive from the shaking he had re-
ceived. 1t would have puzzled man
less full of expedicnts how to further
punish Zeitung; but the suationmaster
olved the problem by having him ar
ested for trying to swindle the rail-
-oad companies out of their fares.
The dwarfs defense was that he was
travelling in this manner on q bet Of
shree thousand francs, the terms Of
The wager being that he was to get to
Madrid without cent in his pocket.
Three hundred francs, however, were
found concealed in his shoes. The real
reason for his travelling in this remark
able manner was that he might save
railroad fare and also get a good adver-
tisement for the engagement in Madrid,
for which he was billed.
