withstanding his extremely advanced age,
his memory was singularly retentive, and
he was able to entertain his friends for
hours at time with lively and charming
narratives in the house of commons during
the first half of the century. He always
delighted to recall the circumstance that
he was in the house when Disraeli, then
quite young man, made the celebrated
speech in which he said that one day the
house would be compelled to listen to
him.

OF Interent to Women.

Constantinople has population of
nearly 100000, and, of course, large
proportion of these are women. 1t is,
therefore, rather an astonishing fact
that among all the fair inhabitants of the
city not more than 5000 can either read
or write.
When an Arab woman is tired of
widowhood and desires to marry again,
she goes the night before the wedding
to her husbands tomb and prays him
not to be offended. To make quite sure
of his forgiveness she brings with her
two large goat-skins filled with water
and with these she waters the grave
that the refreshing liquid may soak
down to the defunct husbands bones.
Having thus done all she can to propi-
tiatc his spirit she goes off with a good
courage to start life again as a wife.
\ young English lady, who has not
long been in Bengal. has decided on be-
coming Yogi. or Hindu nun. She has
already put on the ocre robe and has

which is the spiritual regeneration of

were shouts of BIAS Drumont" and "Bas

United states senators Should he
Elected by the People.

Never has the necessity for constitu-
tiOnal amendment to make United States
senators elective by the people been more
apparent than it is today. The recent
senatorial election in Ohio and the last
instances of Il deliberate attempt on the
part of spoils politicians to go directly
counter to the will of the people as ex-
pressed in the elections, though there
have been other cases almost as bad.
In Ohio, if anything was determined
by the republican nominating conven-
ton. it was that Mr.. Hanna was the
party's choice for senator. The election
was fought on that issue, and Mr.. Hanna
was the chief object of democratic at
tack. That he had enemies III his own
party was well known, but that they
would dare to declare their opposition to
the will of the convention was not be-
lieved
No sooner, however, was it ascertained
that Mr.. Hanna had carried the day than
clique of small politicians undertook to
defeat him, and how near they came to
success has just been seen. Think of an
election of this character depending upon
the vote of a weak and unstable man like
Griffith. He finally stood by his instruc-
tons and voted for Mr.. Hanna, thus
electing him, but he could have defeated
him, and it was supposed ut one time
that he so intended.
In the last senatorial election in Hi
nOis the gang came near forcing Martin
h. Madden on the people as their senator.
and failing in him, tried to make it worse
by substituting Lorimer, and it was only
by the greatest effort that their machind-
tiOns were finally frustrated.
Many thoughtful persons who recOg-
nize the great difficulty there is in amend
ing the constitution have hoped that the
choice of the people us expressed in their
nominating conventions would be rati-
fled by the majority of the legislators,
just as the electors in presidential cleo
ton vote as they have been instructed
by the people. Although theoretically
every presidential elector has the right
to vote for whomsoevcr he may please,
no electOr would think of voting for any
other than the party candidate. So when
Il party convention signifies its choice
for United States senator every legisla-
tor elected by that party should consider
it an instruction that he would not dare
to disobey. But in close elections men
like Griffith. LOrimer, Jameson & Co.
are nothing for the instruction of a con-
vention.
1t is therefore imperative that the peo-
pie now begin a campaign in earnest for
an amendment to the constitution by
which United States senator's shall be
elected by popular vote.
We have suffered from legislative in
trigue, fraud and corruption in these
elections long enough; let us work for Il
better plan.-Chicago Herald.

A MODEL MODERN NARSH|H
VALUABLE ADDITION TO JAPANESE
NAVY TO BE LAUNCHED AT
PHILADELPHIA.
A PROTECTED TN|N-SGREN CRUISER
The Kasagi, Built by the Cramps for
Japan, the Rising Naval Power
of the Oriental Commerce
Destroyer.

Philadelphia, Pa, Jan. 1G.-The launch
ing of the japanese warship kasagi,
which is being built at Cramps ship yard,
will take place on Thursday ut noon.
The Kasagi is the most important ship
ever built in the United States for for
eign account and is the first foreign war
ship launched in this country since the
IObiaca, in 1873.
In compliance with requests for infor-
nation that are coming to him from all
over the country, Charles H. Cramp, the
builder of the ship, today gave the fol-
lowing interview to the Associated Press
"The Kasagi is protected twin-screw
cruiser, or commerce destroyer, of the
latest and most approvec type and de-
scripti0n in her class. Cnc is built
throughout of mild steel of the United
States navy standard. Her model is cal
culated for high speed, the contract guar
nntce being - ~ knots. She is pow
cred with two four-cylinder vertical in
vertcd direct-acting triple-expansion en-.
giness, driving twin screws. Steam is
supplied by twelve single-cnded cylin-
drical boilers provided with the St. John
CRATE and bearer bar and the machinery
calculations contemplate II maximum col
lectirc indicated horse power of about
1900.
''The Kasagi is one among large num-
Der of ships of various types and classes
embraced in the new naval program Of
Japan. A sister ship to her is building
on the Pacific coast and others of various
classes up to 14,S0G-ton battleships in
England, France, Germany or .Japan's
own dock yard ut Yokosuka. 1t is worth
while to call attention to the fact that
she is Il representative of the most mar
velous and formidable naval development
of this age; Il development that is rapidly
bringing into front rank among civilized
naval powers n nation, the ports of
which were first opened to commerce
through the instrumentality of an Ameri-
can naval expedition, clearly within the
memory of men not yet past middle age.
THE men who operate the material of
this force have demonstrated by their
behavior in the late war, and as evil
denced by the professional skill and abl-
ity they displayed in the work of super
wishing vessels under construction. that
they have no odds to ask in that respect
of the naval forces of any power.
I'm short, the whole naval policy of
Japan. as represented to Americans by
the object lesson of the Kasagi, is one
which nations far older in the arts of
western civilization would do well to en-
ulate. Failure to emulate or keep up
with it may in the not distant future
bring some of them to humiliation and
defeat"

New York, Jan. 16-Logan Carlisle

Power of the Sun.

Every day when the sun shines the
top of Bunker Hill monument is thrown
out of plumb by several inches by the
power of expansion. The side that the
suns rays fall upon is expanded, while
the opposite remains practically the same.
All the molecules on the sunny side are
thrown into greater activity, and as we
have seen. require more space in which
to move. This causes the column to bend
in the form of a curve. A curious ex-
hibition of the power of expansion is re-
lated by Tyndall as taking place on the
roof of the Bristol cathedral. He says:
''The choir of the Bristol cathedral was
covered with sheet lead, the length of
the covering being sixty feet and its
depth nineteen feet four inches. 1t had
been laid on in the year 1851, and two
years afterward it had moved bodily for
distance of eighteen inches. The de-
scent had been continually going on from
the time the lead had been laid. and an
attempt made to stop it by driving nails
into the rafters had failed, for the force
with which the lead descended was suf--
fcient to draw out the nails. The roof
was not a steep one, and the lead would
have rested there forever, without sliding
down. by gravity. What. then, was the
cause of the descent? Simply this, the
lead was exposed to the varying temper
atures of day and night. During the day
the heat impaired to it caused it to eX-
pand. Had it lain upon a horizontal sur
face it would have expanded equally all
round. but as it lay on an inclined sur
face it expanded more freely downward
than upward. When, on the contrary.
the lead contracted at night, its upper
edge was drawn more easily downward
than it's lower edge upward. Its motion
was, therefore, exactly that of a common
earthworm; it pushed its lower edge for
ward during the day and drew its upper
edge after it during the night and thus
by degrees it crawled through space
of eighteen inches in two years.
