According to Southey the possession
of both shall" and will by the Eng
llsh language gives 1t a peculiar advan-
tage over most other languages. The
fact is that. though the two words are
used carelessly by most of us there are
occasions when the choice between
them, or some other auxiliary, becomes
very important. a case recently came
up before the London Tribunal Of APP
peal which turned entirely on the mean
ing of the word shall" The London
building act says that In exceptional
certain cases the London County Coun-
Gil shall sanction changes in building
plans" The parties interested urged
that SHALL" as here used, was manda-
tory, and that the sanction Of the Com
mon Council was thus merely minis
terial act which they were bound to per-
form. They maintained that Parlia-
ment would have used the word may

permissive directions. The tribunal
held In favo- Of the applicants. thus
confirming the view that In case OF
doubt, shall is mandatory.

The latest idol shattered by the icon
oclast of science is the keenness of
vision of the red Indian. 1t is ascer-
tanned by practical tests that he can
see no farther and no more distinctly
than the average white man; but his
manner of life has made him more OBJ
servant of things about him, and more
quick and sure in drawing conclusions
from what he sees. That Is all. A
white man tfained In the same way
would possess in an equal degree the
same desirable qualities.

Ancestral worship, which Is a prln-

sometimes bears fruit in tilial devo-
ton which 1t would be hard to find
among the nations who are at present
preying upon the Chinese Empire. For
example, at Canton. few weeks ago,
a young man eighteen years Of age was
executed on the charge of murder, al
though 1t was known he was not guilty.
A Shanghai paper, in commenting upon
the incident, spoke OF the large amount
of sympathy that was felt for the con-
demned man, because 1t was so well
known that the actual murderer was
his father. In order to save his parent
and satisfy the law of life for life"
the son gave himself up as soon as he
knew that his father had done the deed.

The naval constructors who have ex-
amined the wrecks OF Ceryera's cruis-
ers on the coast of Cuba are convinced
that the Maine was blown up by an ex-
ternal explosion. One of the purposes
of the examination of the wrecks was
to settle that question. and there Is no
longer any doubt, 1t Is said, upon the
point in dispute. The magazines on all
these cruisers exploded, and in not one
of the wrecks were there found injuries
similar to those found In the hull Of
the Maine. In no case was the keel
upheayed. and there was little bullying
of the plates such as was noticeable
in the wreck of our warship. While
no further evidence was required to
convince the American people that the
Maine was destroyed by an explosion
brought about by some agency over
which the Spanish officials Of Havana
had control, it Is gratifying, neverthe-
less, to know that conclusive proof OF
the commission of a horrible crime In
the harbor of Havana has been fur.
nished by the examination of the
wrecks of the Spanish cruisers
| Throughout the navy the belief was
general and well grounded that the
blowing up of the Maine was the re
suit of Spanish plot and that 1t why
the battle-cry, Remember the Maine,
was such an inspiration to American
seamen and American gunners. While
revenge is not praiseworthy senti
ment for Christian people to cherish
no American can very well think o
the fate of the go brave seamen wh'
were killed in Havana harbor whil
they were asleep without desiring tina
such an awful punishment shall b.
melted out to the nation that was re
sponsibie for that crime.

Some oldest inhabitant or historical
deliver has unearthed the following
from the London Times of Oct. ID, 1913:
"The fact seems to be but too clearly
established that the Americans have
some superior mode of firing and We
cannot be too anxiously employed In
discovering to what circumstance that
superiority is owing" SO 1t seems the
superiority OF American gunnery was
