The Outlook.

Like all the graf passions and devotlons,
love of country is in the last analysis. in

and of the moral sense: but no passionate
love of country was ever yet grounded upon

in the soil of the spiritual nature Men feel
the divine quality in the state even when
they do not recognize it; men feel the
divine element in the family even when they

thing sacred and incommunicable In ones
country. The conception is. in a sense, alb
stract; and yet nothing seems more real and
nothing is more commanding. The soil. the
landscape. the government, the magistrates,
the capital, represent but do not express
this great conception OF an invisible order
which, being not only unseen but indeftna-

THE ISLAND OF ST. THOMAS.
A Desirable Location for United
States Port.
Y. M. Jones, in Review of Reviews.

W. NJ. Jones, in Review of Reviews
The advantages of ST. Thomas as a CEN
trail, salutary, and convenient port for the
United States have always been recognized
by those who have had any knowledge of
the matter The island is about 1872 de-
grees north of the equator and thirty-six
miles east of Puerto Rico. 1t is second in
size of the Danish Virgin islands, st. Croix
containing more than double it's square
miles The Virgin group of islands was dis
covered by Columbus on his second voyage
in 1893, and were chriStened by him in mem
DRY of ST Ursula and her eleven thousand
companions whose bones are claimed still
to be preserved at Cologne. Whether Co
lumbus concluded as he felt his way among
what may well have appeared to him
to be an innumerable cluster of islets,
scattered over a space of about two degrees
of latitude and longitude, that there was
an island apiece for each of the virgin
followers Of Ursula, is uncertain, but wiser
men than Columbus have demonstrated the
fact that in this work of distribution there
are only islands enough to provide one each
ly more than dozen of the islands are now
inhabited. The total area is estimated at
465 square miles and the total population
few years ago was $1,000 The westerly
Great Britain, and the central to Denmark
The area of the Spanish islands is about
$50 square miles, that of the British about
fifty-seven square miles, and that of the
Danish 240 SQUARE miles-a probable over
estimate. The populations of these di-
visions according to the latest obtainable
information are respectively approximately
900. $500 and $4,000. The area of the three
principal Danish islands is as follows: st.
Croix, eighty square miles; ST Thomas
thirty-three square miles, ST. John, twenty
one square miles. ST. Thomas has only one
town. bearing the name of Charlotte
Amelie, but more often called by the name
of the island. st. Thomas, and it is located
on its magnificent harbor which is about
the middle of the south coast and is nearly
land-locked. The island is thirteen miles
long and has an average width of about
three miles. The harbor. SO well sheltered
and so advantageously situated in the way
Of ocean travel, is undoubtedly one of the
best and most commodious in all the West
Indies. 1t is capable of floating the largest
vessels and possesses adequate anchorage
for the entire navy of the United States and
its mercantile marine.

band to have a run yesterday, thus squar-

shut-out of Friday. Phillips was in rare
form and outpitched Fisher just enough to
win. The practically perfect support given
him was of course, big factor in the shut
out. Had Fisher received equally as good
backing the two teams might have played
nine innings without a run. Eustaces bad
throw cost the first run, and McCauleys
drop of Roat's throw home was responsible
for the other. The ST. Joe outfield had just
half the putouts, showing that Fisher was
hit considerably harder than Phillips, though
only one more clean hit is charged against
him. 1t was the shortest game of the sea-
son, being played in an hour and twenty
minutes.
The crowd gave Fisher considerable en-
couragement and seemed to enjoy having
him on the coaching line, though his eff
forts in that direction were necessarily linn
tied, owing to so few Of his men getting on

and Fisher was not much more generous,
his gifts numbered only two. The only In
dianapolis mistake was Lynch's failure to

quickly disposed Of and no damage resulted.
On three different occasions the first st. Joe
man up reached base, and in the second in

placed, but Phillips increased his speed each
time and bent the balls in and out so elu-
sively that the visitors never approached

THE WAR IN LIBRARIES.
An East-Side Demand for Books That

young. hopeful of the upper East Side
wandered into the Aguilar Free Circulating

The classification" was the regents
scheme for arranging books on the shelves,
which was posted in a conspicuous place
in the library 1t was devised by Mr.. Dew
said. everybody knows is one of the most
peaceful of men,
These are fairly typical examples, the
librarians at the circulating libraries say,
of the de demands for Or books made almost
every day. Ever since the war broke out
there has been run on the free libraries
for books relating to Spain, Cuba and the
Philippines, and works on military and ma
val tactics. And as soon as there began
to be any fighting the demand extended to
lives of military and naval heroes, stories
of battle and sieges and anything that might
be expected to thrill persons whose fighting
blood was up. First come the children. The
boys of the East Side go to the libraries to
draw books. about the men whose names
they see in large type in the war extras.
Failing to get these, they content them
selves with the Red Badge of Courage or
Kings Cadet Life" And if these books
have already been loaned. one resource still
is left to them. please, may ]. enjoy the
library?'' is the next request, which means,
the librarians have to learn. that the young
sters want to revel among the illustrated
weeklies. But the children are not the only
readers who want to be thrilled with tales
of blood and daring. The novel readers
have also come under the spell of war.
