Matters That Are Engaging Atten-
tiOn of Peace Conference.
PROPOSALS BY RUSSIA
QUESTION OF THE EXEMPTION
OF PRIVATE PROPERTY.
Has Entered Upon New Stage
Through Issue of the Statement
of American Delegates-Better to
Destroy Property Than Lives An
Argument Advanced.

London, June 25.-The correspondent
of the Times at The Hague says:
Following is the text of Russia S
naval proposal:
''Acceptation of the principle that for
the term of three years the Eum of
naval budgets shall be determined with
an engagement not to increase the total
during that triennial period, and with
an obligation of announcing in advance
for that said period:
First, the total in tonnage of those
ships of war which it is proposed to
build, without specifying the models
thereof; second, the number of officers
and crews in the navy; and third, the
expenditures on works and ports, such
as forts. docks, arsenals and the like
The question of the exemption Of pri-
vate property at sea from capture in
time of war has entered on a new stage
through the issue OF the statement of
the American delegates. I hear on good
authority that a certain foreign power
may extend the discussion to the dec
laration of Paris, with a view to get
ting rid of one feature which is not con-
sidered advantageous.
The first half of the voluminous paper
is merely summary of past action on
the part of the United States in the
Property of Citizens.
Private property of all the citizens
or subjects of the signatory powers,
with the exception of contraband of
war. shall be exempt from capture or
seizure on the high seas or elsewhere
by the armed vessels or by the military
forces of any of the said signatory
powers, but nothing herein contained
shall extend the exemption from seizure
to vessels and their cargoes which may
attempt to enter a port blockaded by
the naval forces of any of said powers.
The American delegates, referring to
the fact that the circular of Count
Muravieff excludes extraneouS matters,
saw:
THE fact of our having received the
instructions herein referred to from the
president of the United States shows
that our government believed that the
scope of the conference was wide
enough to include this question
They urge as an argument that their
proposal, if adopted as a rule of war,
would ameliorate the hardship of naval
warfare. but it has been conclusiVely
proved by experience in past wars that
the destruction of sea-borne commerce
is one of the most humane ways of re-
ducing the power of an enemy. AS
great thinker once observed, IL is better
to destroy mems property than their
lives.
For the moment the question is whe-
ther the subject is one which can. con-
sistentIy with the terms of the Mura-
vieff circular, be submitted to the con-
ference. 1t seems scarcely probable
that the matter will be solved in
sense favorable to the American pro-
posal. At all events some of the lead
ing delegates consider it outside the
of the conference.

The poem is an Interpretation of Mil
let's famous painting known by that
name, now in California. We quote
the lines as they appeared in the San
Francisco Examiner:
Bowed with the weight OF centuries he
leans
Upon his hoe and gazes on the ground
The emptiness of ages in his face,
And on his back the burden of the
world.
Who made him dead to rapture and
despair,
A thing that grieves not and that never
hopes,
Stolid and stunned, a brother to the
OK?
Who loosened and let down his brutal
jaw?
Whose was the hand that slanted back
this brow?
Whose breath blew out the light with
in this brain?
Is this the thing the LORE. God made
and gave
To have dominion over sea and land,
To trace the stars and search the
heavens for power;
To feel the passion of Eternity?
Is this the Dream He dreamed who
shaped the suns
And pillared the blue armament with
light?
Down all the stretch of He'll to it's last
gulf
There is no shape more terrible than
this
More tongued with censure of the
worlds blind greed
More filled with signs and portents for
the soul
More fraught with menace to the uni
verse.
What CULTS between him and the sera-
phim!
Slave of the wheel of labor, what to
him
Are Plato and the swing of Plefades?
What the long reaches of the peaks of
song,
The rift of dawn, the reddening of the
rose?
Through this dread shape the suffering
ages look;
Times tragedy is in that aching stoop;
Through this dread shape humanity
betrayed,
Plundered, profaned and disinherited,

MARKHAM wanted to show the mis-
cradle condition of the hard working
farmer-the slavery of the toiler-the

"Why, John Dobley, you know you

HOW TO TILT THE HAT.

The arrangement of the hair in the
nape of the neck is one which creates
great dicuIties in millinery matters.
Nothing is more terrible or disfguring
to the contour of the face than gap
between the crown of the hat and the
coils of the hair. Yet many girls are
to be seen who allow themselves to be
such objects. A veil brought around
thickly under the chin and tied above
the brim somewhat mitigates the evil,
but it exists, nevertheless, and another
one attendant on it, viz, the angle at
which the hat is worn, setting in alb
solutely a straight line across the head
aid coming low down on the forehead,
with the result that becomingness is
reduced to a minimum. The angle for
the hat when the couture is low is
slightly off the forehead when the
comb, now so much in vogue, is in
serted at the base of the crown coils;
then the hat tips slightly downward.
Another method Of Disgusting the
vacuum between the crown and Golf
fure is to have a half-circle of flowers,
preferably crush roses, beneath the
brim; but this is only when the hat
is of fancy straw, such as the glossy
kind which this season has introduced
to us.
