either by ties of blood or marriage.
In keeping with the traditions OF his
ancestors he entered the profession OF
law; but, like his father, he soon
withdrew from the profession on the
conviction that he was called into
other lines of work. Both father ana

years past with many philaathropic en-
terprises and both have given llberally
of their means to worthy objects. he
is thirty-three years old, good looking,
polished. and like all the Paines, tall
and slender. In his short career ne mas
done some things that indicated his
striking independence Of character. Al
a dinner early last year of the Massa-
chusetts Reform Club, an organiza-
ton of many of the most distinguished
men of the state, he startled the cen
seravtive opponents of a war with
Spain for Cuba's freedom by speaking
in favor of war, standing alone In
this attitude among all the other mem
bers. He went further than the speech
however, for when war was declared
he raised military company and Of
fered it to the governor, who declined
its services. Thereupon Paine 1mme-
diately enlisted as private in the
Massachusetts artillery and served in
that capacity throughout the Spanish
war; t.. ..t'|

TO ARBITRATE OUR CLAIMS.

After eight years delay it is an
nounced that Russia has agreed to ar
bitrate the claims of American sealers
whose ships were seized by Russian
vessels off the coast of Siberia. The
claims, which aggregate only $15O,OOO,
will be submitted to T. M. G. Asser,
one of the most distinguished lawyers
of Holland and member of the Dutch
Council OF State, and his decision Is
to be final. The three American ships
were about eight miles off the coast of
Asia when they were seized. Hereto
fore it has been held by writer's on
international law that the marine jur-
isdiction Of nation extends only one
marine league from its coast. A league
was the range of one of the old-fash-
toned cannon and on that fact the de-
cision was based. Now Russia claims
