Rear Admiral Valois recently pub
lished book entitled "Seekraft, See
geltung, Seeherrschaft," which is at
tracing great attention in political,
military and naval circles. 1t contains
a powerful argument that the United
States, as a leading colonial and ex-
porting power, will necessarily become
keener competitor of England, and
that it is to the interest of both the
United States and Germany to join
hands in curtailing Great Britain's sea
and colonial power.
The writer strongly advises a naval
alliance between the United States and
Germany on other grounds, and con-
siders the possibility Of France and
Holland joining the United States and
Germany in naval and colonial matters.
Lieutenant Commander William H.
Bechler, United States naval attache in
Berlin, Vienna and Rome, who has sent
a partial translation of the book to
Washington. considers 1t the strongest
exposition of naval policy and the most
important naval work that has ap-
peared for years.

Ilrht from sugar.

A phenomenon. the cause of which
has not yet been satisfactory explain
ed. was described at tie last meeting
of the British Association. Disks of
loaf sugar were mounted on a lathe
and rapidly rotated while hammer
played lightly against them. An al
most continuous radiation of light was
thus produced from the sugar. It was
shown that the light did not arise
from heating of the sugar. and 1t is
believed to be caused by some change
taking place in the sugar crystals. The
act OF capitalization is known to be
sometimes accompanied by flashes of
light. The practical bearing of these
experiments is on the question of the
possibility of obtaining artificial light
by methods as yet untried.

THE WHITE MANS HuRpEN.

The following poem by Rudyard Kip
ling appeared in McClure's Magazln,
for February. 1t has attracted grea
deal of attention and several parOdie,
upon 1t have appeared In various pub
lications: y
Take up the white Mans burden
SEND forth the best ye breed
Go, bind your sons to exile
To serve your captives' need;
On fiuttered folk and wild
Half devil and half child.
Take up the White Mans burden
In patience to abide.
To veil the threat of terror
And check the show Of pride;
BY open speech and simple.
An hundred times made plain.
To seek anothers profit
And work anothers gain.
Take up the White Mans burden
FIJI full the mouth OF Famine,
4. And bid the sickness cease:
And when your goal Is nearest
lThe end for others soughH
Watch sloth and heathen folly
Bring all your hope to nought.
Take up the White Mans burden
No iron rule Of kings,
But toll OF serf and sweeper-
The tale of common things.
The ports ye shall not enter,
The roads ye shall not treai.
10, mike tNeW Win your HSlnS
And mark them with your dead.
Take up the White Mans burden,
And reap his old reward
The blame OF those ye better.
The hate of those .ye guard
The cry of hosts ye humor
(Ah. slowlyD toward the iight:-
why brought ye us from bondage
Our loved Egyptian night?"
Take up the White Mans burden
Ye dare not stoop to less
Nor call too loud on Freedom
To cloke your wearines5.
By all ye will or whisper,
By all ye leave or do,
Tho silent sullen peoples
Shall weigh your God and you.
Take up the White Mans burden!
Have done with childish days
The liEhtly-proffered laurel.
The easy ungrudged praise:
Comes now. to search your. manhood
Through all the thankless years,
Cold edged with dear-bouHht wisdom,
The judgment of your peers.

The American who visits Tahiti for
the first time will find himself in a
land entirely unlike any other place
in the world. The conventionality of

somewhat resembles American forms.
But out in the districts. out in the

cocoanuts grow. and vanilla and cof-
fee plantations thrive in the sun. there

is not customary to wait for an in

very important subject. I told him

NANCE O'NElL IN LEAH"

Nance O'Neil, the talented young Cali
fornia actress scored another big success
last night at The Grand in Leah" in
The Jewess,'' her Interpretation of the
character receiving the generous appre-
citation of a fair sized audience. In fact
she carried the ~sympathies of the audi
ence with her so strongly as to make the
impulse to go on the stage and Stay her
prosecutors almost irrepressible.
1t was indeed a master piece of acting,
Withal so real that one could scarcely be-
lieve it was mere acting. The curse scene
in the third act was the most magnificent
piece of work ever seen in Butte and fair
ly electrified the audience which called
her before the curtain again ard again.
Perhaps nothing betterin the way of emo
tiOnal acting has been seen in years thar
her scene at the home of her false lover.
When she rushed into the priests house
seeking protection from the bowling mob
at her heels, with her arms outstretched
and her hair flying Wildly-it was a pic
ture never to be forgotten.
The support was good. AS Father Lo-
REM H. A.. Weaver, had al opportunity
for good work, of which he took advan-
tage w. Henderson as the village bar
Der and leech supplied the comedy ele-
nlent. c. j. Swickart, the apostate Jew
was acceptable and Miss OfNeil was
well seconded in her best scenes by Her
bert Carr as Joseph.
