OF the many attempts to establish

There Is matron, but her attitude
toward the dodgers is that of hostess
and householder rather than that Of
a guardian. There are no rules about
rising or retiring. The dodgers pre-
serve their individuality, and enjoy
all the rights and privileges they
would have in private lodging-house
That they appreciate these advan-
tages is shown by the fact that the
home is self-supporting. There ought
to be such institutions in every large
city, and there Is no reason why thers
should not be.

Think of the Boys.

The Baltimore Sun invites the work ing people to think between now and November of the condition of their boys-those who will be men in 1915 and 1920-if the present policy of inn perialization shall De carried out. The republic in their time will be almost impossible, if the present trend toward the empire is not speedily arrested. The voters should look to this They should be moved by sense of respon- sibility to posterity. William McKin- ley and Mark Hanna and the poii- ticians who are after the loot which attaches to the present conduct of affairs, think nothing about those who are to come after us. They are for the present loaves and fishes and brass or naments, and are regardless of the price to be paid in the future for their preferment. They think more of what is to be grabbed now than they do of the fate of their children. The escape from imprisonment is through the election of Bryan and Stevenson this year. A postponement of four years is not safe. Militarism would take a sudden extremely and dangerous growth in the event of McKinley's re- election.

It takes $32, 900, 900 a year to pay our soldiers in the Philippines, and that IS a very small part of the cost of our ''war for humanity
 c. D. Lane, the well known mine owner, who has just returned from Nome, says: "From 5000 to 10000 people at Nome are facing absolute destitution and their only possible re- lief is through the United States gov ernment."
 Chicago packers have been asked by the government to furnish 2,000, ,000 pounds of meat within 30 days for the American soldiers in the Orient. This is said to be the largest requlsition ever issued by the government of the United States.
 The change of power on the New York elevated railroads from seam to electric, will cost Sl2, 100000. The change would seem to be of dout sful expediency, especially as the eleva ted has the best record for safety of any steam railway in the country.
 How can any one intelligently tell the news which comes about opera tions in Manchuria? It would take mans working day to get the hang of the names of officers and places. What is needed is telegraph operator who will Anglicize them.
 The new King of Italy, it is said, weighs ninety seven pounds, is under five feet, climbs a chair to mount a horse and sits on a pile of cushions Tn a carriage, so as to seem larger than he is. He is coin collector, a stamp collector, and a man who likes rare bindings for books and an expert on roses and insects.
 London's anti-noise crusade has brought out the fact that there are people who like noise. These people insist that it is sign of degeneracy to be so sensitive to the roar of the street, and that it would be much bet ter for the race if such sensitive na- lures were totally extinguished.n They are, however, severely enough dealt with by their adversarieS, who brand them with the terrible name of 'strepitophiles."
 The clgar-shaped train invented by Frederick Adams and generally known as the ''wind splitter" beat all records between Philadelphia and Baltimore. The run was made from Chestnut sta ton to Baltimore in one hour and forty-one minutes. At times a speed was maintained of S2 miles an hour. It was 5:30 p. m. when the "wind splitter started It overlook the Royal Blue limited, which had gone out twenty-three minutes earlier, and had to slow down, losing several minutes, The engine which drew the wind splitter'' was of the 55-ton type, while the Royal Blue engine was 9 tons heavier.

Her PET Killed Her.

A mischievous parrot once caused
the death of a young lady named Miss
Knott. The bird had contracted the
deplorable habit of turning on the gas
Jets and reveling in the fumes, which
he seemed to enjoy. His mistress knew
of this curious mania and kept careful
watch, but one day while she was
asleep the parrot opened all the jets
unhindered. The fumes spread to 9th
er parts of the house, and the occu
pants rushed from one room to another
looking for the escape of gas. Finally
they entered Miss Knots apartments
and found the unfortunate girl lying
dead on her bed.
