1t has been proposed in New York
to prohibit by law the publication of
scandalous matter found on the per-
sons or in the possession of suicides or
of those who have attempted suicide.
This would be good thing to do.
Persons who take their own lives are
often insane. If not actually deranged,
their minds are in SO morbid condi-
ton as to unfit them for calm and ac-
curate statement. 1t often happens
that, with the intention of explaining
their act, they leave letter or scrap
of paper which reflects cruelty upon
the character Of one or more living
persons. The sensational newspapers
print the letter under glazing head
lines, and the injured person has no
redress. A mere denial counts for lit
tie, and there is no defense against
the calumnies of the dead.

Following the lean years" of the
panic hundreds of those who had
sought homes in America returned to
their native land, some comparatively
wealthy, and others not. This was a
most unusual condition and probably
will not soon occur again. From pres

from Europe to America this season.

After all. the failure of the Ameri-
can Students League of Chicago was
quite worth while. The organization
proposed to send teachers and students
to the Paris fair at an expense of S20G
apiece. 1t collected considerable money
and spent good deal on prelimina-
ries. Then, through no direct fault OF
the promoters, conditions changed sc
that the contract could not be carried
out. This has happened to other pro-
jects-and in about nine cases out OF
ten the sponsors of the project have
charged the expenses against the col.
lections. But Supt. Andrews and
Profs. Rogers, French and Rowland
who lent their names to the Students
League project, propose to pay the ex-
penses themselves and return all OF
the collections to the subscribers The
case is rare enough to deserve honor
able mention.

VIII Buy a Cruiser I'm the United
States to Disguise Payment of
Claims.
London, April 2S-The Constantine
pie correspondent of the Daily Chron-
icle says: The Turkish-American diff
ficulty is in fair way of settlement,
the sultan having promised satisfac.
ton. The rumor is revived that the
sultan intends to build cruiser in the
United States to disguise the payment
Of the indemnity. and Ahmed Pasha is
going to New York to confer with the
Cramps on The sabject.
The Constantinop'e correspond ent Of
the Daily Mail says: In addition to
rebuilding The American mission struc-
lures at Kharpoort. the sultan has
found a way of paying the claim by
purchasing cruiser built ia the United
States. the cost Of which will include
the 100000 claimed. by this adroit
measure he hopes to shelve the princi-
pie and avoid giving the powers pre-
text for pressing their claims.

Wanted by British Faction to
End Fighting in South Africa
KITCHENER, MAN FOR PLACE,
Lord Roberts lsnlency In Dealing With The
Beers COnismaaa-- -Many Factions In
Army Circles ln Great Britain.

New York, Oct. 25.-The revival OF guer-
lila warfare in South Africa, says the
Tribunes London correspondent. has
lighted up English sentiment, especially
in smart society, which is divided into
military cliqles and factions.
Lord Roberts leniency is condemned by
impatient partisans as a source OF weak
ness I'm South Africa, and the opinion is
expressed that a general as cold-blooded
as Kitchener is needed TO suppress the
Ia wlessness now in progress. Ihesc
critics make no secret of their discomfort
with Lord Roberts methods of peace
making
There Is strong Butler clique In Lon
don, which is circulating reports that he
was offered by Lord Roberts tho success
sion to command, and that he vii be re-
warded for his services by advanl ement
to the peerage.
These partisans are most bitter IN their
references To Lord Roberts. Gen. Me-
thuen also has warm friends who assert
that he has not received fair treatment,
sents his removal from command.
These evidences OF lngratitude for the
immense services rendered by Lord Rob-
erts are confined without doubt TO mill
tary factions and small social sets. The
true national feeling will be disclosed
with Lord Roberts return.
