"Why do club and society women
walk ungracefully was asked of the
Chicago South Side club, says the Chi

were
Because they initiate; they do not

Because they are nervous

A salvation Army Orator.

l think the best speech l ever heard
for obedience to the rules of the art
was an address of about ten minutes
by n young Salvation Army officer on
the streets of Chicago. l listened with
amazement. He was perhaps twenty
three years of age. with delicate, clear
cut features, sensitive mouth and mar
velously intelligent eyes. L was just
passing the group as he stepped into
the circle that always surrounds these
noisy but sincere enthusiasts. He took
off his hat, and in very low, per-
fectly natural and very sweet voice,
speaking exactly as though he were
hHing conversation with his most
q ldential friend. he began: You
WV admit. my friends, that human
happiness is the problem of human
life" And from this striking sentence
he went on to another equally moving,
showing of course that happiness could
not be secured by travelling any of the
usual roads, but only the straight and
narrow path which the master had
marked out. 1t was as simple as it was
sincere. And it was as conversational
as it was quiet. Saturday Evening

The Cars Illness.

London, Nov. 16.-The impression ex-
lists in most European capitals that the
illness of Emperor Nicholas is more Sc
rious than it is reported to be. but this
is probably based upon knowledge that
the Cars constitution is not strong
and is little likely to resist serious at
tack.
In Copenhagen the illness is attrib-
uted TO overwork in connection with
the Chinese crisis. and there is also II
suspicion that the hygienic conditions
and water supply at Lividia may be
faulty.
The Dowager Czarina receives n
courier twice a day. Her departure
from Fredensburg had been officially
fixed for November 26th. Preparations
have since been made for her to leave
at any moment, and the fact that she
has not started indicates that there is
no immediate danger.
1t is feared, however, that even if no
complications ensue, the attack may be
of long duration.

Keen Sense of smell.

The sense of smell, so notably devel-
oped in savages and some of the lower
animals, is not ordinarily very acute
among civilized people. An extraor-
dinary exception has been brought to
notice by DIR. Bett, German observer.
In one of his male friends the sense is
so keen that acquaintances are at once
recognized by their personal odor at n
distance of several PAGES. and the man
maks no mistakes even when securely
blindfolded. The faculty is not keener

asserts that every family has its char
acteristic odor, and that members of
the family are to be distinguished by
the degree OF the odor.

Speaking of that property, he said:

PROFESSOR AT THE
STANFORD RESIGNS

palo Alto, Gala, Nov. 16.-Dr. Ed
ward Ross, head professor in the de
partment of economics and sociology
at Stanford University, has resigned
and will sever his connection with the
university in n few weeks. The reSig-
nation was unexpected and has caused
quite II sensation in university circles,
where Dr. Ross was extremely popu-
lar. In his formal letter of resignation
DIR. Ross intimated that he was being
forced out of the university by Mrs.
Stanford. who had taken exception to
statements made by him in his public
address on sociological and economic
questions.
lie further said that Mrs. Stanford
was prompted by certain powerful per-
sons and commercial interests in San
Francisco. DIR. Ross has been CON
nected with the university for seven
years. Several of the faculty have tax
On sides with DIR. Ross, notably DR..
Howard, head of the history depart
ment.
DIR. Jordan. president of the universi-
ty, said to-day:
Mrs. Stanford's decision was
reached only after long and earnest
consideration. and that its motive was
the welfare of the university, and that
decision has not been the result of any
TASTY conclusion. but of disappoint-
ment, reflection and prayer
DIR. Jordan says: The sentence
in Il San Francisco morning paper to
the effect that men of large interest,
eastern tinanciers rs a rule, have had a
part in the determining of the relations
of DIR. Ross, is one which | cannot ac-
ccpt rs having been uttered by me.
The interests to which the reporter
meant to refer We're interests in eco
nomic science. not in finance"
Upon being shown DR.. Jordan's
statement, DIR. Ross dictated the fol-
lowing:
'Dr. Jordan knows vastly more than
l do as to Mrs. Stanford's motives.
Whatever he says is conclusive as far
as l am concerned.
I'm my original statement. which
was carefully prepared, and is strictly
correct. l said | have long been aware
that my every appearance in public
drew upon me the hostile mention of
certain powerful persons and interests
in San Francisco. and rcdoubled their
efforts to be rid of me.
Il stated this lest it should be sup
posed | did not realize the risks | ran.
If. as DIR. Jordan says. it was not this
pressure. but other motives That lnilu-
enced Mrs. stanford, am glad 30

1T is absolutely certain. however.
that the freedom of speech is involved; ;
not in my appearance. personality or
character. but solely my non-partisan.
scientific utterances have been the root
of Mrs. Stanford's distrust in me-
Supplementing his former utternnces
uDOu the subject of Professor Ross
dismissal, DIR. Howard to-day ad-
dressed his class in history upon the
matter and his address forms the most
sensational statement that has yet been
delivered in the Ross controversy. The
entire hour of the class was given up
to the discussion of free speech Dr..
Howard arraigned the influences that
brought the dismissal of the professor
and concluded his speech with this sem
sational utterance:
