HAS INTELLECTUAL LIFE UTTERLY DE
CLINEDy

President Patton of Princeton University, in
an address to the students at the beginning OF
the academic year, suggested the most impor-
tant subject in the whole range of academic work
"a range wider than academic work, In fact
when he said that we had suffered an utter
decline in intellectual life"
American life has undoubtedly drifted away
from the intellectual ideals of the former gener-
alton away from the old love of literature, away
from classical studies 1t is doubtful whether
the present world of learning Itself knows OF
cares for literature in the same spirit as the
world of learning of a generation or two ago
knew it and cared for it. Certainly it cannot
even write our language with ANYTHING OF tne
old charm There is no teacher OF literature In
America to whose writings any audience looks
as the cultivated public looked to Lowels Inc
old kind cf culture is, If not obsoescent, at least
out of the fashion If President Patton meant
this by "the utter decline in intellectual lie ne
was right. -.

Hail. Illustrated. Octave, PIP l5s l. L. bu'to'

With golf and other athletic pursuits Tor
women occupying much of their time now
adays. the claims of the needle are, perhaps
not unjustly supposed to have suffered neglect
Doubtless there are many rnaidens in the posi-
ton Of that amiable lady imInortaiized oy ou
Maurier. the lady who begged the Oriental ac-
ouaintance she made in a London drawing room
to tell her how to do 'zenana stitch" But the
art of the needIeworker survives outside of
professional circles despite the pressure OF open
air interests and especially among members or
the church. \ recent popular novel has given
us vivid picture OF the devotion of the nuns in
an English convent to the vestments In their
care That devotion. we fancy. could be paral-
leled elsewhere than in conventual establish
ments and there is to be an appreciatiNe
public for Miss Halls handbook
She has great deal that is valuable ana
interesting to teach her readers on materials
on designing. on stitches and on the production
of the various pieces used in the church ser
vice She has also some fascinating examples
to show Them her book being filled with good
illustrations. Her subject has a noble past.
AS she remarks the art of embroidery is of the
greatest antiquity. and it has been chiefly de-
voted to ecclesiastical purposes. In the hrS'
ages of the Christian era Miss Hall says we
find the clerical vestments. the altar hangings
and the curtains of the churches all decorated
with the most elaborate designs. The whole
history of the Church worked upon the
toga of a Christian Senator, and Anastasus
records the subjects of these embroideries.

glances sufficiently at the historic phases Of

taken up with practical advice on the manner
in which modern work may best be produced.
To all students of needlework. and especially to
those women interested in the vestments and
altar decorations needed in their parishes we
can warmly commend this publication.

Revenger shot his neighbor, Nels Oh
son, in the neck, the bullet emerging
at the mouth. The murderer escaped
at the time, but was found dead on
the prairie with his face shot away.
He had fired his shotgun with his toe.
Later It was learned that the would
be murderer met Pete Lavine while on
his way to kill Olson and fired at Lee
vines head. Levine was saved by his
leather cuff. the shot striking his
wrist. That Revenger was deliberate
murderer and suicide is shown by a
letter written the night before his
crimes. He claimed the neighbors had

and he had resolved to kill them. DR..
Snyder and constable brought Re-

havana, April 14.-At private ses-
SION last night the convention-1s to 10
adopted motion expressing the
opinion that the convention is opposed
TO the Platt amendment on account OF
the terms in which some Of the clauses
are drawn, and the contents Of others.
After voting this it was proposed to
dissolve the convention. The question
OF sending q commission to Washing
ton was not voted upon. A conserva-
tive delegate, who previously favored
a commission, says that those moder-
ates who favored it will now oppose it
as being useless after last nights vote.
1t is considered that the conventions
action is half-hearted way of reject
ing the Platt amendment, and that it
was largely due to the animosity of
some of the delegates against Gen.
Wood, they being anxious to show him
That he was wrong in his forecast that
the convention would adopt the
amendment.

washington, April IA. - The report
tnat Aguinaldo fears assassination at
the hands of the late Gen. Luna's fol-
lowers explains to army officers the
reason why he has been kept at Gen.
MacArthur's palace.
Gen. Luna was one Of the best in.
surgent leaders who followed Aguinal-
90 into making war upon the Ameri-
cans. He was a bold and aggressive
nghter, but after the defeat at Malo-
las he reported to Aguinaldo that the
insurgents could not cope with the
Americans and they had better make
the best terms possible. Luna sent a
delegation to Manila to discuss matters
with Gen. Otis and the Philippine COM
mission. After agreeing to this plan
Agulnaldo sent for Gen. Luna and had
him assassinated in his presence.
y Army officers who were in the Phil
1ppines say that the followers of Luna
have sworn vengeance on :Aguinaldo,
and they do not believe the insurgent
chief will ever be safe from assassina-
ton Ill Manila or in that part of Luzon
unless he is kept under the protection
of the Americans. War department Of
fcials believe that Gen. Macarthur
VIII keep Aguinaldo prisoner for
some time to come as much for his own
safety as to prevent him from starting
another instruction.
Aggy's Successor.
Paris, April .14.-Agoncillo, the agent
OF Aguinaldo in Paris, received cable
gram announcing that the Filipino
general SanGico has been elected to
succeed, .Aguinaldo as commanding
general of the Filipino forces as well
as dictator during the continuation of
the Instruction. Sandico belongs to
a distinguished family residing at
Pandakan, near. Manila. He is a man
of energy and is well educated, speak.
ing several European languages.
AS announced Monday, April 8, in a
dispatch from Manila, Gen. Sandico
surrendered to the American authori-
ties at Cabanatuan, in the province Of
New Ecija, Island of Luzon. 1t was
added that Sandico has bad record
and may be tried.
