Agulnaldo's address should do much
toward the speedy settlement Of the
military situation In the Philippines.
The Importance attached to this act by
General Macarthur Is shown by his re-
lease Of 1000 prisoners. Doubtless ere
long the military occupation OF the is
lands VIII be reduced to garrison estab-
lishments, and the major portion Of the
army viii be sent home. This end Is
much to be desired not only because Of
the hardshlps ana expenditures of war;
but also for the beneft Of the Fllpinos
generally and the removal of war spec
ulations from the reach of pernicious
political agitators IN this country.

In summonng up the last Of the
lectures Of Prof. William knight OF st.
Andrews University on THE Phlloso-
phic Undertones Of Modern Poetry"
writer in the Boston Transcript gives
the following as the professors opinion
Of Matthew Arnold.
Arnold, with advantages for clu-
ture that come to few, and possessed Of
the greatest dellcaoy and refinement.
was brilliant prose critic, but as a
poet lacked the intensity and the well
ling up Of poetic thought In the soul
which marks q poet born"
That Is Just estimate. Arnold Is a
correct but unlnspired poet. In one Of
his letters he says that the poet has ito
tear himself to pieces to get out the
best that is in him. And the anne cri-
tclsm may be appli d to Arnods poetry
by his readers. He lacks spontaniety
and that stirring Of the soul that gives
rise TO thoughts that lie too deep for
utterance." He was first OF all a critic,
and critic OF the first order. His was
clearly case OF a poet made and not
born.

PAT GROVE ARRESTED AGAIN.
This Time the Omaha Kidnapar is in
Tolls for Certain.

NEW HAVEN, CoNN.. Sept. 30.-A
man who is believed to be Pat Grove
was arrested at Plainfield Junction To-
night as he came along on a freight
train. The arrest was made by Deputy
Sheriff George Bliyin, Of Central
Village. He is supposed to have gone
to Willimantic with the prisoner.
The reward Of 5000 which E. A.
Cudahy, Of Omaha, offers for the arrest
Of the alleged kidnaper still holds
good. A similar reward offered by the
city Of Omaha was withdrawn shortly
after the acquittal of James Callahan,
Groves alleged confederate.
The city's action was due to the be-
lief that Grove might voluntarily face
trial. His conviction depended largely
upon the anne testimony which prov.
ed insufficient to hold Callahan. Since
that time q number Of men supposed
10 be Grove have been arrested in vari.
our parts Of the country but In each
the prisoner turned out to be some one
else. How closely the present suspect
tallies with the description OF the
western fugitive can not be ascertain
ed until the officer comes in with his
man.

President is We'll Guarded

WASHINGTON, D.. c., Sept 28.-
President Roosevelt refused to permit
any police Of detective protection and
is probably not aware that a secret
officer is In and about the White
House at hours when many callers are
coming in TO see the President.
This officer quietly keeps an eye on
all arrivals. There is always the dan
ger that some crank OF eYil-disposed
person may enter the White House
with no good purposes in view. Pres
ldent Roosevelt has been accessible to
an unusual degree and the proper
authorities do not intend that this
accessibility shall be imposed upon.
The presence of the officer at the
White House has revived stories Of
warnings received By the Secret
Service Bureau but the presence of
the officer is merely a precaution that
really ought to be taken until the
number Of callers upon the President
decreases

Reverence for Law.

80 AAtA AaNEsA
The home, the church, the school,
the press should inculcate reverence
for law. AS was finely pointed out by
William H. Wallace the other day dis
obedience in children is a dangerous
sign Of the times. The breaking Of
the Sunday law by the sellers of liquor
Is another sign of the growing disre-
gard for the statutes. Public officials
decline to prosecute law-breakers be-
cause they assert public sentiment viii
not endorse the prosecution. They
are more interested in keeping their
Jobs than in keeping their oaths.
Many preachers condone or counsel
lynch law and cry aloud for force. All
this breeds disregard for law, a spirit
of irreyeranee that is pale-faced an
arehy. The surest prevention Of an
archy is the education OF the people to
a respect for the established law.

THE FATAL THIRTEEN.
The Editor Of the Ledger Takes His
Chances at a Banquet.

From the Butler Mol Democrat
At birthday banquet given to his
friends BY the former sheriff OF Bates
county, James r. Simpson, there were
just thirteen sat down to the table,
and the sheriff and the editor OF this
paper, who we're two Of the thirteen,
are still alive. 1t was not discovered
until afterwards. This was years ago.
This was repeated last Thursday
evening at a feast at the School for the
Deaf at Fulton. AT the table were
Hon. Champ Clark, Prof. N. B. Nc
Kee, Col. r. NJ. White, editor Mexico
LEDGER, w. d. Thomas and Wallace
Williams, editors Fulton Sun and
Telegraph, respectively, Gen. M. f..
Bell, G. W. Jameson, ex-President Of
the Board and President Southern
Bank, w. Ed. Jameson, President Of
Asylum Board, together with the
present members Of the Bord, con
sisting of DR.. f. H. Kallmeyer, DIR.
Samuel A. Pence, Samuel N. Wilson,
]. f. Henderson and N. A. Wade,
making in all the so-regarded unlucky
thirteen. Attention was called TO it
after the feast.
1t is supposed that one of the thir-
teen will die before the year is over,
which did not happen in the former
case, and II Is not probable that, from
the way they partook Of the vlands,
any will die in this case within that
period unless 1t is from oyer-eating.
The editor OF this paper regards it
of no consequence and the other
twelve seemed to treat it lightly, but
nearly everyone shuns "unluckly thir-
teen" as much as possible.
Col. Bob White is certainly a host
at banquets in entertaining CONVEX
sation. He has an unquestionable
splendid appetite, also. He has the
reputation OF being the most popular
newspaper man in the State, as well
as being a very able writer. Col. Bob
White and Col. Bob Mitchell, of the
Nevada Post, were schoOlmates and
are fast friends now.
