IN one current, but in two; ana
while the older has shown little

which has changed the face of the

CHAT AND STORY
HEARD IN HOTELS.

September. 1900, which worked such awful
havoc at Galveston.
Mr.. Stump's Introduction to Port Ar
thur as a newspaper man was unique.
The town was formally opened for set
tiers and investors in the spring of 1897.
To attract visitors the railroad ran cheap
excursions from Kansas City and the
North twice month. One OF the largest
of these excursions left Kansas City ON
March 16, 1897. ''At that time said Mr..
Stump, Il was publishing a small paper
at the little station of Asbury, No. By
special arrangement with the railroad
people my office was put in the baggage
car of the excursion train. The plant was
a small affair. and was set up in work
ing order in the car. AS the train rolled
southwark busy printers were setting
type. and within an hour after the train
reached Port Arthur the first number OF
the News was issued from its office on
wheels"
Since that time the News has ap-
peared regularly, and an index of its
growth and the development OF the town
during that time may be CLEANED from
the fact that Mr.. Stump expects to visit
New York before hisreturn home and buya
tyepsetting machine for this thriving
paper.

Peking, the publication has been recon-

This remarkable journal is commonly
termed by Europeans the Peking Ga.

the proceedings of the general council Of
the Empire.
1t was established shortly after the
Chinese invented the art of printing, and
1t has Systematically continued through
long succession of centuries to publish
an oilcial record or registry. announcing
such changes in office as occur from time

Sence relating to laws, taxation or public
events. as the Government desires to

4 Distinguished Veteran.

One of the remarkable men of this coun-
try is Gen. George F. McGinnis, the
greatly liked postmaster Of Indianapolis,
who stood convers'ng with his friend
Hon. \. W. Wishard, solicitor of internal
revenue, in the lobby Of the Riggs.
He is almost as erect as when a mere
lad he did service in the Mexican war.
and TO look on his sturdy form. and feel
the vigorous pressure of his handshake.
one would scarcely guess that he was
seventy-six years old. The fine reputa-
tation won by him in Mexico was increased
by his services for the Union and his gall
lantry was rewarded by numerous promo
tions. He was colonel of the Eleventh
Indiana. the regiment previously COM
manded by Gen. Lew Wallace.
General McGinnis has lived in Indianap-
oils almost fifty-two years, and not long
ago he and his wife celebrated their golden
wedding. He told a Times reporter
that until a recent sall from street car,
in which he got severe shai.ug-up.
he could run n footrace with any young
ster. The general is a sturdy Republi-
can, but he has the affection of his towns
men, irrespective of partisan afilliation.

Among the guests of the Arlington is

The Future of the English Langual
BY BRANDER MATTHEWS.

the conditions of life resemble
those of the United States rather
than those of Great Britain. The
British Isles are the birthplace
of our race, but they no longer
contain the most important
branch of the English speaking
peoples. On both sides of the At
lantic, and afar in the Pacific
also. and along the shores of the
Indian Ocean, are the subjects of
King Shakespeare, the students
of Chaucer and Dryden, the read
ers of Scott and Thackeray and
Hawthorne: but most of them. or
at least the largest single group,
viii be i'm the United States at
the end of the twentieth century,
as they were at the end of the
nineteenth.
No one has more clearly seen
the essential unity of the English
speaking race, and no one has
more accurately stated the rela-
tion of the American branch of
this race to the British branch.
than the historian of the English
people. In his chapter on the in
dependence of America, the late
.John Richard Green recorded the
fact that since 1776 the life of
the English people has flowed not

TWO apparently contradictory
tendencies are today yis-
L ible One of them is re-
vcaled by our increasing
interest in the less important lam
guages and in the more import
ant dialects. The other is to be
seen in the immense expansion of
the several peoples using the
three or four most widely spoken
tongues, an expansion rapidly Civ
ing them supremacy which rem
ders hopeless any attempt of the
less important languages ever to
equal them.
If we can guess at the future
from our acquaintance with the
past, we are justified in believing
that the world language of the
twentieth century, should any one
tongue succeed in winning miver-
sal acceptance, will be English. If
it is not English, then it will not
be-German or Spanish or French;
it will be Russian.
We Americans must awake to n
sense of our responsibility as the
chief Of the English speaking peo-
pies. The tie that binds the Brit
ish colonies to the British crown
is strong only because it is loose;

Suicide Treatment.

DR.. Parkhurst says that he has a
prearranged treatment for people
who come and tell him that they
are contemplating suicide. He tells
them to stop contemplating, and
go do it-jump into the water-and
as soon as they are fairly wet they
will be cured of the feeling of want
ing to commit suicide. This is very
good advice and practical. There
is nothing like common sense in
dealing with sham emotions, and
some of the emotions which lead
people to contemplate self-destruc-
tion are sham. The real suicide is
a pathetic figure; the make-believe
one is nothing but 'poseur, and
in nine cases out of ten would be
cured of his complaint by one duck
ing.
The rule formulated by DR.. Park
hurst would hold good in some
other situations besides the one
referred to. Half the morbidness
and trouble in this world comes
from taking too long views. and
thinking over actions which one
will probably never commit. and
situations in which one will prob
ably never be placed. Finally. per-
han hn
or her self-control ard actually
plunges into serious difficulties,
when Il little experiment would
have Strengthened out the whole
matter.
1t was once said by cynical OBJ
server that every married pair, at
some time or other, become con-
vinced that their marriage was the
mistake of their lives. Usually this
mood happens rather early in the
course of the experiment-within a
year-and then, If unwise friends
and relatives fan the flame of re-
sentiment. or hot tempers and
strong wills aggrava'e 1t, serious
trouble may result. 1t would seem
to be a good plan in such a case
for the couple to try getting along
without each other, and endeavor
to imagine that they have taken
the final plunge and gotten a di-
vorce. In most cases they would
come to their senses in double
quick time, and find that all the
mistake they had made was in
thinking that they had made one.
