Senator Depew and Representative
Woods, the latter of California, are
two members of Congress who are
never failing sources of news and sto-
ries for newspaper men. Mr.. Woods is
ever read to go to any amount OF trou-
BILE for the correspondents.
Baron Henri de Rothschild, who is
a distinguished physician and a spe-
cialist in infantile disease, not only
drives motor cars, but manufacturers
them. His automobile business is now
to be pushed forward on new lines.
A scheme has been elaborated under
his instructions for turning it to phi
lanthropic purposes. Next door to his
hospital for children he has opened a
motor car factory, and all the profits
of the latter are to be devoted to the
former. He expects to sell about 100
cars a year. In this case the hospital
win benefit to the extent of $4,000 per
onnum.
William E. Curtis, describing in
letter to the Chicago Record Herald the
Mosque of Omar. at Jerusalem, tells
about the footprint of Mahomet and
how a Moslem guide explained it: ''At
one corner of the rock is shown de-
preston, called the footprint of Ma
homet. Here the prophets foot last
touched the earth as he departed on
his heavenward journey, and a little
further away another depression shows
where the Archangel Gabriel laid his
hand upon the rock and held it down
by main force when it was rising with
Mahomet. When Mahomet, he go
heaven, holy rock he say he go, too
was the explanation given US by lisa,
our dragoman, whose English vocabu-
larry and information concerning Scrip
tural things are not natural, but ac-
quired. And Angel Gabriel, he put
his paw on it here, and he say, mo,
rock, you can't go with Mahomet. You
must stay. 1 keep YOU and so the
rock he stay down."

HARM SOCIETY is DOING.

In his sermon to the graduating class
President Taylor of Vassar College
talked very frankly. He told the girls
that society was doing an infinite
amount of harm by its tendency to
pleasure and it's extravaganza. 1t puts
ideas into the minds of young people
that turn them away from matrimony
The young men hesitate to marry be-
cause they are afraid they couldn't
earn enough to satisfy the wants of
themselves and their wives. They feel
they must do as the social
and there have been such pros
porous times for number of
years, and there is so much wealth,
that there is great recklessness in the
spending of money. OF course the vast
majority are not wealthy, but the per-
centage that is. is so large as to have a
decided influence on society generally.
II would be unjust of course to girls
to say that they turn aside from poor
and struggling young men in search of
cannot help but be influenced by the
many evidences of extravaganza which
are brought to their notice in one way
and another.
President Taylor called attention to
the introduction of the smoking habit
among the ultra fashionable set, the
costly presents given to brides-some
of them valued at many thousands of
dollars-and other matters which help
ed him to impress upon the graduating
girls that there We're many pitfalls to
be avoided if they would have happy
lives and contented homes. He told
them that 1t would require great effort
on their part to follow the course which
judgment told them was the right one.
The average American girl is endow-
ed with rare good sense. AS rule she
can be depended upon to do what is
right. Still. she is likely to encounter
unhappiness and defeat if she desires
too strongly to indulge in the extrava-
gance of society or places too much
stress upon the pleasures which wealth
alone makes possible.

WEST POINT.

The celebration of the centennial an
niversary of the United States Military
Academy at West Point is an occasion
of deep interest to the country at large.
The people of the South feel as much
pride in the famous school as do those
Of the North, for in the only war the
South ever fought as a nation, her bril-
liant armies were led by West Pointers,
as were those of her enemy. There was
nothing but glory in that war for West
Point. The marvellous feats of Lee and
Jackson as we'll as the successes of
Grant and Sheridan reflected highest
credit upon the school in which they
were trained for their military careers.
The two great armies in the war Illus
trated the fact that Americans are the
best soldiers in the world, and the lead
ing of them illustrated the fact that
West Point stands at the front of nat
ional military schools.
The centennial date, by the way, does
not fall in June, but in March. The
academy actually came into existence
on March 16, 1902. 1t was not deemed
advisable, however, to stop the cadets
in the midst of their studies to take
part in the anniversary exercises, so
the date of the celebration was held up
a little and the date for the graduating
of the cadets in their last year was
advanced a little, so that both occa-
sions were merged into one, the consol-
idated event being more impressive
and interesting than either the centen-
NAL or the commencement would have
been if held separately.
Despite it's comparative youth, it is
risking nothing to say that West Point
is the leading school of it's kind in the
world. 1t has profited by the ex-
perience of older schools. It's methods
and courses embrace the best in the
science of military education culled
from Europe or originated in America.
Its regimen is severe, but it makes
soldiers-accompl and polished
soldiers. The young men are required
to work. more than fourteen hours a
day The discipline is infiexible. The
IESullS are EiiltiOol INV al ictbAy
With extremely few exceptions the roll
of graduates of West Point has been a
roll of honor. The exceptions have
served to show, by their limited num-
Der, the high standard of the academy
and its great moral influence.
In connection with the centennial eX
ercises it is gratifying to recall that
Congress has recently authorized the
expenditure of about $5,O0O.O OO for the
erection of new buildings at West
Point and for the acaderny's future
support This expenditure of public
money will have the approval of the
people. AS we grow to be a greater
nation, we need a greater West Point
in which to train our national de-
tenders.

Here's a whole chapter in this book
about the customs at a coronation"
said Mr.. Meddergrass, adjusting his
spectacles, and preparing to read aloud,
according to the Baltimore American.
What does it say?" asked Mrs. Med
dergrass, as he very well knew she
would.
The customs attendant upon
erownin' the king, read Mr.. Medder-
grass, g are barbarOus in the extreme.
an seem most heathenish to a civilized
taste. For a week before the king is
crowned he is in the care of the older
men of his realm. who instruct him in
the mysteries of incarnation and the
foretelling of events. ="
We'll, for the land sakes!" exclaimed
Mrs. Meddergrass. Il wouldn't think
civilized people would have anything to
do with such things in this day an
age
" ON the morning when he is to be
crowned Mr.. Meddergrass read on,
the king is taken into the palace,
and is seated with his council where
he witnesses the strange dances of the
vcodoo doctors, which are supposed to
bring good luck to his reign "
Mercy on us?" Interrupted Mrs Med
dergrass.
g" Then, Mr.. Meddergrass re-
sumed, " he is painted all over with a
bright red pigment, which is permitted
to dry, and is then ornamented with
vari-colored stripes and dots and de-
signs emblematical of the many idols
he is supposed to worship 3"
"Of all things!" cried Mrs. Medder-
grass. Just to think
" He is then continued Mr. Med
dergrass attired in a costume of
dried snakeskins and parrot feathers
and led to the throne room, where his
council greets him with a wild chant
On his entrance, the chief executor
sacrifices the victim, usually boy of
fifteen years "
"Lemuel Meddergrass, what book
are you readin' from anyway"

grass, this is that book on Manners

A cautious American travelling from
Paris to Nice found a stranger in the
compartment in which he had secured
a berth says the Youths Companion.
Are you Mr." said the stranger
The American in surprise answered
affirmatively.
'Ha" said the stranger. Il inquired
at the booking office who was to be
my travelling companion"
The American realized that this was
no ordinary man, and soon found him
self almost hypnotized by the strang-
er's commanding eye.
When the man proposed cards, the
American suspected that he was a pro-
fessional gambler He made many ex-
cuses, finally saying that he cared for
none of the games which his companion
suggested.
"All right" was the discomforting
reply; well play anything you like -
When the American mentioned an
obscure French game, which he hoped
the other would not know, and found
his suggestion taken up eagerly, he
was more than ever suspicious.
But" asked the American, do you
know how to play it?"
No was the reply, but you can
teach me-"
Inc american now had little doubt
that the man was a card expert. look
ing for a victim, but as no suggestion
of high stakes was made he concluded
to venture, and after some hours play
ing had seen nothing on the part of his
fellow passenger that looked like cheat
ing.
But when next morning his compan-
ion suggested that they play again
to while away the time the American
grew suspicious again, and pleaded
headache.
When they entered the station at
Nice the man handed the American his
card. 1t bore the name of Lord Rus
sell. of Killowen, Lord Chief Justice
of England.
