CAPTURING

Concerning the proposal of the Gee

a fortnighuy service. carrying mails
between sydney and san Francisco i'm
eighteen days the Otago Witness says:
The United States government is be
coming increasingly alive To the grow
ing commercial Importance Of the ISL
ands of the Pacific and the mail SER
vice proposals Of the oceanic Steam
ship Company are evidently part of "A
carefully prepared program with the
end In view OF capturing the Pacific
island trade The idea of "A fortnightly
service, carrying malls from sydney TO
San Francisco in eighteen days. Is no
doubt alluring. especially i'm these days
when 50 much is sacrificed for speed :
but there are other considerations OF
greater importance. IL is "A bad policy
for any one part OF the empire TO con-
sent To subsidize "A foreign fleet, and
thus add to the disadvantage under
which Great Britain's merchantmen
already have TO compete with the ships
iof other nations. Did Australia need
"A potent argument against entertaining
the American proposals she would find

Australian steamship service Is becom-
ing more and more Improbable. large
'ly owing to the heavily subsidized
French and German liners, which ply
along her coasts and keep frclghts and
fares down to the lowest payable point.
The encouragement of the Oceanic
Steamship Company proposals would
certainly mean the Introduction of an
other clement OF the same disturbing
kind.

Roswell Field, in Chicago Post.

General joy prevails throughout that large
tract of country controlled by the influence
of the Indiana school of literary expression.
For has not Tolstoy, himself a master of
literary FORM sent to Indiana for a biog-
rapher worthy of the subject? We know
this is true, for the intelligence came this
morning direct from Richmond, a center of
culture in commonwealth of cultured
centers. DR.. Edward Steiner is the biog-
rapher chosen, and he will soon depart for
Russia to take up his agreeable and immor-
talizing task. Hitherto Indiana has led the
world in poetry and fiction, but 1t now
seems possible that no department of liter
airy composition will be permitted to escape
its supreme command. Chicago feels a spe-
cial joy in these recurring trfumphs, for 1t is
Indebted for much of its own literary SUI
premacy to the Indiana leaven which comes
very near composing the entire lump. DIR.
Steiner is to be congratulated on his ap-
1t is significant that while there are doubt
less score or more of writer's in the State
intellectually equipped for such duties, DIR.
Steiner comes from the eastern section of
Indiana, and remote from the valley of the
historic Wabash, where, as Mr.. Harrington
and Mr.. McCutcheon have pointed out. a
purse-proud and naughty aristocracy lin
gers. wholly out of harmony with the So
cialistic theories of the great Russian. Such
men as Wallace, Harrington, McCutcheon
and Major, brilliant though they are, would
be incapacitated by every, environment and
association from a perfect sympathy with
Tolstoy and his theories. Therefore, in
going to the extreme eastern verge of Indi-
ana for a biographer the Immortality Of
Tolstoy's endeavor has been assured

Working the Newspapers.

The man enterprise that seeks to get
something for nothing and gets it visits
and victimizes the newspaper office more
frequently and more uniformly than any
other place. The New York state fair,
lately held in Syracuse, was unparalleled
by any similar event within the history of
the State, both in the merit of its exposi-
ton, the magnitude of its crowds and the
size OF it's net profits. It's success, as the
managers were frank to admit, came pri-
marily from newspaper advertising. which
had been prepared skillfully, placed where
il would do the most good and paid for
promptly and at card rates. In other words
the New York state fair did precisely as
any other strictly business enterprise would
do and is required to do, reaping the inev
liable reward What our own state fair
managers thus did and intend to do regu-
larly in future years for the advantage and
money profit of their state enterprise other
managers of other fairs or expositions of
national scope should do likewise, in the
reasonable assurance that like favorable
results will follow Whether they do or not

ODD GAME OF BASEBALL.
Shackled Pisoners, in Pairs, Fill Their
Positions Creditably.

Philadelphia Press
Perhaps the most remarkable game of
baseball on record took place at the navy
yard a few days ago, when two teams of
shackled prisoners played five innings, one
team winning by the score of to 8.
The players were handcuffed in pairs, and
instead of one man pitching catching
there were two for each position on the
diamond.
The number of prisoners now in the
brig on board of the receiving ship Min
neapolis, awaiting sentence for various
misdemeanors, principally desertion, is I'M
usually large, and every day they are taken
from their narrow quarters and exercised
for couple of hours. There were sixty
two lined up and marched in pairs to the
athletic field. where two teams were or
ganized, and the game began.
In every detail was the usual game fol-
lowed, only when the pair of batters hit
the ball both started to run for first base.
Sometimes one in the couple ran faster than
the other, and there were numerous falls
when one man, forgetting his condition,
would attempt to slide without communi-
eating his intention TO his manacled part
ner The position of shortstop one team
was particularly we'll filled by pair or
young colorcd men, who, by working mar
moniously with four legs and four arms,
covered considerable territory The fielders,
when not making one-hand catches, put up
their manacled hands, the right of one
player and the left of another, while the
man with the free right arm generally did
the throwing.
There were no long hits, but some re-
markable catches were made, and errors
were numerous, although the playing i'm
proved as the men became used to those
they were fastened to. One lively young
landsman, weighing l25 pounds. declared
a man nearly twice his age and weight to
travel with, while the efforts OF a tall man
and a short man TO act in unison were very
humorous.
By the time five innings were played the

In Harper's for Christmas Algernon
Charles Swinburne, the poet, writing of
Shakspeare's tragedy of Lear, places it
above all the other plays, and fiercely at
tacks the critics who deny its right TO this
position:
If nothing were left of Shakespeare put
the single tragedy of King Lear" says
Mr.. Swinburne, cit would still be as plain
as ii is now that he was the greatest man
that ever lived. AS poet the author of
this play can only be compared with
Aeschylus. The Hebrew prophets and the
creator of Job are sometimes as sublime in
imagination and in passion. but always
quite incomparably inferior in imaginative
intelligence.
THAT Shakspeare's judgment was as
great and almost as wonderful as his
genius has been commonplace of criticism
ever since the days of Coleridge; question

lures of sirian intellect and facetious
idiocy as mistake IL for a sign of wit in
stead of dullness. and of distinction instead

the stone was unparalleled, and the news
of this discovery was soon wired over the
world. Spectators in many countries felt
the throb of a new sensation, and the share
markets became mercurial with excited
buyers and sellers; rings were formed, and
no small amount of suspected jobbery prac-
ticed; shares rose to enormous prices, then
fell far below their value, and thus many
were ruined: there were lawsuits over ad

transactions occurred; fortunes were made
and lost and regained: but amid all these
variations OF speculation and fortune the

two million and quarter ounces of gold
have been obtained: and the latest reports
