IT INJURIES THE SOUTH.

There will be nobody to defend or eX-
upon Mr.. Beveridge in the Senate
Chamber The language used by the
Indiana Senator was not insulting or of
fensive, and he particularly disclaimed
any intention to offer insult. Mr.. Bailey
ought to have accepted Mr.. Beveridge's
disclaimer. His physical attack is not
justified from any standpoint, and is
far more indefensible than Senator Till
mans breach of the rules.
Most of all does the South
deplore the loss of temper by
it's Senators, for it conveys a
wrong impression of the South, and
damages the party to which they belong.
To Southern Senators, pugiistically in
clined, these words from Carlyle's 'The
Hero as a Man of Letters" ought to be
commended:
"A fundamental mistake is to call
vehemence and rigidity strength
man is not strong who takes conVul-
sion fits: though six men cannot hold
him then. He that can walk under the
heaviest weight without staggering, he
is the strong man. We need forever, es.
pecially in these loud-shrieking days, to
remind ourselves that the man who
cannot hold his peace, till the time come
for speaking and acting, is no right
man.

TOBACCO RULED OUT,

Years ago the Maine Methodist Confer
ence and perhaps others declared against
the use of tobacco, and for some time
there was a discussion on the query:
"Can a man who uses tobacco be a
Christian Sam Jones, with his original
ity and quaintness answered it by saying
yes, but he will be very nasty one."
At the Shelby District Conference
(Methodist) last week, in session at STAN
~ Creek, resolutions were adopted and
signed by the preachers not to use to-
bacco in any form, to discourage it's
use, and it was stated as the sense of the
conference that 10 applicants for license
TO preach be received unless they sol
EMMY promise to quit it and that for

A DEcLINATION THAT STICKS

There are destinations that do not de-
cline. When mentioned for public office,
most men who decline, do so leave a
string to their jdeclination. The best de-
clination we ever saw-a copper plated
declination-is that of Mr.. George l..
Lilly, of Connecticut. He was urged to
run for Governor. Here is the way he
put it away from him:
II am not a candidate for the nomi-
nation wouldn't raise a finger to get it;
don't want it; won't have it, and hope
there won't be any more talk of it. |

GETS HIS REWARD.

News comes from WASHINGTON that d.
K. Pope, the campaign fund collector, is
to be rewarded for collecting Doodle. 1t
will be remembered that he is the same
man who had the row with the postmas-
ter at Madison, who held him up and
compelled him to return the money.
Mr.. Pope's reward is in the shape OF
job for which he has no fitness. He is a
lawyer by profession and a politician by
practice, and yet he has been appointed
Agricultural Statistician for North Caro-
ina, Prof. Withers having been re-
moved to make place for the Doodle col
lector. Mr.. Withers had the necessary
qualifications and confined his work to
collecting crop statistics. Mr.. Pope can
collect statistics and assess postmasters
at the same time. That's why he gets
the job.
This is a fair sample of the way Mr..
Roosevelt practices civil service reform.

OPTIMISTIC VIEW OF LIFE TAKEN

Excerpts from ''The Empir OF Bust
ness'-YOung Men of Exceptional
Ability Always i'm Demand.

Andrew Carnegie's new book, THE En-
pire of Business" which recently was re-
viewed in the Journal. is attracting much
attention. 1t deals with thrift, the road 10
fortune, the uses Of wealth and other top
les. Mr.. Carnegie does not attempt to tell
how to amass a huge fortune, such as he
has, but he gives good advice to young men
by telling of his own success. and how
they may succeed as he has. Three things
in particular he warns the youth against,
and first and foremost comes drink.
you are more likely to fall in your ca
reer from acquiring the habit of drinking
than from any or all the other tempta-
tons likely TO assail you.' he says. 1T
may lead to almost any other temptation
and reform, but from the insane thirst for
liquor escape is almost impossible"
The second danger, he says, is specula-
ton. "Gamesters die poor, and there is GER
tainly not an instance of a Spectator who
has lived a life creditable TO himself or ad-
vantageous 10 the community"
The third danger he warns young men
against is the 'perilous habit of indorsing,
all the more dangerous. inasmuch as ii as
sails one generally in the garb of friend
ship"

structure TO afford any obstacle to its I'M
interrupted passage; and thus no conclu-
sion regarding the globule theory could
have been reached. In the later stages of
Capitalization, however. the use of polar
lied light was most effective.
Professor Richards questions whether it
is possible to obtain more positive knowl-
edge than is afforded by his experiments
until some radical Improvement in the nee
essary apparatus has been devised. He Is
inclined to think, however, that the blurred
appearance caused by the rapid expansion
Of the crystals in their earlier stages of de-
velopment may have been mistaken by for
mer Investigators for the momentary ap-
pearance of a globule of liquid. Even in his
own acknowledgements" a slight resem-
blance may be noted. and in one or two
cases deliberate study, such as was. of
course. impossible before the camera was
brought into the investigation. is necessary
to detect evidence of structure in these first
appearances of the budding crystal.
This special application of microscopic
photography to scientific research, such as
Professor Richards has here made, is, how
ever, as he points out, capable Of almost
unlimited extension. 1t is already being
used for the study Of the changes in the
structure of steel at high temperatures. and
similar apparatus might easily be employed,
he suggests. to obtain a series of kineto-
scopic pictures of insects or other micro
scopic animals or plants. Besides seeing
more. the camera sees more exactly. and it's
record is more permanent and less open to
dispute. In astronomy, for example. it has
proved 20 be the most valuable auxiliary
which has been introduced for a century,
just as it now bids fair to be one of the
most important allies of the chemist.

est light. Moreover there must be no vibra-
ton OF the camera or Of the object OF
study, which required that the machinery
for changing the plates should be prac-
tically frictiOnless and adjusted with the
greatest nicely.
Two different methods were used to over
come the difficulty OF securing a sufficiently
high degree of Illumination. BY the first a
series Of bright images was produced in a
dark field: by the second dark images were
registered in a succession Of bright fields.
in the first method II was simpler to move
the crystalllzing solution than the photo

that part of the plate on which the crystal
was pictured was affected by exposure and
a very slight movement Of the object

superimpOsing one image over another.
To accomplish this the slide bearing the

ingenious device which drew it to one side

EXPERIMENTS WITH LIGHT.
Many attempts were made with different
kinds Of light before Professor Richards OBJ
tanned the results he sought. No combina-
ton Of -incandescent electric lights could be
made strong enough. so that in the end
sunlight, directed by mirrors and condensed
by refiectors and lenses. was found most
satisfactory. Some very interesting expert
ments were made with polarized light in
taking bright images on a dark field. Sun
light was intercepted by crossed prisms of
Iceland spar so that only so much Of it as
had been detected by the crystalline struc-
tUre was allowed to emerge. The objection
to this method was that II the prenatal
condition of the crystals were globular the

DRAMATIC SUDDENNESS OF KINGS
ILLNESS.

London. June 24-With dram
tie suddenness the King has been
stricken down upon the eve Of his
coronation. Tonight he lies in a
critical state at Buckingham Pal
ace.
In spite of the intensity of this
tragic interruption. the lower elc-
ment Of London are "Matflcklng
through the flag -decked streets, n
portion of society In coronation
gowns and Jewels had gathered at
what is called gala coronation
dinner at one of the fashionable
hotels. Even at the gates Of Buck
ingham Palace, within which the
ablest surgeons and physicians
constantly remain in the hope of
saving the sovcreign's life, the
footing of horns and the sound OF
old revelries can be plainly heard.
That slim gathering which still re
mains beneath the haring palace
lights is now more bent ON celc-
brating than sypathizing. Wagon
loads of boisterous rowdics are on
the streets. They represent that
section of the British public which
no tragedy can sober into decency,
and, King, or no King they will
celebrate the coronation.
