HIGH PLAT iN 1UsJRId.

There has been some high play in
 Austria so high that there has been a
 great stir, and the Emperor of Austria
 has decided to make gambling unfash-
 ionable in his dominions. Recently an
 Austrian nobleman lost nearly one mil
 lion dollars at Vienna club. Emperor
 Francis Joseph ordered thorough in
 vestigation, and the result is the ban
 ishment from Austria of number of
 noble high flyers" A half dozen counts and barons and several sports men and army officers have been order
 ed to leave the empire for the empires good. By such vigorous punishment the Emperor expects to make gambling unpopular in Austria Hungary.
 One of the persons sentenced to ban ishment is a member of the Hungarian Parliament His counsel maintained that as he is statesman he could not be ordered out of the empire, the infer ence being that a little card-playing now and then is the inalienable privi lege of lawmaker. The Austrian judges did not take this lenient view of the gambling performances of the Hun garian statesman. They have decided that he must join his sporting friends of the army and of the nobility in exile. His fate will stir the sympathy of statesmen in other countries where is not looked on as it is just now looked on by the Emperor of Aus tria. Statesmen in the United States have done not little gambling in times past, and if any of them are now doing any they will feel for the banished Hun garian statesman.

NOT WOND z RFUL.

According to report made by the
 United States consul at Bremen it is not wonderful that the Germans don't
 like the trade situation. We have been
 selling the Germans, in value, for two
 or three years past, about twice as
 much of our products as Germany has
 sent for sale to the United States, In
 the year 1901 the importation of Amer-
 can goods into Germany increased about per cent, when compared with
 the previous year, while, on the other
 hand. there was a decline of not less
 than IS per cent in German exports to
 the United States. Our chief gain in
 the way of exports was the shipment
 to Germany of nearly 1,250,000 tons of wheat. This, as our consul points out,
 was two or three times greater than our usual wheat shipments. On the other hand, while we have ordinarily in late years found market in Ger many for about 1,000000 tons of our corn, the shipments of last year. when compared with previous years showed a falling off of two-thirds, this decline being brought about by the failure in this country of last years corn crop. The sale of American meats and bacon in Germany was somewhat larger last year than in previous years, but the sale of canned meats and sausages has come to complete ending, owing to the enactment of laws which in effect pro- hbit their incoming. The German losses of trade were chiefly found in de- creased shipments of raw beet sugar. Of this they sent to this country in the year 1901 only about a third as much as they had sent during the pre- Vious year, and next to sugar the greatest decline was found in the ship German cement. There was also a de- cline in German shipments of textiles, leather goods, etc, amounting in value to about s5,0OO,OOO
 Of course the Germans are all wrong in not being willing that we should have all the trade there is, but this is still somewhat selfish world.

Professor Gladwin Smith doesn't
 think much of Cecil Rhodes plan to ed ueate American young men at Oxford. He thus talks to the Philadelphia Press The direct effect, however, of MT. Rhodes legacies will be to estranee more or less a number of promisine. American youths from their country. My opinion has been sometimes asked as to the expediency of sending young Americans or Canadians to be educated in England. I have always given it in the negative, holding it to be best for a youth to be brought up and to have his ideas and sympathies formed in the so- cial and political elements in which his life is to be spent. My opinion would be the same even if 1 believed that the education now given at Oxford or Cam bridge were superior to that which is given at first class American univer- sity. But this I do not believe. I be- lieve that the first class American uni versailles, though differing somewhat in their system and curriculum from OK ford and Cambridge, give, practically, as good an education, as well as one more suited to American requirements, l hardly see what good is to be done

The American Hebrew notes that the Reformed Jews of this country are gradually coming to the conviction that Sunday services in the synagogue are mistake. "The reaction,' says the Jew ish contemporary, shows itself in the futilty of the Sunday service and In the elaboration of the Friday evening service, which can certainly be made thousandfold more impressive than any Sunday service.

James Primock, the English explorer and traveller who is visiting Honolulu says: When one remembers that it is only some three years since the country was taken over by the United States, the great strides that have been made in so short time are simply marvel ous. The number of banks, merchants offices, public schools and colleges give me, as an Englishman, most exalted idea of what Americans can do when they mean it and put their minds, money and hands to it with a will I hear of one large mercantile firm here which only opened it's new offices and warehouses a few days since, the build ings of which cost well on to $1, 900 900, and which buildings are as elegantly and extravagantly finished as the best banking house in London"

The late residence of MT. George w. Childs, in Philadelphia, has just been sold for $110,o00. It is said to have cost Mr Childs s40O,O00. Tn the interval the population of the city has doubled. Its realty valuation has more than doubled, and the selling price of real estate in the residence district, on whose edge this residence stands, has increased far more rapidly than it's assessed value. But nobody wanted the fine house enough to pay more than s110,000 for 1t.

VIOLIN
COMPOSITION
Written and Played by Miss
Johanna E. Kratz.

Miss Johanna r. Kratz, of this city,
whose reputation as a violin soloist is
not alone confined to Akron, has COM
posed very pretty violin and piano
piece, entitled "Alorceau de Concert" "
Those who have heard it have been
profuse in their praises of the melody
and technique and predict great sue
cess for the piece. Miss Kratz will
probably introduce the composition be-
fore local audience.
Just now, while great deal is be-
ing said about violinists, it might not
be out of place to state that Miss
Kratz is an artist of such rare ability
that the city should feel proud of her.
Her education in music has been
thorough and instructors carefully Sc.
lected. After studying with the best
violinists in this country she went to
Belgium, and took a full course of les.
sons under Caesar Thomson, of Brus-
sells, whose reputation is well known
Few people can produce from violin
fuller smoother or sweeter tones than
Miss Kratz, and her new composition
gives abundant opportunities for dis
playing these qualities.

HOT LEMONADE
Used by Many People In Treat
ing Colds.

There are two seasons of the year
when we sell lots of lemons" said a
local fruit dealer, Saturday. zone of
those seasons Is in very hot weather
and the other brisk season is when
the wea ther Is extremely cold, Strange
as it may seem, we sell nearly as many
lemons when the weather is very cold
as during the summer.
The reason for the large business
done during the winter, is the faith
people have in lemonade for curing
colds. About the time when grip is pre-
valent there is sudden boom in the
business. and the heroic treatment of
sweating out colds is practiced very
generally"

EGGS CHEAPER.
Price Is Gradually Dropping to
Usual Place.

The price of egges continues on the
downward course and they are now
selling at % cents with the prospect
of a further decrease. Notwithstand-
ing this, however, eggs are not as
cheap as they generally are at this
season and ,Ae usual Easter price is
l21a cents. While it is still early to
make predictions of the Easter price
of eggs they will probably be much
higher than that.
An unusually large number of hens
and young chickens have been sold
this year, the scarcity and high price
of feed having tendency to induce
people to sell their chickens rather
than buy feed for them.

tation of military supplies" by her as
against her enemy in the field. And
shall it be said that horses going direct
from the place of debarkation to the
squadrons in the field are not mil
itary supplies?" They are so, both by
Woolsey's definition and our own
many treaty stipulations. They are
so. even Kitchener and the British
War Office being witnesses. For in
November last the Secretary at War
wired Kitchener, eve cannot continue
indefinitely to send from 10000 to
10000 mounts n month to be used up
by column commanders in few days"
And Kitchener replied that he must
have them If he was expected to keep
the field and make head against the
enemy. And he has kept on having
them, until, as the blue book says,
he now Is using up 10000 a month.
And they are notoriously coming to
him from ports of the United States,
professedly neutral power. Secre-
tary at War Brodrick, in his dispatch,
does not claim that the horses are to
be used for blowing; he plainly says
they are to be used as mounts by the
column commanders"
The other day 1t was given as a rea-
son for comforting a high honor on
a foreign prince by an American Uni
versity, that his and our ancestors
were Protestants. Without stopping
to discuss the truth OF the soundness
of this proposition, let us ask, If the
American people do not owe some
thing TO the people Of the TTansvaal
and the Orange Free State upon the
same score? 1t is sarcasm upon
history to add that the only sympathy
or prayers which these oppressed and
| dying people seem 10 ne getting Ifom
among our churches, come from one
which is not Protestant.
The moral guilt of tolerating and
even protecting the abuse Of our ports
in the shipments referred to is a heavy
| load on some one. 1t carries with it
the blood of the innocents, ruthlessly
spilled that Joseph Chamberlain may
be notorious and England great. In
QUESTION for it is sure to be made,
somewhere, at some time and by some
one. He who bears it may escape
paying taxes in Washington, but
Rhadamanthus and his brethren will
have something to say about the de-
linquent later on.
