Transformation.
AS underneath Il summer sun
The very paddles in the street
Take on IL glory not their own
And shine Respondent at our feet,
Exchanging ;huS their muddy hue
For coIuTS borrowed from the sky.
While in thcir seeming depths OF blue
The fieecy cloud heaps mirrored lie,
So human hearts, debased and vile
And destitute of native grace.
Grow beautiful beneath the smile
OF loves irradiating face
And prove that men ne'er sink so low
But they despite their lowliness.
May in their lives responsive show
The image OF heavens holiness.

Thus Professor Thomas incIines to see the
guiding Hand through all the tribulations of
Schiller's life. Even the faults which n is can
did enough to recognizc-the turcidity of the
earlier dramas. the stiffness and lyrical heayi-
ness OF the poems the lack of scientific pre-
cison in the historical works-are shown to
have educational value. Any discontinued
genius eating his heart out at the thought of
being neglected might extract comfort from the
story of Scher's brief career. 1t is largely
story of privaton. of loneliness. of poverty. of
sickness. and yet of accomplishment. The mer"

Still another brief extract may be made to
show how Professor Thomas. in depicting

Senator HawIey's Bill to Increase Eff

senator F1aWleyS Dill 10 iHCTSdSS Gi-
ficiency of the Army.
Washington, April Ex-senator
Hawley, chairman of the senate COM
mittee on military affairs, has intro
duced a bill to increase the efficiency
of the army" The most important Sec
ton of the bill is the following:
Subject to the command of the
president and general direction of the
secretary of war the lieutenant gen.
eral shall exercise general command
over the military forces of the United
States; shall issue army orders and
direct inspections of the troops. He
shall be charged with the instruction,
training, discipline and distribution OF
the army; with the preparation and
maintenance of detailed plans for the
mobilization of the military forces; for
the preparation and maintenance OF
stores and of offensive operations and
with collecting and compiling military
information. 1t will be his duty to see
that the army is at all times suitably
and amply supplied and equipped; that
the munitions of war are OF the best
material and of suitable character. He
will recommend suitable persons for
promotions and for military honors
and rewards. He will be assisted in
his duties and his orders will be con-
veyed and executed through the
agency of the general officers holding
commands and the general staff of the
army"
The above provision is intended to
give the commanding general a legal
status which at present he has not and
is understood to be in the interest OF
General Miles.

House Considers Senate Amendments
to the Measure.
Washington, April 23.-After some
routine business the house went into
committee of the whole and took up
the consideration of the senate amend
ments to the omnibus, claims bill.
AS passed by the house the bill car
ried about 100000 for the payment OF
claims To this the senate attached all
the findings of the court of claims I'M
der the Bowman and Tucker acts for
captured and abandoned property,
French spoiliation claims aggregating
about 100000 and many miscellaneous
claims aggregating in all over $2,SOO,-
900. Mr.. Mahon (Pa), chairman OF
the committee on war claims. desired
to non-concur in all the senate amend
ments and send the bill to conference
but there was objection to this course
on the Democratic side.
Mr.. Underwood (Ala.) moved to
strike out that portion OF the senate
amendment covering the findings OF
the Selfridge board, $1,1O7 ,425;
churches and schools, $62,974; state
! claims, $422,271, and miscellaneous
claims, $177,26O. The Selfridge board
claims, he said, grew out of the con-
struction of vessels during the Civil
I war and had been rejected by congress
| in 1867, when they were fairly consid-
| cred. Since then, he said, these
claims had passed in most cases into
| the hands of others. They had been
