question the worth-whileness of the game
nor to doubt our own strength; we have
simply to go in and play till the game, IN
turn, has used us up.
This frank fatalism is everywhere in
Mr.. kipling verse, and Mr.. kipling is IN
some sort the prophet or an age. IL so
penetrates his work that, when he pictures
the american spirit as always ready 10
match with Destiny for beers" it is doubt
full whether he intends praise or blame
The ideal of which we are speaking is 10
many men religion. 1t means to them
what faith in a higher power has meant
to Christians through the centuries, or
what confidence in right reason meant TO
the philosophers of the eighteenth century
and to their successors. Clearly this neo-
fatalism lacks both the consolatory power
of personal dependence upon God and the
freedom of reliance upon the human rea-
son, being, indeed, the avowed enemy OF
ratiOnaliSm and ratiocinauon. Those cool
headed people who question everything,
including the rules of the game. who would
even suspend the game for the sake OF
imagined reforms, are naturally hateful 10
the imprisoned player. 1t is probable. W.
believe. that this new doctrine is an un-
conscious reaction against the ratiOnalism
of two centuries past, an expression of dis
gust at the small contribution that phiiOsO-
ply and science have, after al, made 10
the art Of living.
The eighteenth century never doubted
that the individual reason was or could
become an adequate guide of life. II Is
far from this dogma 10 that which would
have every man subject himself bIindy To
but the transition is a natural one. for the
individual intellect has not yet proved
itself an adequate guide for men in society.
This form of stoicism has undoubtedly beer
fostered by the spread Of scientific ideals.
The impossibility OF handling questions OF
feeling and conduct by fthe experimental
organon has led among scientists to very
general disregard, and even contempt, of
ethical and moral studies. The mass dmly
feels this contempt. 1t sees at any rate
that the science which establishes prin-
ciples of life and death. of industry and
convenience, is very powerless to touch the
vital problems Of daily living.
Naturally. then, in default of aid from
science. and falling generally Of any practi-
cal counsel from religion, the average man
has fallen back upon his own rude phi
losOphy, that of playing the game One
may feel that il would be better TO await
more patiently for the general growth OF
right thinking. that IL is unwise 70 assume
prematurely the bankruptcy of both science
and religion, but one cannot deny a certain
admiration 10 the rule OF thumb which So
ciety has worked out for itself meanwhile.
1t was Pascal in a singuarly audacious
passage OF the "Pensees.' who advised his
reader TO bet on God and immortality. 1t is
no mean world spirit that has counseled
this age TO lay it's money on the virtues Of
loyalty and imperturbability.

ON PLAYING THE GAME.
A Phrase Indicative of a Modern Rule
of Conduct.

New York Evening Post.
If "a modern catechist were to ask in
mixed company, What is the chief end of
man?" somebody would infallibly reply,
ITO play the game" The phrase is the
commonest of social catchwords. The
scholars. diplomats and litterateurs i'm Mrs.
Wards Eleanor" all of them delight in
1.-The game" Mr.. Crosland, the author
of 1.-THE Unspeakable Scot" holds it up
against Mr. Balfour that he openly speaks
of party leadership as 1.-The game" The
present King Of England. it is reported,
when a friend had reminded him of un-
edifying passages in his princely career,
said only Il will play the game rightly"
Now if this a winged word of the
more senseless sort il would concern us
little. But in all the examples cited the
metaphor is used of mems dearest con-
Germs and il is evident that the injunction
Play the game is the equivalent in our
parlance of the Biblical Quit yourselves
like men" the churchs doing ones
duty in the lot to which the Lord has called
one" The phrase represents for most of
US the whole duty of man. 1t is not by
chance that the Englshman and Amer
lean of to-day crystalline their ethics in
a phrase borrowed from the cardroom and
the athletic field; it is in obedience to a
very characteristic and interesting mode
of thinking. which exalts what we may call
the sporting. at the expense of the ra-
tonal, virtues.
Those who aspire TO play the game by
that very fact profess the two great sport
ing virtues OF loyalty and imperturbabil
tty. They find the game with its many
elaborate rules and presidents. These they
set themselves TO learn diligently and then
obey overwhelmingly. a state in which
men play the game will undoubtedly be
free from sedition. and probably free from
reform. Furthermore those who are ready
TO play the game must be ready also 10
accept its event with complete imperturba-
biity. EKultation at success and depres
sion over loss are alike forbidden. The
superior strength. skill or luck of an ad-
versary must find the loser mistaken in
temper and spirit. SO far as IL goes the
determination TO play the game is a brave
rule of life, since with intolerance of all

may bring IL would surely be a better

BUCKNER AND GRANT.
Experience of the Kentuckian with
the Great General.
New orleans Times Democrat.

New orleans Tlmes-Democrat.
General Buckner once told a crowd of
newspaper men rather good story of the
four meetings he had with General Grant"
said an old newspaper man. land on the
occasion / have in mind Henry Watterson,
Murat Halstead and a few other distin-
guished journalistic lights were In the par
~. When we arrived at our destination
General Buckner lapsed into a reminiscent
mood. One member Of the party had said
something about General Grant This gave
the Kentuckian the cue and he told OF
what he called his four meetings with
Grant. one meeting was at school. This
was unimportant. The second meeting was
at hotel, and much OF the sentiment Of
the story rests upon this meeting. Buck
ner and Grant were stopping at the same
place. Grant was In hard lines financially.
The fact is he could not pay his hotel bin
at that time The innkeeper was holding
on 10 his baggage as security. He told
Buckner about Ii. Buckner was in better
condition. He went to the hotel man and
told him that Mr.. Grant was his guest is
your present room satisfactory, Mr.. Grant?
he asked. and he told that II was
Buckner told him IL II was not ne would
nave him moved 10 a more satisfactory
place Grant left the hotel without seeing
Buckner again. When Buckner went 10
pay his bill he asked about Mr.. Grant and
was told that he had left. He asked about
the bill of his guest and was told that II
had been paid. The third meeting was at
DOnelson in the sixties. Somehow General
Buckner-he was a general then and so was
Grant-felt that the man he had befriended
at the hotel had forgotten the earlier kind
ness more because he did not speak OF IL
than for any other reason. During all the
balance or his life General Grant never said
one single word 10 General Buckner by
word OF mouth or in writing about the hotel
incident. and the kentuckian had come 10
look upon IL as a bit OF glazing ngrstitude
and a thing without apparent excuse in a
man who had displayed so many admirable
traits. He held 10 this opinion until the
fourth meeting. He called TO the cot

often spoken OF General Buckner's kindness
