EMPEROR WILLIAMS LATEST
Says "lt Is Only Americans That Meet
My Wants"

Berlin, June 11.-"It is only Ameri-
cans that meet my wants" is one Of
the latest utterances of Emperor Will
liam circulating in army and govern
ment circles. The emperor spoke these
words recently, according to the Tage-
blatt, while dining with the officers Of
one Of his favorite Silesian regiments,
and the thought pleased the emperor
so much that he has frequently re-
peated 1t in other forms since then.

Prussian finance minister. Baron Won

Cabanis tells us that Franklin on
several occasions mentioned TO him
that he had been assisted by dreams
in the conduct of affairs in which he
was engaged.
Condnlac states that while writing
his Course OF Studies he was fire.
qucntly obliged to leave a chapter in
complete and retire TO bed, and on
awaking he found It, on more than one
occasion. finished in his head.
The most remarkable testimony of
this kind is perhaps that Of Sir Thomas
Browne. who declared that, if it were
possible, he would prefer TO carry OF
his studies in his dreams, so much
more efficient were his faculties OF
mind when his body was asleep.

The strain of RomInr.

a medical paper discusses the "health
Of the oarsmen' and comes TO no very
definite conclusion as to the effect Of
training and racing on the after life of
the varsity oar. Some years ago the
late Professor Morgan. in his little
work, University Oars" gave the re-
suits of an investigation regarding 255
who were then living out of 294 who
had taken part in the boat races. And
his returns seemed to show that oars
men were rather benefited than in
jured by the discipline and struggle.
1t must be remembered that the pre-
liminary sitting of the torpids. the
eights and the trials weeds out the
weaklings at oxford who could not
stand the strain. And every rowing
man knows that the trained man who
tumbles back in the boat after a hard
fought race is as fit as ever within a
mlnute.-London Chronicle.

Cutting Down Expenses.

From the Hartford Courant
We have more than once during the

When railroads are ordering new cars

creating a mighty volume Of business
which has no permanent quality. 1t is
of the boot strap kind OF jump. A GER
tain railroad in this State had all its
prosperity before it was completed, and
wondering public found afterward
that the reason was that it charged it.

other material from the terminus to

to carry itself. it's business was pracu-

The Street and Sewer Commission
has decided TO construct the Prices Run
sewer itself, the bids called for being
regarded as too high. We think it is
safe to say that it will never be COM
pleted for the 100000 available The
respective bidders have had their en-
gineers make careful estimates, and
since under competition they have es-
timated that the work will cost a much
larger sum, we are inclined to agree
with them. For our departments to un-
dertake such important work without
the safeguards that are offered when
we give out contracts to responsible
bidders, is to establish dangerous
precedent

ways. The body, Of course, is affected
BY our mental states. but it is equally
important to note that certain physical
states or activities affect the mind. A
slouching gait, dropping shoulders and
shuhling feet rarely go with accurate
and forceful thinking or virile action.
A boy who has learned the bearing of a
gentleman under all circumstances will
find it difficult to be boor under any
circumstances. It is fo~ this reason that
one who learns to obey orders as a
subaltern is also most forceful in com-
mand. 1t is because his eye is fixed on
discipline, and It is immaterial to him
what relation he or others hold to It.
There is place for the military
school, not so much because 1t teaches
the art of warfare, as because il brings
the young into proper relations with
the laws Of men and the laws
Of God, teaching them to obey
without kicking against the pricks.
Reports from the peach belt Indicate
that the fruit growers are now worry
ing over the June drop, and a proper es-
innate OF the crop cannot be made TIL
this stage is past. But the June drop
is the way nature has Of relieving the
trees Of their surplus burden. Usually
more fruit is set than can mature, and
this thinning out process is necessary
in order to insure the proper maturing
OF what remains. At times, however,
almost all the young fruit falls. but this
is pretty certain sign that the trees
are diseased or otherwise incapable of
bearing their burden. The June drop
is not TO be feared.

Immediately after war was declared

to be attached Il long stout chain. so
that when the two barrels Were fired

would NOW down men by companies.
The cannon was cast. When it was

over and under the pine sapliE.s. rocks
and mud. tearing up small trees and

the cannon which held the other ball
