The Bottle or the Bird.
From the Baltimore News.

FROM the BALTIMORE News
The traditional breaking Of bottle of
wine over the bows of vessel as she
glides from the ways has become such an
established feature of launchings that 1t
would. perhaps, require a long campaign of
education to effect change, but there
has been a decided tendency In recent
years toward the adoption of the Japanese
custom Of releasing snow-white dove as
the fair sponsor chosen for the occasion
gives name to the mighty leviathan Of war
or peace as 1t makes It's first dip into the
water. The average young woman selected
to christen a vessel usually finds the duty
of breaking the proverbial bottle of wine
a rather difficult and awkward one. Real
izing this. the friends of Miss Quay, who
had the honor of christening the Pennsyl-
vania induced her to practice on the trick
in order to acquire the proper force Of
muscle and skill Of aim in breaking the
bottle in the right way at the right time
and in the right place.
1t would-be well worth while to consider
the advisability of making a change, even
IL it tends to the selection of a less difficult
brand of bottle to break rather than the
abandonment Of the bottle altogether. There
is naturally sense Of revulsion at the
idea of christening a battleship by the re-
lease of so gentle and peace provoking
creature as dove. A snow-white bird
standing fer all that Is tender and beauti-
full in the field Of human sentimentality
might be thought by some to be badly out
of place in connection with the launching
of death-dealing vessels designed to add
to the armament of the nation and to
stand as a menace between us and our
foes. Just what the symbolism of the dove
is in Japan we do not know but there Is
something very beautiful and attractive
about the idea of the white-winged crea-
ture sailing away on free wings out of
bondage and captivity just as the mighty
vessel leaps into the arms of the waiting
tide. The idea is pretty enough to be worth
considering. 1t is certainly very essential
that the young ladies who are selected to
stand sponsor for our mighty ships should
not have to go into a course of physical
training before the launching in order to
enable them to throw bottle with suffl-
cient force to break when 1t comes into
contact with 'fold steel

What Makes for Happiness.


We are used to feel-to put it crudely-
that folks who have health and money
ought to be happy. And SO they should.
sufficient income promotes comfort, and
that contributes to cheerfulness Of spirit;
and to have health of course means to feel
well, and that is long step toward feeling
good. But how far do we have to look to
find persons with health to sauander and
more money than they know how to spend
making strenuous efforts to attain happi-
ness and merely achieving impaired health?
II you have health and money you can
usually buy pleasure. but enjoyment Is
different article; and even when you have
got enjoyment happiness may still elude
you. Pleasure pals and sometimes de-
moranze9; enjoyment easily yields to Wearf-
ness. but you don't get tired of being hap
happy still. Or II
Happiness Is a state of satisfaction. One
reason why It Is SO elusive may be because
we human creatures are a complication of
body. mind and spirit, and require for our
complete satisfaction particularly nice
adjustment of blessings and of conduct.
If we indulge the body too much the other
two partners become mutinous: If we over
cultivate the mind the body may break
down. and If we beStow all our attention on
mind and body, the spirit, ignored, takes
a sure vengeance on us for our neglect. It
is so difficult so to measure and direct our
efforts as tos appease all the demands of
our triplica.e natures that the simpler way
Is to regard happiness as by-product,
give over all direct attempts to acquire a
constant supply of 1t and simply accept
however much of 1T may come while we go
about our business with such intelligence
as we can. We can usually keep our bodies
in fair repair if we are not too lazy or too
self-indulgent; If we have to earn our liv-
ings our minds, and bodies, too, find Occu-
patton that is usually wholesome; and the
discipline of work done. as it usually Is,
for others as well for ourselves. helps
to satisfy the exactions of the spirit

AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE.
Lawyers and Courts, Not the Law, to
Blame for Delays.

From the Kansas Clty JOuruoA
A negro who attempted to assault
young white woman in this city was tried,
sentenced and is now on his way to Jeher-
son City to serve his term Of ten years IN
the state penitentiary. all within eight days
after he committed the crime. The offense
the negro perpetrated was heinous and the
evidence Of it was convincing, but no more
SO than many another case in this county
where defendants have either escaped pun
ishment altogether or their trials have been
so long delayed that the results have been
useless as examples to deter the vicious
from following their wicked ways.

Cumberland mine in England. This graphite
was of remarkable purity and could be
used without further treatment by cutting
1t into thin slabs and incasing them In
wood. For two centuries England enjoyed
practically monopoly of the lead pencil
industry In the eighteenth century. how
ever. the lead pencil industry had found
Its way into Germany. In 1761 Caspar
Faber, in the village of Stein. near the
ancient city of Nuremberg. Bavaria. started
in modest way the manufacture of lead
pencils, and Nuremburg became and re-
manned the center of the lead pencil indus
try for more than a century. For five gen.
erations Faber's descendants made lead
pencils. Up to the present day they have
continued to devote their interest and en-
ergy to the development and perfection of
pencil making. Eberhard Faber. great
grandson of Caspar Faber, immigrated to
this country and In 1S49 established himself
in New York city. In 1861. when the war
tariff first went into effect. he erected his
own pencil factory In New York city and
thus introduced the industry into tho
United States.

The numbers were chosen with the view OF
pleasing all, from the votartes of ragtime to
the lover of the classic in music. and the
well-known ability Of the band assures the
complete success of the evening. 50 far as
the musical feature is concerned. At $50

of fireworks. which, it is promised. will
eclipse anything of the kind ever seen at

that visited Cabin John both yesterday and
today, not the slightest incident or acct
dent occurred to mar the enjoyment of its
attractions The service at the club house
tested to its limit yesterday. but was
not found wanting. In the palm garden
an entire new set of moving pictures has
been put on. one scene of which is prob
ably the most realistic moving picture ever
shown in this vicinity. 1t takes the specta-

greatest fidelity all of the wonderful beau

Chevy Chase Lake claims its usual large
share of the pleasure seekers today. Music

looking for quiet time awaited themselves

The annual field day at Washington Grove
was held today. Track events and a game
of base ball between the Rockville and
Washington Grove teams were scheduled
for the day. Many Washington athletes
participated in the contests. There will be
a celebration in the assembly hall this even

The majority of the stores in Washington
were closed today and judging from the va
riety of amusements too numerous to men

every one has been able to find something
to his or her liking. All have been very
thankful for the exceptionally fine weather

BRITISH SCANDALS.
Lord Lansdowne May Be Asked to Re-
sign His Office.

LONDON, September 7.-As an outcome
OF the disclosures made in the report Of
the South African war commission it is
rumored In well-informed quarters here
that the resignation of Lord Lansdowne. the
former war secretary and present foreign
secretary, may be expected shortly. 1t is
added that he will be succeeded as foreign
secretary by Mr.. Brodrick, the present war
secretary, and that Mr.. WYndham. the
Irish secretary, will be made head of the
war Office.
A meeting Of the cabinet will be held
shortly for the purpose Of discussing the
nscal question now before the country, but
1T Is generally believed that the attitude Of
the people with respect to the findings Of
the war commission. as shown by the pro-
posal to send a monster petition to King
Edward for Lord Lansdowne's dismissal,
and by the publication of cartoons Hlustrat-
Ing his tncOmpetency. will be considered,
and that something will be determined upon
as necessary to stem the tide of fndgna-
ton now flowing against the ministry.

excursions and other outing recreation
Thousands had left the city on Saturday
and Sunday on pleasure bent, taking a
two or three day holiday: thousands more

steamers this morning. Several large po-
litical outings were arranged for the day,
and there were many special events on the
athletic program.
The central feature of the celebration in
this city was the parade of union labor.
which took place this morning, representa-

q reform. The intricacies Of the law pre-
ciude it from being a popular subject of
discussion. The remedies will have to be
suggested and effected by the lawyers and
the judges themselves. who. 1t seems, as a
class, by reason of their peculiar training,
are incapable of the work.
The old common law before it was prac-
dcally abolished in this country had be-
come such an involved and elaborate sys-
tenn of technicalitieS that 1t was unendur-
able As a result codes have been adopted
for a substitute in all the states of the
Union, New York setting the example For
time there were hopes that tina means had
at last been discovered whereby the law
would be executed without favor or delay.
But the same geL.ius and talent for miscon-
struction which destroyed the efficiency of
the common law for this purpose has also
operated with vicious and damaging inge-
nuity upon the codes. and the country is
in the same deplorable position today as 1t
was at the beginning of the last century.
