When man has money and no occu-
patton; has been everywhere and seen
everything, and is bored from the time
he gets up till bedtime, he is called
blase. Sometimes he buys a gun and
ends it; or he takes to absinthe, which
is slower way. 1t is impossible to
arouse or enthuse him. Isn't the bulk
of humanity getting touch Of that
feeling? 1t is sort of fat, lazy sensa-
ton, and it isn't good for us. For in
stance: The other day Marconi sent
wireless messages from President
Roosevelt to King Edward, across the
ocean. There was no trouble. 1t was
as easy as calling a messenger boy,
and much more prompt. The pursers
of two ocean vessels, separated by fifty
miles Of heaving waves, played chess
by the aid of the Marconi invention.
The game was most enjoyable and un-
interrupted. 1t was enlivened by wire
less conversation, and the loser COB
graduated the winner. You would
think that this Yankee nation would
build bonfires and sit upon its hind
legs and whoop at such marvellous
feat. 1t did nothing of the kind. 1t
was scarcely interested. One New
York newspaper gave the affair less
than half the space that was accorded
to a woman who had accumulated sew
en- husbands, and as for pictures, the
woman had the best Of it by ratio
Of two columns to nothing. 1t is doubt
full If there has been an invention that
will exceed in Importance the one
made practical by Marconi. 1t is worth
all the enthusiasm that can be aroused
over it, and any honor that this nation
can show to the author of it should be
his by right. When the steamer St.
Louis limped into port days behind
schedule time, and tears of joy rained
down the cheeks Of those who feared
they had lost loved ones, few per-
sons at least realized that no amount
Of money could equal in value an in
vention that makes it possible to con-
vey information without wires,
through storm and fogs, to the friends
safe on land.

The celebration of centenaries, which
began vigorously in this country In
1875, with the centenary of the battle
of Lexington, and has been proceed
ing Mt a lively rate ever since, Is be-
lieved by some good people to be
growing tiresome, and they call for
halt If the practice is stopped, it
will be because formal celebrations
have become monotOnous, not because
the list Of important centenaries has
reached an end. The year 1903 was
prolific of events deserving Of recol-
lection If not of celebration. So far
as the United States Is concerned the
greatest event of 1903 was the Louisi-
ana purchase. That transaction dou-
bled the original area Of the nation
and confirmed Its destiny of grandeur
to which the revolution only opened
the way. The territory thus peace
fully acquired by President jefferson
from France for the nominal sum of
Slo,OO0,O00, or less than $12 a square
mile, extended from the Gulf of Mex
leo to Canada and from the Mississip-
pi to the Rocky Mountains. Jefferson
made the purchase without authority.
