WHAT REAL PROPERTY IS.
Pieces of Paper in 2 Bank Vault or Deposit Book Are Equal to
 Land in Holding.

What a wonderful change has passed over our entire conception of the word sproperty!" The writer is old enough to remember when noth- ing except land and houses was re- garded as trrA property; but now a man may be millionaire and own nothing that he can see, says the Lon- don Spectator. A few pieces of paper in a box at his bankers, or better still, an inscription in a book of which he knows nothing except that it exists, constitute him a man rich beyond the dreams of avarice, and, moreover, q man who has not to guard his prop erty, and who can realize it-which the rich men of old could not do-in half an hour. It is very curious change, and one the full Results of which we have yet to perceive; but we suspect that among them will be an immense increase in the amount of wealth at the disposal of industry and enterprise, and an astonishing de- crease in the permanence of the wealthy families. It is so easy to spend shares or bonds, and there are so few to notice whether you spend them or not. It took years to spend a great landed estate; but fortune in bonds may disappear, as many Ger man families have recently learned, in 8 year of unlucky speculation, or in the early lifetime of one spendthrift hair

HEARD IN PASSING

The Hawaiian cable is an accom- plished fact. Marconi says his wireless system is also an accomplished fact. And now comes an Englishman who asserts the present cable rates are un- duly high.
 Rev Wilbur Fisk Crafts is endeavor- ing to turn the congress of the United States into a modern and up-to-date Sunday school Wilbur magnifies his office pushing himself and his theories in season and out of seasoa, and is chiefly responsible for that flank move of Satan that drove our soldiers out side of the barracks for their beer.
 One reason for the rapid advance of America is that the strong and inde- pendent peoples of the older countries, who are forced to leave their homes by reason of laws dictated by tyranny or bigotry, invariably find this country as q home. The czar's treatment of the Films is resulting in a new infusion of fresh blood, and Russia will suffer to the same extent that America is bene- fited.

THE VICES OF BRITTANY.
Strange Condition of Inhabitants Who Are So Near to the Great
 French Capital.

Having spent two summers in Brit tany, I find myself wondering that one can be so near and.yet so far from civ ilization; that in this day and genera tion, in a country whose advanced thinkers lead the world there can be people so ignorant of all that makes life acceptable to an enlightened peo- pie. Their sep1icivilized manner of life and thought, however. will not be changed until the new generationssare taught in public schools that life is made up of duties which each godly person owes to himself.
 Take, for instance the thing that is next to god1iness--cleanline The Bretons have not the least notion of what it is. To get into their home, which more properly should be called huts, one must step through deep mire of muddy manure, which rots there from years end to years end. The pigs liye-with the people, and if the cows and oxen do not it is be- cause they either cannot getsinto the doors or they would, take up too much room in the small houses.
 The children grow up like little say ages until they are put into theshands of sisters to be taught their letters, then the teaching that concerns soul and body is done by sisters who know little about life, health, the disciplin- ing of minds, the teaching of truth and righteousness hardly more than the parents of these children do. Thus generation after generation goes on with the same habits, with the same vices, utterly ignorant of progress, of enlightenment.
 Drinking in Brittany is a scourge, says correspondent of the Brooklyn Eagle. The soberest have their days in which they usually get dead drunk. In Pont Aven I had a woman come an hour in the evening to do some work. She told me from the beginning that she could not come on Thursdays be- cause she was obliged to go and get her husband from the marchand de win, for that was the day he got drunk. You will find common bedroom in each house in which the whole family sleep. l have seen these rooms with a bed in each corner in which mother, father, grandmother and grandfather and six small children sleep and the pigs and their family had a sty in the middle of the room. And yet it is said that Brittany is moral country; but doubtless their idea of morality is a. broad one

AN OPTIMISTIC OBSERVER
Mfr. Tims on's Opinions OlP Pl4echnnase Il
 Innovations and His Cneere #f fuI Conclusion.

Tn machinery Ruskin saw only un- loveliness. Much may be said in de fense of his point of view, but some thing also may be conceded to the point of view of the plain person who believes that the world is pretty well ordered, after all. Such a plain per- Son is Joshua Jimson, whose large, if not very closely reasoned, views were recently set forth in the coi- umns of the Chicago Record-Herald
 T used to tremble,' said MT. Jim son, every time I heard of another invention. First there was the nov ing-machine. Thinks I: sGood-by to the poor boys that have been making living working on the farms But can't see s it ever made any differ cerned.
 ''Then we got the reapers and binders and these thrashing-m chimes that do the whole thing at once. We'll. when they began to come along I says:
 "'This is 1sle end of it for the farmland. He may as we'll go away somewhere and lie down and die. There isn't any use for him any more.' But farmhands seem about as scarce as ever, and mebbe lit tie more so. So I've just made up my mind that I am not going to worry any more about it. Let the inventors keep on inventing all they please. guess. therell be sunthing for the rest of us to do, no matter how many patent rights they keep get ting out.
 ssWhy, look at those automobiles! When they first got to racing round. Judd Hawkins says to me: 'Josh,' says he, I guess this is going to end it.
 How SOP says I.
 "'When they get to running wag- ons without horses, they won't need hay or oats says he, and those are the things where the farme1 makes most of his money, because they're the easiest to raise.'
 Don't you worry, says I. You just wait and see what happens
 "And now look at it!'' continued MT. Jimson. Here they've got so many automobiles and electric things kiting round you wouldn't hardly think the horses could keep from feeling lonesome, specially in the cities, but oats are higher'n ever heard of 'em being before.
 "You can't make me believe that God Almighty is going to let few inventors down here upset His whole calculations, and leave a lot O stuff lying round useless to spoil, so I'm not going to worry about it again."

OLD MAIDS AS LISTENERS.
Patient Souls Into Whose Ears the Countless sConfdencee of Oth-
 CTS Are Poured.

The good listeners, on the other hand, are the old maids to whose speech nobody pays any attention, yet to whom everybody talks. writes Miss Lillie Hamilton French, in Gen. tury. And I wonder. considering how many condolences men have poured into their ears, and how many other things men have found to say about them. that not gentleman has yet been found good and gener- ous enough to pay tribute to this surpassing excellence in spinsters- an excellence so dear to the mascu- line mind. How many old-maid aunts, indeed. have nephews not be- guiled? How many old-maid sisters have not opened thair ears to the self-praise of their unsuccessful brothers who have missed hearing at the bar, or in the pulpit, or wher- ever there was competition among men?
 Patient souls, these old maids, lis tening to each of us as mother only listens to her own, and who have listened so long that at last they have the air of never expecting anyone to pay attention to them. They venture into speech on their own account, as timid mice into par- lors, ready on the instant to whisk about and seek cover again. These, though, are the old maids for whom corners are never lacking, so eager are the very least among men to assure themselves of hearing some xvhora

An +be comments on Governor

All the comments on Governor Chamberlain's inaugural are favorable The republican and democratic papers are alike quick to appreciate that, while it is not a brilliant or rhetorlcai document, it displays soundness, sense and sanity. By the large mass of peo- ple his plan of house reapportionment is viewed with favor and it IS recog- nized that it conforms to the declara- tion incorporated in both the repupll- can and the democratic state plat forms last September. The new gov ernor has reason to feel proud or tne reception which his message has met. Hartford Post
 It takes pretty mild tempered man to please both parties, as you say tne new governor is doing. Well, very few looked for anything radical or riotous in Governor Chamberlain 5 message. He isn't that kind of man.
