plicants for enlistment are rejected

Bull is no longer fitting type of the
English people The cause Of it7 Sin.
When we say sin we do not mean sin
In a theological sense alone. Most OF
us forget that sin against the human
body Is immortality. We act as il we
could violate the laws Of nature with
IMMUNITY. We forget that the laws Of
the body are as plain as the laws graV-
en- on the stones. And that the penal
ty is attached. And SO there is sin
against natures laws. Violation Of
the rules Of health. Violation Of mar
rage laws Alcoholism. Dissipation.
High nervous tension. A mad chase
after dollars. No relaxation. The
pace that kills. Tyranny Of unjust
laws? That may operate somewhat in
England And caste. These produce
poverty and crime. But what L. injus-
tice and caster Sin. The soul that
sinneth 1t shall de-" is as true of the
soul Of a nation as OF an individual.
Tho people of the United States have
not yet reached the stage Of percept-
bic physical decay. The iron of virile
races Is intermingled in their blood.
But, 1.-THE wages Of sin is DEATH" and
we are SHINING. Put 1t on the very
lowest plane. Morality pays. 1t pays
an individual. It pays a people.

Maid Of Athens.


Maid of Athens, ere we part,
Give, oh, give me back my heart!
Or, since that has left my breast,
Keep it now, and take the restl
Hear my vow before I 60,
Zoe mou sas agapo."
BY those tresses unconfned,
Wood by each Aegean wind;
By those lids whose jetty fringe
Kiss thy soft cheeks blooming tinge;
BY those wild eyes like the roe,
Zoe mou sas agapo.
By that lip long to taste;
BY that zone-encircled waist;
By all the token-fowers that tell
What words can never speak so well;
BY loves alternate Joy and woe,
Zoe mou sas agapo.
Maid of Athens! l am gone;
Think of me, sweet! when alone.
Though fly to Istambol.
Athens holds my heart and soul;
Can I cease to love thee? No!
Zoe mou sas agapo.

Failings of Correspondents.

"Not one person in ten folds let

side up" said the correspondence clerk
Of a large New York publishing house,
in the New York Times. "This firm
receives upward Of 1000 letters a day,
and 1t Is my duty to sort them and
send them to the various heads Of de-
opened fiat, with the envelope attached
by a clip. In almost every instance
the letter Is folded and put in the en-
velope SO that have to turn 1t around
before l can read it. l have talked
with friends in similar positions to
mine, and they tell me they have the
same experience. 1t seems q tritling
matter to a person who opens only
FIVE or six letters day, but to me this
loss Of time caused by either the igno-
rance or carelessness Of letter writers
Is considerable.
"Fully two-thirds of the letters re-
ceived by business houses are filed.
Cabinets for this purpose are arranged
80 that one must refer to the begin
ming of the letter, on the right-hand
side. to find the date. One-half the
persons who write ON matters of bust
ness, particularly women, put the date
at the end Of the letter and on the
left-hand side, SO that we have to lift
the whole bunch to get at 1t. These
failings OF correspondents are worse
than illegibls writing and incorrect
spelling"

Il j What Hay Is Doing.
Having heard from the president, SEQ
retary Hay is now In position to act. In
deed, he has already taken the first steps.
altho for obvious reasons it is not deemed
well to indicate their nature. This gov
ernment will not join in a general protest.
The state department policy is SO clearly
defined In such matters that it ID
known that whatever action the United
States takes will be Individual It may
| run parallel to the action Of other powers.
| but there win be no, entanglins. alliances.
1t begins to appear that Manchuria is
| hopelessly lost to China. and the best
that can be done is to save as much as
| possible from the wreck. The effort will
! probably be made to procure from Russia,
| a binding promise that the powers will
! not be entirely deprived Of the right to
| exploit Manchuria commercially. 1t may
| be possible to secure the opening OF one
| or two ports such as was proposed in the
pending treaty between China and the
| United States.
Secretary Hay has authorized Minister
Conger to protest to China against any

! fere with the rights of the United States
to free commercial intercourse or abridge

FRANcE FINDS EXCUSES
Course Of Her Ally Strikes the Paris Gov.
. ernment as Proper.


Paris, April 2.-The foreign office here
has received lengthy advices from Wash
ington regarding the feeling aroused In
the United States over the steps taken
by Russia, in connection with Manchuria.
The dispatches show that the American
government does not intend to join the
mowers in opposing the Russian demands,
but that the United States will conf1ne It's
action to safeguarding its own CONNER
ciaI interests. The assurances have cre-
ated a strongly favorable feeling here.
The advices also state that Ambassador
Mccormick at St. Petersburg has been
instructed to forward information on the
subject to Washington. The officials
here say this will probably disclose that
Russia'sy action, has been less radical than
appeared at first. The view prevails
that the powers having political antago-
nis1n towards Russia are responsible for
the present agitation. It is stated that
Russia's demands do not mean q ternf-
nation of the open door policy, but only
a continuance under Russian admins
tration of similar restrictions now inn
posed by China.
In government quarters unmistakabls
| sympathy with the Russian attitude is
shown. It is claimed that Russian inter-
ests in Manchuria and its proximity to
| Siberia entitle Russia to take supervisory
steps.

Washington, April 26.-Ambassador

that Russia, in her proposed treaty with
China had no designs against American
trade in Manchuria. The ambassador did
not deny that the claims Of Russia, as re-
ported by Minister Conger were correctly
stated, orEthat the proposition In the new
treaty of the United States with China,
to open treaty ports at Mukden and other
places, will have to be abandoned II the
