Henry phipps' Great Charity.

From the Kansas City World.
 During the year ended May a. 1900, there were 1.039,094 deaths in the Uni- ted States, and 109, 75O were from con- sumption.
 These figures make Henry Phipps' charity all the more interesting. Henry Phipps is an iron king who was once as- sociated with Andrew Carnegie. Mir. Phipps made a great deal of money. Some say he has a hundred million dollars. At least he has more than he can spend. Instead of following In the footsteps of other mllionaires and devoting his wealth to libraries and colleges he is going to invest million or two in the nobest kind of charity.
 He Is going to fight consumption. He Is going to put his dollars against a disease that has caused more sorrow in homes of povery than any other ill that assails the body.
 The rich consumptives may die and the poor must die.
 That is because it costs money to fight the disease. The child who is coughing it's little life away in a hovei needs good food. constant attention. pure air and unlimited sunshine in q cry climate.
 The doctor can prescribe those things. but he might as we'll in many cases, ad- wise a trip to the moon.
 With all the wealth in this country, with money on every hand, with society throwing dollars away, human beings die because of bitter poverty.
 So Mir. Phipps called the architects and doctors in and said: T want a great hospital for consumptIves. The cost isn't going to matter. Locate 1t in the center of the city, among the poor. It Is to be free. We will have the best scientific talent in the world. We will buy everything that tends to comfort and we will try to save some lives in our fight against consumption"
 That Is the biggest thing Henry Phipps ever did, and the noblest. Surely a man who can think of such thing and finds it in his heart to carry out the grand idea. no matter what 1t costs, has a fine nature that even the possession of great wealth cannot strangle.

GIRLS AND GIRLS IN SOCIETY.
Shallow Pates Generally the Shining
 Lights In the Parlor.

From the San Francisco Bulletin,
 Many bright girls, with fine. well-filed minds. and even with some sense of hu- nor, are dull as clans in company. In a parlor some shallow, rattling girl who does not know much can outshine them completely. By their reticence the girls of this silent class gain an unmerited name among men for being stupid and backward.
 Most men who complain that girls do not say anything worth while hearing have themselves to blame They expect girl to entertain them while they sit silent, without an idea in their heads, and when they do talk to girls they utter generally little but Vapid compliments and sentimental, silly trifies. The man who talks sensibly and seriously to some of these reticent girls and thereby draws them out may find a good deal more in- formation and solid thought than he an- tcipates. Real intellectual ability does not run much to chatter and the wo- man whose opinions are worth something is often chary of throwing them at every man who happens to sit down beside her.
 Brightness in conversation Is a matter more of temperament than of brains. Persons who think quickly and do not go to the bottom of a subject are apt to be the better readier takers in a parlor. They will utter two opinions while a wiser head is forming one. They do not prize exacttude and correctness so much as cleverness and effect. They would rather express a false sentiment brilliantly than a true sentiment dully. They help to keep the company in a lively state for an evening, but they would be very exasperating matrimon- ial mates, for one cannot stand more than few hours of glittering conversation without feeling pain.
 Cultivate the reticent girl. She may be perfect fool, but, too she may have very clear, original intellect and when you know her well and win her respect and confidence. she may turn out a far more entertaining. profitable converser than her shallower sister who chatters so gayly, so forthily and so necessarily As a rule people who talk exceedingly well on first acquaintance become tire some after extended intercourse The reticent people wear best because, as a class. they think best A girl who is silent when she has nothing to say makes a better companion for life than a girl who always thinks she has something. to say. Among girls. as among men, the aolest minds. the truest friends and the most agreeable companions are not al- ways the ones that talk most. Often a girl who sits as quiet as a mouse in com pany does thinking enough for whole family.

ALASKAN BOUNDARY
 TREATY IS RATIFIED
Senate Lost Little Time During
 Executive Session,
TELLER WOULD NOT DELAY
Some of the Senators Considered the Agreement Non-Ameriean, 6ut Said the Facts Were Too
 Plain for Dispute.

Washington, February 1t.-In an exec utlve session which lasted only an hour and a half today, the senate in addition to confirming a large number of nomina- tions, ratified the Alaskan boundary treaty and came near taking similar action on the commercial treaty with Greece, which was reported by Senator Cullom today from the committee on foreign relations.
 The Greek treaty was read through by the clerk and then Senator cullom asked that the resolution of ratification be acted upon. but Senator Hoar of Massachusetts objected. He said he desired an oppor- tunity to amend the provisions concern ing consular trials. He explained that he had no objection to the general pnrport or the treaty. but said that as the provision was read, 1t seemed to him to be loose- ly drawn and he wanted an opportunity to read it carefully before giving his as sent to it. The principal purpose of the Greek treaty is the regulation of com merce between Greece and the United States

MARcoNps WAVES PLAY FRANKS.
Set Telephone Bells Jinglne in Vicinity Of Wireless Station.

Welfeet, Mass, Correspondence New
 York World.
 Phenomena attributed to the termen- dous agitation in the ether have been noted in the immediate vicinity of the Marconi wireless telegraph station. On the night the Presidents greetings to King Edward were sent the government telephone behaved outrageously and dis turbed the men in the life-saving sta tions. Last night, when Marconi was sending test messages to Poldhu, a boarder In the old Holbrook Tavern, which Is not nearer than four miles to the wireless plant, was aroused from sleep by a mysterious tip-tap- tapping in his room. The boarder struck q match, lighted a lamp and began to explore. Very close to the wash bowl stood an ordinary water tumbler, which at inter- vals like the clicking of a telegraphic sounder responding to the signals of a slow sender was vibrated against the side of the bowl. giving out a sound that could be heard outside in the hallway.
 Mareoni smiled when told of this new kind of "coherer or magnetic detector." but would not attempt to explain the mystery.
 Regarding the behavior of the tole- phone wires he was interested sufficient ty to ask if the reporters had heard of any trouble on the different lines more than half mile away from the towers would be affected by induction. but sad there was a remedy If trouble should occur.
 Marconi continued his experiments with the sending apparatus transmit ting signals and test messages. To all of these, replies came. received by the way of Glace bay. Poldhu also reported that signals from Wellfleet came smooth ly and distinctly.
 One of the messages sent across last night was addressed to one of the Mar conf company officials in London, say ing that the inventor had engaged pas

No Delay Securing Action.

There was no delay in securing action on the Alaskan treaty and very little op- position was manifested. Senator Teller said he considered the Alaskan boundary so well determined as to make 1t not matter of dispute.
 That while he would not delay it, he would not vote for it. Senator Mason made few similar remarks. adding that he considered the procedure proposed by the treaty non-American The ayes ana noes were not called, but there were several voices heard in the negative when an informal expression was called for. The ayes were so much more numerous, however, that the decision of the chair to the effect that ratification had prevailed, was not challenged.
 All the provisions of the Alaskan boundary treaty except one paragraph from the French portion of the treaty. have been published heretofore by the public press. An official translation of this paragraph, which was an extract from the Russian Anglo treaty of 1925, incorporated into the new Alaskan treaty, has been made and is as follows:
 Shall Form No Establishment.
 '1t is moreover agreed that no estab- lishment shall be formed by either of the two parties within the limits which the two presiding articles assign to the possessions of the other Consequently, British subjects shall not form any es- tablishment either upon the coast or up- on the mainland strip, comprised within the limits of the Russian possessions, as they are designated in the two preceding articles, and in likewise, no establish ment shall be formed by the Russian subjects beyond the said limits. :" Senator Culom asked the senate to give up the day tomorrow after the con clusion of routine business to executive work No objection was made Senator Quay. who has charge of the statehood bill gave his assent with others It is Senator Culloms intention to take up the Panama canal treaty and to follow that with the Cuban reciprocity treaty. The understanding still is that Senator Morgan will discuss the canal treaty at some length
