MCCLELLAN TALKS WAR.
Then Takes It Back BY Explaining
From New York's Mayor It Was

Sensational.
New York, Oct. 12.-Mayor McClel-
Ian welcomed the delegates to the In
trenational Peace Congress to this city
yesterday at luncheon at the Hotel
sstor given by the Chamber of Com
merce. In his speech the mayor ad-
vocated resort to arms to uphold some
truths and avenge some wrongs, but
apologized for the outburst, saying the
old Adam in him had cried out for
war. He said
I'VE glory in the fact that We are
so much better than our forefathers,
yet at the dawn of the new century we
stand breathless with admiration for
the advance in civilization made by an
oriental power, not so uch because she
has progressed in the arts, In letters
and in tn hunanities, not because she
Is killing her tens Of thousands of hui
man beings in accordance with the
most MODERN the most approved and
the most scientific methods.
..It may be that the universal peace
is only dream and an ideal, but even
SO, 1t is an ideal that all nations Should
strive for. There are some things
I grant that arbitration never can
accomplish Arbitration would never
have freed the thirteen colonies or
saved our glorious union. There are
some truths so vital and SO sacred that
they must be upheld, even with the
lives of martyrs. There are some
wrongs so foul that they can only be
blotted out with the blood of heroes
II came here to sing the praises of
peace and the old Adam in me has
cried out for war, but do not misunder-
stand me. 1 believe that arbitration
can remove most of the primary
causes of war, and that nations should
exhaust every honorable effort to ad-
Just their differences before appealing
to the last red arbitrament of the
sword /"

AN ARBITRARY TYRANT.
This AutOcrat Exists Solely by tn,
Will of the People.

This AutOcrat Exists Solely by the
Will of the People.
And it came to pass that in the very
height of modern times an arbitrary
tyrant ruled over a great country call
ed America. The name of this tyrant
was Everybodydoesit, and all the in
habitants of the land bowed themselves
to his will.
Terror of the autocrat caused grown
men and women to cast aside every
dictate of common sense-sometimes
Of honesty as well. Children over
studied, wearing out precious eyesight,
cramping growing organs, yet mothers
whispered under their breath the name
of Everybodydoesit and the evil went
on. Men bought houses and European
passages, automobiles and other ex-
pensive luXuries, the cost of which was
out of all proportion to their income.
"Everybodydoesit'' was the explana-
ton they gave.
Sorriest of all was the case of the
young girls. They patronized un-
wholesome plays, read books produced
by diseased minds, they overdressed,
abandoned the gentle ideals of their
mothers day and grew old before their
time. "Everybodydoesit," they said.
And thus it was in all classes of soci-
ETY. throughout the broad land All
men and women, young and old, recog-
nized the sway of Everybodydoesit and
bowed their necks to his yoke.-Phila-
delphia North American.

An Accommodation Train,

In the lake district of England there
Is a tiny railway which has only one
train run by two officials, one of whom
is managing director, ticket collector,
guard and porter and the other chief
engineer, engine driver and stoker. The
train stops anywhere. 1t frequently
goes off the line, but crowbars are car
ried, with which the train is persuaded
to return to its proper position. When
a friend of either official is observed
the train is brought to a standstill At
one time, when the managing director
was counting the daughter of a farmer
through whose lands the line ran, the
young lady would take her stand at
certain gate every evening, the train
would be stopped, and the young man
would kiss her good night
