WHEN A MAN sTARvEs.

For the first two days through which Q strong and healthy man is doomed to exist upon nothing his sufferings are perhaps more acute than in the remain ing stages; he feels an inOrdinate, un- speakable craving at the stomach at night and day. The mind run5 upon beef, bread and other substances, but still, in a great measure, the body re- tains it's strength. On the third and fourth days, but especially on the fourth, this incessant craving gives place to a sinking and weakness of the stomach. accompanied by nausea.
 On the fifth day his cheeks appear hollow and sunken, his body attenuat- ed, his color is asly pale and his eyes wild, glassy and cannibalistic.
 The sixth day brings with it increas- cd suffering, although the bangs of hunger are lost in an over towering languor and sickness. The head be- comes dizzy, the ghosts of well-remem- cred dinners pass in hideous procession through the mind.
 The seventh day comes, bringing in- creasing Iassitude and further prostra- ton of strength. The m.nd wanders.- Chicago Chronicle.

The News -- East and West.

If a thing happens in New York it is seventeen times as important Us any thing that happens elsewhere in the country. Some months ago a race track gambler named Young was killed while riding in a New York cab. With him when he was shot was a fourth rate actress harmed Patterson. The Patterson woman is on trial for mur- der. The murder trial is the most prom tnent feature in the New York papers. but that is not to be wondered at. The surprising feature is that the details of the trial are considered so import ant that they are telegraphed at length to all parts of the country.
 If Young had been murdered in any other city the news would have had its due space in the news of the day. and the progress of the trial would have been covered by two or three lines in the dispatches.
 The country always turns the big end of the telescope toward New York, and New York turns the small end to- ward the country.

A southern CaII to Arms.

Most southern people have good sense of humor. and 1t must occur to them as extremely funny that here and there in the south is to be heard the voices of two-legged jackasses praying for another war of secession. The country at large is of the opinion that the south is prosperous and happy and the south itself will be surprised to learn that it is ready for another re- bellion.
 A rebellion on what grounds? Why, because a New York judge named AL ton Brooks Parker was defeated for the presidency by another New Yorker. a literary man and statesman named Theodore Roosevelt, to be sure! To arms! We find one of the secessionists, the Hon. Robert T. Bentley of Ala bama, thus expressing himself in the Huntsville Mercury:
 Tt appearing that Theodore ROose- welt. the head and front of the repub- lican party, which represents the dan gerous policies of civilization, protec- tive tariff imperialism and social equality. has been elected president of the United States by a strictly cleo toral vote. and has established an in surmountable barrier between the north and south, feel constrained to express my humble opinion, as Q true and patriotic American citizen of the south, that if the republican party should continue it's dangerous policies for the next four years and should triumph ia the next national election, that the thirteen states which voted for Alton B. Parker should secede from the union and by force of arms resist an oppression which means the carly fall of our great republic"
 We mistrust the soundness of Col. Bentley's premises. We fear that the south of today is not ready to go to war, and will be less ready four years hence to rebel because Theodore Roosevelt represents the dangerous policies of civilization" and so forth. It is true that MT. Roosevelt is a stall wart representative of the policies of civilization. but we apprehend that 1T will be difficult to arouse any section of the American people to war because Of fear that too much civilization will be thrust upon them. The average American is ready to welcome all movements for higher civilization.
 However, we do not wish to minimize the danger which now confronts the country. The new rebellion may break out before the time fixed by General Bentley, for revolutionary forces once set in motion cannot be controlled by their authors. And when hosulities do begin, no doubt the fire-eating Bentley will be the first to go-dOwn to the depot to see the boys leave for the front
 In the interest of peace we feel like telegraphing to the president at St. Louis this very Sunday and suggesting that he instruct Postmaster Bob Wynne to appease Field Marshal Bent ley with a postofice.

Prince nIrsky,s Heavy Task.

In asking the czar through their town councils for a voice in the gov ernment. the people of Russia have though the ear did refuse the repre- sentatives of the zemstvos the privi- lege of holding a public meeting. The moderate, yet firm demands formulat- ed express, undoubtedly. the sentiments of a vast majority of intelligent Rus sians aside from the titled and official class. And the prompt and hearty re- sponse these demands have met in all parts of the civilized world was the remarkable development of the week It emphasizes the community of inter est of all civilization. And the atti- tude taken by the foreign press has demonstrat ted to the czar that if he continues his policy of repression he will lose the respect of the world So long, however. as the czar is a puppet in the hands of the reactionary grand dukes there is likely to be little change in the administrative methods of his government.
 But will the czar shift the course of his ship? The fate of Russia for years to come, the fate of the dynasty it. self, may depend on the outcome. for civil war is among the possibilities of the near future.
 During this crucial period in Russian history the heaviest task in the en- pire is on the shoulders of Prince Svia- topolk MirslHy, the new minister of the interior. When Prince Mirsky was se- lected as the successor of the murdered de Plehve, 1t almost seemed as if some Russian saint of good luck had di- rected the assassin's bomb against de Plehve, for Mirsky the antithesis of

midnight when the toast was pro.

FAMOUS FOR FAT.
Daniel Lambert, Who Died In 1909,
Got Too Obese to Wabble.

The fame of Daniel Lambert as
champion among fat men in England,
If not in the world, still remains I'M
rivaled. Daniel was born at Leicester
in ITO and died in 1909 at Stamford.
The grandson of a celebrated cock
fighter and addicted to sport through
out his life, his dimensions were not
extraordinary, and his habits were not
different from those Of other lads I'M
til he was fourteen years DID, When
twenty-three years of age, however, he
turned the scale at thirty-two stone,
and, although he is recorded to have
been then able to walk from Woolwich
to London, at the time of his death, in
his fortieth year, he had attained the
prodigious weight of fifty-two stone, or
72S pounds, and was more or less help
less. He was a modest man, and when
he had achieved physical greatness
fame was thrust upon him. He was
for long time unwilling to be made
show of, but he gained a more than
local reputation, and people travelled
from far to see him, resorting to vari
GUS devices in order to be allowed to
do so. AT length the prospect Of profit
overcame his resolution, and for four
years before his death he exhibited
himself in London and in the prov
inces.
He was apparently a man Of some
wit, for once, before he permitted the
nulo1ic RI Oa1o r1pon him on i,,c,yici+ivo
person had gained access to his pres
ence by pretending to be fellow
sportsman interested in the pedigree Of
a mare, whereupon Lambert promptly
replied, "She was bred by Impertinence
out of Curiosity" Before the days Of
Daniel lambert, Edward Bright of
Maiden was we'll known fat man, al
though his name no longer fingers as
household word. He died in 1850 at
the age Of thirty years, weighing forty
two stone and seven pounds, and is
stated to have been an active man till
year or two before his death, when
his cOrpulency so overpowered his
strength that his life was a burden and
his death a deliverance. Both Bright
and Lambert seem to have been genial,
good humored fellows and very popular
among those who visited them. In
deed popularity seems to be the lot Of
the corpulent in fact as well as in fic-
ton. The heroes of fiction, however.
have the advantage in the matter of
lasting glory, and the names of Daniel
Lambert and the fat boy of Peckham
sink into insignifcance beside those of
Falstaff and the fat boy in "Pickwick."

1t was at the Worlds Columbian
exposition, eleven years ago, that the
council Of Jewish women took it's place
among the sisterhoods of the world, re-
alizing that the form of aristOcratic So
cialism known as organization had
touched womankind and that the Jewish
woman, with the rest, felt a sense of re-
sponsbility and desire to be Of some
service with the strength of union. Like
that other form of arstocratic socialism,
the trust. we learned the lesson of the age
that concentration meant power. Unlike
the trust, however, ours was not an or
ganization for exclusion, but for uni
versatility, and we hailed each new link
that gave us more individuals to share
the good we were achieving and to divide
the work we aimed to do. These eleven
years have bound together more than TO-
600 women of our faith, living in sew
enty cities, thirteen of which have junior
sections.
