TIE WORK OF PREVENTION.

When every business man becomes a
sociologist and when every socioIogist
adopts business methods, the child
criminal will vanish from the face of
the civilized earth. In the meanwhile
it is a very good thing for commune
ties that have expended many pounds
for cure and but few pennies for pre-
vention to hearken to such men "a
Judge Tuthi1l, WHO can explain fro,,
the business mans standpoint and from
the sociologist's standpoint, Just what
practical preventive work among neg
lected children has accomplished for
! those communities that have, tried it.
In his address before the Church Clubs
Of the United States, in session in Chi
cago, Judge Tuthill gave the accom-
plishment Of the Chicago juvenile court
| In figures. Before it's establishment
ninety per cent of the child offenders
| of Chicago became criminals; since it's
establishment one-haIf of these Offend
ers have been saved.
Within the last few years it has be-
come the fashion to take the child very
| seriously, but, unfortunately, it has been
| the child of the home and not the child
Of the street whose needs have been
| profoundly discussed in papers, clubs
and magazines. The solicitous public

shown very little disposition to pro-
vide guardians for those who are prac-
tically parcntless. The Chicago juve-

ON TIE SIDE OE RUSSIA.

The enemy that Japan has chiefly to
fear is one human trait which all OBJ
servers have found developed among
the Russian people to an extent and a
perfection found nowhere else. This is
their monumental, incredible and mex
haustible patience. Travellers over the
Siberian railroad will tell you that at
each stop long lines of men, women
and little children may be seen stand
ing at the railroad station, each bear
ing some form of refreshment to be
sold to hungry passengers. There they
wait, if necessary, for hours until a de-
layed train arrives. There they wait
without clamor, only expressing their
anxiety in the fashion of dumb animals
for possible customers. There they
either wait for another train or dis
perse quickly after the last hope of a
sale has vanished. Day after day and
month after month this continues.
All over Russia there is the same at
mosphere Of wonderful endurance. II
is perhaps the most salient and domi-
nant characteristic of the Russian. II
sustains him through the terrors of ex-
lie and the hardships of the Siberian
prison or mine. 1t has been the prop OF
the peasant class ever since Russia be-
came a stable society. The serfs were
held ia their place by their endless en-
durance. The agricultural laborer, the
artisan and the small proprietor OF
Russia today are all practically fatal
istic in their readiness to endure. Nj
hilism has been shattered to pieces like
one Of it's own bombs against the side
Of a mountain upon this one pervasive
quality Of the Russian race.
Never were national characteristics
so wonderfully we'll exhibited as in this
| contest. 1t looks as if, though the race
| may not be to the swift, the battle
would be to the strong. Japan seems
to have omitted from her otherwise
| perfect calculation all count of the rul-
ing race quality of the Russian. She
| has carried everything before her with 8
dash as far as she could reach. She
has not been able to reach the body OF
| the Russian, or even to touch its cir
conference. Every days delay has
been vitality injurious to her and vitality
| serviceable to her great opponent. The
declared policy of Russia is dictated
by the sentiment and the Fundamental
quality Of the race. In a test of pa
tience and endurance the Japanese are
| no match for the Russians.

Fertile, Mimi. April %.
Believes the Great Fight at ST. Louis VIII
Be on the Platform.

To the Editor of The Globe:
/ see only one thing that may prevent
Judge Parker from being the logical Dem
ocratic candidate for president. Will the
platform adopted in national convention
fit the candidate? / believe the delegates
in convention who supported William ].
Bryan in the last two presidential cleo
tions will be willing to have the free coin
age of silver at the rate of sixteen to one
eliminated from our platform, but when
We come to the plank in the old platform
referring to the income tax. must we
in the West yield that as well? If not.
will Senator Hill stand up and tell US their
candidate is in fayor of the income tax?
II he does it will show that Judge Parker
and Mr.. Hill are not one and the same.
That win help Judge Parker I'm the West,
but how viii 1t affect him at home, where
Democratic votes count more than they
do with us?
/ think the sol delegates in New York,
who represent a Republican majority
from $4,000 to 125. 600, made a mistake
when they refused 149 delegates who rep
resent about the same Democratic major
ity the privilege of going to ST. Louis.
and at the proper time after the platform
was adopted. instead of asking the rep
TeEentatiVe Democrats of the nation to
nominate Judge Parker to please them,
give reasons why Judge Parker should be
nominated as the Democratic candidate
for president in the interest of all the
people in every state In the Union. The
battle royal this year in the Democratic
convention will be over the platform. In
stead of instructing our delegates to vote
for any particular candidate, tell them to
go help build the platform; when that is
done they will vote for the candidate that
is an embodiment of the principles they
have advocated. This is Democratic and
win give more general satisfaction as j see
it in this corner of the state.

nile court is one Of the few encourag-
ing signs of more hopeful future for
the child who is born into the world
without any future. The probation
officer employed by many large cities
is another such sign.
AS soon as the public learns to de-
mand results in return for the money
1t has expended on reformatories, the
future of the neglected child will be
definitely assured. For a dollars and
cents accounting is apt to remove the
bogie of paternalism from the path of
progress and make government re-
sponsibility for every child's welfare
seem not an interference and an i'm
pertinence, but a natural right. Child
criminals are formed, not reformed. in
the average reformatory as it exists
today. The work of prevention will
have to commence before the child
reaches the refornatory or the reform
atory win have to be materially
changed. Fiction is not fact of course,
but it is rather curious that such works
of fiction dealing with the criminal
class as have been published within
recent years have laid particular stress
on the unreforming character of chill
dren's refOrmatories. Perhaps the pen
OF an American Dickens will yet stir
the public to a realization of the neces-
sity for more thorough preventive
work.

STILL CABINET MAKING.

1t is very clear that Postmaster
General Payne, whatever the outcome
of his present illness, will return no
more to his place at the head of the
postoffice department. He will confer
a favor upon his chief If he arranges
to betake himself to a better land
where BristOWs cease from troubling
and congressman are not allowed to
shout their heads off. If he RECEIVERS
he will be permitted to retire to Mil
waukee and enjoy the fruits of his
labors in the political field-the fruits
consisting largely of Dead sea apples.
He has outlived his usefulness to the
administration, and if he pines for
public mortuary honors he would better
hurry.
Thus it transpires that the president
of the United States has gone back
to his early occupation of cabinet
making. So far his efforts in this di-
reetion have not been blessed. He
has sought to build a structure COR
sisting altogether of front, with John
Hay for the foundation, trimmings and
cornice. He has met with such sue
cess as might be looked for by the
man who attempts to build house of
cards and chooses nine-spots for the
props. He Will again go to the kitchen
cabinet for material, it is announced in
an obviously inspired story emanating
from the White house press bureau
which points to CorteIyou as the sue
cessor of Payne.
Mr. CortelyOu is a very gentlemanly
young person; he knows his Roose-
veltiana thoroughly; he is guaranteed
to feed out of the presidential hand.
For some months he has held two cab
met places-one in the official house
hold Of the president the other in the
kitchen cabinet. He has not yet par
ticularly distinguished himself in the
performance of his public duties, but
there are reasons for believing that he
is handy man in the kitchen coun-
ellis.
There can be no possible objection
to the selection of Cortelyou as the
successor. Of Payne. Some hardened
old politicians who have been engaged
in cleaning out the elephants stable
| for years may sneer at him; editors
who require in cabinet officers special
| fitness and executive capacity will re-
frain from indorsing his selection. But
| these people are not worth consider
ing. The object Of the president is to
frame cabinet consisting of material
| that he can mold. He must have men
who are willing to accept all their or
| ders from him. The initiative in all
matter Of legislation and administra-
ton must come from the White house
Hence it is the part of wisdom to move
the members of the active kitchen cab
met to the front of the house as fas;
as possible
We have no fault to find. If the
| Republican party can find 1t in its
heart to point with pride to cabinet
in which young Mr.. Cortelyou and
young Mr.. Garfield hold portfolios, we
will try to dissemble our feelings and
refrain from weeping over that which
now suffices to make the machine
made Republican platform and chest
to pout proudly.

than they are, to exercise economy and
make suitable provision by saving for
their own declining years. To use the
age limit for retirement and to veto the
pension proposition absolutely is right
policy; and those who stand for it,
whether Republicans or Democrats, are
to be complimented.

Knickerbocker surIesquers at the Star.

Robes Kn5ckerbocker Burlesquers
constitute the attraction at the Star
this week. From the rise of the cur
tain to the finale it is an interesting
performance. The show begins with
farce entitled ''Riley's Speech" in
which John H. Reid, as an Irish poll
tician, makes a hit with timely local
puns apropos of the local election.
During the first part a speciality en-
titled THE Musical Babies" is intro
duced in which eight of the chorus in
terpolate a medley of popular airs
with bells attached to dolls.
The Olio commences with the jug
Cling Normans, a unique and inter
esting exhibition of club swinging by
five persons, two of whom are mere
children. Frank Finney, a black face
comedian, is amusing. Reid and Gill
bert are good as comedy entertainers.
The AnatoS contributed some fancy
dancing in the sketch 1.-The Professor
and the Lady" An original turn, in
which there were some jokes lately
created, were passed out by Haw-
thorn and Burt.
The last part was better than the
first, as there was action all through
it, and the scenery was picturesque.
The scene was laid in a mythical is
land in the Southern Pacific and it
gave the company an opportunity to
display versatility.
During the presentation Of 1.-THE Lit
tie Minister at the Metropolitan opera
house by Maude Adams Tuesday.
Wednesday evening and a Wednesday
matinee she will be supported by
nearly all Of her original company
Robert EdeSOn, who is now starring on
his own account, and who imperson-
ated the Little Minister" has been
succeeded by Henry Ainley, the Eng
lish actor engaged especially by Mr.
Frohman as Miss Adams leading man
Another English actor, Mr.. G. Harrison
Hunter. who was first seen in this
country with Henry Irving and later
was leading man for Olga Nethersole
is also in Miss Adams company, en-
acting the role formerly played by w
FL. Thompson. Miss Margaret Gordon
whose delineation of the French maid
created so favorable an impression
still retains her old part. Miss Gordon
earlier in the season played important
parts with Virginia Harmed.
1t appears that we are at last to have
a Viola and a Sebastian of Shake
speare's comedy, Twelfth Night" who
bear some little resemblance to each
other. Viola Allen as Viola, and James
Young as Sebastian will offer this nov
city at the Metropolitan opera house
next Thursday Friday and Saturday
night and a Saturday matinee. Miss
Allen went to great trouble to find a
performer who was of her size and
height and one who could make up
| to bear a very close resemblance to
her. Mr.. Young proved exactly what
was desired. In this case, however, il
is the actress who must look like the
man. Miss Aliens entire company has
been chosen with equal care and at
tention. Seats for this engagement
are on sale today.

At St. Paul Theaters

1t Is an interesting story of the early
colonial days that is told by "A Prince
of Tatters," which began a weeks
engagement at the Grand last night
Unlike the conventional melOdrama
that revels in all sorts of impossible
ties, reSounds with extraYagant Ian
guage and obtrudes alleged comedy
scenes that "do make the angels weep"
"A Prince of Tatters" is fairly conserv-
ative and reasonable, without being
dull and prOsy. The dialogue is sane,
the scenes designed ito provoke laugh
ter probable, and the story essentially
romantic. 1t would be captious to
point out defects that are not glaring in
a play which gives such general salts
faction to theater full of people.
Al H. Wilson, for whom the play
is vehicle, is popular in these parts.
He is fortunate in having secured so
pleasing a medium. Mr.. Wilson mas
way with him that the people like.
His celebrity of speech and action pre-
vents the scenes from dragging, his
personality is agreeable, and his singing
sufficiently melOdiouS to excite genuine
applause. Mr.. Wilson has some new
songs, which were received with favor.
To his credit be it said, he makes no
pretentious efforts to sing notes be-
yond the range of his voice. nor does
he pull out the foftiSSimo stop to show
how loud he can sing. Instead, he uses
the pianissimo. There is betrayal of
self-consciousness on Mr. Wilson'S
part now and then. when he is looking
intently at the audience, that is to be
regretted. Otherwise he is entirely sat
isfactory.
The supporting company is quite as
competent as could be reasonably eX-
pected Miss Fannie Bloodgood, in the
eccentric role of Ann ClattercOpf, was
amusing in an original fashion. Miss
Janette Terrell, intrusted with the
character of Lady Helen, has a SYM
pathetic voice and displayed dramatic
instinct, and Miss Florence Slower was
adequate to the role of Lady Bellemont.
Distinct individuality marked the
portrayal of Capt. John Schoonhaven
by James Beyins. The others We're
acceptable. F. G. H.
