Although the suggestion of a pa

weight of an offer by the Japanese

The failure of these direct negotiations

Foreign Secretary LansdoWn's plea
for arbitration yesterday evening at
the Guild hall banquet is taken here
to be a pointed suggestion to the
United States and France that the
time is approaching when the powers
must take soma action. 1t can be
definitely stated that Lord Lansdowne
made his speech with full knowledge
that Japanese will not resent a prop
osition looking to peace from the
three powers, the United States.
France and Great Britain. There is
a definite impression here that the in
itiative VIII come from President
Roosevelt, though the action would be
joint.
In an interview regarding the fore
going Baron Hayashi, the Japanese
minister says:
II would not be surprised to see the
three powers named, or two of them,
take the action suggested. Exactly
upon what basis of a settlement peace
could be secured, it is at present i'm
possible to see, but there is not the
slightest doubt that combined repre-
sentations. especially if led by Pres
ident Roosevelt would have a far
reaching result between the two coun-
tries, one of which was thoroughly
defeated. 1t is comparatively easy to
make peace in this case, as neither
side is thoroughly defeated yet. The
prospects for the success of the
friendly intervention have vastly in
creased. Since the commencement Of
the war the two nations now respect
each other to a degree never dreamed
before they met in battle. That mu-
tual respect is the most hopeful fac
tor for peace. Japan does not want
to go on fighting forever. Yet, even

AN ELEPHANT TRAIT.
The Animal While Busy Will Never
Injure n Person.

4AS AAAuak "hIAe BUSY Will Never
In5ure q Person.
can elephant never Injuries a person
when it is busy" says an animal train,
er with big circus. 'It may sound
strange, but there is not a case on rec
ord of one getting ugly when it was
performing or working. The reason,
think, is that the elephant is an animal
of one idea-that is, it can think of
only one thing at time.
When you put an elephant at work
it gives its whole attention to its task.
Great power of concentration? No
just inability to think of two things at
once. When 1t gets busy it takes lot
to distract its attention, and 1t never
stops to think about a private griev-
ance. If we start horse or a dog do
ing trick we can't leave it for a min
ute or it will loaf or stop work alto
gether, but it is different with an ele-
phant. Once get 1t started, either alone
or with others, and 1t will go through
with its turn without another word.
1t is absorbed In its work.
"rhat same trait take it. is what
makes an elephant such q vicious ami
NAL when 1t gets ugly. 1t can think of
nothing but what has made it angry,
and it will not stop until it has torn
something to pieces. Oh, yes, an ele-
phant can carry grudge. 1t never for
gets an injury, and it waits its chance
to get even, but when it is busy it for
gets the tricks that have been played
on it. 1t is only when it has nothing
to do that it gets to brooding over its
troubles. Human, eh? Well, have
known folk with that sort of disposi-
ton"

No Quarter.

A farmer tells of an old Irishman in
his employ whom he once permitted to
make use of certain land for farming
purposes on condition that Pat should
give him one-fourth of the crop he
raised. At the harvesting of the crop
the farmer was amazed to find the
Irishman had not kept his part of the
agreement, for while he hauled away
three wagon loads of produce he had
not sent single load to his masters
barn. The farmer called Pats atten-
ton to the fact that he had taken the
entire crop, asking: Nov, how's that,
Pat? Wasn't to receive a fourth of
the cropT "You was, sir; you was,"
excitedly exclaimed the Irishman, "but
there's only three loads, sir; only three
loads"
