Russian and japanese armies are prac-

the exception that the Japanese are
closer to Liaoyang, on the south, than
they then were.

GOD HELP THE COURT"

Az amusing story IS told Of local

changed one word in the announcement
which he had been making for many
years
When the crier mad sung out in SON
orous voice Oyer. Oyer" and instead
OF closing the call with the words and

help this honorable court and these
United States"
Several persons who were in the court
room noticed the mistake made by the
crier. VINO became very indignant at the
laughter which was INDUCED In by many.
The mistake made by the crier was not
noticed by the presiding judge. SO at
the close OF the session of the court he
called his clerk to him and asked what
was the cause Of the merriment

Formalitu and InformaIitu.
Is a Republic Bound TO Be Informal in
Official Life?

1t seems quite unnecessary to make
the kind of fuss that some newspapers
are making over the fact that Gov
ernor Taft, arriving IN Washington
on Wednesday, was escorted from the
station by a troop of the Fifteenth
Cavalry 1t was said by one eager
critic Of these proceedings that they
dazzled Governor Taft, and made
Washington SIT up and gasp. 1t is
doubtful, however, if one per cent of
the population Of Washington knew
anything about it till they read it in
the papers, and if Governor Taft
needed blue speetaeles to enable him
to endure the blaze Of gold lace on the
uniforms of General Chaffee and the
other officers who met him he has not
said anything that would indicate the
fact, nor has he been known to con
suit an oeulist.
An escort Of one troop Of cavalry
and few officers and officials ought
not to turn the head of even newly
appointed Secretary of War, and
there is every reason to suppose that
tie head OF Governor Taft is of the
right kind and screwed on tight.
There appears to be an impression, OF
q theory, or something, in the minds
of some people in this country that
anything approaching formality is I'M
becoming a republic, and this idea Is
industrOusly circulated about election
time. II would be all right, of course,
for candidate for the Presidency to
be escorted all around town by brass
band playing "See, the Conquering
Hero Comes" and all the political
clubs of his following, armed with
umbrellas and canes, to say nothing Of
cher demonstrations and all this
while he is not even certain Of being
elected. After he Is elected, also, he
may be treated with great show of re-
spect, and hedged about with faithful
henchmen, SO that nobody can get al
any more Of him than his right hand
which is expected to be in good atil-
ictie condition for shaking purposes.
But when he is President he Is expect
ed to bid farewell To all formality and
he accessible 10 everybody. He mus;
be at the service of sightseers, to
whom he Is as much an object of Gu
Iicsity as any of the animals in the

Bryan a BoU Again.
His Advent at a Princeton and Yale
Reception in New York.

a new Bryan story has come to
light, Illuminated, in fact, by the rays
of the Sum-, which shines for all.
We are told that Mr.. Bryan appeared
quite Unexpectedly at reception
gwen by the Princeton Club, to tine
Aale Club. The boys cheered him,
and then they put him up on the table
and called for a speech.
There is a prevalent impression
that Mr.. Bryan can always talk, on
any subject, before any audience.
This is not quite true-it is almost
true, but not quite. There is a Water
Ice for every eonqueror, and Mr.. Bry-
al. was up IN the clouds of tobacco
smoke trying to get the smoke out Of
Els throat long enough to begin. He
asked for a glass of water. A glass
Cf water Is hard to find at a college
cub on reception night. That made
alether delay. Then he began u
speak.
1t IS conceivable that he was trying
to frame his speech SO that it would
not offend his adorers in the corn bell,
end would not, on the other hand,
cause the boys in his audience to throw
beer mugs at him. Beer mugs are
heavy, and college boys can aim fairly
we'll At any rate, he did not speak
long. He said that brevity was the
soul of wit, and told the boys, in eff
feet, not TO smoke or drink. and not
tcexpeet to attain perfection. Some
COW or other they failed to see the
amor Of that. Then he said he want
&c his son TO have college education
even if he were to dig in a ditch all
lis,hfe. The boys failed to see any
thing humorous about digging IN 8
ditch, or being ditched in any other
way. for that matter. Then he
stepped down.
Comparisons are odious, but Nh
Roosevelt Is a Harvard man. Had be
been kidnapped and hauled into a col
lege boys reception, what sort of a
speech would he have made? There
are those who think they know.
