SeekinS Better Men on R0ilU0Ys

RAILROAD managers throughout the country
interested in a novel experiment being made by
President Underwood of the Erie railroad, IN the
of employment bureau in securing suitable
men for railroad service. The new department has
just been introduced, and W. @. Hayes has been ap-
pointed superintendent. The plan on which the
bureau will be conducted has not been fully worked
out but it is the intention to place the general super
vision of the employment of in several branches
of the directly in charge of the employment
bureau The applicant for position will be re-
quired to pass the most rigid verbal examination,
and submit the necessary references if the position
he seeks is of responsibility It is hoped by the
officials that through the medium of the bureau, not
only the standard of efficiency will be raised, but
that the mental plane Of the employees will be
higher
This is a commendable move Such system,
as outlined by President Underwood, should be in
troduced by every railroad in the country. It is
business methods applied to branch of the service
which has long been neglected. When this new
department. gets beyond the experimental stage it
will not only prove economical to the company but
it will help to quiet the nerves of the travelling
public. The number of wrecks which have occurred
this year, has shaken public confidence to alarm
ing extent. Thousands of people have refused to
travel because of these accidents This innovation,
and several safety appliances which railroad COM
panies are installing, will cause Europeans to call
America something more appropriate than "The
Land of Disasters"

there are in detention the less there the out
side. AS the percentage in the former increases I'll
adds to the safety Of the citizen.
This very logical conclusion It explodes
the theory about crime being on the increase 1t is
reasonable to suppose that if there increase of
inmates in our penitentiares there must be de-
crease in the number of criminals at large. While
there is no means of ascertaining the number of
those at large it must be admitted that it no small
figure It is true all criminals are not in the peni-
Tertiary. It is also true that all criminals who are
apprehended are not convicted. If they were there
would be marked increase of those in detention
However this would not necessarily mean an in
in crime. 1t is merely transferring them from
one place to another.
Mr. Smith may be wrong in his carefully drawn
deductions. Nevertheless his hypothesis is so SIM
pie that child can understand it, It is not neces
sary for man to be in prison before considering
him criminal His occupation establishes that
fact beyond doubt.

entitled els Crime increasingly" He believes that
crime is not increasing To support his reasoning
he advances some cogent reasons for, what many
suppose, this apparent increase of crime. He be-
lieves that the fduciary relations are higher than
formerly and that there is as much honesty abroad
today as there ever was. The point upon which he

AMONG certain writer's, painters and sculptors
the claim has often been made that Americans are
entirely too prudish in their views as to what con-
sttutes art and that which is considered immoral
These profound critics generally foreigners They
belong to that class which is closely allied with the
French and italian schools Of art which fourished
before the renaissance These critics seem to forget
that the ideals of the Parisans not the ideals of
the American people, Their adverse criticism
against our overnice distinctions as to the propri-
cites of life, unworthy of serious consideration
"Timid bourgeois and uncultured Puritans'' are
some Of the choice ep1thets hurled across the Allan
tic; and all this because the ban against immoral
paintings and suggestive works of sculpture was
proclaimed. Americans do not object to the nude in
art. The beautiful appeals to them strongly it
does to any other race of people. It is only that
halo of vulgarity with which they crown their So
called priceless art, which Objectionable to Amer
leans These critics also say that the people of this
country lack cultivation and oversensitive in
cepting the higher life This statement is rather
puere. In fact it should be accepted asa compli-
ment, and encourage those who stand for respecta-
bllity in art, literature, and the drama.
French literature and art will never be popular
in this country until It's suggestveness is expurged
This feature is too dstress1ngy saacous to appeal
to very large audience. It may be said to the
everlasting glory of American artists and writer's
of the past that the standards at which they aimed
did not embrace the so-called higher life of these
foreign critics. These exalted standards have been
inculcated by such brilliant essayists as Emerson
Charles Lamb, John Ruskin, and Oliver Wendell
Holmes; by such eminent poets Longfellow, and
Tennyson and by such excellent writer's of fiction as
Dickens, and Cooper Today these high ideals are
being perpetuated by William Dean Howells and
host of other frst-class writer's.
The phrase, "higher life," will crush one,
atho these seapponted critics it as their heav
lest piece of artillery against those who have object
ed to having alleged priceless art in their homes
even placed on exhibition. Purity in the home
should be held of more value than questionable art,
or even that class of literature which the average
Partisan selects as his pabulum. The criticisms of
these opponents of the "higher lfe,' amusing
instead of convincing If such writer's as Zolo,
Daudet and Paul de Kock are some of the shining
lights of this new cult known the "higher life
then no one need ask why their works are being
pressed so closely to the-garbage barrel

TRAILS TIE CHAMPION.

In capturing the amateur golf championship
of Great Britain, AR Walter J. Travis has
achieved a feat which may appear the more re-
markable the longer it is considered. 1t has
Geen an established tradition of the links that
no one could reasonably hope 10 win the highest
honors of the game who had not learned it as
boy. or even TO hold a safe place among really
first rate players Mr. Travis never had a golf
club in his hand until he had reached manhood,
and has risen from the bottom TO the top in less
than decade lie has been unquestOnably the
best amateur player in the United States for
several years. but it is doubtful if n single one
Of his most ardent admirers expected, when he
went 10 England this spring, that he would
bring back the trophy for which he had resolved
To compete, and if he himself was hopeful he
certainly led nobody TO suppose that he was
confident.
1t is evident from an examination of the
scores made the last week and from the dis
patches describing the games that Mr.. TraviSs
play was perfectly characteristic of his style.
He has never been brilliant player Of the
erratic phenomenal one day and mediocre
the next. The maChinclike equality of his per-
fornances has given him the supremacy of
American links, and now has Ovcrmastered the
British experts. Though he happens to have
made the longest drive ever measured i'm this
country, he is not I'm general long driver and
in that respect his opponents at Sandwich pretty
uniformly had the better Of him; but he seldom
is off the line from the tee, his approach shots
are accurate and his putting IS justly described
as deadly Indeed, it seems safe TO say that his
work on the greens this week has never been
surpassed. and that it chiefly accounts for his
victory. II is ratl'r amusing 10 read that Brit
ISL golf players ar deriving some soace from
the reflection that Ir. Travis was born I'm Aus.
ITALIA. The really significant facts are that he
learned the game in this country. OF which he is
n naturalizcd citizen; that he learned II after he
had reached maturity, and that he has won in
spite of the many disadvantages arising from a
strange climate and unfamiliar surroundings.
