THE Baltimore and Rochester fires prove that
the freproof tall building is myth. When con-
fagraton is fairly started the steel frame skyscraper
falls prey to it as rapidly as the smaller stone
encased building Of fifty years ago. Thy skyscraper
is shell filled, in most cases, with highly infam
mable material While it continues to be the
popular style of business architecture disastrous
fires may be expected in every big city. The fire.
proof building is low stone structure with metal

Noah RABY said to be the 'oldest in the

He was 1872 years DID, Peace to his ashes! His
service was long and a long rest should be his
reward His last sixty years must have been filled
with the loneliness which is found only in the dense
crowd the terrible solitude of the busy thoroughfare
The young man filled with vitality and enthusiasm
regards long life as an unmixed blessing. The man
well along in years listens with equanimity to the
rustic of Azraers sable garments. To the former
death means parting; to the latter it is reunion In
Raby's case even the memory of early friends must
have been but a shadow

PREs1pENr JOSEPH F. SMITHS testimony before

- PRESIDENT JOSEPH f. SMITHS testimony before
the Smoot investigating committee was unsavory to
be sure. It was revolving and disgusting to de-
gree. Still it contained nothing particularly new
startling. Polygamy was charged and admitted;
but persons familiar with Mormon affairs who have
given the subject moments thought must have
known before that Mormons who were polygamists
prior to 1890 continued to be poygamsts since that
date Indeed, it about the only thing they could
do according to their lights. The plural wives
entitled to the support Of their husbands and to
the recognition of the society in which they moved
It was an unpleasant dilemma but the horn which
meant to stick to the woman the only one man
could grasp Smith and his associates could not very
we'll shirk the responsibilities Of their position after
assuming them. The best they could do just
what they say they did do-defy the law themselves
while they advised others to keep it. Theirs an
anomalous position certainly, but comprehensive
one
But in the name Of Brigham Young and all his
progeny what has the poygamy of Smith Brown
Jones got to do with the seating unseating of
Reed Smoot? With all his troubles, Smoot has but
one wife. He was elected fairly and hasn't broken
into jail since the election occurred. The Mormons
have not been disfranchised and long they go
unchaenged to the polls it is difficult to understand
why their representative may not take his seat in the
Legislative body to which he fairly elected Mr.
Smoot American citizen is at perfect liberty to
believe what he peases about the heavens above the
earth beneath or the waters under the earth. He
has the right to nourish any sociological views he
sees fit. As American citizen it is his consttu-
tional right to associate exclusively with Mexican
feas and Digger Indians if he finds their society
agreeable. Certainly he should not be disqualified
from holding Office for SO thinking and living Yet
this is just what the Protestants attempting to
do--to dsqualify him because his friends polyga-
mists. It is wholly un-American. The good people
engaged in the crusade against the Mormon church
should conine themselves to more legitimate methods
/ of fighting than those they pursuing just now.

JAPANESE of position who is willing to talk
has appeared. Mr. Heromich Shugio imperial
commissioner from Japan to the Louisiana Purchase
Exposition, in an interview granted the st. Louis
Republic, says: "You may rest assured that we
greatly appreciate the moral support of your country
In fact had we not been assured that would have
been backed up in our war with Russia by England
and the United States, never would have ventured
as far have gone. It was generally understood
among officials in Japan that only waited for the
official sanction from England and the United
States, and when that word had been received we
fired the shot"
The truth of this statement is supported by
facts. It is what many people have believed from
the first and is interesting merely because OF
the semi-ofical source whence it comes England
is almost as much concerned the outcome of the
war as Japan herself; her neutrality is the neu-

"A company has been organized
in Cuba to manufacture alcohol
from pineapples.
It is said that about six hundred
OF the immigrants landed in New
York during the past six months
have become public charges.
A novel experiment is now being
made at boys school in Prone,
Quebec, with q view to insure more
regular attendance on the part of
the scholars. A few weeks ago
the managers, as they are called
there, consented to the master
putting into force a scheme under
which a half-holiday should be
granted whenever the percentage
attendance in each four successive
weeks reaches "a. For the follow
ing four weeks the attendance is
said to have been 94.4, 94.6, 94.6
and 95.3 per cent as against about
go per cent before the scheme was
put into operation. This looks
like good thing. Why not push
it along?
When we come to think of it,
doesn't it seem strange that we
build ourselves anew every seven
years, that the John Smith we
knew fifteen or twenty years ago
has developed in three John
Smiths, each with new head, new
body and limbs, with no effort on
his part and even without his
knowledge or consent? But some
Of the lower animals and insects
beat us all to pieces in these trans
formation acts. It is said that
spiders and crabs have no difficulty
in replacing limbs which have
been lost in battle. According to
a writer in the London Mail you
can shut up in a box a dark spider
with seven legs, leaving him there
over night, and the next day you
will find two spiders, one dark and
the other white-one with eight
legs and the other with seven, the
captive having changed his clothes
and grown new leg during the
night.

subject, "You have a lame leg,

"You have a toothache," the SUBJ

his cheek and complains of the
pain in his tooth. A suggestion
from the hypnotist that the pain
has been removed and the subject
feels no more pain. When the

In AN address delivered at Evanston, ILL.,, Mr.. F.
Emory Lyon superintendent OF the Central Howard
Association said in part:
sThere are great many forces at work in the
social organism under which mans usual tendencies
are often encouraged and this account he is not
always to be held strictly responsible Conditions in
our Southern prisons today in many such as
to cast great dshonor upon the authorities who
responsible for them.
"There is a prison in Atlanta Ga, where 300
and women are confined together and herded
like beasts, chained to posts in the daytime and
chained to their cots at night
In America conditions are improving, especially
in the Middle West but there is still great deal to
be accomplished. There is less of political influence
in the management of PRISONS but still enough to
make the conditions disgrace to civilization
"The greatest Of the problems of prison reform
is that which arises after the has been turned
out again upon the world It is with this problem
that this association most concerns ITSELF
LAST year $50 turned out OF the prisons of
Illinois were cared for by this organization and many
of them put into positions of responsibility and trust
Society is to blame for criminality."
Even if one does not subscribe to all of Mr.
Lyons views, one can find food for thought in the
foregoing sentences.
