1.-THE REPUBLIC
Is PEACE
From the New York World:

From the New York World:
The people Of Panama have had the
reputation of being shrewd, business
like folk ever since they instituted 4
get-rich-quick revolution and induced
the administration to scare Columbia
into submission. By that one stroke
Of business they acquired independence,
10000, 900 of good American money and
other highly desirable blessings of civ
ilization.
But this did not mark the boundar-
les of their commercial acuteness. They
have opened an office in New York and
have 100000 to loan on Manhattan
real estate at current rates of interest.
Now, 100000 in the treasury Of a Cen
trail American republic is a daily incen-
tive to new revolutions. but s6OO0,OO0 in
New York mortgages spells peace Only
the interest is available. and that would
not pay the cost of a revolution
Republican government may be a
half-hearted experiment in some Of the
countries to the south of us, but Pana-
ma seems to be as stable as a trust
company and paying daily dividends on
the bank balances of independence.

SECTION FOREMAN'S
GALLANT DEATH
From the Philadelphia Press:

From the Philadelphia Press:
Hendley Jones, Of Georgia, was q
section foreman in the employ Of the
Seaboard Air Line. One night last
week he was riding on handcar near
Renfroes, Stewart county, Ca, in the
discharge OF his dull duties. Three
other men were with him, climbing a
heavy grade. Up to that moment all
four graded together. There dashed
around a curve ahead of them an ex-
ira freight, heavily laden and rushing
down upon Them grade and steam to-
gether.
The three other men jumped to safe
ty. They would no doubt defend their
action by quoting the old axiom about
self preservation being the first law
OF nature. But Jones did not depend
upon axioms to justify his law of con.
duct; he was the sort Of man who rec
koned by acts. So he stayed where he
was.
It was a time when a fraction Of a
second was life. Jones saw this, and
saw also that to stop the train was i'm
possible. There was, in his concep-
tion only one thing for him to do and
that was to save the crew Of the freight
at the probable cost OF his own life
That he did. Calmly, but rapidly he
stopped the handcar and threw it from
the track-and the train rushed by I'M
harmed over his dead body.
Jones left wife and two little child
rem. Some men would have pleaded
that they must remain alive, at the
cost of the lives of others, for the sake
Of their families. But Hendley Jones
did his duty and left his wife and chill
dren a fathers memory Of whose end
they could be proud.
'He5only did his 'duty?'' Is the per-
Torrance Of ones duty so commonplace
thing that we may regard it lightly:
One Of the most famous OF Russian au-
thors once wrote a story. intended tc
show how Russians die, and. he. showed
that they met death: with brute apa:
+ Hendley Jones died like an Ameri
can.
