Never in the history of the world has it been made quite so plain that mak- ing war is largely matter of dollars and cents as at present, says an ex
 change. Some days ago it was an nounced from Paris that negotiations for a new Russian external loan had been suspended because the bankers of Paris and Berlin were unwilling to further risk the money in Russian bonds, with the almost certain pros poets of further Russian defeats in Manchuria and further Russian disor- ders at home. Since then there have been daily hints from St Petersburg about what Russia might be disposed to accept as peace terms. and now comes the word from Paris that Russia
 will probably sue for peace direct to Tokio through the French minister in charge of Russian interests there. and that negotiations for the issue of tn.
 Russian loan have been resumed. Un, questionably the loan is dependent upon the peace. negotiations being opened in good faith. And it is non.
 too soon. if Russia is to save what she
 had in the far east before her drea ms of Manchuria and Korea ever began to take tangible form in action. It is reasonable to suppose that in less thai. month, if the war shall continue. Oyama will be in possession of Harbin. in which case vladivostok will fall as matter of course. being cut of by both land and sea. This would mean the retirement of the Russians to the Baikal region, leaving the laps in command of practically all of eastern Siberia. Peace or no peace. it is not likely that the Japanese would seek to follow beyond Harbin. More than one of the worlds great generals has me, his fate by penetrating too far into Russia with nothing in particular to be gained at the end of the march. Once in possession of Harbin, Japan would have all there is worth having in the Russian possessions in the fan east. command of the Amur and Sun gzri rivers. of the whole of the coast and of all the rich agricultural and mineral country that ues bstwesn.

The United States supreme court has

The United States supreme court has delivered knockout blow to the labor unions. The court, in the case of a New York law which limited the work ing day of employees in bakeries and confectionery shops to ten hours, has decided that no state had the right to place an arbitrary limit on the work ing day of those engaged in healthful occupations. This is equivalent to de- claring unconstitutional in advance the eight hour labor law which the labor unions have been beseeching congress to enact. ss'

Japanese Railway Etiquette.

When a native lady enters a Japa- nese railway carriage she slips her feet from her tiny shoes. stands upon the seat and then sits demurely with her feet doubled beneath her, says the Chi cago Tribune A moment later she lights a cigarette or her little pipe. which holds just tobacco enough to produce two good whiffs of smoke All Japanese people sit with their feet upon the seat of the car and not as Europeans do. When the ticket col lector. attired in blue uniform. enters the carriage he removes his cap and twice bows politely. He repeats the bow as he comes to each passenger to collect the tickets from them

HARMLESS NOISE, AT LAST.
Physics PrOfessor's Cannon I'm

Physics Professor's Cannon That
 Won't Destroy the Boy.
 The casualties of Fourth of July have inspired Professor William Stoddard Franklin, head of the physics depart ment at Lehigh university, to invent a toy cannon which will make as much noise as the death engine operated with powder, but do no damage, says a special dispatch from Wilkesbarre. Pa, to the New York World.
 The harmless cannon is operated on the principle of the gas engine. An electric spark ignites the gas and air, causing a loud explosion; hurls a cork shell and emits flame, which is of such a low temperature. however, that 1t does not even scorch tissue paper Professor Franklin says that the cost of 5000 shots is not more than 5 cents.

Rev. C. L. Organ of Lake City Has Organixed Two Brass Bands Among Members of His Church-BOys Have 'King's Army"-He Publishes .
 Weekly Religious Paper Which
 Has Q Large Circulation.
 Believing that a church should pro- vide both amusement and employment to it's members in addition to spiritual instruction, Rev. c. l.. Organ, pastor of the Woodlawn Church of Christ at Lake City, Ia, has organized reli- gious institution which has no parallel in the state of Iowa, says the Lake City correspondent of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
 So vigorously has Rev. Organ stated his views that he already has organ ized two brass bands, has organized four societies in which young people find all kinds of entertainment, has es- tablished a church newspaper with a healthy circulation and has undertak- en to promote business enterprises to give employment to members of his flock.
 Rev. Organ has been in Lake City . little over one year and in that time has increased the membership of his congregation nearly 30 per cent, while the ratio of young people has gained several times this percentage. The membership in the church when he be- gan was approximately 360. and dur ing the year 1O2 have been added.
 The first work Rev. organ did when he went to Lake City was to organize the Brotherhood of Andrew and Philip for young men who were Christians. This organizations constitution says, Tt is to interest others, for Christ and to help the members spiritually intel lectually and physically" This brother hood has a band of twenty-two pieces, which plays at all kinds of entertain ments as we'll as for those of the church. The brotherhood started with twenty members and now has forty five.
 The young women of the church have the 'Sisterhood of Mary and Martha There are ifty-fve in this society. and they have good social times and givs bazaars for the benefit of the church.

POLLING OF BIGGEST BELL.

Scheme to Honor Memories of Vet.
 erans Buried at Arlington.
 Colonel Frank Hume of Washington, who was an officer in the Confederate army, Is striving to interest the Grand Army of the Republic in scheme for the manufacture of bell which will be the largest in the world to be hung in the National cemetery at Arlington and tolled during the funeral rites of soldiers buried there, says Washing ton special to the New York Times.
 Colonel Hume has been active in this work and has addressed several of the Washington posts in favor of the prof ect, which seems to be regarded with favor by Grand Army men. The idea is to procure from the government the brass guns that will be required in the manufacture of the bell, sufficient number of which are stored at the Watervliet (N. Y.) arsenal.
 In an address delivered recently be- fore one of the Washington Grand Army posts Colonel Hume said he had been in correspondence with MT. Me neeley of the bell foundry located at Troy, x. Y.. one mile from Watervliet, who was a Federal soldier during the civil war and who explained that the project was feasible and could be car ried out at a relatively small expense.
 Mir. Meneeley wrote Colonel Hume that ''the bell should be deep toned and placed in the most conspicuous place possible. Tolled only at the interment of dead soldier, the sound of its sol emn ring would be something. once heard, never to be forgotten. Its enor- nous size would lend 1t distinction and dignity impressive even when si- lent"
