Paris, Oct. 21.-The agitation by the
German press on the retrospective de-
tails of the Moroccan incident has been
Gained by want Of material. On one
side the English papers denied Eng
land IS intention to intervene in case OF
aggression by Germany against France;
on the other side the French govern
ment caused to be denied en- bloc all
From these long discussions, which
revealed the animosity Of one part of
German opinion regarding France, there
have emerged two impressions. The
first of these is that there is undeniable
rivalry between Germany and England.
This rivalry is due to- Germany S mari
time efforts, the logical result Of which
has been to impel the German emperor
to give attention to matters beyond the
seas, thereby coming in conflict with
England, and under these circumstances
it was natural that England should
foresee the possibility Of German at
ton to prevent this.
Guarantee Of Peace.
Such sentiment, however, could not
be Interpreted as hostile act; it was
rather a guarantee Of mutual peace, as
England's good faith foreshadows only
one eventuality which Germany fears
The moment that Germany shows that
she has not warlike intentions, Eng
lands projects will be no longer pos
sible of being realized.
Moreover, this is the opinion which
seems finally to have been reached in
London and Berlin, where calm SEN
timent now prevails. ...S
The second impression is that GER
tain French minister did not hesitate
in order to satisfy his hatreds, to VIC
late professional secrets in relation to
what took place in q cabinet meet
ing: It was deplorable thig and one
plete extinction for all time Of this
statesman IS political career.
Small Bduget Balance. N
The chamber which meets. the last
Of this, month will have on it's hands
the general report on the budget fol-
1906, prepared by M. Baudin. The
budget is presented as followsc Re
ceipts, $40, liz, 6ll; expenses, $40,
081,792, thus showing nominal, al
most imperceptible balance Of $3O,827
The budgete commission Is not en-
secretary Of the commission, even ques
tions their accuracy, maintaining that
certain expenditures are minimizec
and that among the receipts are sums
coming not from the taxes, but from
debt. He adds thatth commission
leaves to the government the respon
sibility Of its financial methods.
In this there is an oversight Of par
liamentary traditions and practically
Of methods, as it is the government
which proposes the budget, but it il
the chamber which votes it, and in ap
proving it the chamber assumes re
sponsibility of which the government
is then discharged.

SAFETY ON our RAIL WAYS.
Something to Be Said for Them in Com.
perison with English Roads.

Something to BE Said for Them in Com
parison with English Roads.
While no passengers were killed on
the $4,000 miles Of English rails in
1901, 1t was not because there were no
accidents, says writer in Public Opin-
ion. In that happy year passenger
trains got together fifty-five times and
suffered sixty-five derailments. Also
there were twenty-nine collisions with
buffer-stops and 476' persons were in
1ured in train accidents. For the same
year, upon $4,000 miles of American
line, moving 100000 people, only nine
lives were lost, which shows that we
are also lucky-in spots.
Almost every American who can
read has read about the English rail-
ways, with $4,000 miles of road, as
against our 100000, upon which no one
was killed in 1901, but not many of you
know that the last British report
shows that there were 1866 passengers
killed and 1885 injured, $50 other per-
sons killed and 1888 injured during the
year ending Dec. 81, 1903. The grand
total of 1,242 killed and 1857 injured
you have not seen mentioned in any
American magazine or newspaper, not
even by the secretary Of the Interstate
Commerce Commission who appears
to like long lists of "killed"
In a single station in Boston 1865
train movements are made from dawn
to dawn. An American locomotive
shuts Off at the sight of danger with
one movement Of a throttle lever
quick as pistol shot. An English
driver closes his valves by grinding
wheel like an old-fashioned hand
brake. presume 80 per cent of our
cars are equipped with quick-acting air
brakes, while like percentage of En-
glish carriages still carry the slow
moving vacuum brake An English
driver drove his engine into the bump
Ing posts in a station, slaughtering six
teen persons. Our Westinghouse air
brake would have saved these lives,
even though the absent-minded beggar
ran wild almost to the last rail length.
SO light and easily held are the En-
glish cars.

The child Of six, worn out at last
With romping, romping through the
day, 5
Upon his mothers lap falls fast
Asleep and dreams again Of play
Until a fairy honey bee
Comes browsing to him from the void,
Play, baby, while the fun is free
Some day you may be growing old"
Ehe lad Of twenty who has known
A certain puppy love affair
Bighs like man who has outgrown
The world and all its shallow glare;
he sees himself stale, tired, blase,
Sick of ambition, honors, gold,
And murmurs In careless way,
think I'll soon be growing old"
The man of forty, as the hair
Proves sorry traitor to his skull,
Strokes lovingly the spaces bare
And thinks of weighty things and dull;
OF some remotely distant year
When bones shall creak on hinges cold,
Hemarking more In grief than fear,
Some day l shall be growing old"
1he granddad, chewing at his gums,
His eighty years already gone,
TWirls his stout stick between his thumbs
And sees the old world rolling on;
Low in the ashes of his days
The fires of life their ardor hold.
How time does march along!w he says.

City Furnishes Dent,ats.

Municipal dentists are appointed
and paid by many Of the large towns
and cities Of Germany, says the New
York Tribune. Is Strasburg, for ex-
ample, 1896 children were examined
that year, 800 teeth were filed and
2,912 extracted.
The method of work is simple. The
teacher brings his class to the dentist,
who examines each mouth quickly and
marks on a card each child has
brought whether treatment Is neces-
sary. If so, the child must come again
on Saturday. Russia is also Joining
in this movement and has already
fitted up nine such institutions In st.
Petersburg.
And why not, or rather, why 50 late
in coming, one might ask. If it is true
that, generally speaking, good teeth
are necessary to good health and long
life, and If also, a large and growing
proportion of citizens have not good
teeth, then 1t follows that the fact Is
one Of public concern. Is it not, for
instance, Of as much Importance to the
community that workmen should have
good masticatlng and digesting powers
as that there should be $2O,OOO,OOO city
halls, public parks, expositions, etc.
This little. or large, realization of pre-
ventive medicine has so far got into
our American minds that we have or
dered the soldiers teeth to be attend
ed to and his governmental service by
50 much enhanced. But the soldier Is
at last paid by the civil worker and as
to his teeth and service we are entirely
Indifferent.
