there was naught now but grim
discipline as they waited to

A Chance For Story Tellers.

Still the cry goes up from the pub
fishers that there is a dearth of short
stories in the market A glance at
some of the periodicals of the day
gives tangible evidence that there is
some sort of a shortage affecting the
tables of contents. 1t is not SO easy
as it looks to write good short story
even one cas- good as some that get
printed"
Lectures to aspiring young authors
upon the kind of story to write are use
less. Each aspirant for the publishers
check and literary fame will write the
kind of story that is in him or her, and
that, by the way, is just the kind and
the only kind wanted by publisher or
reader.
The way of writing a story, or Of
putting, is subject to variations, and
in that phase Of authorship the begin
ner has everything to learn. 1t is not
always best, perhaps never, to set out
to write story as a maiden effort in
literature Expression is the art to be
mastered, and important features Of
that art are often mastered by fugitive
writing for the newspapers, for friend
" correspondents and for readings be-
fore literary gatherings. A good look
ing bunch of manuscript wins half the
battle by creating a good impression
offhand. It is certain to be read by
the editor, and for that the beginner
ought to be grateful.

The conversion of the dOwager en-
press of China to Christian Science, il
true, as reported, does not necessarily
promise a revolution in Celestial phi
losophy or ethics. Rulers since the
time Of Constantine have followed that
monarch's example and embraced a
new faith from public policy. Con-
stantine was not baptized until he was
on his deathbed; hence his personal
example was not vivifyins force for
the spread Of the Christian religion
during his life But the Manchu rul-
ers of China have succeeded in holding
to the throne by leaving the Chinese to
their old faiths and practices. Doubt
less the strong headed woman now in
power will follow in the footsteps OF
her predecessors and let well enough
nlone.

Work and Play at College.

oSAAOoOs
Although this is a college booming
age, the meaning Of college career
seems to be an unsettled question.
President Thwing of the Western Re-
serve university is really found to be
on the defensive while suggesting in
the North American Review that col
lege course should be largely matter
Of lectures, lessons, library and labora-
tory. He says: Going to college and
working little is good; going to college
and working much is better, very good.
The college student should, indeed, be
other than a student. But he should
at least be a student and hard one
too
An inside view Of college life which
now and then leaks out is that only
those students who work their way are
really benefited by college career. OF
course the man who works his way and
gets the worth of his time and effort
cannot do much besides work. The
much talked up social life Of the place
cannot mean anything to him. If he
gets all that there is worth while sole
~ by hard work, those who skip the
hard work naturally come out with a
poor showing in valuable results.

Exporting Civilization.

Recently Swedish traveller Of SUN.
tlent Importance at home to be able to
ADDRESS advice to the king wrote TO
the sovereign the results of his observa.
tons in the belt of American states
where immigrants from Sweden and
Norway have located in large numbers.
The communication is noteworthy be-
cause it advises the home government
to encourage emigration to the United
States in order that the influences of
our civilization may be felt on the
Scandinavian peninsula That is equal
to saying that the new world can teach
the old. The idea is not confined to the
Swedish observer, for an Italian of
rank has said the same of Italian emf.
grants. Those who return, he says
and many Of his countrymen do 20
back to sunny Italy-are better citizens
by reason Of the stay in America.
If the immigrant is so open to prog
ress as to turn and teach the less for
tunate Of his countrymen who cannot
take object lessons on the spot he ought
to be worth the close acquaintance of
his native neighbors even in his raw
stage. The laws and regulations of
the United States have been favorable
to immigrants to the point of laxity.
and the politicians have posed with
open arms on the threshold of the
open door," Socially. however, the
hand Of fellowship or even Of welcome
has not been freely extended.
The idea that the immigrants are the
"scum Of Europe" has been close to the
truth in the past and may be tenable
today. First impressions are every.
thing, and appearances are dead against
the individual and the group fresh from
the steerage and the emigrant train.
Yet many of them have forgotten more
than their new neighbors ever knew
about tapping the wealth springs of
nature 1t is not that they have failed
in the fatherland that they come here,
but because the fatherland has failed.
Having exhausted every art and expe-
dent for bringing water from the ma
tive rock, what they don't know Of the
new situation they can pick up in one
season if they've not already been
coached by the friends who bid them
over to this land of promise The fact
that they had the nerve to venture thus
tiicate Of character that ought to pass
current anywhere

The Best Evidence In Criminal Trials.
Very many people are honestly tena-
cious in the opinion that circumstan-
tial evidence is never strong enough to
warrant capital punishment. On this
point one Of England's greatest crimi-
nal judges, Sir Henry Hawkins, writes
as follows in book Of legal reminis-
cences recently published:
Let me say a word about circumstantial
evidence. Some writers have spoken of it
as a kind of dangerous innovation" In our
criminal procedure. 1t is almost the only
evidence that Is obtainable in all great
crimes and it is the best and most reli-
able. / have witnessed many great trials
for murder, but do not remember one
where there was an eyewitness to the
deed. How Is 1t possible, then, to bring
home the charge to the culprit unless you
rely on circumstartial evidence? Circum-
stantial evidence is the evidence OF cir
cumstances-facts that speak for them
selves and that cannot be contradicted.
Circumstances have no motive to deceive.
while human testimony is too often the
product of every kind Of motive.
Opponents of circumstantial evidence
hold that circumstances may be very
clear against an accused person and
vet fall short of the absolute proof
which alone should warrant the ex-
IRENE penalty. Extraordinary cases
have been cited to support this view.
On the other hand, alleged eyewit-
nesses have been known to retract their
statements after a conviction and even
after executions; hence. as Judge Haw-
kins intimates, human nature may be
less worthy of credence than fact.

Carnegie has endowed public libraries
in every state and territory in the
Union excepting Rhode Island, Mis-

and Alaska According to statistics
gathered by Mr. Horace White, New
York is the most highly blessed Of all.
and So per cent of the people OF the
state may consult the Carnegie volumes
If they choose AS an incentive to use
these advantages it might be well for
professional and other well read people
to refer the young to the libraries in
stead of answering offhand questions
which can be solved by delving In
books. knowledge easily gained Is
quickly forgotten.

The Greed of the Russian Peasantry.

The Greed Of the Russian Peasantry.
Catharine Breshkovsky, a Russian
philanthropist and revolutionist, sum-
marizes the economic and social creed
Of the Russian peasantry as follows:
The Russian peasants say that justice
Cor Cod demands that all human beings
should be happy; that they shall have
means of enjoying life without doing evil
to others and without being oppressed by
them. But beyond this Russian peasants
are bold enough to believe that they know
not only what constitutes truth, but also
the means Of putting it in practice here on
earth. They say, for instance, that a
good God has created man; that he gave
man with life the right to enjoy all that is
created by him for the benefit of man
kind. So the land, with all its riches
forests and streams. all this belongs to all
of us because it is the work of God.
This is the economic aspect of truth to
the Russian peasants. AS to the moral
side, 1t consists in never doing evil to
ones neighbor and in aiding him in his
toll. Daily toll does not brighten the Rus
sian laborer: he loves the land and values
his work. which makes his life pleasanter
and more intelligent This is the real
Russian peasant.
w Lille lllc dDONc Is du ULTRA pdI tlSdu
and optimistic view, it nevertheless
agrees in essentials with what is al
ready believed Of the masses of Russia.
Considering the immense preponder-
ance of the peasantry in the population,
If they ever get the chance Of putting
their principles into general practice
the world may yet turn to the east for
a glimpse of the first social millennium.
