Public Fault-Findinu,

The ability to point out with dis
agreeable clearness social evils and
public perils is not alone enough to en-
title justly man to any great amount
OF public esteem. Cassandras in
breeches or petticoats are of no more
real service today than in the heroic
age, and the miracle about the lady
herself was no so much that the Greeks
paid no attention to her forebodings
and warnings, but that some impa-
tient hero who had work to do did not
wiring her dismal neck.
There has never been a time when
our country has needed to have ideals
of service made more fresh and attrac-
tiv, or when the real work of the
world, done by its sane, healthy and
kind-hearted workers, needed greater
recognition. 1t is the good rather than
the bad in us which needs encourage
ment and exposure. and if 1t once finds
work to do, the bad in us will be far
less noticeable or troublesome. 1t is a
poor gardener who devotes too much
time to the weeds at the expense of
the vegetables ard howers.-Atlantic
Monthly.

Bishop Scores Divorce
Neglect Of clergymen Causes Much Of II Q
Misery OF Married Life

Against divorce, which he termed
legalized polygamy, the Right Rev
w. c. Doane, Bishop of Albany
diocese, made an eloquent plea to
the Interchurch Federation at Car
negie hall recently.
1--WE are confronted aud con-
founded in our day and in our land,'
he said, with a condition of things
about this question which discredits
our country, dishonors Our Chris
tianity, disgraces our manhood and
our womanhood, in the unparal-
leied frequency and the unlimited
facility of divorce. Against this
hideous and horrible infection the
Christian church under whatever
name, must stand together as one.
Here is the place not for federation
only, or combination, or co-opera-
tion, but of absolute, impregnable
unity, and the place to begin is not
in the Legislature or in the divorce
courts, but in the teaching of the
pulpit, the insistence of the minis
try, and the influence of Christian
manhood and womanhood for the
solemnity and sacredness Of
marriage.
THE hastiness and thoughtless-
ness of men and women, who are
really boys and girls, in betrothals,
mere impulse with a frothy senti-
ment or foul passion; the CONNER
cial management of matchmaking
for place, for title, for money; the
careless and criminal neglect of
clergymen to find out the condition
and circumstances of persons COM
ing to them for marriage, are at the
bottom of the misery of SO much
married life to-day.
And as one studies the sur
roundings of what is called a we'd
ding in our time, one cannot but
deplore the irreverent confusion
and display which browns the re
ligiousuess and disturbs the digni-
ty of the service itself, and the vul-
gar violation of the modesty and
privacy which belong to the en-
trance on this estate with the
horseplay of placarded trunks and
labelled carriages and railway trains
and stations crowded with noisy
outsiders and reeking with pelted
rice"
Bishop Doane spoke of clubs,
woman suffrage and flat houses as
enemies of family lite. The COM
plants of poor servants" he said,
"can be traced further back, to
poorer masters and mistresses."

WHEN HEAT is CONFINED.
Experiments Prove Electric Lonps
Often Cause Fircs.

Incandescent electric lights have
caused many fires because the neat
generated by item becomes intense
when confined Tncy are, therefore,
dangerous in tac-e coal mines wneIe
they have displaced Other lorM3 Ot
lamps. A writer says: Among min
ers, where the Underground workings
are lighted by electric iacandescent
lamps, there is often a tendency to be
careless in the handling OF the lamps.
AS the light is not naked 1t is consid-
cred that the lamps may be laid down
anywhere without fear or danger.
Some experiments that have been car
ried out in England, however prove
the fallacy of this contention and show
that an incandescent electric lamp ia
equally as dangerous if not properly
handled as a naked light.
Investigations of H. Hall one of
the British government inspectors of
coal mines, showed that when 16-
candle power lamp was covered with
coal dust the generation of heat was
so rapid that within four minutes n
temperature of 450 degrees Fahrenheit
was attained and the bulb burst. His
Investigations also showed that when
the heat had risen to a certain point
evidences of spontaneous combustion
developed and, although the lamp was
then removed from the coal. heat, gem
Grafton still continued and finally the
coal burst into flame.

The announcement of the press
dispatches that the Isle of Pines
had seeded from Cuba and was
applying for admission as a terri
tory leaves the State Department
with smaller Panama embroglio
on its hands. 1t is understood that
the situation will be met by the as
sertion that the Isle OF Pines was
never anything but American terri
tory and that 1t will naturally rest
on the same basis as Porto Rico
and the Philippines. That will be
all that the residents of the island
want, and Cuba is too busy at
home at the present moment to Of,
fer any marked objection to the ar.
rangement. Thus everyone ought
to be happy.

Where crasshoppers Are Popular.

There is a regular business in Italy
of making little wire cages for grass
hoppers. The insect is regarded as
lucky and if one can be kept alive in
the cage for a month it is believed the
year will be prosperous. The supersti-
ton arose from this incident: A car
dinal of the Medici family invited a
bishop to dine with him in his garden.
The cardinal handed the bishop glass
of wine A grasshopper fell from a
tree into the wine and the bishop did
not drink it, The wine was afterward
found to have been poisoned,

Secretary Root mas taken a firm
stand against interfering with the
Jewish question in Russia. Con.
siderable pressure has been brought
to bear on both him and the Presi-
dent to have them offer some inter
national advice on the subject.
But the question is very delicate
one for another nation to interfere
with, and the stand taken by the
administration is undoubtedly a
wise one as nte:ference would do
more harm than good just at this
stage.

Electro Magnets.

The familiar horseshoe magnet is
made of highly tempered steel and
magnetized so that one end IL a north
pole, the other a SOUTH, or perhaps
more commonly known as a negative
and a positive. Once magnetiZed it
Is always magnetic unless the power
is drawn from it by exposure to in
tense heat. An electro-magnet, how
ever, can be made from any scrap Of
soft iron, from piece of ordinary tel
egraph wire to gigantic iron shaft.
When current of electricity passes
through an insulated wire coiled about
soft iron object, such as a nail, a
bolt or a rod. that object becomes a
magnet as long as a current of electric
ity is passing through the coils of wire
or helix. coil of wire in the form
of spiral spring has a stronger field
than straight wire carrying the same
current, for each turn or convolution
adds its magnetic field to that of the
other turns; and by having the center
of the coil of iron, which is magnetic
body, the strength of the magnetism is
greatly increased.-St. Nicholas.

The investigation started this week
and the commission probably will
pry some things loose before they
get through. They were given free
swing when they appeared in the
Office Of Assistant Secretary Rich
ards who suavely informed them
that "the clerks, the books and pa

was entirely at their service. 1"
With this assurance the commiss-

be in executive session and the re-
suits will be kept secret also till a
report is submitted to the President.
Then something may come out
through Secretary Loeb at the

it will be scanty in. quantity and

, Departmental inquiries are quite
the fashion these days, but Secre-
tary Shaw seems to have reached
the limit il a circular addressed to
the clerks of the Treasury Depart
ment The object of the inquiry is
ostenSibly a worthy one. 1t is to
give the Secretary data for speech
he is preparing on the subject OF
civil service retirement. But the
questions asked are of a sort that a
man does not often answer voluu
tarily and that if asked by someone
other than an employing cabinet Of
fcer would be met with the prompt
advice to go where snow flake
would stand no show what vec.
Among The questions are: Have
you bought your house and how
much did you pay for it?' ''How
much do you still owe on it," Are
you in debt for it and if so how
how much?" IF not, how much
are you worth?" "What portion
of this money have you saved out
of your salary?" Well, maybe the
Secretary will get answers to that
sort of personal questioning. May
be if he does not he will fire the
clerks who refuse to answer. But
it is not the sort of catechism that
the average private employee would
stand from his boss and the out
come whatever it is will be awaited
with commingled interest and Curl
osity.

The commission probably had
been doing a little investigation on
the side before it approached the

with questions that were obviously
suggested by someone on the inside.
though who that someone was will
of course continue a state secret.
The questions included the subject
Of principal examiners" whom
the commission wanted to know il
it would not be possible to reduce
to the rank aud salary Of ordinary
clerks. Then there were some
technical questions about the con-
solidation of the Swamp land di.
vision" and the consequent saving
OF the salary of division chief.
There are other questions about the
ACCESSIBILITY of segregating the sex
es in separate Offices with a view to
improving the morals of the force
These things will simply be start.
er for the investigation. The scope
probably will widen as the inquiry
proceeds. 1t is understood that the
Investigation will be confined to the
Office in Washington and will not
touch the gigantic frauds of the
west for which Senator Mitche Il
and Representative Williamson
have already been convicted.
