Better kiss than a frown;
Better a look toward the sky, dear,
Than always be looking down.
Better in time of trouble
A song of hope and cheer

And makes the sorrow dear.
The joys we find today dear.
Perhaps seem poor and small.
But better d little sun. dear.

Paris, March zo.--rhe prospects OF
peace between Russia and Japan as
lumed a more definite and almost tan
gible aspect as the result Of the an
nouncement OF the resumption Of nego-
tlations for a Russian loan. The post
ponement of the loan occurred through
the stand taken by the financial ele-
ment against proceeding while the un-
certainues continued, whilst willing
ness TO resume negotiations was con-
strued as meaning that their strong
influence finally has prevailed with
the authorities at ST. Petersburg. The
announcement OF the resumption Of
negotiations took definite form in a
communication to the syndicate OF
agents de change, who form an intlu-
entail element on the Bourse, holding
government credentials.
The effect Of the first announcement
was to stimulate the market, and par
tlcularly Russian securities. A reac-
tlon occurred on fears as to the effect
the heavy demands Of the loan would
have on the market and doubts con-
cerning the uses to which the loan VIII
be put. However, it seems to be the
accepted view of inanciers that the
proceeds of the loan will not be applied
10 the further continuance Of the war.
Coupled with the announcement Of
resumption OF the loan negotiations
came a strong intimation from Official
and diplomatic quarters that steps
looking toward speace had been def
nitely taken by Russia. The foreign
Office declined TO confirm a report that
France was likely to be the interme-
diary; but diplomats, who are actively
interested, for the first time gave credit
10 the statement that Russia had de-
cided to seek peace. Il was said in
these quarters that Russia would deal
directly with Toxic through the French
minister. who has charge Of Russia's
interests there. However the report
Of Frances active part in the negotia-

HEALY SAYS wife
IS THE DRUNkARD

Charles Healy was dismissed this
afternoon by Judge Hinkle as there
was no evidence on which to hold
Healy over to the superior court
on the charge of larceny of 800
worth of trunks from his wife. His
wife started divorce proceedings a
short time ago and later had her
husband arrested.
Healy claimed he knew nothing
of the suit for divorce or of taking
the trunks.
In the complaint Healy's wife
claimed he was a drunkard and
took no care of her. Healy, in
speaking of the trouble, said: Il
have affidavits to show that my
wife is the drunkard and not |.
