Secretary of the Navy Bonaparte has returned all railroad passes rendered him, thanking the donors but stating he cannot accept because of the public position he occupies. The incident is worthy of note because it is seldom that an official announces he has de clined passes although it is suspected that others besides MT Bonaparte pay railroad fare.

LawsOn's Book.

In Lawson's book, just published
by the Ridgway-Thayer Company,
there appears, in the section of the
book called Lawson and His Crit
ics," much interesting matter per-
tanning to the three big life-insur-
ance companies. 1t was the Book
man that said:
Chow many months ago was it
that all the life.insurance journals
were making merry over Mr.. Law
sons charges, and busily explain
ing why it was not worth the Equit-
able's while to sue him for libel?
Not very many months; and now
cataclysm has shaken out of that
particular institution the concen-
trated rotteness of many years;
while its sister companies are be-
fore the judgement seat with fear
and trembling. AS for the Beef
Trust, five Of its constituent COM
panies and seventeen of its leading
members are under criminal indict-
ment and in a fair way to be con-
victed. AS to the raiIways-the
most difficult problem of all-the
President of the United States is
pledged to draw their fangs, either
by rate regulation or by national
ownership, and though the struggle
must be long, it can end in but one
way. And the exposure of the land
frausd has already brought a long
sentence OF Imprisonment upon a
senator of the United States, Let
us therefore take a cheerful view of
the literature of exposure. 1t be-
longs no more to the category of
cheap entertainment. 1t has be-
come the efficient instrument of
civic and national reform"

PsYCHICAL RESEARCH

Automatic writing was the subject which Professor Richet came all the way from Paris to discuss before the Society of Psychical Research
 Professor Richet is the president of the society, but as he was reading the paper, the chair was taken by Sir Oliver Lodge The professor, addressing his audience in French, described in detail a remarkable phenomenon which came
 under his personal observation. The facts, briefly stated, are these:
 Mme. K. friend of Professor Richet, knows no Greek, yet on various oc- casions she has written. while in a trance, Greek sentences with a definite meaning. Once she sent him by mail three pieces of Greek which he~was finally able to trace to an exceedingly rare dictionary of French and Greek, of which Mme. x had no knowledge whatsoever. On another occasion, when he went to call upon her towards evening, when the rays of the setting sun were deepening the shadows in the room, she wrote sentence in Greek which meant. At sunrise and sunset the shadows lengthen." She wrote in a current hand, but she made mistakes
 in placing the accents, and occasionally
 made such slips as could only be made by a person having no knowledge of 1 the language. For example, she would | write the Greek letter "s'' by mistake | for the letter ''o," with an accent over | it-a very natural mistake for a copy l ist, who is completely ignorant of the | language he is writing, and is simply
 copying by eye, but one which, as it renders 8 word quite unpronounceable,
 could not be made, even though care l lessness, by any one knowing the lan- guage.
 These, then, are the facts. Professor
 Richet, in clearing the ground for dis
 cussion, took it as automatic that Mime.
 x. acted throughout in good faith. He
 could not bring proofs of this, but he
 could vouch for her good faith as he
 could for his own. The lady certainly did not know Greek. You cannot
 conceal from all your friends and
 relatives your knowledge of language
 like Greek, and, in any case we have
 her word for 1t that she did not know
 the language. Moreover, she had
 never seen the book from which she
 quoted three passages
 l How could such a phenomenon be &C.,
 counted for? It could not be an effort
 of memory, for Mime. X. had never
 to her knowledge, seen the book from
 which she quoted. Equally, it could
 hardly be unconscious memory of a

Ter took the cards, and while they waited they heard a gentle. familiar voice" instructing the servant to tell the callers tha. Mrs. Clark was not at home. Other women were turned down in like manner, women described by the passionate correspondent as state ly danes, many of whom have been leaders in Butte society for many years; but the women who had been friendly to Mrs. Clark in her humble days were welcomed cordially.
 There are details in the story that might require explanation. The cor rect Englishman will smile at the thought of butler receiving cards at the hall door, but too often in this country butler is genteel name for man of ali work, who blacks books, runs errands, looks after the furnace fire: and why should he not wait on the door if he has nothing else to do? The visiting foreigner might also in quire euriously into the age of Butte's S ''best society," not knowing that Butte was a social place from the very start, and that leading etymOlogists are in- clined to trace the origin Of tho phrase ito butt in to the ease with which strangers entered society in Butte in the early days
 But these details are after all ofslight importance. The great lesson to be l learned by women from the entertain ing episode is this: Treat kindly every poor and good-ioolzing girl, shop girl, I telephone girl, stenograrher. for at any | moment she may become the wife Of a mutinlillionaire and society queen. ! This ordinary bread thrown on the wa ters will return to you as pumpernick- el. You will be bidden to poInpous feasts, you will sit iE opera boxes, you will be driven in parks, esteemed and enYied; nay, more, yGu will be invit- cd to automobile parties in France, England and Italy, and presented at
 foreign courts.

WONDERFUL LAKE IvANHoE.
Swarms With Fish, Is Surrounded by Game, and Has a Colony of Beaver

Swarms With Fish, Is Surrounded by
 Game, and Has a Colony of Beaver.
 Lake Ivanloe, five miles northwest of shattuck Woodward county, is one of the most picturesque places in Vest ern Oklahoma. Dick Quinn, of Guymon describes it in this manner: "The lake is a mile and half long, fringed by elm and other trees-deep and clear and absolutely swarning with bass and catfish. One can sit under a tree with his fishing rod and see shoals of bass as big as feather bed. Then there are boats for sailing or rowing and 10000 acres of adjacent land for hunting, abounding in duck, plover snipe, quail and prairie chickens. The wandering Ivanhoe, that comes meandering down from Texas through wide, rich valleys. past cliffs of magnesia stone, pours it's never failing tide of clear spring water into the fake, timber fringed, gurg- ling brook that at it's juncture with Wolf river is damned up by large colony of beayer-thus producing Lake Ivanhoe. These active and intelligent animals have increased since 1893, when there were but three, to about 120 at the present time, and to make room for their growing needs they have inundat- ed large tract of timber recently by digging canal.

SWEET REVENGE.

The young wife of Senator Clark of Montana lived not long ago in poverty with her parents in Butte. As Miss La Chapelle she had friends, warm and firm; but there were, it appears, high born danes, arrayed in silks and sat- ins who passed her. by with mincing step and disdainful glance.
 Some weeks ago, as Mrs. w. A, Clark. she returned to Butte after an absence of several years. Some of the most prominent women of the city, leaders of the first circle - and there are circles in society as Dante found them in his Inferno promptly called at MT.
