Summer Colds.

Summer colds, hay fever, rose catarrh
and influenza might be classed as sum-
mer grip and are most distressing and
exasperating, especially for those who
cannot indulge in an ocean voyage or a
trip to the mountains. The suffering is
keen and acute for the stay-at-homes.

MUTINISTS DEFIANT.
Declare War Against the Whole of
Russian Navy.

Bucharest, Roumania, July 5.-The
Russian torpedo boat destroyer Sme-
tilvy appeared off Kustenji Tuesday
and signaled that she was seeking the
Kniaz Potemkine.
1t is stated that the Kniaz Potem-
kline has attacked an Italian vessel
carrying coal.
There is much uneasiness among
Russian vessels at Roumanian ports.
Before the Kniaz Potemkine sailed
from Kustenji delegation from the
crew handed the project a proclama-
ton addressed to the representatives
of the powers in Roumania, formally
declaring war on all Russian vessels
which refuse to join the mutineers.
The proclamation says the Kniaz
Potemkine will respect neutral terri
tory and foreign shipping.
The delegation requested that the
proclamation be forwarded to the pow
ers.
London, July ga dispatch to the
Evening Standard from Odessa says
the Kniaz Potemldne has been sight
ed twenty-five miles off that port.

Pointed Paragraphs in Pre- sident's
Speech at Harvard University.

We can best help the growth of
American scholarship by seeing that as
career it is put more on level with
the other careers open to cur young
men.
If in the public mind the career of
scholar is regarded as Insignificant COM
pared with that of the glorified pawn.
broker, then it will with difficulty be
made attractive to the most vigorous
and gifted of our American young men.
In business at the present day moth
ing should be more healthy than an
immense reduction in the money value
of the exceptional prizes to be won; but
in scholarship what is needed is the
reverse.
The average undergraduate has
enough robustness of nature, enough
capacity for enthusiasm and aspiration,
to make it worth while to turn to &C
count the stuff that is in him.

not mind in the least that they are
rough games, or that those who take
part in them are occasionally injured.
have no sympathy whatever with
the overweight sentimentality which
would keep young man in cotton

him if he counts broken arm or collar
bone as of serious consequence when
balanced against the chance of showing
that he possesses hardihood, physical
address, and courage.
1t is bad thing for any college man
to grow to regard sport as the serious
business of life; and it is much worse to
permit college sport to become in any
way tainted by professionalism.
Professional sport is all right in its
way. Among my friends / number

need than now of having among its
leaders men of lofty ideals, which they

The very rich man who conducts his
business as if he believed that he were

increases the difficulty of upholding

1t is far more important that men
should conduct their business affairs
decently than that they should spend
the surplus of their fortunes in philan-

Every man of great wealth who runs
his business with cynical contempt for
those prohibitions of the law which by
hired cunning he can escape or evade,
is menace to our community.

Gen. Alger Will Not Seek Re-eIec.
ton.

The Courier Herald is in position
to announce upon indisputable author
ity that General Russell A. Alger of
Detroit will not again be candidate
for the United States senate, and also
that he will soon make public an
nouncement to that effect.
1t is understood that General Alger
has made his decision on account OF
the condition of his health, which,
while not threatened he wishes to con-
serve and which will not permit the
exacting duties of another term in the
senate. His services in the civil war,
his extremely active business and po-
litical career and the tremendous strain
of the burdens that fell upon him as
secretary of war during the Spanish
war, have tested his physical abilities
to the full He does not feel that at
his age he should make further extra
ordinary demands upon his vital forces.
AS is well known. the only pronounc-

public at this time is w. G. Mcmillan,
of Detroit, son of the late Senator
James Mcmillan. There is a strong
sentiment throughout the state, as far
as it has been casually made apparent,
in favor of Hon. Arthur Hill of Sagi-
nav. Mr.. Hill himself has made no
sign as to his own attitude upon the
subject. He is out of the city now, and
therefore it is impossible to learn
whether this decision of General Alger's
will have any effect upon his position
or views. Congressman Fordney' s
name has also been mentioned in the
same connection, and he also has said
nothing to indicate his attitude toward
it.-Saginaw Courier Herald.

Says Cat ls Birds Chief Enemy.

Professor Clifton F. Hodge, biologist
at Clark University, has come out urg-
ing the determination of all cats by
municipalities, declaring they are the
worst existing enemy of bird life.
This has become matter of national
consequence, says Professor Hodge,
land demands the attention of cities,
as well as of people in the country.
have given much attention to this SUBJ
ject, and am firmly convinced the cat
is the worst enemy the bird has. Not
excepting the seventies of winter,
scourges of disease that might prevail
in bird families, and all other enemies
of bird life combined, the cat is the arch
fiend of them all, and stands at the
head of the list as destroyer of bird
life. We need the German method of
cat traps, like those that in one year
killed 30, 900 cats in Hamburg"
