NOT WHOLLT IDLE wORDs.

The other day Henry James pitched into newspaper English" pretty vig- orousIy. He called it an eruption of black type" ''hysteria,' screaming" etc, etc. President Wilson of Prince ton thinks peter of newspaper Eng fish" than MT. James does, He says: T think the English used in newspa- per articles is remarkably good. It is generally terse and clear and right to the point, and tells in a simple way exactly what the writer wants to say. It Is most surprising to me to under stand how the reporters, writing as they do so hurriedly and under such a great pressure, are able to write so well. can hardly comprehend it. None need be afraid of spelling their taste for good English by reading newspa- pers. The articles are almost always delightfully."- free from stiltedness and trite conventionality, which is more than can be said of the average col legians effusions''
 MT. James is right and so is President Wilson. Both bad and good English can be found in newspapers, and also in some books.

ed that they went to prison. Four in five of the holdup robbers who under took to perpetrate dime novel exploits were captured likewise. The detectives also did good service in forwarding tS,- scriptiOns of criminals from point to point and in other ways helping the police of the cities.
 These facts move the Brooklyn Eagle to remark: The question arises, after a perusal of the reports by the Bankers Association, whether we might not find it wise to engage the same sort of de- tectives for the common defense that the bankers engaged for theirs. It is seen that few of the men who rob banks get away, and even a measure of their plunder is recovered. Men who rob private houses, offices and ho- tels, on the contrary, appear to escape with irritating frequency, and carry their loot to towns where they can live on it. It is not easy to arrive at the economic results of this large en- ploy of high class detectives, because we cannot tell how much would have been stolen without them; but better talent in the local detective forces of our cities would justify itself, even at a considerable increase for salaries.

4 SADLY DEFECTIYE FLEET

{ Almost every day some fresh facts come to light concerning the radical effectiveness in the most essential qualitieso of Rojestvenskys i1l-fated Pa- cific squadron. Official reports made to the Russian Admiralty, by the admiral himself, before he set out on his disas- trous expedition, prove that he must have had some pretty strong premoni- tions of the fate in store for him. Ex- tracts from these have been printed lately in St. Petersburg. They indi- cate that his four finest battleships of the Borodino type were unseaworthy and unmanageable. In December last he reported that with HOO tons of coal, which were sufficient to cover 1900 miles at nine knots, these vessels sank two feet more than the estimated draught, rendering navigation in a sea- way dangerous and necessitating mir1- ute precautions to avoid capsizing. An- other report tells how he was compelled to take on board 2,2OO tons to effect a voyage of -2,7O0 miles and how the ships sank three feet more than was estimat- ed. In another place he complains that |every port and door leaked, and that there was great danger that the ships would be flooded or swamped. More over, it was almost impossible to man. oeuvre with any exactness. With the same number of revolutions of propel- Ter and wheel the four sister ships de- viated from their calculated course to the extent of two cable lengths. No wonder that they fell easy victims to Togo. Long before he left Madagascar la foreign naval officer declared that Rojestvensky did not have fleet but a menagerie.

his belly: then tell him to go home" {" The Derbyshire man duly arrived at his farm with the sheep. and was so pleased with the collie dog and it's per- formanee that he decided to keep it a few days before sending it back. One day he was away from home during the whole of the day, and on returning in the evening he found that the Scotch collie was missing, and also the flock of sheep. In a few days tidings came that the dog had arrived at his Scotch home and had brought the sheep back with him.

I'll give you an or der for them Just think of it; a thousand dollars worth of the rarest big mammals native to this continent. turned over with as little fuss as though I had said: Go to lend me a lame duck''
 By and by came April, and with it the first of the buffalo calves, and as desired to make a complete pictorial as well as written record Of the ex- pertinent, I journeyed to the buffalo yards, ten miles across Croydon Noun tain, to photogrph the calves before they were taken from their mothers. Now. it has been my experience that, with the exception of certain elderly bulls. which seem to have grown mo- rose, possibly from living too much by themselves, most buffaloes are peace ably disposed, save only at the time when the calves are young. Then, the cows are savage demons or protecting angels, according to the point of view, But from whatever point of view one looks at them, they demand the abso- lute respect of every visitor who would inspect or photograph the babies. ~ r As I entered the tree-dotted yard where the COWS and their little calves were Quartered, had two assistants magazine editor from New York, iii search of the simple life, and good "Bill' Morrison. scotchman, who has spent fifteen years of his life handling
 the "Corbin'' buffaloes. The cows lost
 little time in showing their mettle, and
 the first photograph I got was one oi
 my friend the editor, perched well ,ip
 in tree, where like a sensible fellow that he Swas, he remained until hos tilities were over. Morrison did what he could to drive the cows to points where they might be photographed, but they were in no humor to be driven and several times he had to sprint to friendly trees and fences. At last l saw fair chance for a picture, and camera in hand,I went out for a Shot.

TANNING THE BuFFALoEs--part |.

At this time, when the American people seem to have definitely made up their minds to save the last remnants of tie vast horde of bison which once
 covered the western plains as with a
 robe. it is of interest to know how far
 this great wild creature can be made to conform to the present conditions
 of the country, and whether or not he
 can be tanned and added to mans list of useful domestic animals. Not that
 either the success or failure of an at-
 tempt to domesticate him should affect
 the matter of his preservation. for
 apart from all question of utility, there
 are hundred good and sufficient
 reasons why Americans should unite
 in strong effort to save the last few
 hundreds of the finest animals which
 ever trod their soil Nevertheless, such
 an attempt is interesting, and if
 successful, should not be unfavorable
 to the cause of the buffalo. A
 To attempt the rearing of buffalo
 calves by hand. to study their habits
 day by day, and later to attempt to
 break them to the yoke, has been the

 came, year ago, to live within sight
 of Corbin Park, New Hampshire in
 which is confined the largest herd of bison in the world. No one but he can
 know with that longings he used to lie for hours behind rocks or trees or hid- den in the foundations of ruined
 buildings, watching the movements of sundry tawny youngsters as they
 punched their shaggy mothers with their hard little heads. or, in, the oc- casional mad stanpedes, held their
 places in the flying herd, fleet as polo ponies and sure-footed as goats. At times was almost tempted to dash out from my hiding place and try to capture one in my arms, but a mo- ment's reflection was enough to show me the absurdity of the, thought. In the first place, one might as well try to capture jack-rabbit; in the second place, if one succeeded in catching it 8
 greased bob cat would be easier to hold, and even if one could hold it, the probability of being killed by the mother was so strong that it amount ed to a dead certainty. So dreamed on, until the cold weather came, and until the buffaloes, were driven from their summer range of twenty-four thousand acres, to the buffalo yards, smaller enclosures in which they are fed during the winter. Then I went to the president of The Blue Mountain

DISCOVERED MAN.

The Supreme court of Massachusetts
 seems to think that a man not connected
 with labor unions may have legal rights. In a case before it a union of shoe factory employees made contract with the employing firm that thereafter only union men would be employed in the factory. When this contract was made one non-union man was an en-
 ploye of the firm and by reason of the contract he was discharged. It was not even pretended that he was not com petent man or that his services were
 unsatisfactory. He was just not un-
 ion man. It appears that he was un-
 der contract with his employers, and that they violated the contract by dis
 missing him, but this disregard of con- tract is not feature of the suit or de- cision. The discharged non- union man
 did not sue his former employers, but
 he did sue the leaders of the labor un-
 ion who made the contract which
 caused him to lose employment and the trial court awarded him $1,500 damages, and this decision has been upheld by
 the Supreme court. ,
 So the non-union man in Massachu- setts is not a man who can be walked
 all over if he is willing and able to
 stand up for his rights, which in most cases he probably isn't.

THEY CAN BE C1IrG HIT,

Banks tempt robbers, and about nine assaults a month are made on OUT fi- nancfal institutions and. the average
 "haul'' in each case is little over a
 thousand dollars. But nearly all of this loss during the past year has fall- en on banks that are not members of the American Association. Those which are members suffered about $650 worth apiece. It is believed that burglars sea- ing the sign advising them of such
 membership, keep away from protected institutions and ravage in safer dis tricts. During nine months the banks detectives captured sixty-three forgers and swindlers, convicted thirty of them, and arrested f1fty-seven burglars, of whom twenty-one were so ill defend-

native of India who has lost 8 large amount of money through the insolvency of an English merchant ex- plained the English insolvency laws as follows: In Burma the white man who wants to become insolvent goes into business, and gets lots of goods. and does not pay for them. He then gets all the money he can together, say 3O- GOO rupees Ca rupee is thirty-three cents), and puts all of it except 100 rupees away where no one can find it. With the 100 rupees he goes to a judge of the court and tells him he wants to become bankrupt. The judge then calls all the lawyers together, likewise all the men to whom the white man owes money, and says: "This man is insol- vent, but he wishes to give you all that he has got, so he has asked me to di- vide this 100 rupees among you all" The judge thereupon gives the lawyers ninety rupees, and the remaining ten rupees to the other men. Then the in- solvent goes home to England.

A story of Scotch collie is current on the Derbyshire border, according to the Dundee Advertiser. A farmer in the Peak district, having purchased a small flock of sheep in the Lowlands,
 drove the flock the whole way from
 Scotland to his farm in Derbyshire with the aid of a collie dog which was lent to Eim by the Scotch farmer from whom he purchased the sheep. "When YOU get to your home with the sheep" said the Scotchman. "let the dog fill

Bishop Merriman c. Harris writes to Zion's Herald from Japan: Every American has done much for the sol- diers worked many hours, visited the hospitals, and mingled with the leading Japanese women in this work of mercy and patriotism. Whenever you name America here, the face brightens and the eye becomes moist with grateful memories. What America has done for Japan will never be forgotten. The people would make any sacrifice for us. Whenever you praise Japan and say any good thing of her people, each and all will respond: Yes, we owe it all to America If my countrymen only knew the depth and sacredness of this sentiment for us. they would be slow to say an unkind word of the braves nation on earth"
