INDIAN SCHOOL BOYS
SURRENDER IN DENVER.

About four months ago Albert
Seobey and Joe Lamare, two Indian
boys who We're pupils at the Teller
indian institute, ran away from
school and all efforts TO locate the
boys We're futile. They had attempt
ed to get away from the school sew
eral times before but had been appre-
hended every time. Four months
had passed and the search for the
boys had long ago been given up.
Last night Supt. Burton, of the
Indian school, received message
stating that the two boys had sur
rendered to the authorities in Denver
and desired to return to Grand juno
ton TO the school. Supt Burton left
at once for Denver to get the boys.

Proof of Prosperity.
From the Cleveland Leader


In the last thirty-four years the popula-
ton of the United States has slightly
more than doubled. The number of in
habitants was 3S55S,371 in 1879. 1t is
about 100000 now. In the same period
the rate of increase in the imports of silk
has been about 1880 per cent. In coffee
the gain has been $50 per cent. Tropical
fruits and nuts valued at $7,416,592 were
imported in 1870. Last year the value of
such imports was $24,946,633 In cocoa
and chocolate the rate of increase in i'm
ports has been about 2,40O per cent, while
the population has gained less than 100 per
cent. Imports Of spices have expanded
1855 per cent and cabinet woods over 400
per cent.
These products. 1t will be noted. are
luxuries rather than necessaries. They
supply wants which grow with wealth
and ease. Therefore they measure with
no little accuracy the multiplication of
American families able to indulge in more
expensive tastes than might be gratified
freely by any save the wealthy and the
well-to-do The things nation buys tell
quite clearly it's needs and resources. The
statistics of imports in the last three or
four decades are eloquent of the growth
and diffusion of great prosperity in the
United States.

Japanese Socialism.
From the London News.

From the London News
The presence of a Japanese delegate at
the socialist congress is natural enough
Japan has imported so many of our insti-
tutions and ideas that socialism was bound
to creep in among them. Katamaya's
party, like it's European models. Is now en-
gagged in agitating against the war 1t Is
not pro- Russian; neither as Japanese nor
as socialists could Katayama and his
friends have any sympathy with the CLAW
despotism But Japanese socialists oppose
the war, no doubt, because it means heavy
taxation on the poor and the STRENGTHENING
of the military element, which Is always
most hostile to socialism. Their efforts
will be useless. In the midst Of Japan's
life and death struggle there is no room
for debate as to the merits of a war policy
But after the war Is over more will be
heard of the socialists in connection with
the labor movement. Katayama declares
that Japanese trade unions have no poll
tics, but seek only to improve the condi-
ton Of the worker. He errs In comparing
them in this respect to our trade unions,
which at the forthcoming congress will
affirm their political faith In decisive terms
on free trade, Chinese labor and other burn
ing questions OF the day. But Katayama
probably hopes.f like English socialists. to
capture the trade unions for the indie
pendent socialists party. 1t remains to be
seen whether this policy. which has not
gone far in England, will succeed in Japan.

Chateaubriand in London.

John J. Beckett In the Catholic Quarterly Review.
'All the English are mad by nature or by
fashion," Chateaubriand writes nonchalant-
ly In this book of his embassy in London
QS21), but he had a very gay time with the
same lunatics. We hear Of dinners, AL
mack's and lie beau monde. THE day was
thus distributed In London: At 6 o'clock
in the morning one fastened to a party Of
pleasure, consisting of a breakfast in the
country; one returned to lunch in London;
one changed ones dress to walk In Bond
street or Hyde Park; one dressed again to
dine at 1880; one dressed again for the
opera; at midnight one dressed once more
for an evening party or rout. What life
of entertainments! / should a hundred times
have preferred the galleys." One smiles
and reads on He found London full Of
recollections of Bonaparte. THE people
had passed from the vilification of Nick to
a stupied enthusiasm. His colossal bust by
Canova decorated the Duke of Wellington
staircase"
AT an evening party at Lord London
derry's, the English premier, Il was pre-
scented by his majesty to a severe-looking
lady. seventy-three years old. She was
dressed In Grape, wore a black veil like a
diadem on her white hair and resembled a
queen who had abdicated her throne She
greeted me in a solemn voice with three
mangled sentences from the Genie du
Christianisme,' then she said to me- with
no less solemnity am Mrs. Siddons' If
she had said to me, I am Lady Macbeth

Is There Wit or Humor in Music?

From the London Saturday Review
There Is little room in music for humor
and no room at all for wit. When 1 hear
some one speak of the wit of Chopin
scherzo think: my friend, you had bet
ter see doctor at once; you are slightly
deranged mentally" In association with
words there can be humor in music as
for example the prolonged low notes Han
del gives to Polyphemus when he asks for
a hundred reeds "for my capacious mouth"
But the humor of Haydn and Beethoven in
their instrumental works consists entirely
of practical jokes; a sudden low C on the
bassoon, a horn passage which no horn
player can ever hope to play, a bass who
enters a bar too soon or too late. The late
Harold Frederic summed up the question
beautifully. He said to me one day when
1 had not laughed at one of his stories:
Musicians have no sense of humor. When
1 was a young man touching negatives in
a photographers studio l was very musical,
1 had notes in my voice that couldn't be
found In any piano in our parts. I had
no sense of humor Afterward I developed
sense of humor and lost my voice"

knowledge and Culture.
From Harper's Weekly.

From Harper's Weekly.
High marks in examinations depend upon
trained memory and a power of acquir-
ing Irrelevant information. Culture, on the
contrary, Is sympathetic assimilation of
the best in the realm of thought and
achievement. Culture is a slower process
and deeper, and it's reward strikes fur
ther in. Assimilation of the best that has
been thought and accomplished affects not
merely the brain. but the characteristic
whole spirit of man. Culture implies a
soil plowed and fertiliZed where whatever
seed falls has the better chance for growth.
Information even in vast quantities, so
long as 1t remains mere information used
for purposes of passing examinations, need
not affect the manners nor the morals of a
man; both may remain hopelessly lax in an
encyclopaedia mine of facts. But culture
affects primarily the manners and the
morals. A cultured gentleman has exter-
nal methods of getting on with his kind;
he has the true sense of relationship. the
feeling that all he can learn to feel or to be
is not for himself, but for service; he knows
himself in network of human inter-rela-
lions In the end, the test of knowledge is
not examination marks, 1t Is living.

Pie Our National Pastry.
from the Milwaukee Sentinel.


Pie Is consumed chiefly by the native
Americans. Foreigners eat very little OF 1t.
A German, for example, might eat three
pies In a year. while good Yankee would
consume as many in a week. The English.
the Italians and the French are small pie
eaters The English eat plum pudding and
the Italians like fruit. New England and
the middle states constitute the area Of
greatest consumption. but the pie belt ex-
tends far beyond that, as pie Is extensively
eaten all through the west. Pie Is eaton
much more generally in the north than IN
in the south. Chicago is great pie center.
St Louis Is not so good. Milwaukee also
ranks low. One would not think that there
are means for ascertaining the facts IN re-
gard to pie consumption, but L have gath
cred statistics on the subject during the
past two years which enable me to COM
pute with reasonable correctness the con-
sumption of pies in every state In the
Union. Pies are made in greater varieties
than formerly, and the supplies are brought
from greater distances-in fact. from all
parts of the world. The season of Piles
made of green fruit have been prolonged.
and pies are made OF canned fruit the year
round The time honored mince pie has be-
come q Christmas dessert whose piarc -
sure and beyond dispute. There Is no ex-
port trade in pies, because In crossing the
ocean the crust would become soggy, which,
of course is the reverse of the desired con-
dftion 1t Is a fact which would surprise
many persons. however. that pies are oftsn
shipped hundreds of miles across this coun.
