Washington, Oct. 13.-AmeTican griev-
ances against Venezuela may be set

absence of any diplomatic relations at
Caracas, may yet be compelled to resort
TO show of force. Despite the assur-

Ultimatum Held Up.
This briefly is the situation tonight.
The French ultimatum viii be held up
until further conferences have occurred
between the French embassy here and
the state department. So far as Judge
Calhoun, the American special COM
missioner. has reported to the depart
ment, there is nothing in the situation
at Caracas that cannot be settled by
patient and firm diplomacy. American

history for the settlement without re-

Warships Not Necessary.
While not prepared 10 announce def

Washington government has let France
know informally it's belief that Ameri-

though severe. can be settled without
the assistance of American warships.
This Information was not commune
Gated with any intention Of fOTestall
ing a resort by France TO force, but
was in answer TO the earnest request OF
the Paris government. Public opinion
in France is rapidly becoming exhaust
ed over the delay of the government in
proceeding against Venezuela. and this
fact necessarily acts as a spur in the
conferences between Paris and Wash
ington. This government will give
France every possible assistance to-
ward diplomatic adjustment.
Thorough Understanding.
\ thorough understanding exists be-
tween Paris and Washington ON this
subject. and even il France shall find
il necessary to establish pacific block
ade against Venezuela the Washington
government Will offer no objection, hav-
ing already assured itself that the
Monroe doctrine is not involved in any
way.
In diplomatic circles the opinion is
expressed that the Venezuelan presi-
dent would yield before a pacific block
ade is established. The aversion on
the part of France and the United
States TO the use of warshi0s in this
case arises from the fact that the block

Corrupt Use of Trust Funds.
Daily Picayune.

Daily Picayune.
The astonishing revelations made
as to the profigate and dishonest
disposition of their trust funds by
the gigantic life insurance compa-
MES of the United States have
aroused the people throughout the
Union.
These great companies, which
have taken risks of the lives of
people throughout the United
States, and hold scores of millions
of the money of the policy-hold-
ers, who invested their money for
the benefit of wives and children,
are now discovered to have been
guilty of enormous extravaganza
in disposing of the trust funds
placed in their care.
Officials of these great compa-
MES, holding enormous amounts
of trust finds, and knowing that
they could never be called on to
settle up their entire indebtedness,
and. therefore, never thought to
an accounting. appear to have ex-
ercised no reserve in raiding the
funds, and where 80 many were of
the same mind money circulated
freely.
The first inkling the world got
of these antics was through quar-
rel that broke out between the
high officials of one OF the comps
MES. That set the official inqui-
sitors to work, and now the entire
matter is coming out. It the face
of such facts it lie not strange that
such concerns which we're but re-
Gently on the summit of popular
favor have sunk seriously in pub
lie confidence.
Among the latest revelations
brought ont by the Investigating
Committee il the fact that i'm
meuse contributions have been
made for political purposes. to se-
cure legislation and TO aid cam
paign funds. If the excitement
keeps mp Congress will be forced
to make some stringent laws for
the protection of trust funds ga
thered throughout the Union, and
to prevent the holders of such
funds from corrupting politics and
usinRt them to carry public cleo
tions.

Dear Sirs: Have you found-out
you can paint a job with fever gal
Ions Devoe than of anything else,
lead-and-oil, or anything else?
Mr. Floyd Almy, House and Sign
Painter, Greenwich, N Y. found it
out three years ago; he writes: II
have used Devoe lead-and-zinc for
the past three years, and cannot
say too much in its favor. l am
using it now on q big job that l
took by contract, and it has saved
me at least $25 in the cost of ma
terial."
Devoe' is the strongest paint we
know-of; goes furthest; takes less
of it to do your job.
Lead-snd-oil is pure; lead-and-
zinc is stronger; covers more; goes
further.
Have you found-out you can
paint a gallon Devoe in less time
than a gallon of anything elsei
That means less time for the job,
Less time; less money.
Less paint; less money for that;
less time, less money for that De-
voc lasts longer; do you mind the
less money for that? You are
surer of it.
Yours truly

-Shakespeare's Tempest"
The agricultural life is especial
ly adapted to suggestion of
thoughts concerning the mysteries
of existence. The farmer, from
the very nature of his occupation,
is compelled to reflect upon the
eternal round of birth, growth and
decay and incidentally of the mu-
liability of all earthly things. He
sees the seasons come and 60. He
secs the annual recurrence of seed
time and harvest. He becomes
familiar with the marvellous renas-
cence of theapparently dead plants
and shrabbery, the gradual I'M
folding. the full fruitsge and the
inevitable decay. Irrssistibly he
is compelled to find in all this but
a reduplication Of the fate that
awaits msn himself. Change is
written ON all things and the trans
formations in the vegetable world
are emblematic of those occurring
in the higher orders of life. Love
is the master motive and the main
stay of existence; but love, like
the roses. most soon pass away.
Pleasures are evanescent and des-
troy themselves in the very enjoy
ment, "a moment here then gone
forever" Youth and the opening
flowers. though they seem to be
things too glorious for decay. alike
await the inevitable hour. There
is no household without q skeleton,
no family without a lost one, no
circle 80 happy bat is disturbed by
a disquieting memory. It was
doubtless under the influence of
the pastoral life that man caught
his first glimpse of a truer religion
and safer system of philosophy.
The shepherds. forced to be up
with their fiocks, must needs have
gazed into the starry vaults and
reflected on the wonders of the
universe aud the still greater won
der as to it's existence. They re-
fected, too, upon the mysteries of
our mortal being, the mixture of
JOY and sorry, the inequalities and
injustices, the disappointments,
the failures following success, the
helplessness in face of "unmerci-
full disaster" aud in their weak
ness longed for a recompenss, for
communion with better order of
beings.
This sunshine aud shadow of
the country life, this alienation
of hopes and fears, this passing of
the summer cloud and especially
the mellowing tints of autumn are
each suggestive of an underlying
truth which finds reflection in all
the great literature of the world.
While there is much of JOY ia life
and the endless variety of nature,
there is inseparable from it all an
undertone of sadness. This does
not necessarily mean unhappiness,
or entering or wretchedness in it's
acute form.
