PROFESSORS SALARIES.

The time has come for the Legisla
 ture to consider if the efficiency and reputation of the university can longer
 be maintained on a scale of salaries fixed about twenty five years ago wher
 the university was an experiment, the student body small, and the educa-
 tional plant far less elaborate than it
 now is The fact that the university
 has until recently been able to get and keep professors of a sufficient calibre to give it renown in the educational
 world, is due to the fact that the
 downward tendency in the range of prices that prevailed until 1897 tended
 not only to make a given salary more
 attractive, but also helped to offset the
 increase in the local cost of living as
 Lincoln grew from a town into a city. 1 In recent years, however, the drift of prices has been the other way. The
 Government statistics show rise in the cost of living in the last seven |years of from 25 to 35 per cent. The
 man who has something to sell, whether his farm products or his professioal services finds his income going up at the same time with his cost of living, and therefore makes no
 complaint, But the schedule of pay of the professors being inelastic, has al-
 lowed of no relief from the squeeze of rising expense pressing against fixed income. Professor Taylor's inyestiga-

Some think that it is all right for the Church to take and use devil money to fight the devil with, but should Russia's Church money be used to fight the Jap anese with? The Russian Church has enormous wealth, including secret hordes of gold and jewels which are the accumulation of generations. If Nich-
 olas II. were different kind of Czar Ia strong. grasping, tyrannical sover- eign like some few of his predecessors
 he might not hesitate to despoil the
 Church in order to fill his war chest. Among the dignitaries of that Church
 are several of his closest advisers-men who were said to be heartily in favor of
 the war. The sternest and most un-
 compromising champion of autocracy is the procurator of the Holy Synod,
 Pobiedonestoff, whose influence over the Czar has extended over 8 long period. So long as his influence lasts it is thought to be improbable that the
 Czar, either on his own initiative or in- spired by others, would appropriate the wealth of the Church for war purposes. It has been suggested that there would be something like poetic justice in the seizure of the gold and jewels of the Church to prosecute war in which the Church advised the Czar to engage, and which it has zealously defended
 and encouraged, but it wouldn't look very we'll for Church money to be used that way.

 Good Prospects for Their Use in That
 s.. Country. ,..e.
 According to United States Consul Anderson at Hangchau, China ., the prospects for d motor boats, in that country are bright. The whole of China is a network of canals and riv- CTS upon which motor boats, especial ly boats of ft-draught capacity can be operated. Within the past few years the accepted modegpf travel has been by house boat, lowed by steam launch Where the regular. lines of steam launches do not run, the old-tin1e house boat with yuloh or scull is employed. These boats are very slow, and grow more and more unpopular. E
 It will be many years before this travel is displaced by railroads, and in the meanwhile there is growing fav- or for power boats, both for the pri- vate ownership of those who are com pelled to go about considerably In China, and for more or less public service. The motor boat as it is, now made in the United States is practical ly unknown in China, In Shanghai and other prominent trading points on the

UncOlnrnonIy Like.

In Jumbo-Jumbos jungle land,
 While roaming like an eejut, I met a maid of neutral shade
 And loved her most immeJut: For she was right and tight of style, UnciviliZed, but pretty, And when she grinned she had smile Uncommonly like Kitty. I didn't go to love her so,
 But she was so contajus, The moment she said ''Boog' to me Me fond heart beat outrajus. Her feather -duster eurls she shook Now one side, then the other; And now and then she said, You look Uncommonly like brother Into the jungle deep and low. aI follered Ter right cheerful, Where forty chieftains in a row Crowned at me something skeerful; Around-a a pot stood twenty cooks The roarin, fire a-punchin,. "Aha" says I, I says, '"rhis looks
 Uncommonly like lunchin', 'Oh, come to lunch!" the maiden cried q couldn't see no vittlesl. .,s,-z. And pulls a stab-knife from 'er side, And that she whets and whitties. The forty chiefs they done the same, In unison repeatin' Y With hungry zeal the words, We feel Uncommonly like eatin'!" I jumped fer fair ten feet in air, Kicked a OCT the pot and lodged the lot With nimbleness surpriisint An. well I loved that maiden svelte. With passion past believin,; But when left I'm sure felt
 Uncommonly like leavln'. s@%

HOTF TO KITE LONG.

It is rather cheering, or, at least, interesting, to see that there is evi- dence that man need not use rum and tobacco excessively in order to live long. Some testimony on the subject has been gathered by a British month ly, the Grand Magazine, which, as- suming that it takes clever man to live to be 80, has questioned a number of people who have lived to 8 ripe old age.
 From these answers we learn that the oldest member of the House of Lords, Lord Gwydyr, attributes his long life to not smoking, with plenty of outdoor exercise, and moderation in eating and drinking. He eats all kinds of meat, and drinks sparingly but reg ularly of liquor, sleeping between nine and ten hours a day. Sir William Hughes, President of the Royal Soci- ety, is 81, and declares he eats with moderation, taking but very little meat, drinking coffee, but seldom using al coholic liquor, never smokes and sleeps nine hours day. We find further, that Sir William Leece Drinkwater, who is in his ninety-third year, and

 tions into the retail prices based on re- ports from forty Lincoln firms touch ing large number of staple articles, shows an average advance in price of over 30 per cent. in ten years. From household accounts kept by sixteen members of the faculty, it appears that a hundred dollars goes no further in Lincoln than seyenty-seven dollors did four years ago.
 An advance in salaries presents it. self not simply as a matter of fairness but as cold business proposition. AL ready the neighboring universities in view Of the growing disparity between the incomes of their professors and the incomes of business and pro- fessional men, have been obliged to lift their scale of pay to a point which enables them to attract men at will from our own university. It appears lthat we pay heads of departments flower salaries than any similar State institution, perhaps $500 below the average. Professors have good share lof idealism and have never been reck- oned avarieious. None of them can be blamed however, off seeking a place elsewhere when he finds that his salary has by the increase in the, cost of living been practically cut down about $400 in four years. If the rest of the community were equally pinched he would eheerfully take the thin with the thick. But when he realizes that his income does not sypatfrize with the upward movement of incomes all a. bout him, and that it is becoming i'm possible for him to educate his family as his neighbors do, and lay by any, thing for old age, 1t is not surprising lthat he becomes uneasy.
 There are on the faculty men of great talents and of wide reputation thoroughout the country, who find that the top salary in the university scale will not yield them the livelihood lenjoyed by the average grain buyer, hardware merchant, or lawyer, g in the county seat town. Ask what the labler men of the bench and the bar and the bar and the stethoscope in this IState think of profession that after !seven or eight years of preparation be- lyond the high school, and five. to teight years of work in subordinate positions, holds out to a man as the utmost limit of. worldly success the lannual sum of $2,000. >... ..
 If the level of pay is not soon rasied one after another the men whose pre- lsence and labors give Nebraska Uni versity her high repute will be called away, as several have been in recent lyears, until with the exception of the flew men who are too old to accept g call elsewhere, the level of teaching liability will sink to the level of tho lsalaries. For in the long run you gel what you pay for and no more.--Ne. braska State Journal.

RTLL NOT DoRN EOW.

It is evident that this question of good or bad money in the churches isn't going to down this time. It has been up before, but it has been smoothed over, owing to a human inclination not to look a good gift horse in its golden mouth. Now, however, conscience seems to be really awake in some quar- ters and it shows no sign of going com fortably to sleep again right off. Dr. Washington Gladden. is one of those who think that the American Board ought not to take the s1O0,O0O offered by MT. Rockefeller. He says concerning the action of the Prudential committee: "This committee is merely a supple mentary committee anyway, and ought not to take upon itself the responsibil- ity of accepting this gift in view of the widespread feeling all over the country among religious people. I shall continue to protest until the confer enee of the Congregational Church in September. when some action will be taken. The churches should adopt some form of referendum in such mat ters so that the people of the churches can express their feeling and desires ir such cases All should protest against the acceptance of this gift"
 We think Brother Gladden. is right The people of the churches ought te have a chance to say what they think about such matters. They might moi always act with entire intelligence, but they might show the state of their con. sciences.
