Win Probably be Returned.

Washington, Aug. 2l.-Phrsons
cdaiming some knowledge of the prog
ress being made in probing the cot
ton leak scandal in the department of
agriculture are predicting interesting
developments within week or ten
days.
Without mentioning names, per-
son who has been keeping in touch ey-
pressed the belief that the report OF
tn grand jury will include indictments
against Ave persons, Three of these
ii was stated. are former employees of
the departmen of agriculture and two
nonrosidents of Washington.
In this connection opinion was ex-
4 pressed that four persons, two Wash
! bgtonians. and two New Workers. will
be named in one indictment charging
conspiracy. and the other indictment
will be against one person, charging At
tempt to bride. There is also reason
TO believe that the work OF the grand
jury, so far as the hearing of oral tes-
timony is concerned, is very nearly
finished. A great deal of documentary
testimony has been submitted TO the
grand jury, howcyer, and 1t will take
several days to so over this.
District Attorney Morgan H. Beach,
ii is said. has his legal eye on the alb
sent Edwin Holmes. Jr., and without a
very great stretch of the arm Of the
law could put his hand upon him.
Whether or not Mr., Beach will extend
his legal arm in the direction Of MI,
Holmes is not known.
Last week large number of the en-
poyes Of the bureau Of statistics Of the
department of agriculture were sum-
moned by District Attorney Beach to
testify before the grand jury. MANY
more Of them will he called TO give evil
dence within the next few days. The
purpose Of this evidence is to show
that it would have been impossible for
a Teak" to have occurred where the
usual method of work in the depart
ment was followed.
While there is little doubt that the
grand jury will return two kinds of in
ditments. one. for conspiracy and the
other for attempting to bride govern
ment Official no ore seems willing to
hazard an opinion as to who will be
caught in the grand jury dragnet

A Terrible Prediction.

Poss-Dispanch.
One Mr. Boone, described as the
superintendent Of compulsory educa
tion at Chicago, announces the com
ing Of the eternal feminine, the gov
eminent Of msternslism and the final
disappearance OF man except as they
maybe employed chopping woodland
at other odd jobs.
"Msn, like the Indian" says Mr.
Bokine, lis dying out. In 1896
there we're 3,914,571 women employ
ed in gsiniul populations in America
In 1900 the number had increased
to 5,329,s07. The birth rate among
the female occupation is increasing
and the deaths decreasing. 1t isiust
the reverse with the males. We are
rapidly drifting to the age OF the
eternal feminine, when man will be q
back number and forced to return to
the soil and to those fields OF labor
where only bis physical endurance
will save him in the struggle for
survival"
Translated into language OF sense,
this means that men having accom-,
plished the reduction OF nature-fell.
Ing forests, draining swamps, ex'
terminating noxious beasts-and
making the world habitable, they
must look to women for the work Of
the future. The earth has been
made by man o At place to live In
Now women must show US how to
live.
Nothing very sensational in that.
Nor is the prospect so terrible. The
uselessness OF men is not yet In sight.

each, all the money necessary for the
 act of universal homage would soon be collected. Some foreign nations have
 not waited for this moment to honor Shakespeare's memory by statues of their own. In 1872 the statue by MT. J. Q. A. Ward was erected in Central park, New York. Left hand on hip, the right holding book, the poet stands . in thought; but the legs are weak. and the head and face are not sufficiently mas sive in form or firm in expression to sug- gest the mighty intellect of the master. Chicago was not long behind New York in claiming her share in the national heritage. In 1886 the late MT. Samuel Johnson bequeathed sum of money for the purpose of setting up a statue to Shakespeare in his city, and the seated figure of the poet may now be seen in Lincoln park. It is certainly far better conceived than that of New York, for here is man who appeals to the imag- ination of what Shakespeare might have been, though it would scarcely satisfy the shades of Droeshout or of Jansen. We may regret the dreadfully nonde- script character. the chair. and the pro- fusion, unmeaning except on sculptural grounds, of the drapery; but the statue as whole, cast in bronze reflects credit on the sculptor, Mir. William Ordway Partridge, of Boston. It should be stat ed that our photograph is taken from the plaster cast. Inevitably. perhaps. the statue which was so gracefully erected in Paris in 1888 by ''an admirer," at the junction of the Boulevard Haussmann and the Avenue de Messine. lacks some- thing of the dignity we expect Yet the statue, wrought in bronze by Paul Four nier, is thoroughly accomplished work of art
 So recently as June of last year. mar ble statue-memorial. by Herr Otto Les sing, the first erected in Germany. was set up in Weimer, by the German
