AS a result of the Coney Island bolt which
killed the five men yesterday many people
were badly burned about the arms by dis
charges down the ribs and steel handles OF
their umbrellas. which they had raised
even while standing under the boardwalk
at the bahing pavilion. An umbrella Is in
deed an invitation to the atmospheric cur
rent. The steel point is an ideal place for
the formation of cone of the earth's cleo
tricity. A person standing under an UNI
brella within radius of a larger zone Is
more likely to be shocked than one who
has no such covering.
There are certain rules which should In
variabiy be followed during electric
storm. Avoid trees and masts and very
tall, isolated structures. Eschew UNI
brellas. If the storm seems central imme-
diately at hand. make as small a mark of
the body as possible by sitting or lying
down the wet ground. And. above all,
remember that a drenchng can easily be
cured while a bolt of lightning usually
makes work for the undertaken. Between
the two evils do not hesitate second to
choose. for delays are dangerous when the
sky is surcharged

Peace and Palaver.

Mr. Sato. of the Japanese peace party. has
just issued his first explanation of views at
tributed to him. Lucky man, that he should
for a fortnight have run the gauntlet OF in
terviewers and come out 50 well! Not of
course that there is conspiracy to mis-
represent him, but the topic is 50 interest
Ing and the world so clamorous for news
about it running conversations on the sub
1ect may without intention easily carry in
accura ces. America is the home of an en-
terprisng press, and the foreign press just
now is ably represented on the scene, and
Japanese and Russians alike are in the
white light that beats upon I1en employed
In work so important The ENJOYS for the
time occupy a sort of throne.
But If some big tales are going from this
side to the other. some equally big are
coming from that side to this. The recproc-
tty in yarns, indeed. is quite spirited. Nee
essarily the kaiser figures largely In many of
:hem. because his temperament and reputa-
lion lend themselves to the fakirs art There
IS still pleasing dispute as to whether his
meeting with the czar at sea was on his
own or the czar's initiative, France and
Great Britain. for reasons easily seen, put
ling the kaiser forward, and Germany the
ezar. AS the weak man In trouble usually
Ieeks help of his strong neghbor, a disin-
lerested outsider would pick the czar.
We have then much truculent talk about
what Russia will and will not do, and what
Japan should and should not propose. The
ear tells his people that he will not ratify
a shameful peace. But nearly any sort of
peace would be credtab!e to Russia that
would put an end to a shameful war pro-
voked by her.
AS time goes by the atmosphere will
clear, and the excitement simmer down.
The game now is at the stage of bargain
and bluff. Let US not be carried away by
chance rumor or carefully prepared in
ventiOn. Peace is the word, and a peace
will be signed. Its terms no man can to-
day define. The ENJOYS on both sides know
their business. and will transact it in their
own way.

Sharks.

We are getting strange tales of sharks
lately. most shocking report comes from
the North Carolina coast, to the effect that
a monster recently carried off a boy who
was wading near shore In very shallow
water, this being the first known instance
OF tiger of the sea seiZing a human
victim in that vicinity, although they have
been seen there in numbers in the past.
Now comes a dispatch from Oyster Bay
L. l.. announcing that a medium-sized shark
has taken up his abode in the bay, attracted
by a big school of bluefsh. and has been
seriously frightening the bathers.
Are these marine pirates growing more
numerous or more hungry? Or are they
merely emulating the methods of their pro-
totypes on land and displaying their natural
tastes with less restraint? Certainly this Is
apparently an open season for sharks, even
as there was never so much exposure of
grating and crookedness. Maybe the sea
sharks smell prey as the reform wave
washes up the human man-eaters. Here, at
least, is chance for both the ichthyologst
and the sociologist to collaborate and evolve
an explanation of the phenomenon.

Jerome and Mcclellan.

District Attorney Jerome passes from
Leader Murphy to Mayor Mcclellan and
criticises a number of the latter's appoint
ments to office. He compares men by
name, and asserts that in several impor-
tant cases the mayor has served his party
at the expense of the town. The test has
not been fitness for place. but party fealty
and party pull. In this way and In his
own style of expression, Mr. Jerome dis
sents from the opinion of Mr.. McCleIlan's
admirers. that he is the best mayor New
York has ever had AS Mr.. Jerome an
praises him. he is the everyday partisan in
Office, conducting business on a strictly
partisan basis.
1t is due Mr.. Mcclellan to say, however.
that he did not promise the people of New
York a bipartisan administration of their
affairs. He distinctly declared while a
candidate that he believed In partisan gov
ernment and responsibility for the town.
as for the state and the nation. AS the
nominee OF Tammany Hall he could not IN
truth have said anything else. Tammany
was seeking control again on the allegation
that non-partisan government as expressed
in the Low administration had failed. The
town by a large majority supp5rted Tam
many, and Mr.. Mcclellan took office
Let the test, then. be properly made.
Mr.. Mcclellan did not promise the town the
services in office of the best men obtainable
In the community, but OF the best men OBJ
tainable in the raaks OF the party support
ing him. Has he kept that promise? In
making his selections has he picked and
chosen solely with the view of the towns
welfare?. Or has he In any case or in many
cases sought to reward partisan activity on
the recommendation Of this democratic boss

The Summer Outing.


The summer vacation has been the sub
ject of innumerable gibes. Humor and carl
cature have expended themselves upon the
familiar disadvantages of the village or
country hostelry; yet the urban invasion Of
rural districts increases every summer. Be-
fore committing ones self irrevocably to
new conditions 1t is wise to gain disinter-
ested information as to the desirability of
the chosen location. To those in normal
health the only material requisites for
benefit and pleasure are fairly comfortable
lodging, pure air and water and enough
well-prepared simple food; indeed, living
may, for a time, be advantageously re-
duced to its most primitive terms.
Many people are unwilling to forego the
comforts of a well-ordered home for the
possible hardships of country outing. but
to those Injured to luxury there is often a
charm in an actual return to the wild. One
bility pays little regard to minor discom-
forts The assiduous study of personal ease
thwarts its attainment. To break the fet-
ters of the excellent habits which artificial
conditions have forged upon US we should
every now and then rush out into the OPEN
Diseases which flourish under the soft re-
finements Of wealth cannot survive contact
with the bare soil and free air. Running
barefooted in the dew is one feature Of q
well-known hygienic system and a number
of persons have recently testified to the in
yigorating effect of rain on the nude but
active body. These healthful diversions are
not always practicable, but nearly every
one can have a sponge bath. or, what is
far more exhilerating, a morning plunge
into cold water.

Responsibility of Directors.

The suits which Attorney General Mayer
OF New York is filing today against the for
mer directors of the Equitable Life Assur-
ance Company are quite the most important
things of the hour to the business world
Not only are the defendants men of national
reputation in financial circles but the
sums involved are large. and the responsi
blity sought to be fixed by the states off,
Ger is of very great interest everywhere.
We shall witness battle royal In the
courts. The array of legal talent will prob
ably eclipse all previous records. Several
OF the men accused are themselves eminent
lawyers, and the others will seek counsel
from the ranks of the foremost practition-
ers in the country. Speedy trials may be
too much to expect. but the laws delay
should not be unduly invoked

Death From the Sky.

Repeated warnings and many deaths do
not appear to deter people from taking
refuge from midsummer electric storms un-
der trees or in the vicinity of fiagstafYs. It
Is one of the plainest of scientific truths
constantly In evidence during the thunder
storms of the heated season. that atmos-
pheric electricity will seek discharge at
sharp elevated points Tall BUILDINGS
standing out conspicuousiy from the mass
invite the current equally with trees and
masts. There must be a discharge of the
surplus store of the mysterious element
and 1t finds the lines OF least resistance
When cloud charged with electricity
passes close to the earth's surface there fs
an induction of the ground currents In con-
sequence, and this charge heaps up" imme-
diately beneath the cloud. and the great
spark results at the most convenient point
There Is, therefore. cone-shaped area of
danger at every elevation from the surface
varying in size and superficial radius with
the height OF the projection and the near
ness and intensity of the aerial charge
At Coney Island yesterday hundreds of
people fled for shelter from a sudden fierce
rain storm which swept the beach A great
mass huddled under boardwalk in front
of a big bathing pavilion. At the corner
OF this walk rose flagstaff eighty feet In
height. 1t was an ideal conductor for a
discharge from the clouds. and very soon
a terrific bolt fell to the top of the stan.
Five people were instantly killed and a.
score or more were severely shocked ana
burned. Almost simultaneously another
bolt fell at another point on the island,
killing one of number of campers who
had taken refuge beneath a tree
People seem TO dread being wetted by the
rain in summer, although as a rule they
are wearing clothes which will easily dry
and wash without damage. Even bathers
Will rush from the ocean to a place OF shell

or that? The fact that he is a partisan,
and believes in partisan city government,
and promised it when soliciting votes, for
the mayoralty, must not for moment be
forgotten.
At the same time 1t Is easy to understand
and to sympathize with Mr.. Jerome's In
dignation when he sees men whom he con-
siders unfit put forward for responsible
places. His standards are different from
those of either Mr.. Murphy or Mr.. NC
Clellan, and what he says on the matter In
hand is quite as natural as what they have
done. New York in the McCiellan-Low
campaign voted for partisan government
and has been getting It. Does she want q
continuation OF 1t? Her chance to say
comes in November.

From the Chicago inter Ucean.
There are no better indexes of country's
prosperity than the crop reports and condi-
tions Of the steel trade. Reports of crops at
this season ARE not mere predictions, but
statements of condition yield, and they
definitely measure the productfveness Of the
country. AS steel is the basis Of so many
Of our manufactures, an increase in the steel
product means expansion of manufactures.

Defaulting Trustees.
From the London Express.

The constant appearance in criminal

the funds of innocent and confiding trustees
and left them liable for the loss is becom-
ing so serious matter that some new and
better method Of safeguarding money left
