FORGE RULERS INTO WAR.
Evil Spirit Pervading the Ruling Class Makes Monarchs Strive
 for Gain.

Wars between states are not ire quent. and are decidedly shorter-we could hardly. for instance. think of a Hundred Years war. and doubt the possibility of a war lasting a genera tlon-hut the conduct of the peoples in respect to war shows definite retro gression. says the London Spectator The evil spirit Of the old ruling class with it's ambitions and it's thirst for aggrandisement. has spread downward almost to the bottom. The peoples are hungering for plunder as much as ever the old kings and nobles were. They want more trade they say. and by trade they mean more conquered mar kets In which they can establish a mo- n6poly
 That is what the Germans mean when they urge their government to risk war for the sake of ascendency in Morocco. and so to place their peo- pie 'in the sunshine:" that is what all the sacrifices for great fleet mean in the same country. and the eager ap- plause of sovereign who has an ambi tious Weltpolitik, that is what the French mean when they seek aggran- disement in western Africa. and that is what We mean when we fret in a. rather feeble way because our rivals. contend successfully against us in se- curing commercial custom. IL is true we do not try to monopolize. but part at least of that forbearance arises from profound. and usually true convic- tion that free trade helps us to make profit in all markets.
 This passion for moro profit is the root of the present restless jealousy under which every nation suspects it's neighbor. and begs of it's government to obtain more territory In which sub ject populations can be compelled to buy it's goods Sometimes this passion shows itself In rather base as we'll as foolish forms. the governments being urged by masses Of voters to employ their Influence" to secure "conees- sions. often for individual firms The diplomatists. to do them justice. dis like this pressure exceedingly: 1t seems to them like asking bribes; but they must, of course. obey instructions. And SD in Picking railway and mining concessions are granted to avoid men aces; and in Constantinople loans are granted and in Morocco loans will be granted on condition that the money shall be spent in buying goods. usually cannon from the countries giving the accommodation IL is the pla" of the old money-lenders, who made their customers take part of their loans in pictures or bad champagne.

Russia's Loss of Prestipe

Never did a nation lose prestige as Russia has lost it under the regime of Nicholas. A few years ago his coun- try was held in awe as one of power. Within the last few years this has changed and Russia looms forth a dis credited bully. Before the war she made mess of her diplomacy. Then she proved herself weakling on land Next she revealed herself a weakling as a sea power. Now, to top it all. this failure in diplomacy and war is disclosing her impotence in domestie crises. Incompetency. vacillation. short-sightedness. pettiness. bravado. failure-these have made Nicholas reign blight and a tragedy It will not excuse him to say that he is the victim of circumstances. Strong men control circumstances. That is a part of their rength-Louisville Courier Journal

CLEVER NEWS GATHERING.
How the Associated Press Got the News of the New Pope's
 Election.

Then came the conclave for the election of new pope. It was to be secret and every effort was made to ing public. writes Melville F. Stone in The Associated Press" in Century brick wall was constructed about the hall to prevent anyone having ac- cess to it. But. to the amazement of every one, the Associated Press had daily report of all that hap pened. One of the members of the noble guard was an Associated Press man. Knowing tn devotion of the average Italian for the dove, he took with him into the conclaye chamber. his pet dove, which was a homing pigeon trained to go to our office. But Cardinal Rampola could not be deceived-he ordered the pigeon killed.
 Other plans. however, were more successful, Laundry lists sent out with the soiled linen of cardinal and and physician prescriptions sent to a pharmacy, proved to be code mes sages which were deciphered in our office. We were enabled not only to give complete and accurate story of the happenings within the conclaye. but We announced the election of the new pope. which occurred about II a. m. in Rome, so promptly that, ow. inS to the difference in time, it was printed in the morning papers of San Francisco Of that day. We were also enabled to send the announcement back 10 Europe before it was received from Rome direct. and it was our message that was printed in all the European capitals. The Italian au. thorities did not interfere with these messages.

DAUGHTERS OF NOBODY.
Ultra Fashionable Society Shown Up by Rejected Applicant for
 Membership.

"The fad of tracing ones ancestors back as far as possible has a firmer hold in the east than in the west" said Mortimer F. Walker. of Boston. relates the Milwaukee Sentinel. "One winter l spent some time in a certain south ern city which is noted for it's blue blopded and exclusive inhabitants. There was much jealousy in the high est social circles. as there were two factions which desired the honor of being the original grandees. Finally the leader of one faction gathered to- gether few friends and started a society known as the Daughters of Ferdinand de Soto.
 This was supposed to be the ultra fashionable society of the city, and one by one the aspiring matrons pro- iuced the indisputable proof that they

BRUSH YOUR STRAW HAT.
That Is the Way to Keep It Protected from the Marring Effects
 of Rain

"Yes know" said the hat man, people never think of brushing their straw hats, the straw doesn't seem to be hat made to be brushed. the dust doesn't show on it so much. and so they brush all their other hats and let their straw hats go.
 But if they would brush their straw hats as they do the others they would keep fresh and good- looking much longer; this is not so much on account of the brushing itself as be- cause of the protection that brushing 1t, keeping it clean, gives it from the effects of moisture.
 What puts straw hat out of busi- ness, in appearance. is rain Let drops of rain fall on dusty hat and every drop spreads and fixes the dust on which it falls and makes the hat

Greatness of the Czar.

Among the people of Russia are many stereotyped phrases expressive of the greatness of the czar's power. and of the awe in which he is held. Others, however. fail to suggest that the Little Father" is all-powerful A few of the latter kind are as follows: Even the czar's lungs cannot blow out the sun" The crown does not protect the czar from headache" The hand of the czar has only five fingers. !" What the czar cannot accomplish time car do.' Tt is not more difficult for death to carry fat czar than a lean peasant"

the unique that was showing us around saved dads life by pushing him along, before the woman got a chance to brain him with the washboard
 The women mostly had on these baggy Turkish trousers, like the Zouayes wear, and a jacket, and cloth around their Reads, and they acted as though if the next meal came along all right they would be in luck We saw a few women pretty white, and they were Circassian slaves, with big eyes and hoops in their ears. and a little different clothes on, but there were none that dad would buy at an auction or at a bargain sale, if they were marked down to 99 cents
 We passed one woman running an American sewing machine, and dad said he'd bet she was an American, and he went up to her and said: "Hel- To. sis.' She stopped the machine, looked up at dad with sort of Bowery expression. and said: "Gwan.

Too Much Horse Sense

In the classes in equitation at Fort Riley the horses soon become as apt pupils as the riders. On account of this fact, says the Kansas City Journal. some of the most important lessons to be derived from this course by the men are lacking. In order to carry out the intent of the riding school the depart
 ment has to bring in unbroken horses almost constantly. A carload of wild Indian ponies arrived few days ago

Why He Wept.

During the funeral of one of the Rothschild family in Paris a beggar was noticed standing among the on lockers sobbing bitterly. A bystander touched by the mans grief. endeavored to comfort him. Do not weep so bit terly. my poor friend" he said. See. even his relatives are able to restrain their grief more than you are doing. :" Then. as new idea struck him: Surely. you are no relation of M de Rothschild?" ?" 'N-no, sobbed the beggar.
