manly art Of self-defense is almost as
important as the three RS.
That idea Is too advanced for the
most of us.
If you will look over the boys In the
school near you, and also remember
the golden days Of your own boyhood
you will see why there is no need Of
the services Of a professor of boxing
in the average public school. Bless
there. They learn the use Of their
fists long before they reach the Fifth
Reader. They have their little fights
at recess and during the noon hour,
and after school. Few of the contests
are based on malice, and beyond a
bunged nose and few tears streak
ing a grimy face, they do little harm.
The average boy with blood in his
veins would be a master. He wants
use his fists or suffer at the hands of
a youth a size larger than he is. And
he learns In the rough and tumble
school Of experience.
He yearns for strength and muscle
and wind development, and sometimes
he has sense enough to cut out to-
bacco and other bad habits for no bet
ter purpose than to be able, some
day, to lick neighbours boy.
OF course this isn't the higher life
1t gives mothers the horrors, and
many a lad who fights at school en-.
dures punishment at home, later. be.
cause Of 1t.
But things are as they are. Yor
cannot change them unless you car
change human nature.
And SO the schools will continue tt
teach the art of self-defense in tn,
good old way that your boy under.
stands.

to purchase the bare necessities of his
little poverty stricken home where his

him on half the principal stages in
the country lies i'll.
Karl Gardner is In the depths. The
one-time sunny faced laugh producer,
the author of little ballad that is
still remembered though until the ben
eft performance half the people in the
country did not know the writer was
still among the living. is forced to ac-
cept charity. When he was the funny
man in TOO Proud to Beg" he met ev-
cry little fearful turn in the plot with
laugh. He turned everything into
fun and carried his audiences with him
in his happy way until all forgot every
thing but to laugh.
There are many Of us who can still
remember when Gardeners little song,
Little Buch of Voilets," was one Of
the most popular ballads of the day.
To those who do, the knowledge that
the author of those lines is the object
of charity is enough to bring the tears

Perhaps today, Karl" Gardner, sit
ting disconsolate by the side of the
bed upon which lies his wife, wasted
and thin, remembers when he penned
those lines. Perhaps he regrets that
in his days of prosperity, he gave with
a prodigal hand to all who seemed to
need help, for he was liberal then,
too liberal for his own good. But it
Is more probable that he remembers

be forgotten quickly nor forgiven by
the people. Roosevelt, more probably
than any chief executive since the
days of Washington, is truly the Pres
ident of all the people. He has the re-
spect and the admiration of such a
vast majority of the citizens of the
United States that the minority is al
most too small to consider. His friends
are not counted by the bounds of any
party. And when man insults him,
he insults the bulk Of the American
public.

THE MAKING OF VICIOUS CAR.
TooNs.

Clinton Herald.-The recent assas-
sination of Duke Sergius by bomb
thrower has resulted in some cartoons
which should cause the American peo-
pie to blush for shame. AS cruel
murder, no defense can be made for
the miserable wretch who hurled the
deadly bomb; as an incident Of inter-
national Importance a bad example
has been set for anarchists, not only
in this but in all countries. In all de-
cency the crime should have been Sc
verely condemned in every quarter,
for the reason 1t was anarchy, in addi-
ton to murder, notwithstanding the
fact that the victim was the most au-
tocratic member of the Russian i'm
perial family.
But Notwithstanding these facts,
which no sane man can deny, cartoon
lists in this country have made cheap
wittfcism out of the assassination. A
cartoon should show some humor, but
this subject was utterly devoid Of any
humorous features and such cartoons
as were printed in some Of the news
papers abused the freedom of free
press. which is the boast Of the Ameri-
can people.
When one considers the cartoons
time Of the death Of President Nc
Kfnley he is led to believe
Europeans must have looked
with scorn on some of the car
toons on the death Of Duke Sergius
The cartoons printed at the tine Of the
death Of the president were Of a con-
solatory order. Even the Spanish
newspapers smarting under the hui
initiating defeat that nation had Just
suffered In war with this country, die
not print anything which would wound
the sensibility Of the most patriotic Of
Americans. It is no time to jest wher
mangled body reposes in casket.

MR.. MoRLEY,s IMPRESSIONS.

While John Morley was visitor in
the United States he was taken pref
ty fast gait. There were many things
he saw and heard which he did not
fully understand. And there were
many others which he did I'M
derstand. Though he did not APP
pead ready to express opinions on
this country when he was on this side
Of the water, he has since returning
home, loosened his tongue and in a
speech to his constituents recently, he
gave his impressions of America and
told his hearers of the lessons to be
learned in America by Englishmen.
To Mr.. Morley. the greatest ques-
ton before the American people today
is that of the races He viewed with
alarm" the increase. in the colored pop
ulation and drew a parallel and a
moral from this country's history as
compared with the movement now on
foot in South Africa To quote from
his speech:
| II that movement went on there
might at the end of this century be a
/ population of something like sixty or
even eighty millions of colored people
in the United States. That was the
retribution that followed wrong. What
did it come from? Africans were
brought into the southern states ex-
plotting land much as Chinese are
now being brought into South Africa
to work the mines. People might have
to wait even fifty or 100 years before
heaven sent in bill, but what sort of
eventual harvest could be expected
when the foundations of state were
laid upon an inferior civilization? We
were, by the importation of Chinese
labor, changing the base and founda.
ton Of our state in South Africa. Some
day the white men there would have to
pay the penalty of folly or wrong now
being perpetrated.
Mr.. Morley's view seems rather IL.
logical when one remembers that in
Africa the real pioneer is the Kaffir
that the white man is the usurper, and
that the foundations of the state there
as in reality in this country, are built
not upon an inferior race but upon the
greatest and most progressive race the
world has ever known-a mixture OF
many nationalities but all, or nearly
all, Caucasians.
The fact that is borne in upon one
who reads Mr.. Morley's criticisms is
that he did not stay long enough In
America or else he was imposed upon
by some one who either wanted tc
play joke or did not himself know
the facts with regard to America. II
is improbable that the Englishmer
who listened to him or read his ad
4 dress in the hope Of learning some
thing of their American cousins are
doomed to disappojntment

Of Won Ogden Vogt, general secretary
of the United Society of Christian
Endeavor, presented at the interna

vas a statistical record of growth and
achievement. There are 66,772 so
cjeties of Christian Endeavor. 49,339
in the United States and Canada. and
l7,433 in other lands. The ten de
nominations in the United States

from the lists the many societies in
neglected districts that for any cause
have been disbanded or withdrawn

MORE DEVLIN BANKS FAIL.
Two Illinois Institutions Go Down in
the Crash.

La Sale, Ill.,, July 6.-The Spring
Valley National bank closed it's doors
yesterday morning after a run which
began Monday afternoon. The run
was precipitated by reports from To
peka, Kan, regarding the condition
Of President Devlin's affairs. Mon
day afternoon the Spring Valley bank
was called on for SIT 900. This was
followed by run by depositors, who
drew $4,000 before the bank closet /.
Yesterday morning the bank did not
open. It is estimated that the banks
deposits amounted to 100000. The
National Bank of Toluca also closed
it's doors yesterday morning. Dev-
lin is also president of the Toluca
bank.

of the failure of the First National
bank assumed different phase yes
terday when Kansas City creditors
petitioned the United States district
court to declare Charles J. Deylin
bankrupt The petition was made
returnable July 20 and the effect is
to prevent further attachments of
Devlin's property and set aside real
estate valued at 100000 which Dew
lin Monday transferred to the failed
bank. The action does not affect
the life insurance, which is in Mrs.
Devlln's name, and which she insists
