When James Russell Lowell was the
representative Of the United States ID
the court of St. James, says the Boston
Herald, he, as a matter OF course, re-
ceived much attention. After MS re-
turn. while residing in Cambridge, ne
often extended the hospitality OF HIS
home to visiting Englishmen.
Once. while his house was underso-
ing repairs, it mapped that Mrs. Lo"eli
was without any servant. ExpecunS
that she and MI. Lowell would tahe
their evening meal alone, Mrs. LoWeli
prepared a New England dish OF when
she was very fond, known as pfcAeo
fish and cream.
70 her surprise, when Mr.. Lowell re-
turned from Boston he was acconpd-
MED by an English nobleman, WncE'
81 simply had to ask, my dear" ne e2'
planned. ona
It was too late to make any chang1
in the bill of fare and, as MI. Lo"ei
said he had explained to his guest tne'
situation, they proceeded to the dining
room.
The svmpathies of most housekeepeTS
will ! am sure, be with Mrs. LoWeli
when the guest, with a dubious ooA
said: eff Mrs. Lowell will excuse NE
think I will omit the first course.

THE WORLDS UMPIRE
All English View Of the President in

1t NAV be doubted whether the his

Lied by the President as the arbiter
of European affairs Upon Mr.. Roose-
welt. as mediator in the most tren1en-
dous struggle Of modern times. is CEN
tered the anxious interest OF every
European c~hanceilery. The settle
ment of the far Eastern war has long
been dreaded by those who are re-
sponsible for "keening the ring" and
now that peace has come at least
within the 1ange of discussion. they
ooh hopefully to the cool Judgment
OF an INDEPENDENT SPECTATOR who is un-
f"ttered by The ra.nificatiol,s and COM
plications of European International
rolitics. It is now also evident that
Mr.. Rooseve't's good offices have been
sought by the parties clieftv concern
ed in the arrangement of the Moroc-
can difficulty. With such momentous
interests &C mmitted to his charge. the
Presidents position may be aid to be.
if not one of commanding influence.
certainly one which carries with Il
tremendous possibilities for good.
From the EuroDean point OF view.
this new factor for the adjustment Of
delicate International problems may
be cordially welcomed. In its capacity
as a world power the great republic,
comparatively short though its history
has been. has methods
| which for straishtforwardness of pur-
| rose and directness Of aim compare
most favCrably with the more ancient
| Eurcr,car diplomacy. But the policy
of "~fcrthwith" is peculiarly ident11ed
with the personality OF tn" president
himself. Not every man could have
attained the power which Mr.. Rotse-
volt now wic]ds: and no bettcr tesC.-

ell i'm his sasacity could be required
than the present situation.-LondLr

Saturday for trial and forfeited his
bail, was arrested in Washington City

hearing of the arrest, opened up ne

$4,000. This amount was refused,
$50 being demanded, and Mr.. Rhea
