Care was also taken that Mr.. Mey-

Contact" remarked European
ambassador, "is what the President has
been endeavoring to establish between
Russia and Japan. To do this it was
necessary to obtain from one side or
the other some expression favorable to
peace. Japan has refrained absolutely
from giving any indication as to what
her terms would be, on the ground that
this would be interpreted by Russia as
sign OF weakness.
JAPAN'S ATTITUDE.
Whether upon receiving from Count
Cassini an official expression that the

to obtain a statement on this sub
ject from Japan, remains to be seen.
| Diplomats, however, recall the state
ment Of Mr.. Takahira some days ago
to the effect that when Russia really
wanted to know Japan's terms she
could easily find them -out without
communicating directly with Toxic.
1t is declared on good authority that
thus far no circular has been ad-
dressed to the American ambassadors
abroad. but that their instructions have
been informal, though dictated directly
from the White House.

ANCIENT FURNITURE,

The Couch Was Most Important In
Homes of Egyptians.
The couch was one of the most i'm

homes Of the people Of ancient Egypt.
1t was used at meal times to recline
upon, as well as at night for a bed.
Probably the earliest mention Of the
bed Is to be found in II. Kings, ".

Elisha visited the Shumenite about

Back of the coming home of the body
Of John Paul Jones, to rest in the crypt
Of our new Naval Academy, lies the
story of General Horace Porter's six
years quest, impeded by many OBJ
stacles, successful at last, with over
Vhemling evidence in favor OF the iden-
tiication of the body. The full story
Of this research General Porter tells for
the first time in the October Century.
"Upon assuming charge of our en-
bassy in Paris and finding myself
among the old landmarks which are
still honored there as recalling the
many historic incidents in the soiourn
Of Paul Jones in that brilliant capital, !"
says General Porter, 81 felt a deep
sense of humiliation as an American
citizen in realizing that our first and
most fascinating naval hero had been
lying for more than a century in an I'M
known and forgotten grave and that nc
successful attempt had ever been made
to recover his remains and give them
appropriate sepulture in the land upon
whose history he had shed go much
luster." -" IT. H.

is one showing the face of the recovered
body, compared with the Hudon bust.

WILD AND WOoLLY WEST.

Antics Of Steer MaySFurther Middle
Eastern Ideas.
It is much to be regretted that news
got abroad Of the steer running amuck
In the streets Of Alton, since the in
telligence Is likely further to embar-
rass US In our efforts to convince the
effete and obtuse east that our mid
country western metropolis are alto

1t is with no, little difficulty even
at this late day that the confined con-
servatism Of New England admits
that we are on the map as real cities
and not as mere rough centers Of the
Wild life Of the plains. Tremendously
good many people lover east still
cling to the notion that everything
this side Of the Alleghanies Is a sort
of vague beyond, peopled principally
by buffalo, Indians, range cattle, cow
punchers, sage hens and prairie dogs,
and occasionally enlivened by the
more conspicuous types Of Buffalo
Bill or a Roosevelt but wholly I'M
possible as a habitat. =

have it go out over the wires that "a
steer brought up from St. Louis. to
Alton Wednesday held the streets I'M
til II p. NJ, terorizing the citizens and
cutting up prankS. At North
Alton, among other things, the steer

As be piped across the meadows sweet

When the bloom was ON the clover, and

And my happy heart brimmed Ovar-in

In the days g.ne by. when my naked

By the honeysuckle tangles where the

And the nipples of the river Tipped the
moss along the brink.
Where the placid-eyed and lazy-footed
cattle came to drink,
And the fitting snipe stood fearless Of
the ttuant's maynard cry,
And the splashing of the swimmer, In the

The childish faith in fairies. and Alad-

For life was ike a story, holding neither
