On recent occasion Mr.. Rogers
showed the same swiftness Of Judgment
that has made him successful in bust

Of q leading New York charitable or
ganization in need Of funds in the mid
die of the winter. Finding Mr.. Rogers
busy with mass of correspondence,
and overhearing secretary remind him
that he was to attend board meeting
in fifteen minutes, the hopes Of the visi-
tor fell. Several minutes went by be-
fore the correspondence was finished.
Each tick of the clock reduced the time
for the caller to explain his mission.
Finally, when but three minutes re-
NAMED, Mr.. Rogers received his visitor
and courteously asked the object Of his
call. "a
"I came to solicit a donation from
you, Mr.. Rogers,' replied the other,
this s' morning. 1 PSerhaps we had better

. Reform the Senate First,


; The senate seems to stand as an In
surmountable barrier between the great
combinations of capital and constitutional
rights Of the people as a whole. We are
reminded Of the period in recent English
history when Earl Grey and his cabinet,
acting In the name Of King William w.,
IN 1882, pressed to a successful conclu-
sion the reform bill, which rescued parlia-
ment from the control of the landed arts
tocracy' and made it representative Of
the English people. The abuses in char
tered companies and public institutions
had grown so notorious as to be alarming
to all England. Appeal and persuasion
fell upon deaf ears, just as In the case Of
our own United States senate, and an at
tempt to reform this condition Of affairs
was met with a naughty and defiant re-
sistance, as it Is met here.
When the house Of lords found the Eng
Hsh people were bent on reforms, pre-
saged In the reform BILL it grew defiant
and desperate, and resisted the aprroach-
Ing reform in scenes Of violence such as
were never before witnessed in parliament
The American people find themselves face
to face with conditions calling for heroic
action, such as Earl Grey pressed homS
for the protection Of the English people,
what shall be done with our own house
OF lords? This question is the key of
the arch, and surpasses all others In ma
tlonal Importance, for we may assai1 the
beef trust with imprecations, descant
upon the wrongs of the paper trust, rail
at the Steel corporation, grid on our ar
NOR for battle with the coal leviathan,
vince resentfully in the coils of the STAN
dard OH octopus, and demand more strin.
gent and just restraint of these devouring
giants. and even elect almost unanimous
iy, presidents on platforms demanding
Justice to all the people in railroad man
agement, but ambitions, hopes and efforts
all. fall dead at the threshold of the
United States senate. When the people
realize that there will be no reform until
the senate is reformed, they will take the
tran that leads to the open, and to ulti-
mate triumph. The Journa is doing
much to awaken the conscience and the
patriotism Of the country, and it is to be
hoped that the agitation will spread and
intensity until public sentiment crystal
Lies and brings about the first es-
.sential reform-the choosing Of United
States senators by the people.

Marchioness Oyama, wife Of the Jap
anese Napoleon, is the. Mrs. Aston Of
Toxic. A precocious high-school pupil
when only 10 years old, she won an
American education at the expense Of
Japan. Coming here in her 18th year,
she was prepared for Vassar college in
Connecticut private school, at 21 was
q Vassar graduate, at % the wife, OF
Baron Oyama, and now, in her 42nd
year, is recognized as the most versatile
woman in the empire. She won fame
years ago as an expert fencer, swimmer
and horsewoman. AS student of bot
any, zoology and foreign languages she
is in the first rank. The marchioness is
the foremost authority in her country
on Shakespeare: Her intimate knoWl-
sent her to the head Of society in Toxic,
and foreigners Of distinction who have
attended her receptions regard her as
one of the most brilliant Of the world g

tion, the marchioness selected England
as the school-home for - her two
daughters and son. Marquis Oyama
studied military tactics in Paris, taking
a three years. course. The two years
following in England in the observation
of the English won him many warm
friends there, which was the prevailing
reason in sending the children to British
schools.
