ing had fight with his father on the
night of the latter's disappearance, but

By a unanimous vote the La Crosse
City Council has demanded the resigna-
ton of City Engineer Frank c. Powell.
Powell is charged with being interested
in city contracts and with improper con-
duct of the engineering department. but
the Councils action was precipitated by
a recent scandal in which several of the
leading men and women of La Crosse
were involved and as a result of which
Mrs. Powell committed suicide. 4 $10,-
900 suit is pending in which Powell is
suing L. P. Philippi, wealthy business
man. for the alienation of his wife's af-
fections. Powell refuses to resign and
will demand an investigation.

Whales and Shipwrecks.

An iceberg or an abandoned hulk has
not infrequently led to the loss of
vessel coming in contact Herewith in
the night, and the American Syren
asserts that it has been demonstrated
to a certainty that whales may have
been the cause Of the wrecking Of some
missing ships. Among other cases cit
ed by the Syren is that of steamer
which was nearly capsized off the coast
Of Washington by whale which got
underneath the ship. The same whale
it was supposed previously collided
with battleship and scraped the paint
from her sides.
In the whaling seas, this authority
says, vessels have been attacked by
whales and so seriously damaged that
they have had to be abandoned. Oft
en- whales have been found with splin-
tiers from ships fixed in their heads.
Ocean liners have encountered whales
and in the collisions passengers were
shaken up and the deck fittings started
from their fastenings. Sufficient has
been proved of the powers of a whale
to Indicate that ship may occasional
~ be posted as missing owing to
laundering after collision with one Of
these monsters of the Deep

Annexing Canada's Girls.

DR.. Osler's last word before sailing
for England was of youth, not of age.
In speech before the AIcGill Univer-
sity society he addressed his fellow
Canadians and advised them to keep
their women at home if they cannot
keep the men. Said he:
Why should Canada be annexed when
Canadians are annexing so much them
selves? I want you to stop the Canadian
girls from coming over here, stop bringing
the girls over here 1t is a great shame
You must urge the girls to stay at home.
1t will take something stronger than
mere platitudes to keep the girls Of
the Dominion on the other side of the
line. The new woman movement in
this country opens opportunities to the
Canadian fair ones which they cannot
have at home. They are found in the
ranks of trained nurses, stenographers,
efficient saleswomen and other first
class employment. They are capable
students before coming here and read
lily find positions.

Fruit From Russian Agitation.


Whatever may be the limitations of
the cars ukase proclaiming complete
religious liberty throughout the Rus
sian empire in the direction of freedom
of domicile to the Jews, the document
is of momentous importance in the
history of the liberation of the the
masses of Russia. 1t is certainly one
Of the most important results of the
revolutionary agitation now taking
place. by this ukase the various Or
ders of the priesthood among the Old
Believers are recognized, and their
priests have the right to celebrate mar
riages, a right heretofore restricted to
priests of the Orthodox Russian church.
Lutherans, Jews and Roman Catholics
are now accorded the right to erect
houses of worship without restriction
as to place or situation.
The Old Believers have suffered all
manner of repressions since they sepa-
rated from the Orthodox church over a
dispute about ritualism $50 years ago.
They number 100000 souls and
among them are wealthy merchants.
This sect has persistently opposed the
union Of church and state and is faith
full to the "old ritual of the Greek
church.

Mr.. Bernard Shaw.

The sudden bound of Bernard Shaw
in popularity in London is accounted
for in part in the fact that a number
of people who like his brilliancy. vet
detest his views, encourage him under
the impression that he is not dangerous
to have around because he has the in
stinct of humor and the courage to be
funny. His name, coupled with some
comment in recognition of his powers,
frequently appears in every sort of
journal, and the theaters where his
plays are on the stage are crowded
with people Of prominence. Even King
Edward has witnessed the gross car
feature John Bulls Other island
AS for Mr.. Shaw himself, he is under
fifty years of age and has won all his
fame since forty. He is a strict vege-
tartan, teetotaler and never uses to-
bacco. He detests shoeblacking and
starch and is called the cleanest man
in England. A writer in recent num-
Der of the Bystander, published in Lon
don, says:
At present Mr.. Shaw has only one con-
Y1ction-that some thing higher than man
is within the resources of the universe;
81 it. ~ '''0i'
In an essay entitled "On Going to
Church. Shaw outlines his creed in
these words: ''The creative intellect
needs stimulant Some find it in beer,
others in brandy; some in opium, 9th
ers in wine and love. 1 find it in the
church." Offhand Mr.. Shaw could be
an anarchist and lives like Puritan.

Regulating the ssTip'' Evil.

SpasmOdic attempts to. reform the
nuisance of giving tips meet with the
fate of many other reforms and end
in some sort of recognition of the evil
and system of regulating it. Land
lords and restaurant keepers, acting in
good faith, find themselves powerless,
| because there is a class of moneyed
patrons who enjoy ostentation or who
really believe that the only way to
get attention is to bride the servants.
Recently the United States naval au-
| thorities framed an elaborate and par
ticularized scale of tips for officers Of
the service while travelling at home and
| abroad. The scale for this country is
as follows:
Single meals, tip 10 cents.
Tips on train, SO cents day.
Tips will not be allowed on parlor car
except on journey of five hours or longer.
Tips at hotels 50 cents a day, but not to
| exceed 81 a week at one hotel.
The scale is part Of system regu-
lating the expenses of officers, with a
view to curling extravaganza.
On foreign tours an officer may tip
the steamer servants $1.5O day on a
six days trip and 81 day on trip
of fifteen days or longer. At foreign
hotels the officer is permitted to give
away $3.50 week on tips. The ra-
pacious parasite of the continent will
doubtless shun the American officer
who attempts, to live up to these reg
ulations. The home scale Is as liberal
as that in vogue among well to do and
intelligent people on ordinary occa-
sions.

The Real Paul Jones

Americans love the rough and ready
type of man and will prefer to think
of Paul Jones fighting with bare arms,
like any common sailor, rather than
contemplate him in the character of a
gentleman at home and honOred in the
courts of Europe. But since he fought
so well his being gentleman did no
harm, as Lincoln said of the German
princeling in the civil war.
Paul Jones was known as Virginia
gentleman of education, estate and
standing when he became captain in
the newly formed navy Of the colonies
in 1775. In June of that year, before
the Declaration of independence, the
marine committee of the colonies re-
quested John Paul Jones, Gent, Of
Virginia, master mariner, to lay before
the committee such information and
advice as may seem useful i'm assisting
the said committee to discharge it's
labors.''
One paragraph in Jones reply may
have been the text of the late Admiral
SIMPSONS famous thesis on the quail
fications of an officer of the navy
when opposing the promotion of a
common sailor. Jones wrote:
1t Is by no means enough that an officer
of the navy should be a capable mariner
He must be that, of course, but also a
great deal more. IIe should be a gentle
man of liberal education, refined manners,
of personal honor.
The future admiral drew his own
portrait in that outline, but did not ex-
aggerate the picture. Before the Mar
quis de Lafayette had learned to APP
preciate the rugged American. char
acter in undress he wrote to Wash
ington from Paris recommending Paul
Jones for commander Of the squadron
France was fitting out to war upon
Great Britain, adding, Captain Jones
possesses, far beyond any officer in
your service, that peculiar aplomb,
grace of manner, charm of person and
dash of character always required to
captivate the French fancy
Certainly Lafayette never had rea-
son to blush for the shortcomings Of
his American protege, for Paul Jones
proved himself before the courts Of
the continent skillful courtier and
able diplomat as well as a gentleman
in polite society An Englishwoman
who met the hero Of the Bonhomme
Richard in Paris after the victory de-
scribed her surprise at finding the
rough, desperate renegade and pirate
of her imagination "a most courteous,
graceful gentleman, of slight build and
rather delicate, not to say effeminate,
cast of features, faultlessly dressed, ex-
quisitely polite, altogether handsome
and speaking French fluently." This
admirer wisely concluded that the
American sea wolf, $50 agreeable on
land, was doubtless not so charming
to meet at sea-

Variety In Food.

Nature has already decided, It would
seem, some questions which puzzle
people as to the kind of food the hui
man body needs for its nourishment.
Teeth are supplied in order that man
may chew the meat of birds and ami
mails, and a variety of ferments to di-
gest starchy foods are produced by the
glands.
The palpable lesson Of physiology is
that mans digestive apparatus is SO
complex and adaptable that compo-
site diet is the best for every one. A
mixed diet exercises the digestive or
gans impartial|y and is less likely
than any other to contain an excess or
convey a deficiency of any particular
class Of foodstuff. A person trained
to mixed diet has the power Of
adapting the stomach to limited
choice when that becomes necessary,
as during sickness and upon journey.
Happy is the one who can say, II can
eat anything"
In some respects the human body is
like the soil of the earth. The farmer
feeds the soil according to the crop he
wants to gather. Mems occupations
impose a draft upon the system which
must be paid by the nourishment put
into it. With them the result depends
upon the capacity for assimilating GER
tain foods and putting power where it
is needed. There can be no hard and
fast rule about this, for, as the ia
miliar aphorism expresses it, Zone
mans meat is another mans poison"
Furthermore, rolling mill muscles will
not stay ''hard as nails" on a diet of
angel cake.

A Parliament of Man.

The meeting of the international con-
gress at Brussels is a sequel to the or
ganization of the interparliamentary
congress at st. Louis last year. The
establishment Of The Hague court of
arbitration was a step in the direction
Of worlds legislative body, and it is
expected that an international congress
will give to that court jurisdiction and
power which will virtually do away
with the necessity for arms and de-
Tense. The delegates of the United
States to the meeting at Brussels,
twenty five in number, are enthusiastic
over the propaganda, and European
nations are manifesting deep interest
in the movement.
Philosophers and poets have long
dreamed of state of universal peace
and understanding. Tennyson in his
prophetic poem, "Locksley Hail." wrote
Of
The parliament of man, the federation of
the world.
Mankind in general has always in
sisted that might alone could establish
and maintain right between nations.
The growth Of the arbitration idea,
however, leads to faith in the ultimate
domination of reason over passion and
force. So called international law is
found to be weak, and the consent of
the world on new basis of agreement
is more than a mere possibility.

The grand jury of the District of Co.
lumbia caught tartar in a defendant
OF criminal suit, who denies that
there is such thing in law as the Dis
trict of Columbia. This recalls the IA
nous "coal hole' case, familiar to the
legal fraternity. A Mrs. Doe sued a
city for damages incurred by falling
into an open coal hole 'on Newton
street." The city's attorney promptly
put in the defense that the plaintiff
did not fall into coal hole on New
ton street; that there is no coal hole on
Newton street; that there is no Newton
street.

Recently dog ran about the rooms

vestigation proved that a young wo-
man visitor was lying unconscious
from escaping gas. The dogs demon
stration saved her life. The moral of
this is that q barking dog usually
means that something is wrong on the
premises. All depends upon the kind
of dog, and it is wiser to keep pet

Assisting and Locating Immigrants.

Assisting and Locating Immigrants.
The idea of helping worthy immi-
grants and determining their location
is shown to be feasible by the impor-
tant work being done by the Salvation
Army. Said Commander Booth Tuck
er recently:
Last year the Salvation Army carried
1000 persons from England to Canada,
which is starving for population. We
carried them in our own ship. 1t will not
be long before we will be carrying Eng
lishmen not by thousands. but by tens of
thousands, not only in Canada, but to New
Zealand, Australia. India and South AZ
RIGA
We didn't dump our immigrants in Que
bee as the United States dumps immi-
grants in Ellis island, but dropped six
here and eight there and dozen in an
other place, wherever they were needed
Every man who left England for Cam
ada knew before he started where he was
going, what he was going to do when he
got there and what wages he would re-
ceive.
1t has been said that this plan Of as
s1sting immigrants to homes shows a
deeper interest in foreigners than in
native settlers. But, on the other hand,
the foreigners are coming anyway and
unless steered and helped to the lands
which need them will herd in vast col
umns in cities, to the detriment of the
whole country.
