Unjust Criticism of the Rich.

Some persons who teach the practice of the
simple life are quite severe in their criticisms
Of the very rich people on the prodigality OF
their expenditures. The latest of these critics
is Marie Corelli, who attacks whom she de.
dominates ''the over rich FOOLS By the
simple life is meant plain clothes and plain
food. Miss Corelh criIicises the leaders Of
the world of fashion for their costly lunches
and rich gowns. What would be extravaganza
with persons of ordinary incomes, is not ex-
travaganee with the very rich. And if the
very rich wore plain clothes and lived upon
simple fare, the world about them would not
be slow in calling them mean and misery.
The critics of the millionaire class take a
one sided view. When one of the very rich
gives ball the cos, goes TO the florist for
decorations, the caterer for the tempting
viands, the walters and the provision dealers,
scattering thousands Of dollars among persons
who have to work for living. Aud the cost
of rich gowns aud expensive hats Of the mil
honaires goes to the manufacturers, the mo-
dists aud milliners.
When millionaire builds million dollar
mansion; spends hundreds of thousands for
its furnishings; gives luxurious entertainments.
he is benefting his fellow man IS well as graf
flying their tastes. The money goes to labor,
and it is better thai labor should earn It's re-
ward than to obtain money by gifts. Earned
money is appreciated; gifts are calculated to
induce idleness. Gifts to churches and gifts
to educational institutions are Of doubtful
propriety. They dwarf the devotion Of the
members to the church, and the richly en-
dowed colleges and universities use their
means in study and research in the non-es-
sentiais Of life

The Russo,Japanese War.

The Russian Baltic feet, which sailed last
fall for the East, and Admiral Togo's Japan
ese feet have not met in combat. The where.
abouts Of neither fleet seems 10 be definitely
known. The Russian feet has been in the
China Sea for about four weeks. As it ap-
several thousand miles, apparently to intercept
the Russians, and at one time it was reported
the hostile fleets were within forty miles Of
each other. A battle has been expected for
a month past. but the Russian and japanese
commanders seem to be maneuvering for
position. A second division of Rojestvensky' 4
feet, under command of Admiral Nebogatohf,
is reported to be endeavoring to make june.
ture with the main fleet, and latest reports
state that it is not far away.
1t is reported that the Russian ships at
Vladivostok have left that port with the inten
ton of sailing to the support of Rojestvensky.
Should all the Russian ships in the east be
united, it will be formidable adversary to
Togo's trained sailors and gunners, and when
Togo and Rojestvensky meet there will be a
great naval engagement. The result will mean
much to both nations, especially if it is fight
to finish. 1t is the great issue at stake that
makes both commanders cautious. The delay
in an engagement cannot be much further
postponed, however, and battle may be ex.
pected any day.
In Manchuria there is little activity. 0yama
and Linevitch seem to be waiting for the naval
battle. Skirmishes are frequent, but there has
been no important engagements since the
battle at Hardin.
