Pathological View of Bribery.

Gov Garvin Of Rhode Island has not
much confidence in the deterrent
effect Of laws against corrupt prac-
tees, because in the present degrade
ton Of public sentiment on the sub
iect such laws are easily evaded. as
are laws regarding taxation of per-
sonal property. The laws of our
states against corrupt practices are
not enforced as similar laws are in
Great Britain. Being a physician, he
gives what we may call a pathological
view of the disease of bribery: THE
underlying cause of bribery in cleo
tons is that the vote is worth very
much less to its rightful owner than
it is to the candidate. Now, if this
condition could be reversed, so that
the possessor Of the ballot should
esteem it almost priceless, and the
candidate find that to him purchas-
ed vote was of little use. then bribery
would cease. Boston Herald.

liked the quiet of the town, its cathe-

marshes and some of the families to
whom he was introduced. In one of
the families he found his wife. Be-
side one of the ponds, watching duck
dive, came the inception Of his great
story, "Vingt Mile Lieues Sous les
Mers." He worked in an old tower,
where he had only pitch pine furni-

STRANGERS MADE AT HOME
Hospitality a Cardinal Virtue Through
out Africa.

Hospitality may be considered as
one Of the characteristics Of not only
the Veis, but Of the whole African
race, says writer in the Century
It is considered the duty of every CT
tizen to entertain strangers without
the smallest compensation. Places
of rest stand always open, and when
these are found occupied by strangers,
a man goes and tells his wife who
will send her servants with water
for the strangers to wash their feet;
for, as they wear no shoes, they
naturally need such accommodation
AfterWard rooms and cloth wrappers
are given them, food is brought from
all quarters, or they are invited to
eat with the people. They continue
to be so provided for, even if they
stay months. Their garments are
also washed and returned to them.

WRITES OF WARS HORRORS
Graphic Description of Fighting That Preceded
the Capture of Mukden,

Verely wounded as he was, kept up
the fight until the bayonet wound put
an end to his life.
One might go on for columns de
scriblng this field. The dead are scat
tered everywhere and each body tells
its own story.
Many Of them lie where they fell,
killed on the instant; others have
tried to crawl away only to die in the
effort and still others lie in attitudes
which show their awful suffering be-
fore merciful death came to them.
In the village Of Likampu itself the
scene to-day is even more horrible.
Here there had been street fighting
and every road, every lane, every
compound and every we'll has its
heaps Of dead. The fighting here was
very fierce and much of it was with
cold steel. Scores died by the bayOnet
and CHASTITY wounds are visible on
every side. Dozens of terribly man
gled bodies show the awful work of
the deadly hand grenades. In many
cases Cead Russians and Japanese
lay side by side, their hands actually
closed on each other in the death
grip.
Many houses had been set On fire
by the Russian shells and in them
can be seen the half-burned bodies OF
wounded men who crawled there for
shelter only to to meet death in an
even more horrible form.
We rode rapidly through the village,
for the sight was net q pleasant one.
Great fires were burning on every
side, for the Japanese were at work
cremating their dead. and the odor
of burning human flesh added a new
horror to the already long list.
And remember that this is only one
small corner of the battlefield: all
along a line leo miles long they are
lying though not so thickly as they
are IN this cornfeld.-Will H. Brill,

Science the Farmers Aid,

The government spends $4,000
year in maintaining agricultural ex-
pertinent stations. To those unfa-
miliar with the vast benefit that has
accrued from this branch of the fed
eral service the cost will appear larger
than the returns justify. One of the
practical results Of scientific agricul-
tural research that will appeal to the
layman was recently given out by Pro
fessor c. T. Curtiss, director Of the
Iowa agricultural station, who points
out that the addition of a single ker-
mel to the ear of corn and to the head
of smaller grain would make an in
crease to the nations yield Of 5,000,-
900 bushels of corn, 100000 bushels
of wheat and 100000 bushels Of
oats. These are figures sufficiently
significant Of the results to be
wrought by government experiments
to emphasize the practical value of
the work that is going on among these
observation-disclosures City Journal.

Etiquette for Monarchs.

At a recent state banquet in Naples
the king of Italy, in toasting the
kaiser spoke in Italian, while the en-
peror replied in German. There is an
etiquette in the use of language on
such occasions which Bismarck may
be said to have introduced after the
French war-an etiquette which al
ways guides the foreign Office at Ber-
lin in it's correspondence with mem
beps of diplomatic corps. Had the
king used French, neutral tongue,
the kaiser would also have responded
in the same language, but as the king
spoke in his native speech the emper-
or had to stand upon his dignity and
do the same.
