In a breathless whisper he says it in a COM
msnd rather han an e~ntreaty. And slowly
the open, wavering lips turn to his and
she obeys him. Whereafter they returned
TO the room where the recumbent philoso-
pher smiled up at her from the sofa and
where Fife was playing the piano.
Here was a problem. The pair dealt
with it as in their natures they could. The
philosopher fell i'll. His trouble was null

likely to lessen the problem. But one
night he surprised the lovers-a dreadful

renamed, for the philosopher recovered
and went on writing books. He was still
writing them at the end Of the story. He
was SO. Sybil had been his wife for thirty
years and her age must a v been near SO.
An unusual book, at onc interesting and
disturbing. There a be little question
that it will fasoinate the reader.

enough place., and there he met Eva,
the girl for whom the story is named. Eva
translated is Pear Blossom, and doubtless
she was pleasant TO see. She and Sung-yo
went away together, and in time they were
married in the Christian manner. Alas!
it was the misfortune of Pear Blossom to
be a slave, and her master caught her and
beat her so that she died. Sung-yo and
his friend, the humorous Tong-siki, had
trying adventures, the result of putting
forth patriotic endeavors in Corea. But
there is to be a LEI state OF things there,
and, perhaps, as Tong-siki said at the last,
-Corea shall be free" Meantime, in the
story, there is merriment to tighten the
dark places of the still existing situation
and condition. At page s24 there is an
account Of the experiences OF a fat Oriental
Of gravity and distinction who sought
TO eat a dinner OF soup and rice on a steam
ship at sea. These experiences had nothing
particularly to do with the purposes OF the
story, as same are stated in the preface,
but they were amusing, and We should
gladly rehearse them if the necessary time
and space were ours.

A Corcan Tale OF Purpose.

Mr.. W. Arthur Noble says In a preface 10
his story OF EVA; a Tale Of Korea eaton
a Mains) that the work wa undertaken In
response 10 a number Of ambitions. He
wished and underworld In his story to re-
gard with Corean eyes the acts Of foreigners
In Corea, and TO interpret these acts with
Corean understanding. Il was his aim,
further and generally, TO Illustrate the
customs Of the people and their habits OF
thought; 10 show that the Asiatio loves,
hates, fears, hopes and sacrifices for his
ideals, the same as does his Western brother;
20 show the great struggle Of new Corea for
q better life; to Illustrate the type Of wan-
1000 that is leading the people toward re-
form; TO awaken sympathy for a people who
have become the victims OF an unjust ex-
ploitation by a foreign power" Such de-
sires and purposes on the part OF a story
teller are OF course worthy, and there must
always be sympathy for them. How often
are stories written with a merely selfish pur-
pose-to be interesting and 10 sell!
Sung-yo, a young Corean, purports TO
write this tale. Some understanding Of
him may be gathered from a piece OF in
genuouI personal description sGt down at
page 10. Being a youngest son he was,
he declares, permitted and even constrained

sons OF the rich. Idleness and i~ncapacity.

encouraged in him. On the other hand,
he was powerfully discouraged from engag-

developed accordingly that physical efemi-
macy which is understood in Corea to b
the mark Of a gentleman. His chief con

AZ n Developer OF Character.

The old triangle Of the woman welded to
one man and in owe with another furnishes
the problem Of f. F. Benson's story OF
Paul" and it is worked out in the usual
manner by the somewhat violent elimina-
ton of the husband. He was a puny
crippled little vampire, with a fancy for
embroidery, a remarkable skill in shooting
and a fiendish cruelty which prompted him
TO hire his wife's lover as his secretary hat
he might look on and enjoy their misery
He needed killing as much as a poisonous
spider or a dangerous serpent, but 1t Is
rather unpleasant TO squash the one or stone
the other. How a lover can murder a man
with his own motor and after a few months
drunken remorse and a hysterical conversion
at the communion service marry the widow
and live forever happy on the dead mans
beuuest Is difficult for rational people to
imagine.
It must be admitted to the lovers credit
that the murder was q crime OF intention
only, for Mt the actual moment when the
motor crushed the life out OF its owner
Paul had changed his mind, and at grave
risk to his own life was driving straight at
the cliff TO ave the victim whom an instant
before he longed TO destroy-all Of which
renders the maudlin penitence and drink
deadened despair which follow both undig-
niied and unwarrantable. The second
wedding is somewhat delayed by the waiting
for the birth OF the dead mans child, or Paul
would no doubt have wasted less good
whiskey in drowning his SORROWS and the
reader would rave been spared many un-
pleasant pages.
The scene Of the story is laid partly in
Italy and partly in England. Its theme
Is the development Of character under
the torture of remorse to a final and ap-
parently satisfactory vicarious atonement
in the rescue Of the dead mans child. There
is som clever characte rization. and the
construction is careful and elaborate, but
the story is as unpleasant as It is unprofit-
able. In color it is purple splotched with

new PRIMARY BILL
PASSES COMMITTEE

Des Moines, March 1.-THE house
committee on elections reported to
the house with recommendation of
passage substitute for the Flenni-
ken primary election bill, which sub
stitute is almost identical with the
new measure introduced early this
week. A number of changes were
made in the bill in the direction of
perfecting it and in this form it will
go to the house with a favorable rec
concentration as a substitute. 1t will
go on the calendar and may be reach
ed early the coming week. Members
found that there has been some mis-
understanding or misrepresentation
OF the bill and it's provisions are not
as well understood as were those of
the Crossley bill, concerning which
there had been much comment.
The house committee also acted ia
vorably on the English bill making
some additions to the Polk county
primary law loo. ing to perfecting the
same.

WILL NOT DECIDE
The JUDGESHIP NOW

Washington, March 17.-Secretary
Taft was in consultation with Presi
dent Roosevelt for some time yester.
day. President Roosevelt later author
lied the issuance of the following
statement regarding the successor of
Justice Brown in the supreme court
of the United States:
CAS- Justice Brown will not retire
until June, when the supreme court
will take a vacation until the second
Monday in October, and no public in
convenience can arise from a va.
cancy continuing through the vaca.
ton, the president will take furthel
time to decide on the question of Mr.
Browns successor. Several names
including that of Secretary Taft, have
been under consideration, but no de-.
cision has been reached, or is likely
to be reached or announced in the
near future"
Secretary Taft went to the war de.
rartment for a few moments before
the meeting of the cabinet. When
asked his intentions he directed his
inuuirers to the statement issued
from the White house, saying that
that was the expression of the presi
dents views and that his (Taft's)
lips were sealed; all that he could
say was that the matter was indetin.

LEWIS RESOLUTION
PASSES THE HOUSE

Des Moines, March 13.-Without
argument or a discussion of any kind
the house of representatives yester-
day afternoon took up the Lewis joint
resolution calling for convention of
representatives from the various
states TO suggest an amendment to
the United States constitution for
election of United States senators by
the people and adopted it. The vote
was 81 to %, 81 being absent or not
voting.
The rules provide that joint reso-
luton shall be treated In every way
as bill This will necessitate the
governors signing it before it be-
comes effective. There is no doubt
but that Governor Cummins will place
his signature upon the document i'm
mediately and will at once enter in
to correspondence with the COVER
nors of other states of the union with
4 view of arranging the details of the
convention that will doubtless re-
spond to Iowa's invitation to assem-
ole here and discuss popular election
Of United States senator's
The introduction of a bill inviting
the convention to use the house and
senate chambers and placing these
chambers and the committee rooms
Mt the disposal Of the convention, is
being considered. This is necessary
as statute provides that the legisla-
tive chambers shall be used for legis-
lative and no other purposes.
According to the terms of the reso-
luton, the governor of each state
will be invited to send five delegates
to the convention. Should all the
states respond to the call of Iowa,
this will make total of 225 delegates
and there can be no doubt that the
great majority of the state of the
union will take this opportunity to
express their sentiments in regard to
popular election of United States
senators. Already twenty-three
states have taken action similar to
that of Iowa in 1904 indorsing the
idea OF electing senators by direct
vote.
The convention will not be official
In that its action will submit the pro-
posed amendment to the United
States constitution to the electors.
All this convention can do is to give
impetus to the movement. 1t is the
first step toward making the most
radical change yet suggested in the
federal constitution.

DES MOINES' CLAY
WILL MAKE CEMENT

Des Moines, March 16.-Mr. A. H.
Savage, assistant state geologist, has
given out the statement that the lime
stone found on land in the vicinity of
Des Moines contains the proper ma
terial for making Portland cement.
Mr.. Savage's investigations have been
pursued in compliance with the re-
quest of two cement mill promoters
and his report to them is favorable.
Milo Ward, secretary of the Des
Moines Commercial Club, has ex.
pressed himself many times regard
ing the desirability of the location of
such an industry here The fact that
the construction of a plant at Mason
City to cost million and half dol
lars is contemplated bears out
Mr.. Wards statement.
Mr.. Savage said, concerning the
matter: There have been two par
ties here lately considering the ad-
vantages of Des Moines. I do not
know that any definite scheme has
been launched, but the investigation
has been carried on seriously and I
have put myself at their service. Des
Moines may get big plant here. 1t
is certain that everything seems ia
vorable.
"The brick plants here have clay
pits that could supply the carbo,
niferous shale necessary to the manu-
facture of cement. All along the
river there are auteroppings of
shale rich in silica and alumina.
For cement shale must not carry
much magnesium carbonate, say three
or four per cent. More would render
it less fit for cement. The limestone
quarries at Earlham are the nearest.
Des Moines has comparatively little
limestone, but it is seldom that both
the proper sbale and good limestone
are found in the same place."
