The court martial found Midship
man Meriwether not guilty of man
slaughter but guilty of conduct tc
the prejudice Of good order and mill
tary discipline" The penalty imposed
is public reprimand by the Secre-
tary Of the Navy and confinement to
the limits of the naval academy for a
year. The last penalty Will be modi-
| fed so that the midshipman will not
be debarred from participating in the
next annual practice cruise. This is
not harsh sentence for court mar
tiaI. The fight between Merlwether
and Branch was in plain violation of
rules it was their duty to obey. DISC
bedience Of that kind, when 1t has
serious consequences and becomes
public, must be punished. But harsh
er sentence than the one imposed-dis-
missal from the service, or suspension
| for would have been unjust.
Public opinion, to the extent that 1t
expressed the views of those familiar
with the facts in the case, would have
condemned It, Manifestly the charge
Of manslaughter could not be sustain
ed after the evidence was presented.
Meriwether was willing to end the
fight before Its fatal conclusion, and it
was Branch who insisted on going on
with it. The clot Of blood on the brain
which caused Brains death was not
cfn Nv Il
er's fist, but by Branch striking his
head on the floor. 1t is deplorable that
the fight had a fatal issue, but the is
sue was no more anticipated by any
Of those engaged in it than 1t would
have been if the participants had been
boys In a grammar school, who often
settle their difficulties with their fists
Branch challenged Meriwether to
fight. If he had refused to accept the
challenge he would have obeyed the
rules and have ruined his future. He
would have been sent to Coventry by
his classmates. If able to graduate
the name Of coward would have
clung to him and other officers would
not have associated with him. The
"code of honor which obtains at An
napolis and West Point is against reg
u!ations and is in defiance of the prin-
clples Of the peace society, but so long
as it exists the young men who go to
those schools will observe it. Few
men who understand what it means to
fly in the face of the code will blame
the midshipmen or cadets who settle
a controversy with their fists when po-
litely invited to do so.

Abold calculator long ago announced
tn st the average man speaks about
twelve thousand words in a day, and
his wife or Sister about eighteen thou
sand. BY what method Of observation
he arrived at the figures is still mys-
terry. Did he keep the sexes under
view as the biologist keeps his guinea
pigs or as Professor Atwater his vic
Tins? Or was his sum total based on
a stenographic report Of the conversa-
ton at a mans club on election night,
or at a woman's luncheon the day af-
ter fashionable wedding? If the es-
innate is correct, the man who lives
out his 10 years viii utter about three
hundred million words in his lifetime,
and the woman about four hundred
and fifty million. Imagination gasps
at the number Of repetitions Of favor
ite adjectives, like lovely or awful
or stunning" In so vast an outpour-
ing of words. Surely the reflection
vocabulary. But before we settle
down to acceptance Of this calculation,
it is necessary to take into considera-
ton the opinion of a clever English
woman, who has been recently writing
on the subject. She sets forth her con-
viction that the feminine sex Is un-
Justly called the talkative sex, and
that taking the year together, men
talk more than women. 1t is not i'm
possible that the woman's reputation
for talkativeness Is partly based on
her ability and inclination to make
much talk Of little stuff. Although the
man may speak more, he may seem to
talk less, since he has more of i'm
pOrtance to say. Still, ''small talk"
will continue to be useful domestic
asset. Silence Is by no means a sure
mark of wisdom. If there are those
who think too little and who talk too
much, there are quite as surely those
who neither think nor falkland dull
companions they are in this workaday
world

Colonel Robert G. Ingersoll once
called upon Bishop Phillips Brooks
and was told by the maid at the door
that the bishop was very much occu-
pied and wished to be denied to all
callers. Nevertheless Colonel Ingersoll
begged her to present his card, and
in a few moments Bishop Brooks made
his appearance, smilingly extending
his hand.
Before leaving, Colonel Ingersoll
asked the bishop how it happened that
he consented to see him, when refus-
ing to see others.
Bishop Brooks smiled and said:
"Well, you see, Colonel, l expect to
spend an eternity with all my other
friends"

The sons Of great men seem to be
handicapped or overshadOwed or
crushed by the greatness of their faith
ers There is apparently no account
ing for the fact. 1t exists and seem
ingly 1t is without reason. Perhaps,
however, if closer scrutiny is applied
in some cases 1t will be found that the
sons Of great fathers are not great
themselves because their fathers, great
in many things, are not great enough
to know how to raise children. In a
word, they spoil them. The very
things that made themselves great are
denied the children. A man who be-
gins in poverty and obscurity and
rises to heights of distinction, influ-
ence and wealth usually informs the
public or his friends that the things
be suffered In his youth will be spared
his son. So the youth grows up in
the lap Of luxury. He may have brains,
but they are not used-there is no ne
cessity for using or developing them.
The father does the sons thinking. He
plans for him; he supplies him with
money, with all the comforts concetv-
able and with all the luxuries imagin-
