return from Australia, Miss Maclachlan

The Poker Question Again.

The Chicago Inter-O Ocean, with a
courage suggestive of the II will =
motto of that far-famed city of thug
gerry, has reopehed the question wheth-
er poker is gambling game. It was
supposed that this question had been
settled and settled right and therefore
not subject to appeal. Poker, has been
too often demonstrated to be a game Of
skill to require evidence on the sub
ject. Thousands of men will testify
that there is no chance in poker. Even
those who win admit that their success
was the result of deep meditation upon
the essential characteristics Of human
nature. They brooded and brooded
until they arrived by deduction as sure
as Lord Bacon's at sure knowledge
Of what certain men would do under
certain conditions. They used that
knowledge and made money by it and
people call it gambling. If they had
used the same or even less skill in pre-
dieting the actions Of an opposing gen
eral in war it would have been called
deathless fame. But because COM
paratively few people are killed in
poker games and many, are killed in
war as the result of miscalculation
people denounce poker as gambling,
while they uphold war as glorious. 1t
is a burning shame to discriminate
against poker in this way. ~.

ROBERT BARR,.S LATEST
STORY ONE OF HIS BEST
"When MarciNa Came Home Written for The Sunday
Journal 1T VIII Appear January FL

Robert Barr, who contributes "When
Marcilla Came Home,o the leading
short story for next Sundays Journal
magazine, never fails to interest his
readers. He is ingenious at forming
plots, and unravels them with skill, al
ways keeping the reader in suspense un-
til the climax. His style is lucid and
he has a quiet humor that keeps his
readers chuckling.
The story Mr.. Barr writes for The
Sunday Journal is that of Vermont
village girl who goes to Europe to COM
plete her education in music. She
comes back a great pianist, visits her
old home, and, to lift the mortgage on
the village church, gives concert. How
this almost ends in failure and how
it is saved from doing so is the pith
Of the story.
Mr.. Barr is thought Of usually as
an Englishman. He was born in Scot
land, however, and obtained his educa-
ton in Canada. He taught school in
Canada for a time, then joined the edi-
torial staff of the Detroit Free Press.
He went to England in 1881, and there,
with Jerome K. Jerome, founded the
Idler Magazine. He has written many
novels, including "The Victors, - "Tek-
Ia and "The Speculations Of John
Steele,'' the last named being his latest
book, a story full of adventure, mys-
terry and love.

TALKS OF FRANKLIN
M. II. BoUTELLE ADDRESSES THE
PRESS CLUB OF MINNEAPOLIS
ON ANNIVERSARY OF GREAT
MANS BIRTH.

The memory Of Benjamin Franklin,
the founder of the American press, was
honored last evening by newspaper men
OF Minneapolis and their friends. The
occasion, the two-hundredth anniversary
of Franklin s birth, was celebrated with
dinner at Barge's restaurant on First
avenue s. Following the dinner, Carl
l.. Wallace, president of the Press club,
as toastmaster, introduced M. H. Bou-
telle, who delivered the address of the
MIR. Boutelle's talk was a remarkably
clever and comprehensive sketch and
character delineation. The interesting
and striking events in the life Of
Franklin were strikingly pictured. AT
ter outlining the career of the man and
ing characteristics, Mr. fr Boutel ies asked a
his hearers what position a man Of
similar caliber would occupy today.
"Where would another Franklin,
equally fearless, independent, honest
and able, who would seek to find the
truth of all things and to tell Of what
he found, who would not be deceived;
who would stand on the side of right
the people, but would yet compel them
to think for themselves stand in the
busy life of today9 There is need Of
another. man of similar strength of
minds and character today. Who he
will be or from what walk Of life he
will come we cannot tell. The country
is covered with a cloud of falsehood
and misrepresentation that those who
ers, fear or refuse to lift or drive away.
The need today is no less than it was
in the stirring days of the forming of
the colonial confederation and those
preceding and following. The good he
will do his country and his fellow men
will be no less than was rendered in
his time by Franklin.

Today America Is as far removed
from sympathy with France in Mo-

when she sought to limit our fishing
rights off Newfoundland. America

best serve it. The ambition of France
is to make the Mediterranean sort

herself special rights and assume spe-

United States could not object to
France protecting her Algerian from

made a pretext to overrun and absorb

France and America.

When John Adams arrived in Paris
while peace negotiations were under
way between France, England, Amer
lea, Spain and Holland he was in
tensely suspicious of the attitude Of
the French court and insisted upon
negotiating separately with Great
Britain. This was contrary to the
spirit of the alliance with France
made by Franklin, which provided that
neither country would treat without
the knowledge and consent Of the
other. But Adams had his way and
preliminary articles were drawn with
representatives of Great Britain. When
Count de Vergennes, the French for
eign minister, was informed Of this he
wrote Franklin a scorching letter and
at the some time wrote the French min
lister in the United States, -"We shall,
I fear, get small return for our. sacri-
fees in behalf Of the Americans.
This has nearly always represented
the feeling Of France toward America.
France was always expecting Gus to
do something which would help her
In Europe and we were forever disap-
pointing those expectations. France is
today looking to America to help her
out in Morocco with the chances IA
voring another disappointment. Are
we less grateful than other nations or
is there another reason why we are
never heartily with France, our first
friend in Europes There seems plainly
to be enough difference between the
ideals of the two nations to account
cal times. The United States is Anglo
Saxon; France is Latin. We are a
trading nation devoted to peace and
amity; France is nation of fighters
and frisky statesmen. The two. can
never hook up together. While we
owed an immense debt Of gratitude to
France for her interference in our be-
half in the revolution it was plain that
France was getting her reward in the
humiliation and weakening Of Great
Britain. John Adams suspicion Of
France was based upon information
that France opposed our boundary be-
ing the Mississippi. De Vergennes
was for giving England the territory
west and north of the Ohio river.
Adams craftsmanship was farseeing
enough to note that this would be
fatal. It would mean another war in
side Of a generation. The natural
boundary of the new republic was the
river and he insisted upon it and won
his point thru separate negotiation.
There were other evidences that
France, having curbed Great Britain
by backing America, was prepared to
curb America by backing Great Brit
ain. French policy was totally differ.
ent from ours. It was the artificial
system Of the balance Of power il

SHE WAS SATISFIED

A story is told of the late DR.. Peddie,
a Scotch minister. to whom his congre-
cation had presented pulpit robe. He
had never worn a robe, and after ac-
knowledging the gift, he said he would
wait in the vestry five minutes after SER
vice to hear any directors to the tnnova-
ton. Nobody appeared but one old lady.
who, on being asked what her objections
were, answered that she had read the
epistles Of st. Paul and could not find any
reference to the apostle wearing gown.
What epistle did you read?" asked the
doctor. From Romans to Hebrews y
answered the old lady. ''Well JANET
said her minister, II have read from Ro-
mans to Hebrews also, and could never
find any reference to the apostles wear
ing the breeks. What would you think II
you saw me going into the pulpit without
breeks?" Needless to say, the old lady
departed satisfied with the explanation.
