Daring of the Past,

The criminal; industry of holding up
and robbing railroad trains has Ian
guished Of late, but IAN instance is re-
ported from Gallup, N. NJ, where the
robbers secured several hundred dol
lars from passengers This is small
business compared with the daring
deeds Of the past, when the brigands
have often made off with the contents
of an express car, sometimes rum
ming up into the thousands of dollars.
But train-robbing has become peril
ous since the companies have taken
vigorous steps to prevent On some
lines there is "a well-organzed staff,
every person being a dead shot and
a skilled rough rider, kept ready to
start in instant pursuit of band of
robbers, and generally the miscreants
are caught. The practical certainty
OF adequate punishment robs the busi-
ness of its old-time charm and no.

It has been the aim of scientists for
years to find some liquid preparation
which would possess anodyne, astrin-

be of such consistency that it would

through the muscles and finally to the
very bones, exerting on it's way down,

Notwithstanding that the realistic

for the sake of the incident It is per-

American literary taste is sound But
the fact remains that the people at

sense that it is a faithful report of
the sadness of life or it's horrors.
Americans prefer to have their leisure
time filled with tales of romance and
adventure, stirring their blood to

fancy to broader range That is a
good sign, so far as their moral
nealth is concerned. When the realis-

expect to find that. great change has

ROOT MAY URGE cALvo DOCTRINE

That Secretary of State Root will perform
another great international mission, in represent
ing this government at The Hague Peace Con-
gress next spring, is expected by public who
know most about the motives back of his recent
tour of South America.
There is strong impression that, as head of
the United States delegation to The Hague Mr.
Root will present vigorously on behalf of the gov
ernments of all the Americas, the demand that
the Calvo doctrine be recommended for place in
accepted international law. This is the doctrine
to which the minor republics OF the Americas are
just now so devoted, that debts of a. government
or OF it's citizens, may not be collected by force
by another government.
Diplomatic authorities now recognize that
the United States must either espouse vigorously
and effectively the Calvo proposition, else have
the less powerful governments of the continent $

WASHINGTON.-HOwt to keep the young peo-
pie of America on the farm is a question to which
the department of agriculture is devotihg great
deal of attention and effort. Secretary Wilson
and his lieutenants believe the future welfare OF
the nation demands that the drift cityward be
checked and that what America needs mainly is
to become imbued with an appreciation and love
of country life
President Roosevelt himself entertalns views
on this subject that are we'll known and that dis

should be cultivated among the American people.
