TOIStOy and DreyfuS.

Il find it easier 20 believe Drey-
fus guilty than 10 accept the pre-
posterous hypothesis that the whole
general staff of the French army
could have conspired against him."
This historic and characteristic
pronouncement by Count Tolstoy
recalls itself in the retrospect
aroused by a Saturdays extraor-
binary spectacle at the military
school OF Paris. In the very spot
where twelve years before he had
been stripped of every badge of
trust and seen his sword broken
before his face Alfred Dreyfus stood
in all the dignity of his high rank
as a major and received the cross
Of a chevalier Of the Legion of
Honor. 1t had taken half a genera
tion 10 prove Tolstoy wrong-but it
had been done.
The moralist viii find many texts
in the strange story of this man
Dreyfus-his suffering as a jew, his
courage, the faithfulness of his
brave wife, the stanch loyalty Of
friends he had never even seen. But
il is much to be doubted if he ever
finds anything more remarkable
than this: That the wilful blind
ness (or worse) of those in au-
thority over a great nation, the mis-
carriage of justice through three
trials. the unreosoning antipathy of
a great people, as well as the moral
obhquity on the part Of high officers
in the French army, at the thought
of which Tolstoy recoiled. not even
all these things were able to deny
Justice 10 a lone soldier, degraded,
condemned. ard banished.

more responsible than any other agency

TEACHER
Washington. July p. 1905.
Simply and solely for the reason
that The Times considers the selec-
tion of a superintendent of schools
none Of its business. The Board of
Education is charged with that duty.
1t has the means 10 Investigate the
qualifications and merits of men
who may be obtained, and it has the
intelligence TO decide who of them
is best equipped to be made the
professional and administrative
head of the Washington schools, to
be given the task of reconstructing

As the responsibility is the Board

MILK PAIL SAVES LIFE

A Good Business Policy.

The Union Pacific is to set the
pace for other railroads by con
structing greenhouses along its
route. The purpose is something
more than to provide flowers for
it's dining cars and restaurants and
to grow decorative plants for the
adornment Of the lawns about its
stations. It is to grow so many
that each passenger can have a bou-
quet for his own, and, according to
the announcement, feel that the
flowers are a part of the trip over
this road and not precious little
souvenirs"
The plan is welcome sign of a
growing disposition on the part of
transportation companies to inn
press the passenger by other means
than mirrors and glued carvings.
Coaches and sleepers have become
less and less forid during recent
years, and so have become also more
and more hyg:enic. The tardy es-
thetic sense which has wrought this
change has dotted the country along
certain lines with artistic, substan-
tial, attractive stations. Now il is
20 take the beauty Of the out-of-
doors-past which the traveller
whisks. too often blind to all it's
charm-into the car, and tempt him,
SO to speak, under his very nose.
More work in the same general
direction can be done by the rail-
roads 10 their own great advantage.
Their influence would almost Ger
tainly shorten the fight for the elm
ination of the wayside billboard,
which little groups of citizens are
now making against unnecessary
odds. The boards have doubtful
value as advertisements One class
of their readers are accumulatively
indignant at the sight Of them, the
other similarly Indifferent. They
have marred, sadly, places as beauti-
full as Harpers Ferry. They may
be expected TO do more of this harm
as long as they are not actively
opposed by the railroads-ande every
bit of such injury is an asset lost
20 the road.
Of course, if the owner of ground
near a railroad track chooses to sell
the right TO erect a billboard which
shall be visible from the trains,
neither the officers Of the company
nor any nature-lovers who ride N
its cars can prevent it. But often
times the owner of the ground as
sents indifferently, and a mere state
ment of the case against the board
would prevent him. Quite as often
his pride could bring him to see
that a coat Of paint for his barn
which advertises somebody's pink
pills is too much sugar for a cent.
And almost always means can be
found-effective, aggressive means
TO prevent such mutilation of the
landscape as that which has de-
stroyed the view north from Read
ing, Pa, and defled the cliff at the
confluence of the Potomac and the
Shenandoah

PHILADELPHIA, July 23--It being
commanded by Prophet William S.
Crowdy. in his province as captain Of
the Lords hosts. founder and dictator
OF the Church Of God and Saints in
Christ, and according 10 a vision which
came 10 him. that all the unmarried
women in his congregation shall take
unto themselves husbands within the
present week. there is great scurrying

Believes Women PuTsueTs.
Prophet Crowdy is as daring as he is
jealous. Believing the old ethical theory
that woman is the pursuing animal. he
puts the onus of being unmarried on
the sisters Of his congregation. They
must get husbands. If they do not. they
will be communicated from the
Church of God and Saints in Christ. and
once outside this feet-washing, faith
cure fold. there is the smell OF brim-
stone and the prick OF the devils trident.
The week IN which the prophet com
manded that all the daughters OF Zion
should wed ends tomorrow. but so great
was the vail from the unsuccessful,
that he may extend the time a few days.
1t was soon after the annual passover
Of the Church Of God pilgrims in Plain
field. n. J.. a month ago, that Prophet
Crowdy began 10 issue rules for regu-
lating the home life Of his people. Here
tofore the prophet has been thought to
countenance a sort Of free-love arrange
ment- He has had a good many wives
himself. most Of whom have obtained
divorces without much difficulty. One
of his former wives lives at Thirteenth
and Fftzwater streets.
