records. They are Attorney General
Moody and Secretary or Commerce and
Labor Metcalf. Moody is one of the
most enthusiastic baseball cranks in
the country. When he was at college
he was a crack player himself. He
was captain of the Andover baseball
team in 1872, and played with the
Varsity nine at Harvard for four
years. II he gets the opportunity he
still likes to play the game, but just
now he takes most of his exercise in
horseback riding.
Secretary Metcalf made quite a rec
ord as an taTsman on the Yale crew
away back in 1856. When he went
to California in 1880 he became a
member OF the Olympic club, of San
Francisco. He was one OF the crack
boxers of the club, and at one time
held the m~'ddleweight amateur cham
pionship If San Francisco for wrest-
ling. He does not indulge in any OF
this violent exercise now, as he has
not been in good health for some time,
and he, like Moody, confines himself
to riding and walking. First Assist
ant Postmaster General Hitchcock is
one of the greatest athletes in public
life. He has a fine record as a base
ball player, but his speciality is box
ing. He is more than six feet tall,
very quick, and has an unusually long
reach.

families have just been evicted in
obedience, it is said, to an edict of
the tenement house commission.
Sanitary improvements are to be
made, and they need to be made. but
the 800 are in deep grief. The scenes
in the regions covered by the courts
action have been pitiful. In many
cases the courts themselves interfered
to give an extension of time in cases
where immediate eviction would be
disastrous.
1t is the mark of progress over
again.
Meanwhile little is being done to
solve in a satisfactory way the old
tenement problem. New-fangled ten
ements have been built, but there are
few of them, and the tide of new New
Workers pour in by every ship.
where to nve? THAT Is the
problem. 1t Is prophesied that in so
years only the very rich and the very
poor will live on Manhattan Island.
The time between is to see many
repetitions of the sad scenes of this
week.

Taft is opposed to the policy of retain
ing any number of troops in San Fran
cisco engaged in the work of relief and
restoration. He believes that these
duties should be taken up by the citi-
zens of San Francisco themselves. The
longer the amy stays there the more
danger there is of conflict of author
ity between the municipal officials and
the officers of the army. 1t is also
felt that the people OF San Francisco
would be much more self-respeeting II
they are shculdered with the respon-
sibility of maintaining order and re-
lieving the suffering.
The conduct of the army officers aud
men in the great disaster in San
Francisco las done much to restore to
the army the confidence and respect OF
the people. and particularly of mem
bers of congress. 1t had become the
habit of sorDe congressman n sena-
tors on all occasions to decry the
American soldier. When the news came
of the wiping out of the Moros at
Mount Dajo in the PHI. ,psnes there
was a renewal of the criticism of the
army and In cutlery against the bru-
tally and cruelty of the soldiers. This
has all been hushed. When the same
soldier, because those stationed on
the Pacific coast are of the same army
that has occupied the Philippines,
went into the burning city, rescued
men, women and children, went hun
cry that others might eat, and neith-
er slept o rested night nor Day
there was nothing heard about the
brutal soldiers.
The employment of the army in this
work was without warrant of law, but
no violation of red tapeism ever met
with so hearty approval or commanded
so much respect in congressional and
administration circles where the well
fare of the soldier is supposed to be
In charge. y

The actors heirs are well pleased.
They should be. Joe Jefferson was
not merely a shrewd buyer-though
luck rather than shrewdness made
this magnificent rise-but he was a
good painter himself. as everybody
knows. He was o. SO good at a
painting as he was at acting, but he
was a wonderfully versatile genius.
This is more apparent now with a lit
tie perspective on his life and work
than 1t could have been in his life
time, even to those who had the hap.
Ply privilege of standing close to him.
His style was not especially ingenious,
but 1t was efficient. 1t may not be
fanciful to believe that it had the
characteristics of the mans acting
and his living. 1t had pleasant quail
ties. 1t was genial painting, | think
! may say, and there is no doubt that
Joe Jefferson's brush work will steadi-
ly rise in value, in the end far beyond
any value 1t can have as work of art.

raking the Glider out Of WAR.

War is fast losing Its glitter.
Khaki places blue and scarlet. Flags
are unknown in battle. The French
army has just banished the drum and
now there is talk of abolishing the
saber. Meanwhile, war songs grow
rarer and rarer. Most modern wars
are too short to generate songs. All
this grieves and ~scandalizes the paint
ers, the poets and the playwrights, but
causes the peace people to rejoice with
huge joy. Charming, were he still alive,
would share their Civilizations, for he
used to declare that the love of war.

the impression made upon small boys
