If, as the clergymen claim, there are
saloon keepers who are certainly yiolat-
ing the law and whose places are dis
grace to the city, the Excise Board is
to blame. 1t is the duty of this Board
to find out whether or not the saloons
are properly conducted. That is what
the Excise Inspectors are paid for. The
fact of the matter is. that the Excise
Board is playing politics the same as
every other branch of the municipal gov
ernment which owes its existence to the
present administration.

THE LENGTHENING JAPANESE

Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature?' was a
 question asked long ago, and nobody
 has yet risen to show how it can be done. AS cubit is about eighteen inches perhaps the question will always remain question, but it appears that the wonderful little Japanese are doing something in the way of lengthening themselves. The proofs that the Jap anese are growing taller are ample, as shown by the reports of the army sur geons, who in 1892 examined S4S, ,337 men applying for enlistment, and in 1902 4S1, ,O9S men. At the former date the number in stature below five feet was 2017 per cent; in 1902 the percentage had fallen to 1920; and that of men be- low 5.2 feet from 37.93 to S6O7. Between the same dates the percentages were: Of men 5.4 feet and over, 1006 and 12.67; and of men between 5.2 and 5.4 feet, re- spectively, 31S4 and 35O6. The change of the national fashion from sitting, often for many hours, on hams and heels to chairs, and the introduction of habits of physical exercise for all class es during the growing period, dates from 1870, when the first of the twelve hundred or more American and other foreign teachers began the modern sys- tenn of education in Japan
 It isn't likely that the Japanese will ever be a cubit longer than they have been, but perhaps they can stretch out some more They can if anybody can.

fe don't want to add to the preva- lent desire to get rich, or to the preva- lent belief that it is easy to get rich, but perhaps it isn't wicked to point out that little money properly invested" ten years ago would have been much now. For instance, in 1895 Northern Pacific could have been purchased for a quarter of one per cent, and last year it sold for 21615. And when it was cor nered it sold for 1000. In 1896 Union Pacific was offered at 31a, and it sold in 1905 for 1883, Atchison brought SA in 1897, and in 1905 rose to 9S3s. And in the dark days of '95 Reading common at 49s was not an attractive investment, yet it reached last year 143%. Erie in the same period rose from 10 to 52a4, Southern Pacific from 12 to 728s Balti- more and Ohio from g to 117, and Nor- folk and Western from one-eighth to SS1a.
 Foil on, brothers and sisters who didn't buy stocks at their lowest in 1895 and sell at their highest in 1905. They may be cheap again, and then you can do what you didn't do ten years ago.

THE REAL NEW ENGLAND.

AS New England Is secure in her proud preeminence, it will do no harm to call attention to some talk made by contributor to Outing. By rights, ac- cording to him, we should be doing business on the Pacific coast. It is de- clared that the accents of our mother tongue were heard on the beach not far from San Francisco forty-one years before English was spoken on Ply mouth Rock. And more amusing still, says the writer, is the fact that the or iginal New England was on the Pa cific coast. In support of this declara- tion it is pointed out that Sir Farncis Drake, after months stay at the oth- CT end of the Continent in 1579 took possession of the country for Queen Elizabeth, and named the acquisition New England, because he thought the white cliffs near what is now Point Reyes resembled the chalk cliffs near Dover.
 Interesting enough, but not impor- tant. The New England here had stay- ing quality, and here she is, willing to admit that the glorious climate of Cal ifornia has it's merits, but also fil7n in ,,
 the belief that there is nothing quite like the New England climate.

A CRISIS FOR THE KING.

At last on the afternoon of Sunday
 March 19, when one of the commanders
 of the troops, General Mollendorf, had been captured by the citizens, the with drawal of the soldiery was resolved upon. Peace was concluded on the understanding that the army should leave Berlin, that there should be freedom of the press, and that Prussia should have a constitution on a broad democratic basis. When the soldiers had marched off something happened that in dramatic forces and signifi- canoe has never been surpassed In his- tory of revolutions. From all parts of the city solemn and silent processions moved toward the royal place. They escorted the bodies of those of the peo- pie who had been killed in the battle. The corpses of the slain were carried aloft on filters, their gaping wounds uncovered their heads wreathed with luarle branches and immortelles. So the procession marched into the inner palace court, where the filters were placed in rows in ghastly parade. Around them stood the multitude of men with pallid faces, bebrimed with blood and powder smoke, many of them still carrying the weapons with which they had fought during the night and between them women and children beWailing their dead. Then the King was loudly called for. He appeared in an open gallery, pale and dejected by his side the weeping Queen, Hat off" the multitude shoutede and the King took his off his hat to the dead. Then a deep voice among the crowd in- toned the old hymn, Jesus incline zuverslct" Jesus My Refuge"-in which all present joined. The chorus finished, the King silently withdrew, the corpses were lifted up again, and the procession moved away in grim sole mulity-Carl Schurz, in McClure's Ma gazine.

KATHERINE CRAPS ANrrc

Many high-placed people like noto- riety, and so it may not be surprising that once in while one of the low placed ones flares up in the same way human nature being human nature. That is an interesting story which comes from Pittsburg, where almost everybody is rich and lively. Rather inc Gray, who is not rich, felt moved to announce that she would be, as she was the missing daughter of a wealthy Nirginian and the heiress to an estate of half a million. In her confession to the authorities Sister Gray made this statement: q manufactured the entire story because was tired of the drudg- cry of being a servant girl, and longed to see my name in the newspapers. When l came to Pittsburg I told an- other servant girl that was an heir ess. l never knew the news could travel so fast" The claim of this ser want girl was quickly proved to be false. As soon as the reporters took up the case they found that the whole statement was a clever chain of false hoods. Another phase of the matter which shows how newspapers are read and how easily people may be hoaxed, is shown by the fact that in the case of this woman she received telegrams and letters in such large numbers that she did not know what disposition to make of them. Many of the persons who communicated with her offered her money to prosecute her claim, and she took money from one of these per- sons.
 We'll, Katherine has had her day, and we hope she enjoyed it. The pleas
