WHY THE GRIND
 IS SELDOM POPULAR

forth as examples to boys in general For myself, I am in favor of we'll balanced account in every particular Of life 1 advise boys not to initiate the grind who pours over books from morning until night. prolongs study hours when he would better be out of doors in the air and sunshine, and loses the wholesome friction that comes from rubbing up against friends and neighbors. On the other hand. have little respect and little use for the oposite sehoolboy character, who scrapes through recitati0ns. makes a bluff at subject about which he has not a single bit of accurate informa- tion, answers questions at random and heediessly wastes time, money and op- portunity
 There is a safe middle ground be- tween the fellow whose life is all work and no play and the other whose life is all play and no work. Each of these Is making a mistake in training one set of faculties and stimulating one side of the mind, while neglecting other faculties and disdaining other mental equipment which would help iIa forming q rounded and satisfactory character.
 sstill. It is very unfair to condemn anyone because he Is saying, by his CONSCIENTIOUS pTactlc0 HnQ IlBlu Boki~ denial. this one thing I do" Most boys are ltght-hearted and joyous be- cause they have had little experience of the shadowy side of life. When, as 1t sometimes happens, the boy vefy early feels the pressure of the coming years and realizes that his father and mother are making a very great effort to secure for him a fine and broad edu- cation. he does not wish to lose sin gle hour He Is like runner reaching forward eagerly toward goal.
 A boy may be in love with learning, Hugh could not understand this, and perhaps you cannot, yet there are boys who 50 love books and study that they simply cannot spend their time in track athletics or games of any sort. They give a supreme devotion to science, language or art, and one day they may be rewarded. Possibly there is a zest in ambition and a solace in getting work we'll done that surpasses the pleasure derived from any other source.
 The term grind" has rAther con temptous sound. but the grind of to- day may be in the van tomorrow, for all that you or I can tell. We would better refrain from criticism and await the event.

tCopyright, 1908, by Joseph B. Bowles)
 The marriage of convenience so far as our country is concerned, is an ex- otic. Abroad, In those European coun- tries where parents arrange marriages for their children with financial con- alterations influencing the contract, such marriages are by no means un- common. In the old lands of the east ancient customs still prevail, and al- though oriental parents may not know the phrase. they have the thing itself English speaking people, as rue. care gfAat deal for sentiment. Those who have had opportunities flor ob- servation, insist that Englishmen are more romantic and make love with more passionate fervor than Ameri- cans, although there is greater pru- dence on the part of the English Tn arranging for the future in the matter of settlements than has ever been the fashion here.
 For example, an English mother takes for granted the fact that her yonng daughters will attract men who shall desire to marry them Witn wise tact she does what she can to bar the path of detrimentals and 10 insure her girls against falling in love with men who may not be able to sup port them in comfort, If, however, the love-makfng occurs in defiance or her precautions, she ia not averse 70 an engagement, with marriage some distance in the future.

PLAGUE OF LOCUSTs
Hungary's Recent Visitation Said to b
UNPRECEDENTED.
Special Cable to The Journal.

Special Cable to The Journal.
London, Aug. 11.-Scientists are now
very busy in Hungary attempting to
explain the reason for the unprece-
denied visitation Of an army Of locusts,
says the Budapest correspondent of the
Pail Mall Gazette. The damage done
by the locusts is at The moment i'm
possible to be gagged. No one unac-
guainted with the devastating posi-
bilities Of these winged pests would for
q moment imagine that they, and they
alone, were responsible for so much
wholesale destruction.
One could not believe ones own
eyes. Everything they swooped upon
persisted as at the hand of ruthless
Invading army. An eyewitness told
me Of darkened sky, as if the night
had suddenly enveloped them. The
lamity The Puszta, or great Hunga-
s. rian plain, and in particular Hortobagy,
near Debreczin, is now in state of cat
tie fodder famine.
Specialists suggest that the locusts
came from Morocco, but it is the huge
humber which has baffled their scien-
tifc skill, they are computed to be at
: thousands Of billions. Their task of
destroying $4,000 square kilometers of
highly productive land was most sue
cessfully accomplished. Barley, wheat,
rye, maize and also beetroot and tur.
nips, all come within their scheme of
destruction, and in some cases they ate
away even to the roots.
The damage, tho only dimly under.
stood at present, is considered to be
enormous.

300 ISLANDS FOR SALE:
PRIZES IN LOTTERY

Watertown, N. Y, Aug. 11.-Three
hundred islands in the ST. Lawrence
river, varying in size from about thir-
ty acres to small pieces Of land hardly
fifty feet long, were offered for sale
at auction here today. While they will
not be put on the block, they will be
knocked down to the highest bidder
after the style Of all auction sales. 1t
is expected about $4,000 will be real
lied from the sale.
The story Of the islands and their
ownership is an interesting one. They
were won by the late Henry Yates,
then Of Schenectady, N. Y, in lot.

the United States, which was managed
by DR.. Eliphalet Mott, the first presi-
dent Of Union college; Archibald Nc
was notable character in his day.
He became immensely rich as the re-
suit of the lottery. He lived in Sche-
nectady until about 1S47, when he
went to Albany, and lived there until
his death. He was a brother of Gov
ernor Yates and was at one time a
United States senator. The proceeds
from the sale of the islands will be
divided among the heirs to the Yates
estate. among whom is Bishop Satter-
lee Of Washington.

Special Correspondence of The Journal.
TDINBURGH, July %. - Henry
Phipps of Pittsburg, London and
Inverness hire, is a lucky man,
for in securing the lease of Glen
Quoich he has secured a veritable High
land palace and the best deer forest in
the British isles. Altho he is paying a
rental of $4,000 and his expenses for
annual upkeep of the estate will be
quite as much if not more, it must be
remembered that Lord Burton, the pre-
vious tenant, spent a million and a
half dollars on the place in the past
twenty years. Lord Burton's last
guest at Glen Quoich was King Ed
ward who shot deer there in the fall
Of last year. A special suite of apart
ments was arranged for the king on
mansion, and these were specially fur
nished, the color scheme and general
arrangements being of his maiesty's
own choosing These are the apart
ments which Mr.. Phipps is now occu-
pying as his own.
In securing the lease for a term of
years Mr.. Phipps has taken over from
Lord Burton all the furnishings and
fixtures. These cost a pretty penny,
but then Mr.. Phipps, like his partner,
Andrew Carnegie, a neighboring High
1and laird, can afford such things. Glen
Quoich is the property of Mrs. Ellice,
widow Of the late Edward Ellice, MP.

of Scotland and the widest. It has
nearly twice the acreage of any other
county, approaching, two and a half

with Holland as the first step in the

These efforts have not been discouraged
by numerous indications that the Dutch

MiiIion Dollar Bids for Gums.

Washington, Sept. 14.-One of the
largest contracts for naval ordnance
will be let in a few days. when the
bureau of ordnance will receive bids
for forging and for completed guns
amounting to more than $1,000,000.
1t is unusual for the war department
to invite bids for the finished can
non. but 1t is now desired to ascer-
tain what prices 1t would be obliged
to pay for naval guns OF the various
calibres from the 7-inch up to the
12-inch. 1t is possible the navy de-
partment will contract for the COM
plete guns, instead of for the forg-
ings of nickle steel. There has been
more or less talk concerning the
great cost of finishing guns at the
naval factory at Washington, and
perhaps the bids received will throw
some light on the matter.

PLAY
TONIGHT
The Danites,A Story of EARLY
California Mining Days

The Court of Monte Cristo drew
fair house last night, despite the
inclemency of the weather, and
the fact that nearly everybody had
been at the fair all day, with the
Portland crowd. Those present
were amply repaid for defying the
rain, for the play was worth the in
convenience of umbrellas, gum shoes
and all that.
Tonight "The Danites," a strong,
breezy, Western play, will be the at
traction. ''The Danites" had a re-
markable run in the East. and Is
considered the strongest of plays,
whose scenes are located In the Far
West. It. has the swing and snap
that characterized the life of the
hardy miners of California's earlier
days, and makes one almost feel
the prairie breezes and hear the wind
in the trees. the dashing waters In
the canyon. Through this warp Of
rugged and rough frontier life Is
woven a. woof of love; those delicate
golden threads that fasten the fabric
of life together, adding to its
strength and giving 1t it's beauty.
