ABOUT

The proposed amendment known as
the Long amendment and introduced
by the senator from Kansas, which
amendment it has been claimed was
agreed upon at the White House con.
ference, provided not only for appeal
after the commission had fixed the
rate, but explicitly conferred upon the
circuit court the authority to issue an
order suspending the rate, Several
senators who have been regarded as
eminent constitutional lawyers and
who have also been regarded as hostile
to rate legislation have insisted that
provisions such as is contained in the
Long amendment were necessary to the
life of the proposed measure. But
several weeks ago Senator Bailey ere.
ated quite a stir among these consti.
tutional lawyers. While admitting
that the railroad had the right to ap.

had power to deny to the inferior Unit.

morning he walked into the Office of

money on the portrait of such stupid

Maruki was making a fine harvest
from the picture and had no desire to
part with it. Your Excellency will
have to pay for the negative" he ex-
planned. Il know" the admiral re-
piled, sadly, what do you ask for it?"
Maruki considered moment and then
named what he thought would be a
prohibitive price-twenty yen $50.
Togo sighed. THAT is a great sum
for poor man like me to pay-but l |

DREAMS HIS
SUBJECT

At LINCOLN, NE6.
Replies to Republican Orators Who
Have Criticised Him, Comparing
Himself to jefferson.

LINCOLN, Neb.,. Nov. 4.-W. ]. Bry-
an spoke here last night on the sub
ject of Dreams" His address was an
answer to Republican orators who
have spoken in Nebraska this fall
criticising Mr.. Bryan, and more espec-
iaIly in reply to Senator Beveridge,
who said in Lincoln several weeks ago
that Mr.. Bryan was a splendid man,
but in politics an impracticable dream
er.
Mr.. Bryan said Jefferson had been
called a dreamer and in his day they
had a Beverage in the person of Alex
ander Hamilton, one of whose pet
ideas was that Presidents should be
elected for life.
Il do not like that plan," said Mr..
Bryan. Roosevelt is only a year and
a half older than and he is in perfect
health. What chance would a man
OF my age have to be President? II
such plan were in vogue you never
would have had Roosevelt. Grover
Cleveland still lives, my friends"
Some of the dreams of Democracy
were described by Mr.. Bryan as be-
ing the election of United States Sen
ators by direct vote, tariff reform, ar
bitration and trust regulation. These
were dreams, he declared, which would
in time come true.
Mr.. Bryan said, considering his en-
President Roosevelt had
done well, but that there had been
no part of his popularity that had not |
been derived from his advocacy OF
Democratic principles.

First Edition of cray. Elsoy.

Priced originally at IL cents, a mod
est pamphlet Of few leaves was sold
recently in London for the record
price Of $500 1t was copy of the
first edition of the "Elegy Written in
Country Churchyard."
Whether Byron, on that morning,
when he awoke and found himself
famous, was astonished is not on
record; but that Thomas Gray was ut
terly bewildered by the success which
attended the publication OF his "Eie-
gy" is as certainly true as that the
fact is generally forgotten. Published
in the shape Of slim pamphlet, it
ran through four editions in two
months; and six other editions speed
lily followed. Ere the poem was ten
years old it had been reprinted in sew
eral collections of verse, in numerous
magazines, and twice translated into
Latin. All this amazed the author be-
yond measure; and when the Scottish
poet Beattie sought his permission to
prepare an edition for the Northern
Kingdom, he, in giving his consent,
warned his admirer of the risk the
publisher would take, for a London
book seller had "glutted the town"
with two editions of fifteen hundred
and seven hundred and fifty copies.
Beattie and the Scottish publisher
went their way, however, and the edi-
ton sold so quickly that Gray was en-
barrassed by an offer of a present of
books in recompense for his consent. |
Il cannot figure myself" he wrote,
how 1t can be worth his while to Of |
Ter me such present" He never ac-
cepted any cash payment for his
poems. He held it was beneath his
lightly as a gentleman to arter his !,
writings for money; and, of course,
he publishers were glad to oblige him /
~ respecting such a convenient
'cruple. To one of those publishers.
)odsley' this meant a comfortable
oroft of $4,000 from the "Elegy"
lone.
Gray's modest opinion of the "Ele-
~" was not affectation; it was the
consistent result of his sensitive, re-
lusive nature. AS a matter of fact,
e was not even responsible for the
of the poem. Eight years
lapsed between its inception and its
and Yet even that protrac-
ed travail did not create a just con-
option of it's merits on the the auth
RS part.-The Bookman.

The New Dictator of China.

The most powerful individual in
China today is Yuan Shi Kai, the Vice
roy of Tiensin. He is virtually the die
tator of the Empire, having as his
ally the old Empress Dowager. No
decree is issued from Pekin without
his approval. He is credited with
having caused the Chinese Govern
ment to issue the recent antipoium de-
cree.
Yuan is a man of great force of
character and believer in progress.
He has taken many steps to modern
ize his country. Numerous attempts
have been made to assassinate him. 1t
is hoped that through his efforts China
will be transformed into a progressive

Results of Antartic Expedition.

HeSuILS OF AntdTLIC ENPeuItioH'
1t is as yet too early to attempt CIV
ing any account of the scientific re-
suits of the recent journeys to the
far-off southern seas, but it is clear
that they will prove to be of the great
est importance.
The South-Polar regions are no
longer in this respect at least, terra
incognita." That part of the interna-
tional programme which dealt with
the meteorological and magnetical in
vestigation, has been carried out
much more thoroughly than could ever
have been expected, to the benefit of
humanity and especially of all voy-
ayers in Southern waters.
We have learned to know a remark
able climate. and the peculiar aspects
of Nature which show us here far more
ice and snow than can be found in
North-POlar regions, show us rich
animal and plant world in the sea, and,
to some extent, on the land, too. And
what is of no less Importance, by
means of the fossil finds made by the
Swedish expeditions we are now able
to follow this new continent through
the stages of it's development during
geological epochs, down from the time
when warmth and verdure reigned in
the regions now lying beneath the
sway of perpetual ice.
For it is a new continent we have
there in the South. 1t had long been
suspected that such was the case, but
it is only now that, by means of these
latter-day exploring expeditions, we
have gained a firm basis for our as

,us mass of land.-Otto Nordenskijold

HOW TO HOUSE POULTRY.

If houses for poultry are to be built
attend to the matter at once, before
cold weather interferes with outside
work, writes Eben e. Rexford in the
Outing Magazine. Everything should
be in readiness for your flock by the
coming of cold weather. If you have
already, go over them and see that
they are in perfect repair.
In building, the first thing to do is
to select proper location. The ideal
one is the south slope of hill. The
next best one is a place protected
from cold winds by buildings on the
north and west. If no facilities for
shelter are at hand, the north wall
of the building must be made of extra
thickness. Evergreen trees make an
excellent wind-break, and would adj
wise planting them for future protec-
ton, no matter how thick you make
the walls of your house.
Be very sure that whatever location
you select has perfect drainage. This
is a matter of the largest Importance.
Leading poultrymen agree that more
sickness among fowls originates from
dampness than from all other causes.
More and more the opinion grows
among practical poultry growers that
the best house for fowls consists of a
closed room, in which they may roost,
lay and remain in cold weather If they
choose to do so, and shed opening
to the south, where they can scratch
and sun themselves to their liking.
There should be an opening between
this shed and the closed room through
which the fowls may have free egress
during the day, but which should be
closed at night in cold weather, and
for the protection of the hens from in
truders The shed floor should be COW
cred with chag, straw or leaves, to
the depths of five or six inches. If road
dust or sand is mixed with it, the bet
ter the fowls will be suited. If grain
is scattered over the litter, the fowls
will busy themselves scratching for
it, and this open air exercise will be
a strong factor in keeping the flock
healthy 1t will also result in larger
yield of eggs, If an reproducing diet
is given in connection with it.
