To Be REALIZED.

One of the suburbs of Chicago is the
site of a well-known school of theol-
ogy, from which go out each weekend
many members Of the senior class to
try their voices as supplies"
A passenger on a Monday morning
train was surprised at the number Of
them who got off at the station.

here" he asked the brakeman.
"Them? asked the brakeman. "Oh.

In the library of the Navy Depart
ment is vast quantity Of valuable
documents waiting for the man who
shall write the history of the American
navy. Here are many unpublished let
ters Of officers and secretaries and all
manner of technical Information about
the growth Of the battleship and the
development Of naval ordnance. Cap
tain Mahan, the greatest authority In
the world on naval history, has said
that he is too old to begin the work.
Perhaps it will not be begun, perhaps
all that material will lie untouched,
until some one of our young readers
is grown up and competent to do jus
tice to the subject

to be entirely overlooked In present
day systemA

Tragically appropriate as the climax
to year Of appalling railroad mortal
ity was the catastrophe of Dec 30
1905, wherein more than fifty passen-
gers were killed. The explanation was
the usual one, with which the travelling
public Is expected to be meekly con-
tent The night was foggy and there
was a mistake In the signals. Hence
the collision. The much praised block
system lends itself too readily to mis-
taken signals, with their grim sequel
Of lives sacrificed. Safeguards that do
not safeguard are coming to be pref
ty costly and gruesome farce "Oper-
ating efficiency" Is a braggart word
with the American railroad magnate,
and 1t Is true that, as factories for con-
centrated profits, our railroad systems
have reached a wonderful perfection,
equalled only by their achievements
as a universal Juggernaut, says Ridg-
ways. With grain rotting on the
ground in the Northwest for lack Of
shipping facilities, with half a dozen
States freezing for coal while cars for
the carrying of that commodity are
tangled in extricable confusion, with
high railroad officials bawling out ex-
plantations that explain nothing, and
excuses that schoolboy could excel
for inventiveness, with the slaughter of
helpless passengers going on day after
day, the present methods of operation
as devised and controlled by the mas
ter minds" of railroading are matter,
not for glOrifcation, but for mourning
and repentance.

Veterans of industry" A pretty
phrase and prettily employed. 1t is
what the Danes call the old people Of
good record who are forced to apply to
the authorities for help. No shame at
taches to such application; no ignoble
dependence, corrosive of self-respect,
attends the life which follows Such
a person enters the home as a sort Of
government pensioner.

Dreadful stories are told about the
Gar Nicholas suffering nervous pros
tration, but there is not a syllable of
well-authenticated evidence that the
numerous assassinations of the Russian
terrorists have ameliorated in any way
the condition Of the Russian people.
The only effect seems to be the adop-
tion Of sterner and still sterner re-
presslve measures. Assassination is
something that people seem to get hab-
ituated to so that they do not mind it.

Midnight Lawn Party.

Wednesday night the police were
notified a couple of hours after mid
night that apparently a lawn party
was the vogue in q certain neighbor-
hood noted for its quiet and sedate
people: An officer made his way %
the place indicated, but the picnickers
saw him coming and being more fleet
of foot than the minion Of the law,
took fight and soon disapp eared n
the darkness. BY this token II would
appear that II would be to the interest
of parents to Investigate why their
daughters and sons are out until the
small hours Of the morning, as it IS
apparent that the peace and dignity
Of the city is being disturbed BY these
.lnse asonable gatherings Of twos and

BEGGED OFF
YOUNG COUPLE PATCHED uF
MATTERS WITH POLICEMAN
AND WERE LET GO.

The police received a call at an
early hour yesterday morning from a
residence on Ninth street. The phone
message stated young couple just
outside the residence were using the
lawn as a Garden of Eden The call.
came from woman who was at home
alone-and the antics Of the young
couple were annoying.
A policeman put in his appearance
and the young people were caught
red-handed in the game. The officer
was, at first, determined to exercise
his authority In such cases, but after
listening to a long drawn out tale Of
fearful pleading he allowed them to so
hence.
It is said the officer concluded not
to make an arrest from the fact that
both parties hold prominent positions
in the city.

POLICE CALLS
SINCE THE ELECTRIC LIGHT

IT'S HARD TO REACH
OFFICERS.
SOME ARRANGEMENT SHOULD BE.
EFFECTED WHEREBY THE
PEACE GUARDIANS CAN BE
5sss SPEEDILY REACHED.

The police complain that owing
to there now being no whistle to
notify them when needed in the
residence part of the city that de-
lays are often caused as late at
night few teleph are available in
the down town district Since the
difference which has arisen be-
tween the electric light plant people
and the city council over the matter
OF whistle that the latter refused
to pay for, the Hughes plant no
longer blows police calls as they used
to and telephones have to be de-
pended upon when the police are
wanted, which Is poor arrange.
sment as above stated
While at first blush it woul APP
pear improper for the city to buy
q SIS whistle for a private concern
and also that in consideration
of the franchise and other
things the electric light
company has received from the
city free Of cost, It ought to be glad
to sound the desired calls for moth
