chiefly for sitting or loahng, the sleeping
places being on the roof. Except when the
weather is bad all Figuig sleep with only

Crossing the yard, we were taken up to
the second floor into what 1 suppose was
the best room OF the house. II was about
twenty feet square, with a ceiling at least
twenty-five feet in height. The walls were
whitewashed and the ceiling was decorated
with palm leaves dyed red and gree0. The
room seemed well lighted, although II had
only one little window high up in the
wall. This had no glass and It was barred
with iron. With the single exception OF a
rug about as big as bed quilt there was
no furniture. There was not even a dlvan
built out from the wall as in some Moorish
houses. The room was perfectly bare.

the Hotel Belmont. He is far removed in

WHAT A MAN HE IS!

When one stops to think of u e extraordinary versatility of the man Roosevelt, one can not escape the amazing conclusion that he is adaptable to any conceivable situa- ton that may confront him, and what is more, dispose of it within the very letter of it's peculiar ex- actions.
 For more than week he travers- cd the greatest waterway of the continent, visiting the cities and talking to hundreds of thousands of profoundly interested citizens upon the gravest concerns of the nation, telling them, as their chief citizen should, the real, the wise, the safe things to do; defining na- tional policies in simple, straight forward terms, and otherwise put ting himself in intimate, friendly touch with the millions who have learned to respect him and rely upon him, irrespective of politics and locale he has been the central figure of a great group of men, of governors, senators, congressman and other notables, hourly in the limelight momentarily under the strain of lofty duty most admira- ply discharged throughout. At a moments notice he turns from it all, with all the avidity of a keen hunter, and plunges into the im- penetrable swamps of Louisiana to hunt bears. He'll hunt them to their last lairs, and he'll get them, too and there won't be any fuss about it, either ; that's his way :; he is thorough in everything and masterful always. No wonder the marveling and appreciative South erners lined a thousand miles of Mississippi waterfront halfmile deep to greet this capable, demo- cratic, conscientious president, who does everything and does it we'll.
 What a task ahead for his suc- eessor in the filling of place so amplified by his occupancy. There are few men in America who can meet the measure.

WHAT TIME IS PROVING

The despised code of the socialist, like the "stone that was cast out by she builders", is becoming a cor nerstone in the fabric of human action, by slow, yet sure, degrees. Time, the solvent of all crucial problems, is compelling the certain, though grudging adoption of one socialistic eXpedient after another, and the use of one simplifies the duplication of another. Just where the program will lead to, or end, is problematical. But there is com fort in the popular conclusions so far reached by their use, and it may be the whole doctrine will be required to satisfy the exaotions oi a people too long subjected to the grosser and more selfish principles of the individualistic, corporate and partisan programs, so long in force. The Australian ballot, the initia-
 tive and referendum, the declara- ton of popular choice fol U. s.
 Senator, Statement No. 1, are among the elements that distin- guish the Marxian theory of human government, and there are other Evidences of the encroachment of

The Douglas Island News said last week: "Rumor has it that the next grand jury at Juneau will be called upon to purge this section of a species of law breaking that has long been c stench in the nostrils of decent people. We refer to the unmarried couples who live in open defiance of law and the usages of organized society Every good cit izen, and especially every father, who is in possession of facts, has a duty to perform in this matter which he should not evade."

IMAM AND HIS MASTER

In the course of his Keokuk speech the other day, President Roosevelt gave voice to a sentiment that should sink into every young soul in the land. Said he: "A man must be master of himself, or some one else will be his mas ter" There is a world of sound sense in such doctrine and a lesson for infinite value in it to every youngster on life's threshold. To attain to the crux of such a posi- ton requires not only caution and courage, but downright honesty of purpose, as basic principles upon which to build that self-mastery that shall forever and always pre- clude the dominance of the other man.
 Most young men just starting out in life, possess these attributes in large measure; they are the qualities that belong, inherently, to the young unspoiled by contact with the wide and rough world |; and self-analysis will soon tell him whether he has them. Once assur- ed of his predicate, it becomes the duty of him who thus knows him. self, to cherish these fundaments and engraft them on every act and thought and relation of life. To
 be careful, cautious, conservative; to be courageous, morally, physi- cally and mentally; to be simply,
 yet wisely, honest, are not peculi- arily hard virtues to come by if one really wants to make them of use; they must be in, and with, a man, instinctively, of course; only to the young they are not realiza-
 ble, nor admissible He believes, modestly, he has them all and hopes it from the bottom of bis heart; but this won't do the trick ; he must know they are his elemen- tai characteristics, claim them and swear by them and live up to them and thus they will invest him with their own vital strength until he no longer doubts his possession, and glories in the conviction. There never was an era in American life when they were so marvelously es- sential best hope and ideal

LICK AND WILMERDING
Cross BATS ON FRIDAY

Lick and Wilmerding will start the
ball rolling next Friday afternoon in
the opening game of the subleague
baseball schedule.
The teams that have entered the local
tournament are Lick. Sacred Heart.
wilmerding, Cogswell and Lowell. The
skill Of the first four is known. while
the team the Lowell boys intend to
enter is a subject of speculation. While
four teams Will have fighting chances
IL is known that the closest contest
will be between Lick and Sacred Heart.
The boys from the Potrero institution
have won the subleague championship
for the past five years, and they also
won the Academic Athletic League
championship Of 19e5-certainly a rec
ord TO be proud Of Lick still has the
services of Charles Bell TO depend upon.
and II the championship be won by this
school il viii have been due principally
to Bells efforts. Graf, from Santa
Rosa, is another acquisition of the Lick
team. Any time that Bell should feel
the need Of help. Graf will be ready
to step in and twirl for the team.
When not on the slab Graff will be
seen on the receiving end of the bat
terry.
Lick has not the "slugging" team
thaL il had last year. Men like Sarah"
Hail. Jerome Barieau. F. Maillot and
George Griffith will be missed this sea-
son. but the LICH boys have the hard
work" habit and feel confident that
their training will not go for naught
If any school has a chance TO wrest
the championship from Lick il is
Sacred Heart College. The boys from
this institution have always turned out
strong teams, but, strange to say. this
is the first season Ihey have entered
the league. April 20 is the date set
for these teams 10 meet in what virtu-
ally means the struggle for the cham
pionship of the subleague.
The lineup for the Lick Wilmerding
game will be as follows:
