yet no religious or Sectarian ideas have brought them together. They are de- voices of hygiene; they refuse to re- gard themselves as philosophers. How ever, they are more than materialists. They cultivate the arts. There is a picture show in the central pavilion. Tn the evening the latest musical scores brought along by the courier upon his donkey are interpreted in the music room.
 As was bidding Oedenkove farewell and preparing to plunge again into darkest civilization, he showed me a baby, five or six months old that had been joyously tumbled about quite naked upon the grass since morning. Look at him. said he. His mother left him in the shadow of that tulip tree, because by 1 o'clock the sun Is so hot, but the breeze came up from the lake and it greew cool, so the little fellow crawled out into the sunshine to get warm Nature is his constant guide!"
 Then I began my descent of the mountain. Looking back I saw 8 pie ture almost as if taken from the Bible The naturist was bending dreamily over the naked babe, who laughed and crowed in the unshine.-Translated from the Boston Transcript from LII lustration.

A FACT TO BE FACED.

President Hamilton of Tufts is not in the least an enemy of the higher edu- cation of women; indeed, he has no thought of having Tufts abandon their training in the liberal arts and profess sions. But he presents facts, in his an- nual report, which appear to prove that the policy of segrega tion must be adopted very soon If any young men whatever are to be attracted 10 the classical courses in the future. While the technical and engineering depart ment has greatly gained in men stud- ents In the past twenty years, the old academic department has come to be almost monopolized by women since CO., education was inaugurated fifteen years ago. There may be special rea- sons for this development, but Tufts faces a practical question of simple survival as a mans college, in the de- partment of liberal arts, and the an- swer courageously given by President Hamilton seems eminently sound. The young men and the young women must be separated. The tendency in this di- rection is marked in those New Eng land colleges that have tried co-educa- ton. The young men prefer mems col- leges, and educators who wish to stay in the business of training young men must face the fact.--Springfeld Repub- lican,

SUBMARINE MINE.

Among the many failures of The Hague conference, actual or prospec- tive, none Is more lamentable than what is now conceded to be it's failure to regulate tho use of submarine mines. The subject Is virtually new to inter national law. The submarine mine is a device never made any extensive or threatening use of until the war be- tween Russia and Japan. That war first revealed it's awful possibilities.
 It is not disputed that a belligerent has the right to defend his own har- bors by blaming the approaches to them with mines, ptovlded he gives due mo- tice to neutrals. That action is like that of man who protects his own premises with "mantraps and spring guns" and puts up sign to that ef- feet But 1t is now lawful for bel ligerent to SOW the territorial waters of his enemy with mines placed secretly. Not only the warships of the enemy us- ing their own waters are thus liable to sudden destruction. Neutral and peace full vessels are equally liable. It Is in the power of the weaker belligerent, If he has only naval force enough to plant his mines and get away unde- tected, to close the commerce of any hostile port. The recognized rule that a blockade is entitled to be respected on- ly when 1t is effective would be, entirely nulllfied by such permission. An ef- fective blockade means an effective force of wafships of the existence of which and of their purpose to interrupt access to the port due notice has been given to neutral shipping. But if in- visible mines can take the place of vis- ihle vessels, any port can be effectual- ly closed without any blockading force at all beyond the mine-laying vessel The risk in this case is not of capture and condemnation. It is of the total de- struction of the vessel undertaking to pass the invisible blockade, with all on board, wihout warning The vessel might be the Lusitania or the Deutsch- land
 This is really too rnonstrous. It is like legalizlng, by refusing to lllegalize, assassination, or the poisoning of wells or any other means of mere massacre of combatants and non-combatants i1l- discriminatory. As 1t is, the only re- striction that commended itself to the committee to which the subject was referred seems to have been the pro- viso that an anchored mine must be made harmless in case 1t goes adrift.- New York Times.

LIQUID SULPHUR.

Sicily, so long famous for its ex- portation of sulphur, has begun to suffer from the competitioh of the United States. In Sicily sulphur is mined in the solid form. At Lake Charles, near the Gulf of Mexico, 23O miles from New Orleans. sulphur is obtained from deep deposits in the form of liquid. Wells driven to a depth of so feet in search of petro- leum revealed instead rich deposit of sulphur. To obtain the mineral hollow tubes were driven into the earth, Each sulphur well consists of three tubes. one within another Through the outer tube hot water is forced down, and it issues through perforations near the bottom. Through the central tube hot air is driven little lower than the points where the hot water escapes. Through the third tube. inc1osed between the other two, the liquid sulphur, dis sovied by the water, rises to the sur face under the combined influence of the pressure of the column of water end the fnpulsion of the rising air. The liquid Sulphur Is led into wooden reservoirs, where 1t coois and hafd- ens,--Youth Companions

POWER eorNaTo WASTE

The newly created inland water ways commission is going to teach the people lot of things about the most valuable mineral in the world-a mineral of which, because it is plen- tiful we are more wasteful than of anything else, throwing it away wholesale, and exhibiting q stupid neglect of it's possibilities of useful ness. So writes Rene Bache in the Technical World Magazine for No- vember.
 The mineral in question is water. Everybody drinks it, and most folks use it for bathing. The latter em- ployment is considered by many nom essential, but as a beverage it is so far indispensable that, if wholly de- prived of 1t, all of mankind on the earth-not to mention the fowls of the air and beasts of the t1eld-would perish in about four days. The crops too, are made to grow by the, same beneflcent fluid, which, incidentally furnishes power on an enormous and steadily-increasing scale for rnanufac- turing purposes. To the harnessing of their rivers the Southern States mainly owe their recent industrial re- juvenation.
 This is the lead of a very interesting article entitled Sixty Millions Year Wasted; in which the author tells of the tremendous resources which are not yet utilized The article is hand somely illustrated with photographs.

ROME oUTCLAssED.

Some of those old Emperors who used to make Rome howl with glee over chariot races and gladiatorial duels thought their circuses were just about the quintessence of cussed- ness in the line of games and sports. But of course, poor benighted old Nero and Caligula lived too long be- fore the discovery of gasolene and non-skidding tires to appreciate the possibilities of the motor-charlot race Then, too, the populace to whom the potentates catered lacked the superb or refinement of the throng that sat on the bare boards in a raw, wet wind at the Morris Park race track Satur- day night watching the 24-hour auto mobile contest. The old Romans were crude folks, perfectly frank in their barbaric lust for witnessing bloodshed and tragedy. Whenever they felt in the mood to watch mur- der they simply clamored at the Emp eror's gate, and straightway warriors and wild beasts were ordered Into the sandy arena, there to do battle until the mob was satiated. But since the spread of culture and Humanitarian ism even the commonest people have learned to like murder only when smothered under a fine display of skill--and only in small quantities at that, for light eating is @ sign of re- finement, whether 1t be the stomach or the passions that are being fed.
 In another respect, too, we have advanced beyond the blunt brutality of tue red Colosseum; we have in- troduced the element of uncertainty and suspense, whose value in keying up interest has been repeatedly de- monstrated in literature and the drama The Romans went to the cir GUS knowing absolutely that they would see scores of lions, tigers, net throwers and wfestlers writhe in ghastly death bangs. But for the highly civilized mind such foreknowl- edge dulls the sensibilities just as get ting up @ menu spoils ones appetite somewhat for the meal, The people who sat shuddeMng over the mangled bodies of the insane racers at Morris Park Colosseum and, as the band played merrily on, kept asking one another whether anybody else would be killed to make their holiday would indignantly deny that they went to see murder done Of course they didn't; they went to see the rare sport of automobile racing and were simply resigned" to the possibility of serious accidents. Had they known that scores of persons were to be injured or killed they would never have en- tered the grounds.
 But how many spectators would have paid the admission fee If the race had been only for motor cars running automatically, without driv- CTS, and each on its own separate track? How many visitors would there have been had the competing cars been driven by chauffeurs seat ed in the grandstand and operating their machines by wireless ?--New York Tribune.

sELr.GovERNnrENr rAuGHr.

American citizens whose vision and sympathy are not bounded by the confines of their own small environ- nnerlt should take a lively interest in the opening of the Filipino Assembly at Manila under the direct auspices of the Secretary of War. The elections for the Assembly brought to the polls a disceuraging small number of quali- fed voters, but it is said that since that time interest in the meeting of the present week has much increased, and no doubt the presence of MT. Taft in Manila will further impress the natives, who have great confidence in him, with the importance of the occasion. It is the beginning of the attempt of the United States to give the inhabitants of our Oriental arch ipelago self-government For years the islands must be under the care- full tutelage of Washington, but if they prove themselves worthy of a larger freedom this preliminary grant of self-rule will naturally and inevitably be extended.

SOME THINGS FOR MONEY.

' On the Molua country of Central Africa the savages ingeniously com bine money and weapon in the shape of crtioiform ingot of copper ore 12 inches long In the Niger states the money is enormously heavy rings of brass and ivory, worn as armlets, and anklets and so adding to their use as coin the office of personal adornment They are precisely like the coinage of the ancient Egyptians or the weignty ring money, adjusted to certain weights, which Caesar found when his legions invaded Britain. Bales of calico brass and copper rods specially cast for the purpose in Europe, young slaves of both sexes, and shining beads-all form part of Africa's loose currency.--Saturday Evening Post.

1.-THE MENACE OF AsIA.n
A Pacific Coast View of the Danger to
 Our Shores.

Bishop Thoburn's vast experience and deep Knowledge of Oriental affairs entitle his opinions upon the immigrs- ton problem to respectful considera- tion. He evidently believes that an ethnic movement has begun, some thing like the descent of the Huns up- on Europe, which will translate mil- lions of Asiatics to this coast and plant them here permanently. Whether the white population likes 1t or not will make no difference with the outcome Naturally the bishop assigns occult grounds for his belief He sees some- thing miraculous in the movement of the Oriental populations across the Pacific to America. He seems unable to explain, without recourse to the supernatural, how the band of Hindu laborers reached Be1lingham.
 Perhaps if Bishop Thoburn were more intimate with the ways of the lumber trust he would see less oecas- ion to invoke the supernatural in this instance. But that Asia is stirred by a tidal unrest 1t is impossible to deny. Very likely nothing to compare with 1t has been seen since Genghiz Khan, and what changes it may effect in the world nobody can say. But one may observe that hitherto such vast migra- tions as the bishop predicts have talk en place by land only, never by wa- ter, Certainly never across such an ex- panse of water as the Pacific ocean.
 So long as the Orientals come only in shiploads of hundreds, the whites can easily keep them out. All that is required is determination and vigi- lance. If they enter In numbers suf- ficient to create a menace 1t must be by our permission; they must be al- lowed to accumulate slowly month hy month, year after year. Against this danger public opinion seems to be suf- ficiently aroused to insure adequate defense.
 How can Orientals approach Ameri- ca except by this slow dribbling pro- cess that can be checked at any mo- rnent? Does anybody imagine that they will ever fit out fleet to trans port entire nations simultaneously? It was in nations that Eastern Asia fol- lowed Genghiz Khan and the Huns Atila, but they went by land.
 Surely to start such an emigration across the Pacific miracle would be required, as Bishop Thoburn suggcAts, and a continual miracle would be re- quired to protect it on the voyage, to say nothing of another and greater one when it came to land.
 We can agree with the bishop that incalculable forces are pent up in Eastern Asia; but to us it seems clear that they must discharge themselves westward toward Europe, as they have hitherto invariably done With Russia ripe for overland conquest 1t seems far-fetched to expect the Orient to traverse 10000 miles of water to att tack America.

TEXAS AND THE PUILMANs.
How the Lone Star State Is Biting Off
 Nose to Spite Face.

Is Texas. losing its mind in conse- quence of it's success in taxing cor poratlons out of existence? It is in a condition of wild enthusiasm to say the least. Insurance companies, agri- cultural tool companies and sundry and various other industries have been persuaded to take down their signs and close their offices, unable longer to do business under the con ditions imposed by the legislature, and now the Pullman Car company threatens to follow suit and diseon- tinue its service in that State.
 The Pullman company pays to Tex as five per cent, of It's gross earnings, a tax of twenty-five cents on every $l00 invested in the State beside, and now the State seeks to Impose a tax of s100,00o on its million of capital stock. In addition to this the com pany is put to expense TOT fumigation which is proper enough when an cpl demic is current, but more or less unnecessary at other times, in view of the thorough cleaning and over- hauling which every car receives and and which the ordinary coaches have but rarely.
 The result of these levies has been to reduce the profits of the Pullman company to the point where practical 1.r t- fnF [ tz Io Ali J on behalf of the State that the pub lie finances are at so low an ebb. that these collections are necessary in or der to pay the cost or roads and schools. Texas has been very free in it's taxes of late, and should have a tidy sum on hand from other sources than it's railroads. The taxing in the case of the Pullman company is mere ly phase of foolish and vicious war on capital. War on the corruptions ascribed to capital is just. War orl capital per SC is folly if it is not worse; for in our own StGte if such measures were directed against rail- road corporation as have been insti- tuted in Texas, the public would say at once that the legislators were on strike against the affected companies.
 The Pullman company is and should be amenable to sanitary and salutary laws; It's prices are high; it's sleeping accommodation are not ideal. the extortions of it's porters should not be tolerated; but to say to the people of a State that because of these things, no citizen may ride in Pullman cars hereafter; to compel persons making journeys of hundreds or thousands of miles to sit bolt up- right all night; to deprive through trains of dining cars and chair cars this is to carry regulation to revenge Texas Is In the position Of that mis- taken mortal who cuts off his nose to spite his face. .--Brooklyn Eagle.

DEsrRABnrrY OF SLAVIC WOMEN

Consequently a girl very generally marries on her arrival Tn America or as soon as she Is old enough, or else works few years and then marries. Women have indeed not only scarcity value but consid- erable economic importance.
