In Germany a nervous state of
mind is indicated, asserts the Chris
tian Register. The kaiser, in the
course of an extended conversation
with the King of Denmark, whom he
was visiting last week. is reported to
have said that Great Britain, by her
alliance with Japan, had committed
a crime against civilization and had
exposed Europe to incalculable dan
gers. Whether the kaiser really did
say what he is reputed to have said
matters little in view of his repeated
expressions of distrust of the growing
power of Japan. Although Germany
has not so much to lose at the hands
of a conquering Japan as some of her
neighbors, and although the foreign
Office in Berlin would naturally re-
gard any contribution to England'j
weight in the councils of the nations
as menace to her own interests, it
is, nevertheless, easy to observe at
the foreign Office in Berlin remark
able desire to placste Japanese amour
propre, combined with an unmistak-
able mistrust of the intentions of the
yellow race as typifed in the Empire
of the Rising Sun.

Not long ago a man who gmok.

Not long ago man who smokes
good cigars came back from Cuba, re-
lates the New York Tribune. There
is law limiting the number of cigars
that can be brought in free to fifty.
This particular man hadn't declared
his cigars, but he was found out all
right. The customs inspectors told
him about the law, and he was the
maddest man in all New York. When
he found there vas no chance for
him he started in to throw the extra
cigars over into the water. The in
spectors let him do it, and he finally
started to walk OF the pier. But the
officers at once seized the cigars that
were left. "You threw your cigars
overheard, you know" was the ex-
PLANTATION. The man fumed and
swore, but it was no use, and the last
straw was added when he was ar
rested ana later fined for throwing
some of the governments cigars into
the water. He buys his cigars right
in New York now.

Coincidence in the Passing of Adams
and jefferson.
July 4, 1926, the tiftieth anniversary
of the signing Of the declaration of in
dependence, was joyous occasion in
the United States. Two distinguished
.signers were still slive-John Adams
and Thomas Jefferson. Twenty-Five
years had elapsed since Adams was
president and seventeen since Jeffer-
son left the white house. ION that
day." says Charles Francis Adams in
his biography of his grandfather,
from one end of the country to the
other, wherever Americans were gath
cred together, the names OF Adams
and Jefferson were coupled in accents
o1 gratitude and praise. Party pas
sions were completely drowned in the
flood of national feeling which over
spread the land" Says Sir George
Otto Trevelyan: "All day long Ad-
ans was sinking rapidly and without
pain. His last audible remark is said
to have been, Thomas Jefferson still
survives But such was not the case.
Jefferson died at noon on that Fourth
of July and Adams shortly before sun.
set. There are few more striking cir.
cumstances and no more remarkable
condolences in history"

Can,t Have His Danghter.

The father of Esther Lazarus, of
Providence, r. l., who went to Pat
erson to have the authorities compel
his daughter to return to her home,
failed in his mission, as Recorder
Carroll decided not to interfere with
the liberty of the girl, who is nine
teen years old. Mr.. Lazarus said in
the Police Court that his daughter
was hayward in Providence, and
that he wishes to have her near home
to watch her. Officials of the chill
dren's society told the Recorder that
Miss Lazarus lived with her aunt,
Mrs. Gussie Barth, in Paterson, and
that she had been working in the silk
mills and saving money. The girl
showed a handbook. The girl bears
a good reputation and says she left
home because of beatings. Colonel
Shelby, of the S. p. G.. c., says Laza-
rus offered him money to send the
girl back to Providence.

Labor Market.

One part of the world raises an
incessant cry for more labor. The
Western States need harvest hands.
the South wants more cotton pickers
and laborers generally, the Panama
Canal Zone cannot get enough
diggers, South Africa quarrela over
a few Chinese, Cuba seeks plantation
hands to handle its sugar crops, the
Hawaiian Islands report never end
ing labor famine, our Pacific Coast
States are in chronic condition Of
under supply of workmen in all en-
terprises. New England is worried
over its servant problem. Another
part of the world has so many la
borers that they starve in heaps. An
automatic equilibrium in human en-
ergy does not exist, and possibly one
never will.-The Springfield Republic

writes correspondent of the New
York Evening Post, that the United
States army is just completing a map
of every inch Of the island Of Cuba,
for use in case 1t ever becomes nee.
essary for the American Government
to occupy the country by force. BY
May / the map was expected to be
finished. The Engineers Corps Of the
army has been deyoting most of its
attention to the undertaking since
last fall, two of the three battalions
having been at work on the island in
the last half of the period Not a
nook or corner, not travelled road
or an obscure trail. has escaped the
map-makers. From Havana to San
tiago. into every province, off and on
the railway lines. the engineers or
representatives of the other branches
impressed for special service have
taken Their surveying instruments.
The strange part of it is that the Gu
ban Government has aided the work
in every way it could, giving orders to
tbs rural guards and local officers in
far away towns to facilitate the engi-
neers' operations whenever possible.
