THE LAND OF ROMANCE.
Spain ana the Peculiar Temperament
OF It's People.

Spain ana the Peculiar Temperament
OF It's People.
If / were asked to sum up the domi-
nant impression that the survival in
Spain OF the old world mediaevalism
makes. 1 should say that Spain Is in
the precise and specific sense of the
word the home Of romance. The spe-
cial character of the Spanish tempera-
ment and of Spanish developments in
literature and In art Is marked by Il
quality, rising and sinking with the
rise and fall Of Gothic, which we call
the romantic spirit-a mixture, TINT is,
of the mysterious and grandiose with
the grotesquely bizarre of the soarIngly
ideal with the crudely real, n mixture
which to us today has the cunning fas-
cination of art. but was really OH both
sides the natural outcome of the ex-
pcriences and feelings Of the men who
created 1t. This romantic spirit was
once the common possession OF ali
Christendom, but the Spanish temporal
ment peculiarly lent itself to the ro-
mantle attitude, and it Is In Spain to-
day that we may catch Its final vanish
Ing echoes. 1t is the church, always
the most powerful stronghold of tradl-
tlon among any people, which enables
the stranger most WILDLY to realize
how well the romantic spirit has been
preserved In Spain. Notwithstanding
invasions from without aud revolutions
from within, especially during the
early years of the last century, Spain
Is still the country where the mediae-
val spirit of romantic devotion Is most
splcndidly embodied and preserved

ted, therefore, only once every two

the present arrangement is that
most of the general Legislation must
be considered In the committees
where about twenty-five per cent OF
the members are sitting for the first
time. During the second session
abouty twenty-five per cent arc sit

interest is diminished. Thus the
work of tho committees suffers dur
Ing both sessions, TO some extent.
Another objection is the power
that the committees WELD during
the second session. Time will not
admit of close scrutiny by indi-
vidual members OF even the appro.
prlation bills. They are necessarily
held back until late. and showed

chance Of change In the system

better method IL Congress divided
It's work into two sessions of six
mouths each. The stumbling block
is that Representative does not
take his seat now until nearfy
thirteen months after he is elected,
unless an extra session is called.
The matter is worth Keeping an eye
on, for the rush which will charac-
tcrize the termination of this Con.
gress will again attract attention
to the faults of our system.

SPECIALIZATION IN wARsHIps

The universal tendency of spe.
cialization has already produced
some curious results in the modern
navies. We do not refer so much 10

selves to two, as to auxiliaries for
special purposes of supply and re.
pair. The old fleets had the two
general types of line and batleship
and frigate, each wholly sufficient
to itself and able to fight or cruise
alone or in company. The supplies,
water and ammunition of that time
were carried by each ship for itself,
though sometimes transferred back
ana forth, as one had more need
than another. All repairs outside
the dock yards were made on board
the ship needing them by her own
crew.

been familiar features for many
years. The Spanish war introduced
us to several more floating tyres,

The head ordinance officer of the
navy now urges Congress to adopt a
new type; namely, that of the am.

CONGRESS, FAULTY SYSTEM.

Congress is now engaged in Civ.

food for thought. At this writing
the date Of final adjournment is
only two months away and sun.
stantially every important appro-

on. Yet to all appearance both
the House and Senate are pro
ceeding as though time were un
limited. In addition there are
many matters of grave Importance
