The theories are like tine moving pie lures. All you've got to do to see them change is to wait little. Now comes Professor Behring of Berlin saying that the pasteurization of milk makes 1t unfit food for infants. Apparently tfle question hinges on the chemical or other change in milk caused by raising 1t to the temperature required in the Pasteur process, which practically makes it "scalded" milk. The profes- sor also goes so far as to declare that the boiling of water for drinking pur- poses, while it may serve to kill many germs, destroys elements destined by nature to create bone and sinew in the human system.
 Pay your money and take your choice. It seems to be impossible to live forever in this world, and the the orists and other things tend to mix up the situation so that 1t is hard to know how to live little while in it.

NEW HAVEN MORNING COURIER

One consequence of the disturbances at the capital is the prediction that the new Douma will be dissolved be- fore it has any chance to address it. self to the task before it. SucS2 dis solution would be another sign of evil omen. The Government must either make up it's mind to give the representative assembly some power or face revolution. It is impossible to call 8 body of lawmakers together and then tell them there is nothing for them to do. TrueS there Is large Radical element in the Douma, and this element is undisguisedly hostile as NJ. Stolypin. True, also, bad spirit was shown at the opening ses- sion in the refusal of the Radicals to cheer the name of the Czar and in their ostentatious contempt of the reliogious service which preceded the session. But in the lection of a President they made good choice in a good way. They selected for the of flee M. Feodor Golovin, and they gave him an all but unanimous vote. With a body divided into so many groups this was an earnest of practical poli- cal sense which must be regarded as very encouraging. It suggests that the
 Russian people are less unfit for parliamentary government than many
 perons have believed.
 M. Golovin is the kind of man whom the Czar, were he wise, would grap- 1,1a to hic col,I xpith hooks of Stnal He
 is far from being a revolutionary He is President of the Moscow Zemstvo, and a man of substance and social position. He certainly cannot wish to
 see the existing order swept away and a regime of spoilation and bloodsled
 instituted in it's place. And the fash ion in which the Douma turned to him i is 8 sufficient indication of his capa- city for leadership. Such man as he
 ought to be able to stand between the
 reactionaries and the revolutionists
 and bring both to a better frame of
 min. Will he have an opportunity That is the real question. The Czar and his advisers are apparently so afraid of revolution that they have not the courage to meet the danger in the only practicable way-by giving
 confidence and heed to moderate men of M. Golovin's type. It is significant to learn that Count Witte takes a pessimistic view of the situation and
 anticipates the speedy dissolution of
 the Douma. But that way madness | llies.-Providence Journal.

INFLUExCE WELL ExERTED.

Fehim Pasha, who has been banished from Constantinople through the inhu- ence and efforts of the German ambas- sador to Turkey, seems to have been what is called a precious rascal. The crime which brought him to grief was the conascation of quantity of lum- Der owned by a German subject. AL though he was a notorious brigand and criminal, he had long defed the combined diplomatic influence of Eu- rope. He was the son of Abdul Ham, ids foster-brother, was bred up more or less in the palace, and as boy gained the favor of the present Sultan and of his father. He went into the army and was speedily promoted to be aide-de-camp to the Sultan, and a gen. eral of division. He first came into notoriety by walking out of his house in the capital, revolver in hand, and shooting down the passersby in the street. Fourteen persons, it is said, were wounded in this murderous .esca- pade, and the wounds of some are be- lieved to have been fatal; but no notice seems to have been taken of this amia- ble freak. Fehim took a principal part in working the ruin of Marshal Fuda Pasha by supplying the Sultan with re- ports against that distinguished soldier. The work of an informer and spy-mas- ter appealed to his instincts and tastes. He adopted it as a profession and soon was practical master of the liberty and property of every Turkish man and woman in the capital. Abdul Hamid sought to buttress up the system of personal rule by an elaborate spy-sys- tenn, and Fellim Pasha was the chief of his spy department in Constantino- pie.
 Constantinopie will breathe freer and feel freer, for awhile at least. Germany has helped many by this move.

HERE TOO.

A legislative committee in Pennsyl- vania is trying to find out whether there was dishonesty and fraud in spending $9,000,000 for furnishing the $4,OoO,O 900 Capitol at Harrisburg. This moves the esteemed Providence Jour nal to modestly remark: This investi- gation may serve to 4remind Rhode Islanders that their handsome State House was erected without fraud or scandal The citizens of the Commits sion who are responsible for tbis pleas ing fact will doubtless tell anybody that no man merits praise for not being dis honest, but in an era when public buildings are too oftep monument of corrupt contracts and political graft we may all rejoice that no money was mis- appropriated which was set aside for our superb Capitol. It is the best ad- vertisement which the Republican par ty, the dominant party during the period of construction, can make use of; it is an asset of no mean value It proves beyond cavil that, with the right grade of men in charge of public building, grafters will find cold comfort in it's construction.
 We feel moved to remark, Here too Connecticut has a Capitol which has greatly pleased, and still, in spite of higher criticism, greatly pleases, her people And they were and are greatly pleased with the fact that 1t was hon. estly built within the appropriation. It is worthy and enduring monument to all who quietly did their duty in mak- ing it.

maid; and, although those now en- gagged in such service may so continue until death or resignation, thousands of barmaids of all ages are up in bare arms at the prospect of having this lucrative, picturesque and classic oc- cupation barred to their sex.
 It is estimated that there are 3O,- 600 barmaids in England 5000 of whom are in London. They are proud of the history of the guild and are prepared to demonstrate that theirs Is no fit oc- cupation for men. The hame Secret ary, MT. Gladstone, is said to be the person of greatest official consequence who has yet been identified with the proposed measure; and it seems likel! ttlat he will need more courage to look the barmaids in the eye than is ordi- narily necessary in England, these days, to face a mob of suffragettes.- Providence Jouranl

WE'LL SIR.

Objection is raised in New York to the expression well sir" as used by clerks in addressing those who go into stores to look or buy. One complainer says: "The emphasis on the first word and the manner and tone of this 'salu- tation are such that I admonish a clerk so greeting me that he is either insolent or foolish to treat person wishing to buy as if he were an intrud- er,"
 There may be some clerks In New York who make their Well sir" of fensive, but we doubt if there are many. And there cannot be any fair objection to eWell sir properly used. If it is mildly, politely and pleasantly put in the form of question, intended to pleasantly indicate to a customer that clerk would be glad to know his state of mind so>as to be able to help him to decision, 1t Is all right. Of course if it is used with an exelama- tion mark harshly and peremptorily it can be fairly objected to. Perhaps it is so used to a limited extent in the big city of New York. But a clerk there or elsewhere who knows his bus mess and wants to do it for the inter- est of his employers and himself would never think of so using It.

SIGNS OF EVIL OMEN.

The serious rioting in St. Peters, burg which followed the opening of the new Douma must be regarded as one of several signs of evil omen for the future of Russia, Doubtless it is easy to exaggerate the force of the revolutionary feeling in that country. Even those who have studied the situation at first hand admit that 1t perplexes them, and that the state of public sentiment among the masses, so far as it exists, is difficult to fathom. But the conclusion that there Is in- tense dissatisfaction with the Govern ment seems to be fully justified. If this dissatisfaction continues to take shape in popular disorders, the Gov ernment will plainly have to meet it by force, and all hope of peaceful constitutional development for the em- pire will vanish. The St, Petersburg rioters are in fact enemies of the Russian people just as dangerous as the reaetionaries whowould have the Czar make no concessions whatever. The very threat of further assassina- tions and a reign of terror is as much blow at liberty as at tyranny.

AMERICAN THINGS IN MANN

AMERlCAN IHlNGS IN MANN
 HEM.
 There has been marked tendency to adopt Amerisan styles in shoes and in mems clothing. The fashion plates displayed in the windows of most of the mems tailoring establishments in this city are Ameriian styles. These plates are followed not only in styles of cutting, but in materials used, in neekwear, etc. American shoes are sold in several stores, but not to the extent that their superiority would seem to warrant All the principal American typewriters are sold in Mannheim, as well as large quantities of cash registers, roll-top desks, combination bookcases, cameras and photographic supplies, carpet-sweep- CTS ice-cream freezers, and other arti- cles of household use. American ad- ding machines and pianolas are of- fered, but have not as yet been large- | ly sold here. The Singer Sewing Ma chine company, true to It's usage, dis plays it's goods in an excellent loca- tion, not only in this city but In sev- eral other cities of the district. Ameri- can cut glass and other table glass; ware have formed attractive holiday displays. Many novelties and notions are offered at various stores of the city Leather dressings and other similar preparations are found in many stores. Phppographs are said to l have had a considerable sale.
 l But one American cereal is offered here, so far as Is noted, American evaporated fruits are widely sold. Winter apples are offered at high prices Canned meat products are kept in few stores, but their sale Is re- 1 ported small. A fairly complete line of American bottled goods has been off, fered the past few months, somewhat as an experiment. which has been only partly successful, due somewhat to the high rates of duty paid by this class of goods, which in some cases amounts to about or quite 100 per cent. of the wholesale price in the United States. The steady growth in popular ity in this class of goods In the United States would seem to show that by special effort In the larger German cities their use might be considerably increased, even at the high prices at which they have to be sold,
 American mowers, reapers, harvest CTS, hayrakes, and few other agri- cultural implements have had a con- siderable trade in this part of Ger many, due largely to the consummate skill with which they nave been handled. No more admirable text book could be placed in the hands of those who would sell American pro- ducts abroad than concise history of the methods which have placed an American mower and harvester in SC many grass and grain fields of the world.- Consul Fl.

Tn the multitude of counsellors there is safety" says the Bible. The Presi- dent is going to have many counsellors in railroad matters, and all interested in the prosperity of the country are hoping that safety will come out of what is now a disturbed and disturb ing state of things. MT. Mellen is one of the counsellors and he went to Wash ington yesterday to talk with the President. How well he understands the situation was shown in his Hartford address, and how earnest and sincere he is in his desire to help better it was shown in the same address. Deep ly impressed as he is with the gravity of the problem. and regardful of the interests of the public as he has shown himself to be, he is a counsellor who may be expected to contribute to safe7 ty. There have been and will be other counsellors who can be depended on to try to discern and counsel the right thing, and of course the President means to do the right thing. So there is good ground for faith that out of the counselling safety will come.

Some new recommendations have been made to the War department re- speoting the proposed artificial island which is to be constructed at the en- trance to Chesapeake Bay, if congress will grant the authority. This island will be built up from a submerged ledge, and it was originally suggested that it contain a battery which would command the approach to the bays entrance. It Is now recommended that the artificial island be made sufficiently large to contain quarters and barracks for men and a parade ground for drill, together with suitable storehouses for the provisions and ammunition requir- ed for a protracted period. It is also recommended that there be constructed an artificial harbor to accommodate the supply boats and submarines, the lat ter to form an adjunct of the coast de- fense system. These recommendations are the result of observations made abroad by Major-General John P. Story (retired), who is continuing some valuable work in connection with the development of the coast defenses of

Dr. Oerums or the Finsen Institute of Copenhagen, has carried out a number of experiments on the effect of light on the blood. He has found that dark ness reduces the total amount of blood by 8 to 3.3 per cent, while decreasing at the same time the amount of blood contained in the heart Red light has an effect like that of darkness, while blue light is likely to result in an ex- cess of blood and an increase in the amount contained in the heart, Light baths are likely to increase the amount of blood in the course of few hours Darkness will increase, and intensive light will reduce the blood pressure Animals born in the dark or in red light have greater weight, but only half the mount of blood of those born under normal conditions.

The First Spring.

Through the ether farand blue
 With cunning motion Whirled And a low, insistent hum,
 Reeled our world By the self-same practiced hands
 Cast with countless other stars, Wound with even greater speed
 Turned red Mars. Belted Saturn in it's groove
 On it's spacious orbit bound Like dervish swift revolved
 Round and round. Then all knew that 1t was spring,
 Sign that winters season stops, For the high gods in their play
 Spun their tops. --McLandburgh Wilson in New York
