damage being confined almost entire

but as the foundations had only been
started in some Of them, the damage
win be chiefly the delay in beginning
the constitution.

ARMY LACKS 10000 MEN.
Something Wrong With Military
Service Ii Seems.

Another evidence that there is
Something wrong with the army"
is contained in the annual report of
Major-General Ainsworth, adjutant
general Of the army, which shows
that the authorized enlisted strength
of the army on October 18th last
was 69,S61, exclusive of the Porto
Rica provisional regiment and the
Philippine scouts, while the actual
number OF enlisted men in the army
on the same date was only 60,190, or
nearly 10000 less than the authorized
strength, says the Washington Post
On October Is, 1906, the deficiency
was only 1880, The S400 enlisted
men in the hospital corps are not
included In the number given. Gen.
eral Ainsworth says the falling off
is due to the fact that it was impos-
sible to obtain enlistments and re-
enlistments sufficient to fill the
places vacated by reason of expira-
ton OF service.

 merit of avoiding indiscriminate agi- tation and light-headed reform
 The more one considers the views Of the various interests which are rom time to time put forth by their spokesmen, the more 1t becomes ap- parent that the problems which are considered with such enthusiasm are the result of ineffectively enforcing the laws as they are rather than the re- suit of inefficient laws. The views of MT Wilson make this clearer and take one more and more away from the advice of the restless reformers and nearer and nearer to that of men who still believe that slight amendment of the law providing the necessary pub licity and official responsibility will make things as good as they can be made under the laws of human nature IS they are now set forth and enforced. Incidentally it may be remarked that it is refreshing to know that the logic of elamor has not entirely overcome old-fashioned processes of thought.

 The New Haven Journal Courier, " as its new name reads, was printed yesterday on it's new Goss press, which outfits the paper with thoroughly modern plant The Courier" as it used to be called for short, Is the oldest daily in the State, having been established in 1882 but, when it's es- teemed editor comes to talk about it's one hundred and forty-one years of existence. he forgets that The Cour- ant" was around in those days and in days still earlier and knows more about them than he does. It Is easy to trace the descent Of a newspaper of day from earlier publications, but this comes usually through successive changes of name, often too, with onls- sions, and is at best only a eonstruc- tive lineage The Courant's9 claim to ,espect for it's age, oldest in the country, is that the name has always been "Courant' that the publication has been continuous, and always in the same town.

VOICES.

Joan of Arc heard voices Many others have heard voices. Some who have heard them have been called in sane by distinguished and undistin- guishod "alienists But pretty soon we shall all be hearing voices. Indeed, we do now over fine telephone wires. But soon the voices are coming right out of nowhere and everywhere. A Danish scientist named Poulson has perfected his apparatus for wireless telephony so that he can talk and be heard distinctly from Copenhagen to Berlin, some 240 miles.
 There doesn't seem to be much use trying to wonder any more, There are so many wonderful things that the ability to wonder Is dulled. Perhaps 1t vi new be claimed that ''the spirit voices and the other voices have II a .ong been real, and that some have been able to hear them while others have not been. Perhaps the Martians will yet be able to talk to us and tell IS about those canals.

ONE DE THE svnrs.

This hopeful and promising world Is somewhat civilized, in spots In the civ ilized spots they are not murdering geeple on account of religion, nor are they murdering people for being witches But what is going on in one of the civilized spots is indicated by the fact that Dr Friedrich Elbogen has prepared 8 petition to the Ernper- or of Austria asking for the pardon of Leopold Hilsner, who was convict ed of ritual murder" and is now serv- ing d life sentence The trial of Hils- ner, he says, fills the most gloomy page in the history of Austria. 4 poor man who never committed a wrong was se- lected as a sacrifice to superstition and party speculation Tn vain have mas ters of the law endeavored to arouse the slumbering sense of justice--the men who spread the ritual murder fol- ly appear to be more mighty than the critics. There seems to be no way to approach the case by legal form, and for that reason the appeal is being made to the throne direct
 The petition is belng circulated for signature, and will be a monster doc ument when it is finally sent to the Emperor, and 1t is possible, not to say probable, that Dr Elbogen will have his freedom. But it is not at all pleas ant to know that in this enlightened day, in an enlightened country, an en- frightened man is in prison on such a
 conviction
