Emmeline's Experiences.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
II have had some queer experiences in
street and elevated cars" said Emmeline.
lone day last week l went into street
car that was so crowded that not only were
all the seats occupied but all the straps
had somebody holding to them, and there
seemed to be no place for me, but present.
ly a polite gentleman who was holding on
by strap gave 1t up to me.
Wasn't that a queer thing to happen?
But 1 had stranger experience today in
an elevated car.
you know the cross seats in the elevated
cars and how some people when they can't
get seat prefer rather than to hold on to
a strap to stand leaning up against the
back of one of those cross seats?
"Well, today 1 went into an elevated car
in which every seat was taken and every
strap, and when I had worked my way
along to those cross seats 1 found that the
backs of those were taken, too, but as I
came up man who was leaning up against
one of them moved away and said:
Madam, will you take this back?"

DUTCH BOOM IN LONDON.
Visit of Netherlands Sovereigns Would
Give Climax to Present Fad.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON, March 3O.-Only a visit from
Queen Wilhelmina and her consort, Prince
Henry, who played notable part in the
rescue of the survivors Of the wreck of the
Berlin, is necessary to give the finishing
touch to the boom in all things Dutch
which appears to have swept over London
during the past few weeks.
A visit from the young Dutch queen, who
has never paid state visit to London, is
believed to be within the bounds of prob
ability this year, and London seems to be
unconsciously preparing for the event.
Dutch art, Dutch songs-or at least songs
about Holland-and Dutch shoes are becom-
ing more and more popular. A few years
ago Mr. Nico Jungmans Dutch pictures
began to take the public fancy.
A year ago the print shop windows began
to be filled with Dutch figure sketches
rows of little Dutch boys In baggy trousers
and sabots. and Dutch girls in little round
bonnets, pigtails and sabots, and old Dutch
fishermen and fishwives in the quaint CO.'S
tune Of the low country-including sabots.
The pictures of quaint Dutch clothes, and
especially the sabots, struck the popular
taste, and now the real sabot has invaded
London 1t hangs in the shop windows in
the West End and the suburbs tied up
with ribbons and labeled Dutch sabots for
English feet
A pair of sabots has become the latest
fancy with the girl with trim pair of
ankles and "sabot tea parties with Dutch
costume and Dutch songs, are beginning to
enliven the suburban home.
The theater and the music hall have also
taken up the Dutch boom. Miss Hook of
Holland has been enjoying success at the
Apollo and at half a dozen halls in London
and dozens throughout the country Dutch
songs are the order of the day.
The latest features of the Dutch boom
are in picture postcards and newspaper ad-
vertisement pictures after the pattern OF
the old Dutch tile.

Sunday Morning ak
A Festival Of Life.

II half Of what Is set forth in the
churches on Easter Sunday as solemn
truth were really believed, even by church
people themselves, the popular thought
would be so permeated with the fact of i'm
mortality that not all the deaths Of the
year as 1t circles around could dim Its
reality. Then Easter would be not time
for showing off costly wardrobes or of law
ish floral displays, but 1t would be a SPLEEN
did festival Of life and great outbursts Of
praise would carry to every distant quar-
ter of the earth, to every mourner sitting
in the ashes of his hopes, to every fearful
soul, conscious of the mortality of the
flesh, not alone the glorious tidings: Christ
Is Risen," but the equally comforting as
surance that the Christ type of life is in
the nature of the case, and in every age
and cline, itself resurgent.
But humanity hardly dares to claim its
birthright. Religion is sometimes too mi
serly of it's great doctrine of the resurrec-
ton and even good people plan their ca
reers and order their daily life and carry
themselves in society and behave in private
as if they had no jubilant joy-giving con-
victions on the subject of immortality.
They say with the poet:
IT'S life of which nerves scant,
IT'S life. not death for which we pant,
More life and fuller that we want.
But the saints and heroes of the race
have not been mere yearners for the fuller
life. They realized the fact that here and
now they had entered upon the endless life.
They were not ignorant Of the ravages OF
death, but they also understood what death
was powerless to do. They know that
death has been reigning since Adam and
that all our boosted modern discoveries for
fighting disease can postpone the inevitable
end but few years at most. Nevertheless
measuring death at it's full strength, admit
ting its cruelty and ugliness they have said
in substance to the men of their respective
generations, Quarrel not with death. 1t
can stop the pulse, but it cannot still the
life. 1t may be that we shall see when we
are on the hither side of death, that it
was the most tender agency God could en-
ploy to usher his children into a life whose
richness and reach we can only d1mly COM
prehend here
So the fields of space must be peopled
with myriads of living souls. And If any
of US have, since last Easter, lost those
who were very dear to us we ought to
non-eXistent. We may apostrophize them
as Aldrich in his exquisite poem at the
Cambridge centenary apostrophized his
friend Longfellow:
Oh reverend feet,
That walk in far celestial ways
How far, we know not, how we know not but
lowered with immortal life-this is sure.
Nothing, then, Is too good for the Easter
festival of life, provided our thought dwells
inner meaning of the day. We lay aside
the spirit of heavness and repining and put
on the garments of praise, for
Life is ever lord of death,
And love can never lose Its own.

EDUCATION IN DENMARK.
Question Of Second University Taking
an Interesting Form.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
COPENHAGEN, March 3O.-Twenty years
ago the question of second university IN
Denmark was raised, it being claimed that
it should be established at Aarhuus, the
capital of Jutland. This claim for new
university equal to that existing in Copen-
hagen has now taken a very interesting and
tangible form, seeing that at a meeting
just held there it was advocated by men
in the front rank of the scientific world
and by others on political grounds To
foreigners it may seem ridiculous that a
nation with population of less than 3, 0OO,-
000 should have two universities But in
reality the situation is not as it might ap-
pear.
For many years there has been move
ment in the Jutland peninsula tending to
separation from the islands, with their COM
manding center of culture in Copenhagen.
The difference between these two halves of
the Danish kingdom may be Illustrated by
the simple fact that the dialectical differ
ences between the West Jutland peasants
and the inha bitants of Copenhagen are as
great as those between the latter and the
other Scandinavian peoples. Sympathy
with the new university idea is unexpected
ly great.

EFFECTIVE BURGLAR TRAP.
A Swiss Landlord Invented an Auto.
matte Pistol.

Special Cablegram to The Star
GENEVA, March 3O-A local landlord
named Clement, who lost heavily through
burglaries in a number of his houses In the
suburbs of Geneva, recently invented an
automatic pistol which has proved an eff
fective burglar trap.
The pistol, which fires small shot, was so
attached to locked window or door that
en- attempt to force it open discharged the
weapon.
While visiting some Of his uninhabited
villas at Collonges, NJ. Clement found a
shutter on one house broken and the pistol
thereto discharged A trail of blood ex-
tended from the house for distance of 500
yards.
The police learned that a man named
Boissonett had been admitted to a local
hospital suffering from shot wounds In the
face. He was arrested and confessed to
attempted burglary.

Glass Eyes From Thuringia.

The glass eye crop comes from Thuringia
AS Observation-Disclosures are fishermen, or as
Cubans are tobacco growers, so the typical
Thur,ngian is a maker of glass eyes.
Almost every Thuringian house is little
eye factory. Four men sit at table, each
with gas jet before him, and the eyes are
blown from plates and nodded into shape
by hand. The colors are traced in with
small needles. and as set rule is OBJ
served In the coloring, no two eyes are ex
actly alike.
Sometimes a one-eyed man or woman
coming, maybe, from a great distance, sits
before one of these Thuringian tables posins
for glass orb and the artisan, with hi.
gas jet, his glass and his needle, looks UP
at his sitter and. then down at his work
and altogether the scene suggests por-
trait painter at work in his studio.
