ROOSEVELT AS A PEACEMAKER.
Influences which Ended the War Be-
tween Russia and Japan.

Leslie's weekly.
The vitality important part which Presi-
dent Roosevelt had in bringing about peace
between Russia and Japan at Portsmouth
will no longer be questioned, in view OF
the statement of Prof. Kovalevsky of the
University of st. Petersburg, who bases
his findings on examination of the official
bearing on the case. The pro-
lessor finds abundant evidence to Justify
his conclusion that American public opinion
and the direct participation of President
Roosevelt in the negotiations, were the
immediate determining elements that led
to the final agreement between Russia
and Japan, and that put an end to the
-frightful loss OF life and property involved
in one of the most destructive wars Of
modern times. Whatever may be said by
the presidents detractors OF his warlike
ambitions and policies, the fact remains
that as a practical advocate Of peace he
has established his standing and been most
deservediy awarded the famous Nobel
prize. One OF Prof. Kovalevsky's revela-
tions Is particularly pleasing, because II
shows once more that the touch Of human
nature which signalizes the character OF
the president. The professor says that in
the last conversation with Count White,
President Roosevelt particularly requested
that attention be given to the question Of
issuing passports for Russia TO respected
American citizens Of Jewish faith. adding
that II this were done he believed that the
last cause OF animosity between Russia
and the United States would be put aside.
The Jewish people in the United States
have every reason TO entertain the pro-
found respect for the president which they
have so conspieuously manifested, and the
recent attempt OF demagogues to impress
upon the Jewish people that President
RoOsevelt's former secretary OF war, now
the republican candidate for the presi-
dency, was not in hearty sympathy with
the presidents efforts TO tighten the bur-
dens OF the Russian Jews. is as weak Gs II

LOUISE CHANDLER MOULToN.
Passing of n Fine Type of the Ameri.

Washington Herald

can Woman of Letters.
Washington Herald.
I'VE lay us down to sleep
And leave to God the rest,
Whether TO wake and weep
Or wake no more be best.
No task have we begun
But other hands can take,
No work beneath tho sun
For which we need to wake"
This, from the b~est-known poem by
Louise Chandler Moulton, comes to mind
as the news comes of her death. She was
one of the ~best-known of the women
writer's of this latter age, though her
literary activity and usefulness extended
far back into the last century. She was
born in 1885 and she came of a family that
loved letters. One Of her ancestors was
the Rev. Aaron Cleveland, a well known
eighteenth century New England poet.
She began to write when very young
and her first book was published when
she was only Is. It was called This,
That and the Other" Before she was 20
she had published her first novel, Juno
Clifford" At % years of age she married
William A. Moulton, editor and publisher
Of a weekly paper in Boston. and soon
afterward she became a contributor TO the
Harper publications, the Atlantic Monthly,
the Galaxy and Scribner's. She was for a
time the Boston literary correspondent Of
the New York Tribune
In 1873 Mrs. Moulton seems to have
struck a new vein In her children's
stories. for which she became famous. She
started with Bedtime Stories" which was
so popular with the little ones that it was
followed by More Bedtime Stories" and
then by New Bedtime Stories" At the
same time she kept up her other literary
likings, and she wrote love stories and
volumes of travel that were very readable
and which added to her fame.
But II the name of Louise Chandler
Moulton is to live It will be because of
her poetry, OF which she turned out a
great bulk, most OF it above the averages;
some of 1t amazingly good; lyrics and
sonnets: In the Garden of Dreams"
Poems by L. c.. M" Swallow Flights
and so on. OF this latter volume an Eng
glish critic declared:
ut is not too much to say of these
poems that they exhibit delicacy and rare
beauty, marked originality and perfection
of style. What is still better, they impress
US with a sense of vivid and subtle i'm
agination. and that spontaneous feelings
which is the essence OF lyrical poetry"
Mrs. Moulton was a frequent visitor TO
Europe, and in England especially sho
made a great number of friends in the
world Of letters. In her person she stood
fr the best examplification of the Ameri-
can literary spirit; and though, perhaps.
the years to come will not accord her a
place alongside the greater American
poets, it is hardly likely that her influ-
ence, sane, helpful. and wholly for the
good, will ever be forgotten.

Giving Himself Away.

One of those smsrty young cadets at
West Point comes to the front long enough
to say tina hazing teaches youngsters ito
obey without question; and that is one OF
the essentials of a good soldier" The COM
plete asinitity Of this young mans argu-
ment is shown in the fact that the very
thing for which his comrades have been
hauled up is not obeying the plain law Of
the institution at which they are being
educated.

NETWORKS lDEA OF FUN.

Since the days when Harry Lehr in
troduced the monkey dinner at New
port, readers Of the newspapers have
been more or less prepared for queer
doings from that social center. AS
people understand 1t, no one can enter
the social whirl at Newport unless he
is grossly rich and the possessor of a
brain filled with scintillating humor.
Beauty and dress are minor matters
with this ultra social set, whose mem
bers go in for intellectual aristocracy.
The following excerpt from a Newport
dispatch to the New York Herald will
give a hint of the overwhelmingly funny
things they do there:
Birdie Goelet is always ready for a joke,
Certainly he perpetrated one last Saturday
evening, when his mother, Mrs. Robert
Goelet, gave a dance for him. The favors
were beautiful, but in the Uncle Sam fig
ure Birdie awarded the prizes personally,
and gave out brand new s and 1O-cent
pieces. These are being kept as souvenirs.
and their owners are awaiting his next
Joke.
It is no longer difficult to under
stand why the colony at Newport is so
numerically small. Persons of just
ordinary intelligence would be unable
to stand the strain of keeping pace
with such outbursts of brilliancy. 1t
takes years Of breeding and training
to fit a person to appreciate Birdie
Goelet's jokes.
