DIPLOMATIC E4RES' NESTS

The cable dispatch the other day correcting
careless expressions IN or erroneous differences
drawn from q recent speech 10y The Prime Min
lister Of Canada on Anglo japanese relations
served as needed reminder of the too fire.
Quent imagination OF mares nests, sometimes
by the public and sometimes. apparently, by
statesmen who should be more serious and
thoughtful Sir wilfrid Laurier appears To have
given his hearers the impression that under
the terms Of their alliance Great Britain and
Japan were bound together in all things for
better or for worse, and that if one of them
became involved il war in any part of the
world and for any cause the other would au-
toinatcallF and of necessity be made Co
hell.gerent OF course ii needs nothing more
than an intelligent glance at the readily avail
able text Of the treaty TO demonstrate that that
is not by any means the case. but that the
circumstances in which beIlgerent co-opera-
ton between the two would be required are
carefully and closely restricted. This fact has,
indeed, been SO often and So clearly proclaimed
10 the world that there should really have been
Eo 2oed Of our correspondents correction of
the Dominion minister's strange error. Yet
there was obviously much need of 1t, since the
error uncorrected might have misled mutitudes,
and since the fact that so well Informed a
statesman as Sir Wilfrid Laurier could make
such error suggests that many other men
less ccDfefsaDl WIN PUBIC analrS may nave
slreaIy made the same mistake.
Nor is the Incident by any means singular II
may be because of lingering tradition of the
days OF Metternich, TaIleyrand and before
that all diplomatic ways devious and mys-
terious and that therefore treaties are never
TO be understood by the lay mind; it may he
because Of certain too prevalent superficial
ity and carelessness on the part of the public
in informing itself as TO the terms Of treaties:
or IT may be because of any OF dozen other
conceivable things that such misconceptions and
misstatements arise. Certain ii is that they
do arise. sometimes producing embarrassment
and sometimes even leading to actual trouble.
The case cited by our London correspondent
Is one Of an important though happily not
disastrous character. One of trivial nature

The result of the Kansas special legislative
session is a considerable blow to the Bryan
scheme for the guarantee of bank deposits The
Kansas Senate killed the bill and passed instead
one permitting the formation Of a private IN
surance company in which banks might insure
their deposits if they wished AS such 1nsur-
ance companies have often been projected IN
various parts of the country but have always
failed to interest either the public or the bank
ers. not much is likely to result from the Kan

If the iron and steel trade is to be accepted
as a barometer of German business conditions
the commercial reaction In Germany is similar
TO that here. The Rhenish- Westphalian pig
iron syndicate had hand at the end OF the

orders for 200 at the beginning The Ger
man steel association reports In December a
falling off of 40 per cent from the previous
monthly average of shipments In billets' pars

only of the magnitude of the change but OF
the "suddenness' with which 1t has come. II

Delineator. More than any other de- tail of the toilet they betray the eX- act date of its creation. "A gown is as old as it's sleeve" is an axiom of the dressmaking profession.
 In Paris the short sleeve is already passe. The American woman, how ever. will not drop it abruptly for the long sleeve. She will be inclined to temporize on account of the heat of our long summer but by autumn it is certainty that the short sleeve will have been laid to rest.
 One of the best examples of the typical small sleeve is used in the tailleur. It is full length, of course, close fitting and with no perceptible fullness at the armhole. An excellent phase of it is illustrated in the cos tune of shantung in the shade called ashes of violet" The little coat has a square scanned position back and a deep V-shaped closing in the front that is caught to one side with a darker tone chou of silk, plaited and ruched into a clever semblance of a double violet
 The sleeve is most interesting and for it has but one seam, and that on the outside of the arm. The sleeve buttons from the elbow to the wrist with a bias line of great but bound in cloth. and small round cloth-covered buttons The of the coat is turned under and piped so that the seam is as flat as possible.

LAND OF NOD DISCOVERED.

The History of Christian Science ends in the June McClure's with an analysis of Mrs. Eddy's philosophy" Here is an extract from the article:
 Not to be warned by the foot prints of time, Mrs. Eddy pauses in her revision of Genesis to wonder whence came the wife of Cain?' But on the whole she profits by the story of Cain. for here she finds one of those little etymOlOgical clews which never escape her penetration The fact that Adam and all his race were but a dream of mortal mind is proved, she says, by the fact that Cain went to dwell in the land of Nod. the land Of dreams and illu- sions' Mrs. Eddy offers this serious ly as scientific eXegesis.
 Mrs Eddy's conclusion about the creation seems to be that we are all in reality the offspring of the first creation recounted in Genesis, in which man is not named. but is sim ply said to be in the image of God; but we think we are the children of the creation described in the second chapter; of the race that imagined sickness. sin. and death for itself The tree of knowledge which caused Adams fall. Mrs. Eddy says, was the belief of life in matter, and she sug- gests that the forbidden fruit which Eve gave to Adam may have been a medical work, perhaps

GOVERNMENT ASKS
 FOR BUILDING SHE
Advertisement and Circular Letter From the Architect Posted in the Postoffice Yesterday.

Postmaster McClintock received yes of the treasury department at Wash ington, q copy of an advertisement for the sale or gift to the government, of a site for the proposed federal building in this city. It was posted m the post office in accordance with instructions and was accompanied also by a cir cular letter describing the process of handling this matter.
 The proposal calls for a site 170-196 feet in size. Either dimension is long CT than an ordinary city lot. but that need not necessarily I;eter the owners of suitable property from making a proposition. If a desirable site is found, the alley which runs through it may be closed by the city council and that portion of the site donated to the government, providing other interests are not injured thereby Most people would be willing to have the alley near their property closed, or one end of if at Least, in order tO have the building located near them. The cir cular letter and proposal read as fol- lows:
 Upon the enactment of law au- the acquisition of a site for a federal building, the treasury de- partment invites proposals for the sale or donation of a suitable corner This advertisement gives such infor- nation as to the dimensions of the site and the general requirements as

A NOTABLE BUSINESS DAY.

The Boston Store which yesterday inaugurated its Midsummer Clearance Sale was as near q human beehive yesterday as anybody could imagine It was crowded all day long with customers the day being given over more to country trade and others from out of town and in the even ing the town shoppers turned out in force Women came singly and in parties all seeking the bargain fes- tival and all seeming to find some thing that appealed to them. The store was crowded until late hour and it was necessary to almost force people out when the time came for closing. This store probably never had so busy a day before since it's memorable fire sale when women fought for a position in the ranks of those seeking entrance. The man. agement was delighted with the days patronage and with the magnificent effect of the big page ad in The Republican, which by the way con- tinues with only slight changes nee essary by new dates to keep up with the calendar The force of salespeO- pie will be increased Monday.

THE GERMAN APPETITE.
It Demands Stodgy, Satisfying Food No Dainty Morsels Will Suffice.

Your German does not care for fancy food" says Samuel c. Blythe, in Berlin and Its Burghers," in the June EverybOdy's." He wants grub Eating to him is a sacred ceremony. not to be t<ifled with nor sighted When he eats, he wants to eat, to masticate, to get a realizing sense that he is communing with some thing that has substance in it. There was that occasion when Frederick W. Cauldwell, the American vice consul general in Berlin, decided to give reception to his friends. He went to his ladlady and discussed the refreshments with her. They de- cided on sandwiches and some trifIes of that character. In giving his part ing instructions, CauIdwell said: Be sure to cut the crusts off the bread when you make the sandwiches.
 There was cOnsternatiOn at this. The landlady held consultation with the servants The master of the house was brought into it. The point was debated for half an hour. Cut the crusts off the bread? Preposter- ous! After the situation had been canvassed in all it's details, and the judgment of everybody in the house had been passed on the proposition, the landlady went to Cauldwell.
 Is it sO,'' she asked, that we are to cut the crusts the bread off when the sandwiches we are making?
 Certainly Cauldwell replied.
 An she said. a great light break ing over her. I comprehend at last. Your friends have no teeth

THE AREDALG JURY
 WENT 10 SLIP ON II
There Were Indications Last Night That There Would Be a Disagree ment.

The case of Francisco Arebalo, charged with murderous assault upon three companions one night last Au- gust, was tried yesterday forenoon and at midnight last night the jury had not reached a verdict but had gone to bed.
 Arebalo stabbed two men and tried to stab the third. He escaped the same night and was lost sight of. Shortly before the converting of the late grand jury the sheriff's office came into possession of information that he was in California working on the owens river project. He was soon after arrested and brought back by Sheriff Hayden. In the mean time an indictment had been found against him. Though the testimony was not voluminous it turns out to have been sufficiently confusing to keep the jury guessing for at least twelve hours
 Yesterday was the time for law day but the business of that day was mostly displaced by the Arebalo case in the morning and by the Carr case in the afternoon. Most of the matters set for the day were con tinued to later dates

THE MARKET WAS DULL
 BUT PRICES STRONG
Speculators at the End of the Week Declined to Commit Themselves.

New York, June 6.-Scanty deal ings in the stock market today show ed that speculative interest was de- cidedly less active than in the i'm mediate past. Union Pacific contin ued the dominant leader. Some pub lished estimates of the coming wheat crop giving flattering promise of a good yield was made a sustaining in fluence in stocks. Prices continued to rise without meeting any offerings sufficient to check the advance and the market closed strong in spite of its dullness Bonds were firm.
