NIGHT BY THE SEA.

woke In the black watches of the nIEht
And heard the low intoning Of thu
main,
A muffed heartbeat. an unceasing
strain
OF music keyed to dolor and delight
Now sorrow seemed ascendent. now the
height
OF rapture beat IN the sublime refrain.
Until the whole worlds happiness
and pain
Had echoed Utterance while the dark
took fight.
Then in the sound Of that -eiterant
surge
7 marked my own LIES fiux Of bliss
and woe
Griefs long-drawn sigh and Joys ex-
ultant call;
TIL, borne by dreams beyond the vast
Sea-Verge,
touched those shores the blest i'm
niortals know.
Where youth and love have triumph
over all.

Yes; Men Do Love Women,
Say Youths of Virginia
After a Lively Debate

Man may breathe again! His tender
emotion for the fair sex has been vim
dicated. Man loves woman.
The Young Peoples Senate. in execu-
tive session last night. decided this.
The Young Peoples Senate is an Alex

meets at a hall on South Washington
street, Alexandria, and its sole endaa-
Yor Is deciding all perplexing problems
for the human race.
Last night a. paper, filed with food for
thought and spattered ink, was brought
forth before the senate for IT'S deIec-

and say, How absurd; Of course men
love women. a" it is necessary 10 explain
the line OF argument pursued by the
paper.
What the member wanted to know
was. When a man IS in love with a
woman and says he is IN love with
woman, and acts Ike he Is in love with
woman and doesn't eat and can't
sleep and loses weight and otherwise
demonstrates that he IS in love: is he
really in love with the woman or IS
his love not love. but something else2H

SO IL has come 10 pass that the ju-
dietary reception has fallen into the dom

necessity Of giving their young ladies
the benefits attending a White House
reception. They want TO get invitations
some one Of the occasions. and they

The result Is obvious, though not

In his breath. He was preparing TO
unfold before the amazed and startled
eyes OF the senators his third and final
exhibit

There IS a man. Look at Sampson.
Sampson revealed the secret OF his
supernatural physical prowess to q
woman. Afterward he submitted to the

companied by cries Of Go 20 It, kid, -"

At the close Of Senator Gamers eff
fusion Senator Charles Wright arose
and addressed the meeting. Concern
ing the latter gentleman's illumination
there is only one thing that can be
said. He was too radical. He was en-
tirely too progressive. His address was
calculated 70 make Old-fashiOued woman

young ladies to suggest the adyisability

Women Inferior.
He said that women were inferior.
but that was the least he said. He said
that nler could not trust women; that
women were made for men; not men for
women; that women were merely neces-
sary articles about the house; that
women were the root Of all evil"
He branded himself as an iconOclast
OF unbelievable magnitude. He cyni-
cally suggested that II women were
more ike men, men would love them
more. He roasted every woman he
could think Of from Eve to Carrie Ma
ton.
lie pointed out that the evil spirits,
such as the sirens, the Nedusa, and the
many witches, now famous IN the le-

were always women. Then Senator
Wright sat down.
But that senate had an amount OF
chivairOus reputation 10 uphold Every
member OF the senate was from Viz
8inia. Each and every member OF the
senate was Southern gentleman 50
when 1t came TO a vote they braveIy
cost Senator Wright's arguments aside
and voted that men did love women.
Thus are mans virtues extOIled and

In Bad.

Four American jurisdictions are
without a particular law for the
regulation of child labor. They
are:
Nevada.
New Mexico.
The Philippine Islands.
The District Of Columbia.
Several of the States have poor
laws. Several have good laws poor
" enforced. But only these four
territories utterly lack particular
law on this subject. Some bill TO
safeguard the Capital by protecting
its children-either that introduced
Monday by Senator Gallinger or
some other-should pass Congress
before the District has endured an
other year of this shameful distine-
ton.

How Japan Limits. .

Like their Chinese cousins, the
japanese have an innocent air and a
ready tongue.
We have assurances from Tokyo
that the emigration question, so far
as it concerns the United States,
may be considered res ndiudicata--a
dish cooked TO a turn. Also we are
assured that Japan's military prep
arations are directed against no
particular antagonist. There is a
Tong coast line from Saghalien to
FOrmosa." There is another long
coast line from Seattle TO Santa
Barbara. ''Eventualitics on the Pa
cific," as they say where the
chrysanthemums grow, must be
considered. And it must be remem-
bered that it takes two to make a
fight
Incidentally, henccforth emigra-
ton from Japan to Hawaii is lin
tied" as follows:
First-TnOse who have been in Hawaii
and desire to so again.
Second The parents, wives, children,
brothers, and sisters OF the persons who
are at present living in Hawaii.
Third-The husbands and wives OF the
brothers and sisters included in the sec
Ond class.
There are now between 10000 and
$4,000 japanese in Hawaii. Under
the foregoing limitations, we are
told, 1t is possible for 100000 more
TO come" The total population of
the islands when the last Federal
census was taken numbered 154, 900.
Under the new regulations Hawaii
may easily enough become some
thing like japanese settlement
under American control.

THE ONE BEST BET

An analysis of the political situation today,
and careful estimate of the personal and run
ming strength of the various candidates in the
Presidential race, point emphatically to the con-
clusion that Mr. Roosevelt will be renominated
in spite Of himself And his denomination will
mean his reelection by majority of matchless d-
mansions. THIS IS THE ONE BEST BET.
