Southern Pacific is Ssekia5 M1re Dir gel
 Route into Mexico City.

It is reported on excellent authority that the Southern Pacific agehtS are working buying u0 property around Guadalajara in order to get direct entrance into the city which will make unnecessary the present roundabout route that is followed in getting intO the city. The Souther- Pacific trains now have to run over the Mexican Central tracks for d short distance, backing out of Guadalajara until they get to the point where their own tracks branch off and then the trip 60 points along the Southern Pacific line is really begun.
 It has been expected for some time that the company would eventually attempt to acquire the necessary property for direct entrance into the city.
 What the plans of the company are in the way of starting the construc- tion of track in the near future or whether great deal of property has been purchased is not known, but that the purchasing of the property has been ln progress is said to be a fact. -.Ex

WARNING TO LEOPOLD.
COMNONS act ON CONGO.
Resolution to Force the Speedy
Transfer of Control.

London Feb. 26-The House OF Commons to-
night, after short debate adopted a resolu-
ton asking the government ito do all in its
power to secure the transfer of the control OF
the Congo Independent State, and, failing such
transfer within a bic time, assuring the
government of Parliaments hearty support of
any measures that it might be necessary for the
British government 10 take either alone or in
conjunction with the powers that signed the
Berlin act. to insure the effective carrying out
of its provisions
Speeches on both sides of the house severely
indicted the existing administration of the
Congo Independent State and urged the govern
ment to take steps to leave the Belgian gov
ernment in doubt regarding the settled de-
termination of the people TO assert Great Brit
aims treaty rights.
Sir Edward Grey, Secretary for Foreign At
fairs, in a speech synpathtzing with the terms
of the resolution repudiated on benalf Of the
government any desire to establish political or
territorial claims Go anything directed
against the Belgian people. No transfer he
said, would be satisfactory unless it gave the
Belgian parliament a free hand and full control
1t would be impossible for Great Britain to take
the initiative while the discussion the Congo
question was proceeding between King Leopold
and his people. But he added, this govern
ment will always welcome the cooperation OF
the other powers and if at the close of the Bel
gian parliament session we have to deal with
the existing government of the Congo unchanged
we must be free TO deal with the questions aris-
ing out of our treaty rights in our own
way.
Il welcome the cooperation of the United
States That. at any rate. we have, and the
House cannot value it too highly. After all, the
great weapon that has been of value so far in

that the American Consul has issued report

years ago, when he himself declared that his great
creative works were unworthy and altogether evil.
Here is his own account of the split in his life:
Il had tried to test science and modern Gull
ture, and l have turned from them with a feeling
of reDulsion because of the inability of the first
to solve the really important problems of life
and because of the hollowness and falseness or
the second"
BY becoming chummy with the peasant Tolstoi
declares he turned to frankness, simplicity and
essential kindness, and he says he is to-day near
er mother earth than ever in his life. He declares
the peasant, typically, is the ideal Christian. And
thus since 1875 his writings have been almost ex-
clusively polemic and didactic.
To-day Count Leo Tolstoi is a large, heavily
built man with unusually long arms, hanging
loosely at his sides, with a wide nose, somewhat
thick lips, small gray eyes, a head set on bulky
but slightly STOPPING shoulders and a matted
white beard. He possesses an air of strength
that is found in few great men. The power that
one finds in him is both mental and physical, and
hence of the durable sort.
One of this mans great themes is the Sermon
on the Mount. In this he has declared that
he found five laws of God and he has made them
his rules for faith and conduct throughout the
later years of his life. These laws are sum-
married. as follows:
Live in peace with all men and do not regard
any man as your superior.
Do not make the beauty of the body an occasion
for lust.
Every man should have one wife and every
woman one husband, and they should not be d.
vorced for any reason.
Do not revenge yourself and do not punish 9TH
ers because you think yourself insulted or hurt.
Suffer all wrong and do not repay with evil for
you are all the children Of one father.
Never breakthe peace in the name Of patriotism.
The Grenada sentinel. [volume] (Grenada, Miss.) 1868-1955, 1908-11-28

He is now so years old and while in gold health
at the time of this writing, his passing is but a
matter of a few months or years. There are two
sides to this great man. One is Leo TOlstOi, the
artist, and the other-Leo Tolstoi, the man. AS
the artist he has written fearless works and the
person or clique which has fallen under the scath-
ing attack of his pen has seldom been known to
boast of it.
There is no disputing his rank as the best known
OF living authors. Also he is the most generally
read and recognized. He has attained the highest
pinnacle of fame in the literary field and it can
not be said that he craved fame, either.
Best of all, Tolstoi is a friend of all Americans.
The traveller from the United States, visiting Rus
STA, is as welcome at the YaSnaya POlyana estate Of
Russias great man, as if he were in his own home.
America likes Tolstoi, too, for the author is the
most democratic of men.
1t is told of him that he spurns all worldly luxu-
ries, even going so far as to have two tables set
within his home at each meal-one resplendent
with fancy edibles, while the other is stocked
with simple food of the peasantry. Friends of his
daughters and sons are always welcomed at the
more prosperous looking board, while in the same
room, Tolstoi, seated alongside of his wife, par
takes of the necessities of life as an ordinary pie
beian would. However, his children, having been
brought up to the luxuries of life, are allowed to
crafty their every whim, and he never allows his
beliefs to step between them and happiness. In
that respect he is an ideal father and he has been
praised the world over for his broad-minded man
ner of treating others who do not believe as he
does.
He is also what Americans call a mixer" but
in an entirely different sense. He meets the poor
of Russia on their own level, and, except for the
fact that he often s~catters money at their feet,
one would never suspect his wealth.. There are
no strings attached to Tolstoi's gifts, and thousands
of benefcences to Russians in general, while the
benefactors name is a secret, are popularity laid
at the door of this great man.
To be a friend Of the Russian peasant up to a
few years ago meant to be an enemy of the gov
eminent. Upon several occasions Tolstois outcry
against oppression of the cars subjects has placed
him behind the grimy walls of Slav dungeons, but
he always returned to continue the work which ne
has so ably accomplished.
He is a social reformer Of the first water and
many of the acts of justice which the Russian gov
eminent of late years has accomplished can be
traced back to the work Of Tolstoi.
AS a literary artist the count is dead. His de-
mise was a literary suicide. and it occurred 80
