OPEN THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY.

Little oaks from acorns grow"
This paper has taken much pride In
the great success which has met the
adoption of its suggestion that the
Yale Art school and the Peabody Mu-
scum buildings be opened to the gen
eral public Sunday afternoons. Last
Sunday the attendance at the art
school was 2,O97 and at the museum it
was 2.041. There seems 10 be a lust
reason for pride. Those in charge at
the two buildings have drawn atten-
ton to the very noticeable fact that
those who come once. come twice or
again and again. Many of the same
faces are seen on succeeding Sundays.
People are so delighted with what
they may see that they come for fur
Their study of the exhibits, bringing
their friends with them. 1t is a very
good sign. Attention might well be
drawn TO the fact that the figures of
the attendance at the two buildings
are almost identical, there being but
f1fty-seven more at one place than at
the other. 1t proves concluslvely that
those who visit one building Sunday
afternoon go and visit the other as
well.

gest the opening of the Historical So

Because Prophet Johnson said that
during the early part of March "the
planets would be in a position similar
to that which they occupied at the
time of the great blizzard of 1883. quite
few people wouldn't have been sur
rrised If night before last the great
blizzard had begun to repeat itself and
kept on repeating itself until it was
all repeated. But 1t appears that "the
planets" can be in the same position
twice without there being two biz
yards, which Is, on the whole, encour-
aging. Yesterday was much more pleas

One does not have to be a follower
of the race-track or a devotee OF the
betting ring to have an honest love
for mans defenceless friend, the
horse. Oftentimes just those men VINO
are most closely connected with horses,
particularly racing horses, seem 10
have the least love of them, as is
shown by the cruel way in which they

of the Sunday sight-seers. and sus-
pecting that it might prove more of
an attraction than either of the other
two institutions. The Historical So
cietys building Is open at present only
on week days Then, as was the case
formerly with the Art school and Pea
body museum, it has very few visit
ors. The public does not have the
time or the inclination to go there.
That the opening of the Grove street
building would be an unqualified sue
cess there can be no doubt. Its ex-
hibits are more vital and more inter-
esting to New Haveners than those
in either of the other two buildings.

the colonies, particularly that of the

Approached with the proposition of
Sunday openings, the society's officers
have seen but one serious objection.
Prof. Williston Walker, who is presi-
dent, has said that he is not AFRAID
that the big crowds that would surely
come would injure or remove any OF
the valuable relics on exhibition. His
one contention was that the society
had not the funds to meet the ex-
penses of Sunday openings. Two sug-
gestions may be made in that case
Either the society might close Its
doors on one or more of the week
days and so save running expenses
enough for a Sunday opening, which
would he far more acceptable from
the public's standpoint, or a specia

that there Is public spirit enough t

When Mr.. Reuterdahl made his point

names. But II Is noticeable that In the

inquiry his criticism has been strongly
supported by competent witnesses
Thus, Lieutenant white said that the

II there is anything wonderful that
wonderful Japan hasn't done let 1t
be announced. She can't surprise the
world any more than she has The
latest is that comparison of ia
pans naval strength with what 1t
was at the time of the war with
Russia is said to show that the To-
kio government has more than twice
the number of battleships il had be-
fore the Russo-Japanese war began,
fifty per cent. more armored cruisers
and nearly three times as many des-
do boats. but this deficiency. II is
understood. is about to be remedied.
The advance in the fighting strength
of the navy is said to be fully ninety
per cent. and the nation has been
building up it's military strength at
the same time.
Peaceful and peaceable. but always
preparing for war. This Is the at
titude of Japan and the other pow
ers. But what a feat Japan has ac-
complished Her resources are not

THE CITY OF NAPLES.

New Haven is the City of Films,
and may there not be a time when II
isn't. Macon. Missouri, is the City of
Naples, and It is so because of the
fact that about forty years ago John
w. Beaumont. an energetic real es-
tate man of Macon couldn't pay
his taxes, which amounted to s116.
But he had ten thousand young ma
pie trees from one to two inches in
diameter. all ready to set out. He
offered to give the city council these
trees in payment of his taxes. The
city was wise enough to take them,
BY public proclamation the mayor
fixed an arbor day, and everybody
who would agree to set them out and
care for them was given from six
to ten trees. At that time the town
was almost bare of trees of every
kind. Almost in day Mr.. Beau
monts tender for taxes was in the
hands of the inhabitants. and they so
faithfully carried out the mayors in
junction that to-day there is hardly a
street in town which is not beauti-
fully shaded by thick leaved trees.
Fortunate Macon What a blessing
in disguise was Mr. Beaumont's ina.
bility to pay his taxes in money In
what way could he have paid them
that would have been half as profit
able to Macon as his payment of
them in trees was?
