ton of a Naval officer.
From the Baltimore Sun.
To intimate that such a resignation
! savors in any way Of "disloyalty to his
country" or Of treason, is a preposterous
| abuse Of language and a distortion OF
facts. Il was rather the act Of man
who was willing to surrender his own
personal advantage and a large income
and incur the displeasure Of the President
for what ne esteemed the good of the
service. It was, and will be so considered
by the country, the act of an unselfish
and loyal official. who prefers what he
believes 10 be the good of the service to
his own ease and prosperity.

STAGE WIT AND HUMOR

During William Archer's American
visit young actress at dinner cor
graduated the noted dramatic critic on
the answering fairness of his re-
views. "And it is hard, 1t is even
cruel, sometimes, isn't it, to be fair?"
she said YES" said Mr. Archer, smil-
irg, ito be fair is sometimes hard and
cruel and sometimes it is rash. The
answering fair critic often takes ur
his pen with the shrug of Omar, the
cid Persian poet. You have heard of
Omars shrug? No? Well. 1t was elo-
quent. The shah one day sent for the
cid poet. omar said he, I have writ
ten some verses. Listen and / will
read them to YOU And he read the
verses and in the ensuing silence looked
at Omar anxiously. 'Well?' he said.

shook his head. Heaven born said he,
such verses would disgrace a nine
year-old schoolboy.' His eyes flashing
with rage the shah shouted to his

fool and let him 4be soundly fiogged.
Yet the shah, for all, respected Omar's
judgment and week later he sent for

Children Of other Lands Take Part in
Amusements Which Cause the
Americans to Stare In
Amusement

Down in that cosmopolitan neighbour
hood surrounding the Bethlehem insti-
tute, where the heroic Dana Bartlett
puts lance in rest against want and
misery, are seen the diversions and
games of many foreign races.
Old and young alike have their
games there.
Yes" said the Rev. DR.. Bartlett
yesterday; these people who have SO
many trials and so much want find re-
Taxation and solace in the games of
their native countries. Thus they for
get their troubles for s. time, while
watching some mental diversion or
while engaged In physical contest of
more robust characteristics"
Perhaps the most logical ones to
mention first in connection with the
games are the children. The little peo-
pie, who are ever fond of amusements,
are the same the world over in that
respect, only their games differ ac-
cording to countries. And in such q
neighborhood as that wherein the
Bethlehem institute is situated the con-
trasts are easily noted.

They call one of these games FL

Another game the Mexican boys Of
my class here enjoy playing is called
The Wolf I've forgotten the Spanish
name for that; but anyway, 1t Is played
in this fashion. One boy stands in the
