1t was with regret that the fans
heard that Napoleon Lajoie had re-
signed as manager of the Clevelands. 1t
was against the wishes of the man
agement of that club that the great
first baseman handed the reins over tc
another. But there is consolation in
the fact that Lajoie will still retain his
old. position with the Maps. Lajoie
simply got tired of being figurehead.
He was manager in name only, and al
though powerless to increase the eff
cheney of his team, having to take any
material handed to him by the manage
ment and with the sporting writer's OF
his home town and surrounding venting
their chagrin at the poor showing the
team was making, on Lajoie's devoted
head. it is no wonder that the popular
player insisted that his resignation be
accepted.

Mike says that he will be in the
game again next season and if Nc
Graw can be induced to release Donlin
for reasonable amount it is not un-
likely that the heavy hitting Mike will
be seen in the uniform of Dodger
next year. 1t is known that Charles
Ebbitts, president of the Brooklyn club
is willing to pay goodly sum to OBJ
tain Donlin for what he is striving
hard to make pennant- winning team

succeed Lumley. Mike would be a val
liable addition to the Dodgers, both as

attendance standpoint.

Public Rights i'm Private Property.

The supreme cout of Maine has
orally accepted, is destined to play Il
large part in the future of the country.
1t involves the cutting of timber on
private land and the court has held
that the undiSputed owner of the
property does not have the right to
denude it of timber and leave the
watershed bare. Such policy. an
nounced and enforced so years ago.
the Twentieth Century Farmer says,
would have been the solution of some
of the most vital problems of the pres
ent day, but it evidently required the
object lesson of necessity to illumine
the judicial mind and create a senti.
ment to uphold such a declaration.
THE decision, it is true, only ex-
tends the application of long recog-
nized principles of law which found
their first voice in the right of emf
nent domain and are the outgrowth #
the universally recognized fact that Us
population becomes more dense and
clVlllZatlon develops the social fabric
becomes more complex and free action
of the individual is necessarily cir
cumScribed.
Personal pleasure or profit is no
longer supreme, but must yield at the
point where it conflicts with the well
fare of the mass.
The universal application of the
principle that the owner must care for
and preserve within reasonable bounds
the natural resources entrusted to his
care would be a broad and certain
foundation for permanent greatness
and prosperity and would pay in good
measure the debt which the present
owes to the future, instead of over
drawing the account, as has been the
policy of the past

THE ELBE RIVER.
How the Stream Was Brought to an
Even Slope and Current.

In the beginning the Elbe, like any
spreading out among multitude of is
lands, now narrowing into short and
crooked turn. now widening over a
shoal. AS Il proper beginning for the
correction of this sort of thing the
Prussians, in true German style, pre-
pared map of the stream as 1t was,
decided by simple mathematical cal
culation how wide channel 1.50 me-
ters deep at middle water could be
with the existing flow and then upon
the map in red ink, eliminating all
sharp. turns, drew in graceful curves
and long straight reaches regardless OF
the existing banks two nearly parallel
lines. indicating the banks as they
were intended to be.
The engineers began at the head OF
the stream and built out from the old
shore to the location of the red line
transverse dikes, ground sills-ordi-
nary contraction works. Sometimes
where they seemed to be needed they
built long parallel dikes exactly on the
new red line. Sometimes they wove
hurdles and revetment mattresses of
willow brush, much as we do at home.
and sunk them on bars between the
tips of the transverse dikes, and then
on the top of them set up upright
sticks and wove waffle" or basket
fences of willow through them to make
pens, and into these piled sand dredg-
ed from the stream. to build up the
shore. Mile by mile they advanced,
dredging the river or letting it dredge
itself. leaving no ends loose to ravel
out. gradually reducing the river to an
even slope and current.-Boston Tran

His Dinner Guests.

In a volume published in London,
'Piccadilly to Pail Mall" there is this
queer auecdote of the vagares of So
cial life in the capital: Some years ago
an eminent parsonage accepted or suS-
gested Il dinner with Il certain million
aire, at that time comparatively un-
known. The first guest to arrive. hav-
ing explained to the butler that. being
unacquainted with his host, he would
wait till some one else came who could
introduce him, fingered in the hail.
The second was in the same prcdica-
ment, as were the third. fourth, fifth
and other guests up to the ninth, who
chanced to be the eminent parsonage"
himself. Upon the dilemma being ex-
planned to him he cheerfully said: "Oh,
come along with me. l will introduce
you all. l know him.

Their Fortunate Escape.

They had walked halfway through

sank on SHADED bench. He seated
himself beside her They were entirely
alone save for an old man at one end
of their seat immersed in Il book Their

strive to think of it no more or it may
grow to prey upon our minds"
Pardon me-" said the old man or
the end of the bench. his watery eyes
distended in lively apprehension. "Ha:
there been some awful disaster? Have
you been forced to look upon some aw
full tragedy"

youth answered.:

The Perpetual Press.

An inland metropolis is promised the
last word in modern journalism -
namely, a genuine all-day-and -all-night
newspaper.
At present, says the Saturday Even
ing Post, even the most enterprising
metropolitan journals do not, as a rule,
issue extras between lis and 4:3O
a. m. This unfortunate hiatus is due
to the fact that, between these, hours,
modern newspaper are employed in
printing the regular edition-that is,
the regular morning edition, which
goes to press at about / a. m; the ex-
| ira 9 o'clock edition, which goes to
press at 1:45; the regular special ex-
ira noon edition, which goes to press
lat 2:03; the regular very special dou-
bic extra l o'clock edition, which goes
to press at 3:15, and the regular spe-
cial extra 2 o'clock edition. which goes
to press at 4. The regular 8 and 5
Io'clock editions are printed in day
light.
Only the other night at 1:26 a great
newspaper received a report from its
Trenton correspondent that prom
inent colored citizen of that place had
Just butted goat off the sidewalk. So
burdened were the presses that fairly
superhuman exertion was required to
get out an extra 23 minutes after the
report was received, which was only
three minutes before the Trenton cor.
respondent wired that the colored cit.
iZen turned out to be former con.
vict and there wasn't any goat BY
so narrow margin was the news saved
IThree minutes later and it would have
been lost to the world forever
The all-day-and-all-ni newspaper
as we understand it, will overcome
this mechanical handicap by dischard
ing all regular editions. 1t will con.
Isist entirely of extras, to be issued
punctually one hour apart, unless some
thing important has happened = in
(which case, of course, there will be
no issue at all. Those who understand

aware that periodicity has nothing to

The White Paper Trust.

John Norris, choirman of the paper
committee of the American Newspaper
Publishers association, declares that
the wood pulp trust has been securing
false affidavits from the employees in
Canadian paper mills in order to make
it appear that the wages paid in those
mills are less than those paid by the
trust in the United States. Mr.. Norris
says that his name and that of Senator
Frye of Maine have been used in order
to secure this false information, and
he asks that the whole proceedings be
laid bare. The paper trust, it appears
will stick at nothing. The evidence
which they have laid before congress
in order to secure an increase in the
present tariff is false, misleading, and
was gotten up with the intention to
deceive. 1t only shows on what il
rotten basis our present tariff stands.
And yet Speaker Cannon is defend
ing the wood pulp ring, because, as he
alleges, it discriminates against Amer
ican lumbermen, when the work of
this same ring is a menace to agricul.
ture, is depicting our forests, and has
become colossal scheme of jobbery
villainy and fraud
