II is also very little known what sac
rifices Mr.. George j. Gould had to
make to secure the assistance AMI
friendship OF the powers that have
fought him in the past. One thing is,
however, sure, and that is that the
Goulds. will no longer be the whole
things In the management of their rail
roads A great deal of financing will
have to be done TO rejuvenate the Mis-
souri, Pacific and its allied lines, as
most parts Of them neeJ rebuilding.
IL may turn out that In each OF the
Gould roads new interests will enter,
but all friendly to E. H. Hartman.
The Wabash may be the part OF the
Gould system E. H Hartman covets
most, while the Denver & Rio Grande
may be sought by the Chicago C
Northwestern, to which the recent
large buying Of the stock Is attributed.
The common stock OF the Denver &
Rio Grande is, from the point OF in
trinsic value, hardly worth SIS share.

comparatively small cost The West

Mr.. Hartman has picked up Senator
Clark's line from Salt Lake City to
Los Angeles, and may want to see the
Western Pacific under the control Of
railroad company in which he is an
influential factor. The Western Mary
land, the Wabash-Pittsburg Terminal
and the Wheeling & Lake Erie may be-
come part Of an eastern system in
which Mr.. Hartman is interested,
The Erie may have a voice in these
railroads. Mr.. Hartman has become
the dominant force in the Gould lines,
and his plans in connection with them
will be executed, and no others. This
is the prevailing impression, and ii
gains weight from the strong tone
shown by all the Gould stocks.

BIOLOGICAL ASPECT OF WAR

The San Francisco Chronicle says:
In one of those addresses before
Socialists of Equality Hall. with which
DR.. David Starr Jordan varies the rou-
tine of life at Palo Alto. the president
of Stanford drew picture the other
evening OF what the world might be
without war AS men who die for their
country gre likely, he said, to be of a
greater physical and mental worth than
those who stay at home. the loss to
the nation is greater than the mere
numbers of the death roll Besides
this fact Of the cutting off at the prime
OF life of many of the best citizens,
there Is also to be considered the loss
of the unborn children who might have
inherited their traits. Much of the
graft, the wtckedness and the power
ty of the world, DR.. Jordan believes
bears a definite relation to the human
destruction which is thus caused by
wars.
1t would be discouraging to accept
too freely the generalization which DR.
Jordan makes, for there is little hope
that wars are soon to cease. 1t is
undoubtedly true that armies in war
time draw to them much of the flower
of the nations manhood, but except In
special instances, such as the long
continued Napoleonic wars, the ratio
of mortality is not such as to prove
alarming. DR.. Jordan's statement that
the decadence OF the Roman empire
was due to the loss OF its best man
hood in the long series OF wars in
which Rome engaged may be support
ed, by the contention that the lux
ury of later Rome, the immediate
cause of its rall was directly due to
this deterioration Of the stock The ar
gument, however, is not convincing.
A winter at Capua, when not javelin
was hurled, was sufficient to demoral-
lie the magnificent army Of Hanni
bal
1t may be freely admitted that wars
bring In their train long line of evils.
Apart from the human misery of the
battlefield and the waste Of life, there
Is also the dissipation of wealth. Fre-
quently wars are unjustified and un-
necessary, wanton aggressions by au-
tocratic rulers consumed with self
ish ambition. or by nations covetous
to the possessions OF a weaker power.
Yet some fall into a different cate
CORY. Our own War Of the Revolution
was justified-on our side at least,
Our Civil War was an inevitable con-
flict. and on both sides men were sin
cere in their conviction Of right.
Wars of the latter class result in no
deterioration of the human stock. The
loss of life is deplorable, but the stim-
ulus which is given to the emotions
by the strengthening of the sentiment
of patriotism renews a countrys man
hood 1t has been noted that the per-
iods of greatest advancement in the
peaceful arts in many nations have
followed great wars, which had, stirred
the people to their depths.

NAD!R'S BODY DANGLEO FROM A
BRIDGE.

The execution of Nadir Pasha and
the exposing of his body on the
Galata bridge to the view of thous-
ands is the old way on treating a con-
quered foe and OF impressing the null
titude with tn. penalty of disloyalty.
Nadir Pasha was the most feared
man in Turkey while Abdul Hamid
remained in power. He had been a
slave, but under the peculiar customs
of Turkey, which know no class dis

controlling power In the affairs of the

BARRIE AND FEMALE MENACE.

In the course of browsing around g
secondhand bookstore the other day a
st. Louis Globe-Democrat man picked
up a little volume in faded board covers
bearing the following elaborate title:
1.-THE American Ladies' and Gentle
mems Manual of Elegance, Fashion and
True Politeness." The author was-or
is, for he possibly may still be living
Charles William Day, and the book
was published in Auburn, N. Y. in 1850.
According to its preface the work was
first published in London in 1886 and,
after running through some 20 editions,
was revised to meet the requirements
of the American public, among whom
the author believes, there is to be
found a society as well bred, graceful
and polished, as can be met with in
Europe" Sly author! IF these hints"
he concludes. save the blush upon one
cheek. or smooth the path into Society
of only one honest family, the object
of the author will be attained"
To those who are prone to be vain
of their high-bred ancestry the book
may be something of a shock. 1t I'M

in Il chapter on dinners" solelnnly in

many people make a disgusting noise
with their lips by inhaling their breath
strongly whilst taking soup-a habit
which should be carefully avoided" Or,
t:at after having cleansed the lips and
fingers from the finger BOWL they should
not practice the filthy custom of
gargl1ng the mouth at table, albeit the
usage prevails amongst a few, who
think that, because it is a foreign habit, |
it cannot be disgusting"
Never admonishes Mr.. Day, in all
the dignity of capital letters, Never

that table napkins are not considered
