MRS. SAGE'S VANISHING MIL
 LIONS.

MRS. SAGES VANISHING MIL
 LIONS.
 A news report says that for the past three years Mrs. Russell Sage has been giving away her fortune at the rate of $25,OOO a day, and that if she keeps up that pace the s65,000,- 900 she received from her husband will all be gone in about five years. But it is not in evidence that Mrs. Sage is worrying any over the pros- pect Her philanthropy thus far has taken very wise and practical forms. If there is any madness in her gen. erosity there is certainly method in it also, and it is probable she will reserve enough for herself to keep her from becoming an object of char ity. It looks very much as if Mrs. Sage is one of those unfortunate per- sons who have more money than they want to be responsible for; but other wise she is fortunate in that she has the disposition and the ability to devote it to worthy purposes.

THE HAWAIIAN JAPANESE.

The translation of the seized docu- their packers remind one of the high flown manifestoes of the Mexican revolutionists who were lately tried at Tombstone. The main difference between them, however, was an es- sential one measured by the differ ence between the normal Japanese and the average Mexican patriot" The first is a menace and the latter a nuisance The first was on the spot ready to strike for the flag of the Rising Sun as well as for higher wages. The latter was safely away from the scene of the proposed rev olution engaged in barking grandilo quently but harmlessly.
 The people of the islands now ap- pear to realize that they were in greater danger of a political cata- clysm than of any physical destruc- tion with which their own Kileaua ever threatened them.
 The disclosure of the plot to secure Japanese control of the islands under the cover of a sugar workers strike is a disappointment. There was nev- CT an apparently more justifiable strike based on a modest demand, politely preferred, that the wages of the workers be increased from 69 cents a day to $L00.
 And now it appears that all this politeness was meant to mask coup d'etat which would surely have further strained the already tense relations between this country and Japan. 4.sLS inHs

Concerning Proposed Robbing of Whiskey of Its Chief Allurement)
Arizona republican., 1909-06-13

All iconoclastic records are sur passed by the New York clergyman who told a Sunday school class that he believed that Samson, if alive to- day, would not be able to whip Jack Johnson. He appears to forget that Johnson's only claim to fame rests on the trouncing he gave a Canadian named Burns. Nobody ever heard of his killing any lions with such a weapon as Samson used, or carrying away the gates of a city.-Rochester Democrat Chronicle.
 Samson never killed any lions with such a weapon as the Democrat Chronicle has in mind. He used it effectively, however, against 5000 sur prised and humiliated Philistines.
