Of Maurice Maeterlinck, was on tour
in French town, where the local COM

But the support was weak and halt

Nine. Leblanc sought out her man.

"a writer like Maeterlinck should be
treated with more respect"
Madame" he answered. M. Maeter-

SCIENCE has at last discovered why the
turkey is so scarce that its price has be-
come prohibitive for many Tbanksgiv-
Ing table-the big bird is being literally
wiped out in New England by sppendi-
ctis. More than this, the disease has
spread as far south as Virginia and is al
ready invading Michigan, which up to
the present time has for years been the
chief breeding place for turkeys. So SER
ious is the danger ofs virtual extinction
of the national Bird" that a thorough in
vestigation of the cause of the disease and
its possible prevention is being made by
such well known scientists as DR.. Theo-
bald Smith, and DR.. +. E. Tyzzer, of the
Harvard medical school, and by Mr..
Philip B. Hadley, OF the state experiment

In Pittsburg laborer was killed by an
injury to his back. His obituary required
six lines. He was killed while working,
endeavoring to support his family and
himself He was not hero, just plain
laborng man. But had he met death
while playing in the line ofs university
football team, columns would have been
required to relate his greatness. The
American estimate of what constitutes
manhood is strangely perverted in these
later days. The real greatness ofthe land
is in the homes where men work, where
children are brought up to be honest aud
God-fearing. The death of the head of
such household is a tragedy. But it
does not appeal to the general public like
the cracked skull or broken back of a
gridiron warrior.-Titusville Herald.

Rev. BILLY SUNDAY has the faculty of
drawing big audiences and of keeping
them interested and peaceable even when
bombarding them with epithets. A sim
liar gift marked the career of the late
Rev. Sam Jones, who, while capable of
finished eloquence, perierred to use the
homliest and most forcible elements of
the language. Mr.. Sundays vocabulary
is in its shirt sleeves and he is ready for
any sort Of rough and tumble with
sinners. If Rev. Billy were to appear in
elegant conventional costume the crowds
that witness his picturesquenes would
laugh at him, not with him. He has had
long experience in converting thous-
ands and begins the tackle by taking of
his coat, assuming that if the clergy will
not hold it, so much the worse for them.

Washington, Nov. 23.-It was made
known in an authoritative quarter that
General James S. Clarkson, surveyor
of the port of New York, would re-

explanation was given that this ar

Emphasis was laid on the fact that it
had been understood by the admins

Clarkson would retire and there was
not the remotest connection between
his contemplated resignation of his
commission and the customs frauds,
which had not been discovered except
as to the underweighing of sugar un.

General Clarkson would give up the
surveyorship.

Custody Of Her Two Children.

A rather pretty little story concern.
ing the adoption by Senator and Mrs.
Sherman of Mrs. McCallum has been
current in Washington for many years.
As the story goes, the Senator and
Mrs. Sherman were strolling through
an orphanage one day and they were
especially attracted to a strikingly
beautiful girl child. They had no
children Of their own and made known
their desire 10 adopt her. They were
informed that the baby had twin
sister and whoever adopted one would
have to take the other. The Sher.
mans took both and the twin first
chosen died soon afterwards. The
other the present Mrs. McCallum,
was reared by the Shermans. When
Senator Sherman died he made her
practically his sole heiress.

Thoughts OF Thanksgiving.
Written by a Soldier.l

Written by Soldier.l
The rain is gently falling
And the skies are laden gray,
The wind nourns through the bamboo
In dreary mournful way,
Our quarters damp and gloomy
Present an uninviting scene,
And Thanksgiving is approaching
In the far-otf Philippines.
That name, somehow familiar,
We have all heard II before.
But have lost all interest in It
Since the happy days Of yore.
For instead of pie and turkey
We will have hardtsck and beans,
And be thankful we are living,
In the far.off Philippines.
And our memory turns backward
To one Thanksgiving day
Spent with our friends and parents,
In the old home far away.
There we had cranberries
And turkey roast to at"
Mince pie, cake, tarts and jam,
And everything was free.
And best of all, my sweetheart,
In whom l took such pride,
That little blue-eyed maiden
Was seated by nv side.
And we drove out in the country
IN tne moon-iit winter SCENES
The memory of ii almost
Makes me hate these Philippines.
For today in the old homestead,
So many miles away,
There will be the same old gathering
AS there was that other dsy.
The banquet will be Just as good,
The same old friends be there;
