This resolution was not adopted and

Edward s. Barrill was brought to

JUST A MATTER OF INQUIRY.
Why Should People Entertain or Be
Entertained When 1t Gives
Them No Pleasure?

In a periodical the other day" says
the amateur philosopher of the Provi-
dence Tribune, 4 ran across a picture
of what had evidently been musical
entertainment or musicale took it
to have been a musicale for choice.
1.-The fiddlers had gone and so had
the soloist or solOists and guests.
There remained in the foreground the
deserted room and waste of empty
chairs, along with the open grand
piano.
The hosts head was resting on his
arms on a table; the hostess had re-
moved her shoes and was on the verge
of collapse. In the background a but
Ter was locking on commiseratingly.
Now, there's a good deal of that
sort of thing first and last the country
over. 1t was true to life, but never
could understand it. That is. nobody
has ever explained to me why people
who don't enjoy entertaining or being
entertained persist in making martyrs
of themselves; why anybody does
something for pleasure that invari-
ably gives pain?

persecution of which he had rid him

that Margaret had not seemed in

him in his most dangerous moods as
well as in his best moments. would
have thought a similar comparison
with an elemental force quite as truly
descriptive of him, if it had occurred
to her The enterprising Greek had
really attempted to carry her off by
force on the night of the final re-
hearsal before her first appearance on
the stage, and had only been thwarted
because a royal rival had caused him
to be locked up, as if by mistake, IN
order TO carry her off himself: in
which he also had failed most ridicu-
lousy, thanks to the young singers
friend, the celebrated Nine. BOnanni
That was a very amusing story. But
on another occasion Margaret had
found herself shut up with her orr
entail adorer in a room from which
she could not escape, and he had quite
lost his head; and if she had not been
the woman she was, she would have

more like an ordinary human being

Review of Reviews.

The October Review of Reviews
comes out with a group of striking ar
ticles on the discovery of the North
Pole. Besides the CHARACTER sketch Of
Commander Peary, which, while un-
signed, is understood to have been
written by one who has long enjoyed
close acquaintance with the explorer
and an intimate knowledge of his
work, there is popular scientific ar
ticle on the discovery and its signifi-
canoe by Cyrus c. Adams, the ge-
ographer, and these are followed by an
extended interview with DR.. Cook re-
ported by w. T. Stead from Copen-
hagen. These three articles were
written exclusively for the Review OF
Reviews during the month of Septem-
Der after the world had been thrilled
by the news flashed from the Shet-
land Islands and from the distant COAST
of Labrador. The securing and pub
LEGATION of these articles within so
short a time is a feat unparalleled in

l1irtv miles an hour is too fast No
who will willfully disregard the rights
and safety of the public by maintain
ing any such speed as that. The diff
ficulty has not been with those who
kept to the margin between the legal
rate of speed and a few miles in ex-
cess. but with those reckless drivers
who make the streets a constant men,
ace by unlawful bursts of speed.
Walla Walla has every reason to be
satisfied with the spirit displayed by
the great majority of the motorists
here Ample latitude has been given,
and this latitude has been abused in
only a comparatively small number
of cases. A fine of $40 is really too
small for a motorist who deliberate
ly speeds through the streets at d rate
of twenty five or thirty miles an hour
Such a selfish disregard of the rights
enforcement of the ordinances against
such practices This city is not a coun-
try village where the streets may be
turned into race courses without en-
dangering the lives of the inhabitants.
The beautiful biulevards Of the city
are the property of the people. out
those who live along them and who
cross them are entitled to protection.
Public sentiment will sustain any fair
efforts to keep the speed maniacs in
check
