RULERS OF THE WORLD

"Surendra Bikram Shamsher Jans,
most excellent Mahajara" is the brief
but respectful greeting accorded to
the ruler of Nepal by his subjects.
This ruler possesses the longest name
and title of any of the worlds sover-
eigns.
OF the remainder of the worlds
sixty-two rulers, twenty-six are called
presidents, and govern supposedly
free peoples. There are twelve kings,
but the Netherlands is the only ma
ton ruled by queen. Seven emper.
ors are counted among the sovereigns
Of the world, and four sultans reign
in luxurious and licentious palaces in
Morocco, Oman, Zanzibar and Turkey.
Afghanistan and Bokhara are ruled by
ameers, and contrary to the common
belief there is but one nation under
the rule of czar, Bulgaria.
Egypt is governed by khedive.
Japan is known as the land of the mi
kado, and there is the Khan of Khiva.
Only one national state is governed By
a grand duke, and that is Luxembourg
on the continent of Europe. The semi
civilized inhabitants of the Congo Free
State call their ruler sovereign. He
is King Albert the First, of Belgium.
The Shah of Persia and the Bey of
Tunis are two rulers of peculiar
names.

A DAY OF TRAINING

Each day the benefits to be derived
from university training become more
apparent. A recent example OF this
was shown at the State Fair, where
all of the prizes awarded in the live
stock judging contest were won by
college men. The contest was open
to every man in Missouri less than
25 years old, and yet each of the
prizes was awarded to either present
or a former student in the College II
Agriculture.
This is a day OF training in every
thing. There is even one School of
Aatrimony in this country. The tramp
journalist is a thing Of the past and
the unframed farmer is becoming so. In
the profession of teaching more train
ing is required now than formerly.
The type represented by Ichabod
Crane, whose birch rod was his chief
equipment as pedagogue, disap-
peared long ago. The teacher 10
whom positions in the public schools
of today are open must had previous
training in giving instruction, as is
provided in the state normals and
other schools of education.
In this age, when machines do much
Of the physical labor performed by
men, the trained intellect has become
q more important factor than ever be.

OCTOBER-A RHAPSODY

1t is usually conceded that writer
should have a knowledge of what he
writes. In writing a rhapsody on Oc-
tober. for instance, he should know the
meaning of both rhapsody and Oc-
teber. Rhapsody, according to one
definition, Is disconnected series of
wild statements. AS for October, per-
haps In no way can so broad a de.
ssription OF the month be given and at
the same time 30 nearly the require
msnts Of rhapsody be fulfilled as by
setting out the ideas entertained by
different types OF pereons about the
month.
Everyone has heard the story of
the blind men who went to see the
elephant. One grabbed the trunk and
Immediately decided that it resem-
ksd q snake. Another upon e1am-
lining the ear contested that the ele-
phant was like a fan while a third
feeling the broad side of the animal
argued that an elephant resembled
nothing quite SO nearly as a wall. Oc-
tober is like the elephant in that ones
opinion Of it depends on the part Of
which he is conscious.
The small boy would doubtless in
form you that October was the month
that opened the pumpkin-pie season.
The merchant probably would look Up
from his books long enough to say
that October was the best month in
the year, and then forget you while
he ordered another line of fall suits.
A student might remark that If there
was no such thing as study, October
would be the grandest month of the
school year, but that study did SO
break into football games and par.
ties. Doubtless If enough persons
were interviewed, one might even be
found who would define October as
the tenth month in the year.
Those who prefer to gain their
knowledge from books can find a def
milton of October by reading poetry.
Bryant, for instance, begins a poem
on the subject in this manner:
Ay. thou art welcome, heavens delic.
ious breath!
When woods begin to near the Grim.

amount, to bear interest at rate not
exceeding three per cent year, pay
able in thirty years from date Of is
suance, but redeemable after ten
years, for the purpose of erecting and
equipping a new state capitol at the
present seat of government. Said
general assembly shall provide, by ap-
propriate legislation, for the erection
of said new state capitol and for car
rying this amendment into effect.
Sec. 2. The general assembly, at
each regular session thereof, after the
adoption of this amendment, shall ap-
propriate sum out of the general rev.
enue of the state sufficient to pay the
accruing interest on said bonds, and it
may also appropriate such sum as it
shall deem advisable to create a sink
ing fund for the redemeption or pay
ment of said bonds.
For two reasons alone, every fair
minded person must concede that
Missouri needs new S5,OOO,O0O cap
| itol.
The old building long since ceased to
be suitable home for the govern
ment of such a commonwealth. 1t
was built at a cost of $350,O00, sew
enty years ago. At that time the
states population was 3S3,7O2. 1t
is now we'll about 100000. Remod-
cling and improvements have brought
the cost up to $605,0O0, but this is not
in any degree commensurate with the
wealth, population and rank of the
state. In it are stored public papers
and records invaluable to the state,
yet the building is not even fireproof.
A second and equally vital reason
for the adoption of the amendment
is that state pride calls for it. An
excellent way to read the character
of state is to take look at its pub
lie buildings. The enterprising state
of Minnesota, whose resources and
wealth we scorned even to compare
with ours when she tried to take
away the president of our University,
has had for years S5,000,0O0 capitol
of which every Minnesotan is proud
and which has caused favorable COM
ment from ocean to ocean. Pennsyl-
vania's capitol, in spite of the unfor-
|tunate speculation in connection with
its building, is monument to the
civic pride of her citizens.
Our capitol is hardly so beautiful
a building as it was formerly. Re
modelling has changed the style of it's
architecture. The old building was
classical in design; as it now stands,
it is composite. Even had the present
capitol been built within the last
twenty years, and though it is fairly
imposing structure, every voter who
takes pride in his state should, on No
vember 8, vote to place at Jefferson
City a capitol in keeping with the
rank of the state for whose govern
ment it will be home for decades to
come.

son leaf,
And suns grow meek, and meek suns
grow brief,
And the year smiles as it draws near
its death.
Poe and Bryant evidently did not
grasp the same part Of the month, or
the former would not have written
this:
The skies they were ashen and sober;
The leaves they were crisped and
sere,-
The leaves they were whitening and
sere,-
1t was night in the lonesome October.
And so, with the various ideas con-
cerning the month, it would not be
worth while for the individual to give
his personal opinions. What he might
describe as that delicious haziness
of atmosphere" would probably be
called by the owner of forest lands
a sure sign of forest fires. Besides
it is not necessary to express ones
self in order to set forth a "discon-
nected series of wild statements"

The "U. D." Club.

To the Editor Of the University AIissourian:
With breakfast bacon at thirty-five
cents pound and other food products
soaring, five hundred men at the Uni
versity of Missouri continue to live
well on two dollars and twenty-five
cents & week for table board. 1t is
good board, too. 1t is we'll cooked and
served and the linen is changed as
often as in the best hotels. OF course
the men don't have fried chicken ev-
cry day and the steaks are not the
fancy cuts. but they do get an abund-
ance of well prepared and wholesome
food served amidst pleasant surround
ings.
1t may not be generally known, but
the University of Missouri can boast
Of one of the most successful board
ing clubs to be found in connection
with any American University. This
club which boards men at so low a
cost is doing more than any one thing
about the University to make it pos
sible for so large a number of self
supporting men to attend school. The
club is more than a place where men
get enough to eat. 1t is a great So
cial organization directed by the STU
dents. 1t is democratic to the ey-
treme, and during the year takes the
bumps off a lot of men. There are
men who can afford to pay a higher
price for their board who prefer the
~. D." club because of its life and
it's spirit. The capacity of the club
has been enlarged and there are now
accommodations for nearly seven hun
dred men. This feature of the Uni
versity IS a great credit to the insti.
tuition and to all who contribute to
its success.
The greatest need of the IIn,versitv
now is an equally successful dining

A certain western university is put
ting the football men on their honor
in the matter of training. A mans
honor, if it is worth anything, will
stand any strain to which it is put, yet
the students in the university should
realize that man is on his honor to
abstain from many of the common
activities Of life. 1t is hard to break
away from these, and for this reason
those who take part in football should
be helped by those who do not have to
denly themselves.

The Seventh Column

The cackling of geese had saved
Rome.
Gee, | wonder what would have
happened to US if we had tried to at
tack Westmount in Columbia" said
one of the invading generals. "Those
dogs there would have aroused the
whole country"
And he thanked his fortune that he
lived in the goose and not dog neigh
borhood.
The shades of night were falling fas1,
When towards Columbia's West
mount past,
A prof who held with haggard mien,
A pistol with deadly CLEAN.
"Fll get a dog quoth he in wrath,
IF one should hap to cross my path.
l can't sleep at night nor day,
Because those CANNES all do bay"
First he met a big brown cur,
That savagely growled and raised
his fur,
the prof did shoot with unsteady aim,
But the dog he didn't even MAIN.
Bum shot," did laugh the big brown
dog.
And scampered away behind log.
The professor wildly tore his hair,
And plodded on in deep despair.
Next came a little spotted feist,
That the prof on his foot did try to
heist.
But the little thing jumped clear
away,
And the professor squared" as for
fray.
But this dog was like ghost,
And faded away behind post.
And the prof now almost dead,
Sneaked on home and went to bed.
From pure exhaustion he fell asleep,
And dreamed a dream of hill so
steep,
That all the dogs did roll down it
And expired in a bottomless pit.
He heard their frenzied,' agonized yell,
And smiled and smiled while in the
spell.
But when he awoke with sudden
start,
He knew the dream was a ghastly
farce.
He was last seen the other day.
His eyes were sunk, his hair was
gray.
Every time he heard a dog yell,
He murmured 81 wish 1 were in
Hades."

cense and suggests re-reading of Mr.
Sherman)

THETIS DESERTERS
ARE CAPTURED

Robert Mckinney and J. S. Kra'
mer, the two deserters who were
captured on the steamer Wilhelmina
some weeks ago just as they thought
they were of to the Coast, have
again gotten into trouble, and after
escaping from the Thetis, to which
they had been returned, were arrest
ed by the police at Punchbowl, where
they had hidden.
The men were missed from the
Thetis when the guard went to lock
them up, and from that time till yes
terday were not seen again. The
fact that the two men had irons on,
and in some way got rid of them,
rather points to someone on the ves-
sci assisting in the escape.
The two youngsters are once more
on board the Thetis, but they are
reported as having threatened to es-
cape again at the first opportunity.
