Sp,.inp Surprises.

Spring surprises, seldom more alb
rupt even in England than this year
should at worst keep at bay any fear
of dulness Till the third week of
Nav. when the last of the frost fails
due, we may any morning wake mp
to a day redolent either of summer or
winter.
March came in with heralds of
spring in full robes. LondonerS saw
the chestnut buds bursting in Hyde
Park. the almonds lowering in Bat
tersea and what crocuses the sparrows
SHARED flaming over the green grasses
of all the parks. In the country the
ploughs were busy on fields soaked
with six months rain; the harrows
and the drills followed. In the gar
dens we looked with fearful admira-
ton at the long. green shoots of the
roses. We picked spring bouquets and
put sprigs of purple tipped lilac in
vases. We watched the birds building
and maybe were awaked at five o'clock
in the morning by the fluting black
birds, earliest and loudest of the sing
ers. Perhaps the sight and sound
and scent of spring brought back
many tags of verse to the mind. while
"the unthrift sun shed vital gold. in
thousand pieces" and the mounted
thrush" shouted from the ''tuftod
larch" But spring mad another face
or mask. Snow, hail and loud north
winds took the room of still days ana
hot sun The ploughs returned to the
shed. the birds sought food instead of
nesting material and the trees. with
their marvellous power of arrestinG
growth. waited against better DAYS.
The quick change has. after all. its
compensations. As early spring is
delightful, a late spring is profitable,
and with every year we have greater
skill in responding to the calls of
the climate in small things as in big.
The new French wheats, for example,
can be sown with good hope of sue
cess as late as April and the farmer
defeated by a wet autumn need not
therefore surrender his hopes of eX-
tending his area of wheat, which has
become in the last year or two one
of his most profitable crops. Some of
the fruit-growers, warned even at
night by alarms set going by the Their
mometer as it falls to the freezing
point, can save their fruit bloom by
the new "smudges." Our gardeners
have discovered that leaves watered
before the sun reaches them are saved
from the effect of frost. We may add
that French gardening is proof against
all weather threats but complete sun
lessness, of which there is little fear
in the worst springs.
Perhaps everyone. in living through
an English spring, alternates with the
weather between the divergent views
of the poet who anticipates and the
cynic who is belated. But when all is
said and all allowance made, no coun-
try in the world can give glimpses OF
such vivid days as this England at
the time when the warblers and swal-
lows, launching themselves in their
millions across the North Sea and the
Mediterranean, make for their snug
homes in English hedges and under
English caves.-London Mail.

The construction of the state-aid
road between Seattle and Renton, an
important link in the contemplated
highway from this city to Spokane,
is not to be delayed,as was feared.
Interested property owners have guar
anteed the payment of the amounts
which may be necessary to eXpend
to condemn the property of those who
have opposed the construction of the
road, because it would take a por-
ton of their lands.
Unless construction is begun this
summer, the state appropriation will
lapse, which is the reason why the
action of the interested parties is par
ticularly timely. Bids are to be called
for, and the road is to be constructed
this summer.
When transcontinental races We're
had last year, it was the uniform tes-
timony of those who participated and
who lasted to the end, that the worst
portion of the road which they had
occasion to pass over, from the Allan
tic to the Pacific seaboard, was that
from the eastern slope of the Cascade
mountains into Seattle. Yet this is
the Oldest highway in the state. 1t
is a portion of this highway which is
to be reconstructed during the com
ing summer, according to the arrange
ments just completed. 1t will form
a portion of the Snoqualmie pass road
across the mountains, the contemplate
ed main highway from the eastern to
the western border of the state, and
thus a portion of the greater high
way, which, in time, is to extend from
the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean, by
the northern route, following. as near
as possible, the old emigrant road by
which the first settlers reached this
coast, prior to the discovery of gold
in California
Really, this is the most important
good road project under contempla-
ton for the present year. and it is a
good thing that arrangements have
been made through which its con-
struction is assured.-Seattle p l.

TIME RIPE FOR REBELLION.

Daisy Gibson may not be well
known to fame or she may be-this
lis not written by the dramatic critic.
But Daisy Gibson is a good name
for an organization which might do
more than any other to purify and up
life the stage-The Daisy Gibson lea
que.
She is probably not the brightest of
stars, or she would not have hired
out to play a role in Lid Lifters' Bur
1esque company" on the eve of q
one-night performance at Hammond,
Ind. She is probably a poor girl, viii"
ling to do almost anything as an act
ress, or she would not have Joined q
cheap troupe with name like that.
But the costume was indecent. the
lines were indecent. and the stage
action was indecent-or, at least, so
thought Daisy Gibson. She rebelled.
She needed the work, and she needed
the pay. but she could not go on
with piece addressed to the basest
instincts of the basest men. She re-
fused to go on. and was discharged
and told that her wages would be
withheld as damages.
1t is no part of this story to dwell
on the fact that she retalated by hav-
ing the manager of the company ar
rested and fined for drunkenness and
disorderly conduct. The point here
raised is that there is a crying need
of q Daisy Gibson league of actresses,
pledged to refuse the indecent and
suggestive parts. Here is labor
union which even the National Manu-
facturers' association would favor
a union formed for the purpose of
preserving the womanhood of women
on the stage, the innocence of women
in the audience, and the self-respeCt
of men and women alike, before and
behind the footlights
Whatever may be the present state
of the drama as compared with that
of the time of Charles the Second,
there is no doubt that its suggestive
ness and indecency are growing day
by dav now The Black Crook
startled the nation a quarter of cen
fury ago. More risque representa-
tons create no comment anywhere
now
The Oriental dances that stained the
Midway Plaisance at the Worlds
Fair in 1898 did much to debauch
the tastes Of theatre-going people of
the nation and the standards of the
theatrical profession. They established
new standards of indecency. Things
intolerable before became mild BY
comparison, and things heretofore
questionable seemed almost clean.
The audiences seem inert and sit
through bestial displays without doing
themselves the credit of walking out
We have no legal censorship. and hepe
none will ever be necessary.
The matter of reform seems to be
in the hands of the self-respecting
actors and actresses of the land.
1t must be that thousands of them
blush when they calmly contemplate
the gestures, the situations, and the
lines of the corrupt plays of the day
1t cannot be that many of them are
SO depraved as to like these things
Then let them rebel. The time rs
ripe for it. Such rebellion would be
a great thing for the stage. 1t would
be the answer of the decent people OF
the profession to the old slurs on
their morals
Let the Daisy Gibson league he or
ganized and let all decent people on
the stage joint it.

Press Opinions
Usual Methods of Defense.

At last the unconfessed grafters of
Pittsburg are setting up a defense.
To The plain people of the backwoods
such proceeding can mean only one
thing-the presentation of evidence
tending to show that the accused mea
are not guilty. Otherwise, think the
simple folk, the cornered rascals
would admit their crimes and beg for
mercy. City folk are wiser. They
know that the trial of the guilty Is
never a certainty until it actually be-
gins, and that the thing to do is to
attack all things connected with the
prosecution, keeping up the attack
until the public has divided it's s1m-
pathies between the prosecution ami
the lawbreakers.
Pittsburg is not a backwoods town
Therefore its unconfessed grafters are
planning a defense which will be
to-date in every particular. Note
their first move, and think of a cit
that is sometimes called the Paris u
America. PittsburE's unconfe
grafters pray that the indictments
against them be quashed on
ground that the foreman of the grand
jury is not an elector of Allegh
county and therefore not eligible to
serve as foreman. When this point
is Settled the unconfessed gratters
will find that other members of th'
grand jury We're ineligible. Possibly
they will discover a misplaced comma
in the indictment, or dig up a machine
made court decision designed
lease the big fish from the meshe
of the law.-San Francisco Bulletin.

Government Without Power.

Senator Pliny Allen asserts that
the management of the state land Of
flee has deprived this state of at least
$11, 100000.
GOV. Hay says there is no way rs
far as he knows by which he can
effect change in the management of
the office.
The matter must so before the leg
is lature where we presume there will
be the same devotion to political Chi
canery that was exhibited in the
Schively case, probably with the same
use of the whitewush brush
Plainly the laws of this state need

have been accepted, and so the comet
is expected in 1910.
Working out Halleys calculations
the date has been more closely fixed.
and has finally been almost unani-
mously agreed to be May is.
But at other times the great blaH-
ing monster has whirled bv. far out
into space. This time, unless calcu-
lations fail, it will brush us so close
that the earth will sweep through the
great luminous tail.
What will result?
That is the mystery of Nav IS, but
the scientists all seem to agree that
the tail of the comet will be merely
gas or else that it is only sunshine
concentrated through the comets
head.
None of the wise men has made
such a good case for his theory as to
all his fellows that he is right.
On the other hand. Prot Pickering.
of Harvard believes that the earth
was hit by a comet some so miles from
the Grand Canyon, in Arizona. At
that place, rising up in a desert. iS
a huge mountain $50 feet high unlike
in structure anything in that country.
They have drilled into it snd find that
at a depth of 1000 feet this strange
structure ends and the earth becomes
like the surrounding surface of the
earth.
This mountain, then, seems to have
struck against the earth and buried
seven-cights of its bulk in the ground.
Ii appears to have been in a molten
state when it struck. Its composition
is nickel, iron. shale and silica.
May IS will doubtless add a mar
velous chapter to the book of human
knowledge.
