CHARACTERISTIC AND TERsE.
Mr.. Roosevelt on Difference Between
Sentiment and Sentimentality.

London, June 4.-The Times this morn
ing publishes a letter from Mr.. Roose-
welt written in reply to correspondent
who requested him to substitute the
word sentiment" for "sentimentality,
which he used in his address at the Guild
Hall last Tuesday when the freedom OF
the city was conferred upon him.
Mr. Roosevelt in his speech was analyZ-
ing British rule in Egypt. Britain. he de-
clared, had given Egypt the best govern
ment the country had had in 200 years.
but in certain vital points it had erred.
."Those who have to do with uncivilized
peoples, especially fanatical peoples" he
said. must remember that in such a sit
uatiop as that which faces you in Egypt
weakness. timidity and sentimentality
may cause infinitely more ham than Vio-
lence and injustice. Sentimentality is the
most broken reed on which righteousness
can lean"
To the objector to the use of the word
sentimentality Mr.. Roosevelt writes:
Dead Sir: l regard sentiment as the
exast antithesis of sentimentality and to
substitute sentiment for sentimentality
in my speech would directly invert my
meaning. | abhor sentimentality and, on
the other hand. think no man worth his
salt who isn't profoundly influenced by
sentiment and who does not shape his
life in accordance with a high ideal.
Faithfully yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT"

Bates s; Bowdoin S.

Brunswick. Me, June 3-(SpeciaD.-
IN one of the most exciting games ever
PLAYED on Whittier field Bowdoin lost
her annual Ivy day game to Bates by
the score of to this forenoon. At
no time during the game was it sure
thing as to who would win. Hobbs
work in the box for Bowdoin was very
good, allowing but one base on balls
and striking out three men while Har-
riman for Bates allowed two men to
walk and struck out five. The men
whom Bowdoin most expected to hit
hard were able to do but little and
the best hits We're by men who have
not headed the batting list this year.
keaney of Bates proved that he is one
of the fastest men in Maine when it
coraes to running bases and Smith of
Bowdoin also had three stolen bases to
his credit

GOVERNMENT FILES BRIEF
Right to Cancel Land Grant
Of 100000 Acres.

Portland, Ore, June 3-Upholding the
right of the federal government to have
cancelled the land grant made to the Ore
gon & California Railroad Co. by Con-
gress in 1866 and 1869 Of about 100000
acres in western Oregon, B. d. Townsend,
a special assistant to the attorney gen.
eral Of the United States. has filed in the
United States district court here the gov
eminent brief answering a demurrer in
terposed by the Southern Pacific Co.,
successor to the Oregon & California
Railroad Co., which attacked the govern
ment's complaint in many particulars.
Among the chief points urged were al
legged lack of jurisdiction and loss of
right by lapse of time. The brief con-
tains $40 printed pages and goes exhaust
lively into the history of the grant and
the charges on which the government
claims the right to attack it.
The relief prayed for is the return to
the public domain of about 100000 acres
of land still held by the company. The
lands are estimated to be worth between
$45, 100000 and $5o,00O,oOO

INCREASES ARE SLIGHT
On New York. New Haven & Hartford
Only Affect Through Rates.

New Haven, CT. June 3.-At the offices
of the New York, New Haven & Hart
ford Railroad Co. here 1t is stated that
the increases of freight rates which the
company has just filed apply only to the
joint through rates on certain commodi-
ties and do not affect local freight rates
in New England. 1t is also stated that
practically all the increases are very
trifling and only affect a small amount
of New England commodities.
The close affiliation of the New Haven
and Boston & Maine roads. both of which
have recently increased passenger rates.
has suggested that government action
might follow after the precedent of the
Western lines in the matter of freight
rates. At the offices of the New Haven
Co., however. it is denied that there has
been any combination with the Boston &
Maine in the raising of passenger rates
or any connection with any other Eastern
line in the almost simultaneous raising of
Communication fares to and from New York
City.

APPEAL TO PEOPLE.
Western Railroads and Illinois Manu-.
facturers Assn. Submit Briefs.

Chicago, June Instantaneous ap-
peals to the people were made today by
the Western railroads and by the ILL
nOis Manufacturers Association. The
railroads submitted their brief to 1.-The
men in the street and the farmers
limiting hard times If the railroads are
not permitted to increase their freight
rates.
The manufacturers tell the people not
to be deceived, because there is no
danger OF panic. and laud President
Taft for his action in obtaining the in
junction, hating the proposed increase
in rates.
On behalf of the railroads. Slason
Thompson, head of the railroad pub
licity bureau put forward four reasons
why railroad rates must be raised Ac-
cording to Mr.. Thompson the railroads
in the last two years are $22O,0OO,OO
behind on maintenance; they paid
$130,000,000 more annually for labor;
they paid $100,OOO,O0O more annually
for interest. they lost $25,00O,OOO an
nually on passenger traffic, with the
total result that they are $3.50, 000,ooo
TO the bad in two years"
Railway rates must be advanced be-
cause many companies otherwise VIII
face bankruptcy" said Mr.. Thompson.
The resolutions adopted by the ILL
NOS Manufacturers Association charges
officers of certain railroads with being
in a concerted movement to make the
people believe that the shippers and
consumers are making unfair demands
and that another financial crisis is i'm
pending. The manufacturers called on
the people to hold the hands Of the
government and demand that the
whole question of the advance or the
reduction Of freight rates should at
this time and at all future times be
presented to the Interstate Commerce
Commission for final adjustment.

The rustllng winds swept down among
the trees.
| saw SurluSe again when years had
flown.
still rose the hills and rocks against the
sky,
With still the stately walls and urerts
Great heaps of NOISY stone they lowered
strong
Beneath the blazing sun. And then a
man
All bent and gray with years came wan
dering down
And paused beside the rocks and gazed
with awe,
The grim. gray shapes lowered high in
stately lines
But ever covered hut the trailing vine
The ivy powered the gnarled and beaten
rocks
And softened all the angles. all the
points,
The trees ran riot down the long green
slopes:
Afar. far OFF the sea lay calm and still
While over all the ivy ran and spread
And covered all the bare, gray rocks
green.
Then from the door a hoy came running
And laughed with glee. but stopped as if
afraid
When first he saw the stranger leaning
The wall; yet gaining courage by delay
He crept close to him, pulled his sleeve,
and asked
What wish YOU waiting hcre?" The old
man turned
And looked on him. then smiled a kindly
smile
And touched the shoulder of the hoy.
See lad
This is my vine" he whispered as he
as he ga2ed.
"Nv vine | planted wears and years ago
Gone are the voices and the minstrelsy,
Gone are the comrades of those early
wears.
The kindly friends who led my early
steps.
