LIFE AS PLAY.
An Element thnt Enters Into Many
Useful CaIIinEs.

Useful CRIlinEs.
Not in the ground Of need. not in bent
and painful toll. but in the deep-centered
play-instinct Of the world, in the joyous
mood Of the Eternal Being. which is al
ways young, Science has her origin and
root. and her spirit, which is the spirit
Of genius in moments OF elevation. is but
a sublimated form of play, the austere
and lofty analogue OF the kitten playing
with the entangled skein. or Of the eaglet
sporting with the mountain winds
of course. science is play" says Jo-
seph Lee, in the Survey. Real science.
that is 10 say, the science which is the
true adventure Of the mind. And play
from almost the first is largely science.

OF course, art is play. That is, IL justi
fies itself. Beauty does not exist for 9TH
or things. but all else exist for it, In
fact, all real things are play in the last
analysis, all things that are worth while
for themselves That is what we mean
by play. Play is the pursuit Of ultimates
as distinguished from the service OF sec
ondary means. 1t is. therefore. the crucial
thing in life. II is the final up-against-
it that gives value to the rest. Life is
in the final test a sporting proposition.
Even industry is truly valuable because
II expresses thought and character and
the love Of beauty-for the play element
that II contains. The reason getting job
transforms a young mans life Is because
it satisfies the gang instinct TO make
good, TO be somebody as a member in
full standing Of the society 10 which he
happens TO belong. The useful is q prop

The British Parliament recently author
lied the appointment Of two new judges
to the High Court bench. English judges
complained with being overburdened with
work, and Parliament took prompt action
10 assure a proper turning Of the wheels
of Justice The High Court is composed
OF two divisions. Kings bench and Chan
Gerry. Four Of the six Judges on the
Chancery bench are under sixty, but
over fifty Justice Joyce is still active
at seventy. Sixteen judges occupy tie
Kings bench, including Lord Chief jus
tice Alverstone. The appointment of the
two new judges will give the King
bench eighteen judges, and Il is hoped
will greatly dispatch their work
The judges on the Kings bench are, on
the average. older than the Chancery
judges. Justice Lawrence still sits at
seventy, and is not contemplating retire.
ment About 10000 cases are filed annu-
ally in the Kings bench OF these 10000
about 5000 are set down for trial, and
Of these about 1000 actually are tried.
Two-thirds Of these cases are tried in
London. the other third on circuit II is
estimated that each judge tries annually
30 cases, twenty years ago the average
was 1jl cases. The judges work thirty
six weeks of the ffty-two of the year;
they sit only five hours a day for five
days a week. and their absences due 10
illness average only four days a year
or all the judges in the Old World,
there are no others that enjoy a repu-
tation that corresponds so closely with
that OF the Supreme Court Of the United
States as the members Of the High Court
OF Justice Of England and. inasmuch as
the jurisprudence Of the greater part OF
America is based upon and I'm line with
that Of Great Britain the method OF their
selection is well worthy of study
To sum up the matter briefly. they are
nominated by the prime minister, who
usually seeks the advice of the lord
high chancellor in the matter. and they
are then appointed in due form by the
sovereign. unless he sees any reason for
Withholding his approval. Neither Of the
two houses of the national legislature
are called upon to ratlfy the appoint

had. either through the ignorance Of the
administration or through some political
intrigue, secured a place upon the bench
the premie. would be quickly and Sc
verely taken to task in the lords. as well
as in the commons. and would be con-
fronted with almost certain political de-
feat
For If there is one thing more than an
other OF which the English people, ire
spective OF party. are intensely Jealous,
it is the purity of the ermine Of their
judges. to which they rightly attach the
most supreme Importance. Political con-
siderations carry no weight whatsoever

IS EXTENDED
BUREAU OF INDIAN AFFAIRS
CLOSES SALOONS AT sEMrpI1
AND FossToN AND MooRHEAn.
EVANSVILLE AND OTHER
TOWNS MAY SOON HAVE TO
FOLLOW.

Dispatches from Washington state
that the Bureau of Indian affairs has
decided to enforce it's anti-liquor regu-
iatIons on a larger area of the ceded
Indian lands in Minnesota than has
ever before been attempted. All the
lands within and adjacent to White
Earth and Leech Lake reservations
will be embraced in the prohibition
territory which includes Becker, Clay,
Hubbard, Mahnomen, and Norman
counties and portions Of BeItrami
Itasca, Polk. Clearwater, Red Lake,
Crow Wing, Ottertan and Wadena
counties. At Fosston the two saloons
were given twelve hours time to pack
up what liquors they had on hand and
cart it over to the depot the United
States officers being on hand to all
the station agents receipts before
Bemidji were closed in the same man
ner. The refunding of the. license
money to the saloon keepers will be
a question to be decided in the courts
The city Of Moorhead with it's forty
two saloons is included in the order,
but the business men of that city ap-
pointed a committee to go to Wash
ington to take the matter up with the
Interior Department and will make a
special fight to retain the privilege OF
shipping beer as that city is large
shipping point Of brewers for their
trade in North Dakota. The brewers
claim that beer is not spurious
liquor and consequently will not come
within the prohibition contained in
the treaties under which the lands
were ceded Whether MOorhead
should be wet or dry town hinges
therefore upon the question, whether
beer is a spurious liquor as viewed
by the Interior Department.

A New Case of English Humor.
Two southerners were entertaining
an Englishman when one Of them told
the following story:
There was a poor white in our coun-
ty named Yarrow, whom every one
thought dishonest, but who had never
been caught stealing. At last he got
too bold, and through the testimony of
a Mr.. Brown he was sent to jail. Soon
after Yarrow served his sentence Mr..
Brown was obliged to go to Baltimore
and have his eyes operated upon. A
much exaggerated account OF the ops

told to Narrow,

worthy, that when the doctor took out
that old Browns eyes he'd dropped

At the conclusion of the story the
other southerner laughed heartily, but
the Englishman was Mortified. 'SssJust

room when such a serious operation
was being performedw- Lippipcott's.
