TICk.TOCK.

Since man began to regard their
achievements as worthy of preserva-
ton. they have figured and recognize
ed division and measurements of time.
Probably men did this long before the
beginning of recorded history: even
the veriest savage takes time into his
reckoning. measuring it by suns and
moons. by SHOWS and the flight of wild
fowl From some of these our own
divisions came: day and night were
obviously the first measurements: the
moon helped determine the length of
the month; the seasons made other
natural divisions which man in time
learned to figure accurately. Then
came genius with a sun dial. that
the day might be accurately measured
by hours and minutes: mechanical in
genuity applied these measurements
to clock that night and day alike
might be properly reckoned. From
time to time the calendar has been
revised. until we have the year prop
erly set to the rhythm of the sun.
The stop watch snaps accurately min
ute fractions of second. A perfect
timepicce in Washington sends its
records over endless ramifications of
electric wires. Man views it all in
wonder. and complacentlp says: I'VE
have learned to measure time"
Perhaps mechanically and mathe-
matically we have. Almost as soon
as he learns his letters, the child
learns to read the clock on the man.
tel. Like man. the child believes he
has learned to measure time and
in the same way, with limitations, he
has.
But how little, after all. do dials
and figures count in this reckoning
all must make. Now. as in the be,
beginning. the true measurement of
time is achievement. Eight times the
long hand circles to make up the
eight-hour day. but unless it sees
some real work done by you. it bet

Perhaps the greatest man in the
world today; surely the most famous
living American, attributes his sue

working his best. when he worked,

MORSE'S PARDON.

After exhausting every effort OF
able attorneys to save Charles w
Morse from the prison, the sentence
was begun. Morse hasn't been in
prison long, but long enough for his
friends to take steps looking toward
a pardon. Morse's best friend is his
wife, whose fight for her husband Is
liberty has been the one fine feature
of q sordid business. But Morse has
other friends who haven't forgotten
him in his hour of trouble, even if he
did bring the trouble on himself.
Blank petitions to President Taft,
asking for Morse's pardon, are being
circulated in the eastern states, and
may soon find their way westward.
In New England, these are being sent
out from Boston by a man who says
he never saw Morse, and has no
further interest in the case than to
see justice done. He doesn't believe
Morse got it. And there are others
who incline to this belief, regardless
of the wisdom of the courts; enough,
probably, to make showing on pc
tition for pardon. But, suppose Mr..
Taft should grant the pardon; how
the wolves would howl that he was
the facile tool of the money power
And for that reason, if no other, you
needn't expect to see Morse pardoned
in hurry.

COLLEGE CREWS
BEGIN THEIR WORK
~
There Is a Boom in Branch Of
Sport This Year in the
East

bcston. Mass, March 2.-For the
next four months, almost to day,
rowing will share the center of the
college athletic stage along with
baseball and track athletics. In the
east college rowing is enjoying a de-
cided boom. There are evidences Of
this on almost every hand. In this
connection one might cite the return
OF Princeton university into the inter-
varsity Aquatic field after an alb
sence of nearly three-score years.
Then there Is the resumption of var
sity rowing at Georgetown and the
announcement that Georgetown will
again he seen at the Poughkeepsie
regatta; also there is the proposed
invasion OF the University of WASH
ington's crack varsity eight which ia
coming as far east as Madison. Wis.,,
early in, June to meet the Badgers
crew. prior to the latter's departure
for the Hudson.
The only thing lacking to give COL
lege rowing in the east the widest
possible scope this year is the fact
that neither the navy nor Princeton
is to participate in the intercollegiate
regatta.
Work and training trips on the part
of the middies caused the naval aca-
DENY superintendent to refuse to
sanction journey to Poughkeepsie
this year.
There was more fall rowing last
year than usual and in consequence
crew work in the tanks this winter
did not get quite so early start as
III some former seasons. There was
marked difference in the manner in
which the coaches regarded the fall
rowing. Courtney. at Cornell for in
stance. devoted most of the work to
the freshmen, getting a line ON the
candidates. and now he feels that he
knows just the men upon whom he
can count to be Of assistance to the
freshman crew. Wray, at Harvard,
devoted all of his attention to tho
varsity candidates, not even calling
out the freshmen. Kennedy at Yale
had everybody out, even pulling men
away from the football squad, while
Rice at Columbia gave fall work to
varsity and freshmen alike. but dis
banded his freshman squad because
OF a lack of interest. ...,.gaass
The intercollegiate rule, preventing
all crews rowing at Poughkeepsie
from having match races with one an
other earlier in the season, tends to
keep down the number of preliminary
contests. This rule has redeeming
feature in the absence from Pough-
keepsie of the navy, for several of
the crews that will later be seen on
the Hudson. Syracuse, Columbia and
Georgetown, will row on the Severn
as the guests Of the naval cadets.
Harvard is very nicely off in the
way of preliminary races-too much
SO. in fact, in the opinion of Coach
Wray, who isn't assbft enthusiastic
over the idea of shipping his men to
Annapolis even though it does give
them nice trip and 9 chance to en-
Joy warmer weather during the spring
recess. Last year Harvard didn't
make any Annapolis trip for the rea-
son that the Cornell race was to be
rowed at Ithaca, which made two
trips for the crew away from home
out Of the question. This year the
Cornell race is rowed on the Charles
river.

solicitation Of Mr.. Roosevelt that he
consented to accept the place for one
year. He' told me at the time that he
didn't want the place, that 1t was al

and he felt that he could not disobey
1t. But he made the provision tina,
he would remain but one year.
The Yukon exposition was q great
thing for Washington and the entire
Pacific coast" said Mr.. Chilberg.
THAT whole section of the country
has profited handsomely"
mo better or safer opportunities
for investments that will yield sure
and profitable returns are to be found
than in Great Falls, Mont" said A.
F. Swope Of that city.
Confidence in the advancement of
real estate values in the next few
years is abundantly demonstrated .by
the large number of real estate trans
fers made recently. The increase in
the number and size of industries.
new railroad facilities, settlement and
development of the great agricultural
areas, and construction of great irri-
CATION systems are now advancing
the value of investments. More than
81 100000 was spent last year in new
construction.
Cascade county is particularly rich
In scenic wonders. The series of falls
are among the most wonderful in
America. The Giant spring is one of
the largest in the world, and was of
particular interest to Lewis and
Clerk on their memorable trip across
the continent in 1905. There are
many points Of interest in Cascade
county. A two hours ride from Great
Falls, for instance, will unfold scenes
that cannot be surpassed for grandeur
among all the mountains of the west.
There are many trout streams in the
country, and small and large game
are to be found in abundance. II I
we're a young man should look for
no better place to make fortune"

WHERE EXPERIENCE FAMs

When Anna Could married Count
Boni. it was an excusable mistake on
the ground of inexperience, there be-
ing plenty of people not wise enough
to profit by the mistakes of others.
Therefore, people felt little sympa-
thy for her when martial troubles
headed her way, and rejoiced when
the titled rounder was sent to the dis
card. But, when she chose another
of similar type, she sacrificed public
sympathy. and interest in her case
waned. But in this, as in most mat
tiers. the public judgment is superior
to the individual. The Prince de
Sagan amounts to little enough. even
If he is less villainous than Boni. But,
even if Anna can't learn from expe-
rience, the rest of the Gould family
can, and they are doing a little to
husband central branch resources.
Prince de Sagan, it seems, has a few
little debts of some 100000 hang.
ing over his estates in Germany, and
it seemed cinch to him that the
Gould millions would cancel these.
Indeed. he felt SO sure of it that he
invited his friends to the spring shoot
ing on the German estates, and sent
his best wines there. But he can't
occupy the estates until he pays, and
he can't pay, because Gould lawyer
balks his game. 1t is quite embar-
RAISING to the prince, and. If lawyers
can interfere in this manner, it may
wreck the American heiress market.

THE NEW CHRIST

That weak and effeminate pictures
OF Christ have bad effect on boys
Is the belief of Prof. George B. Gil
bert. of the Hartford school of theo-
logy. as expressed in an address OF
THE Church and the Bad Bow.
Manly pictures of Christ, not the
weak, feminine kind, are needed IN a
boys room." he said. Christ never
was represented as a bearded man
In the early churches. Christ. in a
picture for the hoy. should be shown
as young. round lmbed. strong and
active. Have a picture of Christ in a
boys room kicking over the money
changers table and smashing them
over the head with it,"
