FROM wBOOKLOvERS
MADE PLAIN HERE
Contestants Should Read These
Answers Carefully and Avoid
Asking Similar Questions.

The all-important question that seems
to be puzzIing contestants in the EVE
MING STARS Great Booklover Con-
test is whether it is necessary to write
the book titles exactly as they are
found in the EVENING STARS book
catalogue. These queries refer mall1y
to articles "A, An and The" Lee Us
take for example 1.-THE Little Minister
by j. NJ. Barrie. This title is listed III
the book catalogue under the alphabet
L." But, and note the But, it is not
necessary tina contestants write the
answer alphabetically upon tflelf
coupons, and as stated in the LOOK
catalogue IL is not eevn necessary 10
include the article The in this cases
Thus it should be understood BY all
contestants that they may write the
book titles as they are found in alpha
betical order in the STARS book
catalogue-or they may write thein
with the prefix "a" An or THE as
the example herewith. Either way will
be considered right.
There seems to have been some MIS-
understanding on the part of some con-

whatever has been said on this Sub
ject heretofore has been along similar
lines. The editor of the BOokloyers

counted correct regardless of the
articles. A. An and The, as long as
they state the correct title of the book
and its author.

some instances in your catalogue
there are names with only the IN
itials of the author instead of the
full name. Is it necessary to give
the full name?
No, it is not necessary. If ii woLld
have been necessary the EVENING
STAR would have included the full
name in the catalogue. Follow the
catalogue.
Editor b. L. e.-In case several

HORSE CAUSES
STIR AMONG SHOPPERS

At the time of the busy shopping
hour in Broad street a horse attached
to a delivery wagon standing in front
of Stoutenburgh & Co.'S store became
frightened and ran away. Joseph Gold
stein, the owner Of the rig, claimed he
left his horse tied while he was away
from the wagon, and is at a loss as to
what frightened his steed.
The runaway gave a good account
of his "dodging'' ability in the short
run to Halsey street. through Branford
place, by just clipping several carriages
and automobiles. In turning into Hal
sey street the horse ran into the real of
an Empire automobile, the property OF
the national agency at 200 Halsey
street. The rear light of the machine
was smashed, while the horse and
wagon escaped injury.

ALL JAPAN M0URNS IN
MEMORY OF KING EDWARD

TOXIC, May 20.-An impressive. me-
mortal service TO King Edward VII.
was held today in Trinity Cathedral.
The emperor and empress were repre-
scented by the crown PRINCE and crown
princess. Many high officials attended
as well as the diplomatic representa-
tlves, the court dignitaries and repre-
sentativcs of the army and navy. The
streets were lined with mourners. but
only a very limited number were ad-
mitted to the church.
The British and Japanese flags were
displayed throughout the city. All
theatres and other places of entertain
ment were closed throughout the en-
pire. Never was a foreign monarch
nlourned here SO deeply and sincerely.

Thus it passed through the purple
draped streets to the castle and into st.
Georges Chapel.
As the minute guns doomed and bells
tolled the casket, borne on the shoulders
of g~renadier guards, was placed on the
eatafalaue. The lord chamberlain and
the lord steward took positions at the
right of the eatafalque. King George,
as the chief m%ourner, stood at the head
of the casket.
King George, as the chief mourner,
stood at the head of the casket. His
matesty's body guard of gentlemen-of-
arms stood at the left of h bier with
axes reversed. The funeral party filled
the edihce and overlooked into t m
prince consort's chapel to the south.
There was a moment of profound ST.
lence when positions had been taken
and then the Archbishop Of Canter-'
h,1rv and the Bishop of Winchester
advanced to the casket. The choir
ehanted "Man That Is Born of
woman and the congregation reeited
the Lords Prayer, the low rumble Of
many voices being accompanied by
Gounod's music. The service of the
Church of England was followed
throughout. Following the Lords
Prayer the anthem, How BEST are
They.' was sung, after which the
neutrality-suspicious. advanced to the
altar and offered a prayer.
The archbishop of Canterbury pro-
nounced the solemn benediction, after
which, with the bishop of Winchester,
he knelt before the altar in a momen
of silent prayer As the clergy rose
to their feet the hush was broken and
the procession Withdrew from the
ohapel in the order of its entrance. Inc
body of Edward VII. remained before
the altar, later to find a permanent
resting place in the royal tomb house
in Albert Memorial Chapel.

GROWTH OF GERMAN CITIES.

01bO " II OE 0IJAthdAf Vi A1%O'
The rush to the cities. or. at least, the
inclination to develop great cities, evi-
IDENTIFY prevails in Germany as well as
In Great Britain and America, though
1t seems to be a feature of recent years,
which has arisen since the organization
of the empire. Formerly, for obvious
reasons, Germany had no great metrop-
oils and no large cities. while the over
whelming masses Of the people lived
outside Of cities and large towns. \
century ago there were only two Consid-
erable places in Germany - namely,
Hamburg and Berlin-neither of which
had as many as 100000 inhabitants. in
Guiding its suburbs, while Paris had
60C 900 and London more than 1,0OO, 600
In those two places dwelt only about
1.25 per cent of the German people.
Now there ere no fewer than 81 large
cities or towns in the empire of more
than 100000 inhabitants each, embrac-
ing some 20 per cent of the population
Of the empire.
1t is reckOned that at the beginning
of the last century Berlin had $4,000
inha bitants, while Paris had 60S000
and London had 100000. BY 1861 Ber-
lin. as nothing but the PrUssian capital,
had increased to 577 900, while Paris
numbered 1884. GOO and London 1854
600. In the first year of the present
century the German capital had grown
to 2,469.0OO, while Paris had grown to
only 3,44S.000 and London TO 5.ST9, 600.
The causes of this marked growth Of
Berlin, which has been almost paralleled
by that of Leipsic, Dresden, Munich
and other places, are various. The Gre
alton of the empire is doubtless one of
them, and the chief, since many of the
other causes are secondary 10 and de-
pendent upon il. The enormous deveI-
opment Of German industries and COM
merce has also contributed to it, and
this latter in turn suggests a general
and profound change in the character
of the German nation. Probably in no
ether country of Europe has the change
Of occupations been so marked and so
significant This fiocking TO the cities
has doubtless enormously increased the
industrial potency Of the nation, but 1t
has made it in some important particu
lars less self-sustatning and more de-
pendent upon other lands and therefore
upon the maintenance Of peace with all
neighbors. The nation which depends
for prosperity upon its foreign trade
and which is compelled TO look abroad
for the food Of the people gives precious
hostages TO peace.

70 C0ysERTE NIAGARA.

The report Of the committee on the
protection and restoration Of Niagara
Falls, which Is approved 10y the Secre-
tary OF War and IS now before Congress,
is simple and direct and offers promise
Of efficiency. 1t proposes the acqusi-
ton by the United States Of a strip of
land extending from the state reserya-
TiOn 10 the other end OF the Gorge. and
including the ralus the face Of the cliff

This is 70 be cleared OF all existing
buildings and restored as nearly as pos
sible 10 its original state The taking
of water from the river above the falls
IS 70 be restricted 10 an amount which
will not percepribIy lessen the flow.
Thus il is planned 10 preserve the great
cataract for ali time in an appropriate
nctural setting
The execution Of such a plan would
be credirable 10 the American nation;
indeed, not 10 do something Of the sort
would be discreditable Niagara is not
q local nor q state nor even a national
possession. II i not even merely an inter
national possession between the United
dcwment of the human race for MI

and this generation Is a trustee. holding
IL for al posterity. To despoil It or fall
10 keep ii in the best possible condition
would be z breach Of trust
We believe also that the execution ~
such plan would be prac 4cally and
pecuniarily profitable Ii would cost
the government considerable sum. but
that would be repaid 10 TIE public many
times through the added attractiveness
Of the place and through the enhanced
value Of the adjacent property and the
increased revenue Of the community. A
tract Of land reaching TO the very edge
OF the cliff is now valuable for hotel
purposes. but a similar tract stopping a
hundred yards back from the brink and
fronting there upon a park would PROD
ably be Of greater value. The nearer
