obligations, and always fastened to do
the bidding of the tariff barons Of
New England and the money kings Of
Wall street.
To-day. old and gray, worn out in
the service of their masters, Aldrich
and Hale retire in disgrace, spurned
by the people, reaping the bitter re-
ward of their own deliberate mis-
deeds.
Hale, covering before the wrath of
his own people in Maine, realizes that
his defeat is certain. and refuses to
face his disgraceful record in a. cam
paign.
Aldrich, high priest of standpatism,
is hated from ocean to- ocean. Re-
publican leaders regard him as a
handicap too heavy to risk. AS for
lorn hope they are casting him over
board-a concession to the voice of
the people.
The retirement of these two men in
disgrace is a victory for the people,
but 1t can not avert the storm. The
Senate contains other men as disgrace
full as Aldrich and Hale. If they do
not retire voluntarily they will be re-
tired forcibly when the voters come
to pass upon their claims to be re-
turned to the Chicago Jour
nal.
The Trust Cases.
Viewed solely from the standpoint
nj O 70 oct r,rsr nj, nj tvs
ton taken by the Supreme Court of the
United States in the Standard Oil and
American Tobacco Company cases
would necessarily be regarded as un.
fortunate. Theoretically nothing is
more desirable than an early and con-
elusive determination of the import
ant legal questions at issue in these
cases.
Notwithstanding the serious need
for an authoritative declaration of the
law applicable to the business prac-
tices that were called in question when
the prosecutions were instituted
against these two great corporations,
it is quite probable there was gen.
eral feeling Of relief In business cir
cles throughout the country when it
became known yesterday that the Su-
preme Court had ordered reargument
of both cases. The relief grew from
realization that another hearing means
delay and so postpones the ultimate
shock that is sure to come with final
decision affirming the action of the
trial courts. This is the natural view
of the average business man.
That combinations which restrain
the freedom of trade and throttle com.
petition should be prohibited by law
is candidly conceded by many who at
the same time dread the temporarily
depressing influence they fear will fol.
low enforcement of the governmental
policy they know to be right as a pure
matter Of principle. The same feeling
always stirs resistance to tariff reyi-
sion. In some measure 1t brings CD.
position to any radical change in the
existing business order.
1t SO happens that the disquietude
that paralyzed the financial and mer-
camille business of the country in the
closing months of 1907 is still some.
thing more than a memory. Indeed.
it is an open secret that the great lob
bling centers of the country have found
trade distinctly sluggish, If not exact
ly inert, during the last thirty or for

Four years ago the generous people
of London were providing 5000 hungry
school children with their dinners or
breakfasts week, an exchange says.
At that time they were subscribing
s7,700 year through various associa-
lions, while numbers of people spent,
on the average, G1,50o during the year
for providing food for the starving
school children of London.
Five years ago there were fewer
than 5000 children needing food which
their parents could not supply. To-day
there are $4,000 children in this posi-.
ton. each receiving about five meals a
week.
For years the pubic of London had
subscribed nearly 10000 a year to
provide food for the children. That
money is no longer forthcoming. The
growth in the army of the starving
children of London during the past
four years has been SO great that more
than six times 10000 is now wanted
to keep nearly 10000 London children
from being starved to death.

WOMAN WHO PAINTS ANIMALS.

Dogs Are the Tavoritc "Sittcrs" OF
This Talented Young Artist.
Miss Elizabeth Magill is said to be
one Nof the few successful women ami.
NAL painters living. So much is re-.
quired to paint animals well. for, un-
like human beings, no pride in appear
Ing at their best can influence ami
mails to seem at ease. Miss Magill has
to appeal to their other senses. and un.
derstands we'll the psychological mo.
ment at which some dainty must be
given to insure another respite OF a
short quarter of an hour. She is q
we'll known visitor at the London zoo,
where many of the animals have sat"
to her for their pictures.
Curiously enough, the Philadelphia
Record asserts, Miss Magill is not at
all anxious to be known as painter
of animals only, and some replicas Of
excellent portraits of men and women
in her studio and some recently fin
ished subject pictures point to there
being a reason for her having claim
to have reached distinction in another
branch of art as we'll.
1t is interesting to note that at a dog
show Miss Magill will succeed in COM
pleting a finished painting of dogs
head in an hour or so. She paints very
quickly, and thus has the great advan-
tage of never firing out her dumb sit
tiers. Some animals. by the artists
showing, ever remember with surpris-
ing intelligence the benefits accruing
from posing as models.
Miss Magill speaks with great respect
and affection of Carolus Duran. her
great French teacher, whose school in
Paris she attended for two years, and
who, more than anybody else, taught
her the art Of painting quickly A
model used to be given to the pupils,
in certain time 1t had to be finished,
and the pupil saw 1t no more. Paint
what you see." was Carolus Duran's
advice. mot what you imagine you
see" A thorough schooling at the
Slade school, and earlier in her life
art classes at Belfast. had preceded the
delightful time in Paris. and a strong
foundation of good draughtsmanship
was then laid.
Miss Magill numbers the king and
queen and many distinguished mem
bers of society among her patrons;
many will again and again commission
her to paint their pets. In the late
Queen victoria's lifetime she painted
the queens favorite donkey, and the
picture was much admired by her mai
esty. Lady, Muriel Digby is a great
admirer OF the artists delightful work
and has whole room hung with pic
lures painted by Miss Magill. Art pub
fishers gladly acquire the right to use
some of her most famous pictures for
book covers, and at Christmas time
some of her charming animal pictures
adorn choice cards of greeting. An en-
thusiastic animal lover, Miss Magill
has bred some famous dogs; beauti-
full and well bred spaniel is her own
pet and constant companion, and many
a friend has to thank her for a valu-
able present, either in the shape of q
live dog or painting Of favorite
pet.

WATER FOWL INCREASING
PREVAILING IDEA OF A DE-
CREASE DISPUTED.
Paper Read Before the Washington
Biological Society by W. L. McAtee
of the Bureau of Biology.

The Southern Migratory Grounds of
Water Fowl was the title of a paper
read before the Washington Biological
Society by w. L. McAtee Of the bureau
of biology, Department of Agriculture,
Saturday night in the George Wash
ington University building. The paper
contained the result of an extended
investigation my Mr.. McAtee in a half
dozen OF the gulf and south Atlantic
states last winter.
At the outset he told his auditors
that water fowl generally were on the
increase instead of gradually decreas-
ing. as had generally been supposed by
biologists and sportsmen. The con-
vincing fact. he said, was the thousands
and thousands of birds seen between
November and the beginning of March
in any of the stretches of water in
the southern states.
There are just as many water fowl
there in the winter at the present time
as there were fifty years ago. he said
And from what 1 can learn from the
hunting stories of earlier days there
has never been q steady appreciable
decrease"
Many hunters complain of the sup
posed decrease without an adequate
knowledge of the strong winged birds
he said. These go out to sea in the
day and return only at night to the
shore feeding grounds. Except in
rough weather shore shots were COM
paratively infrequent. This habit of
going to sea was to be attributed to
the gradually absorbed knowledge
from the persistent hunting of their
prOgenitors.
Mr.. McAtee displayed a number of
stereopticon views showing pictures of
the southern feeding grounds along the
gulf and south Atlantic coasts. Other
pictures shown were those of enormous
focks of Canadian geese. snow geese.
heads, mallard, ruddy ana teal ducks
in full flight. and individual pictures
of the rarer families or water birds
including the European widgeon and
several Varieties Of snipes. Views of
brown and white pelicans and Ameri-
can egrets were also thrown upon the
screen.

TEACH ME AND LET ME CO."
Seems to Be Motto of Yeomen and
Musicians in Navy.

From the Bluejacket.
Yeomen and musicians are grouped
by the bureau Of navigation in the same
class so far as developing an unwilling
ness in some cases to give the government
which trained them the benefit OF their
services when once trained.
Rear Admiral w. p. Potter, CHIEF or
the bureau, says the demand for yeomen
is still greater than the supply and that
a large percentage of them do not remaia
in the service. as upon discharge they
are highly trained men. many OF them
expert accountants, stenographers and
tvnewriters and SO able to command
higher wages in civil life than the navy
can pay.
In view of the vast amount OF prop
erty to be cared for on modern ships. u
has been considered advisable to select
from the classes men that are esi eciaiiy
adapted as accountants and Tor the care
and accountability OF property, ana these
men are now being detailed to the pay
departments in charge of stores.
AS to musicians. it is found that those
who attend the school for musicians AT
Norfolk and Newport generally apply
for their discharge or fail to re-enlist as
soon as they are musically competent TO
better themselves outside
II qualified musicians could be lnouceo
to enlist in the navy these classes Wouio
not he necessary; but the pay is too
small to attract any but incompetent or
half-trained musicians from the civil
life The bureau is convinced that the
complements of bandsmen will not %
filled until their pay is raised

CLASS IN GOOD MANNERS.
St. Paul Teacher Acts on Suggestion
of One Pupil.

From the 81. Paul Pioneer-Pfess
Miss Margaret Lennon, principal OF the
Mckinley School, agreeing with Loro
Chesterfield that good manners are to
particular societies what good morals are
tn society In general: their cement and
their security and realizing the fmpor-
lance of the subject, has instituted an In
novation in school instruction by devoting
a mart of the time usually spent In the
classroom to what the CHILDREN call
"eood manners class.
This class includes every member OF
the school. which has an average at
tendance Of between 800 and 1,OOo ana
IL held In the assembly room on the third
floor at irregular times and without no.
tice. Here the children are allowed TO
ask questions pertaining to good manners.
Each child asks a question and then an
swers it himself. The rest of the pupils
listen and make corrections.
Miss Lennon lays no claim to the honor
of suggesting the new idea She gives ali
the credit to a fifteen-year-old boy named
Alfred darcy Alfred was born In
Antwerp, Belgium, where he was edu-
Gated under private tutors to speak four
languages He came to America Year
and a half ago and entered the Mckinley
School.
One day he startled his teacher by ris-
ing i'm class and deploring the ill-manners
of the American children as compared
with the better class in his native land
and by asking why good manners were
not taught in the schools. Miss Lennon
heard Of his remarks and Immediately de-
cided to try his suggestion.

SCRIBED IN BULLETIN.
Department of Agriculture Begins
Crusade Against Dangerous Medi-
cines-Calls Names of Culprits.

While the Department OF Agriculture
has for some time been conducting .
campaign against the sale of headache
powders and tablets containing phenace-
tin, acetanild and other powerful heart
depressant drugs. il has just started
new crusade. through the medium OF
farmers bulletin, just published. giving
list of infant remedies that contain poi
sons and narcotics that have either
proved fatal to babies or have SO affected
their young organism as 10 produce drug
habits and other ills.
The bulletin gives the names Of some OF
the remedies and soothing sirups. together
with photographs of the original pack
ages analyses OF their contents and ex-
tracts from their literature. which claim
that they are entirely harmless. Some or
these remedies contain morphine. cocaine
opium canabis indica and heroin.
Some Of the claims made for these
drugs, according to the Department OF
Agriculture. are that they contain noth,
ing injurious to the youngest BABY ana
that mothers need not fear giving them.
as no harm can come from their contin-
ued use" The department says that az
a matter of fact there are numerous cases
on record where babies have been PUT TO
sleep never to awake, and that. In cases
where they did not die. the more serious
effect of infant drug addiction was pro-
duced.
The department in the same publication
prints a denunciation of numerous soft
drinks containing caffeine and extract OF
cola leaf to which II says ii Is not un-
common to find adults addicted. II also
mentions some harmful nostrums. ad-
vertised as cures for asthma. catarrii.
cold, coughs. consumption. epilepsy and
the tobacco habit. and states that some
physicians, in their prescriptions In treat
ing these diseases and in attempting to
cure The drug habit itself, often pre-
scribe the remedies that have produced
the conditions it is proposed to relieve.
