IN HONOR OF PENN.

Recently a memorial tablet was unveiled in
London in honor of William Penn, the great
Quaker colonist The Quakers do not believe
in war. They have always been peace advo-
Gates. 1t is, therefore, curious fact that
talk formed prominent part Of the unwilling
ceremonies.
Admiral Lambton said that talking peace
will not make the Continental nations fall into
line He may have meant Germany. There
is too much peace talk, y he said 1t is woman
ish. Rear Admiral Chadwick glorified ships of
war and armies of the United States and an
nounced amid cheers, that Australia had just
established school for training young men to
war. Only one of the speakers, it seems men
toned the fact that we are now nearer than
ever to the realization of the dream of William
Penn.
Penn was one of the most intelligent and
far-seeing colonsts of this country, and his col
ony was the best planned of all. The first
of his settlers arrived in 1851, and very soon
there were three thousand of them In 1852
he laid out the City of Philadelphia. His Indian
policy was the that of Brigham Young.
His aim to keep peace with them, on the
simple principle of coming to understanding
with them and then keeping the agreements.
He used to say: EDO not abuse them, but
let them have justice, and you win them" Con
corning PENIS treaty of peace with the Indians
Voltaire said: 1T was never sworn to and
never broken"

JAPAN'S NEW TREATY.

The new fourth clause in the revised treaty
between Japan and England, signed in London
Thursday last, and annouced today, is inn
portant. The now superseded treaty has been an
obstacle in the way of arbitration At Great
Brtain's suggestion Japan now consents to mod
ify the mutual assistance clause so as to relieve
either party to the treaty from the necessity
of fighting with nation with which it had
concluded general arbitration treaty
Apparently Japan has become satisfied that
with is beyond probability. Otherwise
she would hardly have excused valuable an
ally Great Britain from taking part Fur
Their announcement is made that France is in a
most complacent mood, and that general arbi-
tration treaty between the two great republics
will probably be laid before the senate at the
same time with the English

EAT SARDINES A-PLENTY.

1t is encouraging in these days, when every
thing nice is condemned by scientific faddists
as nasty, to have the high authority of ''The

CONDUCTOR S LAST REFUGE.

Heretofore the wisdom of Solomon was re-
CURED of all street conductors many times
a day when the question of child's age arose.
This delicate problem has just been solved by
the Cincinnati Car company in manner that
would make the author of the Book of Proverbs
look to his laurels as a shrewd judge.
By careful computation it ascertained
that the average height of 5-year-olds is Al
inches, and accordingly mark was painted
at that height from the floor in their cars.
Hereafter there can be no insinuations regard

that nickel If dispute arises, the youngster is
marched up to the fare height mark and the

hatan Pentecost differed
as radically from the common log
cabin on Big Rainy as the black
bearded men and sloe eyed women
of the Pentecost clan differed
from the average lack luster
mountaineer who wrung a lean
living from his hillside acre. For
the Pentecosts were "cove' peo-
pie, and from these fat little
pockets of the range they had
drawn a superior bone and sinew.
Yet they were as distinctly

One summer afternoon Pow

rounded by his multitudinous

sister, eleven children GALL mar

grandchildren. The single absent
member of the clan was Pow
hatan's youngest son, Steptoe,
a sprig of twenty-five who had
fed the mountain by night two
years before. But today his name
was in everybody's mouth; for
he had taken unto himself a wife,
"lowland' wife,-in the verna-
cular, "furiner, and at this
moment was bridal touring to-
ward his parental home. Hence
the gathering of the clan.
He was expected in time for
dinner; but the thirty mile drive
from Holly Tree Station, over the
treacherous roads and unbridged
streams of the mountain, made
the hour of his arrival uncertain.
In fact, a number of those pres

dicted, that he would not appear
at all. In the first place, the in
dictment against him for shoot
ing a horse under Fabian Shrimp
