Motorbuses Instead Of Street Cars ?

From the Chcago heCofd deIau
After noting traffic conditions in New
York city for a week, Lord Montagu OF
Beaulieu, vice president OF the Automo-
bile Club of Great Britain and student
Of transportation methods. says that city
should substitute motorbuses for street
cars in its most crowded streets. The
notorious. in his opinion, has been de-
yeloped until it Is a better means Of pub
-: transportation than the street car. 1t
q n be operated. he says, at cheaper
cost per passenger and per mile than
the street car. owing to the fact that 1t
needs no permanent way; it can take on
and discharge passengers at the side OF
the street and 1t can move more freely in
the streets.
The possibility Of the notorious sup
planting the street car has been recog-
laixed by street railway men for several
years. II, as Lord Montagu claims. ''near-
iy all those who have studied traffic
problems In the older countries are losing
their faith in tramcars and are turn
inx their attention to the free-wheeled
mechanical vehicle" it would be well for
American cities to study the operation of
the motorbuses In Paris and London. Not
to have tracks in the streets and not
to have the noise of street cars would be
q blessing to the public. TO say nothing OF
the nexibility Of operation possible with
the notorious.

The Swiss President.
From Harper's Weekly.

The President OF Switzerland is SO
hedged about by the constitution that
except for official purposes and to IA
cilitate the exchange Of courtesies and
of amicable understandings with for
eign nations. he has no more standing
than the other six members of the
council. of which he forms a part.
He is elected for one year has no off,

is to sign the documents OF the bum
desrat, or council of seven. His salary
is in our money equal to about $500
a Year. and there is no provision for
private expenses, such as travelling or
entertaining He is expected to live
in the capital OF the country during
the year he holds Office. His associate
members in the bundesrat get $4,000 a
year, and they are elected for three
years, their votes having the same
force as that OF the president
AS a rule. the President Of Switzer-

A JAPANESE ROBIN HOOD.
There Is Luck in a Piece of Nezumi
Kozo's Headstone.
rom the Arponaut.

From the Argonaut.
Behind the temple sacred to the name
less dead and close to the wrestling
amphitheater in Toxic there is to be
found the grave Of the celebrated rob-
Der, NeZumi Kozo, who stole from the
daimycs long ago in the old Yedo days
that he might relieve the sufferings Of
the poor.
There is a superstition connected with
this grave which has made it q much
freQuented spot. If portion Of the
hcadstone is carried away it acts as a
lucky talisman, particularly to those
who speculate or are otherwise engaged
in games of chance. 1t is usual for a
person breaking a piece from the stone
to make a vow that in case he is sue
cessful he will buy a new headstone to
replace the one he has mutilated. Many
prayers must have been answered, for
the stones are piled high on either side
of the grave. and an enterprising .indi-
vidual nearby has the stones all ready
for sale and only waiting the name Of
the donor to be engraved and then
set up.
A shelter has been placed over the
spot. and from the roof hang gay IAN
terms and pilgrims banners A large
money box catches all the stray sen,
which go for the upkeeping of the
grave Gamblers and geisha are often
visitors: students before their examina-
tions feel more assured of success If
they have a chip of Nezumi Kozo's
headstone in the sleeve of their XII
mono.

As to Miracles.
From the Christian Register.

From the Christian Register.
In discussions about miracles it is COM
mon to overlook the distinction between
belief In. certain specific wonders because
they are in the Bible or because some peo-
pie think it necessary to have some such
sign to believe that the divine element Is
really competent in the world, and the
belief in miracle as the presence Of
spiritual elements In the natural order.
One who observes how far investigation
and psychology are from bringing out of
the dark the common facts OF experience,
and how the union Of physical processes
with vitality is the unexplained mystery
of science, is loath to have his rejection
Of miracle interpreted as a denial of a
potency that cannot be written out in a
recipe. That while belief in miracles de-
clines belief in miracle is as deeply root
ed as ever in the mind. is instructive.
To say 1t Is present in the common order
Is not to make ii common. It is to say
that the common order Is the manifesto
ton Of spiritual forces. The oldsfashion-
ed way of putting the matter by the con-
trast OF the words natural and super
natural had better yield to such words
as material and spiritual" To deny
the supernatural is not to deny the es-
sence Of miracle To affirm the spiritual
is not to deny the inviolability of the nat
ural For what is religion but the use of
the highest part of nature, and the belief
that it Is superior to its material?

Luxuries in America.
he Philadelphia Telegraph.


During the fiscal year just ended we are
fnformed that the cost Of necessa ries in
this country advanced very considerably.
We are much less generally informed,
though it is an established fact, that dur
Ing the same period the American people
imported unprecedented quantities Of lux
urtes, very desirable but quite unneces-
sary articles of use and adornment
Thus, coincident with our complaints
about the cost of living, We bought broad
$4O,OOO00O worth Of art works. $50, 600 O99
worth of diamonds. $44COO,OOO worth OF
laces and embroideries, $1,000, coo worth of
toys. and last, but by no means least
$32,OOO0OO worth Of tobacco As whole
the nation appears still to have wealth
in abundance to purchase what the Treas
ury Department calls articles of volun-
tary use. But when we speak of the
people" spending $iO,OO0.OGO a year for
foreign art works it is well to RENE mber
that ''the people" are composed Of a rela-
lively small minority of our population
This same mental discrimination must be
exerted in the matter of diamonds. laces
and embrO.deries. 1t is also true that the
majority Of native Americans consume
native tobacco, Havana" being a Satur-
day night smoke for the mass of men.
Despite all this, however, it is nice to
know that America is still luxuriously
wealthy country even If the distribution
of this wealth is little ''lumpy" in
places.

THE ALEUTS OF ALASKA.

From the Christian Hera "a.
The word "Aleut" in the Eskimo Ian
guage means "other utes." or people. ant
such they are, for their appearance ano
modes Of life differ to such an extent as
to warrant their being called ''other peo-
ple"
There were two found among them

tain that these people came from north
ern Asia. Their appearance is more OF

superior to the native race. He is cleaner
of habit than the Eskimo and more will

was not in a common burial ground, but
in a room of the house especially con-
structed for that purpose. The corpses
were buried in a sitting posture.
Certain caves were used also as place
to bury the dead but owing to the occur

few had the Gist.nc ion CT being stuffed
with moss and made into mummies and
placed in caves. These customs have long
since changed, owing to the efforts of the
Russian priests; and now few there are
that can offer an explanation for the
strange burial rooms, the cave burials
and the moss-stuffed mummies.
The Aleuts occupy tie island PENN

Three hundred are well cared for at the

Athletics and Holy Men.
From the Boston Transcript.


Khat inconsistent demand that clergy
men shall not be as other men. which.
when it appears. rebounds to the disad-
vantage of the parishioners, has had a
severe check from an active young vicar
of Birmingham. Rev. Mr.. Gillingham is
known across England as "the Essex
county crieketer, and incidentally as the
vicar of Holy Trinity. Certain of his
parishioners, who intimated that such
conduct was unseemly in a holy man,
now wish they had not, for the vicar
made spirited defense and even the
conservative wing Of the press greets. his
remarks with hearty applause. The vicar
declares that cricket Is an asset to him !;
that when he goes to speak to men. it is
not as the vicar OF Holy Trinity. but as
the Essex cricketer. Furthermore. it ap-
lete has collected s3OO from cricketers
and lovers OF the game, without which
1t would have been impossible to carry
on the work Of the parish. THE charge
Is often brought against the clergy that
they cannot do what other men do. and
they are generally represented as pale
faced weaklings. l know perfectly well
that was not ordained to play cricket:
that my mission in life is to touch the
hearts of men and bring them back to
heaven again. This l am trying to do
and If l found my cricket hindrance
rather than help, should give it up i'm
medately.'
The view askance at the minister who
joins in the ordinary affairs of life-hap-
PLY fading one-survives from an age
which set its holy men apart, because 1t
saw no way Of reconc!ling their professed
ideals with the enforced practice of living
and getting living. Yet the efforts Of
the clergy to break through this hedge
of hierarchical awe have not invariably
met with the welcome from their fiocEs
which 1t deserves, for the most unwel-
come gospel which can be preached to
the modern congregation is that religion
is not an abstract belief. but a line Of
practical conduct.
