THE OLD AND THE new

Sunday the last day Of 1yl1, was
a typical winter day for this
section. The thermometer reg
istered Is degrees below zero
Saturday night and Sunday was
cold enough to keep person off
the streets.
Sunday night was off the same
piece as that of Saturday night
and Monday morning, the first Of
the new year. was of about the
same temperature as Sunday
morning. There was no wind
during the day and the sun shone
bright and clear, and the after
noon was several degrees warmer
than the morning. 1t turned cold
in the evening and Monday night
was the coldest Uf the season, the
government thermometer register
ring 81 degrees below zero.

THE SUN AS A LAMPLIGHTeR

The Panama canal engineers arc
trying to harness the sun for the
job Of lamplighter. In the gas
burning lighthouse along the
banks of the canal will be installed
copper cylinders turned to the
sun. When the sun rise in the
morning and the rays fall upon
these cylinders the latter will
expand and close valves that admit
gas to the burners.
AS night approaches and the
suns rays diminish in power the
cylinders will contract and again
turn on the gas, which will be
ignited by small jets. Thus a con.
81 lerable economy will be realized
in the hire Of lighthouse tenders
and consumption Of gas.

THE WICKEDNESS
OF WEAK NATIONS

A bitter lesson must be taught
Persia. This has been decided
upon in st. Petersburg.
True Persia has CONSENTED to
discharge Mr.. Shus ter, who made
the prcpusterous mistake of sup
posing that she would be permitted
ty Russia and Great Britain TO
reform her finances: but she did
not do it soon cough. Her sinful
reluctance put Russia to the
trouble Of sending troops tc mas
sacre women and children in
Tabriz and elsewhere. and of
course Persia must pay not only
in money, but in blued and tears,
to teach her not to be again so
presumptuOus.
That is the way weak nations
always act toward strong ones.
They seem to have no moral sense.
They are always putting them
selves in the wrong.
There was the Boer republic.
All its boasted Bible reading did
not teach it to meet the Jameson
raj | by non.rcsistance and let alien
sJld-seekers run the country: so
Great Britain had to lay waste
the land. 1t cost $50 an acre and
the British didn't own the acres
in the land; hut the lesson in
polteness simply had to be taught.
Things are no better in the New
World. Columbia would not ratify
Mr.. Cron wells canal treaty and
TO lvenge the insult Mr.. Roosevelt
took the canal zone Oar mistake
was in pandering to a mawkish
public opinion by starting a fake
republic" instead Of grabbing
everything. That was sloppy
sentimentaIity; but the leader in
the transaction is franker now and
says / took it,"
What possesses the weak nations
that they should act so shamefully
toward strong ones? Have their
statesmen never read of the
abandoned conduct f the lamb
that troubled the stream where
the wolf frank? - New York
