A FINGER OF WARNING

( Striking fearlessly in the heart of
their habitation, New York City, at
those who may start panics II they de-
sire, President-elect Woodrow Wilson
recently pointed finger of warning
at those who might deliberately create
a financial panic in the United Ctates
as blow 1T some of the economic poll.
cies Of the incoming administration.
Mr.. Wilson is strong believer in the
power Of publicity. It was that weapon
he declared he would use II such de-
liberate panic were effected. And he
knew, too, that he had every right
minded citizen with him when he de-
clared that he who instigated such a
thing would be hanged on the gibbet
OF public scorn.
Mr.. Wilson Is fearlessly right. He
knows his administration and his
party are entitled to q fair test of their
policies and he proposes to give them
that test II it lies within his power
He is not to be thwarted or even dis
mayed by threats from a small group
of financiers-he proposes to keep
faith with the people even after elect
ton. to carry out those things he stood
for before election and which he be-
lieves were responsible for his great
victory.
He has the weapon Of publicity at
hand. There are many papers through
out this country that will grant him
an audience with the people. 1t is
good that it is so, for already we read
in some Of the particularly biased Re-
publican papers dire predictions of
whats going to happen"
If a cat falls into rain barrel and
is drowned. they blame it to Demo
cratic hard times" They have no
sense whatever-or at least are too
narrow-of sane reasonableness, of
giving the Democratic party chance
to embrace its opportunities since
their own party has been repudiated,
and of granting to the Democrats a
full and free expression of that oppor-
tunity in executive and legislative &C
ton, but insteade. three months be-
fore the new president is inaugurated,
they begin the old. familiar howl.
Their position is so unreasonable
and so ridiculous that it is exasperat-
ing. We have no use for such a breed
of editors. The country is better off
without them. To be so blinded by
craftsmanship as to refuse to give their
readers a fair and honest view of a
situation. perverts and prostitutes
their sole excuse for existence in an
editorial capacity.
This world would be a very hum.
drum place in which to live, though.
If everybody agreed on everything.
That is about all the satisfaction there
is in their position.

CHANGES OF ALUMINIUM
POTS AND PAM

Utensils of aluminium often under
go rapid changes which may result
in their destruction. These diseases"
as the changes are called, take the
form of swellings, eruptions and bis
tiers on the surface and seem to be
caused by atmospheric agencies, such
as variations in temperature and hui
Nudity or by the nature of fluids con-
tanned in the utensils.
Two German investigators have re.
Gently studied these phenomena, says
La Nature, and arrived at the result
that only cold-rolled aluminium is sub
ject to these deterioratio while if
the metal is rolled at a temperature
of $50 Centigrade it is practically inn
mune.

Central Africa for Germany is now

and remarkable campaign has been be-
gun for the partition of Portugars colo

1t was suggested some time ago that
the time had come for Germany and Eng

gestion was coldly received in London and
warmly denounced in Lisbon, but this has
not discouraged the Germans. who con-
tinue to press for the partition Of An
COLA, which lies north OF German south
west Africa and also borders on Rhodesia
and the Belgian kongo. 1t would be an
extremely valuable addition to Germany's
colonial empire.
The suggestion which is now put for
ward is that Portugal is unable to keep
her colonies and ought to sell them to
England and Germany. 1t Is further sug-
gested that the present time is a good
one for the bargain on account of the de-
limitation of the frontier between Ger

PARIS. February /, 1912
A remarkable whirlwind tragedy was
enacted this morning at public sale held
In the Palais de Justice at MarseilIe
Two lawyers were shot down by an en-
ragged litigant whose goods had been
distrained upon, and the man then shot
himself. One of the lawyers is in a very
dangerous condition and the criminal is
also seriously injured.
The scene. which was quite unexpected,
was in a small room Of the law courts
where public auctions are held. By
French law public auctioneers are chosen
to limited number from among the So
licitors, and the public sales are held
as legal transactions under the control,
justice. The goods of a man named We
by creditors interested as guarantors of
an annuity policy, were being offered for
sale. Both Veron and some. of his cred
.itors, however, asked for a postpone
ment on the ground that a small prop
erty of his would, If sold by private
treaty. produce much more satisfac-
tory result.
Two barristers who appeared for the
other creditors opposed this application,
and the magistrate gave judgment In
their favor. Immediately judgment was
given Veron drew a revolver and fired
at the two lawyers The first was shot
in the temple and the second In the
neck. Before the ushers could reach him
he shot himself in the throoat. All three
victims had to be carried to the hospital.

Archduke Ferdinand Would Have II

VIENNA. February L. 1912,
The Archduke Francis Ferdinand. the
Austrian her-presumptive, has offered 70
give the Villa d'Este at Tivoli to the Aus.
trian state in order that 1t may be convert.
ed into home for Austrian artists. The
archduke inherited the villa and larxe
italian estates from the last Duke Of
Modena, who belonged to the Italian
branch of the Hapsburg family. He has.
however. never been able to use the villa
and has only visited 1t once or twice in
cogntto. as. like the emperor, he cannot
pay official visits to Italy. The villa,
with its magn .hcent park, was built i'm
1859 by Cardinal Hippolite d. Este, and is
well known as the subject Of innumerable
pictures and etchings.
II is not the intention of the archduke.
as was at first supposed. that the villa
should be used as an. academy, like the
Villa Medici I'm Rome, where young ar
lists enjoying state scholarships might
study. For this purpose it is too far from
Rome. The proposal Is that 1t should be
kept as retreat for Austrian painters,
musicians and authors when engaged on
some important work for which quiet and
freedom from care are necessary or when
reconvalescent after an Illness. List

BERLIN, February 1, 1912.
Princess August Wilhelm, the emperor 8
daughter-in-law, is one Of the contrib
utors to the exhibition Of table arrange
ment and decoration which opens here
February 10. Her exhibit is described as
supper table in a refined country
house." and its principal feature is a vast
green porcelain basket designed and mod
eled by herself. which, crammed to over
flowing with fruit and flowers in delib-
crate disarray, does duty as a centerp.ece.
The cloth, which was also designed by
the princess. is a delicate network of lace
set with butterflies, the whole In white,
but above a green background. All de-
tails had been arranged by the hands Of
the princess and her consort, who had
also furnished from their private treas
ufes the heavy, old-fashioned cut glasses
set to each cover.
Most of the other exhibits were supplied
by the lead ng ladies Of Berlin and Pots
dam society. They include with other
items, schemes for early-morning coffee
hunting breakfasts. al fresco tennis
lunches, afternoon teas and grand dinner
parties. In some cases the craze TO
realism Is carried SO far that the tables
are decurated--if the word is permissible
