OUTINGS FOR THE POOR.

This is the season of the year when the City Mission has the opportunity Co do a most commendabie work in the conduct or fresh-ai outings for the poor Of the city. but finds itself hand scapped by financial reasons from fur nishing as much Of such beneficial re- lief as it might otherwise be inclined to do. The period for the outings cov- CTS the next two months and ueces- sarily the most deserving will receive he boat or trolley trips which the funds will allow.
 The value 0f these outings are be- yond calculation for they are given to people who would not otherwise get away from the humdrum of the hot and unattracuve neighborh0ods It is those who understand the conditions of the people who will be benefited by such outings who can best appreciate ths great amount of good that they do. There are plenty of woods and the de- lightful Mohegan park in which women and children every day enjoy hours of rest and pleasure but a change is as much a necessity as the outing. A day down the river by boat or by trolley 10 the beach breaks the mon0tony Of vesriFome days of toll from one years end tc another. It adds a new interest to life and makes a bright spot in an otherwise unvarying existence. Inter est should be aroused in the good work and the funds made sizable for the accomplishment of greater good.

The dangers Of aviation and the need Of the safe aeroplsne is being brought Co mind more f0rcibly every day and the conqueror of the air who can re- tain that title for any length of time is apparently doing it through good fortune rather than any absolute as- Eurance on his part that he will mol be the next victim. Those who go into inc air, needless of the danger and persist in doing hair-raising stunts for the fame and remuneration, find that death comes quicker and will last longer
 The death Of Miss Quimby and her 1 Passenger. W. A. p. Willard raises the fist of dead aviators to 158. She gained international fame in short time, be- ing the first woman to cross the Eng lish channel. but she failed e profit from the lessons of the past.

IDEAS OF A PLAIN MAN

Did you ever stop to think what a lot of things you keep on doing for no reason at all, or for the silly reasons that you always have done them or that everybody else does them?
 Why, for instance, do you wear hat, or a stiff collar? Why do you con fine your feet all summer in uncom- forta.ble leather air tight castings Why do you go on living with disagreeable people? Why do you eat when you are not hungry, and eat what you don't like? Why do you go on working for money when you have money enough? Why do you keep up acquaintance with and devote time to people who bore you? Why do you attend lec- lures?
 Professor Ross in his book, The Changing Chinese" gives us some Chi nese traits it will do us good to think on. The river junk has a big eye paint ed on either side of the prov so that the boat may look see' it's way. They have never inquired whether these op- tical craft fare better than others.
 Just inside the doorway of the court yard a brick screen is built in order that the viewless demons of the air may collide disastrously with it when they seek to enter the domicile. To no one has it occurred to mark wheth- CT families without such screens have worse luck than other families.
 Tn a word the Chinese have never accepted the principle of efficiency, which is, that means to be chosen for q given purpose should be those which actually. surely, promptly and econom- icalIy produce the required results.
 But what about us Is not most of our life spent in initiating others, and following irrational customs? Isn't do- ing as one pieases tbout the hardest thing in the world to do?

TIE ARMY APPROPRIATION.

After consideration of the army appropriation bill. which was vetoed by President Taft, Chairman Hay of the committee on military affairs has reported another to the house, and there is no doubt that this will pass without trouble. The new bill is the same as the old one, barring the fact that it does not contain any legisIa- ton concerning the chief of the staff of the army It was on this point that the veto was given and it was found that the necessary two-thirds vote to override the presidents veto could not be secured. The provision concerning Gen Leonard Wood was a piece of leg islat0n which it was intended should be put through without mentioning any names. but so constructed that he would end his service next March be- cause he stands for economy and more efficiency in the administration of the departmental affairs.
 The elimination of the rider removes the trouble which was inserted in the vetoed bill in conference and avoided the necessary discussion and debate which if should receive with an expla- nation of why requirements were de- manded of an official impossible for him to meet, after he has held the of- flee for a term of years. It was sly method of legislation and we'll it is that it failed. It is believed that other riders in important appropriation bills win receive a similar fate if not elim- mated

WILSON GETS NOMINATION.

At a time when the weary delegates were about ready to give up in despair the democrats at Baltimore broke the deadlock and things went just as Bry- an wanted them to- He thoroughly routed his opponent after an eight day battle by his persistent fight and against great odds. The credit of the stampede. however. can hardly be claimed by Bryan. since they had failed to mako the rush when he most earn esuy desired it. but it bears the print of the westerners quiet work. Through out the convention there has been a strong leaning toward Wilson as the man who could unite the party. The bad feature of his candidacy to many of the delegates. was the backing it re- ceived from Bryan. Once it was made plain that Bryan could not force or lead the delegates to Wilson, they took their time, and at the proper moment Illinois made the break which started the rush. It was impossible to check the hustle to the band wagon. and the mighty New York delegation, which has played such a vacillating part in the convention, joined in the vote, though Bryan spurned them
 Like the long drawn out conven- tions of the past when the selection was evident it was quickly accomplish cd. The effort to make Clark the vice presidential nominee was born of wis dom for such would have welded to- gether the party forces, but it was beyond the expectation of the most sanguine. Clark would hardly be ex- pected to humiliate himself by taking second place after such a bitter con test and t is but natural that he would prefer the speakership to the yice-presidency. The time for such compromise was early in the conven- ton, if at ali.

THE BULLETINS SHORT STORY.
HE HAD SUFFERED

got started on one of his cycles of thought relating to the woman vocal ist. They were always glad when Dilkins got interested in anything else to take his mind off his troubles
 Therefore, the most captious could not blame him for his frank interest in Miss Miller the night she came to the card club to which Dilkins belonged. Miss Miller was slight and doll like and as bright as she was pretty, Dil- kins simply elbowed the other men out of the way and appropriated her in a most high handed fashion. If she hao eaten all the various things Dilkins hunted out and pressed upon her al supper she would have expired on the spot.
 Dilkins did not observe the nervous demeanor of Smith and Jones, two or his best friends, who watched his pro gress with Miss Miller anxiously with pale faces. When Dilkins chanced to mention where he lived Smith clapped a hand to his brow and leaned against the wall, but Jones bent forward breathlessly.
 "Oh." cried Miss Miller, gazing wide eyed into Dilkins adoring face, do you live there? So do I'm staying with my cousins, the Benkses, while I'm taking vocal lessons. I've often wondered if I disturbed anybody in the building with my practicing?"
 Jones closed his eyes and waited for all the things to happen to Miss Miller that Dilkins had promised furiously during the past winter. What he heard was this Is honeyed tones:
 Disturb anybody? I should say not! Why, I'm delighted to have a chance to tell you how I've enjoyed your voice-it is beautiful! Chicago News.
