KEPT HIS coUNTENANCE WELL
Chauffeur of the Late General Booth
Evidently Man Of Supreme
VIII Power.

Of the late General Booths en-
tourage on his motor car tours one
of the most interesting personalities
was his stolid, lean-faced chauffeur.
During the roadside services which
he started at Lands End, Cornwall,
on his first motor trip through Eng
land the general would place his
hands on the back of the drivers
seat, but as he warmed to his sub
iect he clutched the shoulders OF the
chauffeur and used the fiat surface
of the mans cap as other preachers
use the pulpit ledge, tapping on II
with his knuckies to drive home his
points. The way the chauffeur KEPT
his countenance during those mo-
ments of extraordinary publicity wa
a triumph of stoicism; with his tw'
hands on the wheel, he stared stead
| ily at the bonnet of his car, a mon
ument of immobility, the only pei
son within hearing of the sermon o
whom the generals burning word
! had no apparent effect.

Wrapped up In Their Own Ideas
They Refuse to Recognize Any
Change In the Times.

Az the philosopher is apt to fail
In the routine Of political life, 50
the ordinary statesman is also apt to
fail in extraordinary crises. When
the face Of the world is beginning to
alter. and thunder is heard in the
distance, he is still guided by his old
maxims. and is the slave to his in
veterate party prejudices, he cannot
perceive the signs Of the times; in
stead of looking forward he looks
back; he learns nothing and forgets
nothing; with "wise saws and mod
ern instances" he would stem the ris-
| ing tide of revolution. He lives more
| and more within the circle OF his
own party, as the world without him
becomes stronger. This seems to be
the reason why the old order Oh
things makes SO poor figure when
confronted with the new, why
churches can never reform, why
most political changes are made
blindly and convulsively. The great
crises in the history Of nations have
often been met by an ecclesiastical
positiveness, and a more obstinate
reassertion of the principles which
have lost their hold upon the nation
The fixed ideas of reactionar.

One Of the most potent arguments
against the construction OF the
canal at Panama, in the days When
the building of this work by the
Unitet1Statcs was under discussion,
was the frightful number of fatall-
ties which were supposed to have at
teasFd the construction Of the Pana-
MAJ railroad in the middle of the
nineteenth century. GA dead man
for each cross tie" was a favorite
theme with the magazine writer and
the politician. Gen. George w. Da-
Wis, u. S. A., first governor OF the
canal zone, has exploded this time
honorcd story by showing that
whereas the number of ties amount
ed1k& 100000, the road never EN-
ployed, during its five years of con
struction, more than 1000 laborers
In its first four years of operation
the railroad carried 10000 passen
gers, not one of whom contracted
illness as the result of crossing tn
isthmus.

AN ENvIABLE RECORD.

Molly Elliot Seawell, whose new book.
'The Son of Columbus" has lust been
published by Harper & Brothers, has a
unique record among writer's as a prize
winner. She has entered three big com.
petitions, and in each one has won a
prize. The remarkable part of it is that
in every case she was the only woman
who won anything, although thousands
OF women competed. The first was in a
contest instituted by the "Youth's Com.
panion" in 1890 for the best Juvenile
short story. This was the beginning of
Miss Seawell's literary career. She
offered her story, Little Jarvis, {"
which was awarded the first prize in
merit, although, as it was. based on a
historic incident, she was given the
second prize in money, five hundred dol
lars. In this competition there were
over two thousand competitors. All of the
other prize-winners were men. Again.
in 1895, when she was beginning to be
known in literature, she entered into a
competition for prize of three thousand
dollars offered by the New York "Her-
ald." In this competition there were
over one-thousand contestants. Again.
Miss Seawell won the first prize with her
story. ''The Sprightly Romance of
Marsac. The other winners were all
men. In the autumn of 1908, in response
to an invitation extended by the New
York HERALD to forty selected writer's
to compete for a prize. Miss Seawell
entered and won prize of one thousand
dollars with short story, "John Main
Warlng, Financier. Three other prizes
were won by well-known short-story
writers. Once more, Miss Seawell was
the only woman to receive recognition.

FARM DEMONSTRATION WORK
10 be Begun in Four Maine Counties

To be Begun in Four Maine Counties.
Wallace Buttrick, secretary of the
General Education Board. has made three
visits to the University of Maine. On
MS last visit, which occurred Monday,
oct. TN, arrangements were completed
by which the General Education Board
furnishes money to carry on farming
demonstrations. The money furnished
is ample to pay for four directors. -Four
men, nominated by the University of
Name and approved by the secretary of
the General Education Board will be put
in the field. Each man will be in charge
OF the farm demonstration work in a
single county. 1t is hoped to start the
next farming season with at least one
hundred and fifty farmers engaged in
demonstrations under expert direction.
At present the work will start upon
four lines truck garden farming. fruit
growing, farming for dairying purposes.
and growing potatoes and grain crops.
The work has been carried on in manv
of the States of the south for number
OF years under the cooperative direction
OF the General Education Board and the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The results obtained there have
been OF very great value. 1t is, indeed,
fortunate for Maine that the board has
turned its attention toward our State.
1t will enable the University to reach
out and help the farming interests of the
State in more complete way than it has
been able to do heretofore. A little
later complete and detailed program
will be announced
