AMERICAS VERDICT IN
 THE TITANIC DISASTER.

There is little the public did not al ready know in the report of the senate committee that investigated the ri tanic disaster But it puts the facts in the case in concrete form for use in whatever new maritime legisla tion may be needed and places the blame for the catastrophe with its terrible loss of life, where it unques tionably belongs. Further than tlis it is the verdict of the American na ton
 Recklessness and blunderins are. ir brief. the indictments brought against the owners. builders, officers and crew of the Titanic. And they are amply backed hy indusputable facts There were not enough lifeboats. The crew was not trained in handling them They were sent away from the sinking ship only partially filled. The bulk he2ds, supposed to be watertight were no; watertight. The ship was rushed at top speed through a sea ir wEich its officers knew there were ice floas ard icebergs,
 The world will accept the judgment of the senate committee regardless Of whatever statement may be made by the British board of trade as the result of the investigation it is making The beard is in a position where il must either seek to vindicate itseli O. condemn itself. for the owners ot the Titanic arc taking refuge behind the obsolete and insufficient reg lla tiOns it still adheres to as an excuse for their shortcomings. From the na tue of questions being asked in the board investigation, the conclusion is warranted that it is seeking to jus tify itself
 Put as the chairman of the senate committee says Eve shall leave to tEc honest judgment of England its chas tisement Of the board Of trade. tC whose laxity Of regulation and hasty inspection the world is largely in debted for this awful fatality"

ALWAYS BE POLITE


 Every once in a while something occurs which leads the wandering mind oi mortal man back to the ever. lasting truth that it pays to be DO lite. You may not think it pays at the time, but man gets what he gives out in this world and the law of compensation is seldom violated. Just the other day citizen of New York found this out. He once handed a man a glass of water in a hospital when the latter needed the water bad ly. and when the man died he left the New York citizen $1,146,S26. With this case in mind one should follow the appended set of general rules.
 When a fleshy old gentleman stops upon yorr corn while climbing into his seat at the theater and then stands on it for a minute or two while nod ding to an acQuaintance in the rear ot the house, do not call him an anti quatad bonehead, or an ivory beaned old galoCt but smile upon him gra- ciously and offer him the other foot to step on. Make a few pleasant re- marks about the weather and ask after the state of health of his family. Ahih f-o OuA anu bIg HiH d DOQutA of violets and present it to him.
 If aa old lady with square spec. tacles who looks as though she might have money, sticks an umbrella point in your eye, lift your hat politely and ask her if she won't have an ice cream soda.
 If q gentleman in the train piles his baggage in your seat while you are in the smoker, give him a good cigar and sit on the floor.
 If a man runs you down with an automobile and breaks all of your ribs anG one of the lamps on his car, send him a new lamp and a bOquet of American beauties as soon as you are out of the hospital.
 There are thousands of occasions of this kind of which you may take advantage and which may pan out well. Nnu never can tell just who is going to die and leave money or jusr whom they are going to leave it to-

WASHINGTON, D. C.. June A. William Barnes. Jr, of Albany, N. Y, arch ehemy of Theodore Roosevelt, has beeh picked by Director Mckinley of the national Taft bureau. to take command Of the Taft forces upon the floor of the Chicago convention
 The job of floor leader is one of great importance, and Mckinley looked long before he finally settled upCn Barnes. The sort of man needed is one who thoroughly knows the etiquette of a rough political con ventiOn. one who will take up the work with enthusiasm and never falter in the Lattle. Such a man is William Barnes, IT,, end Taft is thoroughly pleased with the selection.
 Two years ago Barnes and Roose- vet led opposing factions in the New | York state republican convention The ! fight Was hot one. but Roosevelt came of victor. In fact, to use the colonels own words, he beat to a | frazZle" the faction led by Barnes Since that convention Barnes has been | itching to get even with the rough rider. Now. he thinks. is his chance. He will fight as he never fought be fore at Chicago. Hence the president s delight at the selection.
 Not only has the important duty of floor leader in the convention been assigned 10 Barnes He has been given charge of the Taft delegates from the southern states with view to keep ing them secure in the Taft pastures
 This is an important task as a strong
 effort will doubtless be made by the
 Roosevelt men to get a lot of the
 southern brethren who are supposedly for Taft.

 What ails that man." said the city salesman. "I made an appointment with him for one o'clock tomorrow, and he asked me if meant American time. It ought to be obvious that am not making an appointment in New York for Madrid time"
 Don't grumble," said friend. That question was a guarantee of good faith on his part Every fresh arrival from Latin countries asks that when he really wishes to be prompt in his engagements. Left to his own devices he would do as everybody does at home and come struggling along an hour or two late. '..:t to him American time signifies right on the spot. and hell be there"

AMERICAN MAKES
CRICKET SENSATION

MONTREAL. Canada, Aug. 2s.-ln
the last match of their Canadian
tour here yesterday the Germantown
cricketers were defeated rather easily
by Montreal by 70 run
The sensation of the match, how
ever, was provided by F. H. Trip, OF
Germantown, who performed the rare
feat of taking all ten wickets in an
inning. The feat was all the more
remarkable since he was not put on
until three other bowlers had been
tried, and the score amounted to
more than fifty. when he was given
a trial.
The match vas played on e%ocoanut
mating. and Trip managed to inn
part quite q lot of break to the ball,
and as he also bowled an extremely
good length the batsmen found him
exceedingly difficult to play. His
wickets were obtained at a cost of
90 runs, and When the Montreal in
nings was brought to a close he "a
warmly congratulated on his feat.
