and, struck by the beauty of the scene,
plunged his stick into the ground, de-
claring that on that spot a house must
be built for him. The structure which
arose at his command Is in the style
OF the simpler Swiss chalets. For the
most part 1t is composed of wood. and
a plainly carved balcony runs round
the upper of Its two floors. In its d.
mensions 1t is not more imposing than
an ordinary suburban villa. and all its
appointments are of the simplest de-
scription. Hundreds of antlers hang
on the walls, both within and without.
and the other principal interior mural
decorations are framed prints and
photographs, most of which have some
connection with the chase.
The furniture is plain and substan-
tial. like that Of a yeoman farmer.
Even the room in which the emperor
sleeps during his annual autumnal WIS.,

simple bedstead, waehstand. and dress
ing table. and the chief members Of
the suites he brings with him are, Of
course. no more sumptuously lodged
than their master. A corridor connects
the chalet with larger wing. where
are the kitchen. the servants rooms
and the stabling.
When the suite is at all numerous
some of its members sleep at two for
esters' houses. one of which is close to
the chalet, while the other occupies a
magnificent site on the shores of the
lovely Wherbellin lake. about a mile
distant. There is no inclosure or gar
den worthy OF the name to shut the
chalet OF from the outside world. Only

Outside the chalet, on the spot
where Frederic William w. made his

which is painted the vision Of st. Hu-

rom the Boston Transcript.


The falling off in army enlistments will
be justly regarded by those officers who
opposed the recent reserve legislation
as vindicating their Judgment that the
term of service should not be heightened.
Seven years In the army, even II three
are passed in the reserve, is not attract
i've to young Americans temporarily out
of employment. The proponents of the
reserve" project appear to have reasoned
that the British method with local modi-
fications would work well in this country,
but they began the operation at the
wrong end. Theoretically the British
soldier is held on enlistment for twelve
years and under certain conditions may
extend his life In the army to twenty-one
years. The majority, however. serve
seven years with the colors and five with
the reserve" Great Britain commuteS,
whereas we extend. and there is the diff
ference that may doom our experiment.

term service. furloughing men who had
served two out of three years of enlist
ment, was much better adapted to this
country that the British system. Army
pay extends an attraction over a much
larger area Of employment in Great Brit
ain than in the United States.

Mr.. Roosevelt Going Abroad.

The announcement that Mr.. Roosevelt
will visit Argentina In the early fall cuts
the ground from under some very pretty
speculation. This was, that, out of the
confusion existing in both parties in New
York, he might issue as the peoples can
didate for mayor and shake up the big
town nightly with one of his strenuous
appeals for popular support.
AS matters stand, regular party lines
in the municipal issues seem to have
gone. or to be going, by the board. There
are democrats loud in praise of Dis
trict Attorney Whitman a republican,
and willing to back him for mayor. There
are bull moosers more or less sweet on
John Purroy Mitchell. democrat. but
not, Of course. openly committed to the
talk Of him for mayor.
And now comes Mayor Gaynor wearing
the famous Barkis sign and, in addition
to being willin', may become eager. He

The Baltimore Platform.

There is indication that the Baltimore
platform will figure largely IN the SCH
ate's tariff debate. and not alone as re-
spects the tariff plank. Who DIRE" the
instrument? What was the Enshsn VI
the promises made? What Interpretation
was put upon those promises by the can
didate for President both in mis- speech
accepting the nomination. and, later III
his campaign speeches? What lnterpre-
tations did accredited democratic spell
binders put upon them? If one thins
WAS said here another thing there, ana
a third thing yonder, and votes were Sc
cured BY all three Of the deliverances,
what is the justification to be ofered
now in this day of the redemption OF
those promises in legislation?
This platform was prepared and adopt
ed under the usual conditions produced
at a political national convention. Ex-
element ran high Everybody was ex-
cited. But the feeling was created over
men rather than over the statement of
principles. The hullabaloo was over VIII
son, Clark. Underwood. Harmon and
Marshall, with Mr.. Bryan tidy figure
IN the background ready for business In
case OF an opening.
The platform came first, but any presi-
Dental aspirant before the convention
could have stood on it Mr.. Wilson. Mr..
Clark. Nj Underwood and Gov. Mar
shall were rated as progresssves. Mr..
Wilson won, and did not cross out or
qualify a line of the announcement Nor
would either one OF the others If NOM
mated have quarreled with It. Even Gov.
Harmon, who was stigmatiZed as a con-
sentative, and largely for that reason
made a beggarly showing in the conven-
ton. would have accepted the Platform
w;thou, hesitation and made the race on
It Indeed. as high private he did ac-
cept it. and supported Mr.. Wilson on it.
Had MI. Bryan been nominated he would
have accepted II. though he would have
been a platform IN himself.
In view of what is coming. the demo-
cratic senator's in their caucus will prob
ably take this matter under considera-
ton and prepare for the republican
hecklng. There will be men present who
served on the platform committee at
Baltimore, and should be able to throw a
white light now-only a year later-on
what took place in the committee room
what was offered. what rejected, what
accepted, and what the understanding of
the committee was of what they reported
to the convention for its consideration
and adoption.
And so We may be approaching a dis
cussion il not the solution of the famous
problem: What is a party platform be-
tween friends? How much is live. how
much dead. timber after the battle has
been won?
