An orphan mongrel cur having for
the first time in 500 years got enough
spunk up to take his tail from between
his legs, begins to wag it and feel
growing pains. Along comes a great
big dog and says
Put that tail down-and gimme
that bone"
We see this sort of thing nearly ev-
ery day
Once upon time little old Servia
was an empire and very nearly over
came the Byzantine empire, which
probably would have changed the
whole of European history. There
might have been no Turkey in Europe.
That was in the fourteenth century,
under the mighty Dushan.
Explains Austria's Action.
Seryia is now poor, wretched little
peasant kingdom-not half as big as
Illinois in size, with less people than
the city of New York.
And now the house of Hapsburg

Even though the process involve
more lives and money than any war
of any time!
That is the life. You or l in the
house of Hapsburg's shoes would do
the same thing. 1t is the law of exist
ence. Nature works today as in the
stone age or when saber-toothed tiger
fought with mastodon.
Why does Austria-Hungary, the Dual
Monarchy, want poor peasant Servia?
Hasn't the Dual Monarchy, with its in
ternal babel of confusion. enough
trouble already?
Why Others Are Interested.
Suppose the Dual Monarchy does
want Servia, what is it to Russia?
Suppose Russia does object what is
ject's to Russias Directing. what bust
ness is it of France-or of England?

alton. And right here let US clearly
recognize the fact-two facts;
The contest is not economic but psy
Geological in its fundamental nature;
psychologist laws are not economic
laws.
To put it another way, the desires
which lead to action in eastern Eu-
rope are not based on Christian eth
les or rational procedure, but on GER
tain thoughts.
Things are what we think they are;
and thinking depends on the point of
view.
Illustrating the Point.
Pan-Germanism VS.. Pan-Slavism. If
! we understand this, we have travelled
far. First, let me give an illuminat-
ing illustration:
In Prague, an important city Of Aus
tria, was warned that l would get
along much better in shops and other
wise If l employed English first. OF
course English is not generally under
stood in that city, but German is. We
naturally think of German as the Ian
guage of Austria. and proud as the
ancient capital of Bohemia was once,
to all intents and purposes German
city, she now tries to forget and won't
talk German If she can possibly help 1t.
Pan means united, all; the term pan
Germanism stands for a movement
which seeks the common welfare of
the Germanic peoples of Europe at the
expense of pan-Slavism or common
veal of Slavs.
Becomes Question of Tongues.
Before we can understand the sig
nif1cance of these two movements we
must consider the question of the ma
tionals," or the Races" as 1t Is some
times called
In fact, this is not a question either
Of nations or Of races, but of tongues.
The classification of mankind by
tongues Is ancient and fundamental.

NEW YORK, Aug. s.-Stories of double
crossing and frameups continue to reach
these shores from Europe, and the inn
preston grows daily that the recent bat
tie between Jack johnson and Frank
Moran furnished the worst blow that the
boxing game has suffered In some years
That ell connected with the affair were
on most friendly terms before the bout
was staged was evident through the
method OF arranging the bout. That all
have since had falling out Ia equally
certain from the numerous charges and
counter charges that are flying back and
forth.
Three different versions Of the alleged
fake have come to these shores The
first, which was announced for the osten-
sible purpose OF proving that Moran had
done his best against the negro, was the
story OF double cross. II was to the
effect that Johnson had insisted on
Moran being knocked OUT by him in
the eighth round before he would agree
to a match with the Pittsburgher. Then
came the denial from Johnson. with the
counter charge that he had TO make an
agreement whereby Moran would be al
lowed TO stay the entire twenty rounds,

lived up to his agreement rather than re-

is excellent. Reports from Texas indi-
cate that the largest acreage yet put in
cotton will be planted this year. Farm
ers have been favored by weather and
are making very good progress in prep
aration of the soil. Heavy rains have
put good season in the ground and
current reports are OF the most favor
able character.
The New Orleans Times Democrat
says: THE bulls got a few crumbs of
comfort from yesterdays news, but liV-
ing on crumbs is hard work. Some
$4,000 bales were burned at Clinton,
Texas and this amount win have to be
deducted from the Houston stock, but
the destruction of ten times the GUAM
tity would not suffice to stir the trade in
It's present mood. SO, too, further rise
of 3-16 in Consols made no impression
at all. though the persistent advance in
the premier security must be taken
to mean better conditions in world
finance. and there have been years when
such a change would have famed spec
ulation into flame. But things are diff
ferent now. How long will they remain
different? That is the question.
In the meanwhile the remnant of
the crop is moving to the spindle with
rush. Intending buyers of contracts
are frightened off by the fear of get
ting low grades which may be difficult
for sale, but the advices Indicate that
the poorer qualities have found a level
at which they are attractive to con-
sumers.

est in New Orleans ought to remove

son. Most conservative operators be
lieve the rings will keep quiet till an
other million bales shall have been con-
verted into yarns. At the present rate
of consumption three or four weeks
should suffice for this purpose. But the
trade will be wrestling with the prob
lem of the new crop, four weeks hence,
and the speculative public may fight
shy of the. new crop as it fights shy
of the old"
