 The redtop will probably do we'll on the moist land. but the orchard grass is not likely to do so.

 The Saxons were the first ci our modern nations to req iz" that the right of a king was not super for to the rights of the individual For that idea they struggle through centuries with their Nor. man conquerors until finally the supremacy of the individual was recognized. The United States, a product of that English civil ization when abhOrrence to the idea of the divine rights of kings was in it's ascendancy, began its governmental career with the great declaration of the equality of all men.
 The wisdom of those singers of the Declaration and the framers of the Constitution has been vim dicated by the progress.this coun- try has made in the history of nations.

without criticism. Our age is al so and excuse for not doing the things We do not want to do.
 We are free to accept any DO stion for Which we are fitted as the conventions which surround the young do not affect us.
 Do we care to travel, we are as free to penetrate the farthest corners of earth as a man.
 We are comparatively free of fashions dictates. The middle aged woman, as she and all the world knows. may be the subject of interest or friendly specula,- ion, hut not of amorous glances.
 If We be married we have pass ed the period of adjusting our selves to the cares of home -mak- ing and the household machinery runs fairly smoothly.
 Moreover. the children are getting to an age at which they are a help rather than a care. They keep the house cheerful and prevent our gettidg in rut and their companionship keeps the us young, or does if we make companions of them.
 If we be not married, and some of us are not, we give up thinking of every man as a pos sible suitor and We settle down to comfortable friendships.
 Moreover we can have men friends without their a P { y making them think we are coquetting. We can be as charm ing as we please without their suspecting we want to marry them.
 The confidence we get from youths and maidenS, men and women and the help we can be to them in strengthening their tangles gives our hearts warm glow because they make us feel we are needed.
 We are worth talking to. A young girl is inspired after he fist few minutes of conversat- 10 }, as a rule. We have humOr, a fund of information, opinions on most subjects and. what is more, the freedom to discuss them.
 The young woman is either elate l by the success of love or depressed by its inability to satisfy. We take love and other sentiment calmly and have found the world is so full of a rumt CT of things. Pm sure we should all be as happy as kings.
 Our power is unlimited. Let votes come for women if they will, but the influence of cne vote is nothing to the far-reach- ing effect of an idea planted here. a suggestion there, making life pleasant to this clean young man, helping this misguided youth and maiden to see they are mak- ing fools of themselves, helping the tired little mother to get a rest. soothing the minister into a philosophical state of mind all these things and many more are in our power.

Offices Did Not Know
Liners Whereabouts
BY Assocfnted Prcss


New York, Aug. 4.-The Kron-
prinzessin Cecilie is the finest ship of
the North German Lloyd fleet News
of her safe arrival at Bar Harbor was
received at the line offices here in a
telegram from Captain Polack. Until
his message was received the line was
apparently in the dark as to the yes
sells movements since steaming out
of New York harbor
The gold aboard the vessel, more
than ten million dollars, was consigned
by New York bankers to London and
Paris. Officers of one of the great in
ternational banks concerned said to-
day that the metal would now prob
ably be landed at Bar Harbor and
returned to New York by express.
Officials of the line said the CeciIie
had not been ordered back to port
from this side of the Atlantic and
that If any instructions had been re-
ceived by Captain Polack they must
have come from Bremen.
Officials of one of the big banks
here which was shipping more than
$3,000,000 in gold on the liner, ex-
pressed great disappointment over her
return. Some of them said frankly
that they would have been glad if the
vessel had been. captured by the
French. In such an event, they
thought, the French captors would
have seen to it that the metal reached
its destination. Arrangements were
being made to-day for the return of
the gold to New York. Apparently all
efforts to have 1t shipped on any other
vessel have been abandoned.

Kronprinzessin Cecilie Wins in
Race When Her Seizure Was
Imminent
STEALS INTO PORT AT NIGHT
Captain Polack Is Hero of Greatest
Sea Prize Ever Open to
Capture
BY Associated Press

Bar Harbor, Maine, Aug. 4-The
North German Lloyd steamer Kron-
prinzessin Cecelie, carrying more than
S10,00O,00O IN gold and whose where
abouts have been more or less of a
mystery since she sailed from New
York last Tuesday, arrived in the har-
Dor here to-day.
The Cecilie dropped anchor here at
6 o'clock this morning after a forced
run of four days, her officers fearing
capture
With a cargo of ten millions in gold
and million in silver consigned to
French and English harbors, with an
estimated value of over five millions
in herself, the Kronprinzessin Cecilie
has constituted PROBABLY the finest sea
prize ever open to capture.
She crept along the Maine coast and
into the harbor under the cover of
night. Every portfolio was blanketed
with canvas so that not a gleam of
light betrayed here whereabouts. Her
ear stacks had been tipped with black
paint so that she resembled an Eng
lish steamship.
Capture Was Close
At one time capture seemed immi-
nent. Captain Charles Polack report
ed on Sunday that he had intercepted
a wireless message from one French
vessel to another giving warning of the
Cecilie's proximity, but under fog
she escaped.
The Kronprinzessn Cecilie left New
York last Tuesday morning bound for
Bremen via Plymouth and Cherbourg.
She had $50 first-class, 1870 second
class and 736 steerage passengers.
Friday night while a dance was in
progress one of the passengers no.
ticed that the position of the moon
had unaccountably shifted to the port
side of the ship. Before the signif-
canoe of this was realized the captain
called the men into the smokingroom.
