TOOK kim" FROM REAL LIFE
Wrote Of Traced by an Editor
of India.

What pity that Kipling does not
witnessed! He could have described
scenes of Indian life that continually
passed under his notice. He might
have entered the massive palaces OF
pompous rajahs and the humble homes
OF the povertystricken peasants and
told us In his wonderful language
what he saw there. Instead he has
spoken indifferently Of what he heard.
Kipling had such wonderful oppor.
tunities!
For instance, take the story or
Kim. The character Of Kim has
been treated in similar way to that
Of Hamlet. According to Mr.. Lord,
the editor of Darjeeling newspaper,
the Pail Mall, Kim Is no other than
Tim Doolan, Jr. Shortly after the So
called Indian mutiny of 1857 COM
pany of British soldiers were garri-
soned on the dreary, sunless heights
of Seneshall, peak of the Himalayas,
not far from Darjeeling. There the
sun shines on an average Of three
days 6. year, and there romantic
Irish sergeant fell in love with beau
tiful Tibetan girl.
The sergeant's name was Tim Doo-
Ian. He eloped with the Tibetan
beauty and crossed the border to live
with her people on the borderland.
Nothing more was heard Of Sergeant
Doolan for another 20 years, when his
son, Tim Doolan, Jr., was arrested in
the market place of Darjeeling for muir.
der. Young Dooian was very fair in
complexion, with blue Irish eyes and
red hair, although he spoke only tt
betan The British authorities looked
him over suspiciously and wondered
at the Irish type and Irish name.
Later, papers belonging to Tim Doo-
Ian, the sergeant, establishing the
origin and identity of the son, were
found on the accused who, like Kim,
valued the papers as charm. The
sergeant's rifle and side-arms were
also found afterward in Doolan's hut.
The half-caste son was executed for
murder. The story is well known all
over India, and from such frail mate
rial Kipling created Kim.
But Kipling is not an authority on
India, or other things Indian. He Is
only writer of the life of foreigners
in India-not of Indian life.-A. r.

with Mr.. Rosenberg as coach, an eX-

course, which is designed as special
preparation for actual business life.

really big INSTITUTIONS of the country.
A big factor in. the schools pro-

delightful time in his life. He was
proud to ride into a new garrison at
the head of his squadron and it was
generally said in the regiment that the
officers in his squadron had the best
time of any. He was hospitable to a
high degree and none the less so after
his marriage with the Princess Zita of
Parma, who is just as well liked as
her husband.
When she accompanied him to his
garrison she came as a simple junior
officers wife and not as an arch
duchess. She went and called upon
the wives of all the officers senior in
rank to the archduke instead of wait
ing for them to call upon her She
took the greatest interest, not only in
regimental affairs, but also in the in
habitants of the country districts
where the regiment was stationed and
became greatly beloved by the Jews in
one of the small garrisons in Galicia
She went out among the people there
and talked to the children and gave
them little gifts such as no officers
wife had ever done before.
But so long as Francis-F Ferdinand
was living the young couple were left
in the background. With two small
babies to look after the Archduchess
Zita was quite content that it should
be so. and was not at all anxious to
become involved in the intrigues ap-
parently inseparable from the daily
life at most courts, and certainly at
the court of Vienna. But under the
changed circumstances it is expected
that she will assume her rightful place
as the first lady at court, a position
now held by the Archduchess Maria
Annunciata.
The emperor intends that the new
heir shall lose no time in taking his
place. In all probability the Archduke
Carl Francis Joseph will be advanced
rapidly in the army, while spending
most of his time in familiarizing him
self with political and administrative
affairs. Special instructors, including
highly placed officials, already have
been nominated to inform the new
heir apparent in technical matters re-
lating to the government and he will
be gradually initiated into the most
important affairs of state.

Northern Arizona Normal school has
taken that task to heart, and, under
the splendid leadership of its ear
nest and able president, DIR. Blome,
has seriously set itself to the prob
lem of training real teachers for our
public schools. That it is gloriously
succeeding is not questioned by any
one acquainted with the school,
The first thing that strikes the at
tention of the visitor at this normal
school is the air of busy activity
about the buildings. Closer acquaint-
ance proves this activity to be very
hearty and good natured. Perhaps
the most striking thing about the
Northern Arizona Normal school is
the natural, spontaneous life of its
students. 1t is much like big home,
where teachers and students mingle
as sort of large family, devoted for
the time being to educational pur-
suits.
Most Of the students live in the
pleasant well regulated dOrmitories.

In regard to the work offered at the
Northern Arizona Normal School. it
is matter Of Importance to say that
every effort is made to offer the stu
| dent those things that will best de-
Ivelop him, first, into an round
man; second. into a good teacher. In
| doing this, the school seeks to cor
relate as much as possible the estab-
/ lished academic studies with the
newer technical training in the prac-
| teal things of life.
Manual training, agriculture and
domestic science, under the direction
of skilled teachers, have become es-
tablished in the school curriculum,
and few students complete their
courses without at least an elemen-
tary knowledge of these practical
subjects.
A new departure for the coming
year is the introduction of CONNER
cial training. The special work in
this department will be conducted by
a competent and experienced instruc-
tor. Typewriting, bookkeeping and
shorthand, together with special bust
ness English, will be essentials
taught in the fourth year of the COM
mercial course. The object of this
course will be to prepare students
for practical business pursuits.
Students who do not plan to teach
and are not looking forward to col
lege training will find this work in
business education of great value.

tine, there are two literary societies

whole country believed it to be wrest-

Great Britain will take up arms in
support of her partners in the triple
entente.
No statement was made concerning
the deliberations except that an an
nouncement will be made in the
house of commons on Monday.
The government took three meas
ures for defense today. none of them
inconsistent with the policy of re-
naming outside the conflict, if that
should be her policy. The naval re-
serves and naval marines pensioners
were called out by proclamation and
the territorials, who had just assem-
bled at the training camps for annual
practice, were ordered back to their
headquarters. The home secretary
prohibited air flights over the entire
kingdom and territorial waters, ex-
cept by military craft. All these
measures were purely defensive.
The French embassy received the
following message from NJ. Viviano,
the French premier:
Il have just sent the following
telegram to the French minister at
Luxembourg: Will you inform the
premier that in conformity with the
treaty in London of 1867 the govern
ment of the republic intends to re-
spect the neutrality of Luxembourg,
as shown by her attitude. The vio-
lation of neutrality by Germany is
of such nature as to oblige France
to take into account the care Of her
defense and her interests.
"oThis neutrality was established by
the treaty negotiated and signed in
London, May 80, 1867. Article II Of
it reads as follows: r
1.-The grand duchy of Luxembourg
will be a state perpetually neutral"
1.-THE powers which sign the pres
ent treaty declare themselves as
bound to respect this neutrality and
TO make it respected by others. This
neutrality is placed under the guar
antee of powers which have signed
the treaty."
continuing the statement, the en-
bassy says: :.
THE British ambassador at Berlin
asked the German secretary or state
for foreign affairs whether Germany
was prepared to respect the neutrality
of Belgium.

able to answer.
