WOULD HAVE SUNDAYS DULL
British Member of Parliament Sees
Mistake In Nonobservanee Of
the Sabbath.

Il think Sunday ought to remain
what some people call dull" said J.
Ramsay Macdonald. NJ. p. speaking
ut Leicester. He appealed to religious
institutions to see that Sunday is not
secularized. People talked a lot OF
nonsense about the Scottish Sabbath,
and did not know what they were
talk!ns about. If they were only
trained to appreciate the Scottish Sab
bath-it would take some amount OF
trainingthe would not be sorry II
they had II. 2
All the talk about turning Sunday
into a day OF recreation was humbug
and dangerous. In trying to do it
they were beginning at the wrong end
of the stick. They should not sacri-
flee the blessings they had got
He looked forward to the time when
everybody would have sufficient time
for recreation during the secular days
of the week. An enlightened demo-
crazy should value day of spiritual
rest so much that their hands would
be lifted up against any man or move
ment that desired to secularize the
Sunday.-London Chronicle.

goes without saying. 1t is not the
mountebank who wins the genuine
praise of the initiated, but the real wit
who has the gift of magnetism-that
is, of sympathy with what is human
and lasting-and can touch the heart
of an audience. Is it not the drama
that can move to tears that remains
on the boards the longest? And is
1t not the woman who loves her kind
who keeps their affection, who draws
people to her whether she is rich in
this worlds goods or fortune turns
its back and leaves her little resource
beyond her delightful personality?

with the same grace in her shabby,

verses allowed her-as when she had

Nor did they gather less eagerly there
than in her beautiful home, because
she retained in her poverty the same
charm, the same qualities that had
made her the most sought woman in

ton does not allow her the immense
amount Of reserve strength which Ger
many possesses, the outbreak of war
would mean the instant increase of the
held army to a strength of 1900, 900,
which might be still further increased
by the recall of troops from Algeria,
and drafts from 100000 trained reserv.
lists OF the second line.
Strength Of italian Army.
The Italian army is more or less an
unknown quantity. Its value to Aus
tria and Germany would Sonsist In its
diverting some of Frances attention
to her southern frontier. On a peace
basis. the Italian army consists of
slightly more than 100000 men. The
field army In time OF war would mus
ter nearly 100000 men, and could be
raised by drafts from the mobile mill
tia to 100000. Behind these troops
stand the territorial militia, partially
trained, forming what the French can
the tevee en- masse. more than 2,000,-
600 men. mostly of doubtful worth.
Needless to say. Great Britain is not
expected TO count for much In military
operations on land in a general Euro
pean war. Her allies would expect her
TO smash or bottle up the German
Meet, and then lend her navy to assist
France in wiping out the Austrian and
Italian squadrons In the Mediterranean
and Adriatic seas. Doubtless, several
divisions Of the so-called expeditionary
force OF the British home army could
be sent over to France. But Britain's
most efficient help would undoubtedly
consist In attempting to destroy the
German navy and mercantile marine
and in blockading the German ports
of the North sea and the Baltic.
Where 1t would all end the wisest
wiseacre could never say, ana the in
dustrial and economic havoc such a
war would wreak would probably set
the VIC I'D back half century, at least.
It's expense would run into the bill
lions, almost beyond computation. The
figures of armies given here, Il must
be remembered, except in the case Of
Italy, include only the active army
now in service, and the first and sec.
ond classes of reserves. Every coun-
try in Europe which practices con-
scription contains additional millions
of men, young and old, who are re-
garded as possible food for cannon.
Within a month between six and
twelve millions OF men might be en-
gaged.-New York Evening Pest

There will be no night fair this

A citizens committee of forty mem
bers has already partly mapped out
the program that will be followed.
This much already has been de-
cided, Bands will march about the
street OF the business sections until

be decorated, and orchestras will pre-
sent munsical programs until IL

visitors.
1t is planned to make the nightly
programs as informal as possible,
that the crowds be at liberty to wan
der wherever they desire, and will
march about the streets instead Of
being stationed at intervals.
All of the hotels probably also WIN
have orchestras stationed in their ro-

Milwaukee will maintain its reputa-
tion as a musical center.

Fish Screens illegal.
That the placing of screens in wa

is a public nuisance, was the ruling
made by Attorney General Owen to
State Fish and Game Warden John
A. Shots.
In the letter to the attorney gen.
eral Mr. Sholts says that in the south
ern part of the state certain wealthy
men from Chicago have purchased or
leased a large tract of land through
which flow numerous streams stocked
with trout. In these streams have
been placed screens to prevent the
passage of fish.
THE parties in question may be
prosecuted under the common law for
creating and maintaining public null
sance," says Mr.. Owen. There can
be no question that this is the law of
the state"
