MUNICIPAL DOCKS PROPOSED
AT CITIZENS MASS MEETING.
Bond Issue Suggested as Way to FL
nance Construction OF New
Docks.

Jacksonville.-The city of Jackson
vile is planning the construction OF
municipal docks at that port. The
plan, revised by the board OF port
commissioners, is for the issuance OF
bonds to the amount of $1,000, 600.
A mass meeting was recently held
in that city when representatives Oh
various trade and commercial organi-
cations advanced their views as 10
the selecting of dock site.
1t is the belief of large NUMBER OF
the business men that the future de-
velopments of the city as a port and
the business interests of the city Will
be greatly aided by the construction
of municipal docks.
There are some who propose that
the new docks be located on the site
of the Soldiers Home, while others
have petitioned the board of port COM
missioners to defer the matter OF the
selecting of a site until the bonds
provided for that purpose shall have
been sold and those who have not
already appeared before the board can
do so for the purpose of recommend
ing their selection of a site.

HEAR COURT TRIALS AT HOME
With Necessity for Actual Pres
ence During Proceedings.

Bench and Bar makes the follow
ing comment on an instrument de-
scribed as the ''themisophone :"
''It is said that in the new build
ings of the Palais de Justice in Paris
an instrument called the Fthemiso-
phone has been installed, by means
of which all telephone subscribers
will be enabled, for a small fee, to
hear all court proceedings in their
homes. Some of the French newspa-
pers express approval of the plan, as
tending to secure increased diligence
and impartiality, and an enlarged
sense of responsibility on the part of
the judges, due to a consciousness of
the fact that the ears of all Paris
may be listening not only to the ar
guments of counsel, but the rulings
and instructions of the court. At all
events, this arrangement will give
counsel a larger audience, so that the
innovation may be welcomed by a bar
which is rigidly restrained from some
of the publicity methods not deemed
inexcusable by the ethical standards
of some of our American cities.

SEES HANDICAP IN MEEKNESS.
Way 1t May Be Assumed to
Be Blessed.

The other day | met man with a
hard lack story. In order to reduce
expenses his firm was cutting sala-l
ries. This mans had been cut In
half.
"You threw the offer at them?" I
asked.
'No, how could II"
'Then you practically admitted
that you were only worth the lower
salary?"
"No, but what could I do?"
What could he do? Good lands !!
What would you do if that happened
to you? | know what I'd do! I'd
throw the offer in their teeth and get
my hat and coat and get out if [ had
to get a wheelbarrow and peddle shoe
strings. I'd go around to another
firm and ask them to start me in at
the lower wage until | made good.
No man has to eat humble pie unless
he isn't fit for anything better. The
man who stands for cut in his sal
,ary stands for something worse. 1t
means that the path to success is
closing against him and that the
chance of a future raise is mighty
slim.
Oh, yes, there may be wife and
children, but if they do have to eat
dry bread for while it won't kill
them. The man who has grit enough
to refuse reduction in salary won't
have to struggle long before he's on
his feet again. 1t shows that the
pioneer spirit within him is still
strong and that he still has some
fight left. Blessed are the meek, but
New York is no place for them.-

YOUNG AS THEY FEEL.

Two examples of vigor laughing
at advancing years are in the newer
life. Who would think of saying of
Bishop Greer that he was anything
but seventy years young? He is
surely not old, in spite of the rec
ord of his seventy summers. As for
President Eliot, after his trip around
the world and active occupation with
many interests of supreme impor-
tance he begins his eighty-frst year
with vigor that promises many fur
ther years of useful life. Mental oc-
cupations and administrative respon-
sibilities of the highest kind have
proved for these two men, as for ev
eryone who takes life calmly yet
fully, only the opportunities for the
exercise of copious activity without
suspicion of exhaustion of power.

LOSING POWER TO IMAGINE
Modern Mental Habits Are Leading
People OF To-day Away From Paths
That Reached High Ideals.

Our modern mental habit is over
whelmingly habit of analysis, for
which science, in teaching US to pick
the world to bits, is partly, though
not wholly responsible. 1t has
brought US an immense amount of
interesting information; it has
brought also a danger whose gravity
we can estimate in the constant les
sening of the synthetic power. The
power to imagine, to fashion high
ideals, and to create along the line of
the imagining, is weakening, instead
of growing more strong. In the glo-
rious days of Queen Elizabeth, in the
unparalleled days of Periclean Ath-
ems great ideals formed themselves
before mems eyes and great achieve
ments followed; emotion, hope,
vision, shaped human nature to great
issues. I wonder what influence
those perfect marble representations
of perfect form had upon the very
bodies of the youths and the maidens
of Athens, what creative force they
exercised-the imaginative grasp of
the perfect reaching forward toward
perfectness in the human being. |
wonder what influences the charac-
ter of Sir Philip Sidney alone, with
'high-erected thoughts seated in
heart of courtesy" has had upon sue
ceeding generations of English
youth. GA man to be greatly good,
