81 HAD A FRIEND"
LOopyiEht, lgl.l

After Julia Ward Howe had read the
many beautiful letters of congratulation
received from her friends on one of her
birthdays she said: We'll, IL this is what
my friends think am it is what 1 must
try to De-"
What our friends think Of US expect
of US and hope OF US is a tremendous
incentive. a powerful stimulus in helping
our level best Their faith in US often
keeps us from giving up when discour-
aged, keeps US from groveling.
One OF the first thoughts that comes
to us when discouraged and tempted to
play the coward, to turn back and give
up what we have undertaken, is What
will our friends think OF u.s." Then, like
Bunyon, We put our burden pack on
our back again and trudge on. We can
not bear to disappoint the friends who
believe in US, those who think We amount
to something; We cannot bear to dis
appoint their pride in US, their expec-
tation. their hope of our future.
There are multitudes Of people who are
now successful who would have given
up years ago, and have Joined the great
failure army but for the thought OF dis
appointing those who appreciate US,
who help to build up instead of destroy
ing our self-confidence, double our power
Of accomplishment. In their presence We
feel strong and equal to almost any task.
This was one OF the great secrets Of
Phillips Brooks marvellous power. Filled
with an intense belief in mans possibil-
tiles, he aroused many a mediocre youth
to a realization of the strength that
lay dormant within him, made him feel
almost a giant in his presence, and in
spired him to do things of which he
would not otherwise have believed him
self capable. He had the happy faculty
of awakening people to a sense OF their
own innate dignity-a feeling as far re-
moved from mere selfish egotism as light
is from darkness-of Strengthening their
confidence in their own powers, Of
arousing their enthusiasm in the pursuit
of good.
Who can estimate the value Of such
an uplifting influence? Our best friend
never embarrasses US by making US
feel our inferiority or weakness. On
the contrary, he always gives us a lift
upward, a push onward. One of the most
touching things 1 know Of is the office
Of a real friend to one who is not
friend to himself. AhI this is friendship,
indeed. which will stand by US when
We will not stand by ourselves, 1 know
a man who thus stood by a friend who
had become such a slave TO drink and
all sorts Of vice that even his family
turned from him. When his father and
mother and wife and children had for
saken him, his friend remained loyal and
his great love and devotion finally re-
deemed the fallen man and sent him
back to decency and to his home.
Many people seem to think that their
friends are mere incidental things in
life, that 1t is not worth while to put
oneself out a great deal to cultivate
them. The result is that their lives are

BAD LITERATURE IN JAPAN.
TrRnsIatIon of Some Books from
the Western World DepIOred.

No sane person will question the obvious
fact that Japan owes almost all OF her
new life and activities to Occidental
civilization OF which the flOod-gates were
opened for her sixty years ago. OF late
years however. and especially since the
RussO-Japanese war. the evil fruit of in
discriminating following of Western eX-
amples minus the moral stamina that
checks decadent tendencies in Europe and
America. have been reaped by the younger
generation more noticeably. This is an
other fact that has aroused growing con-
Germ among the thinking public in this
country.

GERMAN put ON
KABAUSKY JURY
Says War Will Make No Diff
ference in Judgment
Of Case.
SUMMON 200 TALESMEN
Russian Charged with Killing Mother
in-law-May Have Hard Time
Filling Jury Box.
SUMMON 200 TALESMEN

Charged with the murder OF his mother
in-law, Mrs. Lena Raboy, March % last,
Herman Kabansky, twenty-five years old.
was placed on trial yesterday before Chief
Justice Covington in Criminal Court
No. l.
The tragedy occurred at the home OF
Mrs. Raboy, 1916 Seventh street north
west. Kabansky shot at two other people
in the house that night, but was appre-
hended by Policeman T. L. Edwards De-
fore he succeeded in killing others.
His attorneys probably will enter n
plea of insanity, but in rebuttal the pros
ecution will introduce several alienists
who made an examination Of the prisoner
while at the District jail.
Choose German Juror.
1t will take several days perhaps to get
a jury. OF the twenty-six talesmen on
the regular panel fifteen were excused
for various causes. Nine objected to the
death penalty, while two had expressed
opinions. One Juror said there had been
too many pleas OF insanity, and init
mated he didn't like the idea OF this ex-
cuse being put up by the defendants at
torneys. Another juror was Of German
descent, and counsel for the defense
asked II he could give the defendant a
fair trial after knowing he was a Rus
sian. the attorney thinking, perhaps, the
war would create a prejudice. The Juror
replied he could give fair trial, and was
selected.
Because Of the wide publicity given the
tragedy, Chief Justice Covington directed
that 90 talesmen be called Monday. The
case was continued until Monday. The
first hundred talesmen win be examined
at 10 o'clock, while the other hundred will
show UP after the dinner recess
About a month after his incarceration
in the District Jail, Kabansky attempted
suicide by hanging, but was discovered
in time
In May the government had the pris-
oner examined as to his sanity by Dr. E.
NJ. Brush, OF the Shepherd-Pratt Hos
pital. near Baltimore, and DR.. D. Percy
Hickling. a local alienist They will be
called as witnesses.

NO OBJECTION TO
BOMB THROWING
u. S. Has Not Shown Its Dis
satisfaction, Says Secre-
tary Bryan.
ENJOYS In THE DARK
All Powers at War May Use Aerial
Bombs Under Rules of The
Hague Conference.

There have been no representations by
the United States government to bellig-
erent governments on the subject Of
bomb dropping from aircraft, Secretary
of State Bryan declared here yesterday.
Secretary Bryan said that on more
than one occasion, when reports had
been observed in the newspapers of
bombs falling on or near American prop
erty in the countries which are at war,
the diplomatic or consular representatives
nearest the scene had been instructed to
make a report on the damage. These
inquiries, he said, were addressed to the
United States governments own repre-
sentatives and not TO the belligerent gov
ernments.
Secretary Bryan and other officials of
the State Department all said yesterday
that they knew of absolutely nothing
justifyinS the published reports that the
government, or the President, had eN-
pressed to the beIligerents disapproval of
the practice of dropping bombs upon
cities in countries engaged in the war.
EnvOys Deny Discussion.
Several ambassadors who, it was re-
ported, had received such intimations
from President Wilson, declared that they
had never discussed the subject at the
White House.
1t was recalled that Of all the belliger-
ents in the present war only Great Brit
ain, Austria-Hungary, and Turkey signed
The Hague declaration prohibiting the
throwing Of bombs Germany, France,
Russia, Servia, and Japan all refused to
sign it. The declaration is sweeping in
its terms, not limiting the prohibition
merely to aerial attack upon unfortified
cities, but prohibiting the use Of bombs
from aircraft altogether. The declara-
tiOn also contains the provision that It
shall be binding in a war only in case all
the belligerents are signatory to 1t, and
that il shall cease to be binding from
the moment a nonsignatory power en-
cages in the war. Consequently, accord
ing 10 its own terms, the convention has
absolutely no force whatsoever in the
present conflict.
1t also was pointed out that in any
event if representations had been made
by the United States they obviously had
had no effect, as only last week a Ger
man bomb, dropped from an aircraft,
exploded in front Of the United States
consulate at Warsaw, killing and injur-
ing several citizens and breaking the
windows of the consulate.
