Tho Passing Of tho Sturgeon.
From the Scientific American.

S03t
In his last annual report the United
States commissioner of fisheries saws
that the story of the surgeons is one
of the most distressing in the whole
history of the American fisheries" For
years these, large, inoffensive fishes
were supposed to be of no value, and
when. as often happened, they became
~entangled in tishermen's nets, they were
Knocked in the head and thrown back
into the water. When it was discov-
cred that the surgeons eggs were
valuable as caviar and its flesh as food
n period of reckless fishing began and
in a few years the best and most pro-
ductive waters were depleted, and what
should have been made a permanent
fishery of great profit was DESTROYED.
On h Atlantic coast the catch of
sturgeon fell from 1000, 900 pounds to
less than 100000 in Is years., and an
even more rapid decline occurred on
the Pacific coast the Great lakes.
At present the total annual yield for
the whole country Is less than 1000, 600
pounds, and is decreasing. Meanwhile
the demand for the eggs and flesh has
steadily increased, with the natural re-
suit on prices. A mature female stur-
geon now often brings more than $3.50,
The worst of the situation is the fact
that all attempts at artificial propaga-
ton have failed; so that, unless prompt
steps are taken to protect the sturgeon
by law, his fish will be practically ex-
tinct in American waters in a very few
years. The commissioner recommends
that the legislatures Of all states in
which this fish exists or has existed
should absolutely prohibit its capture
or sale for a period Of at least 10 years.
Meanwhile the bureau Of fisheries pro-
poses to transplant into our waters
young sturgeon from foreign countries:
especially a species from the Danube
and the Caspian sea, specimens OF
which have been offered by the Rou-
manian government.

Imperialism.
From Harper's.

Lord Morley. in his Notes on Politics
and History. speaks of the fashionable
idolatry of great s~tates,'' and brings for
ward, to prove that it is idolatry, the fact
that self-government was saved by three
small communities so little in imperialtstio
scope and ideals as Holland, Switzerland
and Scotland" What happened four cen
turtles ago might well happen again. Most
minds accept whatever ideas are fashion,
able at the time. 1t Is now fashionable
to confuse size with greatness. Once when
Florence was as big as one Of our smaller
cities. she was Intellectually greater than
the whole United States. It is also ire
quently believed that If a. state is small
1T may be wiped out. The three states
mentioned by Lord Morley do something
to quiet that dread. The United States is
so large within its own borders that the
question for US is academic. No one of
President Wilson'S domestic services is
greater than his Arm stand for intellec-
tual and moral principles In foreign at
fairs. None of his services has a better
chance Of contributing to our actual
creative greatness in the future.

Katharine Tynan's Poems.

HI0Ih i. l.S NSChiy
All Of u were use to talk-not al
ways We're wisely-about the Celtic
glamour. the Celtic twilight, n the
rest. The thing is still here, perhaps
all the more really for u silence, and
today Mrs. lyman, with whom Mrs.
Meynell shares ungrudgingly the crown
of womanly greatness in poetry, brings
US a new book, Irish Poems" (Sidg-
wick and Jackson, 3s. Sd. metz, which
has h very essentials of 1rishry in
every line. 1t could not conceivably
have been written by "a Saxon. Mrs.
lyman, however, Is a modern, n has
nothing to say of the legends beloved
of Mr.. Yeats Of Mr.. Trench. Most of
her poems are devotional, many are
just exquisite child songs; but over
them all is that strange elusive visit
fulness which we have all agreed to be
the truest note of the Celt.
There's a mist that's over Ireland when
the blackbird calls,
And when you come it's risin', and when
o go it falls;
It's mad Of green and silver and the
And the fairest sun is over it you ever
knew.
Ochl sure it isn't mist at all. except q
mist Of tears.
That Is fairly typical Of the haunting
sweetness Of the volume. but it sug
gests only one side. There are a dozen
equally fine lyrics that tell OF the Irish
land, but the finest poems in the book
are purely devotional. Why should we
shrink, even in a newspaper, from say
ing that the dominant note Of these
poems Is their-holiness? To be relig-
tous and unashamed Is, 1t seems, pos
sible today only to an Irish poet. It is
difficult to quote without spelling some
of the best poems, but here are the
concluding verses from 1.-THE Tree"

"My poor Adam and his wife
Shall nave shade and quiet mirth.

Hanging. head and knees. alack.
And NY Tree shall give Ne Back
What 1 lost by Eden bower"
This is as. certainly Celtic as 1t is
mystic. One would like to quote the
whole Of 1.-THE Leper," but we can only
extract the significant second verse:
Unclean! Unclean! But Thou canst make
Yet, II Thou cleanse me, Lord, see tina,
Like that one grateful leper Of the ten
Who ran back praising Thee.
We permit ourselves one final quota.

There are lilies and daisies
In the House of the Lord.

With q long, long regard.
The mothers find the children

Let Us All Hope So.
From the Brooklyn Eagle,

Mrs; Charlotte Perkins Gilman is pro-
tagonizing for the notion of 'kitchenless
homes" all cooking to be done in scienti-
fee laboratories. cot course, with women
Inspectors The brilliant agitator fore
sees masculine opposition. She says:
Every man clings desperately to the
idea Of having his own private female
cook. Tn sorry to say it doesn't matter.
They won't like the new arrangement.
You won't like it. But it's coming. and
your children will thrive under It, for
they will haye the sort of food they need"
But, dear Mrs. Gilman, what are women
to do with their time when the kitchenless
home arrives? Already package foods,
delicatessen conveniences, gas ranges,
etc. have subjected them to ennui almost
i~ntolerable. Bridge whist has its limita-
tons. Husbands who have nothing to find
fault about are great bores. The worst
possible menace to the home and the
greatest possible stimulus to conditions
that cause divorce may be hidden In the
idea of the Atchenless home. Let's think
it over. Maybe its inevitability has been
prematurely announced We hope SO.

OFFICE HOLDING.

A man holds office for a while, and
bleeds and dies in fossy style, to save
our bulwarks from decay, and then
upon a fateful day he finds he is an
also ran-the office job has dumped the
man. And does he then grid up his
loins. and say Ill go and chase the
coins as in the sunny days gone by,
ere I began to bleed and die?" All,
no! He's done with useful toll; you
will not see him till the Soil, or curry
down old Dobbin's legs, or scratch
around to find the eggs. He will not
plant the corn in May, or bale the frag-
rant, juicy hay, or paint the fence or
prune the trees, or herd the humble
humble bees. The office germ is in
his brain. and all your p~leadings are in
vain. He has no use for sweat-earned
kale: he'll camp upon the party's trail,
where all the dreary has-beens throng,
and beg for handouts from the strong.
He'd rather have some dinky Job
awarded by the statesmen mob than
ornament his native town by holding
sane position down. You learn a lot
of tricks and guile, you lose your grip
on shings worth while, to useful work
you close o eye when once you've
learned to bleed and die.
