SYMPATHY NOT CALLED FOR
klnd-Hearscd Man Learned Something
as to Predictions of the
Average "kid."

City Hall park was sizzling, re-
marks the New York Evening Post
Suddenly shrill clamor rose above
the low-keyed song OF traffic, and
like flock OF blackbirds, a dozen
children in all stages of undress and
dirtiness flew toward the southwest
corner of the park. A tall, good.
natured man leaned against the iron
fence and held up handful Of yel-
low slips of paper. They pleaded for
them, fought for them; and when
the last had been grabbed, they dis.
appeared as quickly as they had
come.
Would you mind telling me- asked
an interested spectator, what it ia
you are giving away?Y
Why said the man, they are
milk tickets
''Free?"
"Oh, no. You buy them over there
at the milk station-cent apiece"
The practical good sense of the
charity struck the spectator forcibly,
and 1t was not many minutes before
another crowd was struggling and
clamoring for the coveted bits of
paper. He favored the smallest, dirt.
lest, and thinnest children. One lit
tie mite, with big, wistful brown eyes
particularly touched his heart, and
he pressed nickel into her hand 1t
was something of a shock to see her, a
moment later, slyly nudging one of
the other forlorns and displayed her
pudgy little palm full of the yellow
slips.
Want to know what they do with
them tickets?' said the first man
We'll, they sell EN-" He pointed
across the way to where a group of
tattered babies surrounded q vender

is good for them"
Maybe they don't" said the man.
but they have a mighty good time
doing the things that amt, and with
no one taggin' after EN- to keep EN-
straight There's nothin' a kid likes
better than to go unmatched and un.

crept into his eyes. "Gee!" he
breathed, I'D like to be one of 'em

Then he eyed the spectator sharp.

were ready to shed tears over EN-;
but let me tell you something if you
have never been one of de gang, you
don't know what fun is. Now don't
mean no offense, but l wouldn't be
surprised if you was brought up in

a deep tinge of contempt; "and do
you think that one of them," point
ing to knot of squabbling young
sters, would change places with

ued with a shrug, what kinds OF
people turns sorry for each other"

Artesian Wells In Australia.

In the rolling downs country Of
western Queensland the artesian sup
ply of water has, when tapped, rem
dered it possible to carry on industries
dependent on water supply. Human
ingenuity and research have supplied
from natures subterranean reser-
voirs an unfailing supply of water,
both for drinking and irrigation. At
the end of the year 1912 there were
1879 artesian bores in Queensland.
The deepest bore is situated at Bime-
rah, In the central west. This bore
has depth of 1904 feet. The shallow
est bore is at Manfred Downs, also
in the central west, which yields
supply OF 1000 gallons per day at a
depth of 108 feet. The Charleville
bore has depth of 1871 feet and the
largest flow in the state-3, ,000, 900 gal
Ions per day. The estimated aggre-
gate daily flow from all bores in
Queensland is 529,s17s60 gallons. To
obtain this supply necessitated 3Ss.6s
miles In depth Of boring In some OF
these bores the water has a high tenn
perature. and requires cooling before
being used for domestic purposes.

Minority Leader Delivers Vigorous Speech Against Granting Independence
 to the Philippines

Washington, October 1.--Warning that Philippine independence meant surrender of American strategic com mand of the Pacific "the fighting ground of the future" and that a con flict between the United States and the orient. commercial or otherwise,' was inevitable. was given the House today by Republican Leader Mann In vigorous speech opposing the pending administration Philippine bill. Repre- sentative Mann declared that if the Philippines became independent they would, in time, be acquired by Japan or by some other nation. ultimately to be used against the United States.
 If there is to be independence of the Philippines.' said Mir. Mann, let 1t be absolute independence. If they are to go, let them go, and let Japan them as is inevitable. and then we will know what we have to fight.
 Close to Japan, like sleeping child of the world. is China. with her vast territory, with her immense popula- tion. What was going on in Japan d few years ago Is going on now in China. The awakening of China is more marvellous than in Japan and as these great people in China rise to the civilization of our modern days and engage In manufactures and in production of all which man produces. we will enter Into series of com petitive efforts with the far east which never have been equalled in this world of ours.
 Should Enforce Position
 "The great population of China. we say. shall not be permitted to come to our shores. At the same time we say that China shall not be permitted to shut out our people or our goods. Such a position as we take perhaps cannot be abandoned by our people. but 1t never can be enforced in the long run without the power to enforce it. When China is awakened, going out Into tho world we will have conflict on our hands which will last for many years. possibly many centuries.
 We who now are legislating, if we do not bear in mind the possibilities of hundreds of years from now and the Inevitable conflict, commercial or oth-A erwise. which we will meet in the far east. have forgotten the principles which ought to actuate us
 Tt IS as certain as tndt tnc sun VIII arise tomorrow that u conflict will come between the far east and the far west across the Pacific ocean. All which has taken place in the world during the his- tory of the American race up to now teaches us that the avoidance of the com fiict is Impossible. hope war may not come: that there be no conflict of arms l have little faith that in this world of ours people and races are able to meet ir compention for long period of .ine without an armed conflict. fight foR commercial supremacy in the end leads to fight with arms. because that is ths final arbitsr between nations.
