Inevitably the talk will now be Of
peace, and properly so. The atmOs-
phere OF the whole world should be
surcharged with It. Whatever pow
ers there may be in suggestion should
be utilized TO the fullest extent. Pray
er. petition, argument. every form of
expression known to man should be
employed.
The oppOrtune time has arrived, the
moment is psychological for pressing
in upon the warning nations the peace
idea 1t has ban already introduced
20 them. The subject was taken up
by Oscar Straus with the German am
bassadOr a week ago. 1t has been
steadily growing and spreading. The

Official war reports show what is
probably true, that Germany has made

plans went awry at the very start
Belgium was the spoke in the wheel
OF German progress. But for Belgi-
um the Germans would have been in
Paris a month ago and enjoying the
advantages the allies now possess.
But for Belgium the flower of the
German army would not now be
buried in the fields OF Belgium and
France. To Belgium Paris owes its
salvation and the world owes the early
termination of the war which now
seems probable
France and England were not pre-
pared for the German onslaught. Ger
many was prepared for the French in
vasion, but in his pride the kaiser had
not considered Belgium He took II
for granted Belgium would accommo-
date him with right Of way through
her country. but Belgium was not so
disposed and she was prepared TO sup

terms are fixed Belgium will be COM

compensate for such a sacrifice.

THE .INTELLIGENT PUBLIC"

The beginning of the theatrical sea-
son is marked by a renewal of the &C
tivities of those associations that are
seeking TO better our stage by telling
a select group of subscribers what
plays to see. In its prospectus one of
these societies quotes this line from
hitherto unrecOgniZed authority
why has the intelligent local public
all but abandoned the theater2"
TheatergOing is still an extremely
popular form of amusement, but there
may be a difference of opinion as to
what constitutes the intelligent pub
lie" Certainly not those persons who
are so devoid of knowledge or good
taste that they are obliged 10 join a
society in order to find out what
theaters they should visit Not
through such as these will the Ameri-
can stage be lifted Co a plane of
equality with that of France or Ger
many. Nor is this intelligent public
composed of those whose education
has been derived from books. The
stage in its best form reflects life,
and TO appreciate il one must first
study life at close quarters and taste
its bitterness.
The only audience to which a play
er looks for that inspiration which is
such a powerful stimulus to dramatic
art is one that yields itself readily TO
the spell of stage illusion. The
academic mind. having learned that
the mountain in the scene is merely
a painted curtain, holds itself aloof
from the illusion and complacently
dubs itself the Intelligent public."-

Special correspondence.
PARASITIC man of the hour in
France is Gen. ]. J. c. Jofre, COM
mander-in-chief of the French armies.
The French idolize the dashing type
of general-the slim fellow, with
pointed mustache and eagle eye-the
beau ideal like Gen. Beauregard OF
the American Con 'ederate army.
Joffre is none Vch. He's rather
stocky and hea y # jaw. He looks
more like an Fnglis = or American Of
ficer. And the French are cOttonins
TO him because. they say. se's solid.
he's not impulsive. he won't throw
away the armies of that dear France.
Joffre is credited with being an or
ganizer of victory He does not be-
lieve in flashes of genius. He knows
that long and careful preparation is
necessary.
lie has been at the head of the
army for three years. Never for a
single waking hour in those three
years has he forgotten the purpose for
which he was appOinted-tO prepare
for the struggle in which France is
engaged today.
If month or so ago you had gone
TO seem him at his home in Paris you
would have found stout man,
heavily built apparently living the
y
sian. with his wife and daughters.
His is a pleasant. airy house. If
YOU were asked whether anything
about it made a particular impression
upon you. YOU would probably say,
yes. its restfulness'. Gen. Joffre is
a restful man. His wide brow, under
close cropped white hair. is tranquil

lips are firm; they show his teeth D
LITTLE when he IA ikS
He does not talk much. What he
says is pithy and TO the point, the
result of quiet reflection and study
expressed in quiet, Straightforward
sentences. A man of gentle, kindly
manners. slOw-moving. contempla-
tive. That is Gen. Joffre at home.
In the field as in his office at the
ministry Of war he is another man. a
man "as hard as nails. He gives
orders and expects them to be carried
out exactly; if they are not there is
trouble. He may sympathize with
the incompetent but he cannot over
look failure After the maneuvers Of
last year he dismissed five generals.
France which had known little Of
this masterful chief of the general
staff before, suddenly became aware
that its armies were being reOrgan-
lied by an exceptional man.
When war was declared in 1870 he
had scarcely finished one year al the
Polytechnique. which is the French
West Point. At Is. therefore, he was
given a commission. and as an ar
tillerY Subaltern took part in the de-

One hundred years ago the Emperor
Napoleon, after having fought three
battles with the allies in three sue
cessive days, met Butcher himself at
Vauchamps. and. after a keenly fought
engagement, drove the invaders back
with considerable loss. BY the four
engagements with the Silesian army,
fought between February 10 and Feb
ruary IA, Napoleon gained $4,000 pris-
oners, whom he at once sent to Paris
in order to raise the depressed spir-
it's of the populace. In that. however.
he only succeeded imperfectly, for
while Butcher was temporarily held
in check Prince Schwartzenberg adj

DRUG HOUSE ENJOINED

United States district court, to-day
granted a permanent injunction in be-
half of the Centaur Company of New
York, the manufacturers of F1etcher's
Castoria, against the Stewart &
Holmes Drug Company of this city.
The controversy arose from the sim
ulating of the labels Of this ~well-known
preparation, and from the evidence
filed in the cast it was shown that the
infringing label was first discovered
on sale in Honolulu, and was traced to
its origin here in Seattle.
The defendant company is one of
the oldest and largest C of its
kind in the Northwest.
The decree carries with it an order
that the Stewart & Holmes Company
recall the goods which are on the mar
ket under the infringing label, and to
pay all costs in the suit and damages
assessed at $400.-Seattle. Wash,

Particular Version.
Reason 10 Ascribed to contemptuou,
indifference TO Things Foreign
That Exists More or Less In
Every Land on the Globe.

Florence, ItaIy.-The city we and
the English call Florence" is by
Italians called Fiorenza. The name of
the British capital is, to the French,
Londres, and to the Italians, Londra.
BY English-speaking peoples the Aus
trtan capital Is referred to as Vienna.
whereas the Austrians spell it Wien.
In addition to these differences there
may be cited Dunkirk and Dunkerque,
Cologne and Koln. The Hague and La
Haye, Geneva and Gent.
What is the reason for these differ
ences? Is it to be sought in philologif
cal influences alone, or is 1t to be
found in that contemptuous indiffer-
ence with reference to things foreign
that exists more or less in every land?
In the aforementioned case, it has
been pointed out that, had the word
London" existed at the time the
French word "Londres' came into use.
the French would probably have adopt-
ed the English form. But, the French
contend. no London" name was in use
when "Londres" was coined. The
Latin name whereby the British town
first became known elsewhere was
Londinium. The locativa case form Of
this noun (the one most often used in
colloquial style) was Londini. 1t fol-
lowed that, in the continuous inter
change of words and their develop
ment into modern speech, Londini
very easily became Londri in the
speech of the F~renchmen. Then, as

a new difficulty arose. When Londini
was accepted(b by the French it was for
some time, treated. quite mistakenly,
just as a French plural noun would be
