A moving picture magazine recently
submitted to nearly one thousand
newspaper editors the question as to
whether the word movie" has OBJ
tanned a sufficiently established place
In our language to be used without
quotation marks. More than five hun
dred Of them replied affirmatively,
while only two hundred and twenty
expressed the opinion that the word
was still on probation, q few declaring
it ought to be abolished. It Is indica-
tive of certain American simplicity
and directness that "movie" should
have found popularity in this country.
whereas in Europe the current word is
"cinema." The old world stuck to the
original Greek derivative name Of
cinematograph, and the public short-
ened it. In America we preferred
moving picture-a name requiring no
translation for the multitude.

The ones who have learned to hold
their peace are chiefly entitled to the
pension bestowed upon all peacemak1
ers. There is nothing like the circu-
lation Of malicious gossip to foment
discord and create a ranking unhap-
piness where placid satisfaction dwelt.
Small talk is the product Of a little
mind, too cramped, confined to hold a
large idea. Since it cannot hope to-
create profound impression by any
thought of magnitude, it comes I'M
stead with the 'leprous distillment" of
poisonous suspicion, innuendo and UNI
substantiated hearsay, to set friend
afoul of friend and further infiame q
standing quarrel. There are those
who put an end to the life of every lie
and each uncharitable rumor when it
comes to them. For no false witness
can live except by circulation from
tongue to ear and thence to the tongue
again. If music when soft voices de-
must perish, so must the calumny and
the unverified report perish in the
mortuary silence of the mind that
buries in oblivion what does not re-
serve to be remembered.

In the old days the habit Of skip.
ping when reading a book was held to-
be a sign Of a slothful mind. Much
could be said in defense of that view
even today, but as time goes by and
the output of books and periodicals.
continues steadily to increase, the
mere knowledge of how to read will
be Of little use unless it is accompa-
MED by a Thorough knowledge of how
to skip. When every child is taught
reading, writing, arithmetic and skip.
ping, may 1t not improve the quality
Of the literary production? Should
every author realize that mis- readers
have been educated to skip, he would
be all the more carful to make them
forget that part Of their education by
writing pages that could not lightly be
passed over.

AMERICAN ART coNNoIssEuRs.

AMERICAN ART CONNOlSSEURSs
European critics never tire of ridi.
culing Americas Indifference to art
and lack Of artists. They regard US
as totally insensate about such mat
ters, although they must admit we
have some very fine art collectors. At
least, certain lnartistic Americans
have managed to obtain very cordial
welcomes abroad as patrons OF the,
best and oldest masters. Art, 1t ap-
pears, IS not so ethereal as to perish
in contact with the blighting touch of
our coarse American money. We may
not have the artistic temperament, but
We have what seems to cherish and
comfort 1t in those who claim to have
1t. Turning from our illustrious peri
patetic connoisseurs, we have a few
stay-at-homes not so mean in their
way. They display their skill chiefly
at the auction sales, the novelty in
which just at present is to see how
speedily they may be held. The rec
ord-breaker is recent one in New
York. at which in so minutes $280,000
worth of art was sold. Single speci.
mems went for as much as $25,000,
100000 and $4,000. TO appreciate the
American sense of art it is necessary
to get the proper view point. With
US it is not so much a matter of tenn.
permanent as the ability to bid.

The town was founded and survey

Stowaway, Held at New York.
New York, April 8.-When the
United Fruit steamer, Santa Marta

authorities. He said he had escaped
from the detention camp at Kingston,
Jamaica, after having been .imprison-

The stoaway, Walter Blank, Ger.
man, 33 years old, was turned over
to immigration Inspector O'Conner,
and will be held at Ellis Island until
some disposition is made of bis case.

which has been named 1.-THE upper

Blank looked as if he might have
lost considerable weight during the
last four months. He was thin to
the point of emaciation. He continu-
ed:
You may not believe me, but it
is nevertheless a fact that my daily
ration of food consisted of one ounce
each of meat and rice, one potato, a
spoonful of butter and black bread
the lack of food, but the tea was
terrible. l simply had to leave the
awful place"
Blank said that he was able to-
elude his captors because of the fact
that he had been employed as an
able seaman on the Santa Marta up.
until the time of his arrest in Kings
ton because of his nationality. His
quiet behavior at the camp, he said,
soon won him the privilege of trus-
ty, and when he saw the Santa Marta
entering the harbor Saturday he de-
cided to make break for liberty.
He walked out. of the main gate of
the camp unmolested, he declares,
and took his time in walking to the
quay where the steamer was berthed.
Il got on board" said the stow
away, "by hand-over-ha climbing
up one of the Santa Marta.'s hawsers.
1t was high noon, and although there
were many persons about no one at
