Modest England.

NENRY wEISMAN. president Of the
u German-American Alliance. said
recently In Brooklyn:
The English talk lot about their
freedom. But this freedom, to such of
us as have seen the horrors OF the
British slums. seems in the main a
freedom to exploit and crush and bru-
talize.
The English. dragging about their
freedom, remind me of the doctor who
settled in a new town. He visited tho
editor of the local paper and asked
for write-up. The editor told him to
dash OFF the main points on a sheet of
copy paper, but this the doctor refused
to do. saying he was too modest.
oh, said the editor. you can surely
jot down the main points, the facts

so the doctor seated himself at

glad to know that he has refused q luc-
rative practice in another town in or

not an old man, but he is thoroughly
experienced, and never loses a case

High Shipping Prices.

IT HE present high prices paid at the
u public sales of steamers, recently
held in London. show very plainly the
high values now placed on shipping
property. The prize steamer Emil. of
1881 tons. which was built at New
castle in 1904, and sold by a British
firm. Just two years ago. to her late
German owners for $4,000. was sold
September for S290.300, more than
$95 per gross ton. Within. two years
her value has doubled. The Danish
steamer Lucy Anderson. of 1852 tons,
also built at Newcastle in 1904, was
sold for $135. 900.
Although one cannot really form a
fair estimate of the value of any pas
senger steamer without her careful in
spection first, the price Of $4,000 paid
for the prize steamer Hans Woermann.
cargo and passenger vessel of 1868
tons. built at Port Glasgow in 1900,
seems reasonable enough. In spite of
the high prices paid. there is no doubt
the buyers will work the ships at a
profit 1t is even estimated that pur-
chasers OF prize ships at the beginning
OF the syear have recouped themselves
by the freights for the capital cost of
the steamers, and could sell the ves-
sells today at a price far In excess of
what they paid for them. The high
prices paid now are based on the as
sumption that the vessels will take adj
vantage of the high market rates.

said. HE abolished some years ago
in court circles the old German fashion
Of tucking the napkin under the chin
But an old nobeman dined with him
one evening at Potsdam who did not
know the new rule. With what tact.
what exquisite tact. the kaiser set him
right.
when the old noble tucked his big
white napkin under his chin the seventy
or eighty other diners were horror
struck. but the kaiser looked at the old
fellow with twinkling eyes.
My dear SIR said the kaiser, point
ing at the napkin with his fork, my
dear sir, are you awaiting a visit from
the barber?'
1.-The old fellow flushed scarlet and
tore the napkin off his chest. The
guests. led by the kaiser. burst into
roars of mirth Thus, thanks to the ex-
quisite tact of Wilhelm ii, the awkward
incident passed off without embarrass-
ment."

Hunting the Submarine.

A T the beginning of the war the Eng

combat in fighting the underwater
craft. But they have grappled with
the difficulty, and now they have means
for tracing submarines Immediately
they enter certain areas that are among
the most carefully guarded secrets of
the navy. But among those who are
interested in the navy's work. what 10
common knowledge now is. that they
can trace a submarine travelling under
water by a curious formation of the
wave it makes on the surface. Eng
lish sailors are trained to observe this
wave. On a rough sea this wave is
not so easily picked out, but their
trained eyes can do 1t, and. what ia
more, once they get sight of this wave,
they have no difficulty in following II,
for the submarine is continually send
ing up little air bubbles. Once on its
track, the submarine is doomed. There

THE FAIR COMMISSION.

The Star-Bulletin can see no good reason for
any talk of recalling" Chairman Wood of the
Hawaii Fair Commission.
From all accounts the Hawaii building
which has been created largely along the lines
he insisted upon-is as worthy of the territory
as could be expected for the limited funds
available, and Hawaii is getting very favorable
mention in all comments upon the state and
territorial exhibits. OF course the fair COM
mission has been criticised for one thing and
another, but the criticism has not been serious
enough to warrant the recall of the resident
commissioner Some definite advantage in such
course would have to be shown before it is
entitled to any consideration whatever.
The senate very properly wants to know that
the territory s funds are handled in business
ike way and that the fair commission is look
ing after the finances in shipshape manner. 1t
IS to be hoped that the discussion of the COM
mission s personnel will result in satisfying the
public as well as the senate on this point Some
Reorganization may be necessary if the senate
persists insits refusal to confirm Commissioner
E|iinger.
The criticism of the commission outside of
The senate has some Of the aspects Of personal

THE TRADE UNIONS IN WAR coNTRo-

England's recruiting campaign has its pc
Ecuiiar aspects The Associated Press reports
as one of these the controversy which has
arisen over the proposal to the trade
unions made by III. J. Tenant, NJ. p, under
secretary Of war, that the men help recruiting
by allowing women to take their places. This
is not received with cordiality by the labor
leaders To give women temporary jobs, they
reply, would result in sero Us industrial trouble
when the men were discharged from the army.
Already the encroachment of women upon the
work of men has caused the trade unionists
considerable uneasiness. If women were given
jobs another crisis, say the unions, would arise
at the end of the war because Of their natural
objection to being turned ont; or, what is worse,
the men having wives in the factories would
let them remain as the supporters of the house
hold. 4s S Ge
Workingmen have not hung back in the
