CIVILIZATION LACKS.
Seattle P.-I.)

There Is something awry with twen- tieth century civilization. Perhaps men of another generation shall look back to these times with the same feeling of compassion that we regard the peoples of the dark ages. We have made a deal of progress. to be sure, but who shall say that a greater prog ress in the arts of civilization shall not be made by the generations to follow us?
 We have evolved a wonderful and intricate system. whereby justice Is dispensed to all men. There Is standard and a gauge and fixed rules Tor balancing the scales, and the hum olest of us has the means to Justice as we'll as the proLCest. And 1t is 80 with all nations with such varvine broadness as may be permitted by their lights.
 When the light Of reason and intel hgence fiickered but dimly in human minds men settled their quarrels by measure of might and the strongest brute prevailed. Then came a more wholesome conception of right and wrong Ind the knowledge that nigh does not make right. Out of the ex- perience of the ages a structure of statute and common law developed, through which men might take their disputes before arbiters and have them justly settled.
 IL Is possible for just men to dis agree. Truth has a variety of faces but the law determines with whom the right lies and men accept its de- cree. Life and property are secure and brute force no longer rules Each civ ilized nation governs It's internal affairs along these lines.
 It is only when nations have differ ences with each other that they relapse into barbarian, and the final arbiter is not equity. but brute force.
 What the world needs is an exten- sion of the system of national adjudi- cation to international affairs. It needs high court of the nations whose de- crees shall be accepted according to the measure of international law. Ii needs the same administration of jus tice in international affairs that ob- tains in national afrars. It needs the law of personal conduct applied to na- tional conduct, and the strength of all nations behind 1t to make 1t effective.

4 DOUBTFUL GAM z.
(Boston Record.)

Warner van Norden made several million dollars. He founded and head ed trust company in New York bear ing his name. He died nearly two years ago and his estate-what there is of it-is being settled up. It is asserted that he bankrupted himself trying to straighten out the indebted ness which grew from the speculations If a son, Warner Montague Van Nor den. which speculations are said to have reached S1o0oO,ooO All of which Is a chapter in the long story of spec. ulation--of trying to guess a million into ten million. Sometimes the guess works out and the little fortune be. comes n big fortune. Sometimes a man starts with a rusty Jacknife and lands on Fifth avenue. More often he loses the jacknife. More often the little fortune Is split and gobbled up There is not much sympathy wasted or the man who tries to become quickly rich through speculation. But there ie a good deal of sympathy for those who are embarrassed by the speculations of another. The man who plays poker sees the cards and occasionally deals The speculator usually doesn't

eAs1eAIl IS 70 YEARS OLD.
Cleveland Plain Deaier.i

It may interest the baseball fans to know that their favorite game has passed It's seventfeth birthday. It was on September 2s, 1s46, that the earliest baseball club was formed.
 In the start 1t was called the base ball club but little later on took the name of Knickerbocker Club. ..
 The rules of the garno havo not been preserved. but fundamentally they were Ike the present ones. The bound catch vas sanctioned. and the pitching wss really pitching, not throwing.
 Because of the heavy batting one of the early rules declared that the club making the first twenty-one runs should be given the game.
 The Knickerbocker played on a va cant lot in what is now lower New York, but presently went over to Ho- boken and marked out a diamond on he Elysian fielda For a time the nine was the whole thing in the new sport. It was the model. the pattern, 70 which theo ther hines. as they were called, looked up.
 Then something happened.
 Tho New York nine in the summer of 1S46, went over to Hoboken and beat the Knickerbockers at their own game and on their own grounds. 21 to l.

Students Of Ninth Grade Of
Public School.

Picnicing time is here and the first
OF the seasons outings along that
line was held yesterday afternoon at
Boucher's Grove. on Spa Creek.
The hostess OF the occasion was
Miss Mary Bass, one of the corps of
teachers of the City High School, and
the guests were the members OF the
Sophomore,or NinthGrade.of the High
School Various forms of amusement
were INDUCED inland there was dane
ing in the pavilion, music for which
was by a grafonola.
The showers of rain put something
OF damper on the outing, but schol-
ars and teachers alike, had jolly
good time. Boucher's Grove is an
ideal place for picnics.
The proprietor of the place has
made it even more attractive for
pleasure seekers by additional inn
provements made at the Grove within
the last year.

THIS MAN, INDEED IS
A WONDERFUL HUMAN.
Stranger With No Arms Or Legs, Can
Do Almost Anything That Real
Members Could Perform.

What the human body is able 10 do
in spite OF the great handicap of the
loss OF both arms and legs was amply
demonstrated in Annapolis during the
past few nights by the white man who
is travelling from city to city. and ap-
pealing to the charity of citizens of
the country.
II is needless to say more than one
word in speaking of what this poor,
unfortunate is able to do, and that
word is wonderful" Building him
self a platform on Conduit street,
near the intersection of Main street,
he gathered about him large aud
fence during the past three nights. and
delivered something in the nature of
a lecture as a prelude TO his per-
Torrance with the artificial" arms
and legs.
The man tells his audience that he
was deprived of his arms and legs by
being frozen in the great blizzard of
1888, the arms having been amputated
near the shoulders and the legs near
the thigh.
Two large hooks studded at the end
of the stump arms serve as hands"
and one would not know that the
afflicted mans lower limbs were arti-
fetal, bpt for his exposure of them so
readily is he able to get about. And
with the improvised hands, the man
can perform practically every service
that one blessed with his absent mem
bers, with the sole exception of but
toning his collar, and he is prevent
ed from doing this because OF the
laxity of the tendons of the stubs of
his arms, being unable to raise the
arms high enough
AT each of the demonstrations Civ
en- here the man gathered about him
large audience, most of whom con-
tributed bountifully, as he is living
his way through the world solely
through this means, and he closes his
his entertainment by announcing to
his auditors the amount he has re-
ceived and saying that he has a wife
and four children, to whom he will
send practically all of the funds.
The man, among other things. tells
you that the human body is built in
sections and discourages the theory
of handicap by the loss of one or
more sections, and points to persever-
ance in ovcoming such obstacles.
