Washington, April 6.-Government OFF,
Gals took under consideration today a
statement from the German embassy
quoting an official message from the
Berlin Office. in which responsibility was
disclaimed for the loss Of any neutral
lives on board the British steamer Fall
aba, recently sunk BY a German sub
marine.
The claim is set up by Germany that
the Falaba, as well as other British
merchantmen was armed and that mil
itary necessity made it imperative for
the submarine to give any longer time
than was allowed for the passengers to
escape.

THEMISTOCLES

When Themistocles was asked by
his host at a dinner party to enter
tain the guests by playing the lutte, he
replied that he could not play the
fiddle, but that he 0uld make a small
town a great city. We have in this
nation many politicians who are good
"fiddlers," but they cannot make a
small town a great city. We are over
run with orators who can play upon
the passions of the people, but they
can't put brick and mortar together.
We need builders.
Let those who hunger and thirst for
power understand that the highest
glory Of a statesman is to construct,
and that II is better for a man that he
should build a public highway than
that he should become Governor Of
state. and that he start pillow than
that he become the author OF law.

the opinion that the note would pro-

deprive Mr.. Bryan of an opportunity
to win immortality as a peace-ma'

sticking to the President when he

Advice to Readers.

Very ready are we to say of a
book, How good this is-that's ex-
actly what 1 think" But the right
feeling is How strange that is! l
never thought Of that before, and yet
l see it is true, or if l do not now, l
hope l shall some day" But wheth-
er thus submissively or not, at least
be sure that you go to the author to
get his meaning, not to find yours.
Judge it afterward if you think your
self qualified to do so; but ascertain
II first. And be sure also, if the
author is worth anything, that you
will not get at his meaning all &C
once; nay at his whole meaning you
will not for a long time arrive in
any wise.-Ruskin.

Mr.Bryan Friday night issued an APP

Americans, urging them to aid in
maintaining peace between the
United States and the fatherland by
exerting their influence with the
influence with the German govern
eminent to persuade it not to take
any steps that would lead in the dr.
rection of war. With this state
ment Mr.. Bryan expects to end for
the present his efforts to lay before
the public the situation which caused
him to resign the portfolio of secre-
tary of state. On Wednesday he
gave out an explanation of why he
left the cabinet rather than sign the
last American note to Germany re-
garding submarine warfare; Thurs
day he issued an appeal to the
American people" to stand for per-
suasion rather than for force in as
sorting rights under international
law and Friday he made a brief
statement expressing gratiication
at what he termed change of tone
on the part of the Lingo editors"
regarding the note to Germany and
the same night issued the fourth
statement.

Glad Vacation Time.

The boy home from school for the
summer vacation OF the dear old farm.
rested ON his hoe, and gazed over
across the broad, hay-scented field
where the game was going on. "Ah,"
said he, signing, why are we born?
Why lured from eternal nothingness
into concrete existence, to buffet the
storms of this unkind world? What,
then. this problem of human existence
with which science has wrestled fu-
tilely for ages?" And his revered
parent, leaning over the fence, said he
didn't know; but, all the same, there
would be no baseball for sonny that
afternoon, and if he didn't hoe out
that tater patch before night there'd
be some wrestling done, though, that'd
make science open her eyes if she
should chance along by the woodshed
that evening.-Exchange.

this instance because most men are
fools in the matter of matrimony. A
man will fall in love with the first girl
that gazes into his eyes rather meek
Iy and listens to his foolish talk. And
he will marry her in quicker time
than a one-armed man can light a
lamp. This is what the fair female
desires, as she is tired of earning her
own living and thinks it about time
to get some easy man to earn it for
her. -
And the poor, weak man, overcome
by his own egotism, forgets what a
hard time he has to earn living for
himself alone, innocently becomes a
party to the agreement and if he does
not fulfill his part of the agreement
the one-time flower Of his heart may
have him up before the court of do
nestle relations and maybe later in
Jail.
So I think men should be better
schoOled in handling this matter and
then maybe the leap would cease to
be fatal.-"Jimac."
