DELIClOUSNESS OF NONSENSE

Sense is the mark of the measles on the unwashed skin of time. Nonsense IS the bloom of innocence on the unquenchable hope of humanity Any fool can talk sense fut nonsense is the dearest relaxa- tion of 1he worthy and the rare. Nonsense is love; sense is merely matrimony. Non sense is the redeeming spice of truly cultivated taste the sugar on the lnslpld strawberry, the salt in the monotonous egg, the rouge delicious on the cheeks of circumstance.
 You will have noticed that when you tell man to get sense you merely convey your desire that he shall get to the devil. Book makers and politicians have sense. It is commoner than dirt, less inspiring than mud, less stimulating than warm salad. It is the worm in the apple, the fly in the ointment, the microbe in the corpuscle, death in life, pain in gladness, hate in love, It is the one thing that the most indus trious end careful lover of himself can never entirely escape It is like chronic gout in an otherwise sound organism. It is per versity in paradox. It is a ghoul garbed as saint It is the open drain that poisons Already. It is hell invading Paradise. It is the most obstinate and mischievous de- fusion of humanity It is the creeping gar alysis that kills wit It is Psyche with al, Liberated hroat-Frank Martin, in Smart

ROOSEVELT
 TO PRINCE BISMARCK

An Associated Press dispatch of August l2 last from Albany, N. 1., tells of an in teresting speech delivered at the state con stitutional convention by William Barnes the Republican leader, in which he said that if a stop was not put to what he termed "sociahstic" or class legislation there would be established in this country an autocratlc state similar to that of Germany, denying utterly the American theory of equality" Incidentally the Republican leader compared Theodore Roosevelt to Bismarck, and as serted that the Progressive party had in augurated and was advocating the identical policy which had caused the Socialist party in Germany to become the largest single group in the reichstag
 Mr Barnes warning and attack on the Progresslves was contained Tn speech uTg ing the convention to adopt hls amendment prohibiting the legislature from passing min imum wage, old age pensions or similar laws.
 In his speech MT Barnes, referring to the European war said:
 "The splendid efficiency of the German war operations brings into bold relief he theory that the state should be all in all and that the individual Is only part of the machine Their achievement may be ad- mired or not. It certainly is not democ- racy and cannot possibly work out to the development of the person himself, but pur- chases his support as piece in the mechanism of autocracy."
 In advocating legislation to care for the workingmen, Mir. Barnes said Bismarck told the reichstag that such laws would check socialism. He then quoted Roose- velt's words in advocating the 1912 platform of the Progressive party as a check to socialism and an antldOte to anarchy"
 Commenting on the two predictions, Mir. Barnes said:
 "The enactment of state socialistic legis- lation is not a check to socialism. but pre- pares the mind for it. Two distinctly an tagonistic ideals can never grow side by side within a state The theory of equality must sutfocate in the atmosphere of legls- ation for privilege It is not within the power of human mind, having secured largess something for nothing not to develop further demands for acquisition without performance"
 Declaring the soci2list idea to be chImer- cal and only vision, Mir Barnes con tinued:
 ''The certain destination involved in this kind of legislation will not be the attain ment of the socialistic ideal, but the tyran- nous autocratic state, not democratic m a single form, but established in the name of democracy The benevolent state lnevltaO y breeds. not men and women. but depend ents The oppression of crowd-thought, crowd-interest, crowddemands for med- ocrity, might even lead the human race back to the protoplasm whence it emerged,

CHRISTIE LOSES FAITH
 IN FIDELITY CF CANNES

Christie Anthoneson, Iditarods well known leading jewcer, is not one of those who agree with the sentiments expressed in Senator Vests "Daiense of a Dog in which that animel was endowed with all the noble traits and characteristics that entitle him to be called mans best friend Christe's faith was shattered rudely few days ago by an incident which occurred on the trail between Horsefy creek, the scene of the recent stampede, and this city,
 Christie used to own dog named Patsy, which was his constant companion, and which according to his master, was the peer if not the superior of any living dog He was hardly ever out of his owners sight and was the object of much care and at tention by Chris who seemed to be ever on the watch to see that he suffered not the least discomfort The idea of putting the animal to use by htching him to dog sled was repugnant to his master, and he became one of the most pampered of ani mals. Chris was compelled to part with him only because he could not take proper care of him, and then he had a difficult task to select new master for him who would treat him kindly This he finally did, and he had not seen his old pet for several months when he left for the new strike last week.
 On hs return home Mir AnthOnieson and his party met an outfit going to the new diggings, and stopped to chat with the driver of the dog team He was surprised to find that Patsy was the wheeler of the team and delightedIy he petted him and made much of him. But Patsy, after giving him I most rcproachful look, refused to have anything to do with him, and Christie was disappointed.
 Chris is convinced that the intelligent ani- nal was resentfu at his old master for turn ing him over to a new owner who thought so little of dogs as to make them work. His thoughts must have reverted to the days of ease and comfort he spent with Chris and the comparison with his present condi- ton as a work dog, and knowing that Chris was responsible for his condition of servl- tude, he refused to have anything to do with him
 Chriss merry laugh is not nearly SC hearty since his old friend went back on him

SECRETS OF THE BRITISH
 SECURED BY WOMEN SPIES

Long before the war 1t was known that Germany employed hundreds of feminine spies-beautiful society women Tn many cases These women have played important parts in the present campaign.
 Here is a typical case. By accident ! woman handed sentry the very note that she was to have given the Germans in mistake for the permit that she was to show in order to cross the bridge between Varang- vile and St. Nicholas. She was charged be fore a court of war and later executed.
 Another woman dropped a letter which read: Hurry up; the Twentieth corps ar rived this evening" She dropped it at the gates of Nancy, and was straightway ar rested During the battle of the Alsne a woman was one night discovered signalling from window to the Germans by means of an electric torch.
 Perhaps the most daring espionage eX- plot by woman was that of a pretty ltal- ian in the pay of Germany. Until her arrest she travelled about in motor car and man aged to give the enemy much valuable in formation about the French troops. She had somehow provided herself with faxed passports bearing the forged signatures ot Sir John French and General Jot1re.
 Attached to the garrison at Posen was young officer named Schorveder, who was very poor. He was deeply in love with a girl named Ida Mulerthal, but owing to his poverty, the prospect of their getting mar ried was very remote.
 The lovers trouble was known to Rus sian secret agent, who approached the lieu tenant and offered him f5, 900 for plan ot the fortress of Posen. Dazzled by this offer, the lieutenant agreed but he found 1t dlttl- cult to carry out his task. His sweetheart then suggested cunning way out Of the difficulty.
 You shall tattoo plan of the fortress on my back" she said. '1 shall easily be able to travel to Russia with it without be- ing discovered" They carried out their fantastic idea sue cessfully, but the silly extravagances in which the newlywedded couple indulged after the girl returned to Posen aroused sus picion, and they were both arrested.
 "You were trapped by woman who Is the agent of foreign power, and so l an going to show leniency toward you; but 1t cannot be much, the crime is too great These words were spoken by MT. Justice

RACE PREJUDICE

Edward Milton Royle gives the following dissertation on trace prejudice" in These Are My People,"
 Theoretically speaking, we are all Ills children, but we live in world ot prelu- dice and passion, of huge implacable lgno- rance of the simplest things of Divine Love. Is it wise to arouse that ignorance, chat- lenge it. perpetuate its ferocity, live face to face with it and force your wife and chll- dren to live face to face with 1t? IS It wise to subject them to commlseratlon and hat odious sense of superiority which IS one amending cruciixion? Race prejudice why, it's the curse of the world. In all ages men have been busy inventlng reasons Tor being better than their fellow men.

THE SLANDERER

A lady visited St. Philip Neri on one occa- sion, accusing herself of being slanderer.
 Do you frequently fall into this fault ?" he inquired.
 Yes, very often' replied the penitent.
 My dear child" said Philip, your fault is great, but the mercy of God is greater. I now bid you do as follows Go to the nearest market and purchase chicken just killed and covered with feathers; then walk to certain distance, plucking the bird as you go. Your walk finished, you return to me-
 The woman did as she was told, and re- turned anxious to know the meaning of SC singular an injunction.
 You have been faithful to the first part of my orders" said Philip; "now do the second part, and you will be cured. Re trace your steps; pass through all the places you have traversed, and gather up one by one all the feathers you have scattered"
 But" said the woman, q cast the feath CTS carelessly away, and the wind carried them in all directions"
 Well my child said Philip, "so it IS with your words of slander Like the feath- CTS which the wind has scattered they have been waited in many directions; call them back now if you can. Go and sin no more" Selected,

DEMORALIzED THE ENEMY.
Ar Unexpected Charge That Resulted
In Rout and Annihilation.


In Bout and Annihilation.
There have been many curious bits
Of strategy in warfare. but none more
effective than the coup OF the Tercei-
rams when threatened by the Span
iards.
Early in the morning OF the 10Th day
OF July. 1881 the inhabitants of the
village of st. Sebastian, Isle of Ter
ccira, one of the Azores or western
group. were alarmed at the sight Of a
squadron, consisting of seven large
Spanish war galleons. anchored off the
little bay at Salga, the operations for
landing a hostile force being actually
in progress.
Hastily summoning some companies
of militia and collecting behind a
neighboring knoll large herd of semi
wild cattle from the neighboring pas
lures, the islanders quietly awaited
the massing OF the Spaniards on the
beach.
When this had been accomplished,
the Tercelrans advanced close up TO
the foe. as II TO the attack, when, sud
denly opening out into two long col
umns and leaving wide. open space
between, the numerous cattle were
sent laundering down the center, goad
ed on by picadOrs on horseback. So UNI
usual and unexpected charge threw
the Spaniards into complete disorder,
and, being at once set upon by the is
landers, scarcely a man escaped to the
ships, several guns which had been
landed falling as spoil to the conquer
ors.-Exchange.
