That vearned for friendship and got-sympathy'
could not talk with people,
People would not talk with me-
Never had looked into maidens eyes
Except in Dreams,
Never had spoken words out OF my soul
Or heard her speak in sweet sincerity
Until
When we were riding on top of the Riverside bus
By moonlight.
Foliage Aoated past rich palaces
And marble statues, in royal progress
Marched by unendngly.
A thousand cleaned IN the Milky way
And over all the mellow moonlight
Played ike the magic Of the voice Of waters
Under the willows in cool meadow-lands
And then I talked,
opened wide the well-sprng Of my heart TO her
And after first gasp Of establishment
At the undreanedof depths revealed
She came 70 me and told me Of the secret things
The hidden lovely visions Of her inner self,
Til then crushed back
To silence and the dreadfuness Of death
She the only girl in all the world
And the happiest soul that walked on earth
Or sang among the leaves, winged It's way
Triumphant in the glowing planet-path
Then home went and took my favorite paper
Turned 70 The Coming and read something like THIS;

LUSITANIA SUITS
HALTED BY PLEA
Line Asks Limitation of
Liability to S9l,296
Saved from Wreck.

The Cunard Steamship Company,
against which suits for s5,ss3,497 have
been brought BY survivors Of the Lusi-
tania disaster and heirs Of those who
persisted on the torpedoed liner, filed
in the Admiralty branch Of the Federal
court yesterday a petition for limita-
tion Of liability.
In this petition the company alleges
it had taken every precautlon pre-
scribed b. law to avert disaster. Il IS
brought out the liner was sunk, pre-
sumably BY a German submarine, in
violation of the law OF nations and of
the laws and usages of war az recog-
nized b. civilized governments, and not
through any fault OF the petitioners,
their servants or agents. Further, 1t
states that the stripping salved from
the wreck. the freight earned on the
voyage and the passage money OF the
passengers amount TO s9l ,296. Il then
asks for a limitation Of liability on
this basis.

Geek Turmoil.

Turmoil in Athens is reported in con-
sequence Of the landing Of sailors and
marines from the allied feet. A mob
Of royalists and pro-Germanists made
demonstration against the French ad.
miral and the French minister and also
before the British legation. It is indi-
Gated, however, that this manifestation
Of hostility is not spontaneous, but is
the effect of manipulation, the indica-
tion being conveyed by the dispatches
that the large proportion of the crowd
was in the pay of Teutonic propagan-
dists. The predicament of King Con-
stantine is rendered by no means less
difficult by these outbursts. On the
contrary his embarrassments are in
creased by the showing Of hostility
toward the entente allies. Every an
tsgonistie demonstration in Athens Is
calculated to increase the pressure put
upon the Greek government, and at the
present rate it will not be long before
all power is taken from the king and
ministry and vested in q provisional
government under the joint control Of
the British and French. In truth, at
this moment, Greece has practically
ceased to exist as an autonomous state
owing to the stiffness Of the govern.
ment's policy, which has temporized
while revolution was rife and postponed

sustain Itself among nations, all Of which
are prepared for war, and the most
powerful Of which just now are en-.
gagged in war. If we were to abolish
West Point and Annapolis, and brand
as potential murderers all who have been
educated in those schools and are now
in government commission, we should
invite destruction, and very shortly
meet that fate. We should make our
selves the tempting target Of all time
for the aggressive and the prepared.
We shall not do that. This latest war
has taught the world much, and taught
us in particular truths it was most i'm
portant for us to know. It has reused
US out Of lethargy past excuse, and
into action which will tell in our affairs
for years to come. Instead of abolish
ing West Point and Annapolis we shall
enlarge them, and may establish other
schools Of like purpose and character.
Instead Of turning away young men de-
sirous of army or navy training, MEM
bers Of Congress will increase their
pains to encourage applications, and see
that the best fitted applicants are re-
warded with appointment. We need the
best; and, fortunately for the country,
the material is abundant, and needs
only to be culled with care to answer
the country's fullest need.

The Danger of Stealing Rides.

The effort of the police to prevent
accidents to children by enforcing the
rule against hanging on wagons and
trucks should be supplemented by par
entail endeavors. The other day little
girl was killed here through violation
Of this rule, this being only the latest
Of long series Of fatalities due. to the
practice Of children riding on heavy ve-
hieles. Sometimes they jump on behind,
and again they catch hold Of the wagons
and trucks in order to be pulled on their
skates or bicycles. They are in peril
every moment. Boys on roller skates
also catch hold Of street cars and sew
eral tragedies have resulted.
More effective work can be done by
the parents in this matter than by the
police. They should point out clearly
to their children the grave danger Of
riding on or playing about wagons,
motors and street cars, and if they find
the children violating their injunctions
they should enforce them with discreet
punishment.
Last year a member of the police force
went about among the schools of the
city and lectured on the rules Of safety,
enjoining the children to observe them
strictly, cautioning them against dan
gerous practices. He secured their at
tention, and it can be believed that he
was instrumental in preventing many
accidents. But this sort Of work must
be kept up. Children are forgetful and
must be admonished again and again
before they learn their lessons. The
teachers in the schools can do much by
daily short talks and by utilizing as
texts for warnings the occasional fatali-
ties that result from Juvenile needless
ness. If another detail can be spared
from the police force the excellent work
Of last spring should be extended. The
police can be used in NO better way than
to prevent mishaps by ineulcating habits
Of carefulness among the younger mem
bers Of the community.
