MT. Braunstein, who is well built, more than six feet tall, and about fifty years old said he was weary or wandering from one country to an- ether in Europe and being asked con- tinually why he did not go to war.

Cant. Lake and Submarines.
Bridgeport Telegram.D

(BrlQSGpOrt IGlGSra1n.)
 No man in America could have re- ceived the news of the arrival of the German submarine Deutschland with a greater thrill than Bridgeport citi- zen-Captain Simon Lake.
 The arrival of this ocean, going under-sea boat after a trip across the Atlantic ocean, in spite of the watch fitness of hostile fleets which had been warned of her coming, is com plete vindication of Captain Lakes most enthusiastic prophecies for the future of the submarine.
 Just as Captain Lake was the first to point out and demonstrate the ad- vantage of an eTen-keel submarine, so he was also the first to point out that the usefulness of the submarine both in war and in peace is not confined to its power as a carrier of tOrpedOes Tn peace it can patrol the bottom of the seas charting unknown lodges, opening up new treasure fields. Tn war, it can dive under enemy's fleets, carrying cargoes of precious food and other supplies in and out of the be- leaguered ports.
 Years ago in his lectures upon sub marines. Captain Lake pointed out to American audiences that there is no limit to the size which subma Tin es may attain, and that the greater their fuel-carrying capacity, the greater their radius of cruising. Just as the Germans were the first to see the ad- vantage of the even keel type of sub marine, they were the first among na- tions to fOresee the possibilities of large submarines operating over a wide radius. The first result of this German foresight was series of sue cessful raids upon the Warships and commerce fleets of the enemy. The second result we now have before us in the presence of the Deutschland in Baltimore harbor, after trip across tha Atlantic What the final result will be, we cannot tell; but unless England can devise a method to com bat the freight carrying suomarlnes, the blockade of Germany will De raised both in theory and practice.

The Roosevelt Army.
(New Haven Journal Courier


 Tn no other country in the world would a government think for one moment of entrusting to a private in- ! dividual the task of raising an army l and commanding it. Tn no other country that we know of is there a citizen who would think for a mOm ent of offering himself for such task. The unique position Colonel Roosevelt holds among us is, we are told, likely to force the government to accept his offer and raise him to the grade of ma jOr- general.
 The more or less general acceptance of the idea seems to spring from the ia ct that during the Civil war individ- ual citizens did raise companies which were accepted by the government and that the idea of raising an army is but the same principle raised to the tenth power. Gen. Joseph R. Hawley of Hartford rushed from his editorial chair in the office of the Hartford COUrant and raised command which was mustered into the regiment of which he afterwards became colonel. But in so far as the government pos sessed at the time officers of experi ence these small commands raised through the dOmina ting enthusiasm
 
 under their control. This is not Colo mel Roosevelt's proposal. He wants thlS army to be his own army, oH1cered as he may dictate by men drawn from the ranks of the regular army itself and by others from private life whom ne judges to be competent to be trusted, he himself to rank with the ! highest in command with the single exception of the commander-in in chief, the president of the United States. The Idea IS an amazing one but em- harrasSlng to dismiss.
 Colonel Roosevelt has had no such experience or success as a soldier as to warrant his being placed in command Of any such army. The twenty thou sand men he is said to be ready to offer to the government in case of war would without question perform a larger function under the command of trained officers than they could pos sibly perform under him. His display of patriotism we do not care to Ques- ton. 1t is genuine. The spirit of his offer is, however, hysterical. The of fer of Band Master SOusa to enlist is nearer the normal

The House of My Fathers.

(Clarence Ousley, in Sea Power.) This is the house of my Fathers
 And I am my fathers son; AS ye are to be who abide here.
 If so we be many in one. Wide are the portals and open
 To all who come hither or go, But the rule of the House I insist on, And who disobeys is my foe. My frstlings were got of much loving Far-faring on Mountain and veldt, Of Saxon and Slav, Jew and Gentle, Of Teuton and Latin and Celt. But though we be kin I disOWn you If still ye your mother prefer, Tor she let you go unregretting
 A burden and hindrance to her. I've sheltered and cOddled and fed you As seeds of my loin ye have been; Ye sit in the Seats of My Children And needs of my favor may win. For ye had abjured all allegiance To potentate, power or throne; On the sword and the faith of a SOL
 dier
 You swore unto meme alone. Let grief for the sorrows of kindred In netherlands Whelping of war, Of prayers and loving and grieving Send solace anear and afar The call of the blood is bcseeming And weeping becometh a son, But the Oath of a man is his honor Till ever his race is run So this is the word-I command it Nor Teuton nor Saxon be ye, But all who abide in this Household The sons of this Fatherland be. For here is but one Lord and Master, One country, one Flag and one
 Name,
 And they shall be alien and hated Who fail of it's veal or it's fame.

What Is Patriotism?
Christian Herald. )

What is patriotism? Love of coun- try. Is it good or bad? Tolstoy said it is bad. These are his words: ''In our day the feeling of patriotism is an unnatural irrational and harmful feeling and a cause of a great part of the ills from which mankind is suf- fering The feeling should not be Culti- vated, but should be suppressed and eradicated by all means available to rational men, Tolstoy was led to feel thus because he has been all his of patriotism. He had seen so much bad patriotism that he refused at last to believe that patriotism can ever be good.
 In this the great Russian was mis- taken. He assumed that if a man is patriotic he must believe his own country is superior to all others, and if the citizens of every state think this of their own state, then all live in a gross and harmful delusiOn. But this is reading into patriotism some thing which does not belong there. To be patriotic it is not necessary to be- lieve that ones own country is super for to all others, nor is it necessary to wish his country to get the greatest advantages and power at the expense of the advantages and power of other patriotism, however, exceedingly com- mon, and it behooves Us to be on our guard against it.

There was never any doubt that the United States government would de- clare the German submersible Deut- schland a merchant ship. There was no evidence to the contrary Now the enemies of Germany are trying to get this government to prevent re- turn shipment of nickle on board the Deutschland. They claim this metal was bought in Canada under an agree ment that it would. not be given over to the Germans. This too must fail as the United States government has entered into no such agreement. Such an agreement might exist be- tween private business enterprises. 1t is up to them, not the United States government, to keep the faith. -,

How the Shark Dealt With Its Victim
 Springfield Republican,


 No wonder that alarm has spread among the coast resorts of New Jer- sey since two bathers were, killed by sharks last week. The Philadelphia Press is authority for the statement that previous statistics show but six shark attacks along the north Atlantic coast within 100 years. The horrible character of such a death is told by Dr. Schauffler, surgeon-general of the state national guard and a member of Gov. Fielder's staff. who was called in the case at Spring Lake. He knows of no other possible way in which man could be so terribly mutiliated, and the facts related go to show this:-
 The right leg was taken off at point about halfway between the knee and ankle. The flesh was torn near the knee. The left leg was sev- cred at the ankle. The bone was stripped of flesh for some distance above the end. There was a deep circular gash above the left knee and extending down to the bone, and on the right side of the abdomen there was a piece of flesh gouged out.
 A happening like that invites un-

Hearst's American, in defending Roger Easement, compares him to John Brown.
