the bank to use a pen as crutch instead

From Sailboats to Mummies
JAMES SPEYER rides horses in the
city, but he gets more fun out of his
country home near Ossining The last
time was there, he proudly pointed to
some painting work he had done in the
gardens, and offered to bet that the
village painter could not have blended
the colors to harmonic better with the
surrounding foliage.

has been kept going at high pressure. He
is not money-mad.
Henry P. Dawson, Mr.. Morgan's right

yachting, although he is bit of salt.
President Smith of the New York Central

LV Tilson was man in a thousand:
he had a contract. He wrote this play,
and after it had been sufficiently doc
tored, and the locale changed so as to fit
the scenery of recent failure and thereby
save overhead expenses, a cast was per-
suaded to leave Belasco's doorstep, and
the rehearsals began. j..
Tilson took me to see one of them. We
travelled up Third Avenue until we came
to building devoted chiefly to employ
ment agencies and Zahndrzten, and on
lower floor we found very large, very
dim room, extremely well heated by
steam and not ventilated at all. In the
immediate foreground there were discon-
solate individuals engaged in destructive
criticism; in the middle distance there
were men in shirt-sleeves; farthest north
there was low platform strictly Eliza

prised half dozen common kitchen
chairs and a dilapidated park bench rest
ing against the stained brick wall at the
extreme rear.

diffident young man faced each other

Mot necessarily he denied, frowning.

the big love scene in the second act"
Up on the stage, the most popular in
genue of the season was regarding Kelly
from the deep ambush of her eyelashes.
REALLY, don't you know it?" she
breathed. "Shall play it for your"
@Please do, said Kelly, sitting yawn;
and Miss Dunn obligingly seated herself
on kitchen chair before the park bench,
and played it for him.
ga Little Love, a Little Kiss!' whis-
pered Tilson in my ear. "She does it
mighty cleverly on the piano-if we only
had a decent juvenile!"
"Why don't you get one?" asked him.

H. H. Rogers, the late Standard Oil

muckrakers and the demagogic politicians
held the stage, that "the spirit of enter

The New Spirit in Finance


1--WE years ago great figure in Ameri-
can finance said to me:
al am sick of it all. The whole atmos-
phere is against business. We breathe
antagonism. 1t stiles you. You feel
repressed and depressed. You simply
can't go ahead and do things. l hope
shortly to retire
Contrast that with this, enunciated the
other day by the same financier: "The
people are with us now. They want to
see the United States conquer fresh COM
mercial fields. They applaud new enter
prises, especially those designed to
strengthen us on the seas and in the
worlds markets. 1t is now pleasure to
work"
This buoyant, enthusiastic feeling is
general. Few fnanciers have had long
vacations since July 81, 1914. But the
consciousness that they are swimming
with the tide of public opinion, not against
it, buoys them up and braces them up.
They can both work and play with
keener zest.
1t is a happy augury for the future of
the U. S. A.

breaks against It.

| Correspondence Of Associated Press)
TOXIC, Feb. S-The grsat sub
ject OF discussion in Toxic today is
the recent outburst in section OF
the Japanese press against the Anglo
japanese alliance. SO violent has
been the campaign of attack that
another part of the press has risen
to the defense OF the alliance and the
correspondent OF the London Times
for the far East in an article made
a detailed answer to the Japanese
criticisms. The tenor Of this article
caused as much sensation as the ORR
'ginal japanese outburst.
The japanese criticisms OF the al
lance we're largely written by pro-
fessors In the Imperial University,
headed by Prof. Tongyu Tatebe, who
is teacher OF literature. These
writer's mostly conclude that the al
lance with Great Britain is harmful
to Japan. Prof. Tatebe doubts
whether the alliance can be continu-
ed for long because there are but
few points of identity in the national
ideals Of Japan and England. He
said. "can such great honorable ma
tional ideals as those held by Japan
be found in England? Intelligent
persons will be able to decide at once
as to that. AS the national ideal of
England is individualism and selfish
ness, so the guiding principle of
England in international dealings is
also individualism and seltishness.'
And the professor continues, Jap
an stands for loyalty and justice;
Germany for loyalty and injustice;
England for selfishness and disloyal-
Ity. 1t is because of this selfishness

England.
Reference to Germany are made by
Professor Masao Kambe in an article
on "Japan's policy" in which he ar
cues for the cultivation Of the
strength Of Japan for he declares
that the only hope for Japan among
the white races Is in power. AS ne
saw the situation, II Japan is TO
maintain her position 1t will be nee
essary for her to initiate Germany
which Is country and a people who
know that without power nothing can
be done. Japan needed to cultivate
the spirit Of philosophy possessed
by the Germans and Japan need
ed that kind OF education which was
the foundation OF Germany's strength
and by which she has forced the
national spirit and produce citizens
with sane minds in robust bodies,
regardless Of expenditure or hind
erances. He said, Japan must pre-
pare either for honorable peace or
triumphant war"
Repeated attacks on tine alllance
with Great Britain and expressions
OF admiration for the success OF Ger
man arms caused an unpleasant I'M
preston among the British residents
Of the Empire, an impression that
has been voiced in the organs Of the
British community and summarized
by David Fraser, the London Times $
correspondent In an article in Toxic
newspaper. He makes the point to
find country is hard pushed in
war it is little painful for Its peo-
pie to find themselves run down by
those from whom they expect sym
PATTY. He had been assured, he
said, that the animadversions had
been written by irresponsible persons
and that the newspapers themselves
were not reliable as an INDICATION
Of public opinion. However, As the
writer's included members Of the
house of peers, university professors
and other public men he could not
fail to give some Importance to what
had been written.
Semi-ofticial Japanese newspa pers
characterized the whole controversy
as exceedingly regrettable. Said the
Japan Times, the vaporings Of the
Japanese newspapers will be forgot
ten in week. The world is today
fighting rotten organization which
will crumble and go to pieces, to be
reformed and re-made into real sys-
TEN which in its turn will make for
the good of the individual, whether
he be monarch or president, citizen
or subject. The Japanese newspap-
ers and writers who write against
the Anglo-Japanese alliance to which
Japan has been so splendidly loyal
and which has been and is to be effec-
tive in protecting British subjects
and their interests in the far East
will tomorrow be as much ashamed
we hope, of theinfantile or senile
pullings of today as Mr.. David Fraser
will regret the over-bombastic wordi-
ness Of his article under the unfor-
tunate caption, rs Japan Superior?"
