LIQUOR CAPTURE LEADS
TO COMPLICATIONS

1t was inevitable that prohibition enforce
ment on the sea would sooner or later embar-
rass the United States government in its for
eign relations. For the first time since pro-
hibition went into effect the state depart
ment is called upon to apologize to foreign
government for excessive zeal on the part of
enforcement officers.
The seizure of the Canadian schooner Emer-
aid, off the coast of New Jersey, led to an of
cial investigation which showed that the dry
navy chaser Hahn went eight miles out to sea,
trained guns on the schooner and brought her
into the port of New York with 1000 cases OF
whisky on board.
The British embassy promptly challenged the
right of the government to seize the Emerald
ship was we'll beyond the three-mile limit and
was not in communication with the shore with
her own boats or crew. What her skipper
might have been up to is another matter. 1t
isn't good policy to tamper with international
law. The officers of the American raider COM
mitted a serious breach of comfy between ma
tions. AS a result the government will have
to restore the whisky to its owners and COM
pensate them for their losses.
Prohibition officials emphasized the "moral
right of dry officers to seize the Emerald.
There is a sharp distinction between an obi
CATION of that kind and international law.

CLEVELAND AS A MIMIC

Oscar s. Strauss, in the Outlook.
While l am reminiscing about my relations
with Mr.. Cleveland, | will jump ahead about
10 years and speak of visit he paid me for
three days during March, 1908.
He was to deliver an address at the Henry
Ward Beecher memorial meeting in the Brook
lyn Academy of Music on Sunday evening, and
he arrived from Princeton on Saturday. He
was like boy out of school.

afterward that he would rather have seen a

audience recognized him, and heads were in
stantly turned in the direction of our box. l
mentioned it to him, but he said:
"Oh, no; they don't know me any more"
After the theatre we had q supper of deli
catessen and beer at home, which / knew he
would like, and he amused US with several
funny stories and mimicry My wife remarked
that he might have made a success on the
stage, and he replied that his friend Joe JEFF
ferson had often deplored his having missed
that profession.
He mimicked the humorous Congressman
Campbell of New York, who used to come to
the White House, and pointing to the room
occupied by Cleveland, ask the clerk, as his

bell made requests that Cleveland had to deny
as unconstitutional; then Tim would come

COFFEE SOON WILL BE HARMLESS

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Scientists have a startling way of suddenly
demolishing what generations have accepted as
established facts. For years we have been
hidden to brew our coffee in a certain way in
order to escape attracting the tannin from the
bean. Dieticans have soemnly warned as
against the effect of this astringent upon the
tender mucus lining of the stomach, and pseuuo-
medicos have preached that it is the prolific
cause of dyspepsia.
Now comes the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, which for years has been inqur-
ing into the coffee plant and making most in
teresting experiments with its effect upon the
human system, to say that there isn't any tan
mic acid in the bean whatever. There is a
component part, called bitter principle, but
it does not belong to the gallotannic type
The institutes chemists have not yet sue
ceeded in separating it for the purpose Of iden-
LITIGATION, but say that it occurs only in low
grade coffee
After long and exhaustive tests the ex-
perts year ago demonstrated that caffeine,
the most characteristic ingredient of the bean,
was not harmful to the average normal per-
son. despite the hullabaoo that the food sharps
have created, very likely without sufficient
information upon the subject. Now comes the
utter exorcsm of the demon of tannin, which
was making leather pouches of our stomach
and turning our naturally fair skins greenish
yellow. If this Is kept up the country will
have to transfer It's fears to some other article
of daily diet, let US say, bacon and eggs.

recognizing the just claims of his dependents.
Since he drew an army officers salary while
doing work that no amount of money could
ever pay for, he died poor man. Death end
ed his career shortly after his retirement, be-
fore he could accumulate a competence.
There is always some explanation that can
be offered for the failure of the American
government to do the right thing, but it aOes
seem that a pension could be awarded in this
case without either bankrupting the United
States treasury, imposing additional burdens
on the taxpayers or causing any ernbarrass
ment to the gentlemen who hold seats in Con-
gress.

TO PROTECT BACHELORS
, Chicago Herald and Examiner.

From the Chicago Herald and Examiner.
There is law In Illinois against fishing
with net, and even the gang-hook Is forbid
den in many localities.
Yet literature is permitted to circulate which
gives systematic advice to women on methods
of attracting (the word should be "captur-
ing') men.
This is hitting a man when he Is down.
Girls will find it the easiest thing in the
world to attract men, say these handbooks,
"if they only know how" That is true. And
the worst of it is, all Of them know how. The
real crying need of the hour-indeed, of the
century-is series of books which will ex-
plain to men how not to be attracted
The handbooks explain everything, from
"the secret Of the huggable dress" to chow to
arouse mans noblest feelings" The nobest
feeling in man is the belief in his own mac
pendence. But just when he has discovered
that he is ''the master Of his fate, the cap
tain of his soul,' along comes a five-foot-
three fisherman with turned-up nose, wag-
giles a casual finger in his direction, and
knocks his discovery into cooked hat.
We ought to have new set of game laws.

ANALYzING RING LARDNER

Sherwood Anderson, in the New Republic.
There is something think 1 understand
about Ring The truth Is that I believe there
is something the matter with him and have
fancy know what it is. He is afraid of the
highbrows They scare him to death. 1 won
der why, for it is true that there is often, in a
paragraph of his, more understanding of life,
more human sympathy, more salty wisdom than
in hundreds of pages of, say, Sinclair Lewis
dreary prose-and I am sure Mr. Lewis would
not hesitate to OUTAGE any highbrow in his
lair.
I said that thought I knew what was the
matter with Ring Lardner He comes from
out in my country, from just such another
town as the one in which l spent my own boy
hood, and remember certain shy lads of my
own town who always made it point to con-
sort only with the town toughs-and for a
reason. There was in them something ex
tremely sensitive that did not want to be hurt
Even to mention the fact that there was in
them real love of life, quick sharp singing
hunger for beauty would have sent blush
of shame to their cheeks. They were intent
upon covering up, concealing from everyone,
at any cost, the shy hungry children they were
carrying about within themselves.
And / always see our Ring Lardner as such
a fellow. He is covering up, sticking to the
gang, keeping out of sight. And that is all
right, too if in secret and in his suburban
home he is really using his talent for SYM
pathetic understanding of life, if in secret ne

Twain wrote and was proclaimed for writing
his "Innocents Abroad" Following the Equa-

lifetime most widely recognized for such sec
ondary work. And Mark was just such an
other shy lad, bluffed by the highbrows-and
even the glorious Mark had no more sensitive
understanding of the fellow in the street, In
the hooch joint, the ball park, and the clsy
suburb than our Ring Lardner.

PRICE ORGIES SEEM TO BE
A THING OF THE PAST

Prices of finished steel have been working
toward easier conditions, according to steel
trade journals. The price of pig iron is
tending lower still, after already easing off
from recent maximum levels. The iron con-

roads sought fuel in Alabama, usually bought

Cotton has reached I'd cents, but that 10 not
an exhorbitant price. Conditions of consump-
ton and supply considered, the cotton market
has been remarkably steady. At today's price
it is only fractionalIy above what 1t was in
June and july Wheat sells today at ID per
cent under the price of this time last year, but
corn and oats are higher. There is no gen-
eral trend in prices either up or down, but
each article seems to stand on its own bot
tom and to be governed by the rules of trade.
There is a growing disposition in the ma
jority of lines to go to market often, but what
is needed now, sell that or make it up and dis
pose of stocks on hand before taking on more.
1t began with the retail merchants during the
period of depression, and the habit seems to
have spread to the manufacturers This has
served to stabilize prices, stop runaway mar
kets and maintain steady operations.

From the Atlanta Georgian.
A six-mile tunnel is to be bored through
the Continental Divide, that twelve to twenty
thousand-foot ridge of the Rocky mountains,
which is Americas eternally snow-clad back
bone. The vertebra which has been chosen
for perforation Is James peak, Colorado.
Last spring the Colorado legislature in spe-
cia session authorized the issuance OF bonds
for $6,00O,000 to cover the cost Of drilling
the hole. commission was named and an
engineer, Maj. L. D. Blauvelt, was hired, and
all through this winter steel and dynamite will
eat its way through the living rock.
When the tunnel is completed, Salt Lake
City will be six hours nearer to Denver. One
hundred and seventy-three miles of distance
will be cut off. That shows how the present
railroads twist and zig-zag and corkscrew
and loop-the-loop in the effort to surmount
the mighty barrier of the Continental Divide.
With one tunnel in operation, competing
roads will construct others, and travellers will
presently become Injured to a six or eight or
ten-mie passage through "the hall of the

Six million dollars to save six hours shows
rather wildly the value of time in the United

THE DELTA AUTUMN

William Alexander Percy, in the Yale Review.
Give me an ebbing sunset Of the fall
With chilly flare Of cosmos-colored light,
A white winged moon In frozen. downward
flight,
Ethereal, naked trees where no birds call,
Leave me to watch my infinite, gaunt river,
Its solemn width, It's willow-purpled coil.
It's floor Of hammered brass and azure oil,
Its silence where far strands Of wild geese
culver,
And I'llno miss the hopeful, passionate spring.
Spring that knows naught of thought or mas
terful will
Or conquered grief or peace when cold winds
chill,
But sings and struts with, sunlight-dabbled
wing
And Is too sweet where men yet hate and KILL
Autumn as autumn comes In my dirn-lustered
land;
Of that be my dreaming, under the fennei-
crusted sand.
