speak naturally.
But she felt light headed. Sick
with the shock Of It.
He bowed to her mother, shook
hands with Dad.
Lily Lou looked at the faint gray
ish blur that was Ksn's face. The
dusty fragrance Of the roses IN the
little front garden swept over her
in almost overpowering sweetness.
Now that Ken Was here, Il was
perfect. The days wsrs dreamy. rich
with warm summer fragrance, the
nights were enchanted.
Lily Lou was . burning brand Of
energy. She WAS up mixing cakes,
doing the cooking IN the kitchen,
even before her mother was out Of
bed. She no longer minded the slow

water that had to be heated on top
Of the stove. What are . few In

was never tired. She hardly cared

Her mother liked Ken. She
thought he was different from the
rest Of the summer crowd. Dad
liked him, too. The others had gone
home. Ken had fingered on for

CHAPTER SEVEN

Her mother tried to make her
happy. Told her which Of the new
people were "nice"-which weren't.
The possibility Of Lily Lou ever
being part Of the Sargent crowd
never occurred to her. They were
different. Outsiders. Sometimes
she brought home little gossipy
stories about them. How someone
had seen them, al drinking cock
tails. out Of cocktail glasses, right
on the front porch. The girls, too!
And somebody saw two Of the girls
playing tennis with shorts on, and
it certainly looked terriblel
Dad told about the crowd COM
Ing into the store for cigarettes.
Lily Lou felt rather sick. She

The Gold of Kenya.

About thirty-four years ago this
month "the soldiers of the Queen" were
preparing for war in South Africa
against the Dutch republic of the
Transvaal. The gold and diamonds i'm
beddcd in It's soil had long been bones
OF titter contention between British
capitalists, who had taken over the ex-
ploitation Of the mines, and the govern
ment of "Oom Paul. Kruger.
Finally, the inevitable clash came,
Mafeking and Kimberley were beseiged,
and for the better part Of three years
Great Britain was immersed in a des.
perate conflict that cost thousands OF
Lives and millions Of sterling before 1t
could be ended in her favor Victoria
passed away in its midst, victim, many
thought, of a heart broken by the
spectacle Of war as the climax of her
long and glorious reign.
II The Sunday Star a dispatch from
London called attention in this country
for the first time to another African
controversy over gold, in the far-away
British colony of Kenya. Recently this
remote equatorial province has as
stunned sudden prominence because OF

To the compiler of these sidelights
on the Capital scene comes the vera
cious report that in at least one Of the
principal high schools of Washington
a youths black shirt" organization
now fourishes. It Is believed to have
its counterpart in other District schools.
One lad says the rules call for groups
Of 13, and that they're required to ap-
pear at school every Friday in black
shirts-and do so. He Is reticent about
the underlying purposes Of the organi-
Zation.

Richard Wagner.

Richard Wagner has worn well
Fifty years have passed since his
death, February 13, 1888, but they
have robbed him of nothing. On the
contrary. his fame has increased, and
understanding Of his work has de-
veloped among the masses which he
particularly desired to reach. No other
composer has surpassed him. The peak
of celebrity which he had attained
while yet he lived he has kept. He
had no rivals at the end of his career
and he hes none row. There has been
musical progress since his time, but it
has been mainly along the lines he
blazed and has served to advertise
rather than to injure him.
To grasp the significance Of Wagner
it is necessary to begin with the fact
that he was a reformer. His first
teacher considered him "self-willed
and eccentric" and he seems to have
Inerited the Judgment. Perhaps he
entertained q delusion Of grandeur
was exorbitantly egocentric and ego
tistic. In his breast mighty passions
boiled and seethed. Destiny appeared
for a while to be undecided about him
hcsitating between the possibility OF
permitting him to continue his devotion
10 dramatic composition and the pos
sibility of allowing him to embrace
politics. Had fate chosen the latter

made to explain this separation; all
that can be said with finality is that
the feeling somehow exists.
It is not enough. however, to blanket
the inquiring mind, especially when
that mind belongs to the amateur
gardener, who stands at his window on
cold Winter day, just as darkness
comes on, and felicitates himself upon
having, in great Nature, such a faithful
friend and ally in his coming garden.
Whatever garden will be there, when
Spring comes, will be Natures garden,
not his.
His sense of humor is too good ever
to permit him to offer a fine bouquet
of flowers in vase at a flower show,
bearing an absurd label, Grown by T.
Jones.1
Stuff and nonsense!
Nature grew 'em, not Jones, and no
body knows that better than T. Jones,
esq.
his big vase of dahlias, If he wants to;
to listen to him talk, one might think
God Almighty had nothing to do with
it at all
Just because human being takes a
little hand in something or other does
not give him the right to pose as the
custodian Of all knowledge and power,
yet nothing is more common than for
a certain type Of man to do so.
The charitable thing Is to say that he
lacks a sense of humor.
For humor, rightly interpreted, does
not consist of wit alone, but has to do
also with a correct perspective.
It debates pride.
The man in good humor does not
take himself too seriously, as we say;
therefore he has the opportunity to
take other people as seriously as they
deserve, perhaps.
It is only fair to admit, at this juno
ture, that most of the great things in
the human world, in space and time
have been accomplished by men who
took themselves so seriously that 1t
hurt.
To have a somewhat warped view
of ones self-t; not that an excellent
way to get things done?
There is no gainsaying it; the his
tory of mankind proves it over and over
again.
At the same time, one must confess
that most of the great characters of
history must have been intolerable
bores in the everyday life, they were
so suffused, evidently, with their own
elf-importance.
viewed III TeCrOSpeCI rs IlSCOrlcdl
characters, they are interesting, some
times absurd, often amazing, occa-
sionally glorious.
AS partners In business venture,
they would have proved distinctly hard
to handle, we may feel assured.
OF all our great mcn, those who
worked with plants, perhaps, were most
free from o'erweening conceit.

to them, bear mute evidence Of hum

fusion, her teeming mysteries, her end

ness, say in such things as infusoria,

The home gardener, treading gently
in their footsteps as well as he can,
knows well enough that most of the
gardening is already done for him,
thank heaven.
The garden-his garden-was there
hundreds of years ago. Maybe it was
only a field then, overgrown with luxu-
RANT grass. There was no trouble in
those days to keep grass growing nicely.

genius Of the man. Everything that
he did was grandly, impresstvely done.
It Was characteristic Of him that he
should insist upon no less than one
hundred and sixty-four rehearsals for
the first production Of "Tannhauser. "
His dreams were majestic in their pro-
portions, and his talents adequate for
the translation Of them into finished
forms of art. The combination Is rare.
Not many men have the power to make
their most extravagant visions real.
Wagner could perform the miracle be-
cause he had the necessary endowment.
Probably no ether man ever has ex-
kted in whom there were greater or
more diverse resources of the kind he
particularly needed for the task he had
set himself. He wished to reform music
altogether, and, revolutionist that he
was, he accomplished his objective.
True, he had helpers. There were
many who were drawn into the orbit of
his star, and they served him well.
But it was wholly natural that it should
be so. There is nothing wonderful in
the circumstance that King Ludwig Of
Bavaria was his patron; it would have
been remarkable had 1t been otherwise
And Wagner has amply repaid the debt
The time may come when Ludwig will
be remembered for nothing else than
his connection with his protege.
Wagner was fortunate in many re-
spects, but he was amply deserving
A tireless worker as well as master
dreamer, he truly earned all the re-
wards which came his way. Indeed, he
fought for them when they were with
held Like Whistler in painting, he was
the leader of cause, and he cam
paigned all his days for the advance
ment of its banner. When he passed
from the scene Of his labors and his
battles, all the laurels that the nations
could bestow were heaped upon his bier.
A later generation ratifies the verdict.
The whole world-not merely the world
of music-is richer and more colorful
because he lived. Nothing finer may
be said Of any artist.

the Kavinrondo region. How valuable
the deposits are is still problematical
But they may prove as important and
extensive as the famed Rand which
Cecil Rhodes and his fellow empire
builders developed In the Boer Repub-
lie more than forty years ago.
As in that case and its tragic course
the rights of the natives are involved
These, according to bitter criticism
uttered in the House of Lords and
House of Commons at London last
week, have been gravely and unjusti-
fiably trampled upon by the British
authorities in Kenya, functioning under
the supervision Of the colonial Office
in Downing street. It was alleged by
such eminent men as the Archbishop
of Canterbury and the Earl Of Reading
that the natives land rights, though
secured to them by an ordinance Of
1880, are not being respected by the
British interests engaged in exploiting
the gold discoveries. The basis Of
the accusations raised in Parliament
is that an amending ordinance Is now
being railroaded through the Kenya
Legislature which would legalize the
depredations committed during the
gold rush."
British public opinion is deeply
aroused. The governments defense,
resting mainly on the pretended in
significance of the mining operations,
has not proved convincing. 1t is re-
freshing indication that fair play is still
a dominent, vibrant thing among the
people whose forbears wrung the
Magma Charta from King John and
laid the impregnable foundations Of
Anglo-Saxon liberty.
