The Pope's Flea for Peaoe.
Something; of majestic pathos may be noted
In the figure of the pope, pleading with the
maddened temporal monarch of Europe
against what he terms the "suicide of civili
zation." If these rulers could have been guided
by tbe pope's suggestion, the wsr would never
bave commenced. Worldly ambition, lust for
power, and Jealousy of nation against nation
i have never submitted to the leadership of one
who pleads merely for Justice between man
and man, and equity In all human relations.
Twenty months of futile struggle has brought
no sign of change io Europe. Still the faith of
many millions Is being tested In Intercession
for the restoration of peace. Prayers go up
from humble heart aa well as from lofty al
tars,. In many tongues but with one trust. " Hu
man wlftjlom Is yet unable to fathom the divine
plan, and the struggle will probably go on to a
more definite aspect before reason again takes
sway over the affairs of mankind.
A New Secretary of War.
Word comes from Washington that Mr.
Wilson has chosen for successor to Mr. Garri
son the late mayor of Cleveland, Newton C.
Baker, who achieved something of public at
tention as city solicitor under tbe late "Tom"
Johnson. As mayor of Cleveland, Mr. Baker
Is reported to have been quite popular, and to
have had much success In his management of
the affairs or the growing "sixth city." He
has also had experience that gives him some
knowledge of tbe workings of the cabinet, hav
ing been private secretary to Postmaster Gen
eral Wilson, under Cleveland's second admin
istration. That the choice was announced by
the president with the approval of Colonel
House may be taken as indicating that Mr.
Baker Is politically, satisfactory to the ad
ministration. Ills Ohio connections ought to
be of service to the president, who is likely to
yet need all the help he ran get from his own
party.
Two Noteworthy Decisions.
In upholding the municipal court law and
the loan shark law against attack upon their
constitutionality, the Nebraska supreme court
hss paved the way to put In force these two
remedial measures designed more particularly
to protect the poor man from oppressions.
"Poor man's Justice" as demonstrated In the
Justice courts with limited powers and Juris
diction have long been a source of constant
complaint among ns. The creation of a muni
cipal court with more regular procedure and
promise of higher standards together with the
practical elimination of the old justice courts
is looked to to put this petty litigation on a
basis where the opposing parties are not at
such unequal advantage.
The so-called "loan shark law," Intended to
limit the exactions of the chattel and personal
loan agents, alms In the same direction. The
rank abuses of the loan shark business have
been shown up from time to time, but efforts
to put on the brakes have never been entirely
successful, so that even a partial cure of the
evils will be that much gain.
These two laws fall within the class of
what has been called "social . justice legisla
tion" and if In practice they come up to expecta
tions, they should make easier the lot of the
honest wage-earner and the person -of small
means, who happens to bo overcome with mis
fortune or entangled in the law's meshes.
Another Wonderful AdVenture.
The world still openly admires tbe dare
devil who can bring off successfully his adven
ture, and so will not stint the applause that Is
due the captain of tbe Moewe and Its crew. The
spectacular dash of that vessel from a be
leaguered port Into the open sea, and back again
with prisoners and loot to tell of Its success,
is another leaf added to the laurel wreath the
German sailors are weaving. It Is even more
notable than the career of the Emdea, hitherto
the sensation of the sea campaign. The Moewe
ran the blockade twice, flouted Johnny Bull
and raided his commerce, and Is again safe In
port to enjoy its triumph. Something about
this adventure recalls the famous swoop of
Francis Drake on the Spanish fleet In the har
bor of Cadii. All the genius for the aea hasn't
disappeared from Germany, and the method of
that practical country seems tinctured with
something of romance, else how are we to ac
count for the gallant deeds of these men of ac
tion? British vigilance has for many mooths
been expended on merchantmen, but the block
ade can not be so efficient as has been reported,
else how could a warship pass it twice without
notice. The watch on the Channel certainly
needs adjustment.
Bryan and the Administration.
. Mr. Bryan is again demonstrating his demo
cratic "regularity" by doing all he can to add
to tbe embarrassment of the administration at
a most critical time. His present course shows
more plainly than ever his utter Inability to
follow any leader, no matter how serious the
situation. He must impress his personal views
oa every act of the party, in or oat of power,
else he will be aligned with the opposition. The
armed ship, which Is really the submarine ques
tion In another form, has served one purpose.
Mr. Bryan's secret hostility to Mr. Wilson Is
now open. The president's weakness was
shown in his not accepting the chance he had
in the senate, Instead of allowing an act of
avoidance to prevail. By permitting the Gore
resolution to be tabled, the president allowed
the fight to be transferred to the house, where
Bryan is even more influential. No matter
what action la taken there, the "great com
moner" la looming up bigger than ever in his
psrty, and if Mr. Wilson runs a second time It
will be on terms satisfactory to Bryan.
The convention of mayors declared for a
naval program "that would make the United
State the first power of the world on the sea."
The distance from declaration to achievement
may be guessed by the fact that one contracting
shipyard requires thirty months to build a
modern submarine. But such details have no ef
fect on tbe reeolutlng talent of resolute mayors.
Aa advertising expert told Chicago minis
ters to turn the light of publicity oa their goods
so as to give the spectator "a punch In the
eye." One minister promptly Improved on the
hint by supplementing free salvation with free
bread. Tickling the stomach Is a decided im
provement ever punching the eye.
Why We Have Our Winter
When Earth Is Nearest Sun
Oarret . viae.
tif LEAPS p1aln why the earth 1 nearer tbe
un In winter than ra summer." la a question
propounded often.
The earth I nearer the sun la winter than In sum.
mer In the northern h amis share, but In th southern
hemisphere, th earth la farther from the wn la win
ter than In summer. The reason la two-fold. rtrt,
because the orWt of the earth In which it travel once
a year around the un 1 not a drole, but aa etllpe,
and, second, because the ails round which the earth
rotate oao every day la not upright, but Is Inclined
In such a direction that when th earth Is on on side
of the son th northern end (which w will call the
upper end) lean toward th sun. and when It la on
the opposite aid th same nd lean away from th
sun.
It 1 summer In either hemisphere when that hemis
phere lean toward th iiin, and winter when It lean
away. Now tbe sun 1 not situated In th cnter of
th elliptical orbit of the earth, but In on of th two
foci, which very ellipse he. The foon eooupled by
the sun 1 about l.too.eoo miles from th eeoUr.
It eo happen that th northern end of th earth's
axis lean toward the win when th earth Is In th
part of th IUpe which la farthest from to focus
and away from th un when th earth la In th part
of th ellipse which la nearest. Thu summer, In th
northern hemisphere, occur whn tb earth la farthest
from the sun and winter whan It 1 nearest. Ia th
southern hemisphere eiactly the opposite etate of
thing exists.
In order to Illustrate this for yourself, take a rubber
ball, or a ball of yarn, and pea a long needl directly
through It cnter. Th ball will represent th earth,
and th needle the earth's J1. Rtlnk on end of tho
needl In a flat piece of wood which can b moved
about on th aurfaoe of a table, and let th needle lean
about one-quarter of the way from a perpendicular
position, Thenet up In the middle of th table come
object, on a level with the hall, to represent the aun.
Slide the hall on It little platform around the aun
In an elliptical, or oval path, whesa longest diameter
eitenda lengthwise of the table. Keep th sloping
needle always parallel to tbe longer side of the table.
Tou will then perceive that the two hemispheres of
th earthball (north and couth or upper and lower),
alternately Incline toward th aun. Now place tb
aun a little distance away from th center of th
elliptical path, hut keep It on the line of the longest
diameter of th ellipse, and you will find that the
winter of on of the hemisphere wilt occur when th
tall Is at its greatest distance and the winter of tho
other hemisphere when the ball 1 at its least distance.
The dlfferVnce between the greatest and least dis
tances of the earth from the sun (which are called
respectively aphelion and perihelion) la equal to twice
the aun'a distance from the center of the ellipse. It
amount to about 1,000. (TO miles, the average distance
between th earth and th aun being S.ono.OOO mile.
This makes about per cent difference In the amount
of heat received by th earth at the two extreme of
Its orbit.
.The southern hemisphere has a hotter summer then
the northern, beoaue It trammer occur In perihelion;
but to compensate this, th southern summer Is a
week shorter than th northern, sine th earth travel
faster In Its orbit when It 1 nearest the sun. On
th other hand, th southern winter, occurring In
aphelion, when the earth not only travels slower, hut
la farther from the aun. Is both longer and coller
than the northern winter.
This I on of th reasons why th accumulation f
everlestlng lc around th Routh Pol I greater than
around th North Pole. Still, th southern land, ex
oept th Antarctic continent, do not suffer more than
th northern from the severities of winter because
of another compensating circumstance, which I that
there are much greater expanses of ocean fn th
southern half of the world, and they have th effeor
of moderating extreme heat and cold.
All these thing look Ilk a very careful adjustment
of conditions for the benefit of the earth'a inhabltanta,
but the adjustment la only temporary, or periodic, on
account of th fact that the direction In whloh the
earth's axis points 1 slowly changing. This change
I produced by the precession of th equinoxes, which
cause th earth'a axis to swing round in apace In
euoh a manner that the North Pole, for Inetance.
describes a circle In the sky about 47 degrees In di
ameter, the period of time required for one complete
circuit being about M.OOft year.
This, combined with the effects of a gradual change
In th direction ef th longer diameter of the earth'
orbit, or th "line of apsides," will bring about an
entire reversal of the present etate ef affairs 10,000
year hence, and then the northern hemisphere will
have It winter at aphelion and Ita summer at
perihelion. The consequences are likely to be very
serious, because th northen hemisphere ha more
land and to water than th southern, and thua there
will be no compensation for the long, cold winter
snd tb shortened, though hotter, summer. The ell
mat of New Torn may then be aa severe aa that of
Labrador. On cannot expect th value of real estate
to hold good for 10,000 year to com, and speculator
In "future" should establish relation with th pre
cession of th equinoxes and the apsides of th earth's
orbtl.

The regular trombone player of th Scottish or

Th conductor replied that h had dona fairly, but
that perhaps he would do better th next night.

-To the Editor of The Bee: The effort
of H. C Carson et al. to force Mayor
Madgett of Hastings out of th guber
natorial race should b resented by every
man who ha any regard for a square
deal and by all who are opposed to doubl
dealing, wire pulling, bluffing and Intim
idating method in politic.
It was all right that an effort should
b made to center the dry vote on one
candidate. But when four men set them
selves up a the Infallible power from
on high to say who the voters of this
state shall support, they are biting off
a whole lot more than they can com
fortably masticate.
Mr. Carson questions Madgett' ability
and attempts to belittle hi campaign ef
fort. I wculd like to ak Mr. Carson
where there I a man In this state who
ha shown greater business ability or
dealt more squarely with the people whlia
In office than William Madgelt? It Is
true that Mr, Madgett 1 not an orator.
But we do not need oratory in the gov
ernor' chair. What we want la results.
And If w get an administration at the
state house auch aa Mayor Madgett ha
given the city of Hastings, the taxpayers
and the law-abiding cltlsens of this state
will have no complaint to make.

THE CHILDREN'S HOUR.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Between the dark and the dayllrht.
When the night Is beginning to lower.
Comes a pause In the day a occupations,
That Is known a th children's hour.
I hear In th chamber above me
The patter of little feet;
The sound of th door that 1 opened,
And th voice soft and sweet
Prom mv study I se In the lamplight.
Descending the broad hall stair.
Orave Allot, and laughing Atlegra,
And Kdlth with golden hair.
A whisper, and then a silence;
Yet I know by their merry eyes
They are plotting and planning togethef
To take me by aurpriae.
A eudden ruah from the tlrwy,
A sudden raid from the hall:
By three doore left unguarded
They enter my castle wall.
They dim up Into my turret
Oer the arms and th back of ray
chair:
If I try to escape, they surround me;
They seem to be everywhere, a
They almost devour m with kits.
Their arm about me entwine.
Till I think of th Bishop of Blngen
In his Mouse-Tower on th Rhln!
Do you think, O hlue-eved banditti.
Because you have sealed the wall.
Such an old mustache a I am
I not a match for you all I
I have you fast In my fortre,
And will not let you depart.
But put you down into the dungeon
In the round tower of my heart.
And there will I keep you forever.
Yea forever and a day.
