Scientists declare that the Arctic Ice regions will extend until they annihi late our civilization. In other words, If ave do not get to the North Pole It will Come after us. A Chinaman has been arrested In Chicago for "mashing." Can there be any further doubt concerning the yel low man's advancement In the ways of civilization? The captain of the American ship Bangalore reports having seen an Ice berg nine miles long and 800 feet high, but It la too late In the year to arouse enthusiasm with a lie like that Nature always does things about sight When she creates a man with a weakness for putting his foot In his mouth, she Invariably provides hint with an adequate breadth of mouth. 1 Some newspapers are so thoroughly prejudiced against Mr. Rockefeller that they contlnnue to print bald-headed portraits of him, notwithstanding be has gone to the expense of purchasing wig.

I As showing how the human race has succeeded In climbing upward during the last hundred years It Is worth re calling that when General Pike discov ered the peak now bearing his name be said no man ever would be able to reach 1U summit Though the waste and suffering of the war of the lust half century have ibeen terrible, they were not without 'compensation. As a direct consequence of some and an Indirect consequence of others, what we regard as the benefi cent principle of democracy has been I Immensely promoted In Italy, In jFrauce, In Cuba, and progress, we may be aura, has been made possible In Russia. It la not for merely selfish reasons that the governments of the tcnodera world are very cautious as to "the beginning of disarmament Tho last generation has been remark' Able for Its development of colossal fpr jtunes. It Is well within a reasonable leaOmate to say that the combined for jtunes of alx great capitalists of to-day, I fori unes which have been the product lof the enterprise of the last thirty years, make a total of $1,100,000,000. In 1870 It would have been dlfilcult to Ixava discovered In this country six pri vate fortunes which would have aggre gated 250,uoo.u0. This simple fact Is perhaps the most striking illustration Iwhlch could bo given of the extraor dinary growth of wealth In the United ) States In a few hands. It should not Ibe forgotten, however, that the wealth lof the country has In the same time (Increased from $:0,000,(MMi,000 to $104, ,000,000,000. and the per eaplta wealth from $779 to about $1,251. A remarkable example of the skill and preclseuess of engineering achieve ments Is afforded by tho measurements Tvhlch were taken before completing the Junction cf the tunnels under the Hudson River at New York, under con struction by the Pennsylvania Rail iroad. It la shown that these struc tures, starting from the ophite shores ad meeting In the middle of the river, Ibave been Carried forwurd under the (river bed with such accuracy that they rwlll meet and fit Into each other with a Variation of a sixteenth of an Inch. In other words, hundreds of yards of sub terranean construction through mud And water have been tra verted with practically no more variation from tho prescribed lines than If they had been laid ut on an open platu. Joined with this Is another record even more cred 4tabVa. Although this sort of tunnel worit Is classed us extra hazardous and ia similar enterprises fatulltles have occurred. It Is slated that not a single Mfe has been lost In this construction. President Roosevelt's letter to Rear 'Admiral Thomas, commeudlug him for ftila stand lu the matter of the damage i cult of a sailor who was excluded from public place of entertainment be i cause of bis uniform, and inclosing a j check for $100 toward the expenses of tfao suit, calls renewed attention to the discussion Tvhlch Is fining on In tho country ovr the attitude manifested toward enlisted ineu in the uniform of the t'nited States. When soldiers or sailors are on p.irade r when. In time of public danger, they iiinivh to the scene of war or press forward to pro tect persons or properly, they win puli llc applause. Thousands have their emotions quickly stirred by the sight of the Hues of blue and the flying flags. It Is strange that the same soldiers or sailors, when out of ranks mingling with their fellow tit Irons, often full to receive tho treatment accorded to the meanest civilian. The soldier In war la a hero ; in peace. It sometimes seems as If Do one wants him around. The President makes a strong statement nlxtut the personnel of the soldiers and sailors: "There is no finer body of men In all our country than the enlist ed men of the army and navy of the t'nited (Slates, and 1 cannot sufficient ly express my Indignation nnd con tempt for any man who treats his uni form save with the respect to which It Is entitled." If all agreed with the executive on this point there would be no Insults offered to uniformed repre sentatives of army and navy. There is great difficulty in getting good men to Join the army and navy. The "rough and tough" often try to enlist, while men of fair common school education, physically qualified, are hard to get The requirements of enlisting olllcers nre severe. Not one-quarter of tho men who apply are accepted. Among thctn are some low grade men so far as personal habits go, but ns a rule they ore even In this respect up to the average of citizenship. Still the temp tations offered to them, owing to their mode of life, are trying and some of them yield easily. It Is eusy to show dlsresect to the uniform If the wearer of It forgets hit owu obligation to It, but this does not often happen. The average American seldom conies In con tact with a soldier or sailor. His opin ion Is likely to be adverse toward an enlisted man because of slanderous stories lie has heard or owing to popu lar notions falsely entertained. For the soldier or sailor as a class he has little regard, because he knows little about life In the navy, except as be has read of It In the "tales for the marines," and possibly does not believe In a standing army. It Is not difficult for the "plain citizen" to show lack of re gard for the uniform, even though he knows the wearer of It has sworn to preserve, protect, and defend the con stitution and the country, If need be, with the sacrifice of his life. With the new spirit In favor of a larger and bet ter army and navy must come more general respect for the men who make them both respectable. The attitude of the President and admiral toward the tnse of the sailor at Newport will have great effect In creating a public sentiment opposed to discrimination against any worthy mnu in the uni form of his country. NOTED LIBERAL CLERGYMAN. Moat Inflaentlal Rcllarloaa and So rial Worker la the WeU One of the most influential religious nnd social workers In the West 'Is Rev. Jenkln Lloyd Jones, of Chicago. He was born In Wales and cradled 1 n Wisconsin, his par ents having re moved to this country when he was a year old. He served In the Un ion rauks through out the Civil War, and In 1870, after his g r a d u a 1 1 on from M e a d v 1 11 e Theological Semi BET. 3. U JONES. nary, began bis first pastoral work at Wlnnetka, 111. In 1880 he went to Chi cago as general secretary of the West ern Unitarian Conference, In which ca pacity he served nine years. He also organized add was first secretary of the Western Unitarian Sunday School Society; established in 1878, with oth ers, Unity, a weekly paper, now tho organ of the Congress of Religious, and has been Its editor-lu-chlef since 1880. In this year the spirit within him demanded fuller expression than was given him us secretary of the Western Conference, and he "hired a hall and hung out his shingle as a preacher." The gospel of universal brotherhood and "freedom, fellowship and charac ter In religion" burned within him and must find expression, so he organized All Souls' Church, the services being held In a hall. At this first service there were about 20 people, but half of these never came again. Nevertheless the seed sprouted und made steady growth. In time a church building, with many of the appurtenances of a club house, was erected. Tho method of work Is that followed by all liberal churches and known as Unity Club work. This Includes a systematic course of study In literature and re ligion, science and other useful topics vith a special view to character build .g. under the direction of the pastor. The pastor of All Souls' was one of the leuders lu organizing the World's Parliament of Religions In 18'.)2 3, nnj became the general secretary of the Congress of Religious a natural se quence to the parliament; was the first president of the Illinois State Conference of Cluirltle.

Perhaps the most remarkable of nil religious colonies that accept the Itible as their only guide has been establish ed at Waukesha, Wis. In the mineral water belt the colonists are known n the "Holy Jumpers," legally they ore Incorporated as the "Mctropolltin Church Association," nnd for everyday purposes they call themselves members of the "Holiness" band. In a senxe the colony Is coinmunUtlc, but Its underlying principle Is opposed to the standards of business. No com mercial or Industrial feature Is Inter woven In the enterprise. There are eighty acres of corn nnd vegetables, but this will not support the hundreds who have Identified themselves yvlth tie movement There Is a printing estab lishment, but no profits on the books or pamphlets. "The Ixird will provide," assert the colonists, who devote nil their tlmo to religion and immaterial matters, with out providing for feeding, clothing or housing. Yet the lenders In the move ment were formerly shrewd and suc cessful business men, while the rank and file are In Intelligence above the average of the kind who usually iden tify themselves with a religious craze. For the time being the Holy Jump ers are a great attraction at Waukesha And a marvel to every sober-minded erson who vhdts them. luke M. Par son, the most extraordinary person in "religion" In the country to-day, stands at the head of the Jumpers. He amass ed a fortune In the bond business In Chicago and was regarded as a mil lionaire. He drifted from the luxuries and extravagances of city life deeper and deeper Into religious matters until finally be sold out what was left of his business and disposed of his real estate, devoting his time to spiritual matters. A Methodist with Inclinations toward "shouting," he occasionally filled the pulpits of prominent churches In Chi cago until they came a time when the exuberance of his Joy cuused him and his friends to commit disturbing ex cesses, and then they organized what was constituted a Metropolitan Church, Into which, they have put their money as well as their faith. The organiza tion lucrensed and ns they feared po lice Interference In Chicago, they moved to Waukesha, where they bought the old The Faithful Housewife: eal Platforms?" "Why HONEYMOON WHITE HORSES. Roniantle Style In Whlrh a llrlde and llrldrurooia Hod Away. After their marriage the other day a bride and bridegroom mounted white horses unj rode a way from Iagleby, Arncllffe, Yorkshire, to the lake dis trict where their honeymoon U being spent Attired In a gray habit with a black velvet collar, a cutaway coat and white waistcoat, with a white straw three cornered hat upon her head and on her hands white gauntlet gloves, the bride looked extremely picturesque. She was Miss Phoebe Johnson, daugh ter of Walter Johnson, of AruelllTo hall, and ulece of the late Sir 1-ow-thlau Bell. The bridegroom Is Will lam Astell Kaye, of Gloucester man sions, London. By reviving this form of honeymoon Journey Mr. nnd Mrs. Astell Kaye add one to many picturesque modern modes of honeymoon travel. Au opportunity was glveu also for a demonstration of good will on the part of friends, for tho cotiplo were attended through the vitiligo by three of the orldesmalds and three cavaliers. It will lie remembered that the Mar quis of Bute took his bride away from Ireland, her nutlve land, last year to Scotland In his yacht, and the yacht was reached by a tsiat rowed by men In quaint historic costume. Several sunni er river weddings have been ren dered very picturesque by the depart ure of tho happy pair lu the hunt the bridegroom lit the oars and tho bride at the rudder und motor Units ami steam launches are In request for the tame romantic purjiosc.

There are about BOO persons in ton colony, nenrly all adults, while Farson Is the leader by common consent Another lniMrtnut personage Is F. M. Messen ger, general suerintendent, who for years was general manager of the irosvenor Cotton Mills at North Gros venor, Conn., and who, sine Joining the colony, has twice refused offers of $13. WH) to manage mills. He looks after the physical procrty. F.dwln L. Har vey, vice president, has n chain of lodg ing houses in Chicago, which were pat ronized by 2,000 men every night. He gave up this business, with Its large Income, to Join the Junipers. His wife is treasurer. Heard and viewed from a little dis tance, one of the regular Sunday night church services of the Waukesha en thusiasts resembles n cross between a foot-ball rush and n red hot political convention. After the services have been oMiied with song It tukes nbout one minute to develop the demonstra tions which have glveu the colonists tne name of "Junipers." It Is doubtful If there Is an athlete who can perform the physical feats done daily by ninny of the members of this congregation. No sooner Is the fervor of the congre gation fired by the singing than ihe Jumping begins. The word Jumping is not used figuratively. Dozens and sometimes scores of the worshipers break Into a iierpendlcular dance, which consists of jumping straight up and down with most marvelous rapidity. The Jump Is not merely the raising of the Jumper on his or her toes, but a clean, lint-footed Jump with both feet several Inches from the ground. The whirling of fanatical Arab der vishes has stood for the climax of phy sical demonstration In religion. Any dervish who will lenrn how to stand flat-footed nnd lift himself by bis boot straps or sandal thongs as do the "jumpers" nt Waukesha will have nn accomplishment that will surpass his old-tiuie calling. Divine healing Is one of the most pronounced of the "Junipers' " beliefs. A distinction Is made, however, be tween surgery nnd medicine. "The set ting of a broken bone," explained Mr. Fnrson, "Is a mechanical process ind the first aid to nature. Still even In surgical cases we have had the most remarkable Instances of the power of prayer to facilitate healing."

"We often huve bonbons when there . guests to luncheon," she. said, "u: although Theodore promises uot to touch them he always does." "You might do as I did lu the same circumstances," suggested the neighbor, smiling reiuluisceutly. "What did you doV" "I carefully removed the Inside fill lug from a chocolate drop and stutTei' the shell with red pepper." "Did It work?"

That problem has to do with the future relations of the white and black races In Africa. Shall the latter be permanently relegated to a position of servitude and subjection, ns the Inevitable fate of nn Inferior race associated with one more highly developed, or shall the attempt be made to treat both on terms of equality before the law? Shall the majority of the Inhab itants of the country, hearing n proort!on of not less than twelve to one of the w hites In Natal, for Instance, be deprived of political rights by the white men who hare come Into the land to till Its fields nnd develop Its mineral resources? In a word, shall this great continent, with Ita teeming millions of blnck natives, be turned into a "white man's country," regardless of the Interests and Wishes of the blacks? That the question Is vastly more than an academic one Is ehown by the unrest among the Zulu nnd Kuftir populations of South Africa, and by the related upris ings of the Mohammedan negroes of the Niger region. So long as the country Is governed from nlmve, as In Nigeria and In the undeveloped portions of South Africa, the problem has not risen to vex the white rulers; but where the attempt to Introduce democratic self-government Is made as In the Cape Colonies It Is acute. The men tipon whom rests the real burden of the problem, the colonists, have small use for the humanitarians and the theorists. They frankly declare that the cherished doc trine of equal rights for nil men Is not for them, and that the occupation of the country was for motives with which ethlcd have nothing to do. Philadelphia Ledger. A "BLACK LIST" OF FOODS. iNE of the most Interesting thincs to the student of political history und progress Is the way In which federal statutes often stimulate State legislation and encourage the enforcement of State laws. The Lacey net for the protection of game by the na tional government has done, more than any m other one thing to secure the passage and enforcement of State game laws; and already the pure food and the meat Inspection acts passed at the recent session of Con gress have borne fruit In several States. In Massachusetts and In New Hampshire particularly the State Boards of Health have made public the results cf chemical analysis of many articles of food In daily use. These articles were bought in the open market of local grocers, Just as any householder buys them for his own use. When they are found to be adulterated or other than as represented on the labels, the State Boards of Health have published the fact naming the packer, giving a de scription of the label, and telling just what and how much 'adulteration was found. The State Boards hnve long been carrying on this work, but what is new Is the fact that the newspapers have taken much more Interest In It, nnd now print the re ports In full. The Boards of Health In many other States A TYRANT IS DEAD. Den. Trepnff Wan the Most Hated Han In Iluasla. Escaping time after time the knives and bullets of those who would have assassinated him, the man most hated by the Russian people, recently died a natural death at the palace of the Czar at Peterhof, Dear St Petersburg. He was Gen. Dlmltrl Feodorovlch Trepoff, the most detested and the most cruel tyrant who stood between the people and their hopes for reform, ne was one of the most remarkable men in GEN. DIMITRI Russia. Ills father was a foundling and never knew who his parents were, but ho rose to be n power In the em pire and the son followed lu his foot steps, rising even higher. No ninn stood so firmly for despotism ns did Dlmltrl Trepoff, and his life was con stantly In danger. He was shot nt over and over again. Three attempt to take his .life were made in one week. While none of the us-sasslns was ever success ful lu reaching hliu, they vere really the cause of his death, for the con stant worry and terror of his position broke down his health and led to his and. Trepoft was a typical Russian very tall, very strong, with cold blue eyes and a hard expression.

Withal, he was fear less and stood between the Czar and those who would have reduced the pow er of the Imperial ruler. He was the protector and savior of autocracy. He even prevented the Czar carrying out his reform ideas. He was the one bar rier between the tempestuous sea of mobs and popular passions that ragefl around the throue on one hand and the equally cruel autocracy on the other hand. He plotted for M.

THAW'S mother ruined her son when changed the will of the boy's father. latter left the sinrndthrlft $2,500 a year. Airs, innw cnungeu u to au,uw a year, is was a case of too much mothering. She put a handicap on the son's life, cheated him out of his chance. Young Thaw never had the satisfaction nor the experi ence of earning an honest dollar. He never knew the keen Joy of work. The exultation of the youth who turns from a wood box filled or a lawn mowed a Job well completed never came to him. He was denied the opportunity of lnbor with his hands or the worming out of an ldenl with his bead. The curse of Idleness waa upon him. For Idleness Is a curse. The dictum that man must enrn his brend by the sweat of his brow is a bless ing. Work Is the universal law of nature. It la the normal, sane business of man. What could be expected of a young man who had more money than he knew how to spend nnd who made diversion his only purpose? There's a limit to having a good time. When you get so far natural pleasures pall nnd If the human has no occupation the craving for new emotions begins to pull on the appetite. Self restraint Is overborne. Life is warped. Tastes are vitiated. Ex istence is artificial and false. There Is one cure for a thousand Ills useful labor. No man can live a sane existence without some healthy occupation. We are built that way.

American city la In the hannv iw N sltlon of Chicago in having a large system I of freight tunnels, by which business houses iuau euvua iium lueir ctnars ngui into cars. The tunnel company connects Its trunk tunnels with the larger houses In the down town district so that drays, teams and strikes of draymen are at an end. There are forty-five miles of tunnnel equipped with rails and overhead trolley In the district bounded by Chicago avenue, the lake, Hal sted and Sixteenth streets, constructed In the last five years at a cost of $30,000,000. The railroads are to re ceive freight from the tunnel company at a minimum of expense. The system of underground freight tunnels Is not a municipal enterprise, but was begun, It Is alleged, by a subterfuge and carried on against the wish of the city fathers. Baltimore American. RIVER "NUDGED" HIM. What DlTer Thoncht When Tugboat Sank Beside 111m. Henry Tract a diver, waa at work on the bottom of the Harlem River thbj morning when a subsurface wave near ly knocked him down. This was a new experience for Tract in spite of th fact that he has been, prowling about river and bay bottoms In a diving bell for years. He has met queer fish and he has unexpectedly conio across grew some bodies often, but tho river never pushed him before, says the New Ycrlr Post. The cause of this sensation was right at hand and very obvious, even through six feet of murky river water, way down below the level of passing keels. One keel had come down fast and hard below that level and Tract saw through the glass window of his steel mask the hull of a big boat settling In the mud right beside him and not more than his own length away. Tract didn't wait to hall the tug. Ho wasn't on that uncanny job, and tho boat arriving so suddenly without whistling, mnde him nervous. Besides, he could see a red flag, not flying, of course, but winding in a moist ghostly sort of way about the staff as the boat swayed gently when her keel first touched bottom. A red flag always means danger, and Tract didn't Investigate then to learn Just what sort of danger a red flag un der water Indicates. He Jerked the emergency call on his signal cord and was hoisted to the sur face. There he learned that the Itoat which had sunk so uncomfortably close to hint was the Harlem River. The tug wus on her way to Flood Rock nt Hell Gate for a lond of dynamite, to be used In the government dredging operations at Central bridge, near 15oth street Hence tho red flag. The trip to Hell Gate wasn't finished because the boat was rammed and sunk by another towbout, the Margaret D., off East 123d street That's where Tract was at work repairing the city's submarine water pipes to Randall's Island. Before the boat went down, her cap tain nnd crew all managed to scramble aboard the Margaret D. After Tract had shaken some of tho lend from his feet and had the top of his helmet unscrewed for a spell of natural breathing he remarked that a tugbont under normal conditions may be n very noisy, bustling sort of craft "But," he added, "tho stillest thing I ever saw under the water or above It was that ghost lioat coining down on me without n toot. It Just pushed tho river nnd the river nudged me so I looked up nnd there she was." t'aune for ralif u ., The admirer of Miss Uutterhy's mu sical talent had listened attentlv.sly, beaming with delight, while she exe tuted u Chopin polonaise with consid erable spirit, but with a divided lack: of accurate aim. .
