Most vacations which fail are un sncceasful because they are mlsits. It la curioas that in a matter where' in dividual seeds and personal prefer ences are so important, observes Youth's Companion, the final decision should so often be allowed to rest on otHjr grounds. For the great ma jority of men and women who work, bat who have a vacation, two weeks represent the limit of time which they can devote to rest and recreation That is only one-twenty-sixth part ol the year, and most persons need all .of It, and need to use it in the wisest way. What is the wisest way? No one but the person himself can tell; and hence the folly of allowing one self to be overiufiuenced by the advice of others. One of the weekly maga zines lately contained accounts of va cations in camp, in an automobile, -on a bicycle, on foot, in a canoe, in hunt ing with a camera, in seeing Fifttt avenue, and in searching for wild flowers. Each of the articles is charm ing reading, chiefly because the writer had what he was after rest, recrea tion and a good time. The reader may easily be misled into thinking that the charm belongs intrinsically to the particular kind of a vacation which is described. It does not It belongs only to the exactness with which the vacation fits. The wisest thing one can do is to say to himself: "What is it that I should most like to do?" And if it fall within his means, and if he has only himself and his own pleas ure to consider, do that, regardless of whether anyone else would enjoy it, or whether anyone else has ever done it The hobby or diversion to which one gives his spare moments during the rest of the year is often a wise guide. It requires courage and com mon sense to disregard conventional conceptions and half-formed plans, and to follow the inclination of the moment; but the reward is nearly al ways a happy and restful vacation, and not infrequently at little cost. Need of Americans. Under the modest beading "Suits Over Small Sums" the Boston Tran script declares that the great principle of fighting for rights, no matter what the immediate material thing at stake, is a thing that the American character needs to assimilate. The Transcript says: Highly important decisions have been based on issues involving very small money considerations. The supreme court of the United States last winter, gave a good deal of time and research to a cause carried before it on appeal involving' only $24. A rail road was, in this case, the defendant It owed one of its employes, a train hand, this sum, which was attached and collected by one of his creditors. The employe contended that 'the money .was still due him, and carried the case up to the highest tribunal in the land. Our own famous Chief Justice Shaw wrote one of his most luminous expositions of legal- principles in de ciding a case which turned on the ownership of a bull calf. It is related that the bar snickered at the frequent repetition of the phrase "the said bull calf," and the chief justice rebuked the laughing lawyers by saying: "Gentlemen, you do not reflect what 1 a bull calf may be to a poor family!" Robert Browning went to law over the value of one bottle of wine, on the great principle that he would not be swindled for half a crown if he could help it The "kicker" is often the subject of ridicule, but kickers have helped the world along at times. Given a great scenic environment and the "kicker" becomes a historical per sonage of the first class. John Hamp den would never have "felt" the amount of "ship money" assessed on his estate. tf The cse of fingermarks or thumb- mnrks on checks as a means of guard ing against forgery and preventing dishonest persons from raising the fig ures on them is one of the latest nov elties in business. -There is a possibil ity that it will become more than a novelty. Apparently the first man to adapt the idea to business affairs is a merchant of Plainfield, N. J. After writing a check he places an ink im pression of his thumb over the figures, completely covering but not obliter ating them. It is manifestly impossible to raise the figures without making the interference obvious on the thumb mark. His banker has an ink impres sion of his thumb on file and compari son with the mark on the check would instantly reveal any forgery. At the Miami university commence ment at Hamilton, O., Senator Dolli ver, of Iowa, appeared as the principal speaker in the academic gown of a doctor of laws. The senator remarked that he felt as if he were in bathing suit and a peekaboo bonnet When the audience laughed Senator Dolliver turned to President Benson and said: "I have said nothing funny. I believe the people are laughing at my clothes." He then took off the gown and dropped it upon the floor, where it remained until he bad finished.

SBXMMMMlJBmMitaMiJ Mr. Reynolds- was foremost in every good work in the quarter, and fair to add that he combined with reformatory zeal the tact necessary to make friends ol local politicians, corrupt or not They all respected him for his earnestness and liked him for his jollity. The Hon. Jimmy is a good mixer.. So long as University Settlements are needed, in short, to work among the poor, so Ion is there are any poor of the East Side type, such men as Reynolds will be need ed to work there. When Seth Low became mayor Reynolds became his secretary, a post for which his tact, good fellowship, knowledge of the city and of its queer char acters personally highly qualified him. His mission in China and the east fol lowed. Upon his return less than a year ago he began settlement work.again but was called from it by the president's beef inquiry. He has for years been too busy to go Into trade or a profession. He Is fated to public life, and adorns it JIMMY IK THE LIONS 2ENr AND WHY. Why should Reynolds return to New York to mix at the president's request in-Republican poli tics? Why should Mr. Roosevelt Interfere? New York Republicans hardly ask the ques tion. On the east side of the city it is no joke but the solemn truth that the Hon. Big Tim selects the Republican as well as the Democratic district leaders. However, Mr. Roosevelt is personally popular there, and a man having his mandate, and who is besides as well known as Reynolds, can do a considerable work. From a politician's stand point it is foolish to leave a great mass of friendly voters at the mercy of leaders named by the op position. It was this one-sided system that beat Hearst for mayor last fall. The Republicans' elec tion officials obeyed the Democratic leaders. Hearst's watchers were sometimes bribed away from him; sometimes they were mere boys and were intimidated. The larger outlook of the party in the state is as bad. It ought to get a great boost from such a splendid piece of work as the Armstrong insurance bills'. But how can it, if Piatt and Odell control the machine? And there are signs that these men, long enemies, are combining in the face of the common foe, which happens to be the decent clement in the party. Odell was "caught with the goods" in the insurance inquiry. Everybody expected it to be the last of him. He probably expected it himself. Yet he is still the state chairman, and still the actual leader, cynical, epigrammatic, coarse, naked in his defilement and unashamed. Who can blame him? He could have been deposed by Gov. Higgins, but that official, a man of integrity, lacks courage and is inclined to temporize. As for Piatt, his personal stand ards are higher than those of many politicians, higher than he probably gets credit for; he cares little for money; political power is his dream. THE PRESIDENT A NEW YORKER quite as curiosly, the people do not seem to resent his "interference." What an absurdity, at best, is the present situation. Who is the "logical" candidate for governor? Hughes, the peerless investigator of insurance, though he doesn't want the job, probably would not take it. Who is the next choice? Ex-Ambassador Choate. Nominate Hughes, under the chairmanship of the man whose money dealings he exposed? Nominate Choate, under the chairmanship of the man whom he has denounced from the platform? Ridic ulous! Upon the Democratic side the situation ia simpler. Mayor McClellan has gone to Europe for a long vacation, firing a parting shot into the Murphy camp. The mayor is himself the boss of his own administration. That makes him the leading Democrat of his state. He will not be a candidate for gov ernor. But that does not limit his future. He is young. Rarely does a man hew out his line quite so close to the chalk-mark as this slender, boyish fel low has done. He was elected by Tammany In 1903 for two years, and for two years he gave New York a Tammany administration. He was elected, or rather got in by a fluke, in 1905 for four years for his own sake and in spite of Tammany, and he is now giving New York a McClellan administration. The party has an ideal candidate for the governorship in Judge Herrick, able lawyer, born politician, honorable men, gentleman of the old school, a thoroughbred; of course there is opposition to Herrick amcfig the baser ele ments of the party, but he also is the "logical" candidate. And always there is the spectre of Hearst No wonder the decent Republicans are not scolding the president for "interfering!" SOCIETY ASPECT OF THE $2,000, Abram S. Hewitt once said "It takes ten years to do anything in New York." He might have added, "and costs millions." The city is about to have, after at least ten years of talk, a two-mil-lion-doliar theater. It is to be placed upon a block of land covering a little more than an acre and in artistic beauty and richness fit decoration it will have no rival but the Paris opera house. The fashionable architects, Carrere & Hastings, have not forgotten the lesson of that opera house. Gamier, its designer, was young and unknown. He gave his design the most magnificent staircase he could conceive and fitted the rest of the thing to that. His design was accepted. The New the ater that is to be its name will have a staircase. It will have an immense foyer leading to the stair case. It will also have elevators by which the staircase may be side-stepped. Its 46 boxes will be owned in perpetuity by the owners of the building, and if all goes well, anyone of them will in ten years' time be worth as much as a seat on the Ftock exchange Certain it is that the society aspect of the new house will be as strongly marked as it is in the Metropolitan opera house, which was really built be cause the old Academy didn't have boxes enough for social display. The play is not the thing, but secondary. Tfce boxes will placate those newly rich who cannot get the best boxes at the Metropolitan. Between that home of the lyric art and Hammerstein's new opera house and 'the $2,000,000 theater with its 46 boxes society ought to be able to get along somehow for two or three years without additional opportunities for the display of white shoulders and shirt-fronts.

The Hon. Jimmy was graduated from Yale a quarter of a century ago, but has kept his youth. For eight years he was the head worker of the University settlement on the East Side. To this day no one knows the East Side better than he; no one, not even the Hon. Big Tom Sullivan, has more personal friends and acquaintances there. Indeed, where people regard the Hon. Big Tim with awe they look upon the Hon Jimmy as an ..i .! o frionri It is unnecessary to add that Up I AND WILL INTERFERE. The president has not the slightest idea of let ting things go that way. And he is not deterred, as most men would be, by precedents of non-interference. Arthur's interference for Folger was disastrous, though Arthur was a good president and Folger an able and reputable candidate for governor. This case may be different The presi dent is responsible mainly for the selection of Congressman Parsons, an honorable man of high ability who will be heard from in Washington, where he is serving his first term, as county chair man. Parsons has had to suffer all sorts of in dignities at the hands of the Odellites. It is to aid him mainly that Reynolds is to come to New York. The president was also responsible for the selection of young Jimmy Wadsworth as speaker of the last assembly. He has a curious liking, the president, for honest men in political place, and. OOO THEATER. GAINS IN VALUE. adjournment of congress Oyster Bay takes on new activity. Mr. Roosevelt is the first president in some years who has been valuable as a social factor. Mr. Cleveland never erected Marion Mass into a real summer resort even with the help of Richard Harding Davis and Joe Jef ferson. Grant was a financial rather than a social factor. Long Branch, which he favored with his society and horsemanship, would be dead as a doornail now but for cottagers of a humble sort and the automobile runs, which have revivified hotel life for a hundred miles in every direction. Hayes could not well establish a summer resort in Ohio and McKinley and Garfield had quiet country homes of the sort the average prosperous busi ness man in a country town affects. So has Mr. Roosevelt, for that matter.

To those who have watched the developments in Monte negro during the past few years has some the consciousness that she has been advancing towards modern civ ilization with leaps and bounds, and Nicholas has been largely the inspira tion and the moving spirit in it all. Nicholas Petrovic-Njegos is really a very remarkable man large in stature and large in ideas. Only twice can it be said that bis name has come prominently into public view. Once in 1898, when his daugh ter Helena married the prince of Na ples, now king of Italy, and again just the other day when he placed! the nation under a constitution and won for himself that cognomen by which Americans delight to refer to their beloved Washington. Montenegro has not marked time SPORTS AND Probably the only woman in the country who officiates as a baseball umpire is Miss Amanda Clement, a student at the Yankton, S. D., college. Miss Clement is 17 years old, hand some and healthy, and fills the on erous position of arbiter on the diamond with a grace and digni ty that" renders her decisions sat isfactory to all contestants. Her sight is of the MISS AMANDA CLEMENT. keenest, her knowledge of the game is thorough and she has jm intimate acquaintance with all the fine points and ."inside plays." Miss Clement's services are equally sought by amateurs and pro fessionals, and she has received urg ent calls, both by wire and letter, to hold the "indicator at baseball con tests. Miss Clement, however, con tinues her studies at the college and is not at all disturbed by the peculiar 'fame that she has acquired. She re ceives pay and expenses for her work on the diamond, and could make an excellent living by umpiring, but has decided not to abandon her books. iWith the money she already has earned she will be able to continue in school for a longer period than she had anticipated. Miss Clement's home is at Hudson, S. D. She received her knowledge of baseball through her brother, who is a professional player. She first started umpiring for fun, but her work at once challenged rec ognition and she has become a prime favorite. When she appears on the field she wears a natty blue suit and a short blouse, her wealth of hair being tucked up beneath a captivating cap. No hesitation marks her rul ings and when plays are made at the bases she is "right over them." Miss Clement is now teaching physical cul ture in the college summer school and TeaCakes Win London. When Thomas Charles Aga-Robartes sought election to par liament from the Bodmin division of Cornwall just before the recent liberal landslide he inaugurated something .new In the line of electioneering. He gave garden parties to the horny- handed farmers and grimy-faced delv- '' BBBBBnaj!! :''',ESSm:.ESi "'"BSSSJ wF. nnsni f::. "BBBrnl f" 'ViESSwL '''. aaBBBBBBBBBBBBV .aaVs ers in the Cornish mines. He serveiMis seat tea cakes and cream, while his oppowf nent, keeping open house in the otin familiar way at the nearest "pub." Jeered, laughed and wagered he would win. Then came the startling result The tea cakes and cream beat the beer and Bass ale. Thomas Charles Aga-Robartes was elected. But developments came fast after this. After being startled at such an unthinkable thing as being beaten by garden parties the defeated candidate charged election fraud. And even his charge was unusual because it made no mention of ballot box stuffing or the intimidation of voters. Instead he charged that the tea parties of Mr. MONTENEGRO under the rule of Prince Nicholas. In 1900 it boasted only, of two high roads. To-day there are a haJf dosen, completed or on the verge of com pletion, and the vast wooden districts of Kolashin and Andrevitza are prac tically connected by what will short ly be one of the finest highways in the world. The rivers, which were formerly crossed by fords, are now spanned by bridges. Nicholas Petrovic-Njegos has not been able to make wealth flow Into his country, but he has preached the gospel of work and of sufficiency in the neces sities of life. For some 40 years he governed his country not only as an absolute mon arch, but as the head of a family who owned the territory and whose subjects were his children. His wife is a most excellent woman, the daugh ter of a personal friend and late vice president of the council, Peter Vu kotic. Subsequent to the marriage of their daughter to Victor Emmanuel Nicholas has paid several visits to Rome,, usually in the spring, when he might have been seen wandering about the streets, as a rule unattend ed, his great height, six feet two inches, and his ancient Servian garb the cynosure of all passers-by. These visits to Rome and the conversations that he had at the court of his son-in-law gradually opened his eyes to the fact that his people, who are taught to memorize Homer and Virgil, although few of them can read or write, were almost capable of making their own laws. So he decided, last winter, to give them a constitution, which was accepted, like his other gifts, without demonstration, bnt with a deep sense of gratitude. He also abolished capital punishment granted complete liberty of speech and of the press, and even invited an Italian cartoonist. to visit Cetinje and make things lively with his caricatures. Although still miserably poor, Mon tenegro has greatly improved her financial condition in the last few years. Emigration, chiefly to the United States, has been a boon to her, for very few Montenegrans leave their home permanently, and those who go away to better their condition send money home; A curious incident marked the proclamation of the new constitution. A delegation of aged men waited upon the prince and begged him not to grant it. These men made use of the word "barbaroi" in referring to those peoples in western Europe who have constitutions. For years they had been accustomed to journey to Cetinje to lay their wrongs before their "Fa ther" Nicholas, . seated under the shadow of the famous oak tree, and they had always accepted his verdict without murmur, as something abso lute. And this new story that his word was no longer to be law filled them with incredulity and amazement. ATHLETICS is captain of the girls' basket-ball team. She is the best all-around gym nast in the school and can throw a baseball 205 feet. She is modest and unassuming and is a great favorite in this city, where her skill in ath letics, her fine voice and other at tainments are fully recognized. An eastern paper recently asserted that Miss Clement already has received 60 proposals of marriage. This, she de clares, is an absurd fabrication, laugh ingly adding that so far she has not received even one. This may be con sidered jocular, but there is no joke about Miss Clement's work as an um pire. But see her once, mask on, be hind the catcher and hear her call the balls and strikes, and at once you reach the conclusion that a young woman of skill, judgment and deter mination is performing with marked ability. The forty-sixth open golf champion ship of Great Britain was won by the present holder, James Braid, at the tournament at Muirfield, Scotland, recently.
