"You do solemnly awear that you will aupport tha constitution of the United Ftatea and that you abeo lutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any forelim prince, potentate, atata or aoverelfc-nty, Hnd particularly (by name) to the pi lnre, potentate, data or sovereignty of which y it were before a cltliten or subject; that you will support and defend the constitution and laws of the United Htatea aKalnst all enemlea, foreign and domestic, and hear true faith and allegiance to the eume. Ho help you, God." After hearing thia oath recited, which he, himself, had adminlMcred to the naturalized cltUena who were the Rotary club'a special gueatg for the occasion, a Judge of our district court, called on to make eome observations about naturalization, said In ao many words: "If, by chance, our country should have to go to war and you should h called to arms and have .o fight against the country from wlthh you came, If you ahould find ourselve opposite your former countrymen and should aim high so ss to ba sura not to hit any of them, I would not blame your as y , I would not blame you, If you should fire In tha air." Whether or not Judge Searg realised what he was gnying to the clasa of new American citizen, he was teaching them a lesson in treason, and If (hey were to act on hi Insidloua suggestion under such circumstances, they would be Inviting court-martial and summary punishment. Evidently Judge Sears does not, or did not, realize that in war time failure of one company yes, of one man to do hie full duty might mean the loss of the battle and the defeat of the cause for which tba nation in warring. This Is not a quibble of words or a differ ence in politics. It is a question of what la tbe essence of patriotism for a Judge of a court of law surely must know tbat when tbe citizen Ij enlisted ss a soldier it la for him to fight 'or till flag against any and every enemy country on earth. If thia judge were holding Judicial office Id Germany, or Oreat Iirltaln, or France, or any of the warring nations of Europe, and pub licly declared that he would not blame tbe aol diers fur firing In the air, if tbelr line hap pened to full opposite to a company made up of former friends or neighbors, we do not believe hi would long sit on the bench. In our own civil war It was often family against family and brother against brother and the bonda of blood had to be severed when the uniform waa donned. No man who deliberately "aimed high" when the command waa given to flra could excuse himself by any such speejous pleading. That doctrine la the doctrine of treason and nothing else. The Ree Is aa anxious aa any to keep this country at peace with all the world and to help our newly naturalized cltlzene work out their salvation and ours in tbla land of freedom which they have adopted. But they must, aa they really do, place America first, come what may, and it la not for any of ua to plant in tbelr minda the aeeda of treason and disloyalty. Crux in the Submarine Warfare, Secretary Lansing ha clearly reatated tha American position on submarine warfare. He emphasize tbe point that warning muat be riven by a submarine warship to a merchant vessel under all condition. He does not admit tbe right of a belligerent to aink a neutral ves sel under any clrcnmatance. This revert back tc tbe case of, the Frye, tbe first of the war, which 'has been somewhat overshadowed by the more aggravated Instance of submarine activ ity. Secretary Lansing also laya great atresa on the absolute right of tbe ship's company to safety at all times. Tbe statue of armed mer chantmen Is given more full consideration and explanation, so that our attitude on this point li now unniiHtakable, and the privilege of flight and the tight to resist la Insisted upon. The sending of tbe note to all embassies and legations la intended officially to notify the world of the American position on tbe question. It should be possible to conduct tbe aubmarlne campaign effectively along human line; If not, It must be abandoned, and thl 1 the attitude of the I'nlted States. , ' Democratic Split on the Philippines. The house caucua of democrats haa been unable to agree on the Philippine bill aa it came from the aenate, and a lively issue has teen raised behind the closed doors, where the work of congress Is secretly mapped out. Many member of the majority party balk at the pro posed perfidy of the measure the president drov through the senate. These men realize the ob ligation of the United Statea to the Islanders, the ti'ore binding because it ia moral rather than igal. and they understand the dangers of fol lowing the plan proposed by Messrs.

THERE) la no known Instance of the midden or In atantaneous dlnappearance of a star. Jn fact, with tha exception of tha vanishing of atars which had first been seen to make their appearanea. I. ., "new stara." there la no certain record to prove that any reoognlied member of the starry host haa aver dlaappeared. A conalderabla number, however, have faded, while other have brightened because they belong to th large claaa of tbe variable stars. The star Megrez, at the Junction of the handle and bowl of tha "Great rlpper," for Instance, was once, on tha authority of Tycho Brahe, aa bright as the other six star con stituting the dipper figure, but at present, a you may ace any clear night. It Is relatively faint. Tha Intercatlng legend of the "Ixat Pleiad" Is, no doubt, baaed upon another Instance of a gradually fading atar. which was once plainly vtslhla to the naked eye, but has now becouia too faint to be no ticed without optical aid. There la uncertainty, how ever, aa to Jut which of tha Plelada It Is that for merly shone more brilliantly. Some think It la Plelone, other Asteropa, and still other Celaeno. Rut no one of these thru stars Is Invisible, under fa vorable circumstances, to a keen eye. Tha brilliant topaa imr Retalgeuaa, In th ahnulder of Orion, although ordinarily of mora than the ftrat muKnltude, haa occaalonally sunk considerably below (bat magnitude, Tn IM2 It waa the hrlghteat star 1n the northern hemisphere, and In IsM It again blasod un with great brilliancy. It 1 probably hundrede of tlmca greater than our aun, but Hecchl thought, from the character of Its spectrum and Ita erj-entru) changea of bright nees, that It ta approaching extinc tion. Tha Inhabitant of th planets that Retelgeuaa rules ar to ba pitied! Their sun may hurt for million of yeara yet, since the agony of a star I vastly pro longed, but already Its radaatlon hsa become ao vari able that their seasons must be In fearful disorder. Hut there la a far worse raa than that of Bertal getise, 1 refer to Mlra "the wonderful," In the con stellation of the Whale (Cetus). In a period of about 331 day this aalonlahlng alar changea a thousandfold In brlghtneaa, being at one tlm far below tha rang of the naked eye, and not brighter than th ninth magnitude, and at another time rising to a degree of brightness but a single step below tha first rank. Aa It fade It turns red, and when It brlglitens again It la like a ruby flaming Into a diamond, A flee e outburst of white light marks the culmination of each struggle of that hopeleaaly dying aun, avnd then It fndc snd slnka sgaln Into a atate of ex- hauation. Ita planets. If It ever hsd any, must long since have perished, their death,. atrli kn forms periodically Illu minated by the fitful glare, Ilka stiffened victim of a maaaacr, left near their expiring camp-fire. While no long known and recognized tar haa, far aa record a show, aver suddenly disappeared, new tar have suddenly buret Into sight, and afterward faVtd rapidly away. In 1901 an amazingly brilliant atar made Ita appearance almost In the twinkling of an eye, far as nakad-ey observation waa con cerned, at tha border of th Milky Way, In th con atellatlon Perseus. For a little while It waa nearly, or quite, aa bright a Hlrlu. It soon began to fade, and In a few months It had changed, wholly or par tially, Into a nebula, Invlslbl to th naked eye, and It still exists. Thl marvelleu phenomenon 1 generally believed by aatrononiara to hav been caused by a collision in open space between two previously Invisible stars, whose Invisibility may hav been due either to their axceaslv remoteness or to their slight brightness, Wa know that th atara are atl In motion with valooJtlee sufficient to causa an Immense outburst of heat and light If they ahould run agalnat on another, and th fact that at least fifteen new star hav been re corded since the acientlfla observation of th heaven began make It aeem probable that oolllalon do occa alonally occur. Even the near approach, without collision, of two great atara would suffice to prodiur a similar e&taa troph through the effecti of their tidal strain upon each other, In IB7I, In the tlmeof Tycho Brahe, a naw star, even mora brilliant than that of 1901, burat out, also at th edge of the Milky Way, In th constellation Caastopela. There were no tclescopea and no spectroscope thnn, and when the atar faded beyond th reach of the naked eye tha precise place that It had occupied wa lost; but Tycho, with hla Imperfect Instruments, made meaaurea of Its place which today aerve to tell ua ap proximately its location.

Who Wrote Abakeepearef OMAHA, April W.-To th Kdltor of Tha Be; The Chicago court the other day that decided that Bacon wrote the plays and sonnet of Shakespeare had all th evidence en that aid. Other than that William Rhakeapesre waa a wander fng actor in London In th time of Queen KUzabeth and that there ar six of his signature extant (beside those found lately by Prof. Harriett and hi wife of th University of Nebraska) to ordinary document on oourt records relating to property, ther Is nothing to show that he wrote the greatest of all literature) and much to th contrary. It seema that In lf97 (Hhakespear died in 1816) rthakespeare waa given a thou aand pounds and sent from ixmdon to Bt rat ford on the Avon, which was a long, long way In those days, Thl ws done In ordor to Induce him to Incur the risks entailed by allowing hi name to appear upon the play. For had Queen Kltzav bcth known that 8lr Francis ftaoon, sft erward Viscount Bt. A loan', had writ ten them, she would have cut off his head, since sha was determined to pun ish tha author of "Richard II," and alia Is reported to hsve said, "Brest thou not tht I am 'lllchard 11 " There 1 no evident tlitt Shskeie tie ever earned as much ss ten slilllkiics In any week while ne livtt m lonJn. Of the three llkeneaaea extant of Hiiuk. pear, known aa the 4tra'ford l.mt, the P'Avonant bust and tha wood rut lit the first edition of the works In HU, known as the lroehout print, not orm of them can bo called authentic. "It seema almoat Incredible," says Iuirnce, "that people with eyes to s should have looked on thl so-called portrait for 800 year without perceiving that It constat of a rldltnilous putty-faced mnak, fixed with a stuffed dummy, clothed In a trick coat." If on will notice, It will be seen tha th coat 1 Impossible, be oause th front and back aro composed of th same left arm. and the right-hand side of the forepart I obviously the left hand side of tho back part, giving a harlequin appearance to the figure. Bacon' aotentlflc works ar under hi own name, and they are I'e Augment! and Novum Organum. The flrat 1 about better advanced teaching, and th aeoond. refer to th new logic of science; that Is, th Inductlv method, aa n ad dition to th book of ArUatotl, called the Organum, which treat of peou latlv or deductive or old formal logic. On th title page of "De Aug-mentls," publlahed In 1646, and aa the frontispiece to the play of "King lUnry VII" In th Latin edition, published In Holland In Wl, th same wood cut appears. In both w aee that ridiculous coat on one of th figure of the dummy Phuke spe&re. To the left Hlr Francis Usoon stands himself in the garb of a philoso pher and with grand Roaecruclan rosnt upon his shoes to prova It. On the right we see 'him again, but tbla tlm d l eaned In the boot of tha actor and In his ift hand he shakes a apear. The turning wrheel in th center of tha picture shows th emblem of many hf the plays, Wil liam Shakespeare could not even wrlle hi own nam nd the clerk had to do It for him. It generally appears ss "Wllm Bhxpr" and then Shakespeare put hi mark aa an "x" or a blot, Borne twenty year ago the people thought Ignatlu Ionnelly of Minnesota crazy when he ald he had found the key to decipher Hhakeepeare and clulin lng the authorship for Bacon. Hut he wa right, for Bacon algna the piny in cipher often, and in very many wuya. Not only by aecret numbers, as ";V secret letter. Ilka "hlc," "hlg,'' ' "hoc," "hog," or take thla from "Klrur Henry IV": "I have a Gammon of Bacon lo be delivered a far a Charing i'ro." There are hundreds ef these ciphers that show that Bacon meant that the people ahould know that he wrote the playa and sonnets when the time came that it would not be dangerous to his rerxou.
